Chapter 307: Divine Power "Later"
Strike back and strike back!
When he flew backwards for the third time, the first thing that came to Lin Ye's mind was the second line of words on the stone wall.
If the wooden man before represented the one who took the initiative, then the white wooden man now represents the one who strikes late.
The black wooden man always takes action before him, while the white wooden man only takes action after he makes a move.
But there is one thing that these two wooden men have in common, that is, they can hit themselves accurately.
The white wooden man will also leave a trail of movement on the ring every time he disappears.
"Why didn't I think of that?"
Looking at the trajectory on the ring, Lin Ye slapped his head. Although he was knocked out by the wooden man the next moment, he was not angry at all. On the contrary, there was a look of enlightenment on his face.
This arena was created by the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall. The Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall created this arena and the wooden man, definitely not to beat himself, but to give himself guidance in martial arts.
Since it is a guide, everything that appears on the ring has its reason for existence.
The wooden man's trajectory is revealed, and giving himself twenty seconds to observe also illustrates this point. (Note that one breath is one breath, which is usually two seconds)
"What if I follow the wooden man's movements?"
In ten breaths, with Lin Ye's current memory, he could completely remember the movement trajectory of the wooden man.
Back on the ring again, Lin Ye launched his attack according to the attack trajectory of the white wooden man.
A surprising scene appeared.
After his figure had just walked half of the path walked by the white wooden man, Lin Ye was surprised to find that the scene he saw had changed.
It turned out that when he just launched an attack and had not yet hit the white wooden man, the attack of the white wooden man had already hit him and knocked him away.
But this time, when he was halfway along the track, the background of the picture he saw changed.
The ring became a little blurry, and the feeling was like the scene you see when driving at 300 miles per hour.
Blurred and floating...
When you move at a very fast speed, the scenery around you will become blurry.
At the moment when everything around him became blurry, he saw the wooden man move, and he could still see it clearly. The wooden man raised the wooden sword in his hand, tapped his left foot lightly, and then came towards him. Three meters in front of him on the left, the long sword stabbed out at a 42-degree left angle.
After seeing clearly the landing point of the wooden man and the direction of the sword, Lin Ye was just about to respond, but was surprised to find that his figure had appeared three meters in front of him on the left, and the tip of the wooden man's sword was just against his chest.
Bang!
Although his body flew out of the ring, Lin Ye's face was full of excitement.
He finally understood how the wooden man did it.
Keep experimenting!
Once, twice, three times...
After seven consecutive times, Lin Ye confirmed that his guess was correct.
When the white wooden man attacked, time paused and space crossed.
The moment he made a move, the white wooden man followed suit, but just before the white wooden man was about to collide with him, the white wooden man's time stopped.
The white wooden man's time stopped, but my own time did not stop, so my attack continued, but it could not fall on the white wooden man, because I and the white wooden man were no longer in the same time.
For example, the waves hit the reef every minute. Suppose you are the wave and the reef is a wooden man. Because the previous wave has hit the reef, the reef knows that the next wave will hit it in one minute, and also knows the height and position that the wave can hit.
The same is true for the white wooden man. His time is paused, and he can see where his next attack will land. Then time resumes flowing, and he makes changes based on his next landing point to achieve the effect of hitting.
The white wooden man is able to do all this thanks to the moving trajectory revealed on the ring.
Lin Ye didn't know why this trajectory could have such an effect, but he achieved the same effect by moving according to this trajectory.
The reason why he still lost after using this trajectory was because the white wooden man was more familiar with it than him and reacted faster.
Although I noticed it, it may seem like a long time, but in fact the pause was only a flash of lightning, and it was not easy to react immediately afterwards.
But I finally found the reason for myself.
For the next half hour, Lin Ye was trying to familiarize himself with this movement trajectory. The more regular it was, the earlier he found himself pausing, which gave him more time to react.
An hour later, the white wooden man disappeared on the stage.
It wasn't that Lin Ye defeated the white wooden man. He was still being beaten during this hour, because even though he imitated the movement trajectory of the white wooden man and was able to do it accurately, his speed was still not as fast as the white wooden man.
The speed difference is so small that it may not be noticeable to the naked eye, but it does exist.
It's like 0.9999999 in mathematics...
