The Counterattack of the Villains

After Li Mu glanced around the tower, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, the general trend of the world is ours, so why do you have to resist stubbornly and lose your lives in vain?"

He spoke at a normal volume, which should not have reached the city wall, but everyone on the city wall could hear it clearly, as if it was ringing in their ears.

Li Mula revealed his unfathomable internal strength, which made the martial arts people in Wushuang City even more fearful.

Facing Li Mu, even the most unruly people in the martial arts world did not dare to talk to him rashly, but all turned their attention to Dugu Meng.

Although Li Mu was dozens of feet away from the tower at this time, with his eyesight, he could see this detail clearly.

"It's too early for the leader of the Xiong Gang to say this. My uncle is still here. As long as he comes out of seclusion, we still don't know who will win."

Li Mu looked at Dugu Meng who was speaking, and said in surprise: "It turns out that niece Meng is in charge, and you are back too. Where is your master, the Evil Emperor? Isn't he here?"

Dugumeng was stunned for a moment, as if he was surprised that Xiongba recognized her and knew who her master was.

The fact that she worshiped the Evil Emperor as her disciple was very secretive, and few people in the world knew about it. Unexpectedly, Xiong Ba suddenly revealed it.

But then she felt relieved when she thought of the all-pervasive intelligence network of the Tianxiahui.

Dugumeng said coldly: "If my master really comes out of the mountain, how can you have any room for your tyranny?"

Li Mu laughed and shook his head, saying: "Niece Meng, your master is indeed the best in the world among swordsmen."

"But being number one in the art of swordsmanship may not mean being number one in the world of martial arts. What's more, what kind of number one is a swordsmanship that you can't control?"

Dugu Meng's breath was stagnant. She was speechless at Li Mu's words, so she changed the topic, "So, Gang Leader Xiong thinks that his martial arts is the best in the world?"

At this time, there is no one on the side of Wushuang City who can compete with Xiongba, and the power of Wushuang City cannot stop the attack of thousands of Tianxiahui.

Therefore, Dugu Meng is actually stalling for time. As long as her uncle Sword Master arrives, she will no longer have to resist the pressure of the Tianxia Association.

The fate of Wushuang City and Tianxiahui will be determined by the victory or defeat of the Sword Master and the Xiongba.

But what she didn't know was that Li Mu actually had the same idea at this time.

Although Wushuang City cannot stop Tianxiahui, if it is attacked forcefully, there will still be many casualties in the fight between the trapped beasts in Wushuang City.

And as long as the Sword Master is defeated, Wushuang City can be destroyed without attack.

Since the battle with the Sword Master is going to be fought no matter what, why waste the lives of the gang members?

That's why Li Mu argued so patiently with Dugu Meng.

Li Mu smiled and said: "No, no, I always think that I am the second best in the world."

After hearing Li Mu's words, both the people in Wushuang City and the Tianxiahui Gang all looked at him in astonishment.

This is nothing like what a bully would say.

The members of the Tianxiahui Gang all frowned. Li Mu's words made them feel extremely uncomfortable.

In their minds, their gang leader is invincible, but at this moment, he personally said that he is only second in the world, which means that there is still someone in the world who can beat him.

For the people of Tianxiahui, this is not only an impact on their faith, but also makes them feel insecure.

Dugu Meng was also a little surprised, and asked subconsciously: "How dare I ask Leader Xiong, who is the best in the world?"

The smile on Li Mu's face faded and he said proudly: "Since I consider myself second in the world, there is no first place in the world."

"Wow"

As soon as Li Mu said these words, there was an uproar in the city and below.

The discomfort felt by everyone in the Tianxia Club was swept away, and they even admired Li Mu even more than before.

What is domineering? This is domineering.

Xue Antian shouted loudly: "The gang leader's martial arts skills are unparalleled and he is invincible in the world."

All the gang members also shouted in unison enthusiastically: "The gang leader has unrivaled martial arts skills and is invincible in the world... His martial arts skills are unparalleled and he is invincible in the world... His martial arts skills are unparalleled and he is invincible in the world..."

Seeing Li Mu's few words, the morale of the Tianxiahui gang soared, and the faces of Dugumeng and the people from the Wushuang City camp became extremely ugly.

"I'm not dead yet, who dares to claim to be invincible?"

At this moment, an angry shout exploded like thunder, shaking the whole place.

An old man with gray beard and hair, wearing a blue robe, flew over from the southern city wall, leaving a series of afterimages behind him, and finally landed on the roof of the west gate tower.

