“Shua!”
Amid the harsh sound of breaking through the air, the long knife in Gu Yu’s hand suddenly and heavily chopped down towards Gou Yinhai.
Although the momentum of Gu Yu’s knife strike was extremely fierce and the speed was extremely fast, because he was using only an extremely ordinary knife technique, it was instantly seen through by Gou Yinhai. With just his hands raising the axe to block upwards, he blocked Gu Yu’s knife strike.
“Peng!”
Amid the huge collision sound, Gu Yu was shaken by the rebound force, and the long knife in his hand bounced back.
Before Gu Yu could gather his saber momentum again, he heard Gou Yinhai shout loudly:
“Take this ax of mine!”
Immediately afterwards, with a “boom”, the big ax in Gou Yinhai’s hand chopped towards Gu Yu’s waist with great force and momentum.
“Pa!”
Fortunately, in the critical moment, Gu Yu suddenly leaned his body backward, making his whole body arch back, and only then managed to narrowly avoid Gou Yinhai’s fatal ax.
“Peng!”
After avoiding Gou Yinhai’s ax, Gu Yu immediately took advantage of the counter-shock force when the saber was inserted into the ground to make his body stand up straight again, and took advantage of the momentum to chop at Gou Yinhai with the saber again.
“Peng!”
However, this time it was still the same as before, and was blocked by Gou Yinhai who raised the ax handle.
But this time, the saber in Gu Yu’s hand was not shaken away, but pressed against the ax handle and pressed down on Gou Yinhai with his powerful qi and blood strength.
“Peng!”
The huge force actually caused the bluestone slab where Gou Yinhai’s feet were standing to crack directly.
Although Gu Yu did not use the power of the divine and human strange bones at this moment, in the past two months, his body had already been baptized by the power of the divine and human strange bones, and his qi and blood strength was comparable to that of the Martial Saint Realm.
It’s just that because the power of qi and blood has increased too quickly, and Gu Yu has not practiced the saber for a long time, he has far from exerted its power.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, accompanied by a deafening air explosion sound, a violent astral qi suddenly spread out on the handle of Gou Yinhai’s talisman.
Immediately afterwards, the long saber in Gu Yu’s hand was forcibly shaken open by this astral qi.
And at the moment when the long saber in his hand was shaken open, a sentence that Xu Taiping had taught him suddenly came to Gu Yu’s mind——
“It is not only when using the Seven Kills Saber that the power of qi and blood can be turned into astral qi. As long as the power of qi and blood you release is sufficient and you can make it all condense on the long saber, you can release astral qi!”
For martial arts cultivation, whether one can release astral qi is one of the signs that a warrior has officially broken through to the Martial Master Realm.
Before today, Gu Yu had always condensed astral qi by relying on the power of the divine and human strange bones, and had never condensed it with his own power of qi and blood.
“Boom!”
Just as Gu Yu was trying to mobilize the power of qi and blood to condense astral qi, he saw that Gou Yinhai suddenly raised the ax in his hand high, once again condensed a thick astral qi on the ax, and then chopped down at Gu Yu with a fierce ax.
At this moment, the astral qi on Gou Yinhai’s ax was thick. Even if Gu Yu could take a few steps back, he would inevitably be injured by the astral qi on the ax.
Seeing Gu Yu cornered, Xu Taiping immediately furrowed his brows and placed his hand on the long knife at his waist.
In his opinion, if Gu Yu still couldn’t condense Gang Qi in this desperate situation on the verge of death, there would be no need to continue this knife test.
Ever since confirming that Gu Yu was born with the body of a divine being with extraordinary bones, Xu Taiping had never worried about the problem of his insufficient potential. The key was whether he had the understanding and determination to tap into this potential.
If he really had this determination and understanding, not to mention facing this Gou Yinhai whose combat power was less than that of a Martial Master Realm, even if he were to deal with the eight people in front of him together, the power hidden within Gu Yu’s divine body would also be more than enough.
”Come out for me…!”
And just as Xu Taiping was thinking this way, he suddenly heard Gu Yu roar with red eyes, and then, holding the handle of the knife with both hands, he suddenly slashed at the Gang Qi-wrapped axe of Gou Yinhai.
However, compared to the Gang Qi-wrapped axe of Gou Yinhai, the long knife in Gu Yu’s hand seemed very thin.
The outcome of this knife test seemed to have been revealed.
”Boom!”
However, just as the long knife in Gu Yu’s hand was about to collide with the ax wrapped in astral qi, a extremely fierce astral qi suddenly burst out from the long knife in Gu Yu’s hand.
From a distance, the blade seemed to be covered with a ball of flame.
The next moment, in the astonished eyes of everyone in the courtyard, the big ax in Gou Yinhai’s hand was directly chopped off by Gu Yu’s long knife.
“Boom!”
A ball of body-protecting astral qi immediately emerged around Gou Yinhai’s body.
But even so, Gou Yinhai was still chopped into the air by the still-undispersed saber momentum of Gu Yu, and finally fell heavily to the ground.
Seeing this scene, Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment, then let out a long sigh of relief and said in a low voice:
“Finally, this body of the divine and strange bones has not been wasted in vain.”
And after gaining the upper hand, Gu Yu immediately chased after with his knife, ready to directly kill Gou Yinhai with one knife.
But before he could get close to Gou Yinhai, he saw the valley master Mo Yu suddenly slapped Gu Yu who was rushing over with a palm.
This palm condensed with astral qi was extremely fierce.
“Bang!”
Gu Yu was slapped by this sudden palm and took several steps back in a row.
Seeing this, Xu Taiping immediately pulled out his knife with a “clang” and blocked in front of Gu Yu.
And Mo Yu sneered coldly and said:
The knife test is over.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yuejian immediately said with dissatisfaction on her face:
When Gu Yu was at a disadvantage just now, you didn’t shout that the knife test was over. Now that you Gou Yinhai is at a disadvantage, you shout it. Your Bahao Valley is really shameless!
Mo Yu didn’t care at all about Dongfang Yuejian’s abuse. He just raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at Xu Taiping and said:
This expert, what comes next is a real one-on-eight life-and-death situation. If you want to go back on your word now, it’s still in time.
In the eyes of Mo Yu of Bahao Valley, although this Gu Yu has some abilities, judging from the means shown in the previous knife test, his combat power is at most at the Martial Apprentice Realm.
And among the eight elders on their side, there are at least three at the Martial Apprentice Realm. It’s impossible for Gu Yu to have a chance of winning in a one-on-eight situation.
Seeing that Xu Taiping didn’t answer for a long time, Mo Yu suddenly raised his hand and then clapped a few times.
Immediately, the door of the ancestral hall behind was opened, and a group of women and children who were tied up in the ancestral hall appeared in everyone’s sight.
Then, I saw Mo Yu continue to speak with a cunning smile:
This ancestral hall has long been filled with pine oil by me. If you, the expert, go back on your word, I will immediately let people set fire to this ancestral hall.
Obviously, Mo Yu, the owner of Bahao Valley, had long thought of what he thought was a bargaining chip that could make Xu Taiping and the others submit.
Xu Taiping ignored Mo Yu. Instead, changing from his usual serious appearance, he smiled at Gu Yu and said:
“Gu Yu, go, put out the fire that happened sixty years ago.”
