High Martial: I Use Everything as Swords
Chapter 95 - 93: Blood Escape, Golden Cicada! Can What’s in Hand Fly Away?
In the blood-red mist, a shadow glided silently along the dark side of a building.
He was "Long Nail."
He glanced back with contempt.
The uproar from Warehouse Three was nothing more than background noise for his successful escape.
’A bunch of fools dancing in the palm of my hand.’
He lowered his head, staring at the slowly pulsing, purplish-black sarcoma in his arms.
His breath grew hot.
The Nether Embryo!
’Once I offer this to the Deacon, a promotion to the Bloodline will be within my grasp!’
He had already contacted "Xue Si" using a Secret Technique.
Three hundred meters ahead was the secret tunnel left by Xue Si.
Once he was underground, with the swarm for cover, he would disappear completely.
He averted his gaze, his body about to turn into a wisp of smoke and merge with the dense fog.
Just as he was sure victory was his and prepared to accelerate,
a lethal sense of danger washed over him.
A bone-chilling cold shot up his spine and straight to the crown of his head!
Long Nail’s movements abruptly froze.
He looked up in horror.
In the night sky, the fighter jet painted with the image of a young girl was circling above him.
Even the churning blood-red mist couldn’t completely hide its silhouette against the fiery glow.
"You’re courting death!"
Instead of being alarmed, Long Nail laughed, absolutely confident in his elusive Body Technique.
At such a close distance, a normal strafing run from a machine cannon couldn’t possibly keep up with his speed.
The next second, however, the vicious smile on his face froze.
The jet didn’t perform a carpet-strafing run.
The dark muzzles of the six-barreled machine cannon only spat out three muffled bursts!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
Three cannon shells, wreathed in an eerie red glow, traced three spiral trajectories that defied the laws of physics.
They closed in on him from three directions in a triangular formation!
’This isn’t shooting, it’s a formation!’
’His Body Technique really is bizarre!’
High in the sky, Han Feng saw through his Spiritual Vision that the man’s body was twisting in an inhuman way.
Slipping through the gaps in the barrage by a hair’s breadth, he now had a good measure of his opponent.
’This assassin is far stronger than that cultist who self-detonated earlier!’ 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
’If I can’t hit you, then I’ll just make it so you have nowhere to run!’
Han Feng changed his strategy in an instant.
Block his path!
DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA!
Alice’s six-barreled machine cannon finally let loose, unleashing a roar that tore through the night sky!
Hundreds of shells infused with Spiral Force erupted from the muzzles, forming a raging red dragon.
Han Feng piloted Alice, performing a death waltz at low altitude.
The fuselage nimbly rolled, slid sideways, and turned sharply.
He actually managed to weave the long chain of bullets into a cage of death right in Long Nail’s escape path!
Each shell was no more than twenty centimeters apart.
The high-speed, rotating Spiral Qi Force tore at the air, producing a shriek sharp enough to rupture an ordinary person’s eardrums!
"Impossible!"
Long Nail’s pupils contracted sharply.
The space before him was completely sealed off by a net made of cannon shells.
He wanted to go left, but a whistling barrage of bullets was on his left.
He wanted to go right, but the trajectory of death was on his right as well.
He could no longer afford to stay hidden.
The power of the Shadow Needle Gu inside him erupted in an overload!
Leaving a blurry afterimage in his place, he burned his own life force to forcibly squeeze through a gap less than a palm’s width between two shells.
PFFT!
Even so, a shell still grazed his shoulder.
The Spiral Force exploded, instantly churning the flesh of half his shoulder into a bloody pulp.
He let out a suppressed grunt as his Mimic Stealth state was instantly broken.
He tumbled wretchedly out from the shadows.
"Over there!"
The gunshots were the best coordinates!
Lei Zhen and Wang Defa simultaneously locked onto his direction.
Power erupted from their feet, cracking the ground beneath them. Their bodies turned into two afterimages as they charged over without hesitation.
