After chatting with his parents for a while, and finally making an appointment to meet and rendezvous tomorrow, Chen Mochuan hung up the video call.
Turning off the screen of the terminal, he didn't waste any time and stood up Spirit Pivot Primordial Stance to Spirit-Inducing Body Tempering directly in the living room.
After spending two hours standing in the stance to raise his energy and blood to 8.76, he put away the stance, adjusted his breath briefly, and then sinking his consciousness into his mind again, he started Mind Martial Drill.
In the afternoon, under the guidance of Han Zhen and Lin Hong, he gained some new insights into the use of strength, and he vaguely felt that he was only just one step away from understanding Neutralizing Force.
But when he was sparring with the two teachers, although their attacks looked sharp, they were still teaching instructors and could not really simulate the real murderous intent, which made him feel that it was a bit unsatisfactory.
Now it is time to take advantage of the fight with Ferocious Beast to practice and confirm what I think and understand in my heart.
The figure of Chen Mochuan appeared on the Pedestrian Street constructed by Mind Martial Drill. Not far away, the two cubs Steel-Backed Wild Boar and Iron-Claw Badger, which had fought with him countless times, also condensed their figures at the same time.
Their scarlet eyes locked onto him instantly, and they roared menacingly.
In the past few days, Chen Mochuan has lost count of how many times he has "died" under the claws of these two beasts. Thirty times? Or forty times?
Even though Mental Power has improved a lot in strength after being upgraded, the two strong Ferocious Beasts, each good at offense and defense, can form a perfect complementary force. Their threat is by no means a simple one plus one equals two. He can only kill one of them at most, and then he will be harvested by the other Ferocious Beast.
Fortunately, with his current Mental Power strength, although the pain he suffered after death in Mind Martial Drill has not eased, the recovery speed from mental trauma has been far faster than before.
Nowadays, I "die" seven or eight times a day, but Mental Power is consumed, and my body is not seriously injured. After a good sleep, I will be back to normal the next day.
Facing Ferocious Beast who was running towards him, Chen Mochuan rushed towards him without fear.
More than an hour passed.
Chen Mochuan, who was sweating profusely, returned to reality. The severe phantom pain that had just been disemboweled by Iron-Claw Badger had not completely dissipated. No matter how strong his mental will was, his body would inevitably twitch slightly unconsciously.
This was the fifth time today that he had experienced the terror of death, but accordingly, his performance in the battle was getting better and better after being tempered.
In the recent two Mind Martial Drills, he even managed to die together with the two Ferocious Beasts. Neither side survived, so it was considered a tie.
After taking some time to heal the mental trauma caused by death, Chen Mochuan immediately gathered his mind and couldn't wait to start another Mind Martial Drill game.
In the few fights just now, as he hit Mountain-Collapsing Fist's killer move "Piercing Stone" again and again, the mysterious feeling of using strength became more and more obvious.
He can clearly realize that he is only a little "opportunity" away from truly comprehending the Neutralizing Force of "Hard-Soft Harmonization", and he must strike while the iron is hot!
Looking at the two Ferocious Beasts that appeared in front of him again, his eyes were blazing, his fighting spirit aroused, and he took the lead in launching an attack!
The battle broke out in an instant.
As always, Iron-Claw Badger was the first to attack with its ghostly speed. It lowered its limbs and turned into a gray shadow. It did not attack in a straight line, but swept sideways at an extremely tricky angle. Its sharp front paws flashed with cold light and dug straight into Chen Mochuan's waist and abdomen, which was sinister and deadly.
The Steel-Backed Wild Boar cub let out a low growl, kicked the ground with all four hooves, and followed closely behind, like a small tank that started slightly slowly but was unstoppable. It slightly adjusted its direction to block Chen Mochuan's possible lateral dodge space, and pointed its fangs forward, preparing to use a brutal collision to force him to catch or fall into a pincer attack.
Faced with this tacitly coordinated siege, Chen Mochuan was as calm as an ancient well, and Thunder-Striding Step exploded under his feet. His body suddenly retreated to the side and back, and the tip of Iron-Claw Badger's claws brushed against the skirt of his clothes, and he returned without success.
At the same time, he twisted his waist, his right arm was like a whip, and he swept the tail of Tiger Fiend Fist with Peiran Clear Force, and hit hard on the thick shoulder blade of Steel-Backed Wild Boar who just rushed to his side.
"Bang!"
There was a dull sound of impact, and the wild boar was slightly staggered by the powerful and heavy punch. Its momentum slowed down slightly, and it let out a dissatisfied roar. Chen Mochuan used the force of the counterattack to jump back lightly, and once again opened up some distance.
He did not rush to use the huge consumption of "Piercing Stone", but began to consciously adjust his breathing and exertion.
