Chapter 1177: Seeking the Secret Technique
Chapter 1177: Seeking the Secret Technique
Chen Chuan gazed at the flickering glow in his hand. He had several ideas, but the best one was undoubtedly the Spirit Impact.
This attack method was fast, powerful, and had immense destructive force, making it the most likely to achieve the effect he desired.
The challenge lay in the fact that fighters were highly sensitive to danger. When initiating a Spirit Impact, a brief buildup was usually required, which often gave opponents enough time to react.
However, if he could solve the buildup issue while ensuring the impact's power remained intact, it would become an incredibly potent trump card.
This wasn't impossible.
His eyes fixed on the light, which, under his intense gaze, gradually dimmed and finally vanished when he clenched his fingers.
If another fighter had witnessed this, they would have been utterly astonished.
He didn't extinguish the Spirit Impact after fully releasing it; instead, he reined it in just before it burst forth. The former was already challenging, but the latter was exponentially more difficult.
The execution of a Spirit Impact was a complex and intricate process, requiring the full coordination of mutated tissue. First, spirit energy had to be gathered and condensed, then stabilized through breathing, followed by the unified coordination of the mutated tissue, and finally, the explosive release.
This was a multi-step process that demanded exceptional skill, with no room for error at any stage.
More crucially, once the process began, the energy would surge out like a flood, almost unstoppable. This is why many fighters, despite having ample energy, were cautious about using this move and often chose to release it from a distance.
When they initiated this technique, they exposed their intentions and relinquished the initiative. If an opponent with keen senses launched a preemptive strike during this vulnerable period, they would be defenseless.
Additionally, the intense burst of energy left a brief recovery period, making them susceptible to attacks. If the Spirit Impact missed, they would be the ones to suffer.
By forcibly dissipating the impact, he had to control and suppress the imminent explosion, which was not only highly complex but also placed an immense strain on his mutated tissue.
To illustrate, it was like a person running at full speed suddenly reversing direction at an even faster pace, and doing so just after starting. The dissonance and awkwardness of this action were almost unbearable to imagine.
But he had managed it. This was thanks to his mutated tissue's ability to handle greater power and the presence of the violet qi tissue, which acted as an independent system, sharing the load and assisting him in completing the subsequent actions more efficiently.
However, this was just the beginning. He didn't entirely rely on this. As he consciously regulated and suppressed the process, his body would gradually adapt and develop new auxiliary mutated tissue to meet his needs.
This was a common path for many fighters. Once they reached a certain level, they would strengthen specific mutated tissue or develop new tissue to support special techniques.
However, these tissues could consume additional energy and might not be useful at other times, making them a burden. Many fighters would carefully consider their choices, sometimes even dissolving these tissues and regenerating them when needed.
For Chen Chuan, this wasn't an issue. His mental power was deeply embedded in the opposite world, making such consumption negligible.
His current goal was to achieve perfect control over the Spirit Impact. While he could only manage a small amount of spirit flame for now, exceeding a certain limit would still be unsustainable, as each additional bit of condensed spirit flame required more force to suppress. This adaptation would come step by step.
Once the new mutated tissue grew stronger, he should be able to achieve his desired outcome. If necessary, he would involve the violet qi.
Even if he hadn't fully succeeded, this technique could still serve as a tactical means to confuse and disrupt enemy predictions, creating opportunities for attack.
Throughout history, many exceptional individuals had likely thought of this method, but Chen Chuan was confident that very few could achieve what he had, as their mutated tissue simply couldn't withstand the strain. Forcing it would only damage themselves.
Besides the Spirit Impact, his other consideration was power.
The Zhou Yuan Technique had given him unprecedentedly complete and robust mutated tissue, far surpassing that of his peers. This meant that, even without the Spirit Impact, his mutated tissue's explosive power was far greater than that of many fighters.
Theoretically, by coordinating this power, he could unleash an unprecedentedly powerful burst of force.
The fighter is protected by a layer of Spiritual Flame, and at higher levels, there is a second layer of spiritual defense within. As he cultivates, he can sense that with the transformation of the Mutated Tissue, more Spiritual Flame is generated inside his body, forming a second or even multiple layers of protection. This means that even if the outer layer is breached, there is still an inner layer to block the attack, significantly reducing the transmission of force.
