Chapter 216: Chapter 67: Winds Rise, Clouds Fall_2The only really uncomfortable thing was the Forbidden Magic Device; the Asura Ghost Mask could no longer be used. However, considering the other party might also possess a Magic Artifact, it was better to just ban it. Xiao Jie first summoned Xiong Da, then decisively chose to accept. A flash of white light, and a dueling symbol of crossed swords appeared above their heads, followed by a countdown number, 10. Around them, a massive circle of light formed, from which neither contestant could escape, and since surrender was prohibited, it meant that even if both parties wanted to stop fighting, they couldn’t; one of them had to die today, a true fight to the death. Seeing this setup, players around them began cheering enthusiastically. This kind of life and death duel is boring if someone surrenders midway, now everyone is just waiting for the show to begin. The crowd was buzzing with discussion. "Two against one, I see that Hidden Moon Following Wind might not be without a chance." "No chance, anyone over level 20 has two core skills, that bear is too slow, just a meat target, useless." "I bet on Cloud Guest to win, who wants to bet against me?" "Damn, only a fool would bet with you." At this moment, the two opponents stood facing each other, Xiao Jie’s Xiong Da also bellowing menacingly beside him. They slowly approached each other, the atmosphere growing increasingly tense. Cloud Guest was nervous inside, this was his first time in a life and death duel, and couldn’t help thinking of some martial arts movie duel scenes. Should he set up the atmosphere first? Suddenly, with a sound of drawing a sword from its sheath, he loudly said, "This sword is named Ning Shuang, weighs three taels and thirteen taels, and is forged from cold iron..." The players around started cheering again. Xiao Jie didn’t engage, and as the countdown ended, the names above their heads turned black; he swiftly changed to bow and arrow, shooting an arrow out. Damn, even at this moment you play with a sense of ritual, there’s no such fuss in a life or death duel, winning is everything. While shooting the arrow, he commanded, Xiong Da—Attack! Cloud Guest, having his monologue interrupted, was immediately annoyed and slightly embarrassed. He easily dodged Xiao Jie’s arrow, a somersault evading Xiong Da’s fierce pounce, and charged towards Xiao Jie head-on. Xiao Jie also quickly switched to a single saber and shield. The two rapidly closed in on each other. Gale Rapid Stab! Cloud Guest stepped forward, thrusting his sword repeatedly like a gale, this attack wasn’t high in damage but the attack frequency was incredibly high, capable of inflicting great damage if it connected continuously. Phantom Traceless! Xiao Jie didn’t hesitate, immediately activating the saber skill effect, a temporal after-image of a saber stroke moved towards Cloud Guest, while his real body instantly disappeared from the spot. Cloud Guest delighted in seeing Xiao Jie choosing to clash directly with the saber, but as the blade passed, the Hidden Moon Following Wind in front of him vanished instantly, and the next second, Xiao Jie’s figure emerged behind him. One Cut, Two Pieces! Xiao Jie’s saber struck Cloud Guest’s unprotected back. -92! The Cold Moon Saber, true to its top-quality status, dealt 92 damage, of course, it also had to do with Cloud Guest’s low defense; both were agility-based melee professions, both rather fragile. Cloud Guest was thoroughly shocked, what skill was this? Could it be a Spell? No way, this guy was clearly a Beast Tamer... Illusion Destruction Nine Forms! Xiao Jie then activated the attack module of the Illusion Destruction Divine Sword, aiming to connect a few more strikes. Though shocked, Cloud Guest was quick to react, rolling forward to avoid Xiao Jie’s subsequent attack, and immediately getting up to initiate a Blocking Skill. Sealing the Door! Clang clang clang! The sound of metal clashing gave Cloud Guest a slight reassurance. This skill was quite effective in close-up defense; now, it was his turn! High-level Combat Skill—Chasing Wind Sword! This was a high-level combat skill, his form flickered, following the sword, a shadow streaked towards Xiao Jie to thrust directly at him. Xiao Jie was unfazed. He was very aware of their strengths and weaknesses; he was six levels lower than his opponent, lacking a core skill, and his blood volume was significantly less; close combat was definitely disadvantageous. The combat skills he knew, his opponent would only know more and stronger. His greatest advantage was still the Supreme Divine Skill of the Illusion Destruction Divine Sword; given this, he had to maximize the power of this supreme martial arts. If there was a wheelchair to be used, you’ve got to use it. Without hesitation, he used Phantom Traceless again. Whoosh! Cloud Guest’s sword pierced through the Hidden Moon Following Wind in front of him but felt no impact of hitting flesh, immediately fearing the worst. The next instant, Xiao Jie’s figure appeared once again behind Cloud Guest. High-level Combat Skill—Thrust! A thrust hitting directly at Cloud Guest’s back. Phew! -67! Another large chunk of life value gone. Cloud Guest was completely shocked, was this a body movement skill? How did it have avatar creation? Instant Teleportation and Clone Technique? This was clearly the effect of a Spell. But no, he had banned all Magic Artifacts... In the blink of an eye, he had lost a third of his blood volume. (No! This can’t go on.) At this moment, the spectators were also exclaiming in surprise. "Wow, this body movement skill is pretty strong, huh?" "What skill is this? I’ve never heard of it before." "Could it be the legendary Shifting Shadows?" "No, Shifting Shadows is only about speed, this guy also has a phantom avatar, even more powerful than Shifting Shadows!" "Three seconds." In the crowd, a gray-robed Taoist suddenly murmured. "Three seconds what?" A nearby player asked confused. "Nothing." The Taoist smiled and continued watching the fight.
