Chapter 15 The Climactic Battle

"Five-tenths of your swordsmanship, seven-tenths luck, yet such power…" Feng Bujue muttered. "Looks like… the me from before didn't even qualify to fight you." As he spoke, he had already activated Ling Shi Junshen Shu (Spirit Consciousness Gathering Technique), and stepped on Yuebu (Moonwalk), suddenly accelerating, his figure changing from solid to illusory as he pounced towards Si Yu.

Si Yu's eyes changed slightly, her killing intent growing colder. She spun Feng Sheng (Sealed Saint) upwards, and a fierce sword Qi howled out.

Feng Bujue was not to be outdone, meeting it with Lan Jiao (Tempest Kick), kicking out a black, arc-shaped force.

With a *chi* sound, the two attacks collided in the air, energy exploding in response, and turbulent currents rushed in all directions. Feng Bujue was in the air, and the impact was greater on him, forcing him back a few steps. After this move, he was clearly at a disadvantage.

"It's not over yet." Si Yu said, and the long sword in her hand moved again immediately.

*Huhu hu…* Sword Qi came like layers of waves, cutting continuously. Si Yu's sword was extremely fast, and to onlookers, the sword body had turned into multiple afterimages.

"As expected…" Feng Bujue replied lazily, and immediately stepped back with Yuebu, stabilizing his figure, while at the same time throwing out dozens of Lan Jiao, meeting each of the flying sword Qi.

At this time, the fire sprinklers on the ceiling had been turned off, but the humidity was still very high. The slashes they used exploded in the air, creating bursts of misty air, making for a rare spectacle.

"This is bad… she's even more powerful than I thought." Feng Bujue thought to himself.

Although he made a show of "I'm already invincible," in reality, he knew very well… the power and speed after transforming were only three times his original.

This level of improvement was not much different from the effect of Ling Shi Junshen Shu. It was just that [Demon Descent] also came with three times the Survival Value, as well as the characteristic of unlimited Stamina Value and Spirit Energy Value. Therefore, skills like Lan Jiao and Yuebu, which had no cooldown time, could be used at will.

In addition, if he were to activate Ling Shi Junshen Shu at this moment, the effect would be stacked, so his strength would be more than six times his original state.

However, even so, his strength and Si Yu's were only about equal.

Because… Soul Intent.

First, let's talk about Feng Bujue. His Soul Intent was the continuously existing "Zero-Time Difference Calculation." This ability seemed somewhat similar to "Kenbunshoku Haki (Observation Haki)," but it was fundamentally different. Zero-Time Difference Calculation was not predicting the other party's attack intention, but at the instant the attack occurred, calculating the most reasonable reaction that one's own strength could make, and implementing it precisely.

This ability had only one problem, which was that "prediction" and "calculation" needed a basis. Whether attacking or being attacked, the calculation of Soul Intent was based on "information." For example: If you want to dodge a bullet, then you must at least have a concept of the bullet's flight speed and trajectory, you must know – "speed of sound, straight line," otherwise the calculation will be wrong, and the reaction will also be wrong.

Taking Jue Ge's battle with Shiva as an example, the reason why he was able to win so easily in the end was because when his Soul Intent awakened, he had already been entangled with Shiva for a long time. Therefore, he had a very precise concept of Shiva's physical skills, skills, and the firing speed of spiritual weapons. And the more accurate the information he had, the more perfect the response he could make.

Taking Little Red Riding Hood in "Deng Lou Ji" as an example, although Feng Bujue didn't fight her head-on, he could still construct a basic concept in his mind, such as – "her punches are faster than bullets, and a slap can turn me into a pancake." Based on this, using Soul Intent to calculate the result of "I rush up to fight her" would produce – "death death death death death death" anyway, a thousand or several thousand kinds of death…

That was roughly how Jue Ge's Soul Intent worked, now let's talk about Si Yu.

Si Yu's Soul Intent was "Limit Efficiency," which belonged to the instant-use type. This ability was usually not effective, and there were no quantifiable records in the data, so the system could not include it in her combat power, which was why Si Yu was ranked outside of the top twenty.

However, the effect of this Soul Intent when activated was still exceptionally outstanding.

When a player enters the "Limit Efficiency" state, all flaws in their actions are corrected, and consumption is reduced to the minimum.

