Chapter 122 Battle Master
Chapter 122 Battle Master
This is not the first time Gu Qianbei has faced a Grandmaster.
Last time, he was injured by Cao Shaoqin, who was at the late stage of the Grandmaster realm, with just one sword strike.
This time, although Yu Canghai was also a Grandmaster, he was only at the early stage of Grandmaster.
Therefore, his swordsmanship was far inferior to Cao Shaoqin's.
More importantly, Gu Qianbei is no longer as strong as she used to be.
Therefore, facing this unstoppable sword strike, Gu Qianbei's gaze sharpened, and golden light burst forth instantly.
Protective shield!
Ding!
Yu Canghai's longsword struck the protective shield formed by golden light, producing a crisp sound.
"What?"
Yu Canghai's pupils contracted, his eyes filled with surprise.
He had never seen this kind of martial art before.
The shield formed from internal energy possesses such astonishing defensive power.
It resembled the protective aura that only a grandmaster could release.
But this is clearly not the strength of a Grandmaster.
Yu Canghai quickly took two steps back, steadied himself, and looked at Gu Qianbei with a serious expression.
"Indeed, like father, like son."
You and Yu Renyan are truly equally despicable; he attacked you, and you attacked him too.
Gu Qianbei chuckled lightly, glancing at Yu Canghai, but there was no hint of a smile in his eyes.
"Father, Mother!"
Lin Pingzhi exclaimed in surprise and ran to the injured Lin Zhennan and his wife.
"Are you all alright?"
Both Lin Zhennan and his wife shook their heads, but the sword wounds on their arms indicated that their condition was not optimistic.
They all looked at Gu Qianbei; he was their only hope at the moment.
"Young man in green robes, who exactly are you! Why are you opposing my Qingcheng Sect!"
"The number one winery in the world, Gu Qianbei."
When you're about to cause trouble, you naturally need to reveal your biggest connections.
Otherwise, wouldn't joining the number one manor in the world have been for nothing?
"The Number One Manor Under Heaven? Hmph! A force that's only been established for less than two years dares to ruin my Qingcheng Sect's plans!"
Yu Canghai sneered upon hearing this.
Gu Qianbei raised an eyebrow slightly.
Is the promotion of crabapple trees really that bad?
The title of the number one manor in the world is so prestigious that even Yu Canghai is not intimidated.
There's still room for improvement.
"The Qingcheng Sect is nothing more than a second-rate sect; what do they have to be afraid of?"
Gu Qianbei retorted sharply.
"You dare to disregard my Qingcheng Sect!"
It seems you're not planning to leave here alive today!
Upon hearing this, Yu Canghai's anger intensified, and an additional layer of sword energy appeared on the blade of his sword.
"I've never killed a Grandmaster before, and I'd like to try it today."
As Gu Qianbei finished speaking, the smile vanished from his face, replaced by a palpable killing intent.
Ten thousand leaves fly and flowers flow!
Gu Qianbei made the first move.
With a wave of his right hand, a cyan-gold internal energy leaf rapidly condensed and sped towards Yu Canghai!
call out!
The lapis lazuli leaf appeared before Yu Canghai in the blink of an eye.
Yu Canghai was startled, but his long sword did not slow down at all.
Pine Breeze Sword Technique!
The sword flashed like the wind, its speed astonishing.
Ding!
The bluish-gold leaf was sliced in two by this sword strike.
"A trivial skill!"
Yu Canghai smiled dismissively, then lightly tapped his foot, unleashing his lightness skill to quickly close the distance between himself and Gu Qianbei.
Seeing this, Gu Qianbei fell backward and activated Phoenix Dance Six Illusions!
In an instant, six afterimages spread out from his body, indistinguishable from his true form.
Every inch he moved, a fleeting afterimage would freeze, whether he turned to the side, raised an arm, or spun around.
The six illusory figures overlapped one after another, making it impossible to distinguish which was real and which was fake.
Yu Canghai's pupils contracted slightly, not expecting Gu Qianbei's lightness skill to be so amazing.
The sword strike, unsurprisingly, missed its mark.
"No matter how fast your lightness skill is, it can't compare to the speed of my sword! A sky full of pine shadows!"
As Yu Canghai swung his longsword, he created a series of sword shadows.
