Supreme Cthulhu

Chapter 36 This knife... so scary!
"Nie?" Zhang Jianhao was stunned for a moment when he heard Ling Jiuxiao's words, and then his eyes showed a thoughtful look. He began to look for a powerful warrior named Nie in his mind.

Looking at Zhang Jianhao's thinking, Ling Jiuxiao held back his laughter. Even if Zhang Jianhao wanted to break his brain, it was impossible to find a warrior related to 'Nirvana'.

The reason why Ling Jiuxiao lied about being called 'Nie' was not just casually, but implied.

His soul passed through Ling Jiuxiao's body, just like the rebirth of the phoenix's Nirvana, and he lived a new life, so he told the other party that he was called Nirvana.

Zhang Jianhao thought for a long time, but he didn't find any information related to Nirvana, so he had to give up. He didn't think that Ling Jiuxiao would lie to him again, but felt that Ling Jiuxiao's strength might be extremely strong in the outside world, and belonged to the kind of hermit. The strong one, or the opponent's status is too strong, so high that ordinary people can't know it.

Thinking of these two possibilities, Zhang Jianhao made up his mind that he must take care of Ling Jiuxiao. When the time comes, let Ling Jiuxiao teach him one or two sword skills, and he will really make a lot of money.

Just when Zhang Jianhao was thinking about how to ask this 'Senior Nirvana' in front of him for advice, there was a sudden vibration in the ground.

Five desert centipedes emerged from all around, surrounding the two of them.

"Senior Nirvana!" Zhang Jianhao was a little nervous when he saw the five desert centipedes, so he could only look at Ling Jiuxiao for help.

Unexpectedly, Ling Jiuxiao's body retreated suddenly, relying on phantom footwork, Ling Jiuxiao escaped from the encirclement of the desert centipede.

"Senior Nirvana..." Zhang Jianhao saw Ling Jiuxiao fleeing, with a look of horror in his eyes. With his current strength, he was not strong enough to deal with these five desert centipedes. Once he was besieged, he would surely die.

"Don't you want to improve your saber skills? Then at least let me see how far your saber skills are, so that I can guide you. The appearance of these five desert centipedes is the best time to show off your saber skills. Don't worry, if you are facing a life-or-death crisis, I will take action!" Ling Jiuxiao stood aside, with the ice blue sword behind his back, and said lightly with his hands wrapped around his chest.

Hearing this, Zhang Jianhao had a bitter face, but he had no choice but to obey.

"Senior Nie, then you must make a move at the critical moment!" Zhang Jianhao said to Ling Jiuxiao in an almost pleading tone.

"Don't worry, with me here, you won't die!" Ling Jiuxiao said firmly.

Then Zhang Jianhao took a deep breath and prepared to deal with the five desert centipedes. He wanted to use his full strength to prevent Ling Jiuxiao from underestimating himself. He was still imagining in his heart that if he could show superb sword skills in this battle , Maybe after leaving this ghost place, he can still worship under Ling Jiuxiao's sect. At that time, thinking of this, Zhang Jianhao's nervous face burst into a smile.

With a strange hiss, a desert centipede behind Zhang Jianhao rushed towards him.

Zhang Jianhao immediately held the scabbard with his left hand and the hilt with his right, his whole aura changed instantly.

"It's interesting!" Seeing this, Ling Jiuxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, with an expression of interest on his face.

He could tell that Zhang Jianhao was using the sword drawing technique, which was transformed from the sword drawing technique used by a swordsman named Ximen Chuuxue.

The power of sword drawing is not weaker than that of sword drawing. Sword drawing pays attention to agility and quickness. The swordsman named Ximen Chuuxue, the sword drawing technique he uses can be described as astonishingly fast. Rumor has it that In front of him, as long as Ximen Chuuxue draws his sword, he will surely die.

As for the knife drawing technique, because the blade is heavier, it lacks the lightness and quickness, but it has more thickness, and the lethality becomes stronger.

Knife drawing is to use the arc when drawing a knife to create an instant explosive power. Its strength and speed are greater than directly swinging a knife out of thin air. Therefore, it is the first move to hit the enemy first, and strive to be fatal with one move. Therefore, the core of the knife drawing technique It lies in killing with one blow. If the enemy can block the first strike of the knife drawing technique, the person who uses the knife drawing technique will almost certainly be defeated.

Ling Jiuxiao saw Zhang Jianhao's sword-drawing technique. The opponent drew the sword very quickly. When he was standing on the desert centipede that was pounced on him, the blade easily hit the opponent, but only left on the opponent's body. A deep wound did not cut it off, he shook his head slightly.

Ling Jiuxiao could see Zhang Jianhao's weakness from Zhang Jianhao's one strike. In his opinion, Zhang Jianhao has completely fallen into a misunderstanding now. The skill of drawing a sword is to be powerful and deadly with one blow, even if the speed is a little slower. It doesn't matter, but it must be killed with one blow, otherwise it will be difficult to fight against the enemy after drawing the knife.

And Zhang Jianhao pursues speed too much. He draws his sword very fast. Although the martial arts in the world are only fast, but the sword drawing technique is a unique martial art. His doing so will undoubtedly reduce the power of the knife drawing technique. At some point, the pursuit of speed Not necessarily the right choice.

Based on Ling Jiuxiao's idea, if Zhang Jianhao can kill a desert centipede with the first strike, then the five desert centipedes will not pose a threat to him, but Zhang Jianhao failed to kill him, so his situation has become a little critical, facing five desert centipedes at the same time. It is difficult for him to resist the siege of the first desert centipede.

Ling Jiuxiao's body shook, rushed to the five desert centipedes, picked up Zhang Jianhao, and rescued him.

After Zhang Jianhao escaped from the siege of the desert centipede, he breathed a sigh of relief, and thanked Ling Jiuxiao, "Thank you, Senior Nie, for your action!"

"Has your sword-drawing technique always been like this?" Ling Jiuxiao looked at Zhang Jianhao and asked.

"Ah?" Zhang Jianhao was asked by Ling Jiuxiao's question, but he didn't understand what it meant.

"I mean, when you use the knife drawing technique, do you pay attention to speed?"

Zhang Jianhao nodded hastily.

"If you are strong, it is not a problem to draw the sword faster when facing an enemy weaker than you, but the sword drawing technique is not for you to use against weaker enemies!"

"Give me the knife, and I will personally show you what is called drawing the knife!" Ling Jiuxiao stretched out his hand and said to Zhang Jianhao.

Hearing this, Zhang Jianhao handed the long knife to Ling Jiuxiao with joy on his face.

As a result of the long knife, Ling Jiuxiao held the scabbard in his left hand and the handle in his right, leaning forward slightly, and rushed towards the five desert centipedes.

A desert centipede at the front roared fiercely, and rushed towards Ling Jiuxiao.

When the desert centipede was two meters away from Ling Jiuxiao's body, Ling Jiuxiao's right hand moved, and he slowly stopped the long knife. The speed was not fast, but the moment the blade was pulled out of the scabbard, the head of the desert centipede was directly cut into pieces. two halves.

Zhang Jianhao, who stood by and saw this scene, was stunned in shock, "This knife...is terrifying!"
