Everyone didn't even see the sword light clearly, if this sword cut down, Lin Ming's head would have been split in two!
Before people could even gasp in shock, Zhang Guanyu's sword had already fallen empty.
Lin Ming's back seemed to have grown eyes, and in the instant the sword fell, he made a very strange move forward, as if blown by the wind like a willow branch, avoiding Zhang Guanyu's sword with precision.
"Hmm!"
Zhang Guanyu's inevitable sword fell empty, he didn't believe it, and raised his sword to stab again!
"Hehehehe!"
In an instant, Zhang Guanyu didn't know how many swords he had stabbed, his sword had completely merged into the wind, only to see a faint and blurry sword light, the sword body had completely disappeared!
Only seeing the sword's light but not the sword itself is already the highest state of using a sword, yet Zhang Guanyu's sword was such that even its light couldn't be seen!
Such a terrifying speed of the sword light, enveloped Lin Ming from all sides, but in this instant, Lin Ming's figure also became blurred, as if his body was surrounded by a series of thick residual shadows!
Lin Ming, who was in the residual shadow, seemed to have moved, yet seemed not to have moved. However, without a doubt, Zhang Guanyu's sword did not pierce him at all!
"What...what's going on?" Murong Zi, who was hiding in the corner watching the final battle, was stunned. Lin Ming was clearly surrounded by such dense sword lights, but he didn't have a single hair out of place!
"What's going on? Of course, they all dodged!" Bai Jingyun took a deep breath and tried to make her voice sound calm.
Lin Ming's movement skills are too terrifying!
Masters of martial arts all know that relying solely on speed is not enough to completely dodge the dense and chaotic sword lights. When the sword speed reaches its limit, the time difference between each sword light becomes negligible, and the sword lights become densely packed and disorderly, with no rules or blind spots. Wanting to dodge such sword lights, relying solely on speed is fundamentally insufficient; speeding up might even lead to colliding with the sword lights!
To be able to navigate freely in such a sword light, it not only requires accurate eyesight and sharp instantaneous judgment, but also requires control of the body's movements to reach an extremely subtle level, with precise control over any part of the body. In an instant, make countless brief and rapid movements, so as to avoid the sword light!
The blurry afterimage beside Lin Ming was because he made too many short and swift movements in an instant. The one-tenth of a second visual residue left on people's irises!
This move is absolutely brilliant!
But Lin Ming, why did you have such a physique?
Among the young and outstanding people present, there were no shortage of those who had seen through to the human nature. What Bai Jingyun thought of, they also thought of. They were very clear that it was extremely difficult to navigate through such dense sword lights with ease.
"Who? Who said Lin Ming's speed was his weakness just now? Open your eyes and take a look, this is what you call 'weakness'?" The speaker was the fourth disciple of Tianyi Pavilion. He had thought that Lin Ming ranked sixth on the Ranking Stone last time. Now, after so many days have passed, Lin Ming's strength probably hasn't even caught up with his own yet. But now looking at it, his idea is simply a joke!
"How could this be? I remember Lin Ming was rarely mobile on the battlefield before, basically just a hard-hitting style, and he learned 'Basic Footwork', how could his speed have increased!?" The young master who previously thought Lin Ming's weakness was his speed couldn't believe what he was saying.
"You're kidding, right? Lin Ming's previous display of the 'Foundation Gun Technique' was weak? As for him rarely moving on the battlefield before, it's obviously because his previous opponents didn't require Lin Ming to reveal his terrifying skills."
A staunch supporter of Lin Ming responded eloquently.
Its aura is as still as a mountain, its power is astonishingly great, its true essence is extremely condensed, and at the same time, it also possesses unmatched speed. There isn't a single weak point, so how can one fight against such an abnormality?
The battle in the arena became increasingly fierce, with top-notch martial arts pitted against each other. Zhang Guanyu's sword moves became faster and more ferocious, with the sword lights intertwining, making it impossible to intervene!
Sword lights chopped the school grounds into a mess, Lin Ming's stone slab was already shattered beyond recognition, with the largest remaining pieces no bigger than a fingernail.
However, in such a stormy offensive, Lin Ming was always as leisurely as a stroll in the courtyard, his footsteps completely merged into the wind, and it was impossible to capture his exact position.
Zhang Guanyu's sword light seemed dense as a net, but there was always a before and after. Lin Ming was able to take advantage of this tiny time difference with ease. His movements were smooth and flowing, extremely fluent, as if he hadn't actively dodged the sword, but rather the sword wind had blown him away.
Murong Zi stared blankly, her eyes widening more and more, she muttered: "Impossible, that ox head is fierce, but the movement he chose is just the 'Basic Steps', how can the 'Basic Steps' have such speed?"
Murong Zi's question was also Bai Jingyun's question. She had always been curious about when Lin Ming learned such a powerful movement technique.
Just then, a clear and pleasant voice interjected: "Lin Ming used the 'Basic Step'.
Murong Zi turned his head and saw that it was Qin Xingxuan who spoke.
At this moment, Qin Xingxuan looked towards the center of the field, her eyes filled with admiration and praise.
