While everyone was still not optimistic about Tang Yuan, Lu Feng's face showed some relief.
He already understood Tang Yuan's intention in choosing Zuo Fangming.
On the martial arts field.
Unlike the previous jungle, which was full of leafy trees, the battlefield between Tang Yuan and Zuo Fangming was now filled with nothing but rubble.
Zuo Fangming was good at stick skills, so from the moment Tang Yuan broke in, he had already held the long stick he used to use - the 'Mingtian Stick' in his hand.
In response, Tang Yuan took out a stick from his bag without hesitation.
An ordinary stick that looks like it was made directly from wood!
Zuo Fangming couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw Tang Yuan suddenly holding the stick, and then a three-pointed smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The previous provocation on the cliff was intentional, with the purpose of making Tang Yuanji start the challenge from him, but at this moment, the sneer and contempt on the corner of his mouth came from his heart.
One pokes fun at an ordinary long stick in the hands of Laughing Tang Yuan;
The second one was laughing at Tang Yuan for actually choosing the stick method to fight him. He was really overestimating his own abilities.
With other skills, he might still be a little afraid, but with a stick, he thought he could defeat Tang Yuan.
Not to mention that Tang Yuan was spending a lot of money at the moment. Even in his prime state, he was absolutely confident that he could knock it down under the long stick in his hand.
With a stick, he has never defeated anyone.
Ping ping ping...
When Zuo Fangming saw Tang Yuan running towards him, he did not immediately meet him. Instead, he shook up several small gravels on the ground in front of him and struck them with his long stick towards Tang Yuan.
The Mingtian Stick made of fine iron hits these gravels and makes a crisp pinging sound.
Countless pieces of gravel burst out towards Tang Yuan like a goddess scattering flowers, with such force that it could pierce the heart and break the organs.
Look at this scene.
Xiao Jiaoer, who was on the cliff, couldn't help but laugh out loud, as if she had seen Tang Yuan stumble and lose.
"I didn't expect him to be so stupid. He actually dared to show off his stick skills in front of Senior Brother Zuo, and he even used a broken wooden stick."
"Senior Brother Zuo's stick skills are so exquisite that even grandpa praised them."
"He's definitely going to make a fool of himself now, a big embarrassment!"
Jin Peipei looked at the long stick in Tang Yuan's hand thoughtfully, but because the distance was too far, he couldn't see too many details.
However, judging from Tang Yuan's ability to easily sweep away the flying gravel and even shock it back, it can be seen that the flexibility of the long stick in his hand is by no means as simple as an ordinary wooden stick.
The ordinary wooden stick suddenly hit the rubble that Zuo Fangming had hit, and the storage was shattered into pieces and collapsed on the spot.
But the long stick in Tang Yuan's hand was able to knock back the gravel without being damaged, which clearly shows how extraordinary it is.
Haruyuki also noticed this, and curiously asked Master Hongzang on one side, "How could your sect have such a rare long stick?"
Master Hongzang smiled ashamedly: "Ti Zong is all about horizontal kung fu, how can there be such an exquisite long stick."
As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Feng intentionally.
Haruyuki understood immediately and understood that it should be a gift from Lu Feng. Considering that the Qingshan Sword Sect had some background, it was not surprising that he could produce such a long stick.
He didn't think deeply about it at the moment and continued to look at the field seriously.
After Zuo Fangming tentatively swung out a few sticks to test, he had already figured out the details of Tang Yuan. He indeed had some attainments in the stick technique, so that he could knock away the gravel he swung so skillfully and easily.
It is extremely difficult for someone who is not an expert in the stick method to do it.
At that moment, he also looked a little serious.
He stopped probing and attacked Tang Yuan directly.
At this moment, Tang Yuan was still at the point of blasting away the last wave of rubble. Seeing Zuo Fangming's attack, he quickly shifted the angle of the shock towards Zuo Fangming's path, intending to intercept it.
But the next moment, Zuo Fangming's running figure suddenly became very smooth, twisting through the gravel one by one like silk.
It's so erratic and slippery that it's hard to figure out its specific trajectory.
It's like a snake swimming through the water, stealthy and dexterous.
