Shrinking the Ground to an Inch Shocks Everyone
The man did not fight the man in black; instead, he retreated while running away into the distance.
Seeing them escape, the man in black didn't pursue them any further, but instead chased after them down the mountain.
After seeing the man chase after the person down the mountain, the crowd gradually dispersed and went home to sleep.
The next morning, just as the sun rose, a light drizzle began to fall, carrying a faint salty, fishy smell.
Lü Dongbin opened his eyes and found that the man in black did not cause him any more trouble.
He breathed a sigh of relief, then sat up in bed and began to survey his surroundings. All he could see was a desolate landscape; apart from trees and weeds, there was nothing else.
He got out of bed, stretched, and moved his body before leaving the room to gather information from the nearby villages.
Just as Lü Dongbin opened the door and walked out, he suddenly heard a commotion outside.
Lü Dongbin was secretly delighted. He knew that there must be many villagers outside this place, and if he wanted to find out any information, he would definitely have a way to find them and ask them questions.
Thinking this, Lü Dongbin quickened his pace and rushed outside, thinking to himself, "Since the man in black wants to kill me, he certainly wouldn't dare to openly kill people outside. If I go out, I should be fine."
Thinking about this, Lü Dongbin quickened his pace, and soon Lü Dongbin arrived outside the village.
As soon as Lü Dongbin arrived outside the village, he was immediately stunned by the scene before him.
At that moment, he discovered that the village was blocked by a dense crowd of people in black on all sides, and many of them were wielding spears and scimitars, attacking the men in black.
Although the men in black were highly skilled in martial arts and possessed extraordinary strength, they were unable to withstand the attacks of so many men in black. For a time, they were suppressed and had no power to fight back.
Seeing that the men in black were unable to retaliate, Lü Dongbin was overjoyed, thinking to himself, "Finally, I don't have to worry about being killed by them anymore; I can leave this place!"
Just as Lü Dongbin was about to turn and leave, a curved blade suddenly slashed towards his shoulder.
With a soft shout, Lü Dongbin flicked his Azure Cloud Sword, deflecting the weapon of an attacker, and then charged at another person.
After being swept away by Lü Dongbin's sword, the man in black was terrified. He never expected that this person would be so powerful. Even with so many of them fighting against him, they still couldn't kill him!
The man in black looked at Lü Dongbin, his face turning extremely grim. He coldly said, "Boy, I didn't expect you to be so powerful. I'll personally send you to your death!"
After saying this, the man charged directly at Lü Dongbin.
The man was incredibly fast, arriving in front of Lü Dongbin in the blink of an eye, and raised his knife to chop at Lü Dongbin's head.
Seeing the person rushing towards him, Lü Dongbin quickly dodged.
At this moment, the man attacked Lü Dongbin again.
Lü Dongbin dodged the attack and then charged at the man in black again.
This time, he already knew the man's identity, so Lü Dongbin's attack became somewhat cautious, no longer as fierce and sharp as it had been the night before.
Seeing this, the man in black smirked, thinking to himself, "Boy, you're quite fast, but even if you are, how could you possibly be a match for me?!"
Just then, the man in black noticed that the young man's speed had suddenly increased to more than twice as fast as last night!
The man in black was terrified. At that moment, a possibility occurred to him!
"Could this guy have mastered the art of Shrinking the Ground to an Inch?"
The thought of this possibility deepened the man's apprehension.
At that moment, the man in black had a very bad feeling.
After Lü Dongbin severed the black-clad man's knife with a single sword strike, he attacked again.
Lü Dongbin's Movement Method were extremely fast. For a time, the man in black had no way to contend with Lü Dongbin was quickly defeated.
"Pfft!"
The man in black had his head smashed by Lü Dongbin's palm strike, and then his entire body fell to the ground.
When the corpse hit the ground, it immediately exploded, turning into a pile of minced meat that splattered everywhere.
"Ah!"
At that moment, a scream came from afar, followed by a dark shadow flying swiftly towards them.
Upon seeing the man in black, Lü Dongbin frowned. He scanned the man's cultivation level with his Divine Sense and found that he was at the Nascent Soul Realm.
The man in black flew to Lü Dongbin's side, his face pale and filled with fear and terror. He knelt on the ground and cried out, "Your Excellency, spare our lives! Your Excellency, spare our lives! We were blind and Mount Tai, and offended you. Please forgive us!"
Lü Dongbin looked at him kneeling on the ground and said coldly, "Forgive you? Impossible! Since you wanted to kill me, how could I let you off so easily!"
"Your Excellency, I beg you, spare my life!"
Upon hearing Lü Dongbin's words, he turned ashen-faced with fear, trembling all over. He scrambled to Lü Dongbin 'Lü Dongbin feet, kowtowing and begging for mercy.
Looking at the man in black, Lü Dongbin couldn't help but feel pity.
He thought to himself, "This person is quite skilled; he could be considered a master. If I could recruit him into my sect, it would be a great help to me."
With this in mind, Lü Dongbin made his decision.
At this moment, the man in black was overjoyed to see that Lü Dongbin had spared his life. He immediately kowtowed to Lü Dongbin and cried out loudly, "Thank you for your forgiveness! Thank you for your forgiveness! Your great kindness will be forever remembered!"
Upon hearing this, Lü Dongbin shook his head and said, "No need. I just don't want to be killed by you for no reason!"
"Yes, yes, yes, I know I was wrong, and I will never make the same mistake again!" The man nodded repeatedly, indicating that he would never make a similar mistake again.
"Um."
Lü Dongbin gave a soft snort, then looked at the man in black and said coldly, "I know your target is the treasures and money on me. No matter what, you won't succeed today!"
"Sir, we were just following orders. Please forgive us this once. We promise we won't make the same mistake again," the man in black said again.
"I advise you to surrender obediently, otherwise you will suffer torture later!" the man in black said arrogantly.
