The Legend of the Netherworld

Chapter 117 The Bull Demon Who Loves Trees

Seeing that Lin Xiao was about to hit the ginkgo tree behind him hard, Haotian Tianniu suddenly disappeared from the spot, appeared behind Lin Xiao in an instant, and knocked him away again.

Lin Xiao was blown away again before he had a chance to catch his breath, and he felt the air around him was shaking.

Haotian Tianniu tried to use the same trick for the third time, trying to blow Lin Xiao away in the opposite direction.

At this moment, although Lin Xiao was still being knocked away, he suddenly reacted and used the "Eight Diagrams Sword Formation Defense". Countless long swords appeared behind him, forming a sword formation to resist Haotian Tianniu's heavy punch.

Although the sword formation was broken up by Haotian Tianniu in an instant, it bought Lin Xiao a little breathing time.

He turned around and flipped backwards quickly, putting some distance between him and Haotian Tianniu. He put his hands in front of him to signal for him to stop, and exclaimed in his heart: "As expected of the ninth level of transformation, the sense of oppression he gives people is indeed very strong."

"Stop!" Lin Xiao said in a deep voice, trying his best to stay calm.

Haotian Tianniu clenched his left hand into a fist and grasped his left wrist tightly with his right hand. A fierce look flashed in his eyes and he instantly appeared in front of Lin Xiao. He threw an uppercut with endless brute force, and the air seemed to tremble under this punch.

Lin Xiao's face suddenly changed. He turned around quickly and narrowly avoided the hook punch. He felt the wind whistling past his ears and his heart tightened.

Haotian Bull followed closely behind, continuing to get close to Lin Xiao and punching him non-stop. Lin Xiao kept dodging under the heavy pressure, avoiding the punches by the hairline each time. He thought to himself, "This bull's power really can't be underestimated. I have to find a way to escape!"

Seeing that Haotian Tianniu was so belligerent, Lin Xiao secretly became ruthless in his heart and no longer showed mercy. He used the "Bi Luo Sword Rain Weaving" without hesitation.

In an instant, his figure was suspended in the air, and countless long swords around him smashed towards the Haotian Tianniu on the ground like meteors. The sword light flashed, like stars across the sky.

However, at the moment when the sword rain was about to hit, Haotian Tianniu disappeared from the spot like a ghost, and his real body appeared behind Lin Xiao.

It swung its strong hooves and knocked Lin Xiao to the ground heavily, instantly forming a deep pit on the ground and raising dust.

Haotian Niu showed no mercy. He grabbed Lin Xiao's head and smashed it left and right like a rag doll, then angrily threw Lin Xiao far away.

Seeing that Lin Xiao was about to hit the ginkgo tree in the distance, Haotian Tianniu rushed forward hurriedly and stretched out his palm to try to block him.

At this moment, an idea flashed through Lin Xiao's mind, and he realized Haotian Tianniu's weakness.

Although he was still bound, he moved his fingers and a dagger flew towards the ginkgo tree in the distance.

"No!" Haotian Tianniu roared, with a trace of fear in his eyes.

However, the dagger pierced the ginkgo tree mercilessly, leaving a noticeable hole and making a crisp sound, as if announcing its powerlessness.

Haotian Niu looked at the pierced ginkgo angrily, his heart burning with rage. He gently threw Lin Xiao away and then used the "Eighteen Bull Fists".

Each move carried unparalleled terrifying power and hit Lin Xiao's chest hard.

Lin Xiao felt a force as powerful as a mountain. With the last move, he was knocked heavily to the ground. Blood spurted out of his mouth and his face turned pale.

At this time, Haotian Tianniu tried to crush Lin Xiao's head with its feet, but the moment it raised its feet, he caught a glimpse of a black light and a white light suddenly flying out, which pierced the ginkgo tree in front of them together.

This time there were no longer two holes, but the ginkgo tree in front of him collapsed with a loud bang, as if the entire ginkgo forest was shaking.

"No, I will kill you. I will use your body to bury the ginkgo tree!" Haotian Tianniu roared angrily, the sound was deafening, and the ground shook slightly.

Haotian Niu retracted his ox foot and angrily grabbed Lin Xiao's collar, attempting to perform the "Eighteen Styles of Bull Fist" again to beat Lin Xiao to death.

However, before the first move was made, the two ginkgo trees in front of him collapsed with a loud bang. The two trees fell to the ground with a loud bang. The powerful force shook the earth, and the slight vibration was transferred to Haotian Tianniu and Lin Xiao.

Haotian Tianniu suddenly panicked. Seeing the dagger and long sword flying towards the fourth ginkgo tree, he immediately put down Lin Xiao in his hand, flew in front of the ginkgo tree in an instant, and grabbed the long sword and dagger with his bare hands.

Seeing that the dagger and the sword were all under his control, Haotian Tianniu breathed a sigh of relief, slowly turned around and faced Lin Xiao. His face was still filled with endless anger, and he even wanted to tear Lin Xiao into pieces.

However, at this time, Haotian Tianniu discovered that Lin Xiao was floating in the air, with countless sword rains floating behind him, and the sword light was flashing like stars in the sky.

With Lin Xiao's wave of the sword, a rain of swords suddenly flew towards the ginkgo forest in front of him, as if to raze the ginkgo forest to the ground. A suffocating murderous aura revealed in the sword light.

“Stop!!” Haotian Tianniu pleaded loudly, his tone full of helplessness and fear.

Lin Xiao did not want to be enemies with Haotian Tianniu. His purpose was to find answers.

After hearing the word "stop", Lin Xiao waved his hand, and the rain of swords instantly dissipated in the air, slowly falling to the ground, looking calmly at Haotian Tianniu.

At this moment, a drop of cold sweat slid down Haotian Tianniu's cheek. It re-examined the young man in front of it, its heart filled with doubt. It was unbelievable that a human cultivator of the Jiazi Ninth Realm could withstand its "Eighteen Bull Fists" and even threaten it.

Haotian Tianniu finally spoke: "Go and apologize to my Ginkgo first, otherwise I won't let you go!!"

After listening to this, Lin Xiao thought to himself: "It seems that this Haotian Tianniu still can't put himself in the right position." A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and with a wave of his hand, the long sword and dagger once again flew rapidly towards the nearest ginkgo tree. The sword light cut through the air and pointed directly at the target.

"Stop!" Haotian Tianniu roared, "I don't want you to apologize. If you have any concerns, just speak up."

Lin Xiao smiled slightly and said casually, "How about the dozen punches you just threw at me and the fallen ginkgo trees around here cancel each other out?"

"Okay." Haotian Tianniu gritted his teeth and agreed even though he was reluctant in his heart.

"Okay!" Seeing that the negotiation was going smoothly, Lin Xiao continued to ask, "Do you know the word 'Netherworld'?"

When Haotian Tianniu heard Lin Xiao's question, his expression suddenly darkened, his eyes flashing with complex emotions, and he whispered, "What? What did you say?"

Lin Xiao noticed Haotian Tianniu's reaction and felt a little alert. He knew that the word "Netherworld" must be hiding an unknown secret, which seemed to have touched a string deep in its heart.

"Regarding the word "Netherworld", may I ask, Old Niu, if you know any relevant clues? I hope you can tell me," Lin Xiao said curiously but firmly.
