Chapter 14: The Seven Strikes of No Form

A bullet struck Dalba's right chest! A wound the size of a teacup spurted blood like a fountain.

This was still due to Qian Xing's slash, which had made the fat man, who had already locked onto Dalba's forehead, miss his target. Otherwise, Dalba's head would have already become a mushy melon!

Dalba went mad, wildly swinging his demon-subduing staff, which produced a sharp, eerie howl!

Before Qian Xing could even think, his hand moved like lightning to scoop up a small box and store it in his inventory.

The other four members of Team 1023, the green-haired zombie had become a human stick, held in the hand of the horse-headed monster. The green-scaled creature was using its ten sword-like claws to circle and engage the horse-headed monster in guerrilla warfare.

The giant-sworded man Griffith and the long-armed bitter gourd face were busy dealing with the centurion's cavalry charge and Dalba's frenzied counterattack. No one expected the fat man to die so quickly after being hit by a not-so-powerful slash!

Therefore, this crucial small copper box, which had appeared in the corner of their eyes, had already fallen into Qian Xing's hands!

A nearly perfect ambush!

To be able to grasp the timing of an ambush so perfectly, Qian Xing didn't seem like a third-year student at all.

After all, if a person could repeatedly plunge their soft, white hands into sand for years, their determination could be said to have reached a pathological level!

Thanks to his trained strong will, Qian Xing was able to seize this great opportunity today.

The remaining three members of Team 1023 who could still move were so angry that their eyes turned blue, but after Qian Xing's strike, he immediately mixed into the surging Mongol soldiers. In the chaos, not only was it impossible to find this beast fighter to settle accounts, but the incoming charging knights, the frenzied Dalba, and the horse-headed monster were enough to keep them busy.

The long-armed bitter gourd face finally unleashed his ultimate move. He leaped up about five meters high, his body rapidly spinning in the air like a large wheel, with his two rubbery arms acting like the steel rims of the wheel, transforming him into a rapidly spinning flail.

The air, under the high-speed rotation of this wheel, appeared distorted.

The rapidly spinning flail, using its two rapidly rotating rubbery arms as fists, struck down at Dalba, who was fiercely attacking the giant-sworded man, with the momentum of splitting mountains and seas!

"Dragon King Coil!" A C-level skill!

Once the target is hit, they will suffer a barrage of punches in an extremely short time. The iron fists of the long-armed bitter gourd face can shatter a centurion's head with one strike, showing just how powerful this C-level skill is!

After all, even the Nine Yin Manual, a peak-level martial art, only reaches C+ level at its highest level!

Dalba had already been hit by two bullets, and no matter what, they had to concentrate their efforts to take him down!

The remaining members of Team 1023 were all experienced in combat, and they automatically formed a concentrated attack on Dalba without needing to be reminded.

However, they once again underestimated the power of the horse-headed monster.

This tall and fierce horse-headed monster, ignoring the sword-like claws of the green-scaled creature, forcefully leaped high into the air. The surface of the blood-colored wolf-toothed club burst with a red light over a foot long, and with the momentum of a meteor colliding with Earth, it met the rapidly spinning flail from below!

A sound like a car engine suddenly revving up echoed, and the tall horse-headed monster was smashed back to the ground, its large hooves deeply embedded in the soil.

The rapidly spinning "Dragon King Coil" also disappeared in the air, and the long-armed bitter gourd face, spewing blood, tumbled and landed several meters away, immediately facing the attack of several Mongol soldiers upon landing.

Taking advantage of the horse-headed monster's hooves being stuck in the ground, the green-scaled creature bent and extended its legs, suddenly lunging at Dalba, its ten claws like ten swords, resembling a green tiger pouncing from the air.

Dalba's right arm reversed, and a mouthful of blood spurted onto the golden demon-subduing staff. The staff immediately emitted a golden glow, with seven substantial shadows striking the green-scaled creature that was pouncing from the air.

The blood Dalba spat out was his own essence, which he used to activate the inherent skill of the demon-subduing staff, "Seven Strikes of No Form."

The Seven Strikes of No Form created seven illusions of the demon-subduing staff, but each illusion had the same attack power as the staff itself!

This meant that Dalba's strike had seven times the power of his usual swings!

The green-scaled creature's sword-like claws were first struck by two golden demon-subduing staffs!

The two golden staffs immediately dissipated in the air, but the green-scaled creature's ten sword-like claws, which could cut through metal, instantly turned into two clumps of flesh mixed with broken bones.

Then, the remaining five demon-subduing staffs almost simultaneously struck the green-scaled creature's head and shoulders while it was still in mid-air.

Although the green-scaled creature's body was covered with incredibly hard green scales, these scales had allowed it to withstand enemy attacks many times while also piercing enemies' chests with its sword-like claws, surviving with injuries.

This is why the green-scaled creature dared to pounce on Dalba, willing to trade its own injuries for Dalba's death.

However, it miscalculated today. Normally, magical weapons like the demon-subduing staff have a bonus effect against monsters.

Moreover, the demon-subduing staff had transformed into seven!

The green-scaled creature's scales on its head and shoulders only withstood the strikes of two demon-subduing staffs, while the last three staffs shattered its head and shoulders into a pile of mush, just like the Mongol soldiers on the ground!

The skill "Seven Strikes of No Form" reached B-level because it was not just a simple martial art but also contained significant magical elements.

After using the "Seven Strikes of No Form" skill, Dalba's face turned deathly pale, as if he had aged more than five years in an instant!

That mouthful of essence blood was equivalent to five years of Dalba's lifespan!
