Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 294: Broken Meridian Sword Qi
Huang Sixi followed Madam Ao to Baijian Villa.

In fact, the distance is not far, and you can get there by climbing over a mountain.

However, the Baijian Villa has now been burned down in a fire. There is no longer any trace of the densely packed buildings, only a pile of ruins remains.

Huang Sixi asked about the cause of the fire at the villa.

Madam Ao pointed to a low mountain in the manor and said, "When the divine sword was first taken out of the coffin, it was not completely forged and the blade was not polished, so it could not be sharpened. The Sword Demon took the sword to the sword pool in the manor and tried to refine the sword!"

Sword ponds are often built at places where underground fire erupts. The sword pond at Baijian Villa is even more bold, as it is directly built on the top of a small volcano. The pond contains magma and emits high-temperature heat all year round.

Madam Ao didn't want the Sword Demon to refine the sword, so she sent the guards in the manor to rush to the sword pool first, intending to seal the pool entrance. However, this angered the Sword Demon, who swung his sword and killed people.

When the Sword Demon first wielded the 'Sword of Defeat', he was not familiar with the power of the sword. He swung the sword too hard and accidentally hit the sword pool, creating a gap. This caused magma to splash out and flames to ignite wildly. The fire spread from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, and then from the foot of the mountain to the manor, until it got out of control and affected the entire manor.

Madam Ao's only son actually had an accident while he was on his way to put out a fire and moving the ancestral collection. He did not die at the hands of the Sword Demon.

Madam Ao claimed that she killed her husband and son because of this reason. She felt that it was because she had been out in public in her early years and her appearance had attracted the attention of the Sword Demon, which led to her husband being killed by the Sword Demon.

Afterwards, the Sword Demon continued to pester Madam Ao and caused a fire in Baijian Villa, killing her son. Madam Ao felt extremely guilty about this.

However, the culprit of these two murders is undoubtedly the Sword Demon. If the Sword Demon had not been determined to snatch the "Sword of Defeat" and destroy the sword pool, the fire would never have started.

While Madam Ao was blaming herself, she naturally hated the Sword Demon to the core.

Although the Sword Demon immediately moved rocks and blocked the gap in the sword pool after the villa caught fire, the fire was already out of control. Moreover, the Sword Demon's purpose in repairing the sword pool was entirely to continue forging the 'Sword of Defeat', not to save the villa.

After her son's tragic death and the burning of her family business, Madam Ao decided to take revenge on the Sword Demon. She led the surviving farmhands and warriors to the Sword Pond to besiege the Sword Demon, but was slaughtered by him instead.

In order to possess Madam Ao, the Sword Demon not only killed Madam Ao's husband, but also killed his first wife, Han Yu. However, he did not kill Madam Ao.

Mrs. Ao saved her life, but knowing that she could not defeat the Sword Demon, she dragged her son's body to the cemetery and buried it. While she was crying, she met Huang Sixi.

She finished explaining the whole cause and effect of the incident and led Huang Sixi to the foot of Jianchi Mountain.

The mountain was not high. Huang Sixi climbed several times on the Fire Qilin and reached the top of the mountain.

I saw the top of the mountain was flattened and opened up into a sword platform about ten feet in radius.

There is a circular pool with a diameter of about ten feet in the center of the sword platform, with magma surging and flames rising in the pool.

This pond is the ancestral sword pond of Baijian Villa.

By the pool stood a burly man, like an iron tower, looking quite ferocious. All the hair on his forehead was shaved, but there was hair hanging down on his temples and back of his head, giving him a rather barbaric look.

He had a hooked nose and cold eyes, staring intently at a strange black sword hanging in the sword pool. Beside him were several half-human-high square stones, on the surfaces of which were displayed hammers, pliers and other tools.

When the strange black sword was burned red by the flames of the sword pool, he clamped the hilt with pliers, placed the sword horizontally on the stone surface, and then picked up the hammer to sharpen the blade.

The tools he used were extremely simple, which he had found temporarily. Before the fire in the villa, the sword pool was equipped with complete sword-making tools.

Because Madam Ao had led her subordinates to besiege him before, he swung his sword and cut the sword pool apart, destroying the original facilities.

After Huang Sixi climbed onto the sword platform, he looked around and found that the ten-foot-wide platform was littered with dense rubble, broken blades and corpses.

There were also blazing flames filling the space between the stages. Standing on the stage felt like being in a giant furnace.

Without deep inner strength to resist the invasion of fire, it would be impossible to forge weapons or practice martial arts on the sword stage.

