Infernal Artist

Liu Ping and Libertas stood on the cliff, looking at the monsters together.

"Libertas." Liu Ping said.

"Huh?" Libertas said.

"Have you ever defeated an opponent with a higher level than yourself?" Liu Ping asked.

"...Brother, the average adult warrior in our clan is no match for me." Libertas said.

Now that you have such combat experience, there is no need to worry.

Liu Ping laughed and continued: "It seems that it was a pity that you died when you were in purgatory."

"Otherwise, how could you be admitted into the class of young people who died young by The Fool? Isn't it the same for you and Hua Qingkong?" Libertas said lightly.

"Okay, later, remember one thing." Liu Ping said.

"What?" Libertas asked.

"I can treat." Liu Ping said.

Libertas took out the dagger and dagger from his waist and said with a smile: "What else can we say? Let's go?"

"superior."

Liu Ping put on a knight's armor, took his shield and long knife, and walked slowly down the mountain road.

Libertas took two steps back and suddenly disappeared into the void.

Huo Ya thought for a while, then slowly ran forward and followed Liu Ping's feet.

At the foot of the mountain.

The gray monsters sped up and rushed towards Liuping along the rugged mountain road.

Looking closely, they are actually humanoid monsters with scales all over their bodies and running on four claws.

Liu Ping's expression remained unchanged, and he put down his visor to cover his face.

——The first monster opened its bloody mouth and pounced on his neck.

Both sides engage the enemy!

In the flash of lightning, Liu Ping stepped forward and pressed the shield in his hand against the monster's fang-filled mouth. He held a long knife in his other hand and stabbed upwards from under the shield quickly.

flutter.

The long knife penetrated the monster's chin and came out through the head.

The monster still struggles——

Libertas appeared quietly on its back, plunged a dagger into the back of the monster's neck, and twisted it hard.

A soft light appeared on Liu Ping's knife.

The monster's injuries immediately recovered.

Several lines of burning small characters appeared:

"You used the long knife to perform the 'life-saving and healing' technique."

"Your soul power has increased by 5 points."

"The monster is dying."

The monster fell to the ground motionless. Liu Ping stepped over the monster and raised his knife to face the second and third monster.

Almost at the same moment, the fourth, fifth, and sixth monsters rushed forward.

Libertas suddenly disappeared.

His concerned voice came from the void: "Hey, don't die. Remember to treat yourself."

"There shouldn't be any need for treatment," Liu Ping said.

He held the knife in one hand and cut through the void, going from extreme stillness to extreme motion with a snap of his fingers——

Strange arc-shaped blades of light bloomed from the long knife, forming a formation that filled the sky and the ground, locking the space around the five monsters.

——苋字杀!

In an instant, the monsters were cut with bloody gashes all over their bodies.

This actually aroused their ferocity.

They all roared wildly and rushed towards Liu Ping regardless.

Liu Ping, however, had already retreated, spreading out wisps of holy light as he retreated.

The light falls on the monsters——

The monsters gradually stopped screaming and their running speed was not so fast.

"spring breeze!"

Liu Ping shouted low, and the long knife turned into a bright light, rising into the sky along the belly of the monsters.

Several monsters were chopped off and flew up.

Libertas suddenly appeared in mid-air, holding a monster in his arms, wiping its throat with a dagger, and then jumped on the other monster.

The monster swung its claws vigorously and stabbed into Libertas' arm.

Libertas paid no attention to the injury.

He pulled out a short sword with his backhand, thrust it straight into the monster's belly, and thrust it several times in succession.

The monster dies immediately.

A soft light appeared on Libertas' arm.

Holy healing technique!

Libertas's wound healed immediately.

He whistled loudly, stabbed the other monster in the stomach with his sword, and kicked it away.

Fire Fang had been coveting it for a long time. He bared his teeth and rushed forward, biting the monster's throat. He didn't let go until his mouth was covered with blood.

The monster was bitten so madly that it clawed hard at Fire Fang with both claws.

"let me help you!"