"Basic Steps"? Impossible!" Murong Zi would rather die than believe it, she also had some understanding of "Basic Steps", Lin Ming's movement was completely different from Basic Steps, and what kind of abnormal speed did Basic Steps have?
However, Bai Jingyun suddenly discovered something at this time when Qin Xuan mentioned it. She looked at Lin Ming's movement again and was shocked in her heart. "Really... It's really the Basic Footwork! Lin Ming's every step is all the steps of the Basic Footwork, but he has shortened each step to the extreme, and his speed has also reached the extreme!"
"Yes, it is." Qin Xuan nodded.
Lin Ming's exhibition is indeed "Basic Steps", "Jin Peng Po Xū" focuses on the atmosphere and the rotation of the true yuan, there are no requirements for steps, in short, the body methods that win with steps are all unorthodox body methods, belonging to the side branches, truly powerful body methods rely on the atmosphere contained in the body method.
As for the pace, it is naturally up to one's own heart's desire, loving how to move and how to move. If a certain body method limits a martial artist's pace, then it must be a kind of restraint on the martial artist. With restraints, how can one possibly exhibit a carefree and leisurely body method?
Lin Ming had already grasped the intent of the wind, and for him, executing any footwork was the same. He chose to use the Basic Footwork only to conceal his true technique, the Golden Peng Breaking Void.
At such a fierce speed, both of them were greatly exhausted, especially Zhang Guanyu, whose movements were much bigger than Lin Ming's, and he was the one on the offensive, so his exhaustion was even greater. After dozens of breaths, Zhang Guanyu's true yuan was completely depleted, and just at that moment, Lin Ming suddenly took a step forward and thrust out with his spear!
"Clang!"
A piercing metallic collision rang out, and Zhang Guanyu, who was in a state of rapid motion, suddenly froze in place. His sword stood upright in front of him, directly blocking Lin Ming's gun.
Zhang Guanyu looked at Lin Ming with a shocked and uncertain expression. He had just been about to launch another attack, but Lin Ming suddenly thrust his spear towards Zhang's heart!
Under such a swift movement, Zhang Guanyu's dodging ability was very strong. He should have easily avoided the gun like Lin Ming did with his sword, but for some reason, Lin Ming's gun seemed to have calculated his trajectory and pierced his heart, forcing Zhang Guanyu to raise his sword to block it.
But how can a soft sword block a heavy spear?
Zhang Guanyu could only infuse all his true yuan into the sword, and as a result, this one sword blocked him, causing his qi and blood to churn and his true energy to become disordered.
"He saw through my movement? Impossible! The movement I learned is the ultimate movement from Qixuan Valley, 'Hehuan Wuying', and my movements are also completely irregular. He could have just stabbed me once, how could he be so accurate?" Zhang Guanyu felt a great sense of defeat in his heart. His strongest aspect was his movement, but he was completely suppressed by Lin Ming in this regard. When he thought about it, he felt like a clown performing a useless show with his dazzling movements, only to be stabbed accurately by Lin Ming's single spear thrust.
"How did you...?"
"Your sword cuts through the wind, so the wind betrays you." Lin Ming said with a smile. After grasping the intent of the wind, Lin Ming didn't even need to use his eyes to see Zhang Guanyu's movements. As long as he sensed the information transmitted by the wind, he could instantly judge Zhang Guanyu's position and trajectory.
Zhang Guanyu naturally couldn't understand the meaning behind Lin Ming's words. His face twitched and he said coldly, "You're just being deliberately mysterious!"
"You really surprised me, great, I'll take out all my strength and kill you!" Zhang Guanyu stretched out his left hand index finger and middle finger, and with a swipe of the long sword in his hand, a streak of fresh blood was left on the sword.
At the same time, Zhang Guanyu's complexion began to turn rosy, and then turned into a jade-like color. His arms started to become crystal clear, as if there was a lantern burning inside his body.
"Unity Divine Art! This is Unity Divine Art!" Instantly, people with broad knowledge present recognized the technique Zhang Guanyu was using at this moment.
"The Hehuan Shen Gong of Qixuan Valley! This is a technique that only core disciples can learn, even the Tianzhi Fu disciples of Qixuan Valley can't learn it. Lin Ming is in danger now."
He Huan Divine Art, true yuan profound, moves with sinister poison. After Zhang Guanyu displayed the He Huan Divine Art, his body suddenly emitted a strong and strange aura. This aura was not powerful, but it carried an alternating air of coldness and scorching heat, making people feel as if they saw countless illusions when standing within it, their minds almost lost.
"That's amazing!"
Few of the young people present were weak, but when facing Zhang Guanyu's momentum, they had to fully mobilize their true yuan to barely defend against this momentum.
Just by aura alone, they would have to mobilize their entire true yuan to resist. If they were to face Zhang Guanyu's attack head-on, how could they still fight?
"Is this the Harmony God Technique?" Facing Zhang Guanyu's aura, Lin Ming's body was only subtly moving with tiny units of law, transforming into a thread-like True Essence that burst out and easily tore apart the aura, shattering it into nothingness.
