“Zheng！”
And just at this moment, with the sound of a knife ringing, Xu Taiping pulled out his knife from its sheath.
Almost at the moment when he pulled out the knife, the chest of a robber of the Eighth Hao Valley who was closest to him split open directly.
Another bandit next to him didn’t have time to react, and his neck was “swish” cut off by a knife.
At this time, the gangsters finally saw clearly that the long knife that cut off the neck was exactly the one in Xu Taiping’s hand.
“Shua！”
However, in just the blink of an eye, another two gangsters were cut in half by a single knife.
In an instant, a very strong fear arose in the hearts of the gangsters.
They wanted to escape.
However, the leading bald gangster roared loudly and said：
“Whoever dares to desert in battle, I will kill all his family members！”
Upon hearing this, the gangsters who originally wanted to flee in all directions out of fear picked up their knives again and charged towards Xu Taiping.
“Shua！”
However, Xu Taiping just gave them a cold glance, and his ghostly carried the long knife in his hand through the group of gangsters like a flowing light.
“Peng！”
When Xu Taiping’s figure stood still again, the bodies of seven or eight gangsters fell straight to the ground all at once.
“Go to hell！”
“Chi la！”
The gangster who happened to be standing in front of Xu Taiping had just raised the knife in his hand, but he didn’t expect that the blade of the long knife in Xu Taiping’s hand had already slashed diagonally across his neck.
His body was then cut into two pieces by a single knife.
In the end, only the bald-headed one of the sixteen bandits was left standing there, his mouth trembling as if he wanted to say something.
”You, you, you…”
”Shua！”
However, Xu Taiping didn’t give him this chance. The long knife in his hand cut across his neck without warning.
Then that bald head ‘thumped’ and fell to the ground.
Seeing this scene, Gu Yu at the back couldn’t help but take a deep breath and said in a low voice：
”Obviously it’s the same knife, why does the one in the hands of the Immortal always seem to be much sharper？”
He tried to put himself in the position of those bandits to see if he could take one of Xu Taiping’s knives, but just by thinking like this, a layer of cold sweat couldn’t help but break out on his forehead.
In his mind, the picture of himself being decapitated even emerged.
Although Gu Yu’s understanding of the saber technique was still too shallow to see the essence, he still felt the horror of Xu Taiping’s saber technique from Xu Taiping’s natural shooting method and the extremely sharp saber momentum.
”Xiuxiu Xiu…”
And at this moment, before Xu Taiping could put away his knife, a burst of harsh breaking wind suddenly came from the end of the street in front.
Immediately afterwards, dozens of arrows flew through the air like raindrops.
Taking a closer look, one could see that at the end of the street, dozens of archers had appeared.
Facing the dozens of arrows shooting down from the air, while Xu Taiping was brandishing his knife, he also said without looking back at Gu Yu behind him：
“Protect Immortal Yuejian and Immortal Xuanzhi well！”
Gu Yu immediately responded and drew his knife, ready to intercept the arrows shooting down from above his head.
“Ceng！ ……”
And after warning Gu Yu, Xu Taiping, without saying a word, infused his true essence into the long knife, and then slashed out towards the rain of swords all over the sky.
“Boom！”
In an instant, amidst the harsh sound of breaking through the air, a circular knife qi several zhang long suddenly burst out through the air and slashed towards the rain of arrows all over the sky.
“Peng！ ……”
Amidst the deafening cracking sound, those dozens of arrows were actually all chopped off by this knife qi.
Although there were still a few stragglers, they were all intercepted by Gu Yu behind.
“Xiuxiu Xiuxiu！ ……”
However, immediately, one could see that dozens more arrows were shooting towards them from the other end of the street.
So Xu Taiping once again consumed his true essence to condense the knife qi and slashed out with a single knife towards those dozens of arrows.
“Boom！”
Just like before, this knife qi of Xu Taiping still chopped off the vast majority of the arrows.
Just soon, Xu Taiping heard the sound of arrows being nocked and bows being drawn from the opposite side again.
