Book 36 - Chapter 8 – Miraculous Great Success (1/2)

The sa the saber out of its scabbard, Xu Ziling spun his body and rose up, his sleeves swept around, carrying roll after roll of strong wind, blowing the snow accu a man-made snowstorm Moreover, this snoas different from that other snow, because this snow contained his true power Anybody as unfortunate to have his acupoint hit, if the true qi protecting his body was rather weak, he would certainly suffer so’s saber fiercely chopped on Li Yuanji’s attacking swift-like-the-wind Splitting Horse Spearhead Li Yuanji’s entire body was severely shaken; unexpectedly he was forced to ’s chop, the entire follow-upthe sa would have been sweating profusely But today he was able to break it without extra trouble Even though Kou Zhong did not understand the Demonic Eressed greatly If at this time he followed up the victory and pressed hoain the upper hand

Mei Xun’s spear, Ke Dazhi’s saber, and Qiu Wensheng’s sword si laughed aloud Borrowing the impact force fro, as soaring into the air

Stifled groan sprang up everywhere; most of uished, the few that re snow that they flickered indeterhost do continuously, following Xu Ziling, as rising into the air; puff after puff of snowflakes was splashi+ng to attack the ene furiously, the warhorses were neighing sharply

‘Dang!’

‘Ding!’

Kou Zhong attacked left and right, separatelyKe Dazhi’s saber and Mei Xun’s Golden Spear head-on He also used the tip of his foot to kick Qiu Wensheng’s attacking sword

His momentum appeared like a rainbow, but actually the blood and qi in his body was rolling over and over He had no choice but to use thesooner – to flash past Xu Ziling

Ke Dazhi, three round; they were shocked inwardly, feeling that Kou Zhong’s poas really deep and i released his pohile he was high up in the sky, this moment he was already out of breath;a breath Fortunately, Kou Zhong’s big hand reached out, two hands grabbed each other, he carried hi upward, and suddenly they reached a horizontal leafless branch of a large tree

Li Yuanji was regrouping his battle array; he was about to soar upward only to see the forest was full of fluttering snow drops Unexpectedly he lost the two boys’ trace Crying inwardly, ‘Not good!’ he continued leaping up, purely relying on his intuition to attack upward

One after another the rest of hiswere secretly happy that they had passed the led by the ene Xu Ziling around And then it was Xu Ziling’s turn to send out his strength, just before Li Yuanji’s Splitting Horse Spear attack arrived, they escaped by a hair’s breadth, the two boys beca horizontally away, carrying with the blown by a big storm, the snow accumulation on the tree scattered and shot out in all directions Mo snow, like thick s them with the best cover to escape

The snow rained down on the torches, putting the horses, people crying out in alar clearly, the situation was chaotic to the extre and Xu Ziling leaped from the top of the tree to the next; they flew over the totally-in-chaos ene them, and escaped to the depth of the snowy forest

Those with coher martial art skill from the enemy ranks leaped up to intercept them, but the two boys countered everythe interceptors, they used the ‘true qi protecting the body’ that they had just th-and-deflect-force, staking everything and receiving a fewonly the area clear of any obstruction ahead, since they were unwilling to be entangled by the enemy even for a e nu the to let the

The height variation of the top of the trees was greatly advantageous to their leaping and escaping Under this kind of circuh up in the air was displaying its divine efficacy even !’

Two Tujueplace on a tree branch totheir lances struck the lower part of Xu Ziling’s body, while Xu Ziling was busy dealing with three saber strikes

Fro, Kou Zhong abruptly took a s were up and his head down, the Moon in the Well ferociously chopped two sabers In turn, the sabers accurately hit the two lances

Hit by the chop, the two Tujue martial art masters’ lances broke and the people injured, they fell down to the ground

Kou Zhong used this opportunity to reverse his force, he easily grabbed the clothes on Xu Ziling’s back, and borrowed the force to soar higher, and thus both the two ene the height of about two zhang above the treetop, it was Xu Ziling’s turn to take a breath, and so he took Kou Zhong flying across the air, and successfully broke through the siege net They juh the forest, and slipped away, free and easy

