A True Warrior
"Sixth move, Finger Crash. 60 psionic energy pathways!"
"Psionic energy is channeled into the arm, and all the power of the body is concentrated in the fingers. The hardened fingertips unleash an extremely fast strike with power that can easily penetrate the human body, even... steel! In terms of sheer destructive power, this is the strongest Killing Move that breaks through the entire body from a single point."
The dark figure gently raised its arm, turned towards Mu Fan, and assumed an offensive stance.
Here we go again!
Mu Fan spread his arms wide, staring intently at the figure opposite him.
The boy's face was full of fighting spirit. Let him see just how powerful this strongest Killing Move really is!
The dark figure's footsteps pounded the ground rapidly.
Charge!
The speed instantly overwhelmed Mu Fan, leaving him with nowhere to hide from the start.
Is this meant for me to experience the power of the "Finger Collapse" technique?
Dark Breath covered his eyes, and his vision was barely able to catch the afterimage of the other person.
It's here!
Mu Fan flicked his right hand, his arm began to twist unconsciously, and he unleashed a fierce punch with a move that was extremely close to the fourth move, the Stone Piercing Fist.
It spun around and struck straight at the opponent.
The dark figure showed no intention of attacking any other part of the body; it simply attacked straight at the target!
The two fists are about to clash!
A calm voice rang out. "Derivative Technique, Finger Shattering · Rapid Fire!"
The shadowy figure's fist suddenly flattened into a palm, then the middle finger was pressed down by the thumb, and with a flick of the wrist, it sprang out at a speed invisible to the naked eye!
Collapse!
Mu Fan's fist felt as if it had been hit by a hand cannon, instantly going numb. His arm was violently thrown back uncontrollably, accompanied by a slight twist of his body.
The door is wide open!
The dark figure suddenly pulled his fists to his waist and abdomen.
Mu Fan only saw a wave that resembled the release of the fourth move, but this time it was completely opposite; the ripples in the skin and muscles spread from the shoulders to the wrists.
An energy that had been suppressed to the extreme surged out from the shoulder, causing an exaggerated surging in the arm. At this moment, the arm was like a channel of energy, but it could not withstand the sudden surge of energy, so a bulge could be seen flowing from the shoulder to the palm in an instant.
Time slowed down at that moment, and a strange expansion appeared at the fingertip, with even the airflow compressed and bursting open.
"Derivative Technique, Finger Shattering · Ten Warheads"
Bang!
The bullet left the barrel, but instead of a metal bullet, it was the tip of those ten swollen fingers.
Mu Fan tried to twist his body, but the ten fingers, moving with bullet-like speed, touched his waist and abdomen at a speed he could not avoid.
Puff puff puff!
In an instant, the sound of bullets entering bodies rang out.
Heh...
Mu Fan's mouth opened involuntarily, his eyes became bloodshot, but he could only let out a suppressed roar of pain.
Bang!
All ten fingers were inserted into Mu Fan's body. At this moment, a shock came from the wrist of the black figure. It was the residual force of the impact that was transmitted to the body through the wrist that was stuck outside the body.
Mu Fan's body was thrown back violently, and blood gushed out from the ten deep holes in his body.
However, the shadowy figure's movements were not yet over. Its right arm suddenly swung back, and its left leg slammed heavily onto the ground.
When this action occurred, Mu Fan, who was in extreme pain, widened his eyes. This action...
How similar it is to his Killing Move!
Violent Thrust - Hand Assassination!?
Bing Bing voice entered his ears, and under the enhancement of the Dark Breath, his mental vision felt a heavy and terrifying aura completely concentrated on the right hand of the shadowy figure.
With four fingers together and the thumb tucked inward.
When that exaggerated swelling of the fingertips reappeared, the expected sound came, but this time it was two sentences in a row:
"Derivative Technique, Charge Step · Assault!"
"Layered Derivative Technique, Finger Shattering · Scalpel!"
