Chapter 15 Secret Arts and Electric Palms

Secret art abilities are a special category, encompassing most methods of acquiring extraordinary power through postnatal cultivation. The characteristic is that each branch of secret arts has a complete, self-consistent, and effective cultivation system. Even some martial arts systems can be classified as secret arts.

Like martial arts, these secret art systems have three levels: low, medium, and high. Some are strong, some are weak, and the upper limits vary. Moreover, learning many secret art systems requires talent.

Over the past month, Zhou Jing had taken many Explorer courses and learned that most of the secret art knowledge in the main world was collected from various Star Realm planes. Lei Wanjun’s “Daoist Arts” were one of them.

For these "foreign secret arts," the main world would process and improve them to adapt them to the environment of the main world, reduce power conflicts, and prevent incompatibility.

And use technology to analyze the principles of foreign secret arts, integrate them into the technological system of the main world, and strengthen the civilization's technical reserves.

Out of interest, Zhou Jing had specifically learned about various secret art systems during this period and found that the original "Daoist Arts" had more demanding talent requirements, requiring long-term cultivation to get started, and had very low combat effectiveness in the early stages.

The version taught by the academy was a processed version of the main world, which had developed a set of "rapid combat power" methods.

One is taking drugs, and the other is magical artifacts.

Cultivating "Daoist Arts" involves taking elixirs to increase mana and assist in cultivation.

The main world analyzed many prescriptions, improved them with technological means, reduced side effects, and then mass-produced them for the academy on a large scale.

Magical artifacts are an important source of combat power for "Daoist Art practitioners" in the early stage. The main world cracked the methods of refining magical artifacts and mass-produced standard magical artifacts.

The flying swords, flag formations, and compass used by Lei Wanjun were all of this type, no different from mass-produced magic props.

Although they are standard, the quality is extremely high. The elixirs and magical artifacts made by the assembly line are very precise in their materials. Perhaps a common mass-produced prop is considered a top-grade treasure in the Star Realm plane where the Daoist Arts originated. This is the advantage of the main world's technology and productivity.

Therefore, the super-powered academy has quite abundant cultivation resources, allowing Lei Wanjun to have good immediate combat power after getting started with "Daoist Arts" for a month. Otherwise, let alone a month, even practicing for three to five years would not be of much use.

However, there are advantages and disadvantages to everything.

The main world's technical analysis can revitalize foreign secret arts, use technology to assist cultivation, and become "localized."

But there is also a biggest flaw, that is, the system is incomplete.

After all, it is knowledge collected, and the lack of exercises and higher-level information is common, which limits the growth of many foreign secret arts for the time being.

Moreover, the formation of each secret art system is a long-term evolution of a world, and it has an inseparable relationship with the cultural heritage of different planes.

The main world lacks this part of the cultivation, and sometimes it cannot be solved, so to deduce the system, it has to decipher and study the culture together. "Daoist Arts" is an example.

In addition, Lei Wanjun's own ability greatly helps his Daoist Art cultivation.

Many secret art systems are related to mental attributes. Mental and spiritual power users can sometimes rapidly increase mana as soon as they get started, which is equivalent to years of hard work for normal people, and they also learn things quickly.

This is also one of the reasons why the Superpower Bureau clearly has a postnatal cultivation extraordinary system, but it is only open to awakened ability users… Once the ability is linked to a certain secret art, it is the genius of the system, and the training is more effective and has more research value.

The relevant knowledge learned in the month of enrollment flashed through his mind one by one, and Zhou Jing's thoughts turned rapidly, and in an instant, he analyzed Lei Wanjun's ability situation.

The moment the countdown returned to zero, Lei Wanjun moved.

He raised his sword finger and softly chanted:

"Go!"

The green flying sword trembled, and then flew out, like a stream of light.

Whoosh—clang!

Zhou Jing leaned to the side, picked up the blade, and successfully intercepted the flying sword, knocking it away.

The green flying sword circled and slashed down again, as if an invisible swordsman was trembling in close combat, and the sword edge stabbed from various tricky angles.

Zhou Jing's footsteps did not stop, while running quickly to approach Lei Wanjun, he danced the long knife into a ball of clear light to protect his body.

Ding ding dang dang!

The long knife and the flying sword frequently intersected, and the sword edge could not break through the light of the knife once.

But the flying sword was flexible and swift, always entangled around Zhou Jing, who was moving at high speed, and it was difficult to get rid of.

The two sides quickly narrowed to within thirty steps. At this distance, Zhou Jing could easily cross it with a sprint.

But at this moment, a sense of warning suddenly rose in Zhou Jing's heart, and he suddenly turned a corner and flashed to the side.

In the next instant, the looming incarnation of will did not know when it approached, and slammed a punch at the position where Zhou Jing was originally standing, and the ground cracked.

"Lei Wanjun's spiritual ability seems to be a tangible and qualitative incarnation, but it is actually a condensate of spiritual power. The punches he throws are actually the embodiment of mind power. The power is not small…"

Zhou Jing's mind turned rapidly.