In the blink of an eye, Zuo Fangming's figure had already approached him effortlessly.
Tang Yuan suddenly stepped on the ground in shock, and with the huge force of his feet, he jumped out of the way and narrowly avoided the sweeping attack from behind by Mingqin Zuo Fang.
The metal-like Mingtian Stick whipped up waves of howling cold wind in front of his chest.
Although it was only affected by his breath, it still made Tang Yuan's sternum feel a dull pain.
If this was hit by a real blow, the sternum would probably be directly shattered.
Zuo Fangming's stick technique combined dexterity and strength, making Tang Yuan feel extremely difficult to deal with.
Zuo Fangming was also horrified that Tang Yuan could burst out with such speed in an instant. From the remaining aura, he could tell that Tang Yuan should have used the power of the Black Dragon Pill to shake his body away with tyrannical force.
It was precisely because of this that he felt even more frightened. If his body bones were a little weaker after such a shock, not only would he not be able to use the force to dodge, but his lower legs would be broken on the spot by the shock.
'Is this the product of combining the practice of Ti Zong?'
While Zuo Fangming was shocked, he couldn't help but feel a little bit of envy in his heart. If he were more than ten years younger, he would also want to try this kind of practice.
But right now, all he wants to do is drive away Tang Yuan, a guy who overestimates his abilities.
After a brief moment of surprise.
The offensive power of the Mingtian stick in Zuo Fangming's hand suddenly increased. As it danced vertically and horizontally, dense shadows of the stick wrapped around Tang Yuan.
Under the force of such a stick, even if Tang Yuan used his previous violent dodge steps, it would be of no avail. He could dodge one stick, but it would be impossible to dodge everything.
The dense stick shadows were like a swarm of snakes, already surrounding Tang Yuan.
What awaits him is a place filled with snakes.
The people on the cliff couldn't help but be shocked by this scene. They held their breath and looked at Tang Yuan nervously.
Like Xiao Jiaoer, who watches a good show and waits for Tang Yuan to make a fool of himself and be defeated;
Just as Master Hongzang was worried;
And there is also the old Valley Master of the Beast Valley, who has a faint hope and expectation.
Although he didn't like people like Tang Xuan who abducted his precious daughter, he didn't reject Tang Yuan too much as he had his daughter's blood in his body.
There was indeed some conflict in the beginning about whether to accept or not, but after seeing the battle between Tang Yuan and Li Shixin, the slightest bit of rejection in his heart had dissipated.
What I want to think more about is whether this little guy Tang Yuan can bring him more surprises.
If he stopped there, he was still willing to accept it because he was already tempted, but the prerequisite was that Tang Yuan should clear away his relationship with Ti Zong.
Let Tang Yuan become a pure Beast Valley disciple.
If he wants to change this deep-rooted obsession in his heart, unless Tang Yuan can truly show off his strength that will amaze him.
Tang Yuan was also aware of the ups and downs of his road.
Therefore, how could he let himself fall at the hands of a mere Zuo Fangming.
The wooden stick held in Tang Yuan's hand suddenly tightened.
The next moment, the stick posture that had been resisting suddenly changed, and a set of exquisite stick techniques was unleashed.
Jiujiu Guiyin Stick!
It was the stick technique that Lu Feng passed down to Feng Yuan.
Even outsiders like Feng Yuan and Lu Feng had taught it, so how could they miss Tang Yuan.
The Jiujiu Guiyin Stick may not be able to match Zuo Fangming's Snake Stick in terms of power, but in terms of picking off tricks at the drop of a hat, it can be said to be invincible.
The essence of Jiujiu Guiyin Stick lies in the word "yin", which is not sinister and cruel, but insidious. This insidiousness is for the enemy. It makes the enemy feel that everything has been seen through, and they suspect that something is happening around them.
insidious.
Its main purpose is to understand and use the moves, focusing on a move that can see through the enemy and a move that allows the enemy to see through oneself.
Although the heavy stick shadows wielded by Zuo Fangming are messy, they are not without rules. As long as you find an accurate entry point, you can skillfully break them apart one by one.
