The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 237 The Great Wilderness Web
With a single sword strike, fine cracks appeared on Wang Xingde's qi shield!
The second sword!
The cracks continued to widen. Wang Xingde gritted his teeth, his face contorted.
The third sword!
The fourth sword!
Until the fifth sword!
The qi shield exploded with a bang, completely shattered.
Wang Xingde was disheveled, resembling an old dog.
"With the next sword, I will take your dog's life!"
Chen Xiao stood proudly, his eyes disdainful, like a celestial being descending to earth.
Wang Xingde trembled, the fear of death enveloping the old man.
On the shore, Gu Zhendong said calmly, "It seems the dust has settled."
Li Qin bit her lip, a hint of uncertainty in her eyes. "I have a feeling that this old dog still has a trick up his sleeve!"
"Oh?"
Gu Zhendong's eyes narrowed, suddenly noticing something.
Just then, Wang Xingde suddenly shot away, retreating madly.
"Hahahaha, kid, you think you've already won? I'm telling you, you're far from it!"
"Great Wasteland Qi Net, arise!"
Wang Xingde slammed his palms onto the sea surface. The sea trembled, then began to bubble as if boiling.
Countless dead fish and shrimp floated to the surface, their bellies up, covered in frost, having been frozen to death.
"Sizzle!"
The seawater churned, and a crystal-clear giant net appeared on the surface.
The giant net was composed of countless ice crystal threads, dense and meticulous. Each thread was condensed with tangible ice, appearing harder than steel yet more flexible than silk!
Even more terrifying was that this giant net covered an area of thousands of meters around, enveloping the entire sea.
At this moment, Chen Xiao was like a seabird caught in a giant net.
"You brat, I've been weaving this Great Wasteland Qi Net for thirty years. Every thread in it is an ice thread condensed from the qi in my body!"
Wang Xingde was suddenly triumphant, then sighed. "This Great Wasteland Net is my trump card. I never thought I'd have the chance to use it, but today, it's being used on a greenhorn like you!"
"Chen Xiao, taste the power of my Great Wasteland Qi Net!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the giant net rose into the air, emerging from the sea, centering on Chen Xiao, and leaping upward from all directions.
Like a fishing net catching a shark, with Chen Xiao as the shark.
Seeing this scene, Li Qin's heart clenched again.
She silently prayed in her heart, "Chen Xiao, you must be okay..."
Gu Zhendong was also nervous, sighing, "Wang Xingde put thirty years of qi into this giant net. Even Chen Xiao might not be able to handle it..."
However, Chen Xiao, standing on the sea, showed no change in expression when facing the overwhelming giant net.
He smiled playfully and said casually, "Wang Xingde, you think you're the only one who can use flying swords?"
As he spoke, Chen Xiao threw out his hand, and the Heaven Piercing Sword flew out!
The Heaven Piercing Sword howled out, striking the giant net.
Gu Zhendong and Li Qin both thought this would be an earth-shattering blow. Wang Xingde also squinted, wondering what would happen next.
However, what happened next was beyond their expectations. The Heaven Piercing Sword shattered upon touching the Great Wasteland Qi Net, turning into a surging wave!
Since the Great Wasteland Qi Net was a net, it naturally had countless holes. The huge wave naturally passed through the holes and rolled out.
Only after completely escaping the range of the Great Wasteland Qi Net did it condense back into a sword and slash towards Wang Xingde!
"You brat, are you crazy! What grudge do you have against me that you're willing to fight me to the death?"
Wang Xingde was shocked. Chen Xiao's move was completely unexpected.
In his original plan, Chen Xiao would be trapped in the Great Wasteland Qi Net. Knowing he couldn't resist, he would beg for mercy.
Wang Xingde had heard that Chen Xiao was a very skilled divine doctor, even able to revive the dead. He thought Chen Xiao might have a way to save him from the backlash of the Dragon Tiger Blood Burst Pill and prevent him from exploding and dying.
In short, he only wanted Chen Xiao to surrender, not to fight him to the death.
However, he never expected that Chen Xiao would disregard his own life and be willing to be strangled to death by the Great Wasteland Qi Net in order to kill him!
At this moment, the Heaven Piercing Sword was already close at hand. Wang Xingde didn't have time to think and quickly defended with all his strength.
Sizzle!
The qi shield that Wang Xingde had struggled to gather was easily pierced.
The sword struck, and Wang Xingde sprang back like a shooting star.
In this way, Wang Xingde avoided being beheaded by the Heaven Piercing Sword. Although he barely dodged the blow, the pouring qi still left him in a sorry state. His qi was exhausted, and he fell onto the beach.
Wang Xingde fell on the beach, disheveled and battered, but he still laughed.
"Hahahaha, you brat, so what if you've pushed me into a desperate situation? I still survived. And you, in the next moment, you will be minced into meat!"
Not far away, Gu Zhendong and Li Qin were shocked by these words.
They quickly looked towards the sea and saw that the thousand-meter-long ice crystal giant net had completed its closure and was constantly shrinking, strangling towards Chen Xiao.
"Great Wasteland Qi Net, converge for me!"
Wang Xingde used the last bit of qi in his body and let out a low roar.
The Great Wasteland Net made cracking sounds, and the speed of contraction continued to increase. The steel-like ice crystal net threads became thicker at this moment.
Gu Zhendong and Li Qin could imagine that when the Great Wasteland Net contracted to the end and became a ball, it would be like a meat grinder, mincing Chen Xiao's body.
This was Wang Xingde's last trump card and the last foundation of the entire Hidden Sword Pavilion!
Although this Great Wasteland Net, woven for more than thirty years, could only be used once, Wang Xingde felt it was worth it, as it was used at the most critical moment.
Anyway, death was inevitable. If he could see the murderer of his son being minced into meat before he died, then he could die with a smile on his face.
"Sigh..."
Chen Xiao sighed, facing the gradually compressing Great Wasteland Qi Net. He seemed helpless and had given up resisting. He lowered his hands and stood on the sea, indifferent to the giant net.
"Hehe, Chen Xiao, it seems you've given up resisting. If you still want to live, I can give you a chance. You're so young, you must not want to die, right?"
Wang Xingde tempted him.
"I really don't want to die."
Chen Xiao nodded.
"Haha, as long as you do what I say, I can guarantee you won't die!"
Wang Xingde laughed wildly, extremely proud.
Chen Xiao smiled slightly, "But, even if I don't do what you say, I won't die..."
As he spoke, Chen Xiao's hand reached out towards the Great Wasteland Net...
