Chen Tang did his best to calm his mind and remain composed.
Xiao Xun was the first major adversary he faced upon arriving in this world!
This battle was of extraordinary significance.
It was also a test of what he had learned over the past few months!
Almost simultaneously, the two charged at each other.
In the blink of an eye, they were within attack range.
"Desperate Battle!"
Xiao Xun held his saber with both hands, feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and slashed towards Chen Tang head-on.
This move burst forth with a montum of forcing into a desperate situation, a fight to the death!
"Butcher’s Skill!"
Chen Tang did not clash head-on, but shifted his footing and body, waving his saber.
The long blade pierced in from the side at a strange angle, avoiding Xiao Xun’s edge, directly targeting his ribs!
"Huh?"
Xiao Xun’s expression changed.
Chen Tang’s move was extrely tricky, surpassing the scope of typical slashing and thrusting in sword techniques.
Neither like a saber nor like a sword.
During this period, Chen Tang had intensely cultivated the "White Ape Swordsmanship" in the Cyan Dragon Bureau.
The use of Butcher’s Skill sowhat incorporated a swordsmanship form, making it more bizarre and difficult to parry!
Moreover, to Xiao Xun’s eyes, Chen Tang’s saber ca extrely fast!
With a flash of cold light, the tip of Chen Tang’s saber had already reached his ribs!
Although not in the Divine State, Chen Tang’s Burning Wood Saber had been cultivated to the Second Layer, capable of delivering eighteen slashes in one breath.
Saber strikes were extrely fast!
A martial artist of the eighth grade might not even be able to withstand a single slash from him.
Such a fast saber!
Xiao Xun was shocked, hurriedly withdrawing his saber to retreat, switching stances, and executing an impenetrable move.
He brandished the long saber, creating saber flowers in front of him, as if forming a water curtain that blocked everything!
Clang!
The two sabers inevitably clashed!
The water curtain dispersed.
Chen Tang’s offensive was also dismantled.
The two sides returned to the fray.
Among the saber techniques Chen Tang had learned, South and North Wars, Sweeping the Six Directions, and Vast Ambition were all combat skills for one against many, unsuited for the current situation.
Only Butcher’s Skill was suitable for one-on-one combat.
Fortunately, Butcher’s Skill had no fixed form, adapting randomly based on the opponent’s moves, making it not so easy for Xiao Xun to handle.
But as ti went on, Xiao Xun gradually found a solution.
His Black Water Blade Technique contained a move called Dragging Mud and Water.
Every ti Chen Tang’s long saber clashed with Xiao Xun’s blade, it seed as if it was stuck in mud and water.
No matter how fast the saber technique, it would co to a halt.
No matter how powerful, the force would disappear.
Chen Tang repeatedly struck but was always unable to break Xiao Xun’s saber technique.
Conversely, Xiao Xun seized the opportunity to counter repeatedly, forcing Chen Tang to clash directly with him!
In terms of strength, Xiao Xun indeed held an absolute advantage.
After a series of exchanges, Chen Tang was greatly depleted, with his palm and arms feeling sore and swollen.
If this continued, he feared he might not even be able to hold onto his saber!
I must find a way to break this situation!
On both sides of the street, so people appeared.
Li Boxiong, Li Junqing, and others had arrived. They seed to know the strongman, leading their groups to battle the Black Water Gang.
Qingmu, along with Zhiwei and more than a dozen Vermilion Bird Guards, blocked this section of the long street, intercepting so Black Water Gang guards trying to assist.
Residents nearby, hearing the commotion outside, began to peek through door cracks.
When they saw the two individuals on the long street, they felt a mont of deja vu.
The scene was familiar.
Just a few months ago, sothing similar had happened.
Back then, Chen Tang, bare-handed, had wielded sixteen paths of Tiger Subduing Fist, only to be slashed more than thirty tis...
Now, it seed slightly better.
At least Chen Tang now held a saber.
But at this mont, an unforeseen change occurred!