Libertas was about to step forward when he saw a holy white light falling on the monster.

The monster's limbs went limp and fell to its knees, unable to move even though it struggled.

It watched helplessly as Fire Fang bit its own throat.

Libertas took a few steps back angrily and disappeared into the void again.

It sounds slow to say, but this continuous battle broke out in the blink of an eye, and the result was achieved in just two breaths.

Six monsters, four dead!

There are two ends left——

But at this time, the strange group behind them surged up.

"Too many!" cried Libertas.

Liu Ping held the long knife and shouted: "Get ready-"

The next moment.

Boom, boom!

The mountain suddenly shook.

It broke apart, forming a cliff that directly separated the group of monsters behind it.

Liu Ping relaxed slightly, waved his long knife, and shouted without looking back:

"Thanks!"

On the top of the mountain, Norton moved the brush away from a card and murmured: "What a ferocious dog, what a ruthless assassin - and this kid, isn't he a healer?"

on the hill.

Liu Ping stood still, swung his sword at will, and slashed in the void several times.

The two monsters were covered in dense bloody wounds.

The assassin stabbed hard from behind.

The pastoral dog also pounced.

A soft white light enveloped the bodies of the two monsters.

Two breaths.

The monster dies.

Liu Ping looked into the void.

His soul power has increased a lot, and he has made another fortune.

He walked to the edge of the cliff, raised his long knife towards the monster opposite, and kept swinging it——

Endless sword light surged out like a tide, crossed the sky, and hit the monster group like a sudden rain.

Libertas was amazed and couldn't help but said: "This move is too complicated, as if the sword light is used to outline some kind of continuous line - what is it called?"

"It's called 鉽龘齬齾爩羗羪龖厵纞苋zan." Liu Ping said.

Libertas fell silent.

at the same time.

There were bursts of screams from the cliff opposite.

Immediately afterwards, bursts of soft light flickered on and off, and the monsters stopped hurting and stopped screaming——

The injuries on their bodies have all recovered, but they just look a little listless.

Libertas thought: "This move of yours is a bit too showy. Aren't you afraid that others will steal it?"

"It's okay," Liu Ping said while looking at the recorded soul power: "Even if this move is learned, I still have the skills... Wait, but if you say I show off my skills, this It reminds me."

He thought for a moment, put away his shield, and set up a knife rest on the spot.

"The skills of our lineage focus on reducing complexity into simplicity, so that nothing can be conquered..."

The long knife is sheathed.

He closed his eyes and whispered:

"Why not bring all the swords into one, which is called the return of all the ways to the clan."

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

Liu Ping opened his eyes.

He walked to the edge of the cliff, jumped lightly, and floated to the opposite side like a flying leaf.

All the monsters immediately cheered up and even moved a little away, ready to tear this reckless guy into pieces as soon as he landed.

Liu Ping landed.

The sword came out of its scabbard like a thunderous sword and returned as if it had never been taken out.

too fast.

No one knows how the sword was cut.

When everyone reacted, they only saw a dazzling arc-shaped sword light hovering among the strange groups on the opposite side of the cliff, motionless until it gradually dimmed and disappeared.

The world quieted down.

Dozens of monsters stopped roaring and roaring, and their bodies all split open.

At their feet, the cliff was cut into two neat parts and slowly collapsed.

boom--

Smoke and dust rose.

The mountain collapsed, leaving only the place where Liu Ping stood still standing tall.

What a skill!

Libertas looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "How to destroy the enemy? It's just one cut - such a fast knife, such advanced skills - it has even surpassed the skills. How did you do it?"

Liu Ping explained: "Combining all the sword lights into one and cutting them all out instantly is like a one-time explosion."

"This move is quite suitable for me. It can be called a one-word slash. However, the one-word slash does not show its charm, so let's call it an 'instant slash'."

Lines of burning small characters appeared quickly:

"Following Spring Breeze Slash and Dead End Slash, you have mastered a new slashing technique called 'Instant Slash'."

