The ground collapsed, and Hao Yun was nearly knocked down.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the King of Nanshan pressed forward, smashing his spiked club towards Hao Yun's head.
Dodging the attack, Hao Yun combined his two swords and slashed at the neck of the King of Nanshan.
clang!
With a crisp sound, the spiked club blocked the Yin-Yang Twin Swords, and at the same time, the King of Nanshan stomped the ground once more.
Hao Yun stumbled and nearly fell.
"Hahaha, die!"
The King of Nanshan swung his spiked club, striking Hao Yun in the chest and sending him flying.
This move by the King of Nanshan has always been effective. His supernatural skill is the Stomp, which allows him to manipulate the earth and make it impossible for his opponent to stand.
After crashing through several large trees, Hao Yun finally steadied himself, half-squatting on the ground, trying to calm his churning blood and qi.
Fortunately, Hao Yun had good physical fitness and many protective magic treasures, otherwise that attack would have taken his life.
The jade pendant hanging on Hao Yun's waist shattered. This jade pendant had just replaced Hao Yun and blocked the additional damage from the opponent's spiked club magic weapon.
Standing up straight, Hao Yun's expression became much more serious. He had seen many things from the attack just now.
The King of Nanshan possesses a special ability that makes it impossible for him to maintain his balance. At the same time, the spiked club in his hand is a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure, which infuses a special energy into his attacks on enemies.
"You're still alive? Then come back again!"
Seeing that Hao Yun could still get up, the King of Nanshan's eyes revealed a hint of excitement, and he charged over with high fighting spirit.
This time, Hao Yun was much more alert. Instead of engaging in close combat with the King of Nanshan, he ascended into the air on his sword, took out the Golden Dragon Seal, and threw it out.
The golden dragon seal swelled in the air as it caught the wind, growing to the size of a small mountain in the blink of an eye.
"Get down!"
With a roar, Hao Yun activated the Golden Dragon Seal with all his might.
Boom!
The seal fell and hit the King of Nanshan.
Holding a spiked club, the King of Nanshan held up the seal with both hands; the powerful impact instantly bent his back.
Seeing that the Golden Dragon Seal was ineffective, Hao Yun took out the Dragon and Phoenix Hairpin, preparing to launch a sneak attack from behind.
The hairpin was thrown straight at the back of the neck of the King of Nanshan.
"careful!"
The apricot tree spirit, who was watching from the sidelines, hurriedly shouted a warning.
While controlling the two magical artifacts, Hao Yun focused most of his attention on them, but he still turned his head and glared fiercely at the Spirit Apricot Tree Demon.
puff!
The dragon and phoenix hairpin pierced the palm of the King of Nanshan. If it weren't for the reminder from the spirit apricot tree demon, Hao Yun would have succeeded in this sneak attack.
However, the moment the King of Nanshan was distracted, the Golden Dragon Seal instantly pressed him down, forcing him to kneel on the ground.
"mean!"
Kneeling on one knee, the King of Nanshan angrily cursed Hao Yun.
"Get up! Drink!!!"
Throwing away the spiked club, the King of Nanshan bit the hairpin with his teeth, roared with all his might, and actually lifted the heavy golden dragon seal little by little.
Chapter 119 Comprehending the Laws of the Sword
This King of Nanshan is actually a mighty bull, born with immense strength and outstanding talent.
He cultivated to the level of a Taiyi Golden Immortal simply by relying on his instincts. Unfortunately, he was lazy and averse to work, hiding in this small mountain range and too lazy to visit famous teachers, thus wasting his great talent.
"Get up!"
The King of Nanshan picked up the Golden Dragon Seal and made as if to throw it away.
Having finally outmaneuvered his opponent, Hao Yun wasn't really confident he could win if the opponent escaped.
After throwing out the Yin-Yang Twin Swords, Hao Yun continued to manipulate the Golden Dragon Seal to put pressure on his opponent.
The Yin-Yang Twin Swords split in two in mid-air; the white sword slashed at the neck of the King of Nanshan, while the black sword pierced his chest.
As the crisis loomed, the King of Nanshan erupted, his eyes bloodshot and veins bulging on his body.
"break!"
The ground rumbled and a special power was injected into the body of the King of Nanshan.
The Golden Dragon Seal was instantly thrown away. The King of Nanshan bent down, grabbed the spiked club, and slapped away the Yin-Yang Twin Swords.
"You cowardly rat! Show me what other tricks you have up your sleeve!"
Standing in mid-air, Hao Yun was extremely troubled. This King of Nanshan was really too difficult to deal with. He had thrown out almost all of his magical treasures, but they were of no use at all.
Come on!
The King of Nanshan went berserk, wildly swinging his spiked club, sending dust billowing up from the ground.
Just as Hao Yun was pondering a solution, the Nanshan King, who had been smashing things around, suddenly leaped into the air, his spiked club flying out of his hand and smashing straight down on Hao Yun's head.
Instinctively bending down to avoid the attack, Hao Yun was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. This muscular guy actually knew how to scheme.