Even if there are countless 9s after the decimal point, it is still not 1.
For Lin Ye, what he needed was not to defeat the white wooden man, but to learn this set of movement trajectories.
This set of tracks represents the existence of a power beyond what he can currently comprehend.
At least this kind of thing involving time is too advanced for him.
The white wooden man disappeared, but Lin Ye did not stop. Instead, he continued to practice and familiarize himself with the trajectory on the ring.
One hour.
long time.
one day.
Three days...
Later on, Lin Ye had lost all concept of time because his entire mind was invested in it.
Speed up, speed up again!
Speed up, speed up again!
On the arena, one could only see the afterimages left by Lin Ye, which were so dense and numerous that it looked like a piece of white paper filled with lines drawn with a pen, like a tangled ball of thread.
call out!
Lin Ye stopped, and this time he did not move again. As he stopped this time, the afterimages on the ring disappeared in the next moment.
Phew!
Lin Ye let out a long breath, his eyes sparkling. Since he was able to travel back and forth between the alien world and the real world, he learned martial arts techniques and Taoist magical powers, including the Sky-controlling Sword and the peach wood sword that was later struck by thunder.
In his opinion, the benefits he gained this time were second only to the City God Seal.
Originally in his mind, the City God Seal was just a treasure and its status was not particularly high, even lower than that of the peach wood sword. However, this time he was able to comprehend the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall, all because of the City God Seal.
The importance of the City God Seal became the first in his mind.
The City God Seal was even more mysterious and powerful than he had imagined.
After this meditation is over, he will definitely study the City God Seal carefully, and if possible, interact more with those underworld officials and talk some more.
The underworld in Canglan County was completely wiped out, but there are other county towns in Nanjiangzhou, and the underworlds in these county towns are all intact.
Retracting his thoughts, Lin Ye valued the City God Seal so much, precisely because this time, because of the City God Seal, he was able to comprehend the Zhenwu Power Transmission Wall, and it brought him huge gains.
The first picture gave him a deeper understanding of martial arts, while the second picture greatly improved his strength.
But in Lin Ye's heart, the gains from the first two pictures combined are not as great as those from the third picture.
Here, he gained a martial arts supernatural power that was close to the Tao.
"Later!"
This is the name Lin Ye gave to the magical power he learned from the white wooden man.
From just beginning to explore this magical power to gradually becoming proficient in it, Lin Ye now understood why he was able to comprehend this magical power.
That was because he had originally comprehended the magical power of seeing details.
The supernatural powers that the soul comprehended after listening to the syllables of the Tao.
Although this was just his guess, Lin Ye was sure that his guess was correct.
Because there is a causal relationship between the magical power of Houzhi and the magical power of Jianwei.
Being meticulous means being able to magnify and see the opponent's flaws, and then it allows him to anticipate the opponent's next move and make predictions in advance.
Only with extremely careful observation can we make predictions.
As for why the magical powers of Taoism are related to the magical powers of martial arts, Lin Ye has his own understanding.
All paths return to their origin.
When one practices to a certain level, in fact, whether it is Taoism, Buddhism, the underworld, or warriors, they all have many things in common.
If we compare cultivation to a river, then whether you swim across it, make a bamboo raft, or get a wooden boat, they are all just methods. The result is the same, and the essence is also the same.
Since we are all crossing the river, the direction is the same, the problems and troubles encountered in the river are also roughly the same, the solutions only differ in the tools, and the outcomes are the same.
Although his realm is still half-step to Martial Saint, in Lin Ye's opinion, the gains this time are far greater than if he became a Martial Saint.
By now he has understood that in order to become a Martial Saint, in addition to physical strength, one more thing is to comprehend a martial arts skill.
The martial arts abilities that each Martial Saint comprehends are different. At least with such a small number of Martial Saints, the possibility of having the same abilities is very small.
Lin Ye is confident that as long as he becomes a Martial Saint, he will definitely be no worse than those veteran Martial Saints.
Because the magical power of "Houzhi" is too powerful.
Strike last and gain the upper hand. Unless the opponent can kill you without you having any reaction, you will be invincible by relying on the magical power of "arriving last".
This is a magical power with extremely great potential and power.
