Yu a 'convinced' target! The seventh-order inheritance of the alchemy method was too profound, and Fang Yu's three views were difficult to fully agree with. 。instead agreed with Xu Jingming's straigh...“This staff technique…” Liu Hai, Tu Ling, Gong Chuan Mingxin, Haru *Singh, Teger *Fosen and other masters all showed astonishment. Each of them was very talented in martial arts and had reached the fifth rank. They could completely feel the specialness of this staff technique!
These shadows of the stick seemed to be dancing pythons, their movements unpredictable and without discernible patterns. Each shadow shifted constantly, attempting to evade Xu Jingming's spear and strike him down. Yet, these shadows also seamlessly blended into a single entity, one move flowing into the next like a giant net, completely encasing Xu Jingming.
"This Tia Nuo envoy, he's wielding what appears to be a foundation of some supreme inheritance from across the cosmos," Pang Ze declared from the stands. "Over all these years, I've only ever seen someone from the 'Great Horn Star Alliance' family display similar techniques."
That unique flavor, Pang Ze identified at once.
"Tian Ya Nuo is a highly esteemed envoy. It's normal for him to have access to the foundational parts of the highest inheritance of cosmic humanity." Pang Ze nodded understandingly, "Xu Jingming's chances of winning this battle are slim."
……
Tiyaano most worshipped his father, who painstakingly created three secret techniques for him. He also said that focusing on the cultivation of these three secret techniques would give him a chance to ascend to the ninth rank!
These three great secrets, from the different stages of planetary life, star life, and even the ninth order, how to practice each stage and how to make progress. His father broke it down, meticulously creating a good plan for his son.
"To be defeated by my family's secret technique, a weak civilization's first genius should be proud." Tiaono thought, but his face soon changed because, as he exerted all his strength to unleash his ultimate move 'Tian Mang Sequence', Xu Jingming actually blocked every single attack.
No matter how fiercely he attacked, Xu Jingming seemed to be struggling, but he indeed held his ground.
"Boom boom boom~~"
Xu Jingming felt an unprecedented sense of terrifying pressure, and he immediately used his strongest defensive move now—Spatial Domain!
He learned the five great moves recorded in the first part of the "Hua Guang" swordplay he studied. Only the "Spatial Domain Style" was purely defensive, seeking no offense but only to defend against enemy attacks. A long spear was wielded, its shadow forming a dome that enveloped Xu Jingming.
And the shadow of the gun had two layers, one layer formed by the front half of the gun head, and the other layer formed by the tail area of the gun, desperately resisting those streaks of stick shadows.
These phantoms' power wasn't overwhelming, only about 30-40% stronger than Xu Jingming's. However, their trajectory was unpredictable, like venomous snakes, moving in curves to search for openings! As long as there was the slightest defensive gap, they would exploit it.
Xu Jingming's two layers of gun shadow shields, the outer layer of gun shadow shield occasionally also loses its defense, it is the inner layer of gun shadow shield that resists.
"The 'Spatial Domain Style' that Xuan passed on is about completely controlling space, making it your own domain to deflect all attacks." Xu Jingming also found it incredibly difficult. "But Tiana only has a single staff weapon. Even with my full defense, I'm struggling so much"
*****
"Xu Jingming is going to lose."
He was struggling to hold on, feeling like he was about to break.
In the live broadcast scene, they are also showing a slow-motion replay of the two fighters' exchanges. Global audiences, even at ten times slower speed, can clearly see... that Traiano has a crushing advantage. His stick shadows attack frantically, while Xu Jingming struggles to defend, narrowly dodging each blow.
"To stay for too long will inevitably lead to loss," Liu Hai also frowned, barely holding on for a moment, but as long as he made a mistake, it would be over.
"Tyano and Xu Jingming's strength is indeed far beyond ours." Tiger * Forson also secretly sighed, "Tyano's terrifying staff technique, I can't even take one move."
"Jingming," Li Miaomiao, Wang Yi, Dai Xiaqing, and many other of Xu Jingming's relatives and friends also became nervous.
They could all see that Xu Jingming was at a complete disadvantage!
"Huh"
Pang Ze was a little surprised, he carefully watched the match. In his eyes, the battle between Tia and Xu Jingming was incredibly clear, "Such amazing comprehension! Xu Jingming's marksmanship is clearly improving!"
……
Of the three great secrets, the 'Sky Python Sequence', when facing this terrifying move, Xu Jingming indeed felt a suffocating pressure that made him feel like he would be crushed and lose the match.
But whenever the long spear blocked the strikes, each time deflecting and redirecting force, he could also vaguely sense the opponent's 'stick technique' in motion.