Unable to grip the long saber, Chen Tang was disard by Xiao Xun with the power of Dragging Mud and Water!
He was bare-handed once again.
Moreover, he resud the Tiger Subduing Fist, which seed laughable.
Everything seed to return to the starting point.
Until a bone-chilling tiger’s roar echoed on the long street, sending shivers down everyone’s spines, making them tremble with fear!
...
The long saber was disard, making it seem like Chen Tang was at a disadvantage, but in truth, lethal intent was concealed!
Chen Tang knew that if he continued to prolong the fight, his strength would surely be exhausted, and it was only a matter of ti before he lost grip of the saber.
Since that was the case, he might as well abandon the saber early!
Over the past few months, he had actually spent the most ti practicing with his hands.
Tiger Subduing Fist, Great Strength Vajra Hand, including the Dragon Capturing Technique.
With the support of Great Strength Vajra Hand, Chen Tang believed that even if Xiao Xun was of Seventh Grade, he might not withstand his fist technique!
Moreover, the Dragon Capturing Technique included a Dharma Gate for empty-handed blade seizing!
At the mont Chen Tang released the saber, Xiao Xun’s eyes flashed with bewildernt, his saber technique paused, revealing a barely noticeable hesitation!
Chen Tang’s eyes shone, stepping forward, extending both hands like double dragons taking water, winding towards Xiao Xun’s saber-wielding wrist!
Xiao Xun reacted swiftly, flicking his wrist, the blade danced in front of him, casting a blade light.
But he was ultimately a step too slow.
Just as the blade light appeared, Chen Tang’s palm had already touched his wrist, poised to tear tendons and shatter bones, to snatch away the long saber from his hand!
Bang! Bang!
Xiao Xun counterattacked with rapid kicks, his toes like spears, jabbing towards Chen Tang’s arms.
Chen Tang could only retreat half a step.
Xiao Xun’s long blade fell to the ground.
Although Chen Tang had dislodged Xiao Xun’s long blade, he couldn’t hold it in his hand.
After all, he had only cultivated to the Eighth Grade Bone Transformation Realm, not yet reaching the Yijin level.
If he had achieved Great Mastery of Yijin, combining hardness and softness, advancing and retreating at will, the success rate of seizing a blade barehanded would greatly increase!
Xiao Xun wanted to pick up his blade again, but Chen Tang didn’t give him the chance.
With a move like a Fierce Tiger Out of the Cage, his breathing beca incredibly heavy, like a fierce tiger swallowing the heavens and earth, letting out a heart-palpitating low growl!
Xiao Xun was horrified!
At this mont, it seed that what charged at him wasn’t Chen Tang, but a giant fierce tiger with ghostly glowing eyes and ferocious fangs!
This was the power of cultivating Tiger Subduing Fist to the ’Divine’ realm!
Xiao Xun’s mind was captivated, his courage weakened, and although his power exceeded Chen Tang’s, he dared not engage directly.
Executing an Iron Plate Bridge, he fell backward with his head up, almost parallel to the ground, relying entirely on his legs for support!
This move narrowly avoided Chen Tang’s offensive.
But the great tiger above Xiao Xun’s head, following the montum, pounced down, its hands like massive tiger claws rushing towards his throat!
Xiao Xun exerted force with his legs, both kicking and retreating, while raising his hands to block Chen Tang’s Hungry Tiger Pounce.
Ripppp!
As soon as they touched, Xiao Xun’s sleeve cuffs were torn apart by Chen Tang’s hands, revealing several bloodstains on his forearms, bleeding profusely.
Taking this opportunity, Xiao Xun distanced himself from Chen Tang and flipped back onto his feet.
He shook his head vigorously, then opened his eyes to look again.
What tiger? All he saw was Chen Tang, face filled with killing intent, eyes glaring fiercely!
Tiger Leaping Gorge!
Chen Tang leaped and lunged once more in front of Xiao Xun, breathing heavily, like a series of low growls.
Tiger Subduing Slash!