"Clear Force is fierce, bursting out from the outside; Dark Force is feminine, penetrating inside..." Teacher Han Zhen's words echoed in my mind.
He tried to incorporate more understanding and application of Dark Force into his ordinary fist and kick attacks.
A punch was thrown, and the moment the punch touched the wild boar's skin, Clear Force penetrated three points first, and then Dark Force followed quietly like a poisonous snake, trying to get under its skin.
However, there is still a slight lag in the connection between the two forces, which is more like a mechanical superposition, just like oil and water. Although they can coexist for a short time, they do not truly blend.
Iron-Claw Badger didn't give him time to comprehend it carefully. He missed the target and bounced off the ground. He jumped on him again, waving his claws in a dazzling afterimage, specializing in the lower three lanes and key joints, forcing Chen Mochuan to use deft footwork to deal with Foundation Building Fist's defensive stance.
"Hard-Soft Harmonization... interpenetrate and transform into each other..." The scene demonstrated by teacher Lin Hong came to mind.
At the moment when he blocked Iron-Claw Badger's claw attack, Chen Mochuan was so blessed that he did not simply use Clear Force to block, nor did he purely use Dark Force to relieve force.
His forearm muscles trembled subtly, and the strength of the block underwent strange changes at the moment of contact...
The outward strength quietly retracted by three points and turned into a flexible support; but the inner softness burst out at the core, giving birth to a short and powerful thrust!
"Tsk!"
Iron-Claw Badger was staggered by this strange force, and his offensive was momentarily disorganized.
Although this change was extremely subtle and lasted less than half a second, it made Chen Mochuan's eyes light up!
That's what it feels like!
It is no longer the rigid "sequential" or "overlapping" of Clear Force and Dark Force, but at the same moment when they exert force, the two begin to transform into each other, and there is me in you!
The battle continued, and Chen Mochuan began to try more boldly.
He no longer deliberately distinguishes which punch to use Clear Force and which move to use Dark Force, but devotes all his attention to the most authentic mobilization and integration of the internal power of the body.
Gradually, his boxing style underwent subtle changes.
In the fierce Tiger Fiend Fist, there is a hint of elusive roundness and toughness; in the calm Foundation Building Fist, there are occasional bursts of heart-stopping and penetrating Dark Force; in every Mountain-Collapsing Fist, there is a shadow of both strength and softness.
His figure became more and more calm under the attack of two Ferocious Beast. Although it was still thrilling, every dodge and counterattack seemed to be more efficient than before, and the consumption became smaller.
The opportunity appeared after an exquisite move!
Chen Mochuan used a feint attack to induce Steel-Backed Wild Boar to launch a fierce straight-line collision.
The moment the wild boar lowered its head and accelerated, the Thunder-Striding Step under his feet exploded with all its strength, and his body flashed sideways to the side and front of the wild boar like a ghost, almost passing by the pair of ferocious fangs!
The wild boar rushed forward due to its inertia, exposing the relatively fragile sides of its neck to the attack range of Chen Mochuan!
At the same time, the scream of Iron-Claw Badger came from the side and rear. It was obviously aware of the danger of its companions and was rushing to the rescue frantically!
Attack from the front and back, there is no time to attack!
But in Chen Mochuan's eyes at this moment, there was only the slightly pulsating blood vessels on the wild boar's neck.
All the distracting thoughts, all the fears, the experience accumulated from countless deaths in the past few days, the earnest teachings of the two teachers, and the feeling of "Hard-Soft Harmonization" that has become increasingly clear after countless attempts...
At this moment, it was like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea, all concentrated on the right fist he was about to swing!
There is no deliberate accumulation of energy and no complicated moves changes.
He just followed the body's most instinctive and smooth force-generating trajectory, twisting his waist and spine like a dragon, the explosive power of the muscles, the support of the muscles and bones, the driving force of the flow of Qi and blood, the blessing of warmth and nourishment Spirit Power, and the commanding power of the spiritual will that has touched the threshold in countless attempts... all gathered together!
Clear Force and Dark Force are no longer two distinct streams.
In the process of the fists breaking through the air, they seemed to be kneaded and stirred by a pair of invisible big hands. In the end, they blended together and could no longer be distinguished from each other. The strength contained the penetration and change of softness, and the softness was wrapped in the explosion and penetration of strength!
A new, integrated force was born...
Mountain-Collapsing Fist·Piercing Stone!
But this "Piercing Stone" is no longer that "Piercing Stone"!
"Wha--!"
The sound of the fist cutting through the air was so sharp that it even caused a faint sonic boom! Chen Mochuan's right fist seemed to be no longer made of flesh and blood, but an indestructible spiral drill that had been tempered for thousands of times!
