Volume 2: Future Interlude Chapter 7: Petting the Big Cat~Oh wow~
"Come again!" Wang Erya screamed, and fell to the ground with all fours, his black and yellow tail swaying behind him. He raised his head and stared at Lu Bai with a pair of tiger eyes, howling excitedly.
Then he rushed towards Lu Bai like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.
The claws that popped out reflected light, and even the air was cut, making a hissing sound.
"Come on!" On the other side of the training ground, Lu Bai let out a breath, and the internal force in his body also flowed along with it, blessing his body.
As he built up a complete internal strength, Lu Bai also got rid of his previous status of a half-baked internal strength warrior.
He can now produce internal energy freely and then mobilize this internal energy.
Based on Linhaixian's [Human] module.
Paired with modules such as [intention], [action], [luck], [prosperity], [withering], [flowers], [wood], [nutrients], [transformation], and [return].
Using the [True Scripture of Withering and Flourishing] as a template, he constructed the inner strength skills.
It was only at this moment that Lu Bai realized that truly possessing internal force was completely different from the internal force obtained by using the energy module [Internal Force].
Generally speaking, although internal force is called internal force, sometimes it points in different directions.
For example, sometimes during a battle, when a warrior says that he does not have enough internal energy, what he is referring to here is "mana".
When a warrior says that he has practiced hard for so many years and has so much internal strength, he is referring to the "mana limit".
Both of these are internal forces, but their essences are different.
One can be restored at any time through practicing qigong or meditating, while the other requires hard work to grow slowly.
At this moment, Lu Bai felt that when he practiced his skills, the Qi and blood in his body were drawn and flowed into the Dantian meridian system in his body and began to circulate. A part of it became the former, and the other part became the latter.
If the Dantian is regarded as a big pot, then the internal force of the latter is the old soup.
Those century-old soups in restaurants may be gimmicks or false publicity, but these martial arts masters are actually senior chefs who own real century-old soups.
This old soup cannot be used easily, otherwise it may damage the foundation.
At this time, he had a foundation, and Lu Bai could relatively flexibly control the internal force to flow through the meridians paved by the [Human] module in his body.
Then this internal force can naturally flow into other skills in the skill bar and activate these skills.
[Battle Mode 1 Iron Shirt]
The internal force filled Lu Bai's body, then overflowed from the acupoints all over his body, forming a protective layer like clothing.
By filling some modules of the bandit leader's Iron Shirt into his skills and forming the current rich fighting mode, Lu Bai simply called it Iron Shirt.
Before this, Lu Bai had always been a mortal body, and his physical defense could not even be called defensive power, it could only be called the ability to withstand blows.
Lu Bai's ability to withstand blows is about the same as that of a trained person. At most, his health bar is longer, and if he is not fatally injured, he can last longer.
But that's all.
If he is stabbed with a knife, he will bleed and be seriously injured.
And now, he has officially changed his job from a low-level pure-blooded warrior to a melee-type magic tank.
Hu Niu's sharp claws were blocked by the iron shirt in front of Lu Bai.
Then more internal energy was spurted out from the acupoints to fill the damaged defenses.
Lu Bai's body shook, and Hu Niu was stimulated by his internal force.
As Lu Bai had expected, his blood and qi, which had reached the level of blood and qi wolf smoke, were used to transform internal strength, and both the quality and quantity were extremely superior.
Otherwise, if it were someone else, their internal strength, which they had just practiced for a few days, would collide with Hu Niu's claws, and they would be the only ones who would get hurt.
Although Lu Bai's internal strength is still immature, his potential is now obvious.
A steady stream of internal energy is injected into the iron shirt, forming a powerful protection.
Even if Lu Bai was attacked without paying attention, he had enough time to react, and his fault tolerance was greatly improved.
At the same time, Lu Bai's attack power has also been improved to a certain extent, and the addition of internal force to strength is quite good.
Besides, apart from "spitting", "throwing lime" and "throwing flying needles", all Lu Bai's previous attacks were short-handed ones.
Now that I have internal strength, I can finally perform some decent medium-range attacks.
Looking at Hu Niu who retreated a little distance, Lu Bai swung his palm and then slapped out.
The internal force condensed into a palm print and rushed directly towards Hu Niu.
However, Hu Niu didn't care about the palm print. She flicked her tail behind her and directly dispersed it.
"Not bad." Hu Niu's fur softened, and she exited the combat mode. She commented, "It's just that you're not proficient enough in the use of your internal energy."
After constructing the skills of martial arts, he had basic control over his internal force. The skills such as "internal force protection" that Lu Bai had constructed before became additional tricks.
"Your internal strength is high enough to create a palm strike through the air, but it is too loose. Even an ordinary person with the ability to master the skill can easily break it up."
"I guess you're only at an average level in this kind of fine manipulation."
Hu Niu gave an objective evaluation, and Lu Bai did not deny this evaluation.
He was not suitable for such fancy moves as telekinesis.
If he really wanted to fight, he would definitely concentrate all his internal energy in his palms, and then slap the opponent with his palms at close range.
The reason why I want to try this kind of trick is mainly because I want to try it out.
Palm power from a distance...
Lu Bai smiled, came to Hu Niu, and put his hand on the little meat ball in Hu Niu's hand.
Before Hu Niu could react, Lu Bai transferred a large amount of internal energy to her.
As soon as this internal force was input, the slight tiredness that Hu Niu had felt after the previous battle quickly disappeared, and she felt relaxed all over.
"What are you doing?" Hu Niu was puzzled. This level of effect could not be achieved by simply transmitting internal energy.
"Practice!" Lu Bai felt that the old soup that had accumulated in his body for several days quickly disappeared.
At the same time, he moved closer to Hu Niu and sniffed, but didn't get anything except a strange smell.
"So it really still requires someone who is sick?" Lu Bai thought.
In the end, Lu Bai still took the path of entering life from death.
The main reason is that the method of going from death to rebirth is very fast.
And by combining with some modules, you can also perform some cool operations.
On the contrary, the cycle from birth to death is too long.
You need to find a symbiotic plant and take care of it from the seed or dead wood state until it dies.
The shortest one or two years may take a long time, and the longest may take decades.
The longer you walk this path, the more stable your practice will be.
But does this playboy Lu Bai need stability?
For various reasons, he had to take the fast lane.
"Is that so? Then give me more!" Everyone's skills are everyone's secret. Hu Niu did not ask in detail, but twisted her body and wagged her tail.
Lu Bai nodded, and taking this opportunity, he put his other hand on the back of Hu Niu's head and began to stroke the big cat.