Chen Tang launched a Splitting Fist towards Xiao Xun’s face, like a mountain-opening giant axe, imposing in its presence!
Xiao Xun dared not et it with one hand, and could only raise both arms to block in front of himself!
Bang!
The fist struck hard at the junction of Xiao Xun’s arms.
Xiao Xun felt his arms go numb, trembling slightly, barely holding the posture.
This Splitting Fist was not just the ’Divine’ realm of Tiger Subduing Fist; it also contained the power of Great Strength Vajra Hand!
Chen Tang’s punch contained Vajra Power!
For an Eighth Grade martial artist, just one punch could shatter their tendons and bones!
Terrified, Xiao Xun turned to flee.
Like a Tiger with Wings!
Chen Tang leapt into the air, his speed astonishing, seemingly flying towards him, catching up to Xiao Xun in no ti!
Hungry Tiger Descending the Mountain!
Black Tiger Heart Stealing!
Tiger Tail Kick!
Tiger Struggle!
Furious Tiger Piercing the Forest!
Tiger’s Roar and Dragon’s Pivot!
Fierce Tiger Offering Claw!
Stealing Food from a Tiger’s Mouth!
...
Chen Tang unleashed all sixteen moves of Tiger Subduing Fist and then stood firm, exhaling a long breath.
Across from him, Xiao Xun stood in place, looking pained, sweating profusely, his body slightly swaying.
Suddenly, a series of crackling sounds ca from within his body, like frying beans, or bowstrings snapping!
The next mont, Xiao Xun seed to lose all strength, collapsing to the ground, letting out a series of shrill screams!
Chen Tang’s Tiger Subduing Fist had caused multiple bone fractures and joint dislocations!
"Tiger Subduing Fist..."
i Yingxue watched this scene, her expression complex, murmuring: "So he wasn’t lying to , Tiger Subduing Fist really can kill."
Standing on the long street watching, Zhiwei had been extrely tense, as if transported back to a few months ago, seeing Chen Tang being cut down, stabbed dozens of tis.
Not until this mont did she breathe a sigh of relief.
The fear of Xiao Xun etched deep in mory was slowly dissipating.
Chen Tang picked up the long blade from the ground, his expression icy, taking steps towards Xiao Xun.
"Chen Tang, you can’t kill !"
Xiao Xun shook with pain, gasping, his voice trembling: "I’m not the Young Leader of the Black Water Gang, I’m the prince of the Black Water Country, I..."
"I don’t care who you are!"
Thunk!
Chen Tang bent down, slashing a blade across Xiao Xun’s throat.
The blade was sharp, eting no resistance.
A head as big as a bucket rolled a circle on the long street, motionless.
Xiao Xun’s eyes remained wide open, showing fear, unwillingness, and regret.
Unfortunately, it was all too late.
"This..."
So people living nearby saw this scene, looking shocked, unable to recover for a long ti.
That hot-blooded youth they once mocked a few months ago seed to have really beco the Young Hero Tiger Subduing.
He did the things they didn’t dare to do, killed the people they didn’t dare to kill!
Chen Tang carried Xiao Xun’s bloody head to the front of the Black Water Gang, loudly proclaiming: "The Black Water Gang of Wu’an County has been annihilated, Xiao Xun is dead!"
Seeing this scene, the mbers of the Black Water Gang still fighting with Li Boxiong and the others lost their will to fight, fleeing in all directions.
Li Boxiong and the others felt relieved, not continuing the pursuit.
From last night’s battle until now, they hadn’t rested, rushing long distances and fighting several intense battles, their energy already exhausted.
After killing Xiao Xun, Chen Tang also felt a sense of ease.
Having been transported here, he often thought of Chen Da’an and the experiences of his past self.
Not until this mont, after avenging Chen Da’an and his past self, did Chen Tang let go of his burden.
From now on, he could set out lightly, drink and sing wildly, travel the mountains and rivers, traverse the Jianghu, without carrying any burden.
