"Depend on!!"

Chu Tianshu has loved martial arts since childhood and has a great appreciation for unique techniques.

Sometimes, when I see someone pull off a brilliant move, I can't help but exclaim in praise.

At this moment, the word "good" should have flashed through his mind.

Because this is indeed a good idea, a brilliant idea.

When Chu Tianshu's feet touched the ground, the soil around them was permeated by his internal energy, making it difficult for supernatural powers to interfere.

The timing of Ma Lingbai's grab was precisely when Chu Tianshu's feet were slightly off the ground.

Supernatural power was transmitted from ten meters away.

It was another method of gathering soil into a stick, which allowed the stick to transmit Ma Lingbai's strength.

The combination of supernatural power and physical strength was perfectly timed.

If this move were explained to Chu Tianshu beforehand and he were asked to comment on it, he would definitely praise it.

But in reality, he cursed under his breath.

When faced with a sudden threat to their groin, it's difficult for any living person to calmly and objectively say "good."

Chu Tianshu raised his eyebrows like knives, pulled in his abdomen and lifted his hips, pressing down the black earth and stone in his hand at top speed to meet the blow.

When!!

With a flick of the gray-white stick, the black earth and rocks were instantly shattered.

But inside the black soil and rocks, there was also an iron rod.

Chu Tianshu placed his palm on top of the iron rod, narrowly blocking the grayish-white tip.

At that moment, Ma Lingbai reached out with his long arm and grabbed the end of the long stick.

When he grabbed the long stick with both hands, two loud cracking sounds rang out as two clumps of blood burst from his palms.

The blood spread across the stone and was immediately absorbed.

He deliberately cracked the skin on his palm.

He used his own blood to enhance the power of his supernatural abilities.

The stick, over ten meters long, suddenly trembled.

Chu Tianshu's heart tightened, and he suddenly unleashed seven palm strikes in quick succession.

All seven of his palm strikes landed on the iron rod beneath him.

Because the grayish-white stick tip also trembled wildly with a shake, striking the iron bar seven times in succession.

They were all attacks from the bottom up.

It happened in different locations all seven times.

Ta-da!!

It was also Chu Tianshu's keen insight that allowed him to sense the movement of the long staff.

It took seven consecutive blows to neutralize the force on the staff.

However, the clash of seven palms and seven sticks still prevented him from finding a chance to land.

Chu Tianshu gripped the iron rod with his five fingers, and a suction force lifted it slightly, allowing him to hold it in his hand.

A stick over ten meters long, that's a bit outrageous.

If Chu Tianshu still wanted to use the previous method to neutralize the force of the stick while using his own strength to interfere with such a long stick.

I'm afraid that the interference will dissipate before it even reaches the middle of the stone rod.

Since we don't need that kind of precise operation, there's no need to use our own hands to fight against someone else's weapons.

The moment he gripped the iron bar.

Ten meters away, an extremely intense aura emanated.

Ma Lingbai roared, fully assuming his stance, and brandished the more than ten-meter-long stick.

The gray-white sticks swayed wildly, like dragons nodding their heads.

Even if Ma Lingbai's hand only trembles slightly, it's unknown how many times it will tremble by the time it reaches the tip of the stick.

Chu Tianshu's body was parallel to the ground, spinning rapidly like a drill, with the iron rod moving with him.

The clinking and clattering of the billiard balls created a cacophony of sounds.

Many sounds even collide at the same point.

It's hard to say how many times Chu Tianshu spun around in the air, his iron rod striking and blocking the air countless times.

All I could feel was sparks flying everywhere around me.

Choke!!!

The gray-white stick tip, once again thrusting upwards, was blocked diagonally by the iron rod.

Chu Tianshu turned to the side, letting the stick rub against the iron bar.

A trail of flames shot straight into the sky.

Ma Lingbai had always wanted to elevate Chu Tianshu to a high position.

He had already figured it out.

Of these enemies, only Chu Tianshu possessed a true physical body.

Those ten straw doll sorcerers can work together to achieve the effect of flight.

But Chu Tianshu, who was stronger than them, could not fly.

If we could lift Chu Tianshu into the sky...

With his supernatural staff, which is over ten meters long, Ma Lingbai can gain a significant advantage.

Even if Chu Tianshu can make multiple turns in the air, as long as he cannot actually fly, his disadvantage will become increasingly severe.

However, Chu Tianshu seemed to have seen through this as well.

Having been attacked by a flurry of blows, Chu Tianshu spun in mid-air like a fish flipping belly up, or a snake coiling around a pillar.

But by changing his technique and deflecting the force, he didn't lift himself too far off the ground.

When that string of sparks flew out and rose straight into the sky.

Chu Tianshu seized the opportunity, suddenly stretched out his arms, and as he turned to the side, extended his right arm straight out.

The long iron rod slung diagonally across the ridge of the field.

This thrust unleashed a surge of internal energy, which traveled to the earth.

It's less of a thorn and more of a support.

