Chapter 15: Force and Thought Exchange
The leading Ghost Envoy locked by Meng Su had his head tightly clamped by Meng Su's hands and feet, and his left hand was almost broken by Meng Su. This was not a wrestling ring where someone would shout 'time out', this was a life-and-death struggle. The Ghost Envoy's eyes bulged, and his tongue stuck out. His facial expression was terrifying, and the ghost-head broadsword in his right hand had been kicked away by Meng Su.
Everyone looked at the two people who were loving and killing each other like mud monkeys on the ground, at a loss. A good Demon Planting had turned into a personal grudge between Meng Su and the leader.
The two Vice Envoys watched Meng Su lock their leader and didn't know how to help. If they slashed with their swords, both would be cut in half. The two could only circle around Meng Su and the leader, kicking Meng Su occasionally.
But Meng Su was very cunning. When he saw someone coming to the rescue, he would either spin on the ground or use the leader as a shield.
Ouyang Buxiu and Murong Nanrong saw that Meng Su, an outsider, was being surrounded and beaten by three Ghost Envoys, and it would be unreasonable not to make a move.
The two pulled their swords and fought with the two Vice Envoys.
The Gentleman Sword was indeed like a gentleman. Before making a killing move, there would be a polite pause. This was the drawback of the Gentleman Sword, which could be used for viewing, but definitely not for killing. But the two had been immersed in the Gentleman Sword for decades and were deeply rooted. So, the two were retreating steadily under the attacks of the two Vice Envoys. But fortunately, the two had practiced sword together for many years and mastered a sword array.
With the cooperation of the sword array, the two could barely fight to a draw.
This level of competition was something the servants and the juniors of the family couldn't help with, so they could only watch.
Nangong Xiaoyan took out the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle and looked nervously at the battle between the three in the field.
The leading Ghost Envoy was already dying under Meng Su's lock.
Suddenly, the leading Ghost Envoy's closed eyes opened wide. The leading Ghost Envoy's eyes emitted bursts of black mist, and a powerful mental force rushed into Meng Su's brain. This mental force came very suddenly, and Meng Su was hit in the brain without paying attention.
Meng Su felt a burst of stinging pain in his head and couldn't help but loosen the hands and feet that locked the Ghost Envoy.
The Ghost Envoy freed his right hand and slapped the ground. This slap contained spiritual energy, directly causing the ground to vibrate. This vibration shook the broadsword on the side directly into the air.
The Ghost Envoy locked Meng Su in reverse, and Meng Su couldn't move.
That broadsword flew into the high air and began to fall quickly at the highest point. The two locked each other and began to pull each other desperately, both wanting to drag the other under the falling broadsword.
Meng Su won by strength. But the leading Ghost Envoy had been famous for many years and had rich experience. And his use of spiritual energy was higher than Meng Su's. In the tug-of-war battle, the two fought to a draw.
The broadsword fell from the sky with a 'whoosh', and it didn't deviate at all, pinning the arm of the Ghost Envoy leader, who was locked, to the ground right between Meng Su's sensitive position.
The Ghost Envoy laughed loudly: "Fight me, little rabbit, you are still too young. Your bird was cut off, I only injured my arm. The spiritual energy demonization will heal quickly, you can die."
The Ghost Envoy grabbed the broadsword quickly, pulled it out from his arm, and slashed hard at Meng Su.
Meng Su loosened the hands and feet that locked the Ghost Envoy, and kicked the Ghost Envoy away with the broadsword. Meng Su stood up quickly.
The Ghost Envoy finally stood
The Ghost Envoy still spat out fresh blood, which transformed into Demon Qi to heal his injured arm.
Meng Su watched the Ghost Envoy quietly without stepping forward to stop him. After calming down, Meng Su tried hard to sense the artistic conception of the Intent Finger Flick. Suddenly, Meng Su moved; with a punch, he charged toward the Ghost Envoy before him, his body carried along with the momentum.
