Chapter 407.

This was a scene that was unexpected to everyone.

The Silver Cicada in the lead had disabled his own martial arts right under their noses, and there was absolutely no way to fake this.

However, under the Long River Sword Intent’s bombardment, it was cleanly broken by Jiang Ran’s Canghai Viewing Slash, just at the moment when Jiang Ran had decimated the Heavenly Fury Divine Blade and arrived at Song Wei’s heels with the Shattered Gold Blade in his hand.

The Silver Cicada, who had already abolished his own martial arts long ago, had actually arrived behind Jiang Ran.

His palms lifted up, internal energy condensed in his palms.

This was a sneak attack!

An incredible sneak attack staged in front of everyone.

Questions even subconsciously surfaced in everyone’s mind.

How in the world did this trick change?

Could it be that the sea of qi of the leading Silver Cicada was not in the dantian?

But the phase of dispersed energy, but the real thing.

How could he be so intact?

The one who reacted first was Daoist Deficiency.

When his figure came together, the Great Diffusion Immeasurable Sword had already coalesced, and at the same time, the heavenly sword qi rose up from the ground, it was the Sword Wusheng’s Wusheng Seven Swords!

However, no matter how brilliant the two of them were, they were great experts.

And with what incredible reach.

Wanting to save Jiang Ran and stop the head Silver Cicada’s ghastly strike in this split second was also by no means possible!

Just at the moment when the two were about to strike.

An odd to the extreme force had already traversed the four directions.

Dao Wu Sheng looked up in shock, and realized that his Great Diffusion Infinite Sword was being affected by a bizarre force, the light in it flickering out and flickering, as if it was a candle in the wind, ready to dissipate at any moment.

Even Jian Wusheng’s internal breath had become erratic and difficult to gather.

Not only that, with the leader Silver Cicada as the core, spreading a full mile in a circle in an instant, the ground was shaking with mud and sand.

Dust rolled up, stones turned into fragments and shattered with a bang.

It seemed to want to coalesce towards the core, but without waiting to reach the target location, the palm was already sent out.

The smoke and dust that swept across the sky swept up a monstrous storm behind the leader Silver Cicada, and an unrivaled might completely exploded the moment Jiang Ran turned back!

This palm then, without the slightest reservation, struck Jiang Ran between his chest and abdomen.

Jiang Ran’s entire person flew in response to the hand, and with a bang, as if he was a broken doll, he rushed out with a slanting punch, first crumbling half of a mountainside not far away, and then immediately afterward rising up in the air, crashing through a large tree.

Yet this was only the beginning.

Rumbling sounds resounded one after another.

Jiang Ran crashed through more than ten large or small trees all the way backward before his entire body was imprinted in a large tree that required three to five people to hug.

It was branded on top of it except for a ‘big’ glyph.

He shook his head slightly and then looked up again, but Song Wei and that silver cicada in the lead had already arrived before him.

Song Wei had once again condensed his Changhe Sword Intent to cover the sky after this divine assistance.

With a sweep of the short sword in his hand, thousands of sword qi was like the Milky Way falling into the nine heavens, heading straight for Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran perched on the tree, in the blink of an eye, was swallowed up by the sword gas, sword gas running like a dragon, wherever he passed, tree debris flying, sword gas vertical and horizontal.

Between the spread, a gap was hardened in the middle of this forest.

“Jiang Ran ！！！！”

The Eldest Princess watched such a scene from afar, and for an instant, her eyes glazed over.

She could never have imagined that Jiang Ran, who had mastered the entire situation just a short while ago, would end up like this in the twinkling of an eye.

She also couldn’t figure out how the Silver Cicada at the head of the group had actually recovered himself?

She also didn’t dare to think about what would happen to herself and the others next.

She was now, the thoughts in her head were scattered, but in the end, they compiled into a huge despair.

Initially, she felt that this despair was because of their situation.

But when she couldn’t help but rush towards the leading Silver Cicada, she realized …… that her despair was only because of one reason!

Jiang Ran was dead!

Although there wasn’t any evidence to prove it for the time being.

And Jiang Ran’s horrible to the extreme martial arts may not really be killed under this joint sneak attack.

But at this moment, the Princess couldn’t think of that much.

Nor could she care about that much.

Her eyes were filled with the color of blood due to her anger, and her body was far faster than her brain.

However, even faster than her, were Jian Wusheng and Daoist Lack of Reality.

In a single turn of their bodies, the two had stopped the Eldest Princess.

The Rapunzel angrily shouted:

“Get out of the way! They killed Jiang Ran …… This Palace is going to make them pay for their lives!!!”

