16. Blooming Flower Formation
1108 Words
The masked men quickly spread out, surrounding Shen Ming in a circle with their weapons drawn.
Their eyes, which were originally colored with fear, now seemed to radiate a gleam of courage that came from nowhere.
Shen Ming, who was in the middle of the circle, only smiled faintly while playing with his fingers behind his waist.
Shen Ming did not appear to be underestimating his opponents, but was calculating their strength and he also had to prepare a surprise for his enemies.
The fifteen masked people around Shen Ming looked like they were exerting some powerful force. There was a shock of dark aura that came suddenly and entered their bodies so that the air around the place changed very quickly.
The cold air felt colder and colder, making the atmosphere even more tense and tense.
The moonlight mixed with the firelight from the lantern flame seemed to be dimmed by the evil aura around the place.
Inevitably, the hairs on the back of Shen Ming's neck bristled slightly due to the presence of this quite strong dark power. The circle of people surrounding him seemed to have turned into ghosts ready to take his life.
This evil aura felt a little familiar to Shen Ming.
"I seem to have met people who have this kind of dark aura. But, what is their relationship with that person?" Shen Ming muttered as he looked around and saw human shadows rushing towards him very quickly.
Shen Ming swiftly responded to every attack after attack from Mo Jiao and his men. Even though he was outnumbered, that didn't mean defeat was guaranteed on his part.
Shen Ming only used his bare hands and didn't want to take out any weapons yet. The man nimbly avoided and occasionally caught his opponent's weapon to repel it against his friend's weapon.
What's worse, it turns out that these masked people were too united in their attacks. They used the Blossom Flower formation which turned out to be quite troublesome for Shen Ming.
The Blossom Flower formation could be said to be a continuous attack taking turns and one after another that seemed to have no end.
Five people attack, the other five will move away and if five people are pressed, the other five people will immediately attack from an unexpected direction.
But what was even more surprising, these masked people seemed to have five shadows each that could move independently. If you count it, Shen Ming is currently fighting seventy-five people, which is almost close to a squad of troops.
Shen Ming really couldn't relax for a moment, even taking a breath seemed like there was no chance.
"What kind of crazy formation is this? These fifteen people each have five shadows whose movements are very fast and the killing aura from within them feels stronger than their real bodies!" Shen Ming thought as he dodged dozens of swords that attacked him brutally.
Wow!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Wow!
Shen Ming had to block ten swords that almost hit his body and caused the shin bones in his wrist to break.
Shen Ming grimaced in pain, but he didn't have time to enjoy the pain in his wrist. the man had to immediately bend his body to save himself from attacks from other directions.
"Crazy! They really seem to be possessed by the devil!" Shen Ming shouted in his heart and felt increasingly dizzy with this formation. "It's fortunate that these people's strength is still at the second stageI can't even imagine if they were at a higher stage than this."
"It seems like I can't continue to survive like this without a fight. I might die a silly death in their hands!" Shen Ming thought while still dodging the attacks that came one after another.
"What will that man do?" From behind his shadow space, Qing Yuan saw Shen Ming shoot up into the air with quick and light movements. "Hmm, that person's knowledge of lightening the body is quite good."
Qing Yuan then turned his gaze to another direction and he could only hold his breath at the sight there.
The beautiful eyes behind his ugly mask saw Yu Shan and Mo Jiao fighting at close range. The aura there was very different from the aura at the scene where Shen Ming fought against Mo Jiao's men.
The roar of the battle seemed to burst the eardrums, accompanied by flashes of two blue and yellow lights that were chasing each other, attacking, twisting and exploding violently.
"Hmm, I'm very lucky to be able to enjoy this interesting spectacle." Qing Yuan said to himself while leaning his back on the roof of the building. "Just let them drain their energy and I'll only come out when the situation is favorable enough for me."
Qing Yuan still didn't seem to have the intention to intervene and preferred to just watch.
A flash of human shadow came from behind Qing Yuan and it made the young man reflexively direct his punch quickly in the direction where the sound of the wind rushing around his back came from.
Qing Yuan snapped loudly. "Who?"
"Chief, it's me!"
Two of Qing Yuan's fingers almost penetrated the neck of the owner of the male voice who was already kneeling with his body shaking. Qing Yuan parried his blow and looked at the masked human who was kneeling with a gasp.
"Qing Sha?" Qing Yuan was shocked and immediately withdrew his hand.
He stepped back and put his hands behind his waist.
Qing Yuan thought, wasn't he currently in the shadow space of the Demonic Shadow technique?
If it is not someone who owns this knowledge, then no one will know of its existence.
It could be said that Demonic Shadow Science seems to have its own realm in which to hide and only people with the same knowledge can find each other.
"That's right, Chief. It's me, Qing Sha." Qing Sha clenched both his hands into fists.
Qing Yuan returned to being graceful. "You almost made me kill you, Qing Sha."
Qing Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he found out who had come. But he remembered something. "Hey, didn't I assign you to be in Commander Yang Shui's armyTell me what news do you have and where is your group and Brother Shui?"
"I'm sorry if I surprised you. I was in a hurry and luckily found the Chief here." Qing Sha said while still kneeling. "I was sent by Commander Yang Shui to report that our group was ambushed on the way by a group of people we didn't know."
Qing Yuan felt anxious. "So?"
