It was too close.
The distance of twenty feet was covered in less than four steps! The other party's speed was very fast. Regardless of whether it was speed or agility, they were all above Lu An's, but not by much. At least, in Lu An's eyes, it had not reached the state of blurry, especially when compared to the Star Force from before.
But not only was his speed fast, Lu An could feel the enormous energy contained in his opponent's body. His strength was probably above Lu An's. Even if Lu An had the Imperial Dragon Bone, he might not be able to beat his opponent in terms of strength.
Seeing his opponent rushing over, Lu An immediately stood up. Squatting would cause one's center of gravity to be seriously unstable, whether it was the strength of the legs or the waist. When the opponent rushed in front of him, Lu An had already stood up. His opponent threw a punch without any hesitation, going straight for Lu An's face!
Because the formation had been filled, the Deep Ice was behind Lu An. The opponent's punch was very heavy. Lu An did not want to take it head-on, so he chose to avoid it. The punch landed heavily on the Deep Ice, shattering the entire Deep Ice and causing it to explode!
Lu An had never been afraid of close combat, even against people stronger than him. Because to him, if he could not win in close combat, long-range combat was even more impossible. At the same time his opponent threw a punch, he also threw a punch, going straight for his opponent's waist and side ribs. Although his opponent was an energy body and would not have a weak point like a normal human, attacking the side ribs was almost an instinctive reaction for Lu An. Moreover, when he could not find a weak point, it did not matter where he attacked.
However … his opponent's defense was very fast, so fast that Lu An's eyes turned cold!
Bang!
The opponent raised his hand and accurately grabbed Lu An's wrist. If it was purely because of his opponent's speed, Lu An's mentality would not have changed. But this was definitely not because of speed, but because of his opponent's reaction!
The moment he was about to throw a punch, his opponent attacked at the same time. The speed of their attacks was almost synchronized. There was no time difference!
Seeing through his movements?
At this moment, Lu An's punching motion and direction had not yet appeared. Could it be that the opponent had the ability to judge the way he punched from the movement of his torso and center of gravity?
Not only that, the enemy's right fist, which had broken through the ice behind him, suddenly turned into a palm and immediately grabbed at the back of Lu An's neck! Lu An sensed it and immediately lowered his head to dodge. At the same time, he raised his left hand to shield his face! Because the moment he bent down, the enemy had already raised his right leg and his knee was aimed at his face!
Bang!
Lu An blocked the opponent's knee with his left hand. The strength of the opponent's leg was so great that Lu An's left hand almost couldn't block it. It almost hit his face! Lu An's body was forced back by the impact. Of course, his legs immediately retreated as well. He used the shattered ice to open up a certain distance to stabilize his center of gravity.
Strong!
As long as a melee combatant made a move, they would know each other's strength and level, not to mention Lu An, who was extremely proficient in melee combat. If it was just a battle of fists and feet, even Fu Yu admired Lu An's ability very much. At this moment, the melee combat strength displayed by the energy body in front of Lu An was directly listed as a strong opponent that Lu An had never encountered before in his heart!
The melee combat ability was too strong. Other than the person in the black fog who had taught him in the past, the energy body in front of him was definitely the strongest person!
Whether it was the control of timing, the control of distance, or the observation of the human body and the center of gravity, this energy body could be called a miracle! Fighting with such an enemy made Lu An feel very pressured, but also very excited. Because ever since his master had disappeared, no one could make him feel so pressured in terms of fists and feet! And because of that, he could not lose!
The opponent rushed forward at an extremely fast speed. Lu An's eyes were extremely calm as he watched the opponent's every move. When the distance between them was less than 2 feet, neither of them made a move. Because if they made a move, there would be a flaw. For a person of Lu An's level, not making a move would allow him to gain the upper hand. When the opponent attacked, the advantage would be greater, whoever made the first move would lose.
