Republic of China Era: Entering the Dao through Divine Strike

"What kind of kung fu is this? It looks like monkey fist, or maybe a crazy demon's staff technique?"

Seeing Gao Tianyun, the most notorious bandit in the capital, die so hastily.

Shen Xinlan's usually aloof expression could no longer be maintained.

Her almond-shaped eyes widened, her small mouth slightly open in an "O" shape, and her hand gripping the hilt of the sword at her waist clenched and relaxed, so excited that every hair on her body stood on end.

A glimmer of golden light silently entered Li Xin's body once again.

"Tsk tsk, she really is a martial artist. This girl is indeed full of spiritual energy and has a vigorous spirit."

In a short period of time, they actually gave me two points of faith.

This shows that if someone truly worships someone to the extreme, they can extract from them continuously in a short period of time.

Of course, it's also because Shen Xinlan is a very special woman.

If you do something else, it might be difficult to stir her emotions.

However, if one could completely overwhelm another in martial arts, earning her utter admiration, then it was entirely possible for him to become fanatical.

Her triggers seem inexhaustible, one wave after another.

Shock upon shock, admiration upon admiration, and yet it still manages to provide further credibility.

In this respect, she is even better than her elder brother, Xiaoyue, and Zhuang Hongxiu.

Those three only provided two points of confidence, and soon fell into a period of weakness, from which they have not yet recovered.

No matter what Li Xin did, he did not provide any information.

It's probably because his own spiritual energy is insufficient.

Thinking this, Li Xin casually replied, "It is indeed derived from the lightness and speed of Monkey Fist..."

Gao Tianyun is an extremely skilled agile man. Once he creates distance and focuses entirely on escaping, it will be very difficult to catch him.

Therefore, I deliberately traversed the jungle, concealed myself, and preemptively blocked his retreat.

As for the Madman's Staff Technique, I only learned a few moves because I found my older brother's practice interesting.

Li Xin spoke of it casually.

Shen Xinlan almost rolled her eyes at this, only to feel a slight itch in her nose.

She shook her head and smiled bitterly: "If you chase after him casually, Gao Tianyun, who is known for his unparalleled lightness skills, will not be able to escape."

After casually learning a few more staff techniques, he could kill this notorious bandit from the capital with a single blow...

If all the martial artists in the world heard this, they would surely be filled with shame.

Although he didn't believe Li Xin's words at all.

But she didn't delve into the details.

The image of that blow kept replaying in his mind.

Like a mountain collapsing, like a sea overturning...

That kind of wild and fierce nature is terrifying just to watch.

She slowly withdrew her right hand from the hilt of the sword, let out a long breath, and suddenly felt calm.

What's the point of comparing these two things?

If you can't beat them, you can't beat them.

Didn't I already accept it?

Seeing this now, a competitive spirit actually rose in my heart again, which was truly unacceptable.

……

The two only exchanged a few words.

Then came a series of heavy footsteps, "thump thump thump".

Turning my head, I saw two steel hammers, with heavy steps, charging towards me like two raging bulls.

The two men, more than 400 meters apart, ran all the way without slowing down.

His physical strength seemed inexhaustible.

It ran faster and faster, charged more and more fiercely.

With a roar, it sounded like two locomotives rolling in, with an astonishing momentum.

"These two are Knights Templar of the Holy See. They do not participate in church affairs on a regular basis, but are only responsible for adjudication, purges, and the extermination of heretics."

They have practiced the Holy Light Breathing Technique since childhood, and their Holy Shield and Cross Sword are extremely fierce; do not underestimate them.

Seeing the imposing force of the two charging towards them.

Shen Xinlan jumped heavily and said coldly.

Her pretty face turned cold and aloof again, her eyes fixed intently ahead.

"A Templar Knight? These must be top-tier Western fighters. But wearing that turtle shell really doesn't hinder their fighting ability?"

In fact, it does have an impact.

Li Xin took a step forward, and with a long roar, his body spun rapidly, transforming his spear into a staff.

A single, oblique strike leaves a trail of afterimages.

The impact, layer upon layer, crashed down on the neck of the first knight who charged forward.

The plate armor on the other side looked so thick it was almost like bricks; just looking at it made you not want to poke it with the tip of a spear.

But no matter what type of thick armor it is, the neck armor will always be thinner and softer.

After visualizing the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Li Xin temporarily boosted his Agility to 42.2, and his Constitution to a staggering 43.2.

This strike was fast and powerful, yet incredibly heavy.

Gao Tianyun, the former number one bandit in the capital, was beaten to the point of life and death and his bones were shattered after he only managed to block the attack.

And now?

That person reacted very quickly.

Because of its heavy body, it doesn't need to use overly delicate techniques.

He merely raised his arm slightly, shield raised, sword held horizontally...

In a critical moment, he slightly turned his body and blocked the attack between the neck and shoulder.

Boom!

A tremendous roar resounded.

The sound echoed between the guns and shields.

Dozens of sparks flew out, like stars in the dark night.

The Templar Knight shifted to one side, sliding seven or eight meters backward, completely losing control of his body.

His greatsword was shattered, and his shield was dented and deformed.

The steel armor around its neck was also badly damaged, and it spewed out a mist of blood from its mouth.

But it still managed to block it in the end.

A painful howl escaped its lips: "Divine Shield... Thorn Slash!"

This command was not a shout of his own name, but a reminder to his companion Rhodes, who was rushing towards him.

Out of the corner of my eye.

The gleaming silver spear crashed down and bounced back up, transforming into a streak of cold light that struck its companion's throat.

It's as if it doesn't need to catch its breath.

Sizzle...

The massive figure charging up from behind, however, displayed even more refined technique.

It's unclear whether they saw the result of their previous act of blocking a shot.

The man tilted his shield slightly and drew an arc to the left, barely managing to deflect and block Li Xin's spear thrust.

At the same time, the greatsword dragging behind him flashed with a cold light.

Suddenly, seven or eight sword lights, horizontal and vertical, burst forth from the left and right sides of his wrist...

The sword's momentum whistled, and a net formed in front of him.

With its height and length, and the breadth of its greatsword, it completely blocked off the area in front of it.

"This is the [Cross Strike] and the [Returning Thorn Slash]..."

Shen Xinlan was not idle at this moment either. She shouted a sentence, and her longsword turned into a streak of light, piercing the eye of a knight in front of her.

She knew that although her sword was fast, it couldn't penetrate armor.

Therefore, the priority is to avoid mistakes rather than seek merit, and to stall one person for time.

A cold light gleamed.

The knight ignored him completely, merely tilting his head slightly.

The helmet's mirrored steel armor had already blocked the sword's edge, and as sparks flew, the longsword slashed diagonally past.

Only a single mark is made on the surface of the steel.

The man steadied himself, took a step forward, and with a whoosh, his greatsword came crashing down on him.

It tore through the air, producing a dull, resonant sound.

[The sin of anger].

Helpless, Shen Xinlan stepped on the Nine Palaces formation, dodged a sword to the side, and thrust out with her backhand.

Ding……

The other party gently shrugged, deflecting the request.

Even the person's posture and gait were not affected.

"This shell..."

She was so angry that she almost started cursing.

Boom!

bang bang bang...

Just as Shen Xinlan was thinking of stalling for the other party's strength.

A loud bang reached my ears.

I felt a dull pain in my eardrum from the vibration, and a slight dizziness.

A deafening roar followed, like the beating of a giant drum.

……