These words made Song Wei, who was still searching for Jiang Ran, and that leading Silver Cicada stop their movements at the same time, and turned back to the Eldest Princess, who was so enraged that her hair subconsciously flew up.

At that moment, without even thinking about it, the two of them had already pounced towards the Eldest Princess.

It didn’t matter whether Jiang Ran was alive or dead.

Their initial goal was never the Eldest Princess.

After this battle, even if Jiang Ran was still alive, he might be seriously injured.

The most important thing now was to kill the Eldest Princess!

The Dao Lacking Realist held the Floating Sinker and said ”Immeasurable Heavenly Father”.

The Silver Cicada at the head didn’t want to waste time, yet after seeing him, he still hesitated and said softly:

“Get out of the way …… I don’t want to kill you until it’s necessary.”

“Odd, odd, dang odd ……”

Dao Lack of Reality then shot a sideways glance:

“How did you act so realistically just now? Surprisingly, we couldn’t see the slightest flaw?”

“Why bother acting?”

Silver Cicada let out a faint smile:

“Old bull, have you not heard of what is …… the Eternal Life Candle!”

Eternal Life Candle!

Dao Lack of Reality and Sword Wusheng looked at each other at the same time.

As people with such seniority in the Jianghu, it was naturally impossible for them to not know what an Eternal Life Candle was.

Back then, when Windflame Arashiyama made the Twelve Heavenly Craftsmanships, there were six pieces that were not known to anyone, and the booklet that recorded these six Twelve Heavenly Craftsmanships had long since dissipated in the Jianghu.

However, among the six pieces that are known to the public are the burnt-tailed zither, the heavenly sound xiao, the Ruyi lock, the star picking hand, the purple jade bushel, and the …… eternal life candle!

However, everyone was also very clear about one thing.

The Eternal Life Candle couldn’t really give people the ability to live forever.

After all, Wind Fire Arashiyama had already been dead for a thousand years.

If he really had the ability to create something that could make people immortal, how could he have died?

The Blood Cicada almost had six of the Twelve Heavenly Artifacts in his grasp.

The heavenly sound xiao, the star picking hand, the purple jade bushel, and the Ruyi lock, these were the four pieces.

If it was said that they also had an Eternal Life Candle, then I’m afraid that no one would be surprised by this.

It was just that nowadays, it seemed that the Eternal Life Candle didn’t have the ability to make one live forever.

However, it at least had the ability to tell a person to recover immediately after whatever kind of injury they received.

Even if the dantian qi sea is damaged and the internal energy is completely lost, it can be recovered in the blink of an eye.

And after listening to the head Silver Cicada bluntly explaining this matter.

Whether it was Sword Wusheng or Daoist Lack of Reality.

They all understood what kind of plan the head Silver Cicada had made under Jiang Ran’s pressure.

It was naturally false that they would surrender their hands.

All of them were old in the jianghu, no one would believe it.

Jiang Ran’s response didn’t have any problems either.

Let him dissipate his internal energy and return to ordinary, if willing, then it is really tied up, unwilling, then play ……

But the problem was, Jiang Ran didn’t expect that there was an Eternal Life Candle on the body of the leading Silver Cicada.

It could allow him to recover his internal strength as before in the twinkling of an eye.

Even though Jiang Ran was cautious by nature, he was always on guard against them and had not taken them lightly.

But after seeing a person, who had disabled his own martial arts, he still couldn’t help but relax a little.

What the head Silver Cicada demanded was exactly this.

That was why Jiang Ran was able to perform his Canghai Viewing and face off with Song Wei without any fear.

The moment he killed the Heavenly Fury Divine Blade and pushed straight into Song Wei was the moment Jiang Ran became complacent.

At the same time, it was also the most important moment in which he turned defeat into victory and completely turned the situation around.

Now that Jiang Ran had disappeared without a trace under the rolling river of the Long River Sword Intent, whether he was alive or dead, it was a heavenly good opportunity for them.

And such a situation was also the limit of what they could do under the current circumstances.

Therefore, after uttering the three words Eternal Life Candle, the Silver Cicada in the lead no longer gave the slightest chance.

With a single palm together, he raised his hand and struck.

His palm technique was exquisite, not only was the move subtle, but more importantly, his lent his palm power to strike out the [Paragon True Qi].

This true qi looked huge and terrifying, yet what was truly amazing was not the power he possessed on the surface.

Rather, it was the fact that the power of the palm always twisted and destroyed the opponent’s moves without even realizing it.

Tiny tremors, jagged, yet able to cause the opponent to lose sight of the opponent.

