Chapter 502: Breathing Technique

~4 min read 740 words

The crowd first gathered like a vortex.

And then, retreated like a tide.

Lu Guhong used an "Iron Bridge" move to dodge the giant *naginata* sweeping over, but before he could catch his breath, the *naginata* that was about to disappear from the edge of his vision suddenly stopped, as if there was no process from extreme movement to extreme stillness.

If it weren't for the wind that followed and the minced meat and blood stuck to the *naginata* shaft that was thrown away by inertia, Lu Guhong almost felt that what he saw was an illusion.

That huge *naginata* must have weighed hundreds of catties.

It was one thing for the giant to swing it as freely as an ordinary weapon, but to be able to forcibly stop the inertia of the *naginata* swing with brute force in an instant—those two arms of his were probably capable of squeezing juice out of bluestone.

Even if it were a Heaven-Man expert, in front of such inhuman brute force, there was no difference from an ant.

And the terror of the opponent didn't stop there.

The *naginata* changed direction and fell suddenly.

Lu Guhong slapped the ground with one palm, borrowed the force to turn around, barely avoided the *naginata* sweeping toward his chest, and then had to turn around and flee again, using the bodies of his own disciples as a barrier to see if he could escape the giant's pursuit.

But before he could dodge, a huge fist brought a shrill wind and smashed into his chest!

*Bang! *

With a muffled sound, Lu Guhong bled from his mouth and nose.

Yet he showed joy on his face!

Although the giant's strength was great, his speed was not very fast, just relying on his body size, the length of the *naginata*, and quick reaction to make him have nowhere to retreat and nowhere to block, but with his martial arts attainments, he could actually predict every move of the giant.

In other words, he was doing it on purpose!

"This is exactly the punch I wanted!"

"This is my escape route!"

Lu Guhong laughed wildly, the True Qi in his body and the Gu-insects working together to heal the injuries caused by this punch.

At the same time, he was also smashed away by this incomparably fierce punch, plus he leaped up slightly at that instant in advance, and his whole person was like a ball, smashed away violently!

Thanks to the giant's huge power, Lu Guhong's speed was even faster than when he used his own light-body technique!

A trace of fluctuation finally appeared in the giant's eyes.

" *Chūgen no hito desu* (People of the Central Plains)..."

Compared to the martial arts of the Central Plains, although Japanese martial arts were another path, they were far less broad. Plus, the giant was not "professionally trained," and his martial arts relied entirely on natural brute force and self-realization on the battlefield, so he really didn't expect Lu Guhong's calculation.

Without the slightest hesitation, he leaped up violently and chased after the flying Lu Guhong.

At the same time, Lu Guhong finally got his wish and pulled away from the giant; although it might only be for an instant, it was enough for him to do a lot.

His gaze swept across the ground below, and when he passed a group of fleeing Great Goose Hall disciples, he suddenly used a "Thousand-Catty Drop" method and landed in the crowd.

Then, borrowing the cover of the crowd, in the astonished eyes of the disciples, he raised his hand and wiped his face. By the time he took his hand away, he was unrecognizable.

And as he ran, his figure was also changing.

Becoming shorter, becoming fatter.

Bones shifted, muscles twisted, skin shrank suddenly.

It only took a few breaths for him to completely become another person.

Ming Sect direct transmission, Disguise Technique.

A profound method that even Li Miao found hard to see clues in, appeared again in the second year after the end of the Battle of the Imperial Mausoleum.

Then, Lu Guhong shook his shoulders violently.

True Qi erupted, shattering his damaged outer garment, revealing an inner garment of a completely different style. And the True Qi didn't dissipate there, but continued to spread to the surroundings, shattering the outer garments of the dozens of people fleeing with him together.

The rags flew like butterflies. ===== CHAPTER 503 =====
