Volume 5: Return to Donghua Chapter 8: Stage 3
In a flash, Qi Ji's mind was calculating at high speed.
Currently, only the third-order extraordinary skill "Flow" can enable him to have a higher level of stable effect of enhancing physical strength.
According to Qi Ji's self-assessment, his mental strength should be able to achieve the third-order "flow" state, but now he still cannot do it. What is the reason?
He fought calmly with the Ghost-Faced Gentleman at high speed, and even though he was repeatedly repelled by the opponent's fierce attacks, he remained as steady as a rock.
During the high-speed attack, the depths of his dazed eyes flashed with the light of wisdom.
The cost of using blood magic is to burn a large amount of blood. He knew from instinct that the blood consumption was as high as one third.
The cost is too high. Once used, the body will inevitably become weak due to the lack of blood, which will affect other more difficult battles that may follow.
This method can only be used as a last resort and should not be used as a priority.
He quickly made a decision, which was to create an opportunity to try out the third-order extraordinary "flow" technique.
If successful, it will naturally lay the foundation for victory.
If he fails, he will immediately use blood magic to force this cunning ghost-faced gentleman to fight back with his strongest burst.
The decision was immediately executed by him.
The next moment, he used a "Fa" to hit the sword of the Ghost-Faced Gentleman heavily, and threw him into the air.
Then, taking advantage of the brief period when the Ghost-Faced Gentleman was in the air and unable to gain leverage and quickly rush back, he suddenly ignited the extraordinary factors in his body!
This time, in an absolutely rational state of mind, he fully analyzed the reasons why his "flow" had not been successful, and vaguely had a highly feasible route to try in his mind.
Is it possible that it is difficult to control because of the excessive explosive power?
Therefore, he took the initiative to reduce the amplitude of the extraordinary factor explosion, and the three-fold increase was reduced to two times this time.
I didn’t expect the effect to be so significant!
The extraordinary factor, which could only be controlled for a moment due to its overly violent power, became able to be continuously controlled after reducing the amplitude of the explosion!
Qi Ji's heart was as calm as still water as he recalled the description of the third-order "Magic Torrent" technique in the secret book "Sword of Flowing Water" that he had obtained from the Witch Club before.
Use your mental power to activate the "Qi" in your body, treat these "Qi" as water, and then push and guide them to flow throughout your body...
Thus, the extraordinary factor in Qi Ji's body, driven by his mental power, slowly began to flow in his body like a stream.
It started as a trickle, but soon it turned into a rushing river!
At this moment, he immediately felt the difference.
It is no longer a certain part, nor is it a fixed posture , nor can it only be maintained for a very short time.
Although it is not as powerful as a one-time burst, it is supported by the extraordinary factors running rapidly in the body.
His body strength was maintained at a state where he could continuously exert more than 75 tons of force.
This state symbolizes that the extraordinary person has reached the third level - a state called "flow"!
Success at the first try!
At this critical moment, he successfully used the third-level extraordinary skills.
Yes, the principle is actually that simple - if you want to maintain the stability of the extraordinary factor, you must first start by reducing its explosive power.
After the body and mind have become familiar with the high-speed operation of the extraordinary factor, you can then slowly restore the explosive power of the extraordinary factor.
It’s just that Qi Ji has been figuring things out on his own all along, without a good master to tell him the trick.
On the other side, the Ghost-faced Gentleman who was thrown away by Qi Ji swung his left hand violently, and shot at Qi Ji with the chain blade before he flew far away. After the collision, he entangled Qi Ji's single sword, and rushed back again with wild laughter during the struggle .
He laughed wildly and said, "Boy, I've seen through you. This time, I'll send you on your way!"
That’s right, after several rounds of confrontation, the Ghost-Faced Gentleman has discovered the interval between Qi Ji’s outbursts and plans to put an end to Qi Ji in this round.
Boy, your burst can only hit once in a very short period of time. Although this interval is extremely short, it is too obvious in the eyes of us fourth-level strongmen!
Die!
With his left hand, he held the chain blade tightly to hold Qi Ji's single sword, and with his right hand, he stabbed the long sword rapidly towards Qi Ji's chest!
Qi Ji's weapon was restrained, but he did not panic at all. He suddenly let go of his sword and allowed the enemy to disarm him.
He quickly jumped back and avoided the fatal attack from the Ghost-Faced Gentleman.
The Ghost-faced Gentleman swung the chain blade and threw Qi Ji's single sword far behind him. Turning back, he saw Qi Ji holding a six-foot-long blade in his hand. He couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Boy, what kind of trick is this?"
Qi Ji said nothing, his face was calm and his eyes were blank.
As his breathing changed, a strange phenomenon like flowing water seemed to emanate from around his body.
Holding the Immortal Slash in both hands, his posture was a bit like the lower part of Sakura Kendo, with the tip of the blade hanging low, as if touching the calm water surface.
"What a mysterious guy!"
When the Ghost-Faced Gentleman saw Qi Ji standing there quietly, he shouted and rushed forward at high speed.
The next second, he used both hands, and the chain blade in his left hand and the long sword in his right hand slashed towards Qi Ji at the same time.
Dual sword flow!
The two weapons, one long and one short, instantly turned into a torrential rain in the hands of the Ghost-Faced Gentleman, completely enveloping Qi Ji.
Ding ding ding ding!
The dense sound of metal collisions rang out continuously.
With Qi Ji as the center, a spherical area seemed to have formed within the range that his blade could reach.
The Ghost-Faced Gentleman's determined attack would be intercepted by Qi Ji's strike the moment it approached this spherical area!
If a normal person with ordinary eyesight could watch the duel between the two, he would see that Qi Ji seemed to be holding the blade in front of him, motionless, but the agile Ghost-faced Gentleman launched a crazy attack on Qi Ji, but all of them were inexplicably bounced away the moment they entered this spherical field.
With a mind as clear as a mirror and still water, he could accurately perceive everything that entered his sword circle.
Then, he chopped at an incredibly smooth speed, cutting through everything that came into contact with the area.
Water Breathing·Form 11·Nagi!
The Ghost-Faced Gentleman was shocked to find that Qi Ji, who had been disrupted by his moves just now, was able to stand firmly in place this time and block all of his fierce attacks.
"What on earth is this kid up to!"
He continued to attack frantically with both hands, but became more and more frightened.
His feeling was definitely correct. The swordsman in front of him had unknowingly increased his strength to a level that was equal to or even surpassed his own!
This person can actually grow and break through in battle!
The face of the Ghost-Faced Gentleman under the mask was ferocious and fearful. He suddenly took two steps back, ready to attack. The already gorgeous "Qi Armor" on his body became even more solid, almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
Not only that, he used his black and purple left arm as a source of power, and a huge amount of "Qi" quickly gathered on his body.
The terrifying purple air also enveloped him completely.
In order to stifle Qi Ji's strength growth, the Ghost-Faced Gentleman is ready to use his strongest burst attack!
