Chapter Thirty-Three: Miscellaneous Studies

  Han Jin pulled Qili and walked towards the knights with a smile, Qili followed Han Jin for a few steps, but then lowered her head and stopped moving. Han Jin didn't realize that Qili hadn't caught up until he reached the side of the knights, and stretched out his hand to beckon her: "What are you thinking? Come quickly, don't make the adults angry!"

  Qīng Lì's lips were tightly pursed, and tears welled up in her eyes, brimming over with a mixture of grievance and fear, her pitiful expression tugging at the heartstrings.

  In the Holy Crown City, Keli was a famous lady of a noble family. Her beauty and her family's wealth had always been the talk of the town. The Holy Crown City was much more prosperous than the Western City of the Beit Alliance, as it was the capital while the latter was just a garrison city. Those knights had never seen such a beautiful woman before, and they all stared at her in awe.

  "Come here!" Han Jin looked like he was really getting angry, then smiled and said to the leader: "Sir, please don't mind, my sister has a bit of a temper..."

  The friendly leader nodded to Han Jin, he wanted to promote this clever young man as a reward, but unfortunately the other party had no fighting spirit and did not possess magical fluctuations, was simply a waste.

  Qian Li stomped her foot, and tears had already welled up in her eyes. She twisted her waist and took a step forward. Although she had lost control of her emotions just now, which led to trouble, it was only because her previous living environment was too comfortable and indulgent, cultivating her spoiled princess temperament. But this didn't mean she was foolish. Now that she was acting with heart, she performed very convincingly, fully expressing the helplessness and sorrow of a young girl bowing down under brute force.

  The knights, including the leader, were laughing so hard that they couldn't close their mouths and completely forgot that there was still a waste behind them.

  Han Jin's wrist flipped, and a fire talisman flew out of his hand. The distance between him and the magician was too close, so that as soon as the flames took shape, the fire talisman had already slapped onto the magician's head. With a loud bang, countless blood and flesh splattered in all directions along with the fireball. The headless corpse convulsed a few times before collapsing to the ground.

  Han Jin quickly retreated backwards at the fastest speed, flinging out the Wooden Warrior Talisman with a swing of his hand. A cyan light flashed, and a giant about three zhang tall suddenly appeared, swinging its fist to smash down on the Knight Commander.

  Moxinke had already drawn his long sword and was charging towards the knight in front of him, when a black arrow flew past his neck with a whizzing sound. Before Moxinke could even react, the knight opposite him had fallen backwards, an arrow shaft still quivering in the middle of his nose bridge.

  Then came the second arrow, the third arrow. Xian Ni'er's smooth golden hair danced in the wind, her pale green eyes emitted a sharp light that made people dare not look directly at her. Every time she drew and released, an opposing knight fell to the ground.

  Sasori also released his magic, and Han's retreat speed suddenly accelerated. The next acceleration fell on Mosenko. Although they were fighting together for the first time, their tacit understanding was not bad. The person in the most dangerous situation now is Han. First help Han escape, then accelerate Mosenko's rescue speed. Sasori's reaction was correct.

  The leader had already drawn the long sword from his waist and blocked the giant's fist. First, there was a loud crash, followed by a series of explosions. The giant shook violently in the midst of the explosions. People could clearly see that rings of light caused by the explosions were darting back and forth across its body. Then, the leader swung his sword in a wide arc, and the three-meter-tall giant flew out like a straw, flipping over and flying more than ten meters away.

  "Dougi!" Mo Xinkē roared, reminding Han Jin to be careful.

  The leader actually disregarded the lives of his subordinates and the threats from the opposing mage and archer, taking a step forward to chase after Han Jin, showing just how much he hated him.

  Although Han Jin was affected by the acceleration, his retreat speed was still far from that of the leader's swiftness. Moreover, he needed the support of his partner and didn't dare to leave the battle group, so he could only move in an arc. The distance between the two people was rapidly shrinking at an extremely fast speed.

  Han Jin's right hand flipped, and a cluster of black light shot out, shooting straight at the opponent's face. The leader let out a cold hum, he didn't mind this attack, the long sword in his hand had already extended to over two meters, pointing directly at Han Jin.

  A loud explosion, a sudden black light screen wrapped the leader tightly, his footsteps stumbled slightly, and then quickly rushed out of the light screen.

  Han Jin's body spun around, changing the direction of his escape, and with a flick of his wrist, another dark light flew out.

  The knight leader didn't dare to be careless, the sword's edge slanted and stabbed into that cluster of dark light, with a loud crash, the black light exploded on the tip of the sword.

  Han Jin took a few steps forward and with his right hand swung back, three black lights in the shape of a "pin" character shot towards the leader of the knights.

  The classification of Taoist schools is very complex and has strict restrictions. A cultivator who practices internal skills cannot practice external skills at the same time, as some techniques have too many conflicts. However, Han Jin is an exception, and can even be said to be a master of miscellaneous studies. He has dabbled in internal skills, external skills, and Taoist skills, and can even explain the obscure and difficult-to-understand Qimen 36 Techniques. Of course, he is far from being proficient, because he cultivates energy, which does not have conflicts, whereas all techniques are for the purpose of accumulating or consuming energy.

  No matter how other cultivators view Han Jin, he always believes that he has the capital to be proud of. In short, it is about comparing who has a harder fist with those who cultivate internal skills, who has more Taoist techniques with those who cultivate external skills, and who has a deeper realm with those who cultivate Taoist techniques...

  Even the likes of Tai Chi and internal alchemy, which many cultivators looked down upon, Han Jin had dabbled in. Although his time spent on each was short, some lasting only two weeks before he abandoned them, Han Jin had already grasped the correct fundamental skills. His master never interfered with him, saying that all methods ultimately converged into one! When true cultivation approached its highest realm, all schools of thought were actually without distinction.

  The knight leader swung his sword in a horizontal sweep, and a wave-like sword edge cut through the sky. Han Jin used a special technique to throw out three magic crystals, all of which were crushed into powder. The black light screen that exploded open was also torn apart, but the distance between him and Han Jin opened up by several meters again.

  On this side, Han Jin was desperately fleeing, while on the other side, Mo Xinkai and others were in a dominant position. Among the remaining knights, only two people truly deserved the title of knight, and the rest were just high-ranking warriors. Mo Xinkai wielded his giant sword, charging forward recklessly, Xanier's arrows never missed their mark, and Sasou continuously released magic spells. The three of them joined forces, and in the blink of an eye, they took down most of the knights. In the end, only two true knights were left struggling to hold on.

  The knight leader saw that the situation was not good, his long sword pointed to the distant sky, and the tip of the sword seemed to be inlaid with a bright pearl, shining brightly. The light grew brighter and brighter, making it impossible for people to open their eyes.

  "Raging explosion!!" Along with a furious roar, a white light sphere about one meter in diameter shot out and chased after Han Jin.

  Just as the white light was about to engulf Han Jin, a giant rushed over and opened his arms to block in front of him.

  With a loud crash, the giant was like being hit by a shell and flew backward, Han Jin was knocked flying, his body involuntarily pounced out 7 or 8 meters away, rolling on the ground. He only felt his throat getting sweet, stars flashing in front of his eyes, his hands and feet also feeling a bit soft, struggling twice, but couldn't get up.
