Chapter 1854 Lian's Duel - Part 2 (Final)
"Sorry." Was the only word Jin had before he walked away.
Lian thought it was a feint of some sort until Jin opened a portal and asked if she was coming or not. It made her confused even more and asked 'Why?"
"Why? Because Lynn had already prepared the food and we are done with the match."
"Then all you had to do is to punch me before I... huh?" Lian noticed that her Four Tail Demon stance was not activated at all. In fact, she felt that she had never activated her chi at all and her stomach was growling.
"Fox Demon Cultivator Lian, you have already been resurrected. Please follow User to Amber Arbour for your meal. Eat while it's hot or Sub System User Lynn would be furious." The System said and Lian could not believe what the System said until she looked at the back of her.
The entire wall of the training instance broke there was nothing but empty black void space behind the instance walls some ...blood on the ground. It was not. "This is impossible, you killed me before I knew? Is this a joke by the System?"
"Just come out and eat, the System will replay the slow motion video for you to watch," Jin said as he rubbed his tummy. Lian was still confused about what had happened but followed Jin to Lynn's Amber Arbour to have her meal.
It was only during her meal that she had watched the entire thing in slow motion. The moment she finished talking, Jin was already right in front of her, punching her once cause her entire body to dissipate into blood, splatter organs, and fragmented bones.?However, the impact was so great that blood flew with the shockwaves, and it flew into the void along with the broken parts of the wall.
At that point, the System had already prepared to resurrect her instantly due to her contract and Jin's advanced warning. When Lian watched all of this, she could only put her head on the table and knock it a few times.
"Your power... is absurd."
"I know, right??I never expected myself to be this strong and the System said that there are even stronger people, monsters, and beings out there. But I'm like no no no no. If I am already this strong, I should capitalise on this fact and take advantage of the places when I have yet to develop first."
"Do you really still need to develop, Mr. Grade 4?"
"My techniques for one had been rather ...erm basic. I never really throw out signature moves at all. Well, I could manipulate elements at my will, but they were nothing compared to those basic attacks as well."
"I think sometimes basic is enough." Lian munched on her food to comfort her new body and crashed soul. "At the very most, just do something fancy once in a while and shout out the name as your new technique. If you think it is cool and useful for it to be a technique then keep using it." She offered her opinion.
"For example, this all so simple punch. Just name it something like Astral Panda Diverging Punch. When it's actually a punch. If people saw this footage, they would definitely believe it and would wish to cultivate the 19 Astral Lazy Pandas to learn this killer of a move" Lian said and Jin laughed, not sure whether what she said was something genuine or she was making fun of him.
"I will think about it. Maybe if I do something cool in the future, I will get it named." Jin said and asked what's her plan for the future.
"What? Is this like some impromptu annual appraisal for the year? Do I get my bonus for maybe injuring you just a little?"
"You had good speed and sense but you need a little more variation in your attacks so that they cannot predict you. That phantom move you did... that could be the start of your signature moves."
"That is already my signature move. Forcing out that tails to fight with you is already taking everything out of me do to so."
"Perhaps, you should like consistently pull those tails out. Rather than using it as your ultimate attack." n)-0VeLbIn
"It is tiring though," Lian complained as she munched on her pork chop. "Not to mention, I need to eat a lot to get my energy back."
"Then get used to it. Just like how you had made use of my chi and consistently used the sensor skill for the past day. Do you feel that sometimes your body has the urge to just use that skill and sense things even right now?" Jin asked and Lian did not even notice it until he said it. Her body could automatically use the sensing skill because she had been drilled the entire day into it.
"You are ...right. I did not even notice it. And it's only a day since I did that."
"It's because of our cultivation and especially yours. The Nine Tail Fox Demon was known to be a creature that had to be careful of its surroundings because people hunted them down because of their unique tails.?Perhaps, it's because of its tails that the fox was named a Demon for the people it took down for its own safety had branded the fox to be a demon." Jin said and Lian nodded.
"So, you want me to try using the Three- erm Four? Tail stance until I got used to it regardless of the chi consumption?"
"You can utilise its properties like its strength and speed first. Besides you are Grade 9 now, aren't you supposed to have nine tails instead? Hu Hu Hu." Jin joked but Lian rolled her eyes.
"Why am I dealing with this kind of boss."
"Let's make things simple. I have a new dungeon instance coming right up. Making a tail to come out is part of your Grade 1 repertoire, right?"
"Ehh.. yes?" At that moment, she did not realise what she had gotten into.
