Chapter 83 This is the Wind Shadow Step
Swish!
The Wind Shadow Step was activated and the sword light appeared. There was no point in saying more in this situation.

Ding!
A bloody rune appeared out of thin air in front of the old man in blue robe, and the long sword slashed on the bloody rune, making a crisp sound.

The old man chuckled. How could he be here without any protection?

Click!

However, the next moment, a tiny crack suddenly appeared in the blood-colored runes that were connected together.

Then another flash of knife light appeared.

With a loud bang, like glass shattering, the blood-colored runes around it disintegrated and fell to the ground like dust.

The old man in blue robe was shocked, but it was too late to retreat. He only saw a shadow passing by, and the next moment, he saw his body standing there bleeding.

"how is this possible?"

He couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Immediately, there was a strong sense of unwillingness.

If the captain was here, with the captain controlling the dragnet, even a peak internal refining expert wouldn't be able to break through easily.

"Is this gone?"

Cao Ze looked around vigilantly, but did not see any reinforcements arriving.

After a brief thought and a quick touch of the corpse, he turned around and entered the cabin again.

At this time, the blood-colored runes in the cabin had been shattered, and the originally solidified patterns flowed on the walls of the cabin like paint baked by fire, making the place look as eerie and terrifying as the Avici Hell.

After going around the gangway and passing the dragon god statue, Cao Ze saw that there was a blood pool with a radius of three meters behind the statue. At this time, the blood pool was already filled with blood and was still bubbling, and there were faint traces of white bones floating in it.

It turned out that the pattern under his feet was not drawn with blood, but a tiny channel carved in the wood, connecting the pool of blood, allowing the blood to flow out of the pool of blood and fill the channels of the entire cabin, just like blood vessels, spreading throughout the cabin.

There are twelve pillars around the blood pool, and there is a person tied to each pillar!

The arteries in these people's hands and feet were severed, and the blood flowed down the pillars and finally gathered in a pool of blood.

"Uncle Qiang!"

After seeing the man on the Jiazi pillar in front of him, Cao Ze finally understood why he couldn't find Uncle Qiang in the warehouse.

His chest was still rising and falling, and he was still alive. Cao Ze breathed a sigh of relief.

He quickly stepped forward to put Uncle Qiang down and tore open his clothes to stop the bleeding temporarily.

Glancing at the other people on the pillars, he saw that most of them had no more chest movement, and had obviously been dead for some time. The remaining few had also fallen into a coma.

Bang!
Bang bang!

Suddenly, a dull heartbeat sound was heard in the cabin, as if a sleeping monster had suddenly awakened.

Swish!
He swung his knife to lower the others from the pillar, then Cao Ze carried Uncle Qiang on his back and rushed out of the boat.

He didn't know what would happen next. The other people were strangers to him, and if he put them down they might die in the end. But he could only ensure his own and Uncle Qiang's safety first, and the others could only wish for themselves.

bang bang...

The heartbeat became more and more intense.

The blood in the pool began to boil.

The blood that was originally flowing freely on the cabin wall actually began to flow back into the pattern. Soon, the shadow of the blood-colored rune appeared in the cabin again.

A ray of blood light appeared in the dark eyes of the Dragon God statue!
But just as it opened its eyes, Cao Ze had already turned into a shadow and left the cabin, running all the way to the deck, and then jumped into the water with a splash before the people of the Church of Poseidon could react.

He used his water control ability to create a dome in the water to prevent Uncle Qiang from drowning.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Bishui Village was right in front of us.

boom!
Just as I carried Uncle Qiang ashore, a terrifying roar came from the direction of Bishui Village.

"This is a warrior in the Refining Organ Realm!"

Cao Ze was helpless. Are warriors in the Zang-Lian realm so worthless now?

Even in the small Bishui Village, there are warriors in the Lianzang realm fighting each other?
He turned around without hesitation and went around Bishui Village towards Cape City.

The Church of Poseidon is the Dragon God Temple. The Dragon God Temple is an existence in the East China Sea that can compete with the four major families. It is not something that a small person like him can get involved in, so he'd better report it first.

……

"Die!"

Lu Longshu drove the talisman towards Hong Xing.

There was a dazzling golden light flowing on Fu Bao's flying sword, as if it contained the power to destroy the world. Hong Xing's eyes revealed deep despair, as she knew she could not withstand this fatal blow.

"My life is over!"

Hong Xing stood there exhausted. With her arms disabled, she couldn't even perform the Wind Shadow Step smoothly. She could only wait for death under Fu Bao's flying sword.

However, just as she was about to face death, a figure suddenly flew over from the side. His speed was astonishing, like a gust of wind. He held a long sword that had been tempered hundreds of times, with the blade pointing directly at Fu Bao Fei Jian, and a powerful aura emanated from him.

Swish!
The sword light lit up.