Recalling the Yin-Yang Twin Swords, Hao Yun used his sword control technique to escape, but unexpectedly, the King of Nanshan was hot on his heels.
Seeing that the distance between them couldn't be widened, Hao Yun stopped running. Damn it! Who's afraid of who? I'll fight you to the death!
Turning around and charging towards King Nanshan, Hao Yun held a short sword in one hand and a seal in the other. He threw the Golden Dragon Seal first, but King Nanshan gripped his spiked club tightly with both hands and knocked the Golden Dragon Seal away.
Hao Yun, who was right behind him, began to engage in close combat. Both of them were at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level, and Hao Yun was not at a disadvantage.
After several rounds of fighting, Hao Yun unleashed his true power, separating the Yin-Yang Twin Swords and wielding two short swords to continuously slash around the King of Nanshan.
The sounds of fighting attracted a large crowd, especially the spirits who had sought help from the King of Nanshan.
When they realized that King Nanshan was at a disadvantage, their hearts were in their throats. If they lost and the other side found out that they had asked King Nanshan for help, the other side would probably not let them off the hook.
Some people were already preparing to move away from this troublesome place.
"kill!"
With a furious roar, Hao Yun turned and circled behind the King of Nanshan. His two swords, one black and one white, were like two dragons, aimed straight at the King of Nanshan's neck.
The two had been fighting for a day and a night. The King of Nanshan was already used to Hao Yun's offensive. Without saying a word, he turned around and used his spiked club to block Hao Yun's twin swords.
In a flash of inspiration, Hao Yun suddenly took a step back and combined his two swords into a sweeping motion.
Pop!
Having been stuck at the peak of the Profound Immortal realm for a long time, Hao Yun broke through at this moment. A storm of spiritual energy surged around Hao Yun, and a large amount of spiritual energy poured into his body.
Hao Yun had once grasped the basic principles of swordsmanship, but now he had entered the realm of them.
The battle was not over yet, and Hao Yun had no time to reflect further. Holding his sword in his right hand, he unleashed the swordsmanship he had just comprehended.
Transforming into a stream of light, Hao Yun seemed to become one with the Yin-Yang twin swords in his hand at this moment.
A towering sword aura appeared, and Hao Yun gently waved it, following the sword aura as he charged towards the King of Nanshan.
Since ascending to the rank of Taiyi Golden Immortal, King Nanshan has never encountered an opponent, let alone faced a life-or-death crisis.
Faced with death, the King of Nanshan panicked.
Sword energy and Hao Yun, wielding a short sword, swept past the King of Nanshan, and a head the size of a bucket rolled down from the air.
At that moment, all the monsters who had been watching dispersed instantly, and some even began to move away.
The spirit apricot tree demon stood there dumbfounded, his eyes glazed over. He had never expected his opponent to be so strong; even the King of Nanshan was no match for him.
After the battle ended, Hao Yun exhaled a breath of stale air and turned to look at the Spirit Apricot Tree Demon not far away.
"You! Yes, it's you. Don't look around. I'm talking to you. Don't even think about running away, or my sword won't discriminate!"
The awakened spirit apricot tree demon obediently walked up to Hao Yun.
"Great Immortal, what business do you have with me?"
Faced with the choice between life and death, the Spirit Apricot Tree Demon decisively chose life; as for face, what was more important than her life?
"Where is this guy's hideout? Take me there."
After the battle ended, Hao Yun's first thought was to raid the enemy's lair. With a Taiyi Golden Immortal as the enemy, there must be many good things in the lair.
"I know, I'll take you there right away."
The spirit apricot tree demon immediately stepped forward to lead the way. As for Hao Yun, he glanced at the Great King of Nanshan and casually put away the spiked club he was using.
Although the design of this magical artifact isn't great, its quality is high.
With someone leading the way, Hao Yun arrived at the lair of the King of Nanshan three hours later.
Standing at the cave entrance, Hao Yun looked at the dilapidated cave and could hardly believe that this was the cave dwelling of a Taiyi Golden Immortal.
“Great Immortal, this is the lair of the King of Nanshan. I know where his treasure trove is. Shall I take you there?”
The apricot tree spirit, like a lackey, stood beside Hao Yun, trying to curry favor with him.
"Okay, lead the way."
Seeing how dilapidated the other party's cave dwelling was, Hao Yun had no idea that the other party's treasure vault would contain anything of value.
The cave is quite spacious, but the decoration is very simple, with only a few stone tables and benches.
Not a single monster was seen. Actually, it wasn't that Hao Yun didn't see them, but rather that the subordinates of the King of Nanshan had already dispersed upon learning that their leader had been killed.
"Great Immortal, this is the treasure trove of the King of Nanshan. May I leave now?"
As the spirit apricot tree demon brought Hao Yun to the front of the treasure vault, he felt uneasy, worried that the other party would kill him.
Let's go.
Hao Yun's casual remark moved the spirit apricot tree demon to tears. After thanking him, the demon hurriedly fled the cave.
