Volume 2 That World Chapter 30: Hope of Escape!
The lame swordsman's defense system was gradually disintegrated by Qi Ji, but Qi Ji took steady steps and never took any risks.
The closer we are to victory, the more vigilant we must be!
After experiencing the painful consequences of several previous failures, Qi Ji will not make the mistake of underestimating the enemy again.
Moreover, when he was in the state of subduing demons, his mind was as clear as the sky, as if he was possessed by a god or demon, and it was even less likely that he would be controlled by emotions.
His eyes were blank, but a little divine light was ignited deep in his pupils.
His opponent, the lame swordsman, was a little embarrassed by the approaching attack of Qi Ji, but his eyes also lit up with dazzling light.
A pale man, holding a pitch-black knife tightly in his hand.
A pair of shining eyes stared closely at Qi Ji's movements!
The distance now was enough for him to draw his sword and attack, but he held back and did not do so.
He simply mobilized all his "internal force", or "qi", or "supernatural factor", and swung his sheath again to block Qi Ji's attack.
That’s right, the final level of the evil level.
The character responsible for obstruction possesses extraordinary powers and is no longer an ordinary person who relies solely on his body to fight!
Clank, clank, clank, clank!
The swordsman's black scabbard and Qi Ji's sharp blade collided at high speed again. In this round of confrontation, both sides were stronger and faster, and the sound of the weapon collision was more intense.
Fifteen seconds have passed since the demon was subdued, and there are about twenty seconds left!
After twenty seconds, Qi Ji will lose his combat effectiveness due to the termination of the outbreak.
But Qi Ji did not move forward this time. He stayed at a distance of 1.5 meters. At this distance, he only needed to retreat one step to escape the opponent's extreme attack range.
Chop! Hit! Sweep! Stab! Chop!
Qi Ji gripped the hilt of the knife tightly with both hands. His attack movements were wild and disorderly, yet he maintained his core stability in the disorder!
Each of his attacks shattered his opponent's posture, like a vulture pecking at a dying wolf.
The lame swordsman tried his best to block and dodge, but his posture became more and more crooked and his figure became more and more awkward.
However, the more embarrassed he was, the brighter his eyes became!
Both sides are waiting for "that moment" to come!
Another ten seconds have passed in subduing the demon, and there are only ten seconds left!
Under Qi Ji's continuous and endless high-speed killing, the lame swordsman was almost at the end of his rope and had lost all his strength.
But even in a precarious situation, he was still able to complete awkward blocks and dodges within his limits.
However, human power is limited, and at this moment, he has reached a desperate situation!
After Qi Ji chopped three times in a row, he suddenly stabbed and attacked, and suddenly broke the lame swordsman 's block!
At this moment, the lame swordsman's goal was wide open!
At this moment, Qi Ji suddenly retracted his weapon and used the new starting stance of the Wuming Sword that was similar to the Ox stance!
This moment is "the opportunity" that both of them have been waiting for!
At this critical moment of life and death, the lame swordsman suddenly took a step forward!
The next moment, his right hand tightly grasped the hilt of the knife!
boom!
While deliberately feeling his own instincts while subduing demons, Qi Ji suddenly felt an infinite sense of horror surging through his body!
"Here we go!"
He retreated quickly!
bass!
Just as he retreated to the second step, a flash of knife light appeared!
All movements froze, and everything in the world seemed to pause for a moment!
Then, in the slow-motion perspective of the demon-subduing state, Qi Ji saw with his own eyes the knife light quickly slashing across his chest, penetrating an inch into the flesh, and then being sheathed by the opponent in an instant!
Bang!
The next second, his collar was torn, and a huge gap was instantly cut open on his chest from bottom to top!
Then, blood spurted out wildly.
'I couldn't escape after all.'
Qi Ji looked down at the fatal wound on his chest.
Sighed silently.
Consciousness then fell into darkness.
【Spirituality 80/100】
…
When I opened my eyes, it was already the next morning.
Qi Ji expressionlessly gathered himself together, got up, washed, and then sat upright on the bed to practice the meridian nourishing method.
Three minutes later, he scratched his hair fiercely.
“Aaaaaah! I tried my best but still lost!”
Dark, twisted, crawling, and crazy!
I don't want to play anymore! I want to go home to my mom!
After venting, Qi Ji officially calmed down and began to reflect while practicing the meridian nourishing method.
Theoretically speaking, now that he has activated the demon-conquering ability, he will basically not make mistakes in battle.
The accuracy of his moves, his control of distance, and his battle strategies should basically be within the scope of what he could think of. He was not affected by his own emotions and did his best.
If there is anything he has not done, it is because he is limited by his own experience and knowledge. After all, the demon-subduing state only allows him to not be affected by emotions, but it will not allow him to gain wisdom out of thin air.
In this state where he could almost make no mistakes, he still failed to dodge the lame swordsman's sword-drawing move. There were only two obvious reasons for this.
One is that the opponent's knife was too fast and he had no ability to resist at all.
Second, his instinctive response was not fast enough, and he was unable to dodge in time.
Then work on these two points, either slowing down the opponent's sword-swinging speed, or improving your own instinctive response speed.
