Chapter 342 Escape

"What? How is that possible?"

Looking at Qingming walking out of the ice prison leisurely, Xuefeng's face was full of disbelief.

It's not that he didn't believe Qingming could break his 'Ice Escape·Ice Prison Technique'. As early as when he felt the power of the 'Wind Escape·Spiral Shuriken' performed by Qingming, he guessed that the ice prison he condensed might not be able to trap the opponent.

But he didn't expect Qingming to leave so easily.

Da Da Da~
Qingming stepped on the ice powder on the ground, walked out of the ice prison area, and then turned his gaze to Xuefeng.

I have to say that the opponent was really smart. He knew that he could not be his opponent in close combat, so from the beginning he did not think about fighting him in close combat, but chose large-scale attacks and long-range strikes.

Whether it was the blizzard and ice dragon in front, or the ice spikes and ice prisons that followed, or the 'Water Style: Mist Hidden Technique' used to confuse him in the middle.

All these reflect the opponent's attempt to defeat him through non-contact combat.

Unfortunately, although the idea was good, it underestimated his strength.

Even though he was later trapped by the 'Ice Escape: Ice Prison Technique', there were actually several ways to escape.

Not to mention the Mangekyō Sharingan's eye technique 'Heavenly Guardian', using it can definitely make it easy to escape from the ice crystal cage.

In addition to this trump card, techniques like 'Rasengan', 'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique', and 'Wind Style: Wind Blade' all have a certain chance of being accomplished.

Even though these methods seemed to be useless when he tried them just now, it was just because he didn't want to be trapped for too long.

If the stalemate continues, the opponent may not be able to outlast him.

After all, the biggest function of 'Ice Escape: Ice Prison Technique' is to trap the enemy, not to kill him. Killing the enemy mainly depends on the continuously decreasing temperature and the cage gradually filled with solid ice.

And with his current 16-point physical condition, it is enough to sustain for a long time.

During this period, he can use huge chakra to continuously perform Fire Style Ninjutsu and a series of other Ninjutsu to attack the ice wall.

These ice walls seem to be able to be repaired infinitely, but in fact they all need chakra to support them.

In this way, in the final evolution, it will become a confrontation of chakras.

Qingming was 100% sure that the opponent's chakra was definitely not as much as his, so he would definitely not be able to outlast him.

Even more, if the opponent's chakra control is not strong enough and the chakra that can be output per unit time is limited, the speed at which the opponent repairs the ice wall may not be able to keep up with his speed of destruction.

This way, he can come out early.

In short, he had many means at his disposal, which was far from what the other party imagined, and he was at his wit's end.

As for the opponent, after this series of continuous attacks, I'm afraid there is no effective means to restrict him.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, a faint green light appeared on Qingming's body, and wind chakra dissipated, merging him and the long sword in his hand into one.

Seeing this familiar scene, Xuefeng immediately thought of the scene where Qingming dodged the ice dragon's attack not long ago, and his expression changed slightly.

Then he dodged and left the spot.

The next moment, Qing Ming's figure appeared, but he missed.

But this is not important. Qing Ming did not pause at all and used the "Instant Sword Technique" again, chasing after Xuefeng who was fleeing in a hurry.

After practicing for the past half month, his 'Instant Sword Technique' had already been upgraded to level 4, and his movement speed was much faster than before.

In the past, he could use this technique to catch some jonin off guard, let alone now.

Even though Xuefeng tried his best to dodge, he was only able to avoid it three times. On the fourth time, Qingming seized the opportunity.

huh~
Then a flash of knife light appeared.

Xuefeng raised the kunai in his hand and blocked Qingming's long sword that was cutting across his waist.

Hey~
There was a clear sound of metal collision.

The long sword in Qingming's hand separated from the opponent's kunai as soon as it touched, and then quickly changed the angle and slashed at the opponent's neck. Xuefeng reacted quickly and swung the kunai in his hand again to block the second attack.

Qingming remained expressionless and continued to attack, while Xuefeng continued to block.

During this time, Xuefeng didn't dare to even look at the long sword in his hand, and responded only based on his feeling and previous combat experience.

Obviously, the information about his "Illusion Sword Technique" has been leaked, otherwise the other party would not do this.

Qing Ming was not too surprised about this.

After all, after suffering such a huge loss last time, it is impossible that the Hidden Mist Village has not done any research on him.

There are many jonin of the Kirigakure who have fought with him and survived. As long as they submit the relevant information, the other jonin of the Kirigakure will be mentally prepared.

Then, respond according to your own situation.

Just like the snow wind in front of him, he chose not to look at it.

However, in this case, he can only defend.

However, such defense may be able to cope with the situation temporarily, but it is impossible to stop Qingming's continuous attack.

Qingming knew this, so he swung his sword tightly, not seeking to kill or injure the enemy, but just to prevent them from breathing.

Xuefeng also knew this, so after holding on for two or three minutes, he forced himself out of the battle at the cost of injuring his arm.

Seeing Xuefeng suddenly distance himself from him, Qingming didn't hesitate at all and immediately used the 'Instant Sword Technique' to catch up.

However, this time Xuefeng did not run away, but quickly formed seals, and finally used the "Ice Substitute" before the Qingming long sword was approaching.

Click~
A human-shaped ice sculpture was chopped into pieces by Qingming with one knife.

He did not linger, his eyes turned and locked onto Xuefeng's figure, then he flashed and chased after him again.

As if sensing Qingming's murderous intent behind him, Xuefeng gritted his teeth, formed a seal again, and his body instantly split into two, running to the left and right sides respectively.

Seeing this, Qing Ming was not polite either. He also used the "Shadow Clone Technique", creating a shadow clone and chasing after the man on the left.

He himself chased after Xuefeng on the right.

Why is it distributed like this?
It's simple, just go with your feeling.

Anyway, even with the Sharingan, he couldn't tell any difference between the two men, so he could only choose based on his feelings.

Unfortunately, his feeling doesn't seem to be very accurate.

One minute later.

Qingming looked at the broken ice cubes on the ground and shook his head.

When he just caught up with the opponent, he was a little excited because the opponent had endured several of his attacks without collapsing.

I never thought that it was actually an ice clone.

However, having said that, the shadow clone created by ice escape is indeed much stronger than ordinary shadow clones. At least in terms of resistance to blows, it is much stronger than ordinary shadow clones.

"pity."

Shaking his head gently, Qing Ming didn't think any more. He pushed off the sea with his feet and immediately ran to the front left.

At this moment, there, Xuefeng's real body was entangled with his shadow clone.

However, as soon as he moved, Xuefeng, who had received the memory of the ice clone, glanced over here and ran away without looking back.

Seeing this, the shadow clone immediately chased forward, and Qingming followed.

For a while, the two sides started chasing each other on the sea again.