Seeing Meng Su charging over, the Ghost Envoy dared not be careless; he had already been terrified by Meng Su's bizarre and unconventional fighting style. The Ghost Envoy raised the broadsword in his hand and slashed down directly at Meng Su's head. Meng Su suddenly seemed to lose the ability to dodge, meeting the blade of the broadsword with his fist of flesh and blood.
Nangong Xiaoyan, standing to the side, saw Meng Su's reckless move and almost pulled the trigger to fire the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle at the Ghost Envoy.
Meng Su condensed all his thought power onto his fist, and a layer of translucent ripples appeared faintly upon it. Just as the fist and the blade were about to meet, Meng Su suddenly opened his fist and extended two fingers to clamp onto the blade. The thought power covering his fist rapidly flowed back to the center of Meng Su's brow, and then the vortex at his brow spun rapidly.
The powerful thought power condensed throughout his body was converted into a strange force, which was imbued into his fingers, and his fingers steadily clamped the blade in place.
The broadsword suddenly lost its speed, and the iron rings jingled, stimulating the spirit power the Ghost Envoy had exerted on the blade through the sound. This sound, amplified by Meng Su's thought power, rushed directly into the Ghost Envoy leader's brain.
The Ghost Envoy was not a cultivator of thought power; he did not possess such powerful thought power and was directly struck by this impact, causing blood to flow from his seven orifices.
Taking advantage of the moment the Ghost Envoy was stunned by the injury, Meng Su kicked him.
The Ghost Envoy, suffering from the mental attack, unleashed all the Demon Qi on his body; this Demon Qi increased the Ghost Envoy's sixth sense, and this sixth sense felt Meng Su's foot kicking toward his abdomen. With no other choice, the Ghost Envoy could only release the broadsword in his hand and retreat, estimating the position of Meng Su's kick, stopping just an inch before Meng Su's toe.
Bizarrely, although Meng Su's strength had been exhausted, his leg suddenly grew three inches longer; it was the three inches of meridians hidden in his body that had played their part. The kick sent the Ghost Envoy flying three or four zhang away.
Meng Su took the Nine-Ring Broadsword into his hand, gripped the hilt, and gave it a shake, imbuing his thought power into the sound as he transmitted it toward the kicked-away Ghost Envoy.
The Ghost Envoy leader had been struck one after another; although these blows were not fatal, the cumulative effect would still delay the Ghost Envoy's judgment.
Suddenly, the sound of the rings on the Nine-Ring Broadsword vanished, and Meng Su, gripping the hilt, slashed at the leading Ghost Envoy.
The Nine-Ring Broadsword discarded all aura, as if it had merged with the air; with a flash of the blade, the Ghost Envoy leader was split into two pieces.
Meng Su's thought power was exhausted, and he slowly fainted on the ground.
That strange force obtained by converting thought power through the brow vortex is called: "Boundary Force." This is the reverse application of the Sunflower Manual, using thought power to imbue spirit power, making it approach the natural force of the Demon Realm. And this force can better merge into space, leaving no trace. Although the old man gave you the Sunflower Manual as a treasure mainly for cultivating divine sense, it can also convert between thought and force, and because of the imbuement of thought, the converted force is even more bizarre, carrying the owner's inclination of thought power.
That is to say, if Meng Su wants to convert thought power into spirit power, it converts into spirit power; if he wants to convert it into the Boundary Force of this world, it will convert into Boundary Force. Of course, there are all kinds of strange forces Meng Su does not know about that can also be converted. This is the heaven-defying aspect of the manual.
Nangong Xiaoyan quickly helped Meng Su up.
Suddenly, a powerful demonic power enveloped the Ouyang Family. This demonic power produced thick fog, sealing off the entire battlefield. A demonic thought locked everyone onto the battlefield. It seemed as if time had stopped flowing at this moment. Even the four people, including Ouyang Bushu, who were fighting, were fixed on the spot in bizarre, dynamic postures.
