Chapter 8: Fighting Wisdom, Not Strength
One strike to kill!
Lin Xuan's expression sank, the other party's strikes were more vicious than expected...
He gritted his teeth, and instead of hiding, he took a step backward.
Whoosh, the flying sword fell into the air, hit the mountain wall behind, rumbling sound, countless debris down, Zhou Yan face full of consternation, she never dreamed that a pre-spirit dynamic rookie can avoid their own attacks, and the strange thing is, Lin Xuan is not to hide, but in the flying sword is going to hit him suddenly sank into the ground in the moment, what is going on?
Zhou Yan was both angry and surprised, she couldn't help but walk forward, wanting to find out what was going on, when she took the third step, snap, as if she had touched some organ, a large net fell from the top of her head, enveloping her in it.
It happened suddenly, Zhou Yan couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly pinched her hand, wanting to break free from the fishing net, however, just at this moment, an ice bullet popped out from the ground where Lin Xuan had just sunk, accurately hitting a rope bolted to a large tree.
The rope snapped, and with the force of the bullet, a bowl-thick bamboo with both ends sharpened to a point flew towards Zhou Yan.
"No..."
Zhou Yan was shocked, vicious voice became horrified, the next is a scream, was covered by the fishing net, there is nowhere to hide, the bamboo pierced her chest, to the death of Zhou Yan also do not understand, how they will somehow hang here.
With unwilling eyes, hand still tightly tugging that regicide to seize the treasure, Zhou Yan soul to hell, two minutes later, Lin Xuan from the ground pit climbed out, looking at Zhou Yan's body, he breathed a sigh of relief, risk is a word.
If it wasn't for the careful calculation, the one lying on the ground right now should be himself.
Lin Xuan, from the moment he was discovered, he thought about how to resolve the crisis, fleeing will definitely not work, this canyon is miles away from the sect, before he escapes back, he will be caught up and killed by Zhou Yan, he only knows the light body technique, but as a Spiritual Dynamic Stage Great Circle expert, she knows the more advanced Wind Skill, the two of them can not be compared to the speed of the wind.
Can not escape from the other hand, beg for mercy and certainly useless, their only way out is to fight, kill each other to live, at first glance, this seems to be an impossible task, the two sides of the power difference is huge, to be honest, even if it is a hundred Lin Xuan is not Zhou Yan's opponent.
But now he has no other choice, not to mention not capable of enemy, always can still be taken by surprise!
Of course, the wisdom to take easy to say, if not Lin Xuan such a cool-headed, meticulous people, met this situation, has long been six gods, which still want to think of a way of the heart?
To outsmart, the first thing to do is to analyze the situation in their favor, the power is far less than the other side, Lin Xuan only advantage is the familiarity of the terrain, this canyon he has found two years, although can not be said to be clear about a piece of grass, but it is indeed similar to the backyard of their own home.
And from analyzing what he had just seen, Zhou Yan had obviously landed in this place by chance, the terrain of the canyon, was unfamiliar to her.
So from the very beginning, Lin Xuan utilized this, making seven turns and not going in a straight line, trying to buy as much time as possible.
The next step was the crucial second step, in the canyon, apart from the occasional exotic flowers and herbs, there were also quite a few animals, from wild rabbits to dogs and bears and tigers, Lin Xuan had made this place his own private territory, and occasionally hunted for game meat.
For the sake of hunting convenience, he had once set some traps in the canyon, just now groping on the ground was to check if the traps had been destroyed, this time luck was on his side, both traps had not been touched and were intact.
And there were two traps in total, one was for Lin Xuan himself, it was an ordinary trap pit, used to catch some animals that weren't too big in size, the ground was covered with weeds, stepping on it was just enough for Lin Xuan to fall into the dirt pit.
Lin Xuan had already calculated, with Zhou Yan's vicious character, surely the moment they meet, they will attack like themselves, she strikes fast, they can't avoid, but if they stand in front of the trap, they only need to take a step back, they can fall into it, thus dodging the attack.
And meet this situation, Zhou Yan will certainly be surprised, up to check, and at this time, another trap can play a role, with their own fall down the midden is different, this one is used to capture large animals, such as lions and tigers, not only has a fishing net, but also be sharpened bamboo....
In other words, this trap is deadly!
As long as Zhou Yan is induced to step on it, the trap will be activated, if there is a defense, such a trap to capture beasts certainly can not deal with cultivators, but in a completely unexpected situation, but can receive the effect of surprise.
Every step, Lin Xuan had calculated and interlocked, how should he bait the enemy, and what would Zhou Yan's reaction be, although the situation was incredibly dangerous, Lin Xuan calmly thought about the countermeasures.
In the end, his plan succeeded, not by strength, but by relying on his mind and calmness to defeat his opponent.
This battle, although it didn't consume much mana and didn't take long, but exhausting his mind and playing with empty thoughts, Lin Xuan also felt a little tired and sat down on the ground to rest.
Cold eyes looked at Zhou Yan's corpse, Lin Xuan walked over and took off a crystal turquoise bracelet from her hand, this is not a decoration, but is used by cultivators to store items, there is a separate space inside, Lin Xuan probed his divine sense into it, and took out the things inside one by one.
Clothes, food, women's cosmetics, these Lin Xuan didn't even look at them and threw them aside.
"There." Lin Xuan let out a low cry, his face filled with joy, and in his hands, he held two crystal stones.
Crystallized stones, in the three years in the Drifting Cloud Valley, Lin Xuan had heard his elders mention countless times that they were something as precious as pills and magic treasures, but it was the first time that he had come into contact with them so closely.
The so-called crystals, refers to the inside contains rich heaven and earth spiritual qi stone, cultivators can run directly from the inside absorption, according to the amount of spiritual qi and the purity of the different, divided into four grades of the lower grade, middle grade, the upper grade, the extreme grade.
Whether it is practicing, making artifacts, or fighting, the role of crystals is irreplaceable, and it is used by cultivators as a currency for trading.