Ding!
The sword light and the talisman flying sword met in mid-air. The golden light was like a mountain collapsing and the waves rolling back, bringing with it the majestic power of heaven to suppress.

The silver light was like a silver seagull in the dark night, striking back at the golden light, and with the body of a mortal, it could stand shoulder to shoulder with the gods!
Boom! The two rays of light met in mid-air and they remained in a stalemate for a long time, refusing to disperse and suppressing each other.

After a moment, the silver light suddenly dissipated.

But the golden light was already at the end of its strength and flew backwards.

Lu Longshu was shocked.

Even though this flying talisman sword was only of the lowest grade, each strike of it was equivalent to a full-strength attack from a martial artist who had achieved a minor level of internal organ refining. How could it be blocked by someone?
Looking at the man in black who appeared next to Hong Xing, his eyes were full of fear.

"Man in black!"

Hong Xing, who was waiting to die with her eyes closed, sensed the changes around her. She opened her eyes, saw the stunning knife strike, and immediately understood the identity of the man in black.

It was this mysterious man in black who had previously massacred the Iron Blood Pirates and whom the four major families were trying to recruit with generous salaries.

In such a small Cape City, it is difficult for two warriors with perfect swordsmanship to appear in such a short period of time.

"I didn't expect him to be so strong!"

When she saw the treatment offered by the four major families before, she was a little disapproving and thought that the four major families were making a big deal out of nothing.

Now she understood what perfect swordsmanship meant.

Moreover, this person is making rapid progress!
A few months ago, his combat power had just touched the level of refining the internal organs, but now he can compete with Fu Bao Feijian, which is equivalent to the small success of refining the internal organs.

This man in black is definitely not an old man!
For some reason, Hongxing thought of the issue that the girls in Cape City were most concerned about.

Only young people can have such a breakthrough speed!

The Yue family guards also breathed a sigh of relief, and also thought of the legend of the man in black in Cape City. Hearing about him is worse than seeing him in person. In the past, they thought that the rumors about the man in black were exaggerated, but now that they have seen him, they understand that this mysterious man in black is much stronger than they imagined!

There is no doubt that the person coming is Cao Ze.

He was originally planning to go directly to Cape City, but when he passed by Bishui Village, he saw the figure in red. After more than a month of careful teaching, he could no longer ignore it.

After secretly observing the strength of the bishop of the Church of Poseidon, and discovering that Hong Xing had reached the end of his rope, he decisively stepped forward.

Ding!
Just when everyone's attention was on the man in black, Lu Longshu once again used his flying sword to attack, but was blocked by Cao Ze who swung his sword again.

He subconsciously used the Wind Shadow Step and got close to Fu Bao's flying sword when it lost control in the violent collision.

But he suddenly realized that the Wind Shadow Step was taught by the Hong Xing Sect. If he used it, wouldn't that mean he would reveal his identity?
Ding!
After repelling Fu Bao's flying sword once again, Cao Ze had made up his mind.

The big ship was lurking not far away, and the awakened monsters inside might chase him at any time, so he had to fight quickly and decisively.

Just expose your identity, Hong Xing can be trusted!
Lu Longshu controlled the flying sword to attack frequently. It seemed that he had the initiative, but in fact he was restless and impatient.

"We can't delay it any longer!"

Lu Longshu wanted to leave.

While controlling the flying sword of Fu Bao to attack Cao Ze once again, his figure flashed and flew straight to the seaside.

After repelling Fu Bao's flying sword and preparing to use the Wind Shadow Step, Cao Ze looked at the old man's fleeing back, pushed hard on the ground with both feet, and made a big hole in the mud. There was no skill, only brute force, but he also shot away quickly.

"careful!"

Hong Xing called out from behind, but Cao Ze had already flown out to chase after her.

Lu Longshu's blue robe fluttered, and the black belt around his waist emitted a faint black light, as if a black mini dragon was wandering around him.

Jumping into the sea, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

With the blessing of the Dragon God, he can walk on the sea water as if it were flat ground. Warriors of the same level cannot catch up with him at all. Even if they catch up with him, he will give the opponent a big surprise in the battle in the sea.

Of course, he had no intention of waiting for the man in black in the sea. He just wanted to return to his flagship as soon as possible, and then immediately conduct a blood sacrifice to activate the Dragon God Guard. Even if he was a half-step grandmaster, he could defeat him!

Wow!
The violent sound of water breaking brought Lu Longshu back to reality from his fantasy.

Looking back, I saw a white streak passing by, and the next moment, the man in black was blocking the way.

"how is this possible?"

Lu Longshu relied on the blessing of the Dragon God to play tricks on his opponents in the sea countless times. How could this man in black be faster than him?
Without the blessing of the Dragon God, even a martial artist who had mastered the internal organ refining skills could not be so much faster than himself underwater.

"If that's the case, then die!"

The talisman was activated again, and golden light suddenly lit up the dark seabed. After the talisman flying sword took shape, it immediately shot towards Cao Ze. This time, there was actually a black dragon-shaped phantom lingering on the talisman flying sword.

