Above all spirits

Chapter 356 Sparring (Part 2)

"Come again!"

Lu Wushuang knew that she could no longer compete with Gu Yun in a simple contest of strength.

Although I don't want to accept it, this is the truth.

But this did not make Lu Wushuang back down even a step.

Like a tiger descending a mountain, he immediately adjusted his breathing and attacked Gu Yun again.

They clashed rapidly in the air, so fast that it seemed as if time itself was stretched out.

Every attack and counterattack carried immense power, and the entire sky seemed to be wailing.

Several powerful individuals at the peak of the Saint Body realm in the city noticed the terrifying battle in the sky. Although there was no energy spread, the sheer scale of the battle, even in a physical confrontation, made them tremble with fear.

No one dared to fly away from the planet at this time. Even if something really happened, they were afraid of being affected. If they were affected, they would be bedridden for half a year.

After a series of continuous exchanges, Lu Wushuang finally realized that Gu Yun was not only physically strong, but also had extraordinary experience, mental state and judgment.

No matter how he changed his tactics, Gu Yun was always able to counterattack after deflecting the force.

A resolute glint flashed in Lu Wushuang's eyes. She changed her strategy, began to use her trump cards, and launched another attack on Gu Yun.

This time.

His moves seemed somewhat unusual.

Gu Yun could clearly feel that the burning aura within the other person's body had deviated from its intended path.

Although I was puzzled, I didn't care too much.

Once one principle is understood, all principles can be broken; this applies to battles of pure strength as well.

Gu Yun quietly immersed herself in her own world of insights.

Undoubtedly, Gu Yun once again effortlessly dodged Lu Wushuang's terrifying punch. Just as he was about to use the force to retaliate, Lu Wushuang suddenly shifted the point of force from his fist to his elbow, and slammed it into Gu Yun's chest.

Gu Yun frowned slightly. Generally speaking, in a battle, a punch thrown or a sword slashed out is like water spilled out; it's very difficult to retract it. Yet, Lu Wushuang in front of him could change the point of force at will. This was something that couldn't be achieved simply by having extremely high control over his own body.

It must be related to the special way he used his luck just now.

Gu Yun turned his palms together, attempting to neutralize the terrifying impact of Lu Wushuang's elbow by wrapping them around his hands.

"Snapped--!"

Gu Yun's face showed surprise.

The impact from Gu Yun's palm was not as strong as Gu Yun had expected; in fact, it was rather weak.

This is somewhat unreasonable.

Unless one's own perception has become distorted.

But this is obviously impossible.

And in the next moment.

Gu Yun's expression changed slightly, and she immediately realized that something was wrong.

He then threw a powerful punch at Lu Wushuang.

His punches were like dragons, their force like a heavenly pump, and their intent to kill was everywhere.

Lu Wushuang shivered instantly, as an unprecedented pressure enveloped his entire body.

He smelled death in that punch.

If I try to tough it out, I'll probably be seriously injured, if not killed.

This forced him to stop everything he was doing and turn his attention to defending against this unstoppable attack.

"boom!"

The two retreated several steps each, the difference being that one was retreating voluntarily, while the other was being knocked backward.

Gu Yun shook his right hand, which had just taken a hit from Lu Wushuang's elbow, and a tingling sensation came from his arm.

If he hadn't acted decisively and thrown that punch with all his might, his hand wouldn't have just felt numb; it would probably have been so shocked that he would have lost all feeling and control for a short period of time.

This was under the condition that his physical strength was extremely high. If it were someone else, this arm would probably be completely useless.

He sighed secretly.

"Your strength technique is quite interesting. Is it some kind of force?"

Lu Wushuang nodded somewhat helplessly.

"Your fighting style is too cheating. You can't win unless you pull out your trump card and catch them off guard."

"It's just a pity that your physical strength is too terrifying. Even though this was my first time using internal force, you were able to find the optimal solution immediately."

"It distracted me, leaving me constantly on guard."

"I can let everything else go, but there's no way I can avoid blocking this punch. If I really try to take it head-on, I'll be meeting my great-grandmother soon."

Gu Yun chuckled and shook his head.

"With more practical experience, you can counter many moves, but I must say, your technique of instantly shifting your body's power points and using internal force is indeed quite good."

"Keep fighting?"

Gu Yun was somewhat interested in learning.

He was too embarrassed to ask Lu Wushuang to teach him.

But Gu Yun was confident that he could learn by imitation after a few more tries.

Lu Wushuang slumped his shoulders, shrugged, and shook his head.

"I'm not fighting anymore, I can't win."

"Unless I overwhelm you with extreme power, preventing you from immediately pushing your power beyond your limit, I will definitely be worn down by you with the addition of Boundless Power."

"I've used this hidden force once before. After I became mentally prepared, I couldn't gain any advantage even when my strength was suppressed."

"You win."

Gu Yun nodded, agreeing with Lu Wushuang's statement, but he was still not convinced that Lu Wushuang's strength and skills definitely had room for development, and even in the Upper Realm, it was probably not impossible for her to find a place to use them.

"Want to learn?"

Lu Wushuang suddenly looked up and stared at Gu Yun in surprise.

"Really?"

These unique special skills and techniques are basically passed down through families or sects. Even for independent practitioners, they would never consider passing them on until they reach old age.

"What do I have to give?"

There's no such thing as a free lunch, and he, living in the Demon Realm, knew this all too well.

Gu Yun squinted and smiled as she looked at Lu Wushuang.

"What do you think?"

At this moment, how could Lu Wushuang not know what Gu Yun was thinking? He wanted her method of controlling power and the technique of internal force.

Lu Wushuang hesitated, her heart filled with anxiety.

The hidden strength is a family tradition of the Lu family, and it has special significance.

If it were any other cultivation technique or spiritual treasure, he would definitely not exchange it, even if Gu Yun was the Demon Lord and threatened him with his life.

But Gu Yun's skill of using minimal force to overcome great strength is terrifying; I clearly experienced its power in the actual combat just now.

It can greatly reduce one's energy consumption. Although Lu Wushuang could sense that Gu Yun's current mastery was probably only the basics, the foundation, the fact that even the basics had such an effect was something that would be unthinkable for someone who had reached the Great Perfection stage.

He genuinely wanted to learn.

After a stalemate, Gu Yun finally got the reply she wanted.

He seemed to have Lu Wushuang completely under his control, his expression remaining unchanged throughout.

How could a martial arts fanatic like Lu Wushuang resist the allure of Tai Chi?

"Demon Lord, please promise me that you will never tell anyone."

"Otherwise, I would never have used it as an exchange."

“Even if the power you possess is extremely special and powerful, it is still a technique passed down in my Lu family. If it is learned by too many people, I will have no face to face my ancestors.”