The martial arts people beside the female wall of the city tower turned around one after another, and they were overjoyed to see the old man standing on the top of the city tower, like a sharp sword piercing the sky.

Dugu Meng bowed and saluted: "My niece pays homage to my uncle."

Others also clasped their fists in greeting and said, "I've seen the Sword Master."

The sword master nodded to everyone, then looked at Li Mu below the city with sword-like eyes, and shouted: "Xiong Ba, you are so brave, you dare to bully the gate of my Wushuang City, I want you to come today.

No return.”

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Hearing the Sword Master's words, Li Mu couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh. When the Sword Master talks big words, he doesn't even need to write a draft, he just opens his mouth!

The sword master asked with a dark face: "Why are you laughing?"

Li Mu waved his hands repeatedly, but still said with a smile on his face: "I'm sorry, I just can't bear it. Please go on and say a few more words."

"The more you talk now, the more painful your face will be in a while, and the harder it will be for me to hit you."

The members of the Tianxiahui Gang suddenly burst into laughter, while the people of Wushuang City on the city wall turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

The sword master said angrily: "Shu Zi is looking for death."

As soon as the word "death" was spoken, he jumped down from the tower and flew towards Li Mu.

Upon seeing this, Li Mu flew up, stepped on the air, and shot towards the Sword Master like an arrow from a string.

When the two sides were close to a distance of twenty feet, Li Mu pushed forward with both palms, but a powerful move from the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms shocked hundreds of miles.

"hold head high"

Accompanied by a thundering dragon roar, a dragon-shaped Qi Jin, which was as transparent as water but allowed everyone to clearly see its outline, opened its mouth wide and hit the sword master.

The sword master's eyes narrowed and he said in disbelief: "Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms! How is this possible?"

Although he was shocked in his heart, he actually used the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms that had been lost for hundreds of years, but his movements were not slow at all.

He stretched his sword finger forward, and the majestic sword energy burst out from his body, condensing into a transparent giant sword in front of him.

The sword master swiped his sword finger and shouted: "Go."

The giant sword immediately flew towards the dragon shape, and both camps stared at the dragon shape and sword shape without blinking, waiting for the result of this collision.

However, when the two sides were less than five feet apart, the corners of Li Mu's mouth suddenly turned up.

In the area around his left hand, the dragon-shaped energy that had been separated from his body and could no longer be controlled, actually twisted his body and made an arc, directly avoiding the giant sword energy.

"What?"

The sword master was horrified. After the dragon-shaped energy bypassed the giant sword, it still hit him from the side.

Li Mu stepped down again, rising several feet out of thin air. The giant sword energy passed under him and stabbed diagonally towards the ground.

"boom"

With a loud noise, the giant sword energy sank into the ground and exploded.

In an instant, mud splashed all over the sky, and a huge pit nearly two feet in diameter and more than ten feet deep appeared on the ground.

Everyone in Tianxiahui Gang and the people in Wushuang City felt the ground shaking slightly.

Looking at the earth and gravel falling down, Xue Antian shouted decisively: "Retreat fifty feet."

The world will help everyone retreat in an orderly manner. Even watching this kind of duel between top experts is extremely risky.

Fortunately, this sword pierced the air. If the two sides had really collided just now, the aftermath of the collision would probably have injured many people.

In the sky, the dragon-shaped Qi Jin turned a corner and continued to rush towards the Sword Master. Like Li Mu, the Sword Master stepped into the void with his feet and somersaulted, avoiding the flying collision of the dragon-shaped Qi Jin.

However, this was of no use. Li Mu once again moved his left hand, and the powerful dragon-shaped dragon head turned around and charged towards the Sword Master again.

"hold head high"

To make matters worse, Li Mu now unleashed another dragon-shaped energy. The dragon-shaped energy in his right hand area, which originally seemed relatively rigid, suddenly became extremely agile, as if it came to life.

Li Mu controlled a dragon-shaped energy in each hand. At this time, it was like two living dragons besieging the sword master.

Bai Hong's palm power method is indeed ingenious.

After Li Mu understood its principles, he integrated it into the Capturing Dragon Kung Fu and created a method for controlling out-of-body energy.

Now Li Mu takes action, whether it is the strength of his fists, palms, or the strength of his swords and knives, he can turn corners.

It's not even as simple as turning a corner, but flying wherever you want.

