Chapter 333: Desperate Situation
Bang!
Bang!!
Bang!!!
The two of them turned into phantoms and exchanged blows several times in a row!
However, every single attack from that person with scarlet eyes was steadily received by Lin Bai with his small cauldron!
Lin Bai was not trying to close the distance between them in terms of movement techniques. Instead, he was relying on his own rich combat experience to predict where the other party would attack from the moment the other party moved. Then, he used the small cauldron to hurriedly receive the attack.
This did not only rely on Lin Bai’s keen observation ability. The small cauldron’s impregnable defence was also the key. Otherwise, he would have hurriedly blocked the attack once or twice. Once or twice was fine, but once there was an additional injury, it would acc.u.mulate bit by bit. In the end, it would become a defeat!
The two of them once again pulled apart the distance. Taking advantage of this gap, Lin Bai glanced at Little Blue.
Little Blue and the opponent were locked in a fierce battle. Neither of them was at a disadvantage, and the battle situation was confusing.
However, when Lin Bai saw Little Vlue’s momentum rising bit by bit, he withdrew his gaze.
Although Lin Bai was able to block the opponent’s attacks every time, he could not deal any substantial damage to that person. If they continued to fight like this, then it would depend on who was the first to tire out.
This was not what Lin Bai wanted at all. In order to do more than that, he needed to think of a better way.
Bang!
The two of them exchanged blows again, and Lin Bai steadily received the attack.
However, after this exchange, the opponent took the initiative to retreat. Previously, it was Lin Bai who had found an opportunity to widen the distance between them. This sudden change gave Lin Bai a bad feeling.
Hu, Hu…
On the high platform, other than the sounds of Little Blue and the opponent’s battle, there were suddenly sounds of heavy breathing…
A white smoke suddenly rose from the opponent’s body. The person’s skin was covered in sweat, and his entire body had ‘shrunk’a little towards the middle. Meanwhile, the muscles on his legs were becoming more and more firm!
Seeing this, Lin Bai could not help but have a headache.
As expected!
The person with scarlet eyes slightly exerted strength under his feet, and his figure ‘floated’ over like a ghost, stepping on Lin Bai’s chest from the front!
Just like before, Lin Bai used his long sword to block the frontal attack, intending to swing the small cauldron in his hand sideways!
However, before the small cauldron could be swung out, Lin Bai realized that this person had changed his personality. He did not act like before, but attacked head-on!
In a moment of desperation, Lin Bai could only pull back his longsword and put his elbow against the blade of the sword to block the head-on attack!
Bang!
The two collided!
Lin Bai retreated five steps, and his qi and blood surged. He could only quickly circulate his cultivation technique and guide his qi and blood to gradually calm it down.
However, the opponent clearly did not want to give Lin Bai a chance to catch his breath. He attacked consecutively, relying on his movement technique to launch a surprise attack. The angle was tricky, and the technique was ruthless.
The continuous exchange of blows, coupled with the extremely fast movement technique, only took a short while for the two of them to exchange more than ten blows. This kind of frequent exchange of blows would continuously magnify some of their weaknesses.
The difference in movement technique between Lin Bai and the opponent was being pulled apart bit by bit, not giving Lin Bai the slightest s.p.a.ce to catch his breath and think. If there was a momentary pause, then the result would be death.
Lin Bai only felt his breathing become faster and faster, and his vision became more and more blurry. However, his hands seemed to become slower and slower, and his brain seemed to become slower…
The other party’s face revealed a look of joy. He could read the changes in Lin Bai’s body and mind from Lin Bai’s face.
A sharp claw came from below and pinched towards Lin Bai’s neck. This claw’s power was extraordinary. If the weak neck was pinched, it would definitely be instant death.
Lin Bai gritted his teeth and took out a small cauldron to hit the claw. The sound of the two colliding was ear-splitting, but amidst the ear-splitting sound, Lin Bai heard a few air-piercing sounds!
He hurriedly used his sword to smash. Following that, a few metallic sounds rang out. A few small black daggers fell to the ground, and two daggers stabbed into Lin Bai’s left shoulder.
Blood splattered everywhere, and half of his clothes were dyed red!
The person with scarlet eyes revealed a delighted smile. He fought wildly since Lin Bai was injured.
In the continuous battle, a hint of weariness appeared on Lin Bai’s face, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans dripped down his forehead.
The other party opened his mouth and looked at Lin Bai’s eyes as if he was saying something to him. His expression was full of disdain.
Lin Bai stood at the edge of the platform. Just as he was about to put some distance between him and the other party, the other party suddenly exerted force on his legs. With three steps, he moved like a tiger or a leopard. With one hand, he grabbed at Lin Bai’s face, intending to smash him to the ground.
Lin Bai panted heavily. He wanted to take out his small cauldron to defend himself, but he hesitated and continued to exchange blows. There was no time for him to catch his breath, causing his movements to slow down by a beat.
“I won!”
The other party’s lips moved, but he did not make a sound. However, Lin Bai still managed to read his intentions.
Puchi!
However, the joyful smile on the other party’s face froze in an instant. The disdainful look in his eyes was replaced by confusion, and the hand that was stretched out in the air stiffened.
He slowly lowered his head, only to see a long sword stabbed into his chest. As the long sword was pulled out, fresh blood splattered everywhere!
“When did you think that I couldn’t make it?” Lin Bai’s lips curled into a smile. The tiredness and fatigue from before, as well as the heavy breathing, had completely disappeared. “Unfortunately, I was the one who acted!”
The person with scarlet eyes had an unwilling and angry expression on his face. He wanted to open his mouth and roar, but he couldn’t make a sound at all. He could only transform into a shadow and blend into the darkness.
When Lin Bai saw this, he let out a long sigh of relief and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
After fighting with this person, Lin Bai understood that it was not enough to just focus on defense. He needed to find a way to break the situation.
Very soon, Lin Bai had a sudden idea. He pretended to be very tired and could not keep up with the opponent’s speed in the repeated fights.
This kind of state appeared bit by bit. It was very natural. In addition, he was successfully ambushed by his opponent’s dagger. It completely dispelled his opponent’s worries, causing his opponent to have the mentality of ‘winning for sure’.
Once he had this kind of mentality, then Lin Bai could wait for an opportunity to attack, just like now.
Lin Bai reached out his hand and pulled out the small dagger on his left shoulder. He didn’t care about his injury and looked at Little Blue instead.
Little Blue’s opponent had a pair of iron fists and attacked from both sides like a hot knife through b.u.t.ter.
However, taking advantage of this opportunity, Little Blue hooked its tail around its opponent’s neck and used all its strength to pierce through his fists. Then, it twisted its body to the back of its opponent’s head and threw a punch with all its strength!
Bang!
A m.u.f.fled sound was heard!
Little Blue’s opponent’s knees went soft and he fell to the ground. Then, he turned into a black shadow and disappeared.
“Well done!”
Lin Bai patted Little Blue’s head lovingly. There were some injuries on Little Blue’s abdomen and back. Fortunately, the injuries were not very serious.
Then, after the two of them took the medicine, they circulated their spiritual power to catalyze the medicine to heal their injuries.
After a long time, Lin Bai opened his eyes and looked at Little Blue.
“Little Blue, come, I’ll impart you.”