Of course, for a fire beast like the Fire Qilin, the sword platform has become its natural and ideal habitat.

"Another waste who wants to die? Good! That's great! I have already refined the blade of this 'Sword of Defeat', and I am worried that I can't find someone to test the sword. It would be most appropriate to use your blood and bones to sacrifice the sword!"

The sword demon suddenly put down the hammer, grabbed the hilt of the strange black sword, swung the sword, and placed the sword horizontally on a whetstone next to him.

Then he rubbed the sword back and forth, making a low "chi chi" sound.

While he was sharpening the sword, he turned his head to look at Huang Sixi. There was a murderous look between his brows, and coupled with the fierce look on his face, he looked like a wild beast that could go berserk at any time.

However, no matter how ferocious a beast is, it will subconsciously become alert to danger when it sees the Fire Kirin.

The Sword Demon was stunned when he saw Huang Sixi coming riding on the Fire Kirin. Suddenly, he burst into laughter. "This 'Sword of Defeat' of mine was forged just to annihilate the Fire Kirin. As soon as I sharpened the sword, the Fire Kirin came to me automatically. Isn't it God's will that I should slay the demon with the sword?"

When the Fire Qilin heard his arrogant words, it sucked in a fiercely with its fire mouth, and the rolling waves of fire that filled the sky above the sword platform immediately rolled back in front of it.

When the heat wave turned, it opened its mouth and spit out a burst of flames.

It usually spewed fire, and the flames could only reach a distance of ten feet. But at this moment, the waves of fire gathered in front of it, like a strong wind, sweeping the flames away and rushing to the side of the Sword Demon.

The Sword Demon was not afraid at all. He suddenly raised his sword and used the "Force to Split Huashan".

He poured his inner strength into the sword, condensing it into an icy sword energy and slashing out, passing through the middle of the flames, splitting the flames in two, and passing by his side to the left and right without hurting him at all.

His sword energy, on the contrary, remained undiminished as he flew forward into the air, slashing at Huang Sixi and Huo Qilin.

However, he was standing next to the sword pool and firing his sword, a full five feet away from Huang Sixi. The sword energy automatically dissipated before it got close to Huang Sixi.

Although the sword did not hit Huang Sixi, Huang Sixi still felt the remaining power of the sword forming a sharp wind blowing towards his face, with the force like a sharp blade cutting his face.

After the strong wind blew over Huang Sixi, it happened to blow over Mrs. Ao who had just reached the top of the mountain.

Madam Ao's martial arts skills were not good enough, and she was hit by the strong wind, and fell backward with a bang, falling halfway up the mountain.

Huang Sixi looked back at Madam Ao and had already formed a rough judgment of the Sword Demon's martial arts skills in his mind.

He thought to himself: "The residual power of this man's sword energy is so strong, his internal strength has surpassed Shi Wu Zun, but he is still not as good as a sword saint!"

He hasn't made any move yet, so the Sword Demon finds it difficult to guess the depth of his martial arts skills.

In fact, the Sword Demon has been rampant in the martial arts world for twenty years and has rarely encountered an opponent. Except for the Sword Saint and a few others, he has a very high opinion of himself and never takes other masters seriously.

When the Sword Demon saw Madam Ao's figure, he immediately shouted, "Madam Ao, is this guy the helper you invited? When I catch him, I will skin him alive. I want you to stop trying to make things difficult for me. You stay at the foot of the mountain and don't come up again, otherwise I will chop you off with my sword, which will be a shame!"

Huang Sixi heard his vicious and arrogant words and immediately retorted: "With your little ability, who else can you kill except your own wife!"

The Sword Demon's face immediately darkened: "You are quite courageous. You dare to act arrogantly against me. Today, I will open your eyes!"

He rushed forward two meters and swung his sword towards Huang Sixi.

Huang Sixi pushed forward with one palm, using the 'Buddha Embracing Face' of the 'Tathagata Palm', and instantly formed a suspended air net, waiting for the sword energy to cut through the net. While the 'Six Dragons Revolving' palm power of his other hand was already gathering momentum, he suddenly raised his palm forward and struck back, hitting the sword energy and eliminating the move without a trace.

Huang Sixi looked at the Sword Demon coldly: "I was wrong just now. You are not that capable at all. With your mediocre skills, you dare to call yourself the Sword Demon. It's a joke!"

In the past, when he dueled with others, he never engaged in verbal battles, but today he was a little abnormal.