The Mysterious Knowledge Master who was pounding the deadwood fish at the back upon noticing this scene immediately spoke up to remind Xu Taiping:
“Brother Taiping, they are deliberately exhausting your True Yuan. Don’t forget about that Fire Bomb Talisman！”
Xu Taiping naturally also saw this.
So he nodded, then threw the Fire Bomb Talisman into the air and wrapped it with the power of his Divine Soul.
Because this talisman was bestowed by the Dragon Slaying List, it would not be restricted by the prohibition of the Immortal Burial Ruins, and the person who cast the talisman could freely control it.
“Boom！ …”
The next moment, accompanied by a deafening, the talisman that Xu Taiping had thrown into the air suddenly exploded.
At the same time, one fist-sized fire bombs all suddenly shot towards those arrows.
“Boom！”
In just an instant, dozens of arrows were blown to pieces by those fire bombs.
And after blowing up those dozens of arrows, there were still an endless stream of fire bombs flying out from the Fire Bomb Talisman, and all of them flew straight towards the dozens of archers at the street corner.
Seeing that the dozens of crossbowmen on the street were about to be blown to pieces by this barrage of fireballs, but at this moment, accompanied by a loud “boom”, violent invisible gusts of wind suddenly rose into the air above the team of crossbowmen and rushed towards the sky full of fireballs.
”Boom！…”
Amid the huge, the sky full of fireballs was actually all pushed aside by this gust of wind.
Seeing this, Xu Taiping immediately frowned and said：
”Strong Wind Talisman？”
After seeing this scene, Xuanzhi at the back also said in surprise：
”Why do these ordinary people in Bahao Valley have Strong Wind Talismans in their hands？”
However, as soon as he said this, he reacted and immediately said with a look of horror：
”There are Dragon Slayers helping behind Bahao Valley！”
Although Xu Taiping had already guessed this, the appearance of this Strong Wind Talisman at this moment undoubtedly indirectly confirmed the guess in his heart.
”Boom！…”
After about another moment, the Fireball Talisman above Xu Taiping’s head burned into a ball of ashes after “spitting out” the last dozens of fireballs.
Xu Taiping immediately put his hand on the knife handle again.
After this last barrage of fireballs shattered, the arrows from the opposite side would surely shoot again, so he had to guard against it in advance.
But at this moment, the relieved voice of Dongfang Yuejian suddenly rang out：
”The formation is complete！”
Almost at the moment when Dongfang Yuejian’s voice fell, accompanied by a burst of “rumbling” thunder, the pattering raindrops began to fall on this street.
Then, Dongfang Yuejian shouted at Xu Taiping：
”Brother Taiping, my Rain Cloud Art is only one step away from attracting a heavy rain. You don’t have to protect us anymore！”
Xu Taiping naturally understood the meaning of Dongfang Yuejian’s words.
So he nodded, took a deep breath, and then put his hand on the handle of the knife.
”Zheng！…”
Youdaoplaceholder0 by a knife chirping sound interspersed with the sound of thunder Xu Taiping’s figure and the long knife covered with red knife energy in his hand merged into one, and finally turned into a red streamer, flying past in this broken street.
In just the blink of an eye, this red streamer stabbed into the team of archers.
”Boom！…”
In the deafening explosion sound, the chaotic and flying knife energy was like a suddenly blooming red rose exploding and scattering among the team of archers.
The next moment, the team of more than thirty archers turned into a pile of broken limbs and remains under this group of knife energy not even having time to let out a single scream.
Looking at this scene from a distance, Gu Yu’s eyes widened, and she said in disbelief：
“Is this the real combat power of the celestial being after using that true essence？”
Dongfang Yuejian, who had already fully exerted ed the Cloud and Rain Art beside him, upon hearing Gu Yu’s words immediately raised the corner of her mouth and said:
“This is not even one ten-thousandth of Taiping Celestial Being’s real combat power.”
In her opinion, not to mention in the case of using true essence, even if only using the power of qi and blood, with the peak combat power, Xu Taiping’s full-strength knife strike would be enough to level this Zhaoyun Country.
