Chapter 40: Shield Symbol

  Ma Qianjun's leg was incredibly powerful, and it kicked up a series of sharp whistles. If he had kicked ten willows floating on the clouds to death, Ma Qianjun would have felt relieved in his heart when this kick landed.

  But just as the force touched, Ma Qianjun's eyebrows were already tightly locked, and he had a feeling of something being off. This leg, although it couldn't be said to have kicked cotton, didn't seem to have kicked on human flesh either, but rather seemed to have kicked on steel plate.

  Liu Suiyun was also frightened by Ma Qianjun's swift and powerful kick, now his body is completely exposed under Ma Qianjun's fast legs. This kick came too suddenly and quickly, he didn't even have time to block it, whether it was a flying kick or a punch, everything was a fraction of a second too slow.

  Even if he managed to block Ma Qianjun's unbelievable and fierce kick, the cost would not be as simple as retreating one or two steps. Therefore, at the critical moment of life and death, Liu Suizhen could no longer care about so much and directly launched his final killer move.

  He slid his left hand downwards, and the tip of his finger already had an additional two-inch-wide white talisman paper. The talisman paper only had a small golden shield drawn on it, but nothing else. However, in the next moment, this talisman paper was already burning at a rapid speed on Liu Suoyun's fingertips.

  Even without the help of the wind, the entire white paper had already burned up at an astonishing speed, and the golden small shield in the paper suddenly materialized in the flames, then suddenly expanded and rushed towards Ma Qianjun's Tian She Xuan Ling leg.

  "Bang... Bang... Bang!"

  The golden shield, now substantialized, instantly had a diameter of several feet, and as soon as it came into contact with Ma Qianjun's Tian She Tui, it exploded with a series of dull, muffled sounds. The force of the impact was unimaginable, and countless golden lights burst forth on the surface of the shield.

  Whether this golden shield is a fairy's illusion or not, Ma Qianjun's leg indeed has the flavor of thunder and momentum, its power has reached an astonishing level, as it is said "one force can defeat hundreds of wills", when the power reaches a certain limit, it can be said that no matter what gods, Buddhas, Taoists, or demons, they can all be broken with one force, therefore, the golden light on the golden shield burst out ring by ring, and finally the entire golden shield was like being ignited, shining brightly like the morning sun.

  But this was already the limit of the golden shield, and in the next moment, Ma Qianjun's divine leg had thoroughly shattered the golden shield that Liu Suizhen had conjured up, continuing to attack towards Liu Suizhen's lower body. However, his strength had already decreased by 90%, and even Liu Suizhen himself was able to free up a hand.

  If there is a knowledgeable master present, he can see at a glance that the talisman held by Liu Suizhen is not some common product found everywhere, but a truly rare and precious top-grade talisman. The reason why Liu Suizhen can activate it so quickly is naturally at no small cost.

  Liu Su Yun used a drop of his own blood to activate the golden shield charm, directly using the blood as fuel to ignite it in the first instance. However, this method, although quick, greatly reduced the power of the golden shield charm, failing to block Ma Qian Jun's Heaven Snake Xuan Ling kick.

  For Liu Suiyun, this was almost the only way out, although after consuming that drop of essence and blood that had been condensed for who-knows-how-many days, he suffered a severe internal injury and lost his last trump card, but it was also Liu Suiyun's only thread of life.

  At this moment, his blood was boiling with energy. His original strength of ten had been reduced to six or seven at most, but it instead stirred up his fighting spirit: "For Miss Gu, I'll give it my all!"

  Ma Qianjun's leg was already old, and Liu Suizhen immediately jumped up, his legs touching Ma Qianjun's thigh, wanting to use it as a springboard to kill him directly. Just as his left foot touched Ma Qianjun's thigh, Ma Qianjun almost lost his balance, roaring angrily in his mouth.

  Liu Suiyun's leg was successful, and he immediately understood that Ma Qianjun's previous kick must have been a killer move. With a calm heart, he kicked both legs towards Ma Qianjun's chest like raindrops. For a moment, the shadow of his feet flew by, and Ma Qianjun's Tian She Xuan Ling hand swung an unknown number of times, colliding with Liu Suiyun's swift kick over a hundred times.

  Ma Qianjun's road to heaven, the snake and the mysterious spirit, can be said to be good at attacking but not defending. Although he is now guarding the gate, his hands have been hit by Liu Suoyun's quick legs countless times. No matter how he wraps around, he cannot avoid the force of the counterattack. His tiger mouth is already numb, but Ma Qianjun refuses to retreat, shouting: "Xiaoshui..."

  Just as his voice fell, Liu Suizhen suddenly threw a straight punch, this punch had been brewing for a long time, and the previous series of quick kicks were just covering up for this punch. As a result, this strike almost reached the limit of Liu Suizhen's speed, with even a hint of Ma Qianjun's thunderous flavor.

  Ma Qianjun had just seen Liu Suoyun take action, and with a straight punch carrying the power of a thousand kilograms, he directly smashed into Ma Qianjun's chest. Ma Qianjun was instantly blown flying out by this powerful punch, but before his body even hit the ground, Liu Suoyun's legs had already kicked countless times in mid-air.

  "Bang...... Bang...... Bang...... Bang...... Bang!"