With a push, Chu Tianshu flew rapidly to the side.

He had already moved out of the range that the long stick could cover when it swayed up and down.

In a moment of panic, Ma Lingbai spread his legs wide and stomped deeply into the ground.

The white ape lifted the long staff to shoulder height, with the right hand holding the end of the staff and the left shoulder supporting the staff, the left arm fully extended forward.

Ugh!!

The long, greyish-white staff resembled the tail of a divine dragon.

The stick exploded through the air, leaving a white trail as it swept across, instantly catching up with Chu Tianshu.

At this moment, Chu Tianshu's feet had already landed on the paddy field, his right hand gripping the iron rod, and his left hand pushing against it, blocking the attack.

A loud, clanging sound rang out.

Chu Tianshu's figure glided rapidly in the paddy field, his feet leaving two trails of white spray.

After he passed by, the mud surged up again from beneath the white waves.

But this sweeping blow ultimately failed to achieve a greater effect.

Chu Tianshu's iron rod, imbued with internal energy, couldn't be broken with a single blow.

"You did a good job!!"

Chu Tianshu let out a long roar, then suddenly stopped in his tracks.

The paddy field, within a radius of three meters, flashed with a bluish light, providing him with support.

"The system is extremely outdated..."

Chu Tianshu moved in an instant, his right hand striking the gray-white long staff with the end of his staff.

The long stick was about to tremble and spread when the tip of the iron rod sprang out, striking precisely at that arc.

The long, gray-white rod-like body swung open, giving Chu Tianshu more space.

Ma Lingbai retreated several steps while continuing to shake the stick.

"Strategic tactics are practically nonexistent..."

Chu Tianshu then uttered six more words.

In those six words, he charged forward fiercely, thrusting, pointing, sweeping, and smashing with his iron rod, unleashing thirty-six strikes.

It uses entirely the power from boxing techniques.

The power of the Sky-Spanning Art is supplied, Vajra Samadhi is used for its application.

Ma Lingbai's stick circle could never be closed up.

Although he retreated quickly, he had no way to directly attack Chu Tianshu with the gray-white tip of the stick.

What enraged the white ape even more was that Chu Tianshu actually continued to speak at this moment.

The system is extremely outdated, and strategic thinking is practically nonexistent...

"However, your combat skills are honed to perfection, so it's still worth a try."

"I will learn from this experience and use it on your masters in the future!"

Chu Tianshu's figure danced wildly, and layers of afterimages drew closer.

He took the opportunity to unleash a burst of pent-up energy as he spoke, and the faster he moved, the more he talked.

Ma Lingbai watched as he approached, his panicked expression suddenly changed, two points of blood-red light appeared deep in his pupils, and his body began to spin.

The long, grayish-white stone rod softened instantly, like a ribbon, which he pulled around his body and made spin around him.

But the outside of the stick was covered with a dense array of sharp spikes.

The spiky white shadow that swirled around him enveloped him from head to toe.

Together with its shadow, it resembled a giant stone bell, its surface covered with sharp spikes, its destructive power ferocious and terrifying.

Boom!!

Ma Lingbai suddenly crashed into Chu Tianshu.

"Fool, you still don't understand the true wisdom of our people in battle!"

This sentence was what Ma Lingbai thought to himself with a wild laugh.

But he didn't say it.

It was Chu Tianshu who actually said those words.

In the brief moment of spinning, Ma Lingbai looked up in astonishment.

"That's what you were going to say, wasn't it?"

Chu Tianshu's voice rang out again.

No, Chu Tianshu's eyes, though they seemed to be speaking...

But his mouth didn't move; it wasn't his voice, but his thoughts.

The spirits attract each other; the vertical and Vertical and Horizontal Seal capture certain strong thoughts of the opponent, counteract them, and disturb the senses.

In that tiny, rapidly spinning moment, Ma Lingbai had a chance to perceive these two sentences.

Chu Tianshu's left hand was in front, with Four-Leaf Seal shining in his palm, while his right hand held a staff, hanging down behind him.

Ma Lingbai's spinning charge was indeed very fast.

The green leaf, which was almost in Chu Tianshu's hand, didn't even have time to complete a full rotation.

They were almost there. Even though they had exchanged thoughts earlier, neither of them could stop their planned actions.

boom--

Ma Lingbai still crashed into it.

Chu Tianshu narrowly withdrew his left hand, his pupils shrinking so small they seemed to disappear from his eyes.

In that split second of uncertainty, the iron rod cleaved out.

The white shadow, resembling a sharp, bell-shaped stone, seemed to have been struck by a tremendous force, suddenly retreating and spinning more than a dozen times before coming to a stop.

The curved, spiked stone stick fell to the ground with a clattering sound.

A blue line appeared on Ma Lingbai's body, splitting from his forehead to his groin. His lips moved, and his body suddenly separated.

BOOM!!

The body flew to both sides, landing in two even, neat pieces in the water.