The water that was supposed to hinder the progress of Fu Bao's flying sword, when it encountered this phantom, scattered in all directions and actually helped the flying sword move forward.

In the water, the speed of Fu Bao's flying sword was actually three times faster!
Cao Ze also had a strange look in his eyes.

Although he has perfect water skills and the ability to control water, he is in water after all, so the power of his attack on the sea will definitely be reduced.

As one gains strength, the other loses strength. Ji Canghai may not be able to block the opponent's talisman flying sword.

but,
Swish!
The flying sword flew across the sea and headed straight for Cao Ze.

But it did not hit the target, but brushed past Cao Ze's clothes and flew away.

"Ok?"

Lu Longshu frowned, "Is it a coincidence?"

With his hands clasped together, golden light shot towards Cao Ze again from behind like lightning.

Swish!
It still brushed past Cao Ze's clothes, just like swinging a knife to chop fallen leaves. Before the blade touched the fallen leaves, the leaves were blown away by the wind created by the knife, making the knife miss.

Cao Ze was overjoyed.

Just now he just had a sudden impulse and wanted to try out the Wind Shadow Step in the water, but he didn't expect it to be a success.

Wind is simply a concrete form of gas flow, so it is not only on land that there is wind, there can also be wind in the sea.

The flow of sea water is wind!
Since there is wind, you can naturally perform Wind Shadow Step.

And because sea water is more tangible and material than air, the wind in the sea is easier to observe and feel.

It’s just like when we were learning geometry in the previous life, the teacher only used words to describe it, so it was naturally difficult for everyone to understand and it was very abstract. But when the teacher actually drew the geometric figures, those complicated formulas and theorems suddenly became vivid.

Cao Ze, who already has the ability to observe the sea, is even more powerful in the sea water.

Before Fu Bao's flying sword attacked, he could feel the flow of the sea water, which is the so-called wind. Then, with the help of the wind brought by Fu Bao's flying sword, he adjusted his body shape and easily avoided the attack of the flying sword without any effort.

Swish swish!
Lu Longshu controlled the flying sword of Fu Bao to shuttle quickly in the sea water, almost weaving a net of heaven and earth in the sea water. However, Cao Ze was like duckweed in the sea. No matter how rough the waves were, he would go with the flow. Even if you were in a storm, you could not affect him even a little bit.

Use the force to unload it, the wind has ever-changing power.

This is the true secret of Wind Shadow Step!
Cao Ze suddenly had an epiphany. He didn't expect that performing the Wind Shadow Step in the water would have such benefits.

The speed of Wind Shadow Step is already as fast as the wind, but its real power lies in its utilization of the enemy's offensive during combat, which can fully save physical strength. This is true for single-player combat, and if it is a one-on-many battle, the power of Wind Shadow Step will be even more obvious.

Ok?
Cao Ze, who was enjoying the Wind Shadow Step, suddenly opened his eyes and saw Lu Longshu fleeing in panic.

Fu Bao's flying sword stopped attacking. Without the pressure from external force, Cao Ze naturally woke up from his state of enlightenment, and a ray of enlightenment arose in his mind.

Call up the panel,

【Wu Fu:
Cultivation: Ninth level of physical training

Fish Dragon Transformation (Bone Forging): Getting Started (0/5120)

Snow Blade: Perfection

Hitting the Sea: Perfection
Wind Shadow Step: Great Mastery (87/400)

Love Point: 69】

Sure enough, the progress of Wind Shadow Step suddenly increased by 87 points!
This is the horror of enlightenment!
Cao Ze couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If Lu Longshu could hold on a little longer, maybe he could directly improve the Wind Shadow Step to the perfect level.

I don’t know when I will encounter such a situation again in the future.

With a sigh, he activated his water control and water properties, and soon he caught up with Lu Longshu again.

You want to escape from him in the water?

Cao Ze originally wanted Lu Longshu to use the talisman flying sword to attack him, to see if he could continue to enter the state of enlightenment.

Unfortunately, Lu Longshu just kept running away without firing a single shot.

He had no choice but to move closer with Wind Shadow Step and behead the man with one blow.

Taking off the belt from Lu Longshu, he saw clearly that the black dragon shadow lingering on Fu Bao Fei Jian came out from this belt.

After searching Lu Longshu's body, they didn't find a single piece of silver. The talisman was also nowhere to be found. No one knew if it had lost its power and dissipated on its own.

He looked at Lu Longshu's face carefully again, and recalled the portraits on the bounty list in his mind, but he couldn't find the corresponding ranking.

"The intelligence system of Cape City is not good. The master of the Refining Organ Realm of the Dragon God Temple is not even on the bounty list?"

Cao Ze put down Lu Longshu's head in disappointment and quietly dived to the bottom of the sea. He had already sensed someone coming.
