This was the difference between throwing a mountain and throwing a weapon!
Regardless of whether it was a flying sword or any other weapon that could be controlled, because of the limited quality, after being hit by Lou Xiaoyi's flying sword like this, it would definitely be knocked away, scattered, or even destroyed!
But for something as large and heavy as a mountain or a huge rock, it would not be able to achieve such an effect!
They had purposely made the mountain rock as hard as it was now. It was harder than a normal mountain rock, but it was far from being indestructible like a cultivator's weapon! The goal was to make it easy for you to cut it open, but after cutting it open, it would be useless!
If it was really a mountain that was thrown over, it would be unstoppable for the Swordsman. Of course, a Foundation Establishment cultivator would not be able to lift a mountain either.
This was also a way of fighting!
Just as Lou Xiaoyi's Four Seasons Sword hit the huge rock, the distant Duan Baoshi exhaled loudly and threw out the second rock with his huge dharma idol!
Obviously, this was a type of chain technique. Although it was not as fast as the inner sword technique, it was not as fast as the nine stars in one throw like an archer!
But its strength lay in the fact that it was very big, so big that it could not be easily destroyed! Blocking it once was useless, but if it was blocked a few times, the next rock would follow, and sooner or later it would cause the opponent to be flustered!
Lou Xiaoyi was not anxious. This kind of attack was indeed very novel, but how could there be a perfect attack in the cultivation world?
The weakness of throwing rocks was also very obvious! First, it was slow, and second, the power was not concentrated enough!
Being slow meant that the opponent had enough time to react, and the power was not concentrated enough meant that it would be difficult to cause fatal damage to the cultivator!
Under the same power, was it the sharp flying sword that was harder to defend? Or the entire rock surface?
It was also during his experiment that he keenly saw the opponent's plan. Rather than saying that the cultivator was competing with him for victory, it was better to say that he was stalling for time and progress to regain his face!
This kind of fighting style would send out a message to everyone: Look! This Swordsman was not that invincible? He could not insta-kill everyone! There would still be opponents who could suppress him to the point that he could not retaliate … This was the purpose of building confidence!
He just wanted to offset the huge impact he had on the others in the first round!
The Four Seasons Sword Qi spiraled down and intercepted the attack once again. However, this time, it did not merely cut through the rock. Instead, it pierced through the rock as if it was a human body. Sword Qi erupted from the rock, shattering it into countless pieces!
This time, the threat was truly gone. Gravel began to fall to the ground, as if it was raining stones in a small area …
Lou Xiaoyi's conclusion was that interceptions had to be shattered in order to form a complete defense. However, this kind of defense also meant that he had to expend a certain amount of mana every time he shattered it.
He looked a bit like that beast riding archer from a few years ago!
If it was a few years ago, there was a high probability that he would use the same strategy as he used against the archer. That time, he would destroy his arrows. This time, he would destroy his boulder. Just by looking at his neck and waist, there was definitely a limit. A Foundation Establishment cultivator could not create rocks out of thin air using the five elements. Therefore, if this dragged on, the body cultivator would end up like the archer and retreat in defeat!
However, the difference was that the archer wanted to prove his strength, while the body cultivator wanted to save the confidence of the challengers. If he allowed the body cultivator to throw rocks to suppress him for a period of time before retreating, he would have achieved his goal.
After so many years of fighting, Lou Xiaoyi was no longer that lazy fellow who only moved when others poked him!
Whatever the enemy wants, I must attack! His way of thinking was slowly changing into that of a real Swordsman. Although it came a little late, it was still a start!
The Dharma and Body meridians wanted to regain their momentum, so he must not let them do as they wished! The essence of the cultivation world was to fight. How could there be such a thing as giving up so easily?
His body no longer swayed left and right. Instead, he walked in a straight line straight towards the body cultivator. In the eyes of the crowd, it was as if he was smashing his head into a boulder!
The boulder targeted him and locked onto him firmly. Just before the man and the boulder collided, Jue Cheng shot out and cut the second boulder in two. Lou Xiaoyi narrowly passed through the two boulders and headed straight for the body cultivator.
Four Seasons opened up a path a few hundred feet in front, while Jue Cheng cut the boulder from behind. In just a moment, the distance between the two had closed to a few hundred feet. It seemed that after another two boulders, Lou Xiaoyi would be able to enter the attack range of the flying sword. If he really attacked with his sword, how would his opponent have the chance to throw rocks?
Duan Baoshi saw the changes in the scene more clearly than anyone else!
The Dharma Power of a body cultivator had a qualitative increase in physical defense, but in terms of speed and agility, it had a qualitative decrease! How could a Dharma Power that was over a hundred feet tall be able to move as freely as it normally would?
If he wanted to run fast and maintain the distance between them, he would have to return to normal. But if he returned to normal, he would not be able to throw the boulder that could only be thrown in the Dharma Power state …
This was a difficult choice to make! It was contradictory! It was either one or the other!
But how could he be an easy person to be chosen to carry out such a difficult task?
He had another Theurgy, Force Repulsion!
The Theurgy of a body cultivator was different from the spell system of a spell cultivator and the sword system of a Swordsman. Their comprehension was based on a certain degree of chance!
It was not like a spell cultivator or a body cultivator who could choose their own technique system based on their own will. But the advantage was that the Theurgy was powerful and could be learned quickly. It could quickly form a fighting ability!
It was still a balance!
For a body cultivator, comprehending useless or non-combat Theurgies was very awkward. Even if they were all useful Theurgies, if they could not complement each other, they would either be repetitive or not compatible. This would affect the body cultivator's fighting ability!
So the fighting ability of a body cultivator was not determined by the number of Theurgies they could comprehend, but whether the Theurgies they comprehended could complement each other effectively! Just like Tumu and Bu Qu in the past, they were not famous for having many Theurgies, but because their Theurgies could form a system!
Duan Baoshi's ability might not be above Tumu and Bu Qu's. In some aspects, he was slightly inferior. But the combination of his two Theurgies was a standard long-range attack. It was very rare!
Specifically, when he used the Elephant Tossing Theurgy and Force Repulsion Theurgy at the same time, the strong reaction force of the boulder would give him a strong energy. It would allow him to gain an instant of acceleration in the opposite direction from where the boulder was thrown!
This perfectly solved the weakness of the Dharma Power's slow movement. With the ability to throw boulders while retreating quickly, it would be extremely difficult for others to get close to him!
It was very strange for a body cultivator to use long-range attacks. But this was nothing. There were all kinds of strange things in the cultivation world. There were even spell cultivators who liked to get close!
Lou Xiaoyi closed in decisively, but forced a body cultivator to use another Theurgy. Just as he closed in to eight thousand feet, he was instantly thrown back a thousand feet …
Duan Baoshi's miraculous Stone Tossing Ability made the crowd of cultivators below cheer!
To be able to use the combination of two Theurgies to such a level was amazing! Many people were thinking, if they were the ones going up, would they be beaten up without being able to retaliate?
