San Tian Liang Jue

Chapter 296 Cape Contest (Thirty-Two)

"Does it bother you that I'm gifted?" Feng Bujue retorted.

"Oh? I'd say... it's more likely explained by some kind of persistent passive skill," Qi Sha shrugged. "But... since you don't want to elaborate, never mind." He paused, then continued, "Let's get back to the main topic. I can see that unless I stand here and let you hit me, you can't win. And the longer the fight drags on, the more disadvantageous it becomes for you, with your lower stamina and survival value. A war of attrition will only result in your defeat." He raised his head and asked, "I don't think you'll deny that, will you?"

"Heh... hehe..." Feng Bujue's mouth twitched as he chuckled dryly a few times, "I hope your words come true."

"Haha... don't get me wrong, I'm not advising you to quit. I can tell you're the kind of person who won't shed a tear until you see your own coffin," Qi Sha laughed. "I'm just suggesting, while you're not completely exhausted, why not be decisive and use a killing move to settle the score with me?" As he spoke, Qi Sha straightened his stance and began to move his arms, as if warming up for something.

"Judging by this... you're hoping to win in a 'glorious' way..." Feng Bujue asked.

"Yes," Qi Sha actually admitted. "Have you played fighting games in arcades? When there's only one enemy left, and that enemy's health is already low, everyone tries to finish them off with a special move, right?" Underneath the bat helmet, he already had a delighted expression. "Amidst the admiring gazes of the surrounding players, you take your hands off the controls and watch your character complete the special move in slow motion, then the word 'WIN' pops up on the screen, that feeling..."

"Alright, I get it," Feng Bujue waved his hand, interrupting Qi Sha. "You only needed to say, 'I'm going to use my ultimate move to send you out of the script,' you didn't need to give such a specific example."

"Ah, that's exactly what I mean," Qi Sha said. "Of course, if you want to continue this back-and-forth battle, I don't mind either."

"No," Feng Bujue said. "Your suggestion is good." He also went all out, immediately gulping down a health potion (actually, it was only his second), and activating Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique. "You like a Hokuto Shinken-style decisive battle, right? I'll play along to the end."

At this point, Feng Bujue was also very clear that Qi Sha had already done his best for him. Anyone else would not have given him this last chance.

The Batsuit almost guaranteed invincibility in close combat, and its excellent tracking function meant that escape was a meaningless endeavor. It could be said that as long as Qi Sha took the initiative to drag out the fight, victory was certain.

But this solo fighter did not do so; he didn't want the battle to end in that way.

A worthy loser should lose valiantly. A powerful enough winner should also win with magnanimity.

"Ha! Good!" Qi Sha responded loudly, his fighting spirit soaring, his skill ready to be unleashed.

"Then I won't be polite," Feng Bujue took out the Vajra Bell and activated Effect Four: [Doubles the effect of your next Spiritual Art specialization skill (under reasonable conditions)].

Then, he put the Vajra Bell into his jacket pocket, clenched his fists, adopted a steady horse stance, and launched [Watch Closely] with his bare hands, naturally choosing the "Spiritual Art" specialization.

The main reason Feng Bujue wasn't holding a weapon at this moment was that he didn't know what form Qi Sha's ultimate move would take. In this situation, attacking with his bare hands was easier to adapt to.

Another reason was... he subjectively believed that if he wanted to randomly get some cool and domineering skills, using a wrench or folding chair as a "weapon" was definitely not going to work. Holding a knife, sword, or whip might have had a bit of hope, but he had none of those things now... so he might as well go bare-handed.

"Okay... an inexplicable energy is surging out of my body, what will it be..." Feng Bujue muttered, "Makankosappo, Kienzan, Spirit Ball... any of those could reverse the situation..." (Here, Jue-Ge misunderstood the nature of ki blasts; in fact, these three belong to the fighting skill category, and he chose the Spiritual Art specialization, so it was impossible to activate them.)

"Although I don't know what you're mumbling about, I'm going to make my move..." Seeing that his opponent was also ready, Qi Sha took a step forward with great excitement, and when he attacked, he didn't forget to shout out the name of his move: "Tenma Comet Punch!"

The reason Qi Sha said this was his ultimate move was because this skill was a B-level Fighting Specialization consumable skill that could only be used once.

A certain unkillable youth in the second dimension once used this move to slay gods and demons, rampaging through the heavens and earth. Now, used by Qi Sha, a player who didn't know how to burn his small universe, its power was discounted, but it was by no means something a mortal could withstand.

From this costly behavior, it could be seen that Qi Sha gave Feng Bujue's strength considerable affirmation. To be able to fight evenly with himself, who was wearing legendary equipment, it was hard to say whether he could kill him with one blow without the Comet Punch.

Feng Bujue, on the other hand, felt a sinking feeling in his heart when he heard the name of the opponent's move. In the face of this attack, even Soul Intent was useless. Everything he had was bet on the unknown skill in his hands...

The Comet Punch flew through the air, a huge blue and white light hurtling towards Feng Bujue. This punch was awe-inspiring, powerful, and unstoppable.

Seeing that Feng Bujue had reached the point of certain death!

At this moment, he still had no fear, his heart was as clear as ever, he raised his hands and unleashed a move.

But what was seen was a dark, black light, dyeing the sky, shocking the heavens and earth, with a whale-like momentum, roaring out.

[Name: Cero]

[Skill Card Attributes: Active Skill, disappears after one use]

[Skill Category: Spiritual Art]

[Effect: Highly concentrates spiritual pressure, emitting a ray-like flash of light]

[Consumption: 100% of the upper limit of spiritual power value]

[Learning Conditions: Spiritual Art Specialization C]

[Remarks: A technique that Hollows of the level of a Gillian or higher can use, usually red, but the color varies depending on the user's identity when released by a high-ranking user.]

Currently, Feng Bujue's Spiritual Art Specialization was exactly C-level (like Fighting Specialization, it had just been raised through Soul Intent when fighting Shiva), using a consumable skill against a consumable skill, the B-level Tenma Comet Punch should still be better, but... Feng Bujue used the Vajra Bell.

Therefore, the power of this move was doubled!

As soon as the Cero came out, it immediately suppressed the momentum of the Comet Punch and gradually swallowed it.

Before Feng Bujue could be happy for even two seconds, two system prompts sounded in his ears one after another:

[The skill "Cero" that you randomly activated has exhausted all current spiritual power value. The stamina value loss caused by overloading the skill is 30%.]

[Your stamina value has been exhausted, and the remaining overload loss has been deducted from your survival value.]