As he spoke, he signaled the Fire Kirin to run wildly around the sword platform. Wherever it passed, waves of fire rolled wildly, and the broken stones, broken blades and corpses on the platform were all caught by the waves of fire and floated in the air. When Huang Sixi and the Sword Saint fought that day, the Sword Saint used sword energy to fight the enemy, always attacking from a distance and never fighting in close combat, which made Huang Sixi unable to launch a counterattack.

Even if Huang Sixi fully accumulated the power of "Six Dragons Spinning", he could not hit the Sword Saint.

The opponent he faced today, the Sword Demon, was also a master who was good at using sword energy, and his fighting style was exactly the same as that of the Sword Saint.

In order to use the power of the Dragon Subduing Palm to strike the Sword Demon, Huang Sixi had to first trap the Sword Demon and absolutely not let him escape from the sword platform on the top of the mountain. Otherwise, with the Sword Demon's profound internal strength, once he used all his strength to escape, it would be difficult for him to catch up even on his Fire Kirin.

Huang Sixi ridiculed the Sword Demon with words in order to provoke his opponent and make him stay on the sword stage to fight.

But although the Sword Demon was arrogant and looked down on others, he was not a reckless person. When he saw Huang Sixi wave his palm to dissolve his sword attack, the fierce expression on his face instantly disappeared and he became cautious.

These days he stayed in the sword pool to forge the 'Sword of Defeat', and never forgot to deduce the sword technique. He tried to integrate his unique 'Broken Veins Sword Qi' into the 'Sword of Defeat', and then comprehend a completely new sword qi of defeat.

However, the time was still short and he had just figured out a clue. It was impossible for him to master it.

Currently, he can only use the 'Sword of Defeat' to release sword energy, the power of which varies, and he has not yet mastered it.

He thought: "This magic sword is definitely a good sword, but unfortunately I haven't created a matching sword technique yet. The sword power is inferior to my "Break Meridian Sword Qi". It is unwise to use it to defend against the enemy!"

Thinking of this, he put down the Sword of Defeat, raised his middle finger with his other hand, pointed at the direction where Huang Sixi was running, and the true energy rushed out of his finger, and with a "swish!", a sword energy shot out.

At this time, Huang Sixi had already run around the sword stage, and broken stones and blades floating in the air could be seen everywhere on the stage.

The Sword Demon and Huang Sixi were more than three meters apart, and there were floating objects between them. If ordinary sword energy was shot out, it would definitely hit the floating objects before hitting Huang Sixi, weakening its power first.

However, the method of using "Broken Meridians Sword Qi" is different from Huang Sixi's "Six Meridians Divine Sword", although both types of sword energy are emitted from the fingertips.

Once "Six Meridians Divine Sword" is spit out from the finger, a stream of energy about a foot long will form, and after it is released, it will fly out like an arrow.

"Broken Veins Sword Qi" is similar to the last move of "Six Secrets of Proud Cold" - "Cold Blade and Icy Heart". After the internal force is released from the fingers, the true energy is always connected to the fingertips, and the sword energy can be controlled by the fingers at will.

The sword energy of the Sword Demon's middle finger is like this. He shoots out with one finger, and the sword energy extends more than three feet away, like a huge sword blade. Even if the blade hits a floating object, his internal force is always connected to the blade, which can ensure the power of the blade.

When Huang Sixi saw the sword energy coming at him, he still used "Six Dragons Spinning" to meet it and accumulate the incoming sword power.

The Sword Demon swung his sword, but was once again neutralized by Huang Sixi's palm. The sword force was like a stone sinking into the sea. This scene made the Sword Demon confused and uncertain. Huang Sixi's palm power was not strong enough to shatter his sword energy with one palm, because he did not feel any shock force.

So how did Huang Sixi resolve his sword energy?

"This kid's martial arts are really weird!"

The Sword Demon retracted his middle finger and stopped attacking.

He looked around vigilantly and discovered that the debris, broken blades and corpses floating on the sword platform had moved to a space of two or three feet outside him and were closing in on him.

He suddenly realized: "This kid wants to trap me! He is dreaming!"

He channeled his inner strength into his feet, and with a sudden stomp, his body soared into the sky.

As a result, just as he jumped about ten feet high, a huge monster suddenly jumped out from above his head. It was the Fire Unicorn, and it rushed down towards his head. He was unable to move his body in mid-air and could only raise his arms to defend himself. However, his palm was stepped on by a flaming claw of the Fire Unicorn, and his body immediately fell back to the ground.