Just like when Liu Hai and Tie Ya Nuo fought, he could imitate some of the staff techniques.
Xu Jingming's "Space Domain Style" is also extremely proficient in the aspect of unloading and borrowing force. The more he resists, the deeper his understanding of Ti Yano's staff technique becomes.
“Incredible staff techniques.” In Xu Jingming’s sensing, each staff technique was a weave of multiple forces. Sometimes a single staff technique might only involve three forces, sometimes five or six forces intertwined, and sometimes it was purely one force... The force was always changing, but the power of each staff technique was terrifying, and its trajectory was unpredictable.
"The force kept changing, adapting to my aim with his stickwork. It was incredibly difficult to block."
But there is a core kind of power in stick fighting, that kind of power is the root of stick fighting, other powers are variations of stick fighting.
One is the core, two to eight are all variables
"Mastering the art of the staff will allow for a seamless and unified form."
Xu Jingming could only vaguely determine the general idea, after all, the stick technique was too complex and there was no detailed transmission, making it impossible to learn thoroughly.
But for Xu Jingming, this vague understanding opened a door for him.
"Seize the moment, and make the most of every opportunity, from the first to the last"
"Xuan's skill with the Hua Guang Gun, isn't its essence also like this"
Xu Jingming once possessed the cosmic legend 'Xuan' and experienced Xuan performing millions of gun stabs consecutively. Though those gun stabs had different techniques, they all shared a 'core'. Grasping this core, all the gun stabs became one, allowing for continuous borrowing of strength through millions of strikes without interruption.
Of course, Xuan's gun skills at the tenth rank were countless times higher than Tia Yano's. Xuan's gun skills had countless variations, with millions of stabs all different.
As for the core
There is no explicit core, but rather a core that naturally forms from the combination of countless variables.
"Essentially, and variables."
At this moment, Xu Jingming reviewed the five major gun techniques of the upper part of "Hua Guang" that he had learned, and gained new insights.
He displayed his spatial domain, imbued with a strange rhythm, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, ever-changing. The gunshots formed circles like water flow, making the defense more fluid and comprehensive. The outer layer of gun-shadow shield effectively blocked the incoming stick shadows.
Actually, the so-called five great secret techniques can be merged with each other. Following Xu'an's guidance, the ultimate goal is to integrate them all into the Huaiguang Style!
Now that the spatial domain is in place and naturally merges with the water domain, its power has significantly increased, nearing the state of "great accomplishment."
"Xu Jingming's marksmanship is getting stronger!" Tyano also noticed, he unleashed his secret technique, attacking with all his might. He saw Xu Jingming was at a complete disadvantage, about to collapse at any moment. But suddenly, Xu Jingming's marksmanship improved, completely defending against his attack.
Xu Jingming even launched a counterattack, his spear erupting violently like a volcanic eruption.
This is the ultimate technique, 'Fire Style'.
Tiana immediately parried the attack. The clash of weapons sent Tiana staggering back over ten meters. She was stunned.
Xu Jingming moved slightly with his feet, already catching up to Tia Yano. He shot out a series of gunshots! His marksmanship combined the artistic conception of 'water', but when it was unleashed, there was also the ferocity of 'fire'! Each move was imbued with the subtle borrowing and accumulation of force from the 'light transformation style'. All these gun techniques naturally flowed into one.
"What"
Tiana narrowly dodged each attack, forced to retreat with every parry.
Xu Jingming's marksmanship was terrifying, his moves continuous and swift, relentlessly attacking. Even Tiaiano couldn't believe it.
“Splendid! Water’s gentleness, fire’s fury, the earth’s solidity, mastery over spatial domains, and light's swiftness—these five styles are now one. Only when the five styles merge into one is there true mastery of the Light-Strike Gun.” Xu Jingming felt a surge of joy within him. "In this battle, I gained some insight. I’ve managed to incorporate both water and fire into the Light Style."
Three in one, with a smooth flow of force, Xu Jingming felt a sense of completeness.
If he were to view his combat stats panel, he would see that the Huí Hóng Gun Technique skill level jumping from "Rank 5, 39%" to "Rank 5, 41%" and then to "Rank 5, 43%..."
...is not just the Hua Hong Gun Technique, but also techniques like the Starry Sky Gun Technique, footwork, and even combat bonuses are all constantly fluctuating and rising. ...sorbing energy. 。Suddenly, a flying vehicle arrived above the courtyard. 。Xu Jingming sensed something and immediately got up to walk to the corridor. He put on his slippers, dressed himself, and went...
