Chapter 119: Killing Move Combination, Shadow Flame Upgrade, Activated Shadow Beast (4K)
"The combination of the five killing moves is the 'finishing touch'... but the way to use the strength of each killing move is completely different..."
Xue Jing's eyes showed a thoughtful look.
"Can this really be done?"
To use each killing move of the Hidden Dragon Flow, you need to coordinate the whole body precisely and mobilize special strength.
For example, although the main part of the Wind Thunder is the 'muscles', in order to force the muscles to form that kind of spiral compression, the coordination of blood, bones, tendons, and even skin is also indispensable.
Among the five killing 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, you can't use other killing moves that also require the coordination of tendons.
"Unless you can make all parts of your body move completely on their own..."
"Wind and Thunder only uses muscles, Shaking Star Fire only uses blood, Sealing Cloud Tail only uses bones, Turning Golden Scales only uses skin, Eye Flow only uses tendons... Now it seems that only Eye Flow can do it."
Xue Jing clenched his palms.
If he just wanted to make a single part of his body move on its own, he could actually do it now.
【Hidden Dragon Strength】 made his strength become a real dragon, almost with self-awareness, and with 【Visualization·True】, his spirit was sublimated and transformed, and his control of strength reached the realm of "strength reaching the four tips".
The so-called four tips refer to fingers, tongue, teeth, and hair.
These are actually four small realms, the first of which is "strength penetrating fingertips, killing people with a flick of the finger".
But Xue Jing has now learned the most difficult "strength reaching hair tips", and can forcibly control nerveless hair with strength like controlling hands and feet.
With his level of strength control, he can control a certain part of the body and let it move without hindering other parts.
But that's all.
Just like a newborn baby, the ability to move its feet does not mean it can walk.
For Xue Jing now, the difficulty of letting muscles form a spiral compression shape like the tornado thunder... is like asking a person who has just learned addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to do function problems.
"Don't think about the five kills in one for now, it's impossible to do it."
Xue Jing pondered.
"However, we can try to see if we can combine two moves into one..."
"For example - let the explosive power of the tornado thunder and the penetration of the shaking star fire be combined, and explode directly in the enemy's body."
"But this is too difficult, one move is the ultimate hardness, and the other is the ultimate softness."
How to combine them? Xue Jing felt his scalp tingling just thinking about it.
"The power of Feng Yunwei doesn't conflict much with the Wind Thunder and the Shaking Star Fire, so you can try it."
"But let's start with the simplest one."
Xue Jing's mind moved, and his pupils turned into dragon eyes with vertical pupils.
Without using the Heavenly Sword Realm, the color of his pupils was not silver-white at this time, but changed from dark brown to dark gold.
After launching the Eye Flow, Xue Jing looked at the senior brother in front of him.
Unlike looking at the Sea Bee before and seeing many "lines" and "points", he looked at Meng Boshang with the Eye Flow, and didn't see anything on him.
The so-called lines and points are the embodiment of things like flaws and weaknesses.
At this moment, the senior brother Meng Boshang stood there with his hands behind his back, looking calm, but in the vision of the Eye Flow, he couldn't see even a trace of flaws and weaknesses.
"... Worthy of being the senior brother."
Xue Jing shifted his gaze and looked down at the deck under his feet.
Concentrating on one of the rectangular wooden boards, several lines suddenly appeared on it.
Xue Jing gathered some sharp strength with his right big toe and scratched it on one of the lines.
The wooden board was easily cut open. From the place where it was cut, it can be seen that the scratch was completely drawn along the grain of the wooden board, which is the easiest place to cut the whole board.
"Big Brother, it's not possible for the time being. Let's change someone else."
Meng Boshan's figure turned into a pixel block and disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by the man named Wei Chu from the Giant God Brigade.
A strong figure appeared. Xue Jing stared at it. Although there were very few, he also saw a few "lines" from various parts of his body. There were very few "points", only a few "points" on the heart, neck, and head that were so dim that they were almost invisible.
This kind of cyborg with alien plants all over his body has very few weaknesses.
