The Game Warrior
Chapter 23: A tougher guy.

For Tantric's plan, the Zen Buddhism in the central plan did not boycott much . They only teamed with sects including Sanlun, Faxiang, Tiantai, Huayan, Jingtu and Lv to issue tasks to gamers to expel the Tantric’s intrusion .

The reward for these tasks was very attractive . There were reputations and monetary rewards, as well as a chance to be connected to the Zen Buddhism in the central land .

Gamers who accomplished the tasks could also have the chance to become a part-time Shaolin disciple . They can enjoy life-long discounts when they make purchases in temples . Moreover, they could also have the opportunities to buy some precious Shaolin medicines that were not circulating in the market, such as ‘Zhenyusan’’Huoluodan’and ’Xiaohuandan’ .

There were also rewards of higher levels . But currently no gamers were able to accomplish those tasks . Hence, this was not a place for ordinary gamers to practice and to level up .

They can only blame that the‘Big Palm’was a skill hard to deal with .

For example, at this moment, another lama was using ‘Big Palm’, which had a powerful attacking strength . This was an intermediary level martial arts skill . Gamers who were hit by this skill would either die or become handicapped . But it had a completely opposite effect when it was hit on the companions . It could revive and bring the dying companions back to life .

Dugu Hong didn’t feel the slightest horror facing this . He just let the other lama using ‘Big Palm’to save his companion . Secretly, Dugu Hong had already sent his powerful internal force into the body of the dying lama via the axe that cut him through .

No matter whether the reserve power was to help to destroy a person, if the body channel was too small to accommodate the power flow that far exceeded its capacity, the ending was determined .

In a split second, the lama's meridian broked into pieces . Dugu Hong waved the ‘Stone Cracking Axe’onto the other lama who did not have any precautions .

Among all the gamers, there was only Dugu Hong who was able to kill the Tantric enemies this easy .

Dudu Hong sighed while he was picking up the few copper coins left by the lamas . He sighed not because there were too few copper coins left but because he killed both the lamas taking advantage of their support and friendship .

When a person was used to logical judgement, he would subconsciously react even when being alone .

Just as Dugu Hong was blaming himself, there came the voice of Niuhuang, “Boss, come over . There’s a tougher enemy here!”

A thin and tall dark shadow crossed the grass and the forest, like flying arrows .

Behind him was a red shadow, with clothes fluttering . Tapping a top of the toes on the tree leaves, the shadow was as light as a cloud but as fast as wind .

Monsters were not everywhere in “The martial world” . A gamer usually needed to pack his food and water and looked for monsters before he could kill them to earn rewards .

Therefore, a best practice was for one weak gamer attracting monsters and the other strong gamer hid before killing the monsters . A combination like Niuhuang and Dugu Hong was the perfect match .

Since coming to this territory where no gamers were willing to set foot in, Niuhuang’s skill of ‘Ghost Wind’leveled up again . Without the boots, Dugu Hong could no longer catch up with Niuhuang even after he burst his agility .

Hence, it could be imagined how fast the red Lama’s speed was for him to be able to gradually approaching Niuhuang .

In the blink of an eye, the two came to where Dudu Hong was . Niuhuang quickly slid away from Dugu Hong and said, “Boss, it’s your turn now . Be careful!”

His voice was full of ridicule, which was not a friendly alert but the pleasure of finally slapped a friend .

Basically, these two were not a cooperative team . The only reason behind their grouping was to take advantage of the skills the other party was best at .

Within a certain limit, it was their only entertainment to make fun of the other one by getting him into troubles .

Dugu Hong didn’t dare to neglect the power of the red Lama even without Niuhuang’s alert . He waved his ‘Stone Cracking Axe’ and shouted, “Cut watermelon!”

Axe lightening slashed onto the red lama .

Axe lightening slashed onto the red lama .

The red lama fluttered around, and he avoided the lightning before his feet stepped on the ground .

"Cut ears!" Dugu Hong reacted quickly and swept his axe out .

However, the red Lama was even faster . His toe tipped on the ground lightly and floated into the sky like a red could, surpassing the surface of the axe .

"Toothpick!" Dugu Hong changed his hit again .

The Lama finally struck back . He extended his white jade hand from the sleeve and touched on the tip of the axe . He quickly retreated against the axe, avoiding the cut by the axe .

Dugu Hong thought he successfully forced the opponent out of the range . But the red shadow turned downside up, hooked the axe with his toes and turned back into Dugu Hong again .

During these few rounds, none of them took advantage over the other party . In fact, it was easy to tell which side had advantage .

Dugu Hong’s axe was powerful . But the red Lama was like a weightless leaf . No matter how fast the axe was, the leaf would be blown away by the axe before the axe cut onto it .

This was a defining difference . If Dugu Hong kept waving his axe like lifting weights, he would never be able to hit the red Lama .

This was a defining difference . If Dugu Hong kept waving his axe like lifting weights, he would never be able to hit the red Lama .

With the hook on his toes, the red Lama rushed into Dugu Hong again . It looked like a repeat of the beginning, but it was totally different .

The programmers of "The martial world” obviously had read the history . They knew that if the ‘Cheng’s Axe’didn’t hit the enemies within three steps, the axe holder would run away immediately . Hence, they added an interesting bonus to the ‘Cheng’s Axe’—

Extra double synchronization rate, flapping speed, heavy hit and special effect trigger bonus were added .

These bonuses could be described as ‘terror’and were also the reason why the ‘Cheng’s Axe’could be comparable to high level skills . But, once this final hit was used and failed, it meant that there was no way for the axe to hit the red Lama anymore .

Dugu Hong took out his ‘Meteor Sword’ . White mist started to condense around him .

Cangshan, also known as Diancangshan, or Baitoushan .

Cang meant white in ancient Chinese . In Cangshan mountain, there were 19 mountain peaks covered with snow all year around and surrounded by white clouds . It was one of the best views in Dali city .

It was said that ‘Cangshan Yunxue Sword‘ was inspired by this . And Dugu Hong launched the skills from ‘Cangshan Yunxue Sword’with his ‘Meteor Sword’ .

The red Lama flew like a fire in the snow, and easily stirred up Dugu Hong’s Cangshan Yunxue Swordmanship .
