Shi Mu confronted the approaching whip head-on since he had expected this kind of an attack. He quickly inclined his body towards the left, and dodged the whip’s thrust. Then, he launched his counter-attack by producing ten cuts in one breath with his blade. Each of the cuts emitted-out cold light, and produced blade-shadows. These ten blade-shadows roared towards Ruan Zhi.
Ruan Zhi’s complexion changed as he saw this. But, it didn’t affect his mind. He quickly responded by flicking his wrist. His long whip swayed in air, and formed a black net in front of his body; like a spider’s web. The black whip-net acted as a shield to protect his body.
Shi Mu sneered as he saw this. But, he didn’t slow down his blade.
Bang!
The ten blade-shadows crashed against the black whip-net with an ear-piercing sound. The collision transferred a huge jolt to the net shield. Then, the blade shadows disappeared.