Let's give a few more examples, let's talk about running… Why can long-distance runners still stand after running 10,000 meters, while someone like me will fall on the road and not be able to get up? In addition to hard conditions such as muscles, weight, and lung capacity, the most important thing is the method. Running the same distance with reasonable movements and rhythm, combined with breathing, will definitely save more energy than an amateur running around.

Let's talk about… brick breaking. It's the same arm, skin wrapped in bones and flesh, why can people break bricks with one palm, but I can only break my palm bones with one palm? It's the same principle.

Through arduous training, muscle memory becomes part of instinct, and nerve reflexes speed up several times. When speed, strength, and skill… come together and explode at one point, you can do things that ordinary people can't do.

Limit Efficiency is the ability to keep people in this state at all times.

When this Soul Intent is activated, Si Yu can exert her strength to the theoretical limit. The same sword swing, she can do it faster, stronger, but consume less Stamina Value.

Of course, such heaven-defying means also have weaknesses. Although this Soul Intent does not consume any in-game values, it requires the player to bear it with mental power. Once focus is lost, the effect cannot be maintained.

Comparing Jue Ge and Si Yu's Soul Intent, it can be found that Si Yu's Soul Intent obviously has a greater improvement on the player's hard power. She is like a bullet that can't be dodged. As long as her strength is strong enough, no matter how Feng Bujue calculates and responds, he can't surpass the absolute gap in the data.

However, there is still a variable at this moment, which is [Demon Descent].

The effect contained in this title skill is not just what is written in the skill description.

Feng Bujue had already noticed that after demonization, his "realm" was already different.

There is a saying – "The life of selling tofu, worrying about the Prime Minister's affairs."

Feng Bujue is now about the same meaning. His "realm" is already at the level of a martial arts master, but his body is still at the level of a second-rate sect disciple. He can see Si Yu's strengths, but it is difficult to match her in strength.

However, a master is a master after all. In an instant, Feng Bujue had formulated a plan to seize victory.

Indeed, three minutes was enough. Medium-distance slashing and sweeping was just a test of each other. The real victory or defeat could be determined within three moves.

In an instant, within that black Dou Qi (Fighting energy), a red blood light bloomed again. Feng Bujue activated Ling Shi Junshen Shu, stepped on Yuebu, and came killing with all his strength. This time, the speed and power could no longer be forced back with sword Qi.

Seeing this, Si Yu remained calm. Her movement changed greatly, she retracted her momentum to avoid the strong, and her sword tip slanted to block, both attacking and defending.

In one step, Feng Bujue borrowed the momentum of the downward rush, sandwiching several Death Poker cards in both hands, scattering and attacking. Golden light flashed, and each card landed in the gap between life and death, extremely dangerous.

Si Yu snorted coldly, her sword was like a lotus blooming, and she released a series of sharp shadows, shattering the poker cards one by one. Between the collisions, bursts of sounds of metal clashing were heard.

Taking advantage of the situation, Feng Bujue moved forward, taking another step, rushing to within a breath of Si Yu's body.

At this moment, the distance between the two was closer than ever before.

They both knew each other's killing moves, and they knew what the other was going to do.

[Nanto Flying Dragon Fist] was undoubtedly Feng Bujue's ultimate move. In the state of Demon Descent plus Ling Shi Junshen Shu, this was a well-deserved ultimate move. Ordinary script Bosses could not survive under this move.

And Si Yu's killing move was naturally a sword technique – [Seven Clear Frost Cold].

The two used their ultimate moves to the fullest, pushing their skills, states, and Soul Intent to the limit. Sword shadows and fist shadows intertwined, collided, and shattered in the air.

In this seemingly solidified moment, the expressions on the faces of the two were actually smiles.

These two people, who were not too normal in real life, seemed to have found some kind of tacit understanding, some kind of strange communication that only they understood… and enjoyed it.

A few seconds later, the moves ended…

The fists and swords stopped, and the victory or defeat was decided.

In the end, only one figure stood on top of the container. And the other person had turned into white light and dissipated.

[Current quest completed, all main quests completed]

[You have completed this scenario, teleportation will occur automatically in 180 seconds]

Hearing the system prompt, Feng Bujue exhaled a long breath. He looked down at his bloody hands, "Well… if I weren't in a demonized state, her sword moves would have directly interrupted my skills, right…"