A sense of despair welled up from the depths of his heart. Even with Mu Fan's perception Li Du, he could only see that the opponent was still in the same bent-over, charging-up state just a second ago.
The next second, he only saw that pitch-black figure appear on his chest.
The moment the four fingers touched the sternum, it was as effortless as a hot knife cutting into cheese.
It pierced through his left chest; Mu Fan didn't even have time to open his mouth...
The entire arm pierced through his heart in an instant!
A brain deprived of blood supply may retain a few seconds of thought before succumbing to darkness.
Mu Fan, who was in mid-air, was pushed more than ten meters by an arm that pierced his heart before he came to a stop.
With his left hand on Mu Fan's shoulder, he gently withdrew his right hand from Mu Fan's chest.
With a thud, Mu Fan, lifeless, collapsed to his knees and vanished into a cloud of starlight.
Like stardust, it condensed and reappeared, still in that dazed pose in Mu Fan's eyes.
The movements are almost identical, but one uses the weakness created by the Blood-colored Vision to capture and burst out instantly.
Another method involves combining two techniques enhanced by psionic energy to unleash a thunderous strike with power exceeding human limits.
Mu Fan suddenly let out a long breath.
So this is what it feels like to be stabbed or killed by your own hand.
The demonstration just now, where he died from his own Killing Move, gave Mu Fan a strange feeling.
Perhaps those who died at their own hands also felt this kind of despair.
"Bang Finger, training movement, imprint."
This time the time was shortened by half because the psionic energy lines of the broken fingers were all concentrated on both hands, with 6 lines taking care of each finger, and the flow lines were thicker than before.
This really does compress all the maximum energy into the fingers.
After Mu Fan sensed the end of the sixth technique's instruction, the dark figure in front of him suddenly disappeared, and then the world in front of him twisted, involuntarily drawing Mu Fan's spirit into it.
The intense dizziness made it difficult for Mu Fan to see the scenery in front of him. After about five or six seconds, Mu Fan felt the hand leave his head, and then he looked up ahead.
The tall figure, seemingly integrated with time and space, stood quietly before Mu Fan.
The face hidden in the darkness was still not visible; all that could be seen were two faint green hues.
"How does the Six Forms feel?"
"Powerful, Instructor, I can't find any more words to describe it," Mu Fan said honestly.
"This is my understanding of combat, in other words, it's the ultimate training that extends the body's functions in six directions. Mastering all six techniques is simply impossible for you right now. I suggest you choose two techniques that don't conflict and practice them in sequence."
"No conflict?"
"For example, you can't cultivate both flexibility and steel at the same time. All the training methods are imprinted in your mind. What you need to do is master and become proficient through constant practice. The derivative techniques of each move are ever-changing, and you have to find the mystery within yourself. Remember what I said: before you have mastered one move, do not try to learn a second move. That will only make you a hybrid."
Mu Fan bowed and nodded.
"I won't say much about weapons, but I can tell you that once you find the Fei Lei and wield your true weapon, the Redemption Seven Stages is far more powerful than the Six Styles!"
Looking at Mu Fan, the Fighter finally revealed a hint of relief and barely perceptible weariness in his voice.
"Unlike Black, my unique power is independent of this world. The recent inscription has taken a heavy toll on me, and I will fall into a deep slumber. The road ahead is fraught with hardship; may you always remain true to your heart. When you find the Fei Lei, you can awaken me through Black. On that day, you will become a true... warrior!"
A true... samurai?
Mu Fan felt that Mo Handa's words had a slight pause, as if he had deliberately omitted the words that came before "warrior".
Instructor, what was that word you didn't say?
He wanted to ask a question, but Mo Handa turned and gradually disappeared into the shadows.
And so, right before Mu Fan's eyes, her figure gradually became transparent and disappeared, leaving only a sighing sentence behind.
"Thirty years of light, forty years of darkness, banished souls, I come from the shadows..."