"Keep the state of eye flow and use other killer moves..."
Xue Jing exhaled lightly and calmed down.
The real dragon in the body appeared, the power was agitated, the blood boiled, and thousands of sparks burst out.
The soft power was generated with the operation of the power in the body, and was about to condense into the fist...
Xue Jing controlled it with difficulty, trying not to involve the tendons, but to keep the eye flow running.
But soon, the operation of the shaking star fire still instinctively involved some tendons, causing problems in the operation of the eye flow, and the pupils immediately returned to normal from the vertical pupils.
Xue Jing felt a sharp pain in his forearm, and a small piece protruded from the skin, as if there was a small ball buried inside.
This is because there was an error in the operation of the force, which caused problems with the tendons in this area, entangled together, and formed a nodule.
"It's difficult... but not the kind of difficulty that is absolutely impossible."
Xue Jing nodded, and operated the force to dissolve the tendon nodules.
Then he continued to try.
The second time, Xue Jing's force operation was more radical, and a ball of blood burst directly from his right shoulder. The boiling blood and the entangled tendons were pressed together and exploded.
It was a serious injury, but this was a consciousness simulation. Xue Jing didn't care. He recovered his body with a thought and continued to try.
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 invaded his whole body with soft force, causing severe internal bleeding.
The fourth time, when he had already made a mistake, he forced the force of the real dragon in his body to continue to operate the two killer moves, causing the tendon force to pour into the eyeball, the optic nerve exploded, and he went blind.
The fifth time...
Just like that, Xue Jing relied on the fact that this was a simulation of consciousness and conducted various bold experiments without any scruples. While destroying his body, his control over the "two kills in one" also improved rapidly.
More than half an hour later.
Xue Jing opened his dragon eyes and pupils, and the skin on his right arm was like boiling water, with countless small bags constantly bulging out and shrinking back.
The blood in his body was boiling and burning. Although there were signs of being out of control, he still kept it firmly under his control.
After more than ten seconds, he finally used the power of shaking star fire completely.
The powerful soft power condensed on the front of his right fist. In his vision, Xue Jing locked onto a dim "dot" on Wei Chu's chest in front of him.
"——Shaking Star Fire."
The right fist was swung out, and there seemed to be some sparks on the front of the fist, cutting through the air and blasting forward.
The fist touched Wei Chu's chest, and all the power was accurately poured into that "dot".
Wei Chu, who had a protective membrane that was extremely effective in protecting the martial artist's power, was supposed to block the invasion of soft power, but this time it failed to block it.
Although nearly half of the power was still blocked by the protective membrane, the other half successfully entered Wei Chu's body along that 'point'.
"Gu-pu-"
After a strange sound, Wei Chu's chest suddenly swelled like a balloon, and all kinds of strange rustling sounds came from inside.
Then it deflated again.
Blood flowed out of his ears, eyes, nose, and mouth at the same time, and then he vomited with a wow.
Countless broken flesh and blood were vomited out by him, and the whole person fell forward in a pool of blood on the ground, dying.
Xue Jing nodded.
"Not bad."
Although he was still very unskilled and could not use it in actual combat, at least he used it successfully.
Eye Guanliu + Shaking Star Fire.
Xue Jing stretched and felt a little tired.
He calculated the time, and the consciousness simulation had been going on for more than half an hour.
"There is still room for leeway... It's obviously been running at high intensity for more than half an hour."
At Lv4, [Visualization·True] will make him feel mentally dry and dizzy after about half an hour.
After upgrading, not only is the simulation more realistic, but it also lasts longer.
Xue Jing continued to practice for a while, and 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 Value +339]
[... Visualization·True Experience Value +267]
After closing the panel and resting for a while, Xue Jing began today's daily practice of shaking armor and hibernating dragon skills.
During the practice, time passed slowly.
...
The next day, near noon.
"...No, I will go see my family first, and I will contact you after I get together with my family."
"...Okay, 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.
With the long practice of martial arts, his ability to control his body has become stronger, so his skills in stroking cats and smoothing their fur have also improved. At this time, his slender five fingers brushed across the cat's back, and the soft force made her fur explode and she meowed with pleasure.
