Volume 1: This is a world that speaks with weapons Chapter 55: Special Sword Technique
The red-haired Rurouni slashed out like a net at a speed much faster than Luolang's explosive state.
This knife technique!
Qi Ji was horrified and raised his knife to block.
In the past few days, through one-on-two sparring and fighting against the swift Luo Lang, he has obviously greatly improved his reaction ability.
But it was once again broken by the Red-haired Rurouni's incredibly fast move.
Although a person cannot swing out two swords at the same time, when a person's sword-drawing and sword-retracting speed is nearly twice that of his opponent... for the opponent being slashed by his sword, is it equivalent to facing a person who can swing the sword twice at once?
This is the situation now.
If Red Hair | Rurouni's speed is 20% higher than Qi Ji's, then Luo Lang's speed in burst state is 40% higher than Qi Ji's.
The red-haired ronin who used specific moves had an attack speed that was more than 70% faster than Qi Ji!
Ding ding ding ding!
In just two seconds, after barely blocking four attacks, Qi Ji was no longer able to completely block the following attacks and was instantly chopped into a bloody man.
The next moment, the red-haired ronin's super-fast attack came to the last move, and the frontal slash symbolizing death quickly came to Qi Ji's face.
This scene was exactly the same as when he first met Luo Lang!
Actually there is a difference.
In a
It was as if a shackle in my mind was suddenly blown apart!
The method of nourishing the meridians is fierce!
The red-haired ronin was about to end Qi Ji's life with a single blow, but he suddenly saw a blur and Qi Ji was standing three meters away in an instant.
Qi Ji carefully felt the violent pulsation of his body.
His heart was beating rapidly, pumping blood like a flood.
A large amount of adrenaline or some random biological hormone in the body spreads rapidly throughout the body.
It was as if all the nerves in the body had expanded, and the accuracy and response speed of any movement were raised to the limit.
The mind enters a highly excited state in an instant, but the thinking is very calm and extremely sensitive.
All moving objects in the field of vision seem to be slowed down!
This feeling...
So refreshing...
Qi Ji couldn't help but reveal a wild smile at the corner of his mouth. He tilted his head, tapped his feet lightly, and in an instant crossed a distance of three meters and returned to the red-haired ronin.
This is a speed even faster than Luo Lang’s after his explosion!
Slash, slash, chop, sweep, cut, stab... Qi Ji unleashed a torrential rain of continuous slashes in a short period of time.
A look of shock flashed across the red-haired ronin's handsome face.
But he did not panic. Instead, he used the multiple-slash move called Dragon's Nest Flash again and swung his sword to meet the attack.
This time, Qi Ji's speed was not much slower than the opponent's swift slashing attack, and the two sides attacked each other more than ten times in an instant.
The deafening sound of blades clashing echoed throughout the alley. The surrounding houses that had originally had dim lights on all turned off their lights, leaving only the bright moonlight, illuminating the increasingly dark alley in a pale light.
Qi Ji was immersed in the explosive state brought about by the secret technique, excitedly maintaining the fierce confrontation with the red-haired ronin.
Even though the wounds all over his body were gushing blood, he was completely unaware.
The red-haired ronin's seemingly random high-speed multiple slashes seemed to be some kind of fixed pattern. As long as he maintained a certain sword path, he could exert tremendous power and a speed that was even faster than Qi Ji.
Unfortunately, a fixed pattern is a fixed pattern and ultimately lacks flexibility. In a high-speed sword fight, the more flexible Qi Ji can almost completely defend against the opponent's attacks, while the opponent is unable to change his moves to resist Qi Ji's attacks.
Qi Ji quickly discovered this characteristic, and thus calmly looked for flaws in his opponent's moves during the clash of blades.
Block, block, block—counterattack!
Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!
This cycle was repeated several times within a few seconds, and the red-haired ronin's body was immediately cut with several bone-piercing wounds.
Victory is at hand!
Qi Ji was about to try harder, but suddenly he felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and a feeling of weakness from the root suddenly surged up.
What's going on?
Before Qi Ji could figure out the reason, his body could no longer support him, his legs went weak, and he fell to one knee on the ground.
The Red Drifter shows no mercy for his weakness.
Instead, he decisively slit Qi Ji's throat with one knife!
Before his consciousness faded, Qi Ji saw that the ground beneath his feet was already covered with a large pool of blood.
Only then did he understand the cause of his death.
Spirituality 90/100
…
Early in the morning, Qi Ji opened his eyes and sat up silently, feeling very bad.
He was not angry about losing to the red-haired ronin. He had died in the tower many times, and losing to such a strong man was not something unacceptable.
Moreover, he could clearly feel that now that he was at full power, he was fully capable of matching the opponent's strength. After a few more fights and becoming familiar with the opponent's sword moves, he was confident that he could successfully kill him.
In such a confident mental state, the pressure on him was far less than when he faced Luo Lang.
Just be careful not to use the burst secret method of Yangmai Fa when you have wounds all over your body next time...
Thinking of this, Qi Ji smiled bitterly and couldn't help but scold himself for being brave but not wise.
Since it was his first time using it, he did not pay attention to the various mechanisms of action of the explosive secret method of the Yangmai Method.
Naturally, I didn't expect that the secret method actually includes the effect of speeding up blood circulation to enhance athletic ability.
If there are too many wounds on the body and bleeding when using this secret method, the blood with accelerated circulation will dry up even faster.
This is tantamount to seeking death.
After reviewing the cause of death, let’s return to the topic of his worsening mood.
The real reason why he felt uncomfortable was that he confirmed a fact again.
That is the fact that once dies in the Tower of Transcendence, ten points of spirituality will be deducted.
So, the setting in the first two levels where only a little spirituality is deducted after each death is just a benefit that the Tower of Transcendence gives to novices?
Is the novice protection period over now?
Forget it, there’s no point in thinking too much.
After adjusting his mood, Qi Ji got out of bed, washed up, and then reviewed his battle with the red-haired ronin.
First of all, it is the comparison of strength. This is very obvious. With the blessing of transcendence, Qi Ji is stronger. He can chop down the red-haired ronin with one sword in a fight.
Then there is the speed comparison. This is also obvious. The Red-haired Rurouni is faster. Under normal circumstances, the Red-haired Rurouni is 10% to 20% faster than Qi Ji.
Finally, it was a comparison of skills. Qi Ji had to admit that the Red-haired Rurouni's swordsmanship was obviously more sophisticated than his, and this sophistication was obviously based on a specific school of skills, and was a killing swordsmanship that was honed through the sacrifice of countless lives.
Not only that, Red-haired Rurouni's swordsmanship even has more magical moves that are like special moves.
For example, his move of spinning to dodge the samurai's attack and then counterattacking to kill him.
For example, the move he used at the beginning and end of the fight with Qi Ji was a super-fast move that allowed him to perform multiple slashes in an instant.
When using this specific move, the Red-haired Rurouni's sword speed and strength increased significantly. His strength was comparable to Qi Ji's, and his speed was even 10% faster than Qi Ji who used the meridian nourishing method.
However, these moves seem to have a weakness, that is, they can only be used according to fixed patterns and are difficult to adapt.
For example, the move that the red-haired Rurouni called "Ryuuso-Sen " is an ultra-high-speed multiple-slash technique, but he used it twice, and the order and trajectory of the moves were the same.
This should be a key point worth remembering.
