Chapter 83 Battle Rank 5
Lu Hao, on the other side, was unaware of what was happening at the edge of the meat grinder. Even if he did know, he would pretend it never happened.
After all, Lu Hao had killed the son of a commander, and he didn't want the commander to hold a grudge against him forever. Otherwise, he would have to be careful and afraid of the commander's surprise attack when he went down into the underground cave.
Lu Hao had been crawling in the hole he dug for nearly five days, but he hadn't seen a single fifth-grade underground martial artist. He only saw a small third-grade team on the third day.
After killing them, Lu Hao never saw the underground warriors again, and he even began to wonder if the feng shui of the place had gone bad.
As a meat grinder, battles should occur every moment. Rank 6 martial artists are rare here, but Rank 5 martial artists should be quite common. At least we shouldn't have gone five days without seeing one.
Lu Hao planned to wait two more days. If there was still no movement after two days, Lu Hao would take the initiative to strike. Otherwise, he couldn't just keep waiting here.
In the afternoon, just when Lu Hao thought he wouldn't find a suitable opponent for the day, he saw a cave warrior walking towards him.
Judging from the aura emanating from this powerful being in the underground cave, he should be at the fifth rank. His qi and blood are relatively weak, so he probably hasn't reached the high rank yet. As for whether he is at the low or mid rank, we'll have to fight him to find out.
Well, this range is still within Lu Hao's expectations.
Lu Hao immediately made a decision, adjusted his state, and prepared to launch a surprise attack. After all, this was the first martial artist in five days who was most suitable to hone his skills. He wanted to seize the initiative and see how well the opponent controlled his health.
If Lu Hao's control over Qi and blood is high, he's prepared to retreat. After all, he came here to hone his skills, not to die.
100 meters, 50 meters, 20 meters...
Just as Lu Hao and the other thin-faced martial artists continued to walk forward, he suddenly stopped and stood still 20 meters away.
Could they have discovered him? But that shouldn't be the case; he's hiding his presence very well.
But seeing the thin-faced martial artist standing still, there was no other way; the arrow was already on the bowstring, and he had to be released.
Taking advantage of the thin-faced martial artist's hesitation, Lu Hao rushed out of the hole with his sword, stood in mid-air, and slashed at the thin-faced man.
He used his trump card from the start, without testing his opponent, since the opponent was only a fifth-rank, and if he tested him again, the opponent might seize the opportunity to exploit his weakness.
A ten-meter-long crimson blade of light appeared directly on Lu Hao's large ring-shaped blade.
When the thin-faced man saw Lu Hao rush out and attack him, he shouted and also attacked Lu Hao, after all, in his eyes Lu Hao was just a third-grade insect.
Their weapons collided in mid-air instantly.
bang,
Lu Hao was knocked back several meters. Seeing that the thin-faced martial artist had only retreated one meter, he instantly realized the thin-faced martial artist's strength.
He's at the mid-stage of the fifth rank, almost at the level of mastering Qi and blood. I'm currently a bit behind him, but that's for the best. It puts pressure on me and is the best whetstone for me.
"Kaguya Kagura"
"The thin-faced man across from me shouted. Then he rushed forward excitedly."
At the same time, a surge of spiritual energy spread over.
"It was you, you resurrected little thief, who killed Young Master Mu, wasn't it?"
Although Lu Hao couldn't understand the underground language spoken by the other side, he instantly understood what they meant thanks to his mental power.
Young Master Mu?
Could this be the fourth-rank martial artist with life essence that I killed a few days ago?
possible!
Seeing the thin-faced man rushing over, Lu Hao didn't have time to think much. He could only concentrate his energy to resist, since his burst of power was not as strong as the man's. Now he could only resist first and then look for an opportunity to counterattack.
As the thin-faced man slashed down with his sword, Lu Hao defended with his own sword. Instantly, blood flowed from Lu Hao's tiger's mouth, and he was naturally knocked back several meters.
Seeing that the thin-faced man was about to press his advantage, Lu Hao didn't have time to pay attention to the injury on his hand. Instead, he gathered his energy and slashed at his opponent.
Otherwise, if they remain in a passive position, they will eventually be eliminated.
The two blades collided, and Lu Hao was knocked away again. He could feel that his arm was already torn by the force of the counterattack.
However, Lu Hao cannot afford to stop taking pills now, as the enemy would force him to take pills in a real battle.
Lu Hao used his kill points to restore his health while continuing to slash at the thin-faced man. After all, he could use kill points to restore his health at any time.
Even though the thin-faced man was already a fifth-rank cultivator, his speed of recovering qi and blood was still not as fast as Lu Hao's, so now it was time to fight a war of attrition.
Once Lu Hao depletes the opponent's health, he can secure the kill.
With this in mind, Lu Hao almost always traded injuries for injuries, but Lu Hao was the one who got hurt the most, while the thin-faced man lost his vital energy.
Thud, thud, thunder!
After just a few moves, Lu Hao's arms were covered in blood. Although the sixth-grade leather armor could withstand the damage, it could not completely stop the force from penetrating.
Seeing that he couldn't defeat Lu Hao in several moves, the thin-faced martial artist opposite him feared that Lu Hao would escape and he wouldn't be able to explain himself to Commander Mu. So he also became ruthless.
"Kagu"
With a loud shout, his mental energy pressed down on Lu Hao, simultaneously intimidating him.
broken!
Lu Hao had sensed the thin-faced man's powerful mental energy the moment he first used it to transmit his voice.
After all, to project mental energy externally and achieve the effect of transmitting sound, one needs at least a mental energy level of 500 Hz.
While a typical sixth-grade spiritual power only reaches 500 Hz, the effect of releasing spiritual power in battle is exceptionally good, capable of suppressing or even shocking Lu Hao.
"kill!"
Lu Hao roared, unleashing his inner energy in an attempt to reduce the effect of the mental suppression, but the effect was minimal.
Lu Hao instantly felt a sharp pain in his head, the effect of being attacked by mental energy. At the same time, he felt that most of his mental energy had been consumed, and he instantly felt that he was out of sorts.
The thin-faced man opposite seized the opportunity and slashed at Lu Hao with his knife.
If Lu Hao were in his normal state, it would take a lot of effort to withstand this move. Now that his mental strength has been injured, it's even more difficult. He barely managed to hold up his sword to resist.
The next second, Lu Hao flew more than twenty meters away with his knife.
Lu Hao lay on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His internal organs had likely been severely damaged by the attack.
Lu Hao quickly used his kill points to fully replenish his depleted mental energy and health.
Although my mental energy has been fully replenished, the headache has not subsided, but it's not a big problem now.
Lu Hao did not linger any longer, but instead raised his sword and continued to attack. Now that the opponent's mental energy had been depleted, this was very advantageous for him.
If I don't act now, my condition is declining, and I might just fail here.
Moreover, this was the first time he had suffered such a huge loss, and he was determined to fight back no matter what.
Brothers, I'm begging for monthly votes at the beginning of the month! Double monthly votes please!