The sheer number of sword shadows surpassed even the afterimages conjured by Gu Qianbei.
In an instant, sword energy rushed towards them, completely annihilating the afterimages formed by the six phantoms of Phoenix Dance!
Gu Qianbei was slightly surprised. He lightly stepped forward and quickly escaped the area covered by the sword shadows.
"What a fast sword. Yu Canghai is not known for his fast swordsmanship, but his swordsmanship is also so fast."
It seems I underestimated the Grandmaster's strength.
Gu Qianbei thought to himself.
Seeing Gu Qianbei being suppressed, Lin Zhennan's heart tightened.
"Is Heaven determined to destroy the Lin family?"
But the Qingcheng Sect disciples didn't give him any more time to watch; they had already attacked with their swords drawn.
Seeing this, Lin Zhennan had no choice but to drag his injured body back into the battle.
"Hmph, let's see how long you can hide!"
Yu Canghai sneered repeatedly, preparing to draw his sword again.
But Gu Qianbei took off the Cangguang Gourd from his waist.
This action startled Yu Canghai.
"What's this kid up to? Could there be some kind of hidden weapon in that gourd?"
Yu Canghai thought to himself, becoming secretly on guard.
But Gu Qianbei simply pulled out the cork and took a sip of wine.
"How wonderful, how wonderful!"
Gu Qianbei laughed heartily.
"You brat, you tricked me! Drinking at a time like this!"
Yu Canghai was furious.
I thought Gu Qianbei was going to unleash some amazing move, but it turns out he just got a craving for alcohol.
It’s tolerable, it’s unbearable!
Yu Canghai charged directly at Gu Qianbei, unleashing the full power of his Pine Breeze Sword Technique.
He was going to kill Gu Qianbei with a single sword strike!
The sword has arrived.
Gu Qianbei slightly raised her eyes, a smile appearing on her lips.
The sword energy carried a breeze, causing his clothes to flutter.
The next moment, the real body and the afterimage swayed simultaneously, like a phoenix soaring through the sky, its movements revealing extreme speed.
He easily dodged Yu Canghai's extremely fast sword strike, and in the process, he also took the time to hang the Cangguang Gourd back on his waist.
"impossible!"
Yu Canghai was taken aback, because he discovered that Gu Qianbei's speed was twice as fast as before!
Could it be that the opponent didn't use their full strength just now?
Is this his true speed?
Little did Yu Canghai know that Gu Qianbei's sip of wine, named "Looking at the Bright Moon," could increase speed by 100%!
As Gu Qianbei dodged, Yu Canghai's body swept past him, and he immediately grabbed Yu Canghai's right arm.
Dislocated bone!
Just as the finger force was about to erupt, Yu Canghai reacted instantly.
He unleashed his inner strength, breaking free from Gu Qianbei's dislocated hand technique. At the same time, he condensed his left hand into a palm and launched another attack.
This palm strike is called the Heart-Shattering Palm!
"Go to hell, kid!"
A cruel smile appeared on Yu Canghai's face.
The palm strike was quick, but Gu Qianbei was even faster.
He barely moved half a step before narrowly avoiding the palm strike.
He then leaped, leaving a trail of afterimages in his wake. His figure darted and twisted in mid-air, leaving several more afterimages.
To onlookers, it seemed as if Gu Qianbei's figure was everywhere, omnipresent in all directions.
Once Gu Qianbei's figure landed, the several illusory figures slowly faded and dissipated.
He was already standing several feet away, with no trace of movement around him, as if he had never moved an inch.
"How could this kid be so fast?"
Yu Canghai roared in anger and swung his sword again to attack.
Gu Qianbei, however, took out a cup from somewhere and threw it directly at him.
call out!
The cup suddenly appeared, forcing Yu Canghai to stop. He then unleashed a sword strike, sending the cup flying.
"Using a wine glass as a concealed weapon is making you a very conspicuous target!"
Yu Canghai sneered.
But then a strange thing happened.
The cup that had been slashed away somehow made a strange arc in mid-air and landed back in the hand of the rapidly approaching Gu Qianbei.
The next moment, a crimson longsword emerged instantly from the cup.
Eclipse Sword Technique!
This sword, accompanied by a sky full of flames and with extreme speed, slashed down towards Yu Canghai!
