World-saving Plan: The Only Savior
Chapter 111 - 111 9 The New Usage of Mountain River Suppression
111: Chapter 9 The New Usage of Mountain River Suppression 111: Chapter 9 The New Usage of Mountain River Suppression Facing the monster charging towards him with menacing momentum, Zhang Xiaoman couldn’t say he wasn’t nervous; that would definitely be false.
However, compared to when he first encountered these things, although he couldn’t be described as calm and collected, at least he wouldn’t be frozen in fear anymore.
Indeed, people really do grow through challenges.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoman’s muscles were tensed up, ready to respond to the monster’s sudden assault.
From the sword box behind him, two longswords flashing with cold light suddenly flew out.
He had utilized two skills, one from the “Tai Chi” sword activating Mountain River Suppression, and the other from the “Liangyi” sword performing Living Taiji.
Suddenly, two huge sounds of sword resonance thundered, as loud as roaring thunder, deafening!
The moment the monster began to impact Stone Pillar, Yang Yangyang had tightly shut his eyes and started crying out like a pig being slaughtered, not daring to look down the entire time.
It wasn’t until later that Star Guard appeared and began to fight the monster.
Although he heard unusual noises, he still never dared to open his eyes.
After all, this guy was also just a rich heir who had never truly experienced a life-or-death crisis, so it was normal for him to react this way upon seeing such terrifying monsters.
However, the fight between Star Guard and the monster did catch his attention to some extent; Yang Yangyang had thought that in the next second he would fall from the broken pillar and become the monster’s meal…
But, he just couldn’t seem to wait for the sensation of falling.
After calming his emotions slightly, just as he was about to open his eyes to check the situation below, he heard an excruciating buzz from not far off and felt his ears tremble with pain.
The Mountain and River Sword was crafted from the legendary and extremely rare Olharast steel, also known as Resonant Iron.
With the addition of special forging techniques during its creation, the sword could emit the whistling sound of a normal treasure sword cutting through the air with full force simply by moving it lightly.
The monster’s speed was very fast; it rushed towards Zhang Xiaoman in just the blink of an eye.
At that time, the two Mountain and River Swords were still circling in the air, not yet landed.
Zhang Xiaoman knew that they needed to “brew” in the air before taking effect upon landing on the ground.
Among them, the “Tai Chi” sword, unleashed by Mountain River Suppression, was confronting the monster’s attack head-on, while the other “Liangyi” sword was evading it in flight.
Although Zhang Xiaoman also found the piercing sword sounds irritating, perhaps due to the additional point of Constitution from his cloak, it was not to an unbearable extent.
He just frowned, completely focused on the monster that had reached him.
If Mountain River Suppression didn’t take effect when the opponent lunged, he would have to dodge with all his might.
But with his current familiarity with the skills, he had great confidence that the skills he cast this time would be effective!
Indeed, just as the monster was about to pounce on him, facing its sharp and terrifying claws, the Tai Chi Sword didn’t hesitate at all and went straight up to block.
With a flash of cold light and a loud sword resonance, the monster’s two massive claws were severed instantly, and the wounds were so clean that not even blood had time to flow out.
With a “bang,” the monster smashed heavily onto the ground, its assault failing to even touch the hem of Zhang Xiaoman’s clothes.
On the nearby Stone Pillar, the sound of the swords prompted Yang Yangyang to finally open his eyes, just in time to witness this scene.
For a moment, he was utterly stunned and almost failed to grip tightly enough, nearly falling off the pillar.
As for the monster, it was now lying on the ground with both claws amputated by the Mountain and River Swords, howling pitifully and posing hardly any threat.
Zhang Xiaoman had not imagined that when the Invincible Skill was deployed with the Mountain and River Sword, it would have such an effect.
It seemed that reality was indeed different from the game, and there were many things yet awaiting his discovery.
At this time, two Star Guards also ran over, picking up their long spears to deliver the finishing blows to the monster.
In their minds, there was no such thing as underestimating the opponent.
As long as the battle was not over, they would give it their all.
“Pfft~Pfft~Pfft~”
With several sounds of blades piercing flesh, the monster resembling a werewolf howled miserably several times before finally going still.
At that moment, Yang Yangyang also snapped out of his dazed state.
Gazing at the figure not far away, who had a Sword Box on his back and who controlled the sword to slay the Wolf Demon, he couldn’t help but have his eyes sparkle, his entire being engulfed in unstoppable excitement.
“Brother Man!
You’re here!
I knew you would come to save me!”
Yang Yangyang exclaimed excitedly, his hands trembling uncontrollably with ecstasy, as he seemed to wish he could immediately jump down from the Stone Pillar.
Upon seeing this scene, Zhang Xiaoman immediately sensed trouble.
He at once commanded one of the Star Guards to rush over, fearing this guy might carelessly fall down.
It would be quite the irony if he survived the monster only to be killed by a fall.
Sure enough, Zhang Xiaoman’s concerns were justified.
Atop the Stone Pillar, Yang Yangyang, because of his excessive excitement and the pillar’s shake from the Impact, lost his grip and plummeted from mid-air.
Fortunately, at that moment, the Star Guard had reached below him, and promptly extended his arms in a princess carry, capturing him in his embrace.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoman finally let out a sigh of relief and turned to look at the two swords pierced into the ground.
The 5-second invincibility effect of Mountain River Suppression had passed, but the Duration of Life Tai Chi was still not over.
It was evident that within the range of the Living Taiji Sword Formation, illusions of talismans would occasionally emerge in the air, indicating that the Status of Immunity was still being applied to him.
Gently pulling the two swords out of the ground, Zhang Xiaoman looked at their blades, free of any bloodstain, and then raised his hand to re-sheathe them in the Sword Box.
In the process, an inevitable series of resonant hums rose, leaving Yang Yangyang on the other side looking astonished.
“Um, Brother Man…
could you…
let this brother, um, set me down first…
This embrace feels a bit embarrassing…”
Yang Yangyang squirmed and said.
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoman came back to his senses.
The Star Guard had indeed received the command to catch him but had not been instructed to put him down.
As a result, the Star Guard was still holding onto Yang Yangyang, unwilling to let go.
Zhang Xiaoman coughed discreetly and nonchalantly gave the command to put down Yang Yangyang.
The Star Guard, upon receiving the order, immediately spread his arms and dropped the guy onto the ground before swaggering back to Zhang Xiaoman’s side.
“Cough cough cough…”
Upon witnessing this, Zhang Xiaoman couldn’t help but cough awkwardly again.
Perhaps the command he had transmitted was somewhat imprecise, and the methodical guard had resorted to the most straightforward and quickest method to execute the action.
Looking at Yang Yangyang, who was now sitting puzzled and innocently looking up at him, Zhang Xiaoman’s face reddened slightly as he offered a brief explanation:
“They’re not actually human, just guardians I’ve summoned.
They can be a bit rigid in following orders, so…
you’ll get used to it…”