As for slowing down the opponent's speed in drawing and swinging the sword, I don't have any special abilities, so I can't think of any way for now.
Then you can only improve your instinctive response speed, which can be improved through more practice.
Qi Ji made up his mind to seize the opportunity of special training given to him by Yu Chengen every afternoon and practice more actual combat exercises.
In addition to Yu Chengen, he can also ask Su Jingqiu for more advice. After all, Su Jingqiu came from the eighth level, and Jiange itself must have methods to develop instincts!
It can't be that every seventh-level person who wants to advance to the eighth level needs a transcendent in the Sword Pavilion to practice with him. Where would the transcendents have the time for that?
After thinking it over, Qi Ji ended his reflection and began to practice the meridian nourishing method seriously and with all his strength.
About two hours later, Qi Ji seemed to have sensed something and looked towards the door of his guest room.
Boom boom boom.
"Is Qi Ji up?" A crisp voice sounded, it was Qin Zijin.
Agreeing with his mouth, he walked quickly over, opened the door, and saw the beautiful Jiange again today.
"Good morning, Qi Ji~" After saying hello, Qin Zijin walked .
"Morning." He also replied softly: "What time is it now?"
In addition to the inconvenience of going to the toilet , another disadvantage of the Outland is that there is no portable clock to check the time.
Qin Zijin smiled slightly: "I just asked the store owner, and now the time is almost equivalent to seven o'clock in the morning in the inner domain."
"Let's go, shall we? Have breakfast?" Qi Ji said and was about to leave.
"No hurry." Qin Zijin pushed him onto the stool in the room, "Let me fix your hair first. A messy hairstyle will seriously affect your appearance."
Qi Ji immediately sat down obediently. Eating breakfast is important, but appearance is more important!
Feeling the tingling sensation of Qin Zijin's small hands moving his hair, he remembered something and immediately asked, "Yesterday I heard from Senior Sister that the level of transcendence was not finished before the special training began. It was really uncomfortable to finish a sentence halfway through. Do you know the realm behind it?"
Qin Zijin slowly tied Qi Ji's hair, then smiled and said, "Of course I know."
"Report it quickly!" Qi Ji said immediately.
Qin Zijin did not keep the secret, and after organizing his words a little, he said: "Jingqiu talked about the first three stages yesterday, but it was not very detailed."
"First, there is the first three stages, the 'Jufa Flow'. From the moment one enters the Transcendent Realm, the foundations of the major forces begin to emerge. They all have their own complete set of cultivation methods corresponding to the several Transcendent Realms. For example, our Sword Pavilion has the 'Sword Pavilion Secret Code' that I mentioned to you a long time ago."
Qi Ji laughed and said, "There really is a Sword Pavilion Secret Book. I thought you were joking and trying to fool me."
Qin Zijin patted the back of his head with a smile: "How could I fool you? Ever since I first saw you take action, I knew you would definitely achieve transcendence. The Sword Pavilion Secret Book I told you at that time was something I wanted to give you after you achieved transcendence."
Qi Ji turned around and raised an eyebrow at Qin Zijin, motioning for the girl to continue speaking.
She kept moving her hands and quickly tied Qi Ji's hair into a short ponytail: "I'll give you the secret book later. Let's talk about the practice method first."
"Using the unique cultivation methods of various factions to face 'Qi' can not only save a lot of time in exploring the extraordinary path, but also obtain various magical effects. For example, taking the Divine Sword Building as an example, they have three foundations for establishing their faction. The first is the 'Divine Sword Jue' which can greatly speed up the absorption of Qi and the speed of body transformation, and the two sword techniques 'Scorching Blade' and 'Absolute Shadow'."
Qin Zijin took a deep breath and said, "These two sword techniques are not only unrivaled in the mortal realm, but also truly magical when combined with their own secret techniques that can only be activated by using 'Qi' after entering the realm of transcendence."
"Secret move..." Qi Ji pondered for a moment after hearing these two words, "Is it similar to the special effect of the sword technique 'Tide' in Jiange?"
Qin Zijin smiled and said, "Although the Tide Sword can temporarily stimulate the user's physical fitness when in the Transcendent stage, it is amazing, but this is not a Transcendent level effect. As one of the cornerstones of the Sword Pavilion, it also has various secret moves that can only be used in the Transcendent stage."
"You see, it's very clear now. Whether it's the Divine Sword Building or the Sword Pavilion, they all have a complete set of cultivation methods for those who have become extraordinary. Therefore, extraordinary people from big forces are often much better at fighting than wild extraordinary people. Not to mention that in addition to the secret manuals of martial arts, big forces can also provide their disciples with various cultivation resources to prevent them from being troubled by food, drink, defecation, and daily expenses."
Qi Ji nodded, and then his scalp tightened as Qin Zijin deliberately pulled his short ponytail. He stared at Qin Zijin speechlessly and asked, "You've been talking for so long, but you still haven't told me what the next level of transcendence is."
Qin Zijin has now fixed Qi Ji's hairstyle. She came to the other side of the table and looked at Qi Ji with sparkling eyes.
She smiled and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Aren't you going to tell me now?"
Qi Ji said that this girl is really good at keeping people in suspense!
