No one could tell how strong the experts in the Void Realm were. Due to the restrictions of Hell's Gate, the highest realm that could rush out was the mid-level Innate Stage. However, the strongest strength would definitely be far above the mid-level Innate Stage. Anyone who entered Hell's Gate had to be prepared to die.
Ye Lingchen was well aware of that.
"What's it like in the Void Realm?" Ye Lingchen asked curiously.
"Forests, boulders, countless exotic flowers and plants. That's all I can remember. Back then, I only wanted to survive. I didn't have the time to appreciate it," Li Qi said with a smile.
"Did Minister Xiang also break through because he entered Hell's Gate?"
Li Qi shook his head. "He's different from me. I entered because I couldn't break through, but his talent is much higher than mine. He entered to find more resources."
"Him?" Ye Lingchen was slightly taken aback. He could not forget how that guy cheated him as soon as they met.
"Now that resources are tight, he's doing that because he wants to save as much as he can, so he's very stingy."
"You're not trying to clear his name, are you?" Ye Lingchen looked at Li Qi suspiciously.
Li Qi rolled his eyes. "Me? Clear his name? He still owes me 200 merit points! Among us warriors, apart from those who are too poor, which one of us hasn't been borrowed by him before? "
After a pause, he patted Ye Lingchen's shoulder and continued, "Little Ye, there are still three days before someone will pick you up and take you to Xiangjiang. Someone will meet you there and go to Buff Island together. Prepare well for the International Martial Arts Tournament. This time, Minister Xiang strongly recommended you to participate. Don't embarrass us.
Ye Lingchen nodded.
"Also." Li Qi took out a thin secret manual from his pocket and casually threw it to Ye Lingchen. "When you exchanged merit points last time, you only kept a spear weapon for yourself. You probably like using spears, right? This is a secret manual for spear techniques. Familiarize yourself with it as soon as possible. Consider it our support for you. It's best if you win. Even if you lose, make sure you lose beautifully!"
"Thanks. Don't worry, I'll definitely win this round!" Ye Lingchen said with a smile.
After that, he bid farewell to Li Qi and immediately found a place to flip through the secret manual.
Spear Name: Phoenix Spear of Birds
That spear technique could be said to be famous. It was Zhao Yun's signature move during the Three Kingdoms period. Ye Lingchen did not know where the Warrior's Department got it from, but he guessed that it must have been from Zhao Yun's descendants.
The spear technique was extraordinary. It should be at the same level as the Heart Destruction Palm. It could be said to be a superior martial art.
"Host, self-learning" Phoenix Spear ", proficiency + 1."
"Host, self-learning" Phoenix Spear ", proficiency + 1."
"Host, self-learning" Phoenix Spear ", proficiency + 1."
…
Following the system notification, Ye Lingchen's understanding of the spear grew. When his proficiency reached full bar, Ye Lingchen put down the book and picked up his spear.
The spear was snow-white in color. It was the spoils of war seized from the Void Realm last time. The material was special and not from Earth.
Although his marksmanship was perfect, he needed his body to adapt to it. Otherwise, he would face the predicament of his body being a beat slower than his brain.
Ye Lingchen held the white spear in his hand. The tip of the spear gleamed with silver stars, turning the wind into a bone-chilling cold.
"The spear, the king of all weapons! It consists of the spear tip, the spear shaft, and the spear handle! "
Ye Lingchen caressed the white spear in his hand gently. His fingers slid down the spear inch by inch, as if caressing his lover's skin. His eyes were filled with love.
To use a spear, the first thing he needed to do was to understand his own weapon! He had to treat it as a part of his body.
"Spear techniques mainly consist of blocking, holding, and thrusting. Blocking and holding belong to defensive spear techniques. Blocking can block the enemy's attack. Holding can seize the enemy's weapon. Only thrusting is an offensive spear technique! This is the foundation.
Other than that, there are also techniques such as lifting, suppressing, shaking, and backstabbing. This is the essence of spear techniques. "
The Phoenix Spear had a very detailed record of spear techniques, from the basics to the advanced. Moreover, the moves were not only ever-changing, but their power was also extraordinary. It was no wonder that Zhao Yun could rely on this spear technique to spread his name throughout the ages.
In his mind, he recalled the basic spear techniques mentioned. Ye Lingchen held the spear shaft with his right hand and the middle part of the spear shaft with his left hand. He opened his legs and stood according to the starting stance of the spear technique, starting from the basics.
"Thrusting is divided into upper, middle, and lower levels. The middle level is the most powerful."
"As the saying goes, a middle level spear is the king of spears. The middle level is the hardest to defend against!"
Ye Lingchen stomped hard with his left foot. The strength was transferred from his foot to his waist. With a twist of his waist, his strength increased, reaching his right hand that was holding the spear. With a push of his right hand, the spear stabbed forward.
Swoosh!
The tip of the spear pierced through the air, causing a sharp sound.
"Spear out, like a hidden dragon coming out of the water!"
"Spear back, like a tiger returning to its cave!"
After a mid-level thrust, Ye Lingchen immediately retracted the spear, then quickly stabbed again. One thrust and one retraction, his movements were smooth and swift.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The spear was like a poisonous dragon, shuttling back and forth in Ye Lingchen's hand. He stabbed repeatedly, the sharp tip of the spear constantly pierced through the air, causing a sharp sound.
The mid-level thrust looked simple, just a thrust and a retraction. In fact, there was a lot of knowledge involved in it. The most important thing was to stick the spear in a straight line.
What did it mean to stick the spear in a straight line?
When using the mid-level thrust, the arm had to quickly push the body of the spear forward. It had to be in a straight line with the spear. The force reached the tip of the spear and burst forth with an explosive force. Not only did the thrust have to be fast, but the retraction had to be fast as well.
Only then could the advantage of a long weapon be fully utilized. Truly, an inch longer was an inch stronger, maximizing the destructive power and killing in one hit.
"The mid-level thrust looks simple, but it's actually very exhausting. At the same time, it's also the most lethal spear technique. That's why there's the saying 'nine out of ten people will be injured if you want to break the mid-level thrust'."
His posture remained the same, without any rest. After repeatedly stabbing hundreds of times, even Ye Lingchen's body began to sweat and his hands felt weak.
One had to know that he used his full strength in every thrust.
However, he relied on his physical advantage and did not stop. He continued practicing until the sky turned dark.
Practicing martial arts required gradual progress, but Ye Lingchen had no such limitations. His physical advantage was ample, and the theoretical knowledge in his mind was flawless. Every movement was extremely accurate, and he was not afraid of going overboard.
No matter what weapon it was, the basics were the most important when practicing!
Basic movements had to be practiced repeatedly and diligently in order to achieve success in the future. If one could not even hold a weapon firmly, how could one talk about killing the enemy?
"Straight thrust, horizontal sweep, upward flick, downward pressure, brandishing the spear …"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
The spear was swung around by Ye Lingchen, whipping the air violently with a buzzing sound.
The spear was swung with such force that even the shaft became bent. If it were to hit the body, it would instantly shatter the bones.
Basic movements may seem simple, but they were the foundation of everything. Moreover, each movement was the most practical. To kill the enemy, all other moves were useless. What mattered most was these basic moves!
