Chapter 336: Chapter 137: Blade Gang Shatters Blade Gang! Monster Warrior!_2

The specter before me must be a demon shadow. Slaying it might lead to a great reward!

“Die!” n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Although his blade had not killed the demon shadow, Su Changkong didn’t feel the slightest bit discouraged. He knew that as long as he kept up the relentless attacks, inflicting fatal injuries continuously, he could keep wearing it down. Even demons would die eventually.

Iron Cutting Blade Technique, Upward Slash!

Su Changkong’s second slash was from below upwards, aiming to rip open the demon shadow’s belly and cleave it in two. Then he would proceed to slash it relentlessly until it was hacked into countless pieces and killed.

But something astonishing happened that left Su Changkong in awe.

The demon shadow didn’t just let itself be slaughtered. Its hands twisted the dark stream of energy into a longbow, which then morphed into a longsword in an instant, looking exactly like the Iron-Cutting Sword that Su Changkong was wielding!

“Tsst!”

The demon shadow also swung its sword, but from above downwards in a chopping motion. The slash felt as heavy as a thunderbolt and was coated with an extremely condensed layer of black energy, which was Blade Gang.

“Clang!!”

The swords collided, emitting a deafening clang of metal on metal. The forces on their blades, unwilling to give in to each other, exploded into shockwaves, like invisible blades slicing through the air. It chopped up the plants and trees within a thirty-foot radius and left the ground furrowed with deep, crisscrossing cracks.

Hum!

The Iron-Cutting Sword made of Star Pattern Gold vibrated with a hum and the recoil numbed and pained Su Changkong’s sword-wielding arm. The demon shadow’s body also trembled slightly. In this head-on collision, they were evenly matched!

“This is Blade Gang… can he use Blade Gang too?”

Su Changkong was somewhat astonished—the demon shadow had also unleashed Blade Gang to catch his impregnable slash.

“Could this demon shadow have the ability to imitate others’ martial arts? Is this some demon art unique to demons?”

Su Changkong was no fool. Recalling the Wind Thunder Archery the demon shadow had used just before and the Blade Gang it had employed now, he immediately understood something.

The demon shadow was probably some sort of demon monster, and such creatures naturally possessed a variety of bizarre demon arts. Previously, Feng Mo could separate his limbs from his body to attack, a feat accomplished through his demon art.

The demon shadow’s demon art was even queerer; it could mimic the abilities of the enemy! Once it had seen a technique used, it could display it just as effectively!

However, whether this demon art could only imitate for a short period or indefinitely was unclear.

“This demon monster… is far more terrifying and troublesome than Feng Mo!”

Su Changkong realized that, in comparison to the demon shadow, Feng Mo’s threat was significantly lesser.

“Chop!”

Despite his thoughts racing like lightning, there was no hesitation in Su Changkong’s movements. With a thunderous shout, he switched to holding the sword with both hands, bringing it down heavily on the demon shadow. The dark silver blade, with dazzling star patterns shining on it, focused Blade Gang into a single point, cleaving through anything in its path.

Even before the blade fell, the ground had already been sliced open by the menacing sharpness, revealing an alarming fissure.

And the demon shadow before him also wielded the sword with both hands, but with an upward slash from below, its blade condensed from dark energy flows and coated with Blade Gang!

“Clang!!”

Blade Gang clashed against Blade Gang, and the resulting clang resounded for miles, reverberating endlessly. The collision of identical energies shattered them both, forming whirlwinds that cut the ground and trees, leaving visible traces in the air!

“He’s using moves and martial arts techniques identical to mine!”

Su Changkong couldn’t help but feel shocked.

The demon shadow’s demon art was too powerful, beyond belief; imitating his blade technique, it could even use Blade Gang just as effectively, matching him blow for blow!

“Kill!”

Su Changkong was now truly incensed. The Blade-shaped Gang Qi within his body trembled. Resonating with the Iron-Cutting Sword in his hand, his entire body radiated a terrifying sharp aura. Anyone approaching Su Changkong would be shredded into pieces!

Like hammering gold and iron, Su Changkong wielded the Iron-Cutting Sword like a hammer, continuously chopping and smashing with tremendous force, pushing the blade technique to its utmost limits.

“Clang clang clang!”

Yet he couldn’t inflict even the slightest injury on the demon shadow, for the shadow seemed like Su Changkong’s mirror image—with the same martial arts skills, speed, and strength. The deafening sound of metal on metal meant neither could gain an upper hand.

“This won’t do… He’s using the same martial arts and techniques I am, but this way, the one bound to lose is me. I’m human, made of flesh and blood! I don’t have an immortal body!”

Su Changkong’s heart turned cold as he realized the danger.

Being equally matched, if the fight dragged on, he was bound to lose. Just one misstep, and even if his blow bisected the demon shadow, it wouldn’t kill it. But a single slash from the demon shadow and he would die!

Under equal combat strength, a martial artist could hardly ever defeat a demon monster. There was simply no comparing their physical constitutions and life forces.

That was the terrifying aspect of the demon shadow—it could use its demon art to mimic the opponent’s techniques, but as a demon monster with an immortal body, it was certain the enemy would be defeated!

The method to defeat the demon shadow was simple in theory: crush or severely wound it with the first strike, without giving it the chance to mimic one’s techniques. But that was easier said than done!

As the two fought to a standstill, neither able to gain an advantage over the other and both impervious to defeat, suddenly, the air trembled violently.