However, it's important to mention the role of the Violet Qi Tissue. It exists between the real and the ethereal, not only serving as an energy source but also as a medium for force. It can infiltrate and penetrate the enemy's body.
Previously, he used this property to detect the enemy's location. However, since it can be directly transmitted into the enemy's body, theoretically, force can also be released through this Violet Qi Tissue.
Of course, he has only had this idea, and the practical application still requires further exploration.
In addition to these two thoughts, he recently had another idea.
It involves using the Xuejun Blade to achieve his goal.
After absorbing something from the Wanderer, the Xuejun Blade became unprecedentedly sharp. When facing Crossal, the latter dared not face its edge directly, often using bumps and strikes to avoid the blade's slashes. In their final confrontation, he could have chosen to cut his opponent in one stroke.
The weapon is already very sharp, and if combined with a burst of force tailored to it, the result could be extremely terrifying, potentially allowing him to achieve his goal earlier than expected.
However, his hypothetical opponent is a Dongxuan Temple Fighter. These fighters can only eliminate the combatants on the scene, and it would be very difficult to kill them. Fortunately, he doesn't set his standards so high; achieving this step is sufficient for now.
As for the Spirit Phase...
He tried to find answers on the Wansong platform, but in the battle at Changsheng Temple, there was no issue of the Spirit Phase failing to keep up with the pace. Therefore, no one encountered his problem, as no one would think of challenging a Dongxuan Temple at this level, turning a non-issue into an issue.
However, the Wansong platform did offer a suggestion.
That suggestion was to use a relic.
Certain relics with specific effects can achieve the desired result.
If he can find one, it would be the most efficient method.
Although he believes it's best to master abilities himself, he wouldn't refuse assistance, such as external implants or weapons. To him, relics are no different, and if he doesn't use them, others will.
After organizing his thoughts, he practiced the release and retraction of Spiritual Impact at the training hall, then opened the box, took the medication, and resumed his daily cultivation. The only difference from usual was that the dosage was much higher this time.
After a night of continuous practice, he concluded his cultivation in the early morning. He freshened up, checked his boundary token to see if there were any messages.
There was nothing significant from the team yesterday, and since they had just arrived, the visiting group gave everyone two days to acclimate, so there wasn't much to do for now.
However, a letter arrived last night. The sender was Shin Gorou, the head of the Non-Physical Flow Dojo in the Federation's capital.
Shin Gorou, having heard that the new head of the Non-Physical Flow Dojo had arrived, wanted to invite him for a meal and discuss some important matters.
Chen Chuan thought about it and decided to accept the invitation, as he was now the nominal owner of the dojo.
Commander Xie also took this matter seriously, as even using the Non-Physical Flow Dojo as a base was extremely valuable, and the dojo in the capital had an irreplaceable role. Therefore, he arranged for some professional managers to accompany Chen Chuan.
Around ten in the morning, Chen Chuan's car arrived at the Non-Physical Flow Dojo. Shin Gorou, having been informed in advance, was waiting with a group of elite disciples.
They were all dressed in the same training attire, exuding the unique spirit and energy of Eastern combat arts.
After getting out of the car, Chen Chuan surveyed the area. The dojo was located in the northwest corner of Central City, covering a vast area with a direct view of the Trekland Inner Lake, a prime location that was highly valuable.
The dojo was established early, during the founding of the Federation, and its nominal owner was a Federation hero. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to secure such a prime location.
The value of the land alone was enough to cover the construction costs of all the Non-Physical Flow dojos in the Federation combined. It's no wonder that companies in Vijiazia Central City wanted to take over the dojo. Conversely, without a powerful figure to oversee it, it would have been impossible to hold onto this property.
He could imagine that many people were still eyeing the dojo, and the problem mentioned in the letter might be related to this.
Shin Gorou was a rough-looking man with a massive build, towering over the surrounding disciples like a giant. Despite his appearance, his attitude and tone were very humble.
He greeted Chen Chuan according to traditional customs, then respectfully invited him into the dojo.