This method can not only control Qi, but also naturally control weapons. It can directly control weapons to attack out of the body, which is somewhat similar to Li Chungang's method of using Qi to control swords.

This may seem like a magical method, but in fact it is a serious martial artist's method.

The real Xianxia method is to control the sword with spirit, not with Qi.

There is a word difference between sword control and sword control, but the core is completely different.

I dare not say so absolutely as to who is stronger and who is weaker, because the strength depends on the person, not the method.

The sword wielded by the gods is more sensitive and faster. Wherever the mind goes, the sword goes. As long as the mind is strong enough, it is not difficult to take the head of a person thousands of miles away.

But because the spiritual consciousness and the weapon are combined, the weapon becomes a part of itself.

If the weapon is damaged, it will also hurt yourself, and the counterattack force when fighting with others will also be fed back to yourself through this connection.

Controlling the sword with Qi is not that sensitive and fast, and it is even less possible to decapitate someone thousands of miles away because the target cannot be seen at all.

However, since the weapon is controlled by out-of-body energy, it has nothing to do with oneself. Even if the weapon is damaged, oneself will not be harmed.

When colliding with the enemy, the worst possible outcome is that the energy will be dispersed. As long as it is not a close fight, there will naturally be no backlash.

Both have their own advantages and disadvantages.

It's a pity that Li Mu currently doesn't have any useful magical weapons in his hands. Ordinary weapons are too fragile and will break in a fight with an expert. They are far less powerful than Qi Jin.

But if you use this move to control a large number of weapons and kill ordinary warriors, it will be really detrimental.

The only flaw of this move is that it consumes too much internal energy. If Li Mu had not condensed the golden elixir and the true energy in his body was not endless, he would have exhausted his internal energy in just a few times.

If you cannot defeat the enemy quickly, you will have no choice but to be slaughtered by others.

Therefore, only he can use this move in this world, and other people simply cannot afford such consumption.

But it was said that the sword master was surrounded by two dragon-shaped Qi Jin, and it became increasingly difficult to escape. He was tossing and turning in mid-air, which was very disadvantageous to him.

Therefore, the Sword Master landed directly on the ground after avoiding several dragon-shaped Qi attacks.

"Chi chi chi..."

After the Sword Master landed, infinite sword energy erupted from his body again. As his sword skills unfolded, the sword energy formed two nets, trapping the two dragon-shaped energy in them.

This is the Eighteenth Sword. The meaning of the sword is inexhaustible in three and three, and inexhaustible in six and six. The sword movements together become infinite and continuous, trapping the enemy in the sword net and slaughtering them at will.

When Li Mu saw this, he knew that the two dragon-shaped qi energies could not help the Sword Master, so he moved his hands inward, controlled the two dragon-shaped qi energies, one on the left and one on the right, and rushed straight towards the sword master, and then broke off.

Turn on control.

Li Mu also fell to the ground, and when the sword master had worn out the two dragon-shaped energy, he had already rushed over.

In a battle between warriors, the closer the distance, the smaller the consumption. This is a very simple truth.

If it were a completely close fight, Li Mu would be able to exert even more physical strength and his fighting power would be even stronger.

At this time, sweat was already visible on the Sword Master's forehead. Just consuming these two dragon-shaped qi energy would already consume three or four of his successes. If the opponent were to use a few more palms, he would be killed by the mere consumption.

Damn it, this Xiongba is much younger than me, how can he have such deep internal strength?

And although his move looks like the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, it is actually not the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, or it is not just as simple as the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

Because the energy exerted by the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms is straight forward and not so magical at all.

Although the sword master has never seen the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, he is very familiar with the Dragon Subduing Divine Leg. Even if he has never practiced it, he knows that this martial art cannot reach this level.

It can actually hover and fly after the energy leaves the body, just like a real dragon. This is simply not like a mortal method.

What he didn't know was that he only used 30% to 40% of his cultivation level to wear away these two dragon-shaped energy.

But Li Mu had only used it for a while, but it had already consumed more internal energy than the sword master's entire body.

Expelling those two dragon-shaped qi energy actually does not consume much. The real consumption lies in Li Mu's control of qi energy.

First, he must continue to output his internal energy and keep the energy from the body intact.

Secondly, it is necessary to use Qi Jin as a connection, just like the strings of a puppet, to control the out-of-body Qi Jin to flexibly turn around.

This requires continuous output of massive internal energy to maintain, and only he, Li Mu, can do this.