"...That's it, I'll contact you later."
After a round of social etiquette, Xue Jing hung up the phone.
"Is it the agent of the Galaxy Club?" The cat enjoyed the smoothing of its fur and spoke lazily.
Xue Jing nodded and hummed.
The person on the other end of the phone was the exclusive agent arranged by Wu Youqing for him, who was responsible for all matters related to his next competition in Fengcheng.
"Director Chen said we can reach Fengcheng before dark today. We'll go to my sister's place for a meal and take a look around Fengcheng to see if there are any places to play."
Xue Jing said the next arrangements.
Maomao yawned, her emerald pupils were hazy, and she looked like she was about to fall asleep.
For some reason, she has become more and more sleepy recently.
Xue Jing smiled, and the action of stroking the hair with his hand became lighter. With his other hand, he picked up his phone and started to check the news.
[… The U19 Unlimited Elite Fighting Competition Fengcheng Knockout Round is about to begin. The list of knockout rounds will be announced tomorrow, and a draw ceremony will be held at the same time… Dark horse player Li Chengxuan said that there is no one who can fight…]
[… At nine o'clock in the evening the day before yesterday, the ‘Infinite 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 boy…]
[… The ‘Sky Pirates’ are becoming more and more rampant. Shang Mingyang, director of the Qingcheng Security Bureau, Xin Qingyun, director of the Fengcheng Security Bureau, Guan Yingzhi, head of the Kangde Security Company, and Ye Sian, head of the Kuroshio Security Company… jointly declared that they would definitely wipe out the ‘Sky Pirates’ and return a blue and clean sky to the Fifth Metropolitan Area]
…
After casually checking 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 got more than 600 divinity points, and used 300 points on Shadow Flame, leaving 368 points.
In the following days, he spent time every night, diligently pulling divinity from Ning Fengwan, pulling 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 500 points again.
Xue Jing was a little hesitant.
Should he save these 500 points and use them to upgrade the Twins, or...
He looked at Shadow Flame.
[Shadow Flame Lv3 (Divinity Required for Upgrade: 506/500)]
At present, Twins are definitely ranked first in the priority of using divinity.
The cooldown time of passive resurrection is reduced, and an active effect of Twins is added, which is a very good improvement at each level.
But Shadow Flame...is not bad either.
As he came into contact with this skill, he found that it really felt better and better the more he used it.
Concentrate your eyes to gain dark vision, wrap the sword energy to increase the attack range and damage, and also defend against strange "magic damage" such as "sound waves" and "strong light".
He has a feeling that if this skill continues to be upgraded, there will be many surprises.
"Well... it takes 800 points of divinity to upgrade the twins to Lv5, and there are still nearly 300 points left. I don't know when I can get it."
Xue Jing is a little itchy.
It's uncomfortable to have money but not spend it.
"Forget it, upgrade Shadow Flame first. There is no urgent active effect for Twins at present..."
Xue Jing upgraded [Shadow Flame].
[Shadow Flame Lv4 (Divinity required for upgrade: 6/800)]
"Furious——"
A ball of black flame ignited in his hand.
As soon as he used it, Xue Jing felt a clear difference.
It was similar to the feeling when he just got the hidden dragon power and turned the power into a real dragon.
Compared with the previous lifeless black flame in his hand, there is a more lively feeling.
It seemed to be alive.
Xue Jing seemed to understand something and threw the black flame to the floor in front of him.
Then he had a thought.
The black flame that fell to the ground did not explode and annihilate the matter, but after a period of change, it turned into a "cat" that was exactly the same as Ning Feng's cat, composed purely of shadow flames.
The four feet of the "shadow cat" were stepping on the shaking black flames, and the eyes were white holes. It opened its mouth and licked its right paw, and used its paw to wash its face. Its posture and movements were extremely agile, no different from a living cat.
And Xue Jing... did not control it to make this move, it did it all automatically.
Xue Jing looked at it curiously, "Interesting... Shadow Flame is activated and turned into a shadow beast?"
...