Suddenly, a sense of dizziness struck, and his consciousness became trance.

"Mental interference!"

He was startled, strengthened his spirits, while dealing with the flying sword, he quickly retreated, away from the incarnation of will, and the mental interference was reduced.

"It seems that the incarnation of will will cause passive mental interference to the surrounding life forms, the closer the influence is, the greater it is…"

Zhou Jing had watched Lei Wanjun's game yesterday and knew that the incarnation of will had a long range and weak attack power.

Like this kind of spiritual condensate, some will give the user feedback damage when attacked physically, but some are physically immune and will not be injured at all… Unfortunately, Lei Wanjun, who has an S-level potential assessment, is the latter.

This person's incarnation of will is like a ghostly assistant. As long as his mental power is still available, it will not be destroyed, and it is extremely restrained against physical attackers.

Zhou Jing's eyes flashed, and suddenly he stepped on the ground, shaking up a few gravels, and threw them at Lei Wanjun not far away, the momentum was like a bullet.

However, the stones hit the light curtain of the Five Colors Flag Formation, and they shattered one after another, only shaking the light curtain for a while.

Lei Wanjun, who was in the Five Colors Flag Formation, was unscathed, and looked at this side with a smile.

The next moment, Lei Wanjun's palm burning with crimson flames suddenly clapped remotely.

Whoosh!

A half-person-sized flame palm print flew out from the air.

At the same time, the flying sword and the incarnation of will also cooperated to attack.

Zhou Jing calmly and freely, the powerful strength turned into explosive speed, and the physical fitness of the four-time different blood strengthening was fully exerted, and he immediately slashed out a flashing cold light, cutting the flame palm print in two, and knocking the flying sword far away, and cutting a clear gap in the sword body. It swayed like a drunk, and the clear light dimmed a lot.

He fought and wandered, resisting the entanglement of the flying sword and the incarnation of will, and endured the mental interference to turn his mind.

"The flying sword is a long-range attack to contain, the incarnation of will assists in the attack, and applies control, the flag formation protects itself, and the compass can launch elemental attacks… Although this person's abilities are fancy, it is a good tactical combination."

Zhou Jing wanted to get close again and again, and the flying sword and the incarnation of will blocked him again and again.

Taking advantage of the containment, Lei Wanjun did not stay in place, and also wandered to maintain a distance, like a dragonfly skimming the water, every time his foot lightly touched the ground, he could fly three or four meters lightly, quite agile.

His Five Colors Flag Formation floated up in the air, hanging around his body, and the light curtain turned into a polygonal shield to protect him.

Zhou Jing frowned, flexibly dodging the fist of the incarnation of will, and by the way, constantly and forcefully chopping the flying sword, almost every time he could accurately hit the gap of the flying sword, so that the crack gradually spread.

Finally, under his powerful slash, the flying sword could not bear the weight and shattered with a bang.

Clang!

The two halves of the green flying sword fell to the ground, completely destroyed.

Lei Wanjun's face remained unchanged, and he raised his sword finger again, and another flying sword shot out from the iron box behind him, and attacked again.

Then, he looked at Zhou Jing, who was frowning, and smiled:

"I bought a lot of this kind of mass-produced low-level magic weapon. There are more than a dozen flying swords in my iron box. Although my Daoist Arts are just getting started, the art of controlling objects can only drive one sword, but can you finish it?"

"Tsk!"

Zhou Jing's eyes twitched.

Although the mass-produced magic weapons sold by the academy are not expensive, they are not too cheap. A low-level magic weapon costs several thousand yuan.

He actually brought more than a dozen on stage… The referee didn't blow the whistle for such a rascal, did he receive money?

Zhou Jing complained secretly.

Sure enough, fighting against the fancy power users in the main world is not as monotonous as in the alien beast world.

Fighting in the same system, the mode is almost the same. But when power users of different systems fight, the situation is much more complicated.

However, the core idea remains the same, either find the opponent's weakness, or maximize your strengths…

And as a "flesh reinforcement," this strong physical fitness is its own advantage.

——I don’t care how fancy you are, I’ll just slash how I should!

A flash of electric light flashed in Zhou Jing's eyes, turning on [Internal Discharge] and [Thunder Assault], and the speed of the whole person soared suddenly, instantly throwing off the flying sword and the incarnation of will that came to contain him.

He seemed to turn into a flash of lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed to Lei Wanjun, who had no time to retreat, and slashed with a knife.

The blade broke through the air, its sound was shrill, swift and heavy.

Clang!

The Five Colors Flag Formation shield vibrated violently.

Lei Wanjun's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly wiped the compass, drew out a flash of lightning, and slapped Zhou Jing with his backhand.

"Three Talents Reversal Compass · Heavenly Thunder!"

Crackling!

The electric light palm print slapped on Zhou Jing's chest, flashing.

Zhou Jing was jolted by the electricity, his chest was numb and crisp… but that was all.

A strange look appeared on his face.

"You call this electricity? Try mine!"