Of course, if Emperor Shitian and Xiao Sanxiao knew this method, they would dare to play like this.

After all, he is immortal and can practice for thousands of years. He is so willful.

Seeing Li Mu rushing towards him, the Sword Master raised his sword finger in front of him and made an ordinary stroke.

Jianyi is a simple and clear horizontal swing, but it contains the sword's meaning of speed, strength, ruthlessness, absoluteness, etc.

The holy swordsmanship can be called "wonderful and exquisite", and there are no simple sword moves.

Even this seemingly simple sword also contains subtle changes.

Li Mu knew the Holy Spirit Sword Technique very well, so he naturally knew the details of this move.

Originally, he could have used the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms all the time and consumed the Sword Master to death.

But he was afraid that when the sword master was exhausted and about to run out of fuel, he would have a flash of inspiration, an epiphany or something, and his soul would leave his body and strike him with Sword Twenty-Three.

Now there is no Bu Jingyun who can kill the sword master's body for him.

That's why he decided to change his fighting style and use exquisite martial arts moves to instantly kill the sword master with one blow.

Li Mu didn't believe it. The sword master who instantly lost consciousness and died was still able to comprehend the twenty-three swords.

With a sneer on his face, he did not dodge or evade, but directly swung the sword energy at the sword master to meet him, without even making any defensive or counterattack movements.

It was as if he was sent to the door by himself and used his own body to receive the sword energy of the sword master.

But the Sword Master's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Li Mu in surprise.

How could he know the details of this move?

The originally solid sword energy suddenly exploded just as it was about to reach Li Mu.

A ray of sword energy dispersed into countless small sword energy, covering all the dodgeable positions above, below, left, and right, except for the trajectory of Li Mu's charge.

This is exactly the change of Jianyi, specifically targeting the enemy's dodge.

The best way to crack this trick is to remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing situations.

If you choose to dodge, you are actively running into the sword energy and falling into the trap of this move.

But who in the world is willing to face the sword master's sword energy head-on without evading it?

After all, this move seems to be too simple and easy to dodge, so there is no need to expend your energy to block it head-on.

Seeing the change of color on the Sword Master's face, Li Mu smiled even more, and he also raised his right hand and made a concise and clear stroke.

At the same time, he stretched the little finger of his left hand forward and made a sword gesture.

Different from the Sword Master's sword fingers, when Li Mu performed this move, his right hand did not point to the sword, but stretched out the thumb, middle finger, ring finger, and curled up the index finger and little finger.

Shaoshang Sword, Zhongchong Sword, Guan Chongjian, the three sword energies use Sword One at the same time, while the Shaoze Sword in the left hand uses Sword Seven.

The sword master's pupils shrank sharply and he exclaimed in horror: "This... this is..."

Sword One, three Sword Ones in an instant, and among the three Sword Ones, there is also one move, Sword Seven.

What makes the sword master unbelievable the most is that each of these sword energies has different characteristics.

The Seven Swords mixed with the Three Swords One is like a hub, connecting the three Sword Ones with different attributes, almost forming a sword net that is completely different from the Eighteen Swords, and covering him.

If we talk about his Jianyi, he also has the method of responding to the ever-changing situation by staying the same and rushing straight into the middle.

Then there is no possibility of evading the opponent's sword move, and they can only choose to resist forcefully.

Sword Eighteen weaves a large sword energy net directly around the target. During the process of weaving the sword net, the opponent may be able to break away.

So this four-in-one move performed by Li Mu was to weave a large net of sword energy in an instant, and then move it toward the target. There was no way to resolve or escape.

Li Mu's sword energy was fast and powerful, leaving the sword master little time to deal with it.

Seeing that Li Mu had no choice but to dodge this move, the sword master did not intend to dodge.

As he moved his sword command, twenty-one sword qi roared toward the enveloping sword qi net with thunderous force. It was sword twenty-one.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

Violent explosions sounded continuously, and in a moment, the sword energy net was twisted into pieces by the twenty-one sword energy, and collapsed.

After wiping out the sword energy net, the sword master noticed that Li Mu was no longer ten feet away from him.

The sword master's face turned fierce and he shouted angrily: "Xiong Ba, I will fight with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, his whole body was instantly filled with sword energy, and the vast and endless sword energy emitted from his body, filling the sky and the earth, instantly filling the surrounding void.

The sword master shouted violently, and pointed forward with sword fingers on both hands, and the infinite sword energy turned into a great tide of sword energy, surging towards Li Mu.