The Fire Qilin took advantage of the rebound of his palm power and leaped into the air, jumping back to Huang Sixi.

At this moment, Huang Sixi had already used "Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage to the Lord" to its extreme. His true energy swept across an area of two to three feet, sucking together the rubble, broken blades and corpses floating outside the Sword Demon's body, forming an iron barrel wall of energy composed of stone blades, which firmly trapped the Sword Demon inside.

After the Sword Demon landed, he showed no sign of worry, but a fierce light in his eyes. He immediately held up the "Sword of Defeat" and slashed at the stone wall repeatedly.

He stretched out the ring finger of his other hand, letting the true energy surge out from his fingertips. The force from his fingers was like a torrent, shooting through the air.

He spun around on the spot again, and the energy from his fingers splashed out from his body like fireworks.

This is the move of splitting finger force in "Broken Meridians Sword Qi". Since the ring finger is clumsy in extension and retraction, it is not flexible enough after condensing the sword energy. No matter how strong the sword force is, it is easy for the opponent to dodge it. The Sword Demon splits this finger, turning the sword energy into needles, splashing at the enemy. Even though the sword force will be weakened, it will definitely hit the enemy.

The sword move 'Severing Emotions and Loyalties' used by the Sword Demon's son, the God Catcher, was evolved from this finger.

The Sword Demon first used the "Sword of Defeat" to chop the stone blade wall, and then radiated sword energy in all directions. This was to prevent Huang Sixi from making a sneak attack on him outside the wall.

But how could he know that Huang Sixi went to so much trouble to build a wall to surround him, definitely not to launch a sneak attack, but to get close to him and hit him with a palm.

'boom! ’ sound.

The 'Sword of Defeat' is extremely sharp. Wherever the sword passes, the stone wall will shatter.

However, the Sword Demon's defense was already wide open, and Huang Sixi's palm was like a raging wave, striking the Sword Demon's chest.

The moment the palm wind suddenly rose, the Sword Demon sensed the approaching danger, but he had already lost the chance to dodge. He suddenly shouted and threw out the "Sword of Defeat" in an attempt to stop Huang Sixi from getting close.

Huang Sixi slapped the sword with his palm, and with a clang, the Sword of Defeat flew up into the sky, and fell back to the ground more than ten feet away.

The Sword Demon took advantage of the momentary stagnation of Huang Sixi's palm power, flipped his hands quickly, stretched out his two thumbs, and pointed them quickly at Huang Sixi.

There are ten "Broken Veins Sword Qi" in total. All ten fingers of the Sword Demon can emit sword qi. From the thumb to the little finger, the power of sword qi is stronger than that of the other finger, so the sword qi of the Sword Demon's thumb is the most powerful.

Moreover, the Sword Demon often only performs this type of sword technique within a few feet in front of him. The shorter the distance the sword energy extends, the stronger the accumulated finger force will be, and it will be more beneficial for the Sword Demon to protect his body and not give any enemy a chance to get close and take advantage.

In the past, when the Sword Demon fought with others, anyone who rushed within a few feet of him would be torn into pieces by his sword.

But this time there was an exception.

The Sword Demon pointed his thumb forward, and the sword energy came out like thunder, drawing two powerful sword energies.

With his right finger, a flash of sword energy appeared, like a guillotine, slashing towards Huang Sixi's palm. With his left finger, a flash of sword energy appeared, tangible but invisible, attacking Huang Sixi's legs.

Huang Sixi’s palm force was unable to hit two sword energies at the same time.

He flipped his body, avoided the invisible sword energy, and raised his palm to slap the sword light and sword energy.

The sword light was instantly shattered. As the sword energy was connected to the Sword Demon's thumb, the palm force surged up, and the entire thumb exploded with a "bang!"

The Sword Demon did not say a word. As his life was at stake, he saw Huang Sixi had leaped in front of him, so he quickly raised his left finger and placed the sword energy of his thumb across his chest.

The blood energy that spread after his broken finger spread to the sword energy on his thumb, revealing the shadow of a giant sword as wide as a palm.

Huang Sixi tried to change the direction of his palm force, but the sword energy always managed to launch a defense.

Seeing that the Sword Demon was retreating continuously and was about to leave the sword platform, Huang Sixi thrust his palm forward, first dispersing the sword energy and then striking the Sword Demon in the chest.

With a sound of breaking bones, the Sword Demon's iron tower-like body suddenly flew backwards until it fell out of the sword platform and smashed a scorched stone into pieces when it landed.