He didn't know what magical powers the Martial Saint of Zhenwu Temple had comprehended, but before coming to Qingzhou, he had talked about it with Jing Yu. According to Jing Yu's guess, the magical powers comprehended by the Martial Saint of Zhenwu Temple were not that powerful.
The reason why Jing Yu made such a speculation was that the Martial Saint of Zhenwu Palace rarely appeared in the outside world.
Although the Martial Saints are all high and mighty and in seclusion for long periods of time, that usually happens many years after they become a Martial Saint.
Generally, when one has just entered the realm of Martial Saint, he will not go into seclusion directly. Instead, some Martial Saints will have their sects hold grand ceremonies and invite martial arts masters from other sects to participate.
Some would travel around, or seek out other martial saints to learn from.
To put it bluntly, it means to show off your power in front of others.
A Martial Saint is, after all, a human being. He has cultivated himself to this level and has stood at the pinnacle of martial arts. It would be abnormal if he had nothing to show for it.
This has nothing to do with one’s character.
However, the Martial Saint of Zhenwu Temple is such an abnormal Martial Saint.
After becoming the Martial Saint, not only did no celebrations take place, he even rarely showed up in the Zhenwu Hall. No more than ten disciples of the Zhenwu Hall had ever seen this Martial Saint.
If there were no strange phenomena appearing when one enters the realm of Martial Saint, and if these phenomena could not be faked, people from other sects would probably have doubted whether such a powerful Martial Saint existed in the Zhenwu Palace.
In Jing Yu's words, the reason why the Martial Saint of Zhenwu Palace is so low-key should be related to the martial arts powers he possesses.
It is very likely that this kind of martial arts ability is not very aggressive, or it is quite special or even embarrassing.
The reason why Jing Yu said it was embarrassing was that in the history of martial arts, there was once a martial arts saint who had comprehended a martial arts power similar to transformation.
When this magical power is performed, the body will change from male to female and the strength will increase threefold.
Because of this, this powerful Martial Saint rarely shows up.
Lin Ye still remembered that when he heard about this magical power, the first thing that came to his mind was the Sword Manual of Exorcism and the Sunflower Manual.
If you want to practice this skill, you must castrate yourself first.
After castrating himself and practicing the Sunflower Manual, his strength increased dramatically, which is similar to this magical power.
"I don't know how much time has passed. Will the black wooden man appear again?"
The time limit for the third picture is one year. Now the arena has not disappeared yet. There is anticipation in Lin Ye's eyes. If the white wooden man appears again, he might be able to comprehend the "first strike" magical power.
The Yutian Sword is extremely powerful, but it is a Taoist magical power after all, and has a fatal flaw, which is that it takes time to cast the spell. When facing an opponent who is not as powerful as you, or who looks down on you, you must give yourself enough time to cast the Yutian Sword.
But if the opponent attacks first, even if he can shorten the casting time of the Yutian Sword, it is impossible for a Martial Saint-level warrior to give him this opportunity.
The enemies that I will face in the future will definitely be at the level of Martial Saint.
In this case, "first strike" and "last arrival" are actually more useful than the Yutian Sword.
As Lin Ye looked expectantly, changes occurred on the stage.
Just looking at the arena that was getting bigger and blurry, the anticipation in Lin Ye's eyes turned into regret.
The opportunity is gone.
The arena disappeared, and Lin Ye returned to the platform.
The two lines of words on the stone wall also disappeared.
"Now let's look at the fourth painting and see what it can bring to me."
Although he felt a little regretful for losing the opportunity to comprehend the "first strike", Lin Ye immediately adjusted his mindset and looked forward to the fourth pattern.
The third pattern brings such a great harvest, what about the fourth pattern?
According to Xu Liben, once one observes the fourth pattern, one can directly break through to the realm of Martial Saint.
Ten breaths later, there was no change on the stone wall.
There was a look of doubt on Lin Ye's face.
After a hundred breaths, the stone wall still did not change, and Lin Ye frowned slightly.
A quarter of an hour later, just when Lin Ye was thinking about whether to raise the platform a little, the stone wall finally changed.
Looking at the new pattern that appeared on the stone wall, Lin Ye opened his mouth slightly and his expression became extremely strange.