The Jiujiu Guiyin Stick is the key to this entry point.
After Tang Yuan used the Jiujiu Guiyin Stick to fight back several stick shadows, he had already adapted to the rhythm of Zuo Fangming's stick shadows.
I also saw the essence of the entanglement of his stick shadow. The meaning is not the word entanglement, but the speed.
Once the enemy adapts to the offensive rhythm of his long stick, such densely entwined stick shadows can be broken through one by one.
Tang Yuan saw through this.
But Zuo Fangming didn't notice it. Seeing Tang Yuan rushing towards the stick shadow in front of him stupidly, he couldn't help but raise a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
If he were hit by a stick, he would be reduced to a headless fly, completely lost in the chaos of his sticks, and would be bruised all over his body.
However, just when Zuo Fangming felt that the victory was determined, the shadow of the stick was about to hit Tang Yuan head-on.
Suddenly, he saw the long stick in Tang Yuan's hand quietly changing, turning the block into an attack. He cleverly moved the stick shadow that was covering his head to the back, and happened to stop another stick shadow behind him.
"Isn't it? You're so lucky?!"
Zuo Fang Ming was stunned for a moment, but soon he realized that Tang Yuan's narrow avoidance was not due to luck, but because his stick force had already been broken.
The avoidance of the first stick can be explained by luck, but the successive elimination of his remaining stick shadows and breaking out of the entanglement cannot be explained by luck.
What surprised Zuo Fangming the most was that each of Tang Yuan's sticks clearly had the potential to hit the target and be in danger, but a reversal of the momentum later allowed him to skillfully avert danger. It was truly extremely cunning.
Although Zuo Fangming was shocked, he had lived for twenty or thirty years and had rich combat experience. Once the entangled stick shadows were resolved, he made a change of moves. At the moment when the heavy stick shadows disappeared, he used
A 'flying snake pierces the heart'.
This is the most powerful single-point defense-breaking move among his snake sticks. It can be used as both a main attack and a sneak attack.
Tang Yuan took advantage of the situation to shake away the numerous stick shadows, and suddenly saw the flying stick approaching from the left, like a galloping arrow breaking through the fog and hitting him.
At this moment, he held the stick's crossbar, intending to shake the flying stick away.
Zuo Fangming, who was hiding behind the flying stick, couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth when he saw this.
The flying snake piercing the heart in his hand is not a stick piercing the heart, but a human being piercing the heart!
Since Tang Yuan's attention was on a long stick, there's no need to blame him for being unkind.
The palm force in his hand had gathered, and the moment Tang Yuan shook his long stick, he was tired of defense.
However, the next moment.
Just when Zuo Fangming thought he had a chance to win, he ended the fight with one blow.
However, he saw Tang Yuan suddenly let go of the long stick in his hand, and used the palm of his hand to shake the long stick forward, completely ignoring the flying Mingtian Stick.
This scene completely stunned Zuo Fangming.
'Have you... been seen through!?'
Only this explanation can make sense.
But Zuo Fangming couldn't understand why Tang Yuan knew his stick skills so well since this was their first time fighting against each other.
It was by his side... Did Xiao Jiaoer betray him?
Or is it that he really has a deep understanding of the stick technique, and through the previous fight, he has seen through his flying snake piercing the heart?
boom!
One horizontal and one stabbing.
Tang Yuan and Zuo Fangming were attacked by their respective long sticks at the same time.
Trade injury for injury!
But unlike Zuo Fangming, Tang Yuan relied on his tyrannical body-refining skills to minimize the damage caused by the stick stabbing through the heart by a flying snake.
But Zuo Fangming was struck by Tang Yuan's long stick, and was sent flying backwards. His chest almost shattered, and his blood could not stop churning.
When he tried to gather his energy to fight back, he was surprised to find that the air had traveled to the meridians in his chest, causing blockage and stasis.
"There's something wrong with this long stick!"
Zuo Fangming suddenly woke up and looked at the long wooden stick that fell to one side and stood leaning on the gravel ground with horrified eyes.
"What kind of stick is this!"
"Why is it so weird!"
"After being injured, it can cause stagnation in the meridians!?"
