Jiang Liu discovered that the best way to use the Saintly Sky Strike is to wait a while after the initial attack, instead of continuously increasing the attack power.
After letting the opponent adapt, suddenly increase the attack power. This will lull the enemy into a false sense of security.
The most important point is that doing this can protect one's Divine Sense from backlash.
Of course, for ordinary martial artists, there is no need to go to so much trouble, because as far as Jiang Liu knows, no one has yet appeared whose mental strength surpasses his own.
Even Flowing Cloud Matriarch himself admitted that her spiritual cultivation was lower than his own.
Of course, given Jiang Liu's consistent personality, he would definitely need to figure things out before taking any action.
However, spiritual cultivation is different from physical cultivation; it can be revealed at any time.
Without using mental power to attack or Divine Sense to detect, it is completely undetectable.
That's why Jiang Liu came up with the idea of first probing the enemy before launching a surprise attack.
Jiang Liu summoned his attendant disciple and instructed him to have the two Exotic Beast carried away before continuing his cultivation there.
This time, he plans to cultivate Nebula Extinction because Jiang Liu discovered that after advancing to the Peak Grandmaster, his spiritual power seems to be able to support him in freely unleashing Nebula Extinction.
He hadn't had the time or place to practice before, so he's only now preparing to start practicing this move.
Once the Nebula Extinction is successfully cultivated, its effectiveness against attacks from Peak Grandmaster may be greatly reduced, and it may even fail to break through their defenses.
However, mental attacks should be able to cause damage, especially when combined with the Saintly Sky Strike and the ability to devour one's own mental energy.
Jiang Liu couldn't believe that Lu Tianheng could withstand such a barrage of mental attacks.
Jiang Liu hadn't used the Saintly Sky Strike before because he didn't dare to risk it easily. After all, his mental strength had just advanced to the Ultimate Peak Grandmaster, and he didn't know how big the gap was between him and Lu Tianheng.
Now that Jiang Liu knows the gap between his mental strength and Lu Tianheng's, he can confidently use his mental strength to attack him.
If Jiang Liu runs into Lu Tianheng again, Jiang Liu will definitely give him a big surprise.
He was so happy to have him intercept him.
Jiang Liu is definitely the kind of person who, if he had a grudge and could have defeated someone in a fight, would have taken revenge on the spot. If he couldn't, he would have thought of other ways to get revenge.
Compared to Cloudfall Strike, Nebula Extinction is not simply an additional mental attack.
Although Cloudfall Strike is also a physical attack, the biggest difference between it and Nebula Extinction is that Cloudfall Strike inflicts damage from the outside in.
The Nebula Extinction's wounds, however, are from the inside out, which is the essential difference between the two attacks.
It can be said that Nebula Extinction's physical attacks were combined with his mental attacks.
If Nebula Extinction's mental attack fails to kill the enemy in one hit, then finish them off with a physical attack.
Therefore, if you use Nebula Extinction's mental power to break through the enemy's defenses, then you can say that they can only wait to die!
Because the physical attacks from Nebula Extinction will be even more intense than those from Cloudfall Strike.
However, if Nebula Extinction's mental attacks cannot break through the defense, there is no need to be afraid, because Nebula Extinction's physical attacks can be combined with mental attacks to break through the enemy's defense.
That's why Jiang Liu liked this last move so much when he saw it; after all, the way it was executed was exactly what Jiang Liu wanted.
If Jiang Liu hadn't been hampered by his lack of mental strength at the time, he probably would have started cultivating long ago.
But it's not too late now. If you master this move, at least when you can't win a fight, you'll have an extra layer of protection when you have to escape.
Moreover, Nebula Extinction's attack methods are very unpredictable, and when combined with Nebula Shrunken Earth movement technique, it is simply seamless.
Therefore, among the four moves of Nebula Extinction, Nebula Shrunken Earth and Nebula Extinction are the best combination.
As for Starfall and Cloudfall Strike, Jiang Liu believed they were merely substitute moves when Nebula Extinction could not be used.
Actually, Jiang Liu misunderstood. These two moves each have their own uses. After all, not everyone's mental strength is as abnormal as Jiang Liu's.
His physical strength was only at the Grandmaster, but his mental strength cultivation surpassed that of Peak Grandmaster. Who can do that?
Whether it's Nebula Extinction or Saintly Sky Strike, the primary prerequisite is sufficient mental strength.
And that is the biggest hurdle. Even if you are given the moves and techniques, it will be useless if your mental strength cultivation cannot keep up.
Therefore, Jiang Liu now feels that Starfall and Cloudfall Strike are like substitute moves for Nebula Extinction.
The Starfall technique consumes far less mental energy when used.
The Cloudfall Strike are even less of a concern; they only consume vital energy, which is practically negligible for Jiang Liu.
Jiang Liu has now practiced Nebula Extinction, and after using it only once, he can clearly feel the Spirit Power Particles in his Divine Sense sea decreasing.
This shows that although this move is extremely powerful, it also consumes a lot of energy.
Jiang Liu sat cross-legged on the ground, meditating to replenish the energy depleted from his previous cultivation.
As he activated the Saintly Sky Art, strands of primordial Essence Particles and Spirit Power Particles surged wildly towards Jiang Liu's body.
Cultivating at the Flowing Cloud Sect, those special Essence Particles are very rare; if Jiang Liu doesn't pay special attention, he won't even notice them.
Before long, Jiang Liu had replenished the energy he had used up during his cultivation.
Following the techniques of Nebula Extinction, Jiang Liu unleashed a series of mental storms around Jiang Liu body, causing Jiang Liu entire figure to begin to sway.
Jiang Liu's movements became faster and faster, and soon an afterimage that was invisible to the naked eye appeared.
Jiang Liu's entire figure began to dart east and west, becoming invisible to the naked eye, leaving only afterimages on the square.
Most importantly, there is an invisible line that continues to spread into the distance.
This was Jiang Liu testing the attack range of Nebula Extinction to see just how far it would go.
However, as the attack range increased, Jiang Liu could clearly feel that his control over this line was weakening.
Especially after a certain distance, it is completely out of control.
The limit for this distance is one thousand meters. Beyond one thousand meters, the Nebula Extinction can be considered completely out of control.
However, Jiang Liu believed that as his mental strength improved, this attack range would also increase. For now, it was more than enough.
At this moment, the Grandmaster Elder who was guarding outside the courtyard was about to come looking for Jiang Liu when he was surprised to see the figure on the training square.
Even she couldn't catch a glimpse of Jiang Liu; the oppressive aura emanating from Jiang Liu made her tremble.
She knew this was because Jiang Liu's strength far surpassed hers, but she dared not use her Divine Sense to probe Jiang Liu.
Because Flowing Cloud Matriarch had already instructed that if one were to rashly investigate and be unconsciously attacked by Jiang Liu's Divine Sense, the injuries would likely take a long time to heal.