"Pfft!"
There was a penetrating sound that was far softer than any before, but more heart-wrenching.
The Steel-Backed Wild Boar cub's tough skin and strong muscles that could withstand the chops of ordinary swords were pierced by the punch containing Neutralizing Force like butter cut by a hot knife without any hindrance! The fist sank into the wild boar's neck up to the wrist, accurately shattering its neck bones and main blood vessels!
The wild boar's huge body stiffened suddenly, and its momentum came to an abrupt halt. The fierce light in its small scarlet eyes quickly dimmed, replaced by confusion and deathly silence.
It couldn't even let out a miserable howl, as if all its bones had been ripped out, it suddenly fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust, and made no more noise.
Kill with one blow!
And at the same moment when the wild boar died, Chen Mochuan had a sudden realization in his heart:
This style contains "Piercing Stone" of Neutralizing Force. Compared with my previous simple fusion of Clear Force and Dark Force, it is not only more powerful and penetrating, but also consumes less and exerts force more smoothly and naturally.
The most important thing is that every time he hit "Piercing Stone" where the two powers were combined, his energy and blood would inevitably shake violently for a moment when the fist power broke out. He needed an extremely short period of time to regain his energy and blood and adjust his posture. This was often a slight flaw in high-level duels.
But this time, Neutralizing Force went smoothly, and after the force was released, the blood flow was still smooth and smooth, without any feeling of stagnation.
He had no time to appreciate this feeling because his perception of the crisis had reached its peak!
Almost at the same time as the wild boar died, a fierce evil wind hit his side!
It's Iron-Claw Badger! It took advantage of the moment Chen Mochuan punched to kill the wild boar, and rushed forward. The iron claws that shone with cold light were aimed at Chen Mochuan's temple!
Chen Mochuan felt extremely calm in his heart. Feeling the crisis beside him, he immediately pulled out his right arm that penetrated the wild boar's neck and brought out a warm rain of blood to his side to block Iron-Claw Badger's vision.
Then he quickly slid to the other side, his head barely avoiding Iron-Claw Badger's fatal claw attack!
However, Iron-Claw Badger's attack was a fatal blow that had been prepared for a long time, and its speed and cunning reached the extreme.
Chen Mochuan Although he avoided the vital part of his head, the outside of his left arm was still scratched by the sharp claw tip!
"Tear--!"
The sleeve was broken, and a long and narrow wound instantly appeared on his left arm. Blood immediately gushed out and flowed down the arm. In an instant, half of the sleeve was dyed red, and dripped to the ground.
Severe pain came, but Chen Mochuan didn't even frown.
In the life-and-death fight, this little pain made him more focused and his eyes calmer.
Iron-Claw Badger failed to complete the attack. After landing, he paused slightly, bared his teeth and let out a threatening growl, then pounced again!
Chen Mochuan gave a low shout, and faced the rushing Iron-Claw Badger, he did not dodge or avoid it!
He had just used his right arm to kill a wild boar, and his left arm was injured and bleeding. He seemed to be at a disadvantage. But at this moment, his heart was clear, and the feeling of Neutralizing Force he had just realized was still flowing on the edge of his fist.
The moment Iron-Claw Badger jumped in front of him and thrust out both claws, Chen Mochuan suddenly dwarfed and jumped out almost close to the ground! He avoided the claw attack from Iron-Claw Badger's front and instantly cut into the empty door under his belly!
At the same time, his injured left arm did not hang down. Instead, he raised it upward at a strange angle. His five fingers were pressed together like a bird's beak. It seemed to be gentle, but it was precisely placed on Iron-Claw Badger's soft abdomen! At this point, Neutralizing Force quietly penetrated!
Iron-Claw Badger was shaken all over, his fighting movements suddenly deformed, and he let out a painful scream.
Chen Mochuan took advantage of the moment when his body was unbalanced and his old strength was exhausted. His right fist, which was already ready to strike, moved from bottom to top, like a furious dragon ascending to the sky. A Tiger Fiend Fist Sky Cannon, which was nothing fancy but condensed all the strength and understanding at the moment, hit Iron-Claw Badger's jaw solidly!
"Crack!"
There was a clear sound of bone cracking, and Iron-Claw Badger's head was thrown upwards by the violent punch. His whole body was sent flying upwards, and then he fell heavily to the ground. His limbs twitched a few times, and then stopped moving. Only the blood that continuously overflowed from his mouth and nose proved the passage of his life.
Chen Mochuan was panting violently, with a bright smile on his face.
Win!
For the first time, he survived the Mind Martial Drill that faced these two Ferocious Beasts at the same time!
Neutralizing Force... Finally!
