Chapter 797

~6 min read 1,151 words

100% critical hit!?

"Too terrifying." Su Ming couldn't help but mutter.

"The activation condition is also very simple: only use one move at a time."

"That is to say, I can't obtain this critical hit effect while flying swords and activating Seven Shadow Swords at the same time, which can be considered the only shortcoming."

This Sin Sword Idiot sub-class really gave Su Ming a huge surprise.

Subsequently, Su Ming took out the sealed skill secret manual.

【Dugu Nine Swords · Skill Book (Top-tier Ancient)】

The seal of this skill scroll requires an extremely high level of sword intent to be lifted.

Su Ming had tried it when he was fourth-turn and could only support it for about 30 seconds at most.

But now his strength has greatly improved.

"Try it!" he said solemnly.

The next instant, his consciousness entered the seal of the secret manual.

Suddenly, clear springs flowed, and high mountains and flowing water appeared.

A mountain peak with green water and green mountains appeared before Su Ming's eyes.

In front of him was a blurred residual shadow of an old man, holding a blurred weapon.

"You... are here again..."

"But it's still not enough." The residual shadow shook his head; there seemed to be some expectation in his eyes, but it quickly dimmed.

"If I don't try, how do I know if it's enough?" Su Ming's face was calm, and he drew his sword directly.

That figure also waved the sword blade in his hand and attacked Su Ming.

The terrifying sword intent made Su Ming's consciousness tremble all over.

He knew this was just an illusion and he wouldn't really die, but that absolutely pure sword intent still made him break into a cold sweat.

"Just a residual shadow is so terrifying; if it were during his lifetime, he would be at least a seventh-turn peak... no, an eighth-turn powerhouse!"

Su Ming thought to himself.

The gap was huge, but he was not panicked at all, activating all his power to meet the battle, using all his sword moves.

This time, Su Ming supported for more than 70 seconds!

Several more seals were lifted.

After returning to reality, he was also drenched in sweat.

The further he went, the more powerful, sharp, and swift the old man's sword techniques became.

Every second he supported longer was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

From supporting 30 seconds to 70 seconds, the difficulty didn't increase by dozens of times, but by hundreds of times.

Su Ming was not discouraged and actually plunged into the illusion space again.

This time, he supported for a full 72 seconds!

"Again!" he gritted his teeth and said.

Su Ming ignored the fatigue of his consciousness and fought with all his might.

After several days and nights, he was actually able to support for 89 seconds!

The old man's sword technique in the residual shadow is definitely the complete version of Dugu Nine Swords.

But it was just pure sword moves, with no other effects, so Su Ming could support it.

Every second of the duel, seeing moves and dismantling moves, was extremely difficult.

Su Ming kept learning and summarizing, constantly improving.

He forced himself to increase the time he persisted from 70 seconds to 89 seconds!

It can be seen how powerful his comprehension is.

Only one last second away, he could break through all the seals and learn this invincible unique skill!

But every time at the last moment, the old man would use an extremely sharp and tricky sword move, ending all his defenses and defeating him.

Su Ming tried 17 times and couldn't break that last move!

"What exactly is that last sword move?" His gaze was shocked, and he found it incredible in his heart.

"Every move is different, with no similarities at all, so it's impossible to defend by memorizing the patterns."

"Although the actions are different, they all possess invincible destructive power and penetrating power."

Su Ming tried again and found that he still couldn't break it.

The residual shadow's sword technique was too extraordinary; even Su Ming, who was well-informed in his previous life, basically couldn't name a swordsman who could compete with it in pure sword moves.

Looking at the last seal on the secret manual, Su Ming sighed and put it away.

"No matter, it's just the last second; it's coming soon."

"Perhaps the Shushan dungeon trip can help me lift this seal."

He muttered.

Subsequently, he took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and prepared to notify Ni Shuang and the others to go to Shushan for training with him.

But suddenly, a blood-red long needle shot out from the dark, attacking Su Ming's neck!

This move was too sinister, too fast!

At the same time, from another direction, a cloud of poisonous mist followed, wanting to poison Su Ming to death!

Su Ming's eyes were cold to the extreme.

Why is it an ambush again!?

He has been low-key enough since his rebirth, yet there are always people trying to kill him.

His movements were extremely fast, instantly condensing three blades of battle intent, burning with pitch-black flames, the blades flowing.

In just an instant, it cut through the air, cutting the poisonous mist to pieces and blowing it away.

That blood-colored long needle was even harder to deal with.

The moment Su Ming's two blades of killing intent shattered the blood needle, it didn't dissipate.

Instead, in an instant, it shattered and split apart!

It turned into countless blood needles and continued to shoot!

One needle turned into a hundred, dense, fine, and sharp, as if made of blood!

Su Ming's gaze flashed sharply; he felt this move was too familiar.

But at this moment, he didn't have time to think carefully about who was performing it; he had to avoid it as soon as possible.

Su Ming retracted his steps, and from the sword box behind him, the Extreme Yang Death Scar Broken Sword flew out!

The split blades separated, turned into streamers, and cut the blood needles to pieces.

At the same time, Su Ming held the Blood Fall Sword and flicked it lightly.

The 【Flicking Sword Startling Bird】 skill was activated!

A crisp sword sound rang out, and all the blood needles around scattered in an instant, were shaken away, and inserted into the purple trees around.

He... was unscathed!

"What a fast sword move, truly sharp."

From the surrounding swamp, a faint laugh came.

He saw a person clapping and appearing with light steps.

Su Ming looked closely and his eyes trembled instantly.

He saw him wearing a blood-colored tight suit, his figure was thin, and he was playing with a strange dagger in his hand.

Most notably, he was the same height as Su Ming, but had a boyish face; this is his iconic feature!

This person... is exactly one of the Heisha elders, Zai Da!
