Chapter 23 A tougher guy
For Tantric's plan, the Zen Buddhism in the central plan did not boycott much. They only teamed with sects including Sanlun, Faxiang, Tiantai, Huayan, Jingtu and Lv to issue tasks to gamers to expel the Tantric's intrusion.
The reward for these tasks was very attractive. There were reputations and monetary rewards, as well as a chance to be connected to the Zen Buddhism in the central land.
Gamers who accomplished the tasks could also have the chance to become a part-time Shaolin disciple. They can enjoy life-long discounts when they make purchases in temples. Moreover, they could also have the opportunities to buy some precious Shaolin medicines that were not circulating in the market, such as 'Zhenyusan''Huoluodan'and 'Xiaohuandan'.
There were also rewards of higher levels. But currently no gamers were able to accomplish those tasks. Hence, this was not a place for ordinary gamers to practice and to level up.
They can only blame that the'Big Palm'was a skill hard to deal with.
For example, at this moment, another lama was using 'Big Palm', which had a powerful attacking strength. This was an intermediary level martial arts skill. Gamers who were hit by this skill would either die or become handicapped. But it had a completely opposite effect when it was hit on the companions. It could revive and bring the dying companions back to life.
Dugu Hong didn't feel the slightest horror facing this. He just let the other lama using 'Big Palm'to save his companion. Secretly, Dugu Hong had already sent his powerful internal force into the body of the dying lama via the axe that cut him through.
No matter whether the reserve power was to help to destroy a person, if the body channel was too small to accommodate the power flow that far exceeded its capacity, the ending was determined.
In a split second, the lama's meridian broked into pieces. Dugu Hong waved the 'Stone Cracking Axe'onto the other lama who did not have any precautions.
Among all the gamers, there was only Dugu Hong who was able to kill the Tantric enemies this easy.
Dudu Hong sighed while he was picking up the few copper coins left by the lamas. He sighed not because there were too few copper coins left but because he killed both the lamas taking advantage of their support and friendship.
When a person was used to logical judgement, he would subconsciously react even when being alone.
Just as Dugu Hong was blaming himself, there came the voice of Niuhuang, "Boss, come over. There's a tougher enemy here!"
A thin and tall dark shadow crossed the grass and the forest, like flying arrows.
Behind him was a red shadow, with clothes fluttering. Tapping a top of the toes on the tree leaves, the shadow was as light as a cloud but as fast as wind.
Monsters were not everywhere in "The martial world". A gamer usually needed to pack his food and water and looked for monsters before he could kill them to earn rewards.
Therefore, a best practice was for one weak gamer attracting monsters and the other strong gamer hid before killing the monsters. A combination like Niuhuang and Dugu Hong was the perfect match.
Since coming to this territory where no gamers were willing to set foot in, Niuhuang's skill of 'Ghost Wind'leveled up again. Without the boots, Dugu Hong could no longer catch up with Niuhuang even after he burst his agility.
Hence, it could be imagined how fast the red Lama's speed was for him to be able to gradually approaching Niuhuang.
In the blink of an eye, the two came to where Dudu Hong was. Niuhuang quickly slid away from Dugu Hong and said, "Boss, it's your turn now. Be careful!"
His voice was full of ridicule, which was not a friendly alert but the pleasure of finally slapped a friend.
Basically, these two were not a cooperative team. The only reason behind their grouping was to take advantage of the skills the other party was best at.
Within a certain limit, it was their only entertainment to make fun of the other one by getting him into troubles.
Dugu Hong didn't dare to neglect the power of the red Lama even without Niuhuang's alert. He waved his 'Stone Cracking Axe' and shouted, "Cut watermelon!"
Axe lightening slashed onto the red lama.
The red lama fluttered around, and he avoided the lightning before his feet stepped on the ground.
"Cut ears!" Dugu Hong reacted quickly and swept his axe out.
However, the red Lama was even faster. His toe tipped on the ground lightly and floated into the sky like a red could, surpassing the surface of the axe.
"Toothpick!" Dugu Hong changed his hit again.
The Lama finally struck back. He extended his white jade hand from the sleeve and touched on the tip of the axe. He quickly retreated against the axe, avoiding the cut by the axe.
Dugu Hong thought he successfully forced the opponent out of the range. But the red shadow turned downside up, hooked the axe with his toes and turned back into Dugu Hong again.
During these few rounds, none of them took advantage over the other party. In fact, it was easy to tell which side had advantage.
Dugu Hong's axe was powerful. But the red Lama was like a weightless leaf. No matter how fast the axe was, the leaf would be blown away by the axe before the axe cut onto it.
This was a defining difference. If Dugu Hong kept waving his axe like lifting weights, he would never be able to hit the red Lama.
With the hook on his toes, the red Lama rushed into Dugu Hong again. It looked like a repeat of the beginning, but it was totally different.
The programmers of "The martial world" obviously had read the history. They knew that if the 'Cheng's Axe'didn't hit the enemies within three steps, the axe holder would run away immediately. Hence, they added an interesting bonus to the 'Cheng's Axe'—
Extra double synchronization rate, flapping speed, heavy hit and special effect trigger bonus were added.
These bonuses could be described as 'terror'and were also the reason why the 'Cheng's Axe'could be comparable to high level skills. But, once this final hit was used and failed, it meant that there was no way for the axe to hit the red Lama anymore.
Dugu Hong took out his 'Meteor Sword'. White mist started to condense around him.
Cangshan, also known as Diancangshan, or Baitoushan.
Cang meant white in ancient Chinese. In Cangshan mountain, there were 19 mountain peaks covered with snow all year around and surrounded by white clouds. It was one of the best views in Dali city.
It was said that 'Cangshan Yunxue Sword' was inspired by this. And Dugu Hong launched the skills from 'Cangshan Yunxue Sword'with his 'Meteor Sword'.
The red Lama flew like a fire in the snow, and easily stirred up Dugu Hong's Cangshan Yunxue Swordmanship.
