The situation becomes increasingly evident, Li Banfeng now feels an inexplicable trepidation when seeing a place with holes.
In utter helplessness, Li Banfeng opens the door and enters the Portable Residence.
Hua Manchun was startled, noticing Li Qi was gone.
Where did he go?
His leaving was quite good, quickly aiding his escape, Hua Manchun hastened a few steps, in a blink, Li Qi chased up from behind.
After returning to the Portable Residence, the wife helped Li Banfeng sort things out, fortunately moving quickly enough, not delaying the pursuit.
Li Qi summoned the shadow once more, this time with caution, neither the body nor shadow touched Hua Manchun's technique.
The body wielded a sickle, the shadow held a shovel, both sides cooperated seamlessly, occasionally slicing Hua Manchun.
The severely injured Hua Manchun stood on the swamp, suddenly motionless, he looked towards Li Banfeng's body.
He realized that Li Banfeng was testing some method on him.
Hua Manchun indeed took injury, but given his status, he absolutely could not endure such mockery.
Running so far along the way, he had already shaken off Feng Daiku and Ma Wu behind him, leaving only him and Li Qi here now.
"Come, let's determine life and death!" Hua Manchun no longer cared about Li Banfeng's shadow, nor its origins, solely focusing on Li Banfeng's body.
He opted to stand on the swamp because its geology was most soft, unsuitable for the Traveling Cultivator to perform techniques, possibly even footing in air.
Once the Traveling Cultivator's steps were controlled, the rest was just receiving blows.
Hua Manchun prepared to gamble, first using the swamp to kill Li Banfeng, once the body dies, the shadow would naturally disappear alongside.
Upon sorting out this side, heal properly, then think of dealing with Feng Daiku.
Amid contemplation, Li Banfeng along with his shadow charged together towards Hua Manchun, approaching the swamp, the shadow suddenly stepped into the swamp, extending hands, holding Li Banfeng's feet.
Li Banfeng stepped onto the shadow's hands, facing two choices next, one was to directly leap up, riding the shadow's lift, up close to Hua Manchun, flipping him over.
This choice was relatively safe, but the problem was the air time being slightly long, with Hua Manchun's combat prowess, he could perfectly utilize techniques on Li Banfeng during this moment.
The second combat technique, leveraging the shadow's lift, performing a Short Step, sneaking forward a step, directly engaging in a close battle, solving Hua Manchun.
The second combat technique was what Li Banfeng truly desired as the outcome, hoping to perform Short Step while with the shadow.
Yet this combat technique was somewhat risky, failing to perform Short Step would leave Li Banfeng possibly trapped in the swamp.
Li Banfeng decided to gamble, as Hua Manchun had sustained severe injury, even with mishaps, Li Banfeng was confident in escaping.
Following the principles of Short Step, he stepped on the shadow's hands, rushed towards Hua Manchun.
Hua Manchun assumed Li Banfeng would jump up, just preparing to block the high air, only to find Li Banfeng falling into the swamp.
Short Step failed, Li Banfeng couldn't sneak out this step, now was about to get trapped in the swamp.
He seemed like stepping onto a hot iron plate, both feet rapidly tapping the swamp, trying to find a foothold, yet never succeeded.
"Li Qi, you chose your own demise."
Hua Manchun was going to use a technique!
What can be done now, unable to stand steadily, how to dodge?
Li Banfeng moved faster and faster over the swamp, toes frantically tapping the ground, so quick they seemed unreal.
But the ground beneath became softer with each step, Li Banfeng couldn't find a foothold, no matter the speed, he couldn't control the direction.
Hua Manchun's technique was coming, this time using the Joyful Fire Burning Body skill, once Li Banfeng got infected, he would inevitably ignite from inside out.
In urgency, Li Banfeng's feet suddenly left the ground, his entire self rising into the air.
Was this a jump?
Impossible, in the swamp, Li Banfeng didn't even have a place to stand stably, such soft ground, how could one jump up?
Li Banfeng was actually flying!
The damp air of the swamp beneath feet flowed like water.
Li Banfeng utilized strides similar to swimming, stepping on air to ascend, this was the Wind Riding Cloud Driving Skill.
Since reaching the Second Layer among Traveling Cultivator, Li Banfeng anticipated flying every day, yet never learned until this moment.
Hua Manchun's technique hit over, Li Banfeng perceived danger, easily dodging it in mid-air.
This was the difference between flying and jumping, if just jumping, as long as Hua Manchun recognized Li Banfeng's movement technique, Li Banfeng surely couldn't escape.
But if flying, Li Banfeng could change direction anytime in the air.
Flying mid-air, Li Banfeng was incredibly joyful, looking down at Hua Manchun, even more pleasing matters lay ahead.
The shadow stuck in the swamp, wielding a shovel, was fighting fiercely with Hua Manchun.
The shadow still existed, proving Li Banfeng could simultaneously, while using Shadow Hanging Technique, perform other techniques, including such a high-tier technique as Wind Riding Cloud Driving Skill.
Li Banfeng was overly excited, flying two circles around Hua Manchun, unable to contain joyful laughter: "Ho hahaha..."
The shadow on the ground picked up a lump of mud, threw it at Li Banfeng's face, abruptly cutting off the laughter.
Upon looking down, the shadow was half-submerged in the swamp, struggling terribly fighting Hua Manchun.
It was truly challenging for the shadow, Li Banfeng dove down, used the sickle to hook Hua Manchun's chin: "Heard you have a certain hook, especially useful for your servants, is this the way?"
Hua Manchun's mouth was full of blood, still wanting to fight Li Banfeng desperately, Li Banfeng withdrew the sickle from his chin, hooking it onto his cheek: "Is this the way?"