The two boys stepped into a stream and ran swiftly to the east for nearly five li Ahead was athe her and steeper

Instead of alarhted They clierous cliff Looking down, they only saw several fiery dragons flickering, flashi+ng on and off – rushi+ng toward their location high up in the h destroyed the tranquility of the snowy forest and wildthe forest as a cover, the two boys looked up to exa for any trail of the falcon Kou Zhong laughed and said, “That flat-feathered beast th to fly around in the sky”

Xu Ziling said, “You are probably only half right The eagle ought to be resting on its master’s shoulder; when needed, it would be dispatched”

Kou Zhong shook his head and said with a sigh, “If I were Li Yuanji, I would have beaten the gong to recall the troops early on and co’an to sleep Under the circue and escape, not toshook his head and said, “Li Yuanji is eager to win and loves to render ive up? Ke Dazhi is accustomed to difficult combat environment, he can’t possibly concede that easily Unless we can leave Guanzhong, these diao xue gui [lit hanging-boots ghost] definitely will not let us off”

Feeling big headache, Kou Zhong said, “What can we do to get rid of that pesky flat-feathered beast?”

Muttering to hi said, “There is only one hich is also the ’s pair of eyes lit up, he said, “Youresolutely said, “Only by using the water to escape e have the hope to avoid the falcon’s sharp eyes Otherwise, once we are out of the le would ihtened, the two boys crossed over seven, eight hills, big and se of the woods, where the trees were sparse and green Outside, as far as the eye could see, was the vast expanse of snowy plain

According to Kou Zhong’s estimate, if they turned north, they would reach the Yellow River by that afternoon, but on this road, it would be difficult to conceal their track Under the full light of day, it would be even more difficult evade the falcon’s eyes Plus they were certain that the coastal area of the Yellow River would be tee with the enemy’s massive military force, because it would be theIf they went downstreauan

Although Tongguan was a natural stronghold, it was only with regard to the ene fro as they could withstand arrows and rocks, they would be able to get through the Pass in a short aze from the sky; he spoke in low voice, “How’s your condition?”

Kou Zhong was still looking for any trace of the eagle; he replied, “My strength is , I still unconsciously gasping for breath Ling Shao has any good idea?”

Xu Ziling laughed and said, “I am a lazy person, I can only have lazy person’s idea Do you have any confidence that you will be able to rely on inner breathing and close your qi to hide inside the snow for one or two sichen? After the enemy leave, we can sleep to our heart’s content, and then proceed after dark to go to the Great River”

“That’s all I can think of as well,” Kou Zhong said, “In here, or on the outside?”

Xu Ziling said, “Under here perhaps the tree roots are intertwining Co outside the forest with an especially thick snoeen two s on the snoithout leaving a trace’ skill, they flashed over as fast as lightning, and then lying flat on the snow After le in the sky, they applied their power to sink into the snow

Xu Ziling sighed and said, “I still re, I only wanted to have fun and sank into the snow, yet as a result we beat back Yuwen Chengdu”

Kou Zhong was circulating his power to force heat out to dissolve the ice and snoas lying on Thinking about what happened that day, he could not help e his heart There were six of theh Susu escaped great catastrophe, in the end she fell ill due to the distress caused by Xiang Yushan, which led her to her death The former dust [in Buddhism: impurity contracted previously (in the sentient world)] and past events were flashi+ng by one by one in his mind

In the blink of an eye the two boys disappeared under a layer of snow For fear of the dogs sniffing the reeking of blood on their clothes, they sank down to the depth of nearly five chi, straight to the solid ground under the snow accumulation, before they stopped

It was so quiet under the snow; only their heartbeat and the sound of blood circulating through their arteries were dotting this wonderful world

Actually, it was because they had no other way that they had to take this risk If the enereat chance that they would see the traces of thesnow Or perhaps martial art masters of Ke Dazhi’s caliber would sense their presence

They applied their power to seal the pores on their whole body, so that the body heat would not be emitted outside, while also to prevent the cold air fro fro was circulating endlessly, and they were entering the fetal breathing state

The two boys’to so back inside their mother’s wo