Even the internal force condensed by the externalization of true qi would be greatly reduced under his jagged true qi!

This was a supreme martial art created by the head Silver Cicada, which he named the [Parallels Turning Wheel Technique].

This skill is very powerful and is not detrimental to anything.

Now a [Senator’s Palm] wrapped with [Senator’s True Qi] in the twinkling of an eye, it had already arrived in front of Dao Lacking Real Person.

Dao Lacking Real Person did not hesitate, both palms flipped, seemingly using the palm, but in reality, the floating dust in his hand turned, as if it were a steel whip and directly lashed down.

“Sculptor’s little skill.”

The head of the Silver Cicada laughed lightly, backhand turn, palm facing up, the Senate Turning Wheel skill a run, that dust suddenly fell down, in the distance from his palm within nearly three inches, each of the dust is jumping around, a huge strand of internal force, along the dust handle into the palm of the Dao lack of real people.

Dao lack of real man ate a shock, foot a little, running [infinite innate power], and counteract it.

A strand of internal force through the transmission of the four directions, good at this time from the crowd has been quite a distance, but also not to be affected by the fish again.

At the same time, on the side of Song Wei has also fought with Jian Wusheng.

When swordsmen met, it was natural for them to fight against each other.

Although Jian Wusheng was a contemporary expert, Song Wei’s martial arts was still above him.

Jian Wusheng was able to fight with Shan Cong, and in the end, he was able to crush him, but when he faced Song Wei, he was a bit more than capable of doing so.

The two of them exchanged dozens of moves in the blink of an eye, and at the beginning, Jian Wusheng was at a steady disadvantage being beaten back and forth.

Only he retreated but not defeated, hard to hold on.

But after these dozens of moves, Song Wei’s moves were somewhat scattered.

He had already executed the [Changhe Sword Intent] twice in succession today, and now his body was also a bit empty.

He wanted to quickly kill Jian Wusheng and then behead the Eldest Princess to completely end today’s matter.

However, Jian Wusheng was not a soft persimmon to be bullied, and could not be pinned down for a while.

Song Wei began to worry that Jiang Ran, who did not know whether he was alive or dead, might jump out from some nook or cranny at any time, and at that time he could not help but fail to achieve his goal, and I was afraid that he would have to walk on the Bridge of Naihe.

That would be the end of it.

If the mind is unstable, how can the sword in the hand be stabilized?

Jian Wusheng is a top swordsman, eyes sharp aura flashed, snorting sound, sword straight to Song Wei throat.

Song Wei was shocked to this point, immediately stabilized his mind and raised his eyes again, between the brightness and the sharpness.

“Good!!!”

Seeing this, Jian Wusheng was not only not annoyed that he had missed a good opportunity.

Instead, he loudly praised.

His martial arts had reached the current level for a long time, and when he walked the rivers and lakes on weekdays, the opponents he encountered were often able to be resolved in three moves or two.

A swordsman’s swordsmanship was never something that could be hidden in a box to allow its sharpness to grow more and more prevalent.

He needs opponents, he needs good opponents.

Today, he was surprised to meet Shan Cong, but Shan Cong’s martial arts skills were not enough.

Today’s Song Wei, but no more suitable.

If he was able to use this to advance further, it would be a thousand pieces of gold that would be hard to replace.

Therefore, when he realized that Song Wei had stabilized the mind sword realm, not only did he not absolutely regret it, but on the contrary, his heart was overjoyed, so much so that his sword qi was even more victorious.

The two great swordsmen show what they have learned, a moment only to hit the surrounding rocks crumble, trees toppled.

Two people footsteps all over the four directions of the land, like a dragon swimming in the earth.

All kinds of sword moves were at their fingertips.

Sword Wusheng also from the initial steady underdog, into occupy the upper hand, as Song Wei stabilized the mind, and then fell into the underdog.

At this point, but gradually from the downwind stabilized the sword intention sword realm, eyes brightly, inwardly, calculating thousands of sword moves.

Always be able to in the time of the moment, to perform a surprise sword.

At this point in the battle, both people’s bodies also had wounds.

Both were injured by the sharp swords on each other’s bodies.

With a turn of the longsword in Jian Wusheng’s hand, the Seven Swords of Lifelessness hardened and erupted into an unprecedented eighth sword, the sword’s intent was directed towards Song Wei’s throat in an overpowering manner.

Song Wei’s short sword in his hand turned, did not pay attention to Jian Wusheng’s life-threatening sword, just a slight turn of the head, the sword in his hand abruptly released.

The two silhouettes passed by.

