The stronger the opponent, the stronger the opponent. This was Lin Yi's usual style. After facing a strong opponent who suppressed him in all aspects, under the huge pressure, a breakthrough became a matter of course.
However, the only regret was that Cheng Haonan did not choose to continue the challenge. While the pressure on Lin Yi disappeared, he also lost the feeling of a breakthrough. This was a pity. Otherwise, if Cheng Haonan continued to challenge, although Lin Yi might not be his opponent, it was very likely that he would have a breakthrough during the battle. That would be a different situation.
Of course, although it was a pity that he could not break through and advance in one go, it was not completely irreparable. Since he had brushed past the feeling of a breakthrough during the day, it was very simple for Lin Yi. He just had to find a way to get it back. After all, this kind of thing seemed a bit mysterious, but it was still traceable.
Lin Yi clearly remembered that when this concept first appeared, it was the first time he was knocked out of the arena by Wu Bao Liang, and his mind was simulating the Raging Flame Thousand Bursts Fist. At that time, he was only thinking about how to defeat Wu Bao Liang, so he didn't pay much attention to it. But now that he thought about it, this feeling was very real.
In other words, as long as he deduced the powerful and oppressive finishing move again, he could induce the fighting spirit in his body, and he would not be far from breaking through.
Lin Yi was at least 60% sure of this, so he immediately tried it without hesitation. However, it was meaningless to deduce the Thousand Violent Fire Fist now. After all, this was a move that he had completely mastered. For Lin Yi, there was no pressure at all. Naturally, there would not be that kind of feeling of a breakthrough under pressure.
The scene of the battle during the day kept rolling in his mind. This time, Lin Yi was not locked on to Wu Bao Liang's Thousand Violent Sand Fist, but Cheng Haonan's whole body turning black.
Although Cheng Haonan was good at ordinary punches and kicks, and he did not have a powerful killing move like the Thousand Violent Sand Fist, the scene of his strength skyrocketing after his whole body turning black left a deep impression on Lin Yi.
Strictly speaking, the blackening of the entire body could not be considered a move, but a state. A state that was even more unsolvable than the Thousand Wild Sand Bursting Fist.
Because he couldn't experience it firsthand like the Thousand Sand Bursting Fist, and he didn't face it many times like Wu Bao Liang, Lin Yi didn't have a deep understanding of Cheng Haonan's blackened body, and it was much more difficult to simulate it. Moreover, this state itself was much more complicated than a simple ultimate move like the Thousand Sand Bursting Fist.
If one wanted to successfully deduce a move, at the very least, one of the prerequisites was to grasp the essence of the move. For example, if Lin Yi didn't know the principle behind the Thousand Heavy Explosions of the Wild Sand Thousand Bursting Fist, he wouldn't have thought of using Fire Crystals as a replacement. Naturally, there wouldn't be the Wild Fire Thousand Bursting Fist.
However, Cheng Haonan's true blackness only lasted for a short moment. It was easier said than done to grasp the essence of it.
Over and over again, the scene of the battle with Cheng Haonan during the day played in Lin Yi's mind like a movie. He kept repeating it, including Cheng Haonan's movements, reactions, and the aura he exuded. He did not miss any detail on the stage. Only by doing this could he find some clues.
Previously, when deducing Wu Bao Liang's Thousand Wild Sand Bursting Fist, Lin Yi used less than the time it took for a stick of incense to roughly reconstruct his own Wild Fire Thousand Bursting Fist. However, this time, he spent most of the night deducing Cheng Haonan's blackening state, but he still couldn't grasp the essence.
Could that move really be so invulnerable? Lin Yi couldn't help but frown. With his super strong perception, he couldn't even see a single clue. It was really strange.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Lin Yi's mind. No, no, the key was not after Cheng Haonan's blackening state, but before his blackening state!
Although there was a huge gap in strength, whether it was before or after his entire body darkened, Cheng Haonan's combat essence had not changed at all. He was still using ordinary punches and kicks. The only difference was that his power and speed had skyrocketed.
In other words, as long as he could understand Cheng Haonan's ordinary punches and kicks, he could take advantage of the situation and understand his blackening state. The two were actually of the same origin.
After figuring this out, the difficulty of deducing suddenly decreased a lot. Although Cheng Haonan's blackening state only lasted for a moment, Lin Yi had a deep understanding of ordinary punches and kicks. After all, he had been in a stalemate with Cheng Haonan for a long time and suffered a lot.
Each of Cheng Haonan's punches and kicks turned over in his mind. The True Qi in Lin Yi's body couldn't help but become a little restless. This was not a simple perception, but a fusion of a part of the perception. To some extent, the perception was more reliable than the perception. It felt more real, and the effect was naturally better.
Although it was not clear how Cheng Haonan did it, Lin Yi had already faintly entered a new realm, a brand new realm of physical techniques.
Unlike martial arts, the foundation of martial arts lay in True Qi, while the foundation of physical techniques lay in the body. In fact, it was somewhat similar to the physical experts in the secular world!
Looking at the current cultivation world, including the five great islands of the Heaven Rank, martial skills ran rampant in the world. No matter what level the duel was, it would usually end with the exchange of a few powerful martial skills. Very few people still persisted in using physical skills. Of course, most of these people were former physical cultivators.
After all, apart from a freak like Cheng Haonan, the majority of people would not focus on cultivating Body Arts. That was because it required a long period of time and effort. Most importantly, the results of cultivation were far inferior to the rapid improvement of Martial Arts.
Spending the same amount of time to practice a martial art would be enough to increase one's combat power by ten points. However, if it was used on physical techniques, the combat power might only increase by one point, or even less. With such a big difference, it was obvious which one a normal person would choose.
Slow improvement was the biggest disadvantage of physical techniques, but at the same time, it had an absolute advantage that no other martial arts could compare to. As long as one persisted in practicing, the power of physical techniques could be improved infinitely!
No matter how powerful a martial art seemed at the moment, it was still limited by the realm of strength. After reaching a certain level, it could not be improved any further. Even if one could continue to practice the subsequent moves, the improvement would be minimal, far from being able to keep up with the new realm. Therefore, one could only practice an even more powerful martial art and start from the beginning.
However, physical techniques were different. Until now, no one had heard of anyone reaching the upper limit of physical techniques! If one continued to practice, they would explode and die. This kind of thing was basically impossible.
