Chapter 208: Blood

Chapter 208 Blood

A drop of fresh blood splashed into Li Huowang's slightly open mouth, stunned as he was, "Salty, fishy, and bitter."

Li Huowang had no time to taste much, for the long halberd gleaming with cold light had already pierced Jin Shanzhao's body, smashing toward his face.

This attack was originally aimed at him, Jin Shanzhao was merely incidental.

Li Huowang subconsciously switched positions rapidly, shifting his true body two inches to the left.

"Boom~" The long halberd pierced through Li Huowang's head, heavily smashing onto the ground behind him, shattering the earth into pieces.

Unscathed, Li Huowang looked down at Jin Shanzhao on the ground, watching the smile on his face gradually vanish, replaced by confusion.

He opened his mouth toward Li Huowang, seeming to want to entrust something, yet the light in his eyes dimmed rapidly.

Looking at the two sections of Jin Shanzhao's corpse on the ground, Li Huowang felt blocked up in his heart; things should not have developed this way.

Jin Shanzhao, who just planned to unfold his grand ambitions, was dead, died silently. Like a joke.

"Clippity-clop" The continuous sound of hooves rang out from afar, Li Huowang looked up toward that side, the fire in his heart burning fiercer.

When it reached the peak, he roared at that familiar visor: "Peng Longteng!!"

Peng Longteng, leading over a hundred cavalrymen, rode her exclusive iron steed slowly into the pass, having hid for so long, in the final moment she ultimately caught up.

She used her single eye through the hole on the visor, seeing the unscathed Li Huowang, a cold smile appearing on her face covered in tattoos.

"Indeed you have some skills, I underestimated you before, but this time there will be no more, able to injure this general, you have some ability, since so, I'll leave you a whole corpse, Giddyup!"

Over a hundred iron cavalry roared simultaneously, carrying a rumbling sound, carrying a momentum like toppling mountains and seas charging toward the isolated and weak Li Huowang.

Just when they had charged halfway, Peng Longteng suddenly pointed her finger at Li Huowang, "Shoot!"

All cavalrymen drew their bows simultaneously, a curtain of arrow rain threw directly toward Li Huowang's direction.

Facing such a desperate situation, Li Huowang did not dodge at all, directly kicked off the ground with his right leg, held the Heavenly Book overhead, charging against the iron cavalry before him.

This is a plain, it is the cavalry's home ground, running is definitely not an option, now all that can be done is fight to the death!

"Whoosh~" An arrow shot from a tricky corner, secretly piercing through Li Huowang's chest.

Yet this still had no effect, Li Huowang separated his physical body and ethereal body again.

He was already very close to them. Close enough to see the expressions on their faces.

"That is a trick! That kid must be nearby! Use the method from back then against that black-faced monk to force him out!!"

With a rustle, Li Huowang saw the entire line of cavalry quickly scatter, circling around him.

While running, these thief-soldiers constantly kept throwing shots around Li Huowang.

They did not miss any spot, seeming to want to shoot this place full, forcing Li Huowang out.

"Puchi" sound, a sharp long awl with barbs stabbed into Li Huowang's palm.

Quickly twisted and lifted, accompanied by Li Huowang's hysterical scream, the bone marrow inside the forearm was pulled out. Mixed with blood sprinkled onto the "Record of the Great Thousand".

The war horses running fast suddenly seemed to step into horse pits out of thin air, following their owners their front legs suddenly folded, crashing toward the ground.

This caused a chain reaction. Immediately people and horses overturned in a patch, the arrow rain was also forced to stop.

Suddenly Li Huowang felt darkness above his head, Peng Longteng raised the giant halberd and chopped down.

She did not chop Li Huowang, she chopped the "Record of the Great Thousand" in his hand!

When Li Huowang picked up the "Record of the Great Thousand" and quickly rolled left to dodge, he decisively kicked off with his right foot, stepping on the armor plates on the war horse, raising his sword to stab at Peng Longteng's visor.

He planned to do it again just like before.

"Ding!" After metal collided, it emitted a crisp sound.

And this time Peng Longteng did not attack Li Huowang's body, but held the halberd in one hand directly sweeping across a thousand armies.

A whistling sound rose, everything around Peng Longteng was included by her within the attack range.

Li Huowang in mid-air effortfully leaned his body back, narrowly dodging it.

But the next moment, Peng Longteng seemed to perceive Li Huowang's position, directly kicked off with her right foot, kicking onto Li Huowang's stomach.

Li Huowang vomiting blood was kicked into a earthen house by the street, directly collapsing that broken house, dust rising everywhere.

When Peng Longteng leading her troops slowly surrounded it, waiting for the dust to settle, she unexpectedly found there was no figure of Li Huowang inside.

"Earth Escape Technique?" This thought just arose, veteran warrior Peng Longteng suddenly felt extreme danger, quickly flipped over and directly dismounted.

The next moment, the abdomen of her war horse split open without warning.

Waiting for the war horse like the previous Jin Shanzhao to be completely sliced in half, Li Huowang's ethereal figure wrapped in blood, only then belatedly drilled out from underground.

Just now, Li Huowang discovered a new use of his ability, as long as he shifts the ethereal figure's position downward buried into the earth, then himself standing outside can achieve invisibility.

And this perhaps will be an important means for himself to defeat Peng Longteng.

After finishing, Li Huowang holding the sword landed heavily, the body wrapped in blood below him also sank into the underground again.

Looking at Peng Longteng who had already dismounted beside him, Li Huowang in invisible state holding the sword crept toward her side.

But just when he was about to arrive, Peng Longteng quickly stepped forward several steps, directly pulled down a thief-soldier by hand, flipping onto the horse.

Cold laughter came from behind Peng Longteng's visor, "Kid, don't think knowing some little tricks, you can do whatever you want, those little tricks are not omnipotent, the Art of War of the Strategists is far more useful than yours, just like one of the stratagems called Diverting Attention from the East to Strike the West!"

Finished speaking, Peng Longteng led the horse, leading other thief-soldiers rushing toward the distance.

Li Huowang just stunned for a moment, the next moment his whole body immediately shivered with cold, the place they went was the direction of Bai Lingmiao and the others!

Li Huowang immediately turned to rush toward that side, but people do not run as fast as horses, he had not arrived, the horse herd arrived.

Hearing the women's screams from afar, Li Huowang quickly spread out the "Record of the Great Thousand".

Accompanied by heart-piercing pain, was the people and horses overturning in the distance.

Sharp bone spikes drilled out from those swollen fingers, spinning around, similarly flying toward that side, immediately after, Li Huowang lifted his clothes, hands grabbing both sides of the wound, Li Huowang with bulging veins on his face suddenly roared.

A mass of blurry flesh and blood was heavily slapped by him onto the "Record of the Great Thousand".