"Instructions: Gather all the sword lights into a line and chop them out with all your strength (the more soul power you spend, the more powerful this move will be)."

--I see.

The moves on the mysterious side are all driven by soul power.

For example, with the cutting method I used before, every time I cut three characters, I had to consume 1 point of soul power.

Now I am gathering all the words into "one", which coincides with the rules of the mysterious side skills, and superimposes all the power into the one-style cutting method.

This way.

The more soul power you inject, the more powerful this move will naturally be.

"You used your soul power to drive the Cross Slash, sublimating it step by step, exploring a new mysterious side sword technique, and gaining corresponding experience."

"Your experience increases to 30%."

Liu Ping glanced at it and raised the long knife in his hand to examine it carefully.

A faint red appeared on the originally sharp blade, exuding a burning aura.

——All the sword light was compressed into one move and burst out instantly, so much so that the blade of the long sword could no longer bear it.

It seems that I need to find a good knife in the future.

Liu Ping thought secretly.

On top of the mountain.

Norton's voice sounded far away:

"If I had known that there was a monster next to me, what would I have been afraid of? Okay, now we win."

"Is it over?" Liu Ping said in surprise.

"You are level 9 and I am level 18. Killing twenty level 15 monsters is already pretty good. What else do you want?" Norton said loudly.

Liu Ping shrugged.

All along, we have been facing either prisoners, sleepers, or guys like the Ten Thousand-Eyed Demon King, and we have to try our best to survive in the cracks.

Now I only have to deal with some ordinary level 15 monsters.

——The problem can be solved by just fighting.

This makes people uncomfortable.

The next second.

A line of small black characters appeared in front of everyone:

"After this combat assessment, the review results have come out:"

"--pass."

"You have met the minimum standards for creating a team."

"Now, please create a team name for your team."

After reading it, several people fell into deep thought.

"What about night?" Norton asked.

"Why is it called this?" Libertas asked.

"The night is beautiful, and the scenery is endless." Norton said.

"——We are not a tour group." Libertas said.

"Then what did you call it?" Norton asked unhappily.

"Night Killer?" Libertas asked.

"This name must have been used by others a long time ago." Norton said.

Liu Ping interjected: "We are a team created to go to the snowy mountains to rescue people. Why not call it the 'white and free and handsome team'."

"Absolutely not!"

Norton and Libertas said in unison.

Liu Ping still persisted, but Libertas held his shoulders and said seriously: "Liu Ping, forget it in the past, but we will still survive in the Machinery City from now on, so don't be willful."

"Okay, what do you want it to be called?" Liu Ping said.

"Our wish is to save people, and the team's name can have the word 'wish' in it," Norton said.

"This is eternal night, but I will go to purgatory one day. This is another wish of mine." Liu Ping said.

"Sooner or later I will go back to take revenge." Libertas said.

"I also want to visit Purgatory." Norton said.

The three of them were silent.

"——Why don't we just call her Ye Yuan." Liu Ping said.

"Okay." Norton said.

"This name is quite normal." Libertas said with a sigh of relief.

Liu Ping looked at the line of small characters and said:

"Our team is called 'Nightwish'."

A line of small black characters appeared:

"you sure?"

"OK." Liu Ping said.

"Congratulations, your team 'Nightwish' has been formed."

"In order to help the new team better adapt to everything in the Mechanical City, this sequence will provide you with supporting basic supplies."

"You can also make some requests, and this sequence will respond as appropriate."

Liu Ping said: "We need a 'no-go zone pass'."

Another line of small black characters appeared:

"The 'Zone Pass' is specially prepared for those strong teams, because only they can gain something from the penalty area and come back alive."

"Are you sure you need a 'no-go pass'?"

"Yes." Liu Ping said.

"Your request has been approved."

"Please remember that everything you gain in the restricted area can be handed over to the Machinery City in exchange for corresponding rewards and treatment."

"Okay." Liu Ping said.

The void moved slightly.

A red card fell down and floated in front of Liu Ping.

——Restricted area pass!

Finally got it!