"Damn it!"
Long Nail looked at his mangled shoulder.
A scorching and sharp Spiral Qi Force clung to the wound, continuously destroying his vitality.
But he didn’t panic.
The thick blood-red mist around him scented the blood and surged madly into his wound.
The destructive energy was quickly neutralized by the cold Blood Energy.
New flesh began to regenerate at an astonishing speed.
’In this blood mist, I’m immortal!’
’What kind of monster is that pilot in the sky?!’
He had no time to think, as two heavy pressures had already locked onto him from the left and right.
"Found you, you piece of shit!"
Lei Zhen’s roar made the air buzz.
His mechanical prosthetic limb glowed with a dangerous red light as he unleashed a Mechanical Arm Strong Strike, which whistled through the air straight at Long Nail’s face.
On the other side, Wang Defa remained silent.
The earthy-yellow Sword Aura on his thick-backed broadsword surged three feet long.
With a single Overlapping Waves Slash, the force of his blade stacked layer upon layer, forming a wall of steel that completely sealed all of Long Nail’s escape routes.
’Two Enlightenment Realm masters!’
Long Nail’s heart sank to the depths.
But he was, after all, the ace of the Blood Feeding Sect, with incredibly rich combat experience.
Facing Lei Zhen’s punch, which was powerful enough to shatter a tank, he shifted his footing and slid back half a foot.
The fist scraped just past the tip of his nose.
At the same time, a dark Lifebound Gu Needle shot from his fingertip, striking with unerring precision at the weakest point of Wang Defa’s layered Sword Aura.
DING!
A crisp sound rang out.
Using the force of the rebound, his figure drifted back again, perilously creating a distance of several meters.
"Not a bad Body Technique."
Lei Zhen sneered, but his assault only grew more ferocious, adopting a wide-open, all-offense-no-defense style.
Every punch created a sonic boom.
Wang Defa, on the other hand, was as steady as a rock. His Sword Technique was calm and heavy, and with each slash, he continuously compressed Long Nail’s room to maneuver.
Nourished by the blood mist, Long Nail’s speed and reflexes were greatly enhanced.
He was like a slippery loach, constantly facing perilous situations under the frenzied attacks of the two masters.
Several times he was nearly hit, but he always managed to barely avoid the blows at the last moment with self-mutilating contortions.
His eyes were fixed on the tunnel entrance not far away, which was covered by a few concrete slabs.
’Just three more seconds!’
’And I’ll be home free!’
Just as he was preparing to feint and charge for the entrance, ready to risk serious injury,
a sharp, triumphant glint flashed in the eyes of the ever-steady Wang Defa.
"Earth-Splitting Wave!"
Wang Defa abruptly stabbed the tip of his broadsword into the ground, and his powerful Rock True Qi erupted!
RUMBLE!
A fan-shaped, earthy-yellow shockwave swept across the ground, originating from the tip of his blade.
Everywhere it passed, the concrete ground fractured inch by inch!
Unable to dodge in time, Long Nail felt a violent tremor under his feet. His body swayed, and he nearly fell.
And the tunnel entrance he had seen as his last hope collapsed with a roar under the shockwave.
It was completely buried by countless fragments of stone and dirt.
His escape route was cut off!
"Not good!"
A chill completely washed over Long Nail’s heart.
In that momentary lapse, Lei Zhen’s iron fist, wrapped in metallic killing intent, was already smashing toward his chest.
"It’s over!"
Lei Zhen’s single eye was cold and merciless.
"You want to kill me? You think you’re worthy?!"
In this desperate situation, a crazed and resolute look flashed in Long Nail’s eyes.
He no longer dodged. Instead, he met Lei Zhen’s fist head-on and let out a shrill scream.
"Blood Escape·Golden Cicada Shell!"
He violently threw the Nether Embryo in his arms into the air.
His body, in that same instant, transformed into a ball of incomparably dense blood-red light and exploded with a bang!
