“Can this really be done?”
To use each killing move of Canglongliu, one needs precise coordination of the whole body and mobilization of special strength.
For example, the tornado thunder, although the main part used is the 'muscles', in order to force the muscles to form that kind of spiral compression, the cooperation of blood, bones, tendons, and even skin is also indispensable.
Among the five killer moves, only the Eye Flow is a little special, which only requires the mobilization of tendons... But even so, when mobilizing the tendons to use the Eye Flow, other killer moves that also require the coordination of tendons cannot be used.
"Unless you can make every part of your body move completely on its own..."
"The Wind and Thunder only uses muscles, the Shaking Star Fire only uses blood, the Sealing Cloud Tail only uses bones, the Turning Golden Scales only uses skin, the Eye Stream only uses tendons... Now it seems that only the Eye Stream can do it."
Xue Jing clenched his palms.
If it was just about getting a single body part to move on its own, he could actually do it now.
[Hidden Dragon Power]allowed his power to transform into a real dragon, almost with self-awareness. Coupled with [Visualization·Truth]which allowed his spirit to undergo a sublimation and transformation, his control over his power reached the realm of "Power reaching all four extremities".
The so-called four extremities refer to fingers, tongue, teeth and hair.
These are actually four small realms, the first one is 'force penetrates fingertips, killing people with a snap of fingers'.
However, Xue Jing has now learned the most difficult 'Strength at the Hair Tips', which allows him to control his nerve-free hair with force, just like controlling his hands and feet.
With his level of strength control, he is able to control a certain part of the body and let it move on its own without interfering with other parts.
But, that’s all.
Just like a newborn baby, being able to move its feet doesn’t mean it can walk.
Making the muscles form a spiral compression shape like the tornado thunder... For Xue Jing now, the difficulty is like asking a person who has just learned addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to do function problems.
"Don't even think about combining five kills into one right now. It's simply impossible to do it."
Xue Jing pondered.
"However, we can try to combine the two moves into one..."
"For example - let the explosive power of the Wind Thunder and the penetrating power of the Shaking Star Fire combine into one, and explode directly into the enemy's body."
"But this is too difficult. One move is the ultimate in hardness, and the other is the ultimate in softness."
How can these two be combined? Xue Jing felt his scalp tingling just thinking about it.
"However, Feng Yunwei's power does not conflict much with the Wind-Rolling Thunder and the Shaking Star Fire, so you can give it a try."
"But let's start with the simplest one."
Xue Jing's mind moved, and his pupils turned into vertical dragon eyes.
Without using the Heavenly Sword state of mind, the color of the pupils at this time was not silver-white, but changed from dark brown to dark gold.
After activating the Eye Flow, Xue Jing looked at his senior brother in front of him.
Unlike before when he looked at the Seabee and saw many 'lines' and 'dots', he looked at Meng Boshang with his eyes, and saw nothing on his body.
The so-called lines and points are the embodiment of flaws, weaknesses and the like.
At this moment, the eldest senior brother Meng Boshang stood there with his hands behind his back, looking calm. In Mu Guanliu's field of vision, he could not see even a trace of flaw or weakness.
“… As expected of you, you are the senior brother.”
Xue Jing shifted his gaze and looked down at the deck beneath his feet.
Concentrating on one of the rectangular wooden boards, several lines suddenly appeared on it.
Xue Jing gathered some sharp force with his right big toe and drew it along one of the lines.
The wooden board was easily cut, and looking at the cut area, one could see that the scratch was made completely along the grain of the board, and it was the easiest place to cut on the entire board.
"Big Brother is not available for the moment, please get someone else."
Meng Boshan's figure turned into pixels and disappeared, and was replaced by the man named Wei Chu from the Giant God Brigade.
A sturdy figure appeared, and Xue Jing stared at him. Although there were few, he saw a few "lines" on various parts of his body. There were very few "dots", only a few "dots" on the chest, neck, and head that were so dim that they were almost invisible.
This type of cyborg, whose entire body is filled with alien plants, has very few weaknesses.
"Keep your eyes focused and use other killer moves..."
Xue Jing took a deep breath and calmed down.
The true dragon in the body manifested, the power surged, the blood boiled, and thousands of sparks splashed out.
Strands of soft power were generated as the power in the body was circulated, and were about to condense into the fist...
Xue Jing controlled it with difficulty, trying his best not to involve his tendons and meridians, but to keep them running smoothly.
But soon, the operation of the Shaking Star Fire instinctively involved some tendons, causing problems in the operation of the eye flow, and the pupils immediately returned to normal from vertical pupils.
Xue Jing felt a sharp pain in his forearm, and a small piece of it protruded from the skin, as if there was a small ball buried inside.
This is because there is an error in the circulation of strength, causing problems with the tendons in this area, causing them to become entangled together and form nodules.
“It’s hard… but not impossible.”
Xue Jing nodded, circulated his strength, and dissolved the knots in his tendons.
Then continue trying.
The second time, Xue Jing used his strength more aggressively, and a ball of blood burst out directly from his right shoulder. The boiling blood and tangled tendons were pressed together and exploded.
It was a serious injury, but since it was a consciousness simulation, Xue Jing didn't care. With a thought, he let his body recover and continued trying.
The third time, he was too focused on maintaining the Eye Flow, causing the Shaking Star Fire to run out of control. The boiling blood with a soft force invaded his whole body, causing severe internal bleeding.
The fourth time, when something had already gone wrong, he forcibly controlled the True Dragon's internal energy to continue the two killing moves, causing the energy in his tendons to flow into his eyeballs, rupturing his optic nerves and making him blind.