But ….. this also had a distance restriction. If the distance was too close, even if one could see it, one would not be able to react in time. Therefore when the distance was less than 2 feet, both of them simultaneously made a move. Even the attacking position was the same – not the head, but the chest!
The face was easy to dodge, but the chest was not. More importantly, it restricted the opponent's torso and affected the opponent's fists and feet. With a distance of 2 feet, both of them did not choose to meet the opponent's fist, but directly aimed for the opponent's chest!
Peng!
Peng!
Both of them used their left hand to block the opponent's attack. But the opponent's strength was slightly stronger than Lu An's, so the impact that Lu An received was naturally different. But the similarities between both of them ended here. Following that, both of them chose completely different responses.
Wanting to directly grab the opponent's fist was extremely difficult, because one could not control their strength. Not only did Lu An block the opponent's fist, at the same time he shifted his body sideways, using his left hand to grab the opponent's wrist. His body tilted to the right while grabbing onto the opponent's body, as though he wanted to throw the opponent out!
The energy body lifted its leg in preparation to attack Lu An's lower body. It wanted to force Lu An's legs out of the light pillar. Because if Lu An did not have the support of the light pillar, his stability would greatly increase. Lu An's initiative to leave the light pillar caused him to lose his balance. This was completely out of the energy body's expectations, causing its attack to fail.
Peng!!
The energy body slammed heavily against the ice behind, shattering the ice, but it did not retreat too far. Because the ice was too dense, there was basically no space to retreat. Such a collision was also unable to injure the opponent, this point Lu An was extremely clear.
Peng!
Lu An's palm slammed against the ice, borrowing the force to swiftly charge towards the energy body. And the energy body immediately rushed out of the embedded ice, exchanging blows with Lu An.
Both of them could see the intention of the other's attack, but Lu An was more confident because he was a human, and the opponent was just an energy body. He believed that the opponent did not have the ability to think, and because of this, could only determine the moves of the punch from his own body, but could not determine the real situation.
Lu An's body trembled violently, and he quickly raised his left arm, as though he was going to attack the energy body's side ribs.
Sure enough, the energy body immediately raised its right arm to block, but this punch was a feint. The energy body's punch caused its body to fall into inertia, making it difficult for it to throw a heavy punch to block Lu An's other attacks. Lu An immediately threw out his right fist with all his strength, going straight for the opponent's heart!
Peng!
The energy body was immediately repelled, slamming heavily against the ice behind it. Seeing this, Lu An's eyes turned cold. Sure enough, this energy body could not see through the feint. If that was the case, this battle would become much easier.
Lu An immediately followed up with another attack, alternating between the feint and the real situation. Every feint would deceive the opponent, and then he would land a heavy punch on the opponent's body, including the face. And under Lu An's continuous attacks, certain cracks appeared on the energy body's body, as though it was injured.
Lu An naturally discovered that if the energy body was injured, it would be much easier to deal with. Otherwise, if it was as hard as the beam of light, it would be useless no matter how much Lu An attacked. In the end, he would tire himself to death. But … even if he really defeated this energy body, what should he do next? Could it be that he would be able to escape?
Lu An did not have time to think about this. He could only solve the problem in front of him first. He made another feint, guiding the opponent to block, and then clenching his other hand into a fist to attack. But at this moment, Lu An's eyes focused!
He realized that the energy body did not block his feint, but punched towards his liver! And the feint could not block it at all, and Lu An's right arm could not make it in time either!
Oh no!
Boom!!
The fist landed heavily on Lu An's Immortal Robe, and Lu An's figure immediately retreated, slamming heavily against the ice behind him!
The Immortal Robe in front of his liver was completely broken, and his entire body's Qi was severely affected. He held his breath!
But even so, Lu An did not reach out to cover his liver, because it was completely futile. Instead, he placed his hands in front of him, ready to face the opponent's attacks at any time.
But … the opponent did not continue to attack, but looked at Lu An.