Jian Wusheng stood on the spot, no longer moving, while Song Wei’s neck was clattering with blood.

He reached out and gently tapped on his neck:

“For another ten years …… those who use swords in this jianghu shall be honored by you.”

Song Wei said this, and did not bother to look at Jian Wusheng.

And Jian Wusheng had not fallen down, nor had he moved.

It just stood there …… quietly as if it was a statue.

He was sword qi inertia body, although did not die, but as long as the slightest delusion of movement, the body stored this touch of sword qi, will completely stir up his five viscera and six bowels.

Therefore, it was not that he did not want to move, he could not move.

Song Wei had already come to the Princess’s front step by step.

On the way, he also glanced at Silver Cicada, who was fighting with Dao Deficient Realist, and frowned.

These two were fighting in a viscous manner with no end in sight.

Dao Deficient Realist was after all the Golden Cicada State Master, and the Silver Cicada at the head of the group certainly had the upper hand in this exchange, but it wasn’t so easy to get rid of this old Niubizi.

The good thing is that nowadays this is no longer important.

As long as the Rapunzel was killed, all would be over.

However, just as he was carrying his short sword and was about to arrive in front of the Elder Princess, a silhouette stopped him again.

His heart first tightened, but when he looked up to see, he realized that it wasn’t Jiang Ran who came.

Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

The one who came was Xu Mu.

“Get out of the way ……”

Song Wei frowned, although it wasn’t Jiang Ran that made him put his heart down, but how come things were going so badly today?

Always running into heavy obstacles?

Now this old eunuch with shallow experience in hand-to-hand combat, who couldn’t even cope with a single Scarlet Cicada Wing, dared to get in his way?

And although his mouth was saying that this old eunuch should get out of the way, under his hand he didn’t give the slightest chance.

The short sword in his palm was like a poisonous snake.

A rub and a turn, like a viper spitting out a letter.

Xu Mu running internal force to block, the result only felt a cold arm, look down, has more a smear of blood, not waiting to react to the other side of the sword is how to hurt themselves, see the sword wink to, as if in all directions.

For a moment subconsciously wanted to hold his head and run away.

“Why are you still so useless ah ……”

A voice suddenly came from behind the eldest princess.

The eldest princess’s eyes had been staring at the silver cicada in the lead, hating that she couldn’t eat it alive.

For their own safety is not put in mind.

But at this time this voice into the ear, the whole person seems to come back to life.

She turned around fiercely, and realized that Jiang Ran did not know when, was standing beside him.

She subconsciously rushed to Jiang Ran’s front, examined up and down, and found that apart from the torn corner of her clothes, there were no other injuries.

“…… You’re fine?”

The Eldest Princess murmured and opened her mouth.

Jiang Ran grinned:

“Worried about me?”

The Eldest Princess gritted her teeth and suddenly leapt up, directly pouncing onto Jiang Ran’s body, her two legs deadlocked around his waist:

“Not dead why don’t you come out, you let this palace bite you to death!!!”

Jiang Ran said as he reached out to press down on the Princess’s falling lisp:

“That old Taoist priest and Sword Wusheng, clearly want to tire me out.

“This Silver Cicada has good tactics, to the extent that the two of them can join forces and chop up my clothes.

“Then what’s wrong with me taking the opportunity to rest a little and letting them put forth their efforts as well?

“You quickly come down, said a dynasty of the eldest princess, this kind of virtue like what appearance?”

Where does the Princess care what he says?

Under the infestation of the lost and found emotion, she really didn’t want to let go of Jiang Ran.

And Jiang Ran this time can’t care about her, opened his mouth and said:

“Three steps back, two steps to the right, lower your head, he wants to chop your head off.”

The moment Jiang Ran opened his mouth, Song Wei, who was already startled, was truly taken aback.

Just as the Eldest Princess was elated, he was all but disheartened.

He wanted to turn around and leave, but Xu Mu stopped him again.

Hard as law let him leave a step.

In a fit of rage, he was about to execute a killing move, but then Jiang Ran’s words came.

Xu Mu to Jiang Ran’s martial arts admiration to the extreme, immediately followed the words, even if the sky sword curtain cover, also do not care, just listen to how Jiang Ran action, and not surprisingly, this sky sword rain suddenly can not hurt themselves in the slightest.

Xu Mu was instantly overjoyed and couldn’t help but look at Jiang Ran:

“And then?”

Jiang Ran hesitated slightly and suddenly glanced at Shen Tu Lie who was watching the battle not far away.

Finding some despair in his eyes, he grinned and slowly spoke:

“Come, I’ll teach you.”