  Liu Suiyun brought out all his skills to the extreme, and the fierce leg didn't know how many times it kicked Ma Qianjun's vital parts. Ma Qianjun was directly kicked by Liu Suiyun into the bluestone of the Tian Nu Temple, and he didn't know how many pieces of bone were broken off. He was covered in blood, his entire body deeply embedded in the bluestone.

  Liu Suizhong threw another incredibly powerful straight punch, which directly blasted Ma Qianjun and made him let out a loud cry. He was no longer able to stand upright and fell forward with a thud. With Gu Yinghua's guidance, Liu Suizhong became more and more skilled in his movements, and for a time, he didn't know how many swift punches and kicks he had thrown before temporarily retreating several steps back.

  Even if he was a master of the isolated mountain boundary, he couldn't withstand so many heavy blows. What's more, Ma Qianjun was just a martial artist of the Yuan Dragon Clan. At this point, after this round of furious punches, he had already reached the last moment of his life. With unclear consciousness, he said: "Little water... water... I've smelled your scent. You've finally caught up with me. If you want to entangle me to death, then entangle me to death..."

  "I want you to be entwined with me forever..."

  Liu followed the cloud and let out a long sigh, Ma Qianjun, this formidable enemy, had finally fallen.

  He was one of the most difficult opponents in his life, and he had been blown away by Ma Qianjun countless times. Every time he thought there was a little turning point, Ma Qianjun would still defeat him with a single move of Tian She Xuan Ling Shou.

  Even with Gu Yinghua's guidance, there were times when he thought he couldn't hold on any longer, fortunately the final victory was mine.

  Just after solving this arch-nemesis, what Liu Suoyun was concerned about was another problem. He had just turned his head around when Gu Yinghua's hand gently patted him on the shoulder: "Fortunately you won! Several times I was so scared that I almost shouted out loud, this Ma Qianjun is really too terrifying."

  At the moment when Ma Qianjun made that sudden kick, she had already screamed out loud for Liu Suizhen's safety. Liu Suizhen couldn't help but smile: "I am fighting to the death with this thief for Miss Gu's sake, how can I not win!"

  "Not bad, at least this time you fought to the death for me!" Gu Yinghua smiled: "Fought for me!"

  Liu followed the cloud and moved his legs, looking at Ma Qianjun who was kicked into the stone wall, still congratulating himself: "This villain is not only lawless, but also a very strong hard hand! Fortunately, thanks to the eldest sister's reward of one finger, I was able to win by luck. Ah, yes, Miss Gu, are you okay?"

  He had seen that Gu Yinghua was still as stunning as ever, although the corners of her eyes still bore tears, she had regained her usual proud confidence, but in her heart, she was still worried about the tribulations Gu Yinghua had endured.

  He clearly remembered that for the sake of that incredibly slender finger, he had gained great benefits, but Gu Yinghua would have to use his spiritual power to withstand the "Silk Thunderbolt Tribulation", although he didn't know what this thing was, but as long as it was related to thunderbolts, they were all extremely difficult to deal with.

  Gu Yinghua smiled slightly, raising her head and saying with a carefree tone: "It's just a trivial Thunderbolt Tribulation, how could it possibly harm even a single hair of mine? Alright then, are you alright?"

  "No problem!" Liu Suoyun clapped his hands and said, "My state is so good that it can't be better. If I get a good sleep, I think I can break through the Yu Long realm and directly rush into the Geshan realm."

  This bitter battle has allowed Liu Suoyun to gain countless insights in actual combat, and he even learned a bit of Ma Qianjun's thunderous momentum. He can reap many benefits, but soon made further arrangements: "Big sister, since Ma Qianjun has caught up, the Tian Nu Temple is probably not safe to stay in, let's set off early!"

  "Yes! Let's go, we don't need you to carry us anymore!" Gu Yinghua said gently: "We'll go to Yuanzhou together, as long as we find my brother, we'll each go our separate ways..."

  "Miss Gu..." Liu Suoyun's heart began to panic and her feet felt weak: "I..."

  There was a voice in his heart that gently told him he wanted to continue on with Gu Yinghua, no matter if it meant going through those sharp peaks of swords and flames or tranquil days like water.

  "I have always respected other people's choices!" Gu Yinghua said sweetly: "Let's just say we'll walk this last stretch of road together, hand in hand."

  Liu Suiyun didn't know what to say and just as he was about to speak, his whole body suddenly went limp and fell forward with a thud.

  After the big fight with Ma Qianjun, Liu Suizhen's current appearance is not to be admired, covered in blood and wounds everywhere. Gu Yinghua directly pulled up Liu Suizhen: "Servant, servant, what happened to you?"

  "What's wrong with you? We still have to go to Yuzhou together, and then..."

  Liu's face was as pale as gold paper, his whole body weak. He smiled wryly: "Miss Gu, I'm a bit out of strength..."

  Just now, he had a fierce battle with Ma Qianjun, and he exhausted all his potential to make great progress. However, at this moment, he can't even move a finger. Liu Suoyun leaned against Gu Yinghua's knee and whispered: "The pursuers from the Pang family will arrive soon, Miss Gu, you should leave quickly, there is still a chance now!"

  It seems to prove everything that Liu Suizhuan said. A pack of hunting dogs' barking sounds have already come from the top of Kill Tiger Ridge.
