Chapter 680: The Spear of Deathly Thorns
Ma Chao's exaggerated movement speed surprised Scathach. It was not that she couldn't react, but that Ma Chao had already touched the threshold of breaking through the realm.
There are three levels: internal Qi leaving the body, half breaking the boundary, and internal Qi breaking the boundary. In the absence of cloud energy, it can almost be said that they are one step at a time.
The most special one is the state of half-breaking the boundary.
The meaning of half-breaking the boundary is very obvious, that is, it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. Basically, as long as you break through the boundary successfully once, the rest is just a matter of patience and perseverance, and sooner or later you will be able to reach the level of breaking through the boundary anytime and anywhere.
Breaking the boundary is different from other levels, but it is a state of transcending the limitations of heaven and earth.
The highest limit of heaven and earth is 100. Your original level is 97 or 98, and it reaches 101 or 102 in an instant. This is actually called breaking the boundary, but it requires you to burst out with all your strength.
Once you get hurt or something, you're basically useless and can't get into that state beyond your limits anymore.
This is the biggest difference between half-breaking the boundary and breaking the boundary.
As long as you enter once, the road ahead will be smooth.
However, some people walk fast, and some walk slowly. For example, after Pei Yuanqing broke through the boundary for the first time , he was able to stabilize this state the next day.
Another example is Qin Qiong. He has been in the realm-breaking state for five or six years, but his internal energy is still wandering outside his body. He can't even reach the threshold of the second transformation, but his strength is constantly improving.
As for Lu Bu, his normal level is around 105. When his heart calamity erupts, there is no upper limit. When there is no cloud energy, everyone he sees is trash.
Ma Chao is now jumping back and forth between 99 and 100, but sometimes his strength can reach 101.
Not to mention the reactions of the people off the field, Cu Chulainn, who was under pressure from Ma Chao, did not dare to be careless at all.
Before the fierce speed approached, Cu Chulainn had already felt the terrifying threat and knew that he could not keep up with Ma Chao's speed.
Cu Chulainn threw away the fancy four-piece suit, and the Piercing Deaththorn Spear appeared in his hand.
He is in the state of another spearman Diarmuid blessed by projection magic. In this way, he can obtain some of the opponent's attribute bonuses, making his various values rise wildly, and he can also use the opponent's treasure.
If he could only COS people with similar abilities, he would have COSed Scathach or King Arthur long ago.
But when it came to this life-and-death moment, he still only believed in himself.
After the blessing was removed, Cu Chulainn's speed became even slower and he could not keep up with Ma Chao's speed.
But even so, he managed to avoid Ma Chao's thundering attack.
After dodging with his head turned sideways, Cu Chulainn stabbed out with his spear instantly.
"Piercing Deaththorn Spear"
At that moment, Ma Chao felt that a great terror was about to befall him. He immediately leaped backwards, holding the tiger-head spear in his hand across his chest.
This was the move that annoyed him the most when he was sparring with Cu Chulainn. The law of causality made no sense at all.
The cause of stabbing occurs first, and then the result of attacking is produced. What kind of bullshit logic is this?
Sure enough, the next moment, Ma Chao was pierced through and knocked away by the huge force.
Cu Chulainn stayed where he was and kept attacking, but Ma Chao was constantly attacked and could only parry the illusory attacks awkwardly.
Relying on his quick reflexes, which had been honed from being abused by powerful opponents, Ma Chao was able to stop Cu Chulainn's attacks every time.
"The guy from Great Britain used a cause-and-effect attack. The cause and effect involved in this secret technique is very magical and is usually the specialty of immortals. And seeing how relaxed he looks, he should be able to do it even more absolutely."
"For example, stabbing your heart first and then attacking you."
Tong Yuan performed his duty as an explainer diligently. Being knowledgeable and experienced, he could certainly understand the logic behind Cu Chulainn's move. However, although he knew it, he could not think of any good solution for the moment.
The officers and generals of the Han Dynasty were very interested in this novel attack mode.
This attack mode, which was very similar to that of immortals, opened their eyes. After all, the immortals had weak combat power, so no matter how strange their methods were, they could just resist and chop off the immortals' heads.
The one who used this magical method was a warrior whose internal energy was out of his body. For a moment, everyone was thinking about how to deal with this attack.
"Is this his method of divine cultivation?" Dian Wei scratched his head. He was a little confused, but if Ma Chao could defend him, then naturally he could too. Besides, he didn't feel any pressure at all, so he thought it was not a big problem. However, he still looked at Lu Bu curiously and asked.
"I'll give it a try," Lu Bu said thoughtfully, touching his chin.
When one reaches Lu Bu's level, he will be proficient in everything. Especially when he read the strengths of hundreds of schools and created a special technique for Lu Lingqi, his experience reached a new level.
Lu Bu pointed his finger tentatively and Dian Wei looked up in surprise.
This level of secret technique can be learned with just one look. This Lu Bu has become even stronger.
“No, although I can rely on the powerful divine simulation, I can’t achieve the same level as the other party!” Lu Bu frowned and shook his head.
He could feel that this was a very novel path, but he was totally unsuitable for it.
“Marquis Wen, you have already broken your fate, and you still want to follow the path of destiny. It’s outrageous that you can do it by force!” Zhang Jue was speechless as he watched Lu Bu forcibly achieve the same effect.
There are many immortals who use this kind of method of fate and destiny, but Zhang Jue is very clear about the disadvantages of this method.
You accept the gift of cause and effect, but cause and effect has already secretly marked the price for everything.
The other party's inability to break through the boundary is closely related to his frequent manipulation of cause and effect.
However, if the other party can enter the realm of breakthrough in this state, he must be a super macho man.
“This is impossible!”
Just when Zhang Jue was complaining in his heart, he suddenly saw an even more surprising scene: Zhao Yun actually used it as well.
"This method doesn't seem to have much meaning. The cost is a bit too much for me!"
Zhao Yun looked at the holes on the ground and shook his head. This level of consumption was enough for him to kill the enemy with a direct legion attack. However, it only resulted in a hole on the ground. It simply didn't make sense.
"Master Julu, why is it impossible?" Zhao Yun looked at Zhang Jiao in confusion.
As a floor tile among the wise men, Zhao Yun did not see Zhang Jue's identity. In this regard, Lu Bu felt superior.
Although he knew nothing, he was told directly that Zhang Julu was Zhang Jiao himself.
“To put it bluntly, this method is a divine cultivation method, but General Zhao, your will…” Zhang Jue hesitated to speak.
Zhao Yun coughed lightly and ended the topic.
He knew what Zhang Jue wanted to say, so he refused to discuss the topic.
He didn't know why he couldn't exert his own strength, otherwise the problem wouldn't have been delayed until now.