The fifth time…
Just like this, Xue Jing relied on the fact that this was a consciousness simulation and conducted various bold experiments without any scruples. While destroying his body, his control over the 'two kills in one' was also rapidly improving.
More than half an hour later.
Xue Jing opened his dragon eyes with vertical pupils, and the skin on his right arm was like boiling water, with countless small bags bulging out and shrinking back.
The blood in his body was boiling and burning, and although there were signs that it was out of control, he still kept it firmly under control.
After more than ten seconds, he finally fully utilized the power of Shaking Star Fire.
A powerful soft force was condensed on the tip of his right fist. In his clear vision, Xue Jing locked onto a dim "dot" on Wei Chu's chest.
"—Shake Starfire."
He swung his right fist, and there seemed to be some sparks on the tip of the fist, which cut through the air and blasted forward.
The fist made contact with Wei Chu's chest, and all the strength was accurately poured into that 'point'.
Wei Chu had a protective membrane that was extremely effective in shielding against martial artists' strength. It should have blocked the invasion of soft strength, but it failed to block it this time.
Although nearly half of the force was still blocked by the protective membrane, the other half successfully entered Wei Chu's body along that "point".
"Goo-Puff-"
After a burst of strange sounds, Wei Chu's chest suddenly swelled up like a balloon, and all kinds of strange rustling noises came from inside.
Then it deflated again.
Blood oozed out of his ears, eyes, nose, and mouth at the same time, and then he vomited with a "wow" sound.
He vomited out countless pieces of flesh and blood, and fell forward in a pool of blood on the ground, dying.
Xue Jing nodded.
"good."
Although I am still not very proficient and cannot apply it in actual combat, at least I have used it successfully.
Eyes penetrate the stream + shake the star fire.
Xue Jing stretched and felt a little tired.
He calculated the time and found that the consciousness simulation had been going on for more than half an hour.
"There's still some room left... It's been a high-intensity operation for more than half an hour."
At Lv4, [Visualization·Truth] will last for about half an hour, which will make him feel dry and dizzy.
After the upgrade, not only is the simulation more realistic, it also lasts longer.
Xue Jing continued to practice for a while. After about ten minutes, he felt the symptoms of mental dryness and exited the consciousness simulation.
After opening his eyes, he pressed his temples, relaxed for a while, and then opened the panel.
[… Hidden Dragon Strength Experience +339]
[… Visualization·True Experience Value +267]
After closing the panel and resting for a while, Xue Jing began today's daily practice of the Armor-shaking Technique and the Dragon-sleeping Technique.
During cultivation, time passes slowly.
…
The next day, around noon.
"… No, I will go meet my family first. I will contact you after I meet with my family."
"… Well, thank you for your help."
In the suite, Xue Jing was lying on the bed, talking on the phone with one hand and stroking the back of the cat lying on his chest with the other hand.
As he practiced martial arts for a long time, his body control ability improved, and his technique of petting a cat's fur also improved. At this time, his slender five fingers brushed across the cat's back, and the soft force instantly made her fur stand up and she meowed with pleasure.
"… That's it, we'll contact you then."
After a round of social exchanges, Xue Jing hung up the phone.
"Are you the agent of the Galaxy Club?" Maomao asked lazily, enjoying the stroking of his fur.
Xue Jing nodded and hummed.
The person on the other end of the phone was the exclusive agent arranged for him by Wu Youqing, who was responsible for all matters related to his upcoming competitions in Maple City.
"Director Chen said that we will be able to reach Fengcheng before dark today. When we get there, we will go to my sister for a meal and take a look around Fengcheng to see if there is anything fun to do."
Xue Jing talked about the next arrangements.
The cat yawned, its emerald pupils looked hazy, and it looked like it was about to fall asleep.
For some reason, she has become more and more sleepy recently.
Xue Jing smiled, and his hand stroking the hair became lighter, while with his other hand he picked up his phone and started to check the news.
[… The U19 Unlimited Elite Fighting Tournament Maple City Knockout Round is about to begin. The knockout round list will be announced tomorrow, and the draw ceremony will be held at the same time… Dark horse player Li Chengxuan said that there is no one who can fight… ]
[… At 9pm the day before yesterday, the Infinity Nova cruise ship was attacked by a swarm of sea bees, a creature from the borderland. Miraculously, no one died. The reason was because of a mysterious young man…]
[… The Sky Pirates are becoming more rampant. The Chief of the Sunny City Police Station, Shang Mingyang, the Chief of the Maple City Police Station, Xin Qingyun, the head of the Kant Security Company, Guan Yingzhi, and the head of the Black Tide Security Company, Ye Sian… jointly declared that they will definitely wipe out the Sky Pirates and restore a blue and clean sky to the Fifth Metropolitan Area.]
…
After casually browsing the news and watching some funny videos, Xue Jing put his phone aside.
Then he opened the panel and looked at the divine skill column.
[Possessing Divinity: 506]
The last time he came into contact with [A Hundred-foot Pole], he obtained more than 600 divinity points. He used 300 points on Shadow Flame, and had 368 points left.
In the following days, he would spend time every night, diligently extracting divinity from Ning Fengwan, from a few to ten points every day, plus the 82 points of divinity he accidentally gained from killing the Sea Bee Queen, finally.
The balance of divinity has reached five hundred points again.
Xue Jing was a little hesitant.
Should I save these 500 points and use them to upgrade the twins, or...
He looked towards Shadow Flame.
[Shadow Flame Lv3 (Divinity required for upgrade: 506/500)]
In terms of the current priority of using divinity, the twins are definitely ranked first.
The cooldown of the passive resurrection is reduced, and a twin active effect is added, which is a very good improvement at each level.
But Shadowflame... isn't bad either.
As he got more familiar with this skill, he found that it became more and more useful the more he used it.
