In this way, Yu Zhe's sword qi would be wasted, and he would even reveal an opening to receive the attack. After all, if he wanted to condense the next sword qi, he would need some time. This might not be a big flaw normally, but in a close combat like this where hands and feet were connected, this was definitely a fatal flaw!
But now, he saw through Lin Yi's intentions, and all of this didn't exist anymore. The initiative was completely in his hands, and Lin Yi was just a fish on the chopping board that could be executed at any time!
"Although you're a little clever, unfortunately, you met me. You're destined not to live past today!" Yu Zhe sneered as he aimed at Lin Yi's panicking back and calculated the direction in which Lin Yi would escape. The sword qi at the tip of his finger instantly whistled as it poured out. Everywhere it passed, jade and stone cracked, and no one could stop it. Twenty-third Move of the Deadly Continuous Sword!
Bang! The earth shook and the mountains shook. The powerful sword qi directly split the forest in front of him in half with monstrous power.
However, at this moment, Yu Zhe's face didn't have the slightest hint of complacency. Instead, it was livid, and there was even a hint of panic.
There was no other reason. He had actually failed with this sword strike that he was determined to win!
In the instant he attacked, he was less than 3m away from Lin Yi. Moreover, because he had accurately calculated Lin Yi's intentions, he was already prepared. In theory, there was no possibility of him failing.
But the reality was that he had failed. Although this monstrous and powerful sword qi destroyed half the forest, it didn't even touch the corner of Lin Yi's clothes. Faced with such an outcome, even a scheming person like Yu Zhe couldn't help but become angry out of humiliation!
The reason why he had failed was actually very simple. Lin Yi's attempt to feign an attack and escape was intentionally revealed by him to Lin Yi. According to his original words, it was — Sorry, I lied to you!
From the beginning to the end. This was a scam, a classic psychological game.
Although Lin Yi had all kinds of powerful trump cards and was not afraid of his opponent, he was not stupid enough to fight him head-on. At the end of the day, he was only an expert at the peak of the early stage of Foundation Establishment. He was one level lower than his opponent. The possibility of suffering a loss was obviously higher!
No matter how strong or how confident the weakling was on the surface, if he chose to fight head-on with his opponent, it would always be the worst option. The best option would be to fight him head-on. It was always a psychological attack, trying to lure the opponent into revealing a flaw, and then instantly revealing a powerful trump card, killing the enemy in one strike.
Although back in the secular world, Lin Yi could often crush his opponents head-on even when he challenged those of a higher level, those could only be considered paper tigers. They had the level but not the strength. If he really encountered such a high-level enemy, it would obviously not be so simple and direct.
How many disciples from the Three Pavilions of the North Island were mediocre? Especially the Soaring Sky Pavilion, they were all powerful existences!
The psychological game was just a greeting, and the battle had just begun.
At that moment, Lin Yi just pretended to move. If it was someone like Meng Tong, who had a slow reaction, this fake move could not fool him at all. Because he could not react at all, let alone perceive the intention that Lin Yi deliberately revealed.
But facing Yu Zhe at the moment, because his reaction was too fast and his mind was too shrewd, he had long thought that he had grasped Lin Yi's intention, so he fell into Lin Yi's trap.
To put it bluntly, this was a psychological game. In fact, it was a psychological trap that Lin Yi had specially set for smart people like Yu Zhe. It might not work on other ordinary people, but it was definitely tried and tested for smart people like him who were confident that they could grasp everything.
After understanding this in an instant. Yu Zhe's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
At this moment, there was only a distance between him and Lin Yi. Originally, he was relying on his strength to bully the weak. This distance was the perfect opportunity to kill Lin Yi, and Lin Yi had no chance to escape.
However, just because he fell into Lin Yi's carefully designed psychological trap, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse. At this moment, the one who really had the upper hand was Lin Yi, the "weakling"!
After the killing move that he was determined to kill failed, his move was old, and he did not have the strength to continue. Yu Zhe was a master in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, but in a short moment, he revealed a fatal flaw in front of the "weakling" Lin Yi!
Of course, Lin Yi would not miss this carefully designed opportunity. He immediately clenched his palm into a fist, taking advantage of Yu Zhe's weakness, and directly punched out. The fiery fist intent immediately surged out, and instantly bombarded the opponent's chest without any hindrance.
Twenty-third style of Frenzy Fist!
"Humph! You spent so much effort to make me fall into your trap, but it's only this much! " After receiving this punch, Yu Zhe acted as if nothing had happened. However, before he finished speaking, his body shook violently.
Whoosh! The clothes on his chest were instantly burned to ashes, and even the flesh that was exposed inside was scorched black. It was a shocking sight.
What was even more shocking was that the fiery fist intent of the Frenzy Fist did not dissipate just like that. At this moment, it was like a raging fire attached to the opponent's body, continuously burning the opponent's body. Even though Yu Zhe used his powerful true energy to suppress it and prevent it from continuing to spread, the areas that were already hit were still burning with pain.
This was a new change that Lin Yi had just mastered after practicing the twenty-third style of the Frenzy Fist.
In the previous twenty-two styles, the Frenzy Fist had always walked the path of extreme Yang and extreme hardness. Although this could increase its destructive power, there was not much room for change. It lacked a portion of spiritual energy, and once its destructive power was not effective, it was very easy to fall into a passive state in a high-level battle.
However, the fiery fist intent of these twenty-three styles, aside from being fierce and overbearing, also gave rise to an unending after effect. It was because of this after effect that after Yu Zhe was hit, he actually had an additional burning effect.
Because of this, the practicality of the Frenzy Fist greatly increased. When facing a high-level opponent, even if its destructive power could not cause fatal damage to the opponent, its subsequent burning effect was still very useful.
That was because a burn meant excruciating pain, and under the excruciating pain, even the most intelligent person would often lose their usual rationality.