Electric light burst in Zhou Jing's eyes.

The fierce white electric snake instantly clung to his whole body, all poured into the blade, and poured out towards the Five Colors Flag Formation shield.

Zizzz——crackling!!

The Five Colors Flag Formation swayed and flickered under the bombardment of the mad electricity.

The next moment, the long knife was recovered, and then suddenly drew a flash of electric light.

Bo!

Like a hot knife cutting butter, the Five Colors Flag Formation shield broke.

Lei Wanjun was not flustered. At this critical moment, he controlled the flying sword in the distance to insert it directly into Zhou Jing's back, and then at the moment before the shield broke, he drew out a sword with his backhand, held it in his hand and stabbed straight.

Zhou Jing did not look back, and after hearing the strong wind, he analyzed the direction of the flying sword attack in his mind, and only tilted his upper body to urgently avoid the flying sword coming from behind.

At the same time, his long knife entangled and picked up, and rolled away Lei Wanjun's sword in his hand - unloading the weapon of a melee novice who could not even hold the sword steady was just a matter of one move.

However, taking advantage of this short moment, Lei Wanjun had re-condensed the incarnation of will beside him, and urgently let the incarnation of will stand in front of him, and manipulated it to punch Zhou Jing's head.

The fist wind struck, Zhou Jing's face did not change, and he raised his hand quickly, punching against punch!

Bang!

His heavy punch directly destroyed the power of the incarnation of will, as if blowing up a balloon, making a burst of sound.

And the remaining power was not diminished, approaching Lei Wanjun's face in the blink of an eye.

At this short moment, Lei Wanjun could not act any more, and watched the fist enlarge in his sight, and finally couldn't help showing a look of horror on his face.

With the power of the other party's physical reinforcement, this punch was solid, wouldn't it be equivalent to plastic surgery?!

But in this instant, Zhou Jing suddenly turned his fist into a palm, grabbed Lei Wanjun's neck, and smashed him to the ground with his backhand.

"Uh!" Lei Wanjun's back hit the ground, and he almost couldn't catch his breath, and he snorted.

Whoosh!

Before he could react, suddenly a flash of cold light flashed in his vision, and the long knife was inserted into the ground against his cheek.

The cold breath came through the cold blade.

Lei Wanjun widened his eyes, his body stiff, and he didn't dare to move.

"You lost."

Zhou Jing pulled out the long knife.

Lei Wanjun then dared to get up, his face embarrassed: "I admit it, it seems that you are more skilled, I am not good at learning, I have a chance to ask you for advice."

He was a little disappointed, thinking that he was different from other S-level enchanting bitches, but he didn't expect to not even be able to injure Zhou Jing.

Zhou Jing did not commit, shrugged: "Do you know what your biggest problem is?"

"…Could it be that my methods are complicated, broad but not precise? That's what my Daoist Arts teacher said to me."

Lei Wanjun's face was solemn, and he made a gesture of asking for advice.

Zhou Jing shook his head. The other party was still polite, and he didn't mind chatting a few more words:

"Of course not, you have only studied for a month, how can you talk about 'broad but not precise', don't put gold on your face, it is normal for you to be complicated now. It is not that the methods are chaotic and not good, actual combat is what you use, one more trick is one more card, your ability does form a simple tactical combination… But your biggest problem is that your abilities are rich, but the intensity is not enough."

To be fair, his set of tactics is simple and effective. If the intensity is up, such as the Five Colors Flag Formation shield is more tenacious, or the flying sword is faster, or the attack power of the incarnation of will is higher, he will have a lot of difficulties in fighting.

"That makes sense, I'll study it carefully when I go back… Thanks, add a friend?" Lei Wanjun deeply agreed and had a better impression of Zhou Jing.

"Okay, talk after the fight."

Zhou Jing nodded, turned and stepped down.

The big screen showed that Zhou Jing was the winner of the game. The War Banner students were silent, and the Crown students finally found a chance to cheer excitedly.

"Zhou Jing! Zhou Jing!"

"Haha, I knew he was reliable!"

In the waiting area under the stage, the Crown teammates greeted him excitedly, and surrounded Zhou Jing like stars holding the moon.

Deng Yunjie had a look of appreciation on his face and gave Zhou Jing a thumbs up.

"Good fight, finally won a hard battle… By solving one of the trump cards of the War Banner, their advantage is not so great."

"But they still have the advantage."

Zhou Jing waved his hand, not very happy, turned his head and looked at the direction of the War Banner team across the arena.

Li Xiaoyin was also looking at him from a distance, waving his hand.

Zhou Jing shook his head, retracted his gaze, looked at the score on the big screen, and sighed secretly.

The Crown points are still at a disadvantage in the arena competition. If you want to win the game, the opportunity is quite slim.

The academy promotes collective cooperation, and the competition system is also determined by this. One person cannot do it.

However, although there is a high probability of losing, we still have to fight to the last game and do our best.

At least, have a face-to-face fight with Li Xiaoyin, who was born in Rome, and see the difference between people.
