C57 War God of the Underworld an Appraisal of Chi Xiao by He Quan Shou (1/2)
The origin of the art of deception was very ancient, there were many techniques, and it was famous for its Five Great Arithmetic. But what Gu Chixiao had learned in his life was the Crossbow Technique.
And there had always been disagreements between Gu Chixiao and him.
Before Gu Chixiao became famous, he had met Zhang Tianrann once, and there should have been some conflict in their sects. At that time, Zhang Tianrann did not take him to heart and only treated him as a successor of the art of deception. Who would have thought that after many years, Gu Chixiao would gradually become a Grandmaster and become Zhang Tianrann's rival?
The grudge between the two could be resolved later.
Tong Duan wanted to use the blind archer to kill the Chinese Warlock, but he was blocked by the Crimson Cloud Treasured Sword of the Star of Woe family. Thus, it was Zhang Tianrann's turn to fight back.
Seeing that Tong Duan was using the way of war, Zhang Tianrann also followed the rules and fought back with the way of war.
Zhang Tianrann told the two brothers of Huang Family to use the most commonly used method of water war on the Yangtze River in China β β Iron Lock Crossing River.
Of course, the paths of Underworld Warfare and water battles were different.
Tong Duan's wooden boat was supported by iron chains in the water, unable to move.
Huang Tiehyan burned the wooden boat through the air. However, Tong Duan's abilities were not restricted by this method. Instead, he transferred the flames onto the chains and burned them to pieces.
With the iron lock broken, the tungsten wood vessel continued forward and arrived before Zhang Tianrann and the rest.
As the boat got closer, Zhang Tianrann saw that Tong Duan's boat was brought over from Japan.
The wooden boat that Tong Duan entered the ancient path on was a Atakebune from Japan. It was a type of battleship that was used in water battles from Japan, and was quite advanced in ancient Japan. Not only was the cabin designed to attack from all directions, there were also three compartments at the bottom of the boat.
The iron chain had broken the middle cabin of the Atakebune, but the Atakebune was not affected at all. When Zhang Tianrann saw that Tong Duan's Atakebune s' deck and cabin were filled with Puppets, he knew he had miscalculated. Although Tong Duan only had himself as a Yin Yang Master, the things he brought with him far exceeded what Zhang Tianrann had imagined.
In terms of the number of Warlocks, Zhang Tianrann had the advantage, but in terms of preparation of magic tools for fighting techniques, Tong Duan far surpassed him.
Zhang Tianrann and Tong Duan exchanged blows for two rounds. Now it was time to face each other empty-handed.
The closer they got, the clearer the spells were. Every move he made was being watched by the other party.
Only now did Zhang Tianrann know that Tong Duan had not only come prepared, he had also prepared for who knows how many years.
In Tong Duan's eyes, other than Zhang Tianrann, what surprised him was that Sun Ding actually appeared. He received the information too late, all he knew was that the Four Major Clans were here to help Zhang Tianrann. Sun Ding arrived late, and by the time he arrived, he had already entered the ancient path.
During the confrontation, Tong Duan had been staring deadly at the Crimson Cloud Treasured Sword. Who was this person in front of him?
At that time, Tong Duan had asked Sun Ding who gave him this sword.
Sun Ding said it was his.
Of course, this couldn't fool Tong Duan. This was because Tong Duan recognized the treasure sword, and had fought with the sword's owner before. Tong Duan then said: βThe owner of this sword is Gu Chixiao, I have seen him personally.β
Sun Ding had no way to lie, he could only say that Gu Chixiao gave it to him.
Tong Duan thought for a long time before saying that when he saw Gu Chixiao, Gu Chixiao had told him before that even if he lost his life, he would not give the sword to anyone. Because it was a treasure that he had obtained from a sect by chance. This treasured sword had been hidden in his sect for hundreds of years before finally falling into his hands.
Only after hearing the conversation between Tong Duan and Tong Duan, did Zhang Tianrann realize that Gu Chixiao and his friend was very old, and that was why he had sent Sun Ding to help when he knew of Tong Duan's capabilities. He even gave the Crimson Cloud Treasured Sword to Sun Ding.
Sun Ding asked Tong Duan if he recognized Master Gu. Tong Duan was honest, he had lost to the sword all those years ago.
I have to start from decades ago.
