Chapter 1325 Neccessary Training
[undedited chapter]
----
Wu Hong rushed to confront Wang Wei, but things were different this time. She did not use her Sealing Dao, facing him in a pure fleshly body battle. Although Wang Wei did not know her exact intention, he also followed her. These two clashed, purely using their flesh. Each strike causes intense destructive waves to the surrounding primordial chaos.
Wang Wei observed while fighting, and he realized Wu Hong's control over her body was higher than his. She had reached the [True Heavenly Dao Control] in his [Force Control Skill].
'No, it should be close to the [ TrueHeavenly Dao Control],' he analyzed. The best way to describe her level is based on Heavenly Daos, divided based on their world. Source Chaos World's True Heavenly Dao is Half-Step Transcendent, so their control of laws or Daos is on another level. However, it's different for normal Chaos Worlds.
Wu Hong's level of control should be similar to the True Heavenly Dao of a normal Chaos World. Moreover, she has reached a peak at that level. As long as she takes a step into the transcendent realm, she'll get that level of control.
'Is it possible to achieve Half-Step Transcendent by attaining a higher level of control? For example, if a Paragon's control of the law reaches the level of a Source Chaos World's True Heavenly Dao?' After mulling it over, Wang Wei realized this path was feasible and fell under the category of [Achieving Transcendence Through Skills].
'This idea is good, but how exactly could someone reach that level? Unless they could have direct access to a Source World's Heavenly Dao and its operation of the law. So, a technique that can obverse the operation of the rules of Heaven and Earth?' Such a technique is easy and challenging to create. If Heavenly Dao does not care, then this path is feasible. But if Heavenly Dao does not want anyone to peep at their core secrets, then this path is a dead end.
'An alternate method would be to observe countless True Heavenly Daos from Non-Source Chaos Worlds.' Depending on the world, any Paragon can overwhelm the Heavenly Dao of a Non-Source Chaos Worlds, meaning this approach is more feasible. However, the chances of success are lower, and it also takes a lot of time to deduce how the Source World's True Heavenly Dao operates from observing the Non-Source World's True Heavenly Dao.
"You're distracted," Wu Hong suddenly said before she punched Wang Wei into oblivion.
"Damn it, why is your body so strong," Wang Wei complained as he regenerated. "What body refining technique did you cultivate?"
"Heaven and Earth Body."
"The Body Ancestor's Technique?"
"That's right. When I was in the Divine Body Realm, I found one of the prototypes he left in the world as a fortunate encounter and completed it with my Seal Dao," Wu Hong explained.
"Doesn't that thing require using worlds to cultivate?"
"I found a destroyed Greater Thousand World and used it for my cultivation."
"What about after you ascended? Did you cultivate another technique?"
"There was no need," Wu Hong explained. "This place has countless destroyed worlds and dimensions for me to use. I only need to seal them into my body and use them to temper my flesh. Later, after becoming a Paragon and traveling through primordial Chaos, I found a Chaos World that had just been born and absorbed it."
"How come you seem luckier than me," Wang Wei complained.
"You may be the Son of Fate, but I'm the Darling of Luck," Wu Hong proudly sneered. Wang Wei wanted to complain. Although he has abundant luck, he rarely has any extraordinary fortunate encounters, and that's because his luck manifests in the form of his background — the Dao Opening Sect. Most of the rare things he needed for cultivation can be acquired by asking his sect; that's why he appeared less lucky than Wu Hong. Meanwhile, she had to start from scratch to build a lineage like the Origin Seal Continent — she needed these fortunate encounters.
"Can I see your collection?"
"You can find them in the library," Wu Hong replied.
"Good. Any other flaws?"
"We're just starting," Wu Hong sneered. "I noticed you heavily favored using your fist over your legs when fighting. Such a mindset will limit your variety of attacks and make you predictable.
"Speaking of predictability, you overthink too much," Wu Hong continued. "You like to analyze and plan three to five steps ahead of your opponent."
"Is there something wrong with that?"
"In 99% of battles, such approach is the best. However, what happens when you meet an opponent who is better at predicting your move."
Wang Wei wanted to say something arrogant that no one would be better than him in that area when he remembered the person before him was indeed better. In this short confrontation, Wu Hong was indeed always one step ahead of his predictions.
"Intuition," Wang Wei uttered.
"That's right. You need to learn to switch between [Analysis Fighting Mode] and [Pure Instinct Fighting Mode]."
"I understand."
"Now for your greatest weakness — your soul."
"Are you serious?"
Wu Hong shook her head in disappointment. "Haven't you realized I've been reading your mind throughout this entire fight?"
Wang Wei's face became ugly.
"You're so used to not worrying about your soul in battle that when you meet an expert like me, you become useless."
"But I've trained my soul," Wang Wei said, trying to save some face.
"Yes, but only against people weaker than you," Wu Hong explained. "You've never faced someone on the same soul level as you, let alone someone more powerful. Tell me, how much did you improve after your defeat against Di Tian?"
"The greatest improvement in strength in my life."
"Exactly. Without an opponent of a similar level for soul battles, how did you expect yourself to have any form of achievement?"
In Wu Hong's eyes, Wang Wei's soul accomplishments are good, but that's it. When it comes to an expert of her level, there are too many people who can see the flaw in his lack of soul battle experience.
