In this way, Yu Zhe’s sword Qi would be equivalent to a waste, and it might even reveal an opening to receive the move. After all, if he wanted to condense the next wisp of sword Qi, he would still need a little time. This might not be a big flaw in normal times, but in this kind of close-range attack where the hands and feet were connected, this was definitely a fatal flaw!
But now that he’d seen through Lin Yi’s plan, all of that was gone. He had the initiative in his hands, and Lin Yi was just a piece of meat on his chopping board, ready to be killed at any time!
!!
“Although you’re a little smart, it’s a pity that you’ve met me. You’re destined to die today!” Yu Zhe grinned as he aimed at Lin Yi’s retreating back. He had calculated Lin Yi’s escape direction in advance and the sword Qi on his fingertips instantly poured out. Wherever it passed, Jade and Jade would be shattered. No one could stop it. It was the 23rd Style of deadly continuous sword!
BOOM! The earth quaked and the mountains shook. The powerful sword Qi was like rotten wood, directly splitting the mountain forest in front of him in half. Its power was monstrous.
However, at this moment, Yu Zhe’s face didn’t have any trace of pride. Instead, it was ashen, and there was even a bit of panic.
There was no other reason. This sword that he was determined to win, he actually missed!
He was less than three meters away from Lin Yi when he made his move, and he was prepared for Lin Yi’s attack because he knew what Lin Yi was planning. There was no chance of him missing.
But the truth was, he had really failed. The powerful sword Qi destroyed half of the forest, but it didn’t even touch Lin Yi’s clothes. In the face of such a result, even Yu Zhe, this kind of scheming person, couldn’t help but be angry from embarrassment!
The reason why he missed was simple-Lin Yi had intentionally revealed his plan to the enemy. According to what he said just now, Yingluo, I’m sorry. I lied to you!
From the beginning to the end, this was a scam, a typical psychological game.
Lin Yi had all sorts of powerful trump cards, and he wasn’t afraid of his opponent, but he wasn’t stupid enough to go head to head with him. At the end of the day, he was only an expert at the peak of the early stage of the foundation building realm. He was one level lower than his opponent. If he were to fight him head-on, the possibility of him suffering a loss was obviously greater!
No matter how strong or how confident the weak person was, it would always be the worst strategy to fight head-on against the opponent. The best strategy would always be to attack the opponent’s heart and try to lure the opponent to reveal a flaw. Then, he would instantly reveal his powerful trump card and kill the opponent in one blow.
Back in the common world, Lin Yi was able to defeat opponents of a higher level directly, but those were just paper tigers. He had a level but no real strength. It wasn’t that simple when he faced a strong opponent like this.
How many of the disciples of the three pavilions of the heaven rank were mediocre? This was especially true for the rising Sky Pavilion, which was a powerful existence!
The psychological game was just a greeting. The battle had just begun.
In that instant, Lin Yi was just pretending to move. If it was someone with slow reflexes like Meng Tong, he wouldn’t be able to see through Lin Yi’s fake move at all. He wouldn’t be able to react in time, let alone detect Lin Yi’s intention.
However, Yu Zhe’s reaction was too fast and his mind was too sharp. He thought that he knew Lin Yi’s intention from the start and thus fell for Lin Yi’s trap.
To put it bluntly, this psychological game was actually a psychological trap that Lin Yi had set up for smart people like Yu Zhe. It might not work on other ordinary people, but it worked on smart people who were confident in their abilities.
After understanding this point, Yu Zhe’s face suddenly became extremely ugly.
At this moment, there was only a body’s distance between him and Lin Yi. He was supposed to bully the weak, and this distance was the best chance to kill Lin Yi. Lin Yi had no chance of escaping.
However, just because he fell into Lin Yi’s carefully designed psychological trap, the situation suddenly turned upside down. Now the one who had the upper hand was the “weak” Lin Yi!
After his sure-kill move missed, he was exhausted and couldn’t continue. Yu Zhe was a mid-Foundation Stage master, but in a short exchange, he revealed a fatal flaw in front of the “weakling” Lin Yi!
Naturally, Lin Yi wouldn’t let go of such a well-planned opportunity. He clenched his fist and threw a punch at Yu Zhe’s chest while the latter was running out of energy. The fiery fist intent surged out and hit the man’s chest without resistance.
The 23rd Style of wild fire Fist!
“Hmph! You’ve tried so hard to trick me, but that’s all you’ve got!” After receiving this punch, Yu Zhe acted as if nothing had happened. However, before he could finish his sentence, his body shook violently.
Hu! The clothes at the chest area were instantly burned to ashes, and even the skin and flesh that were exposed inside were also charred black. It was a shocking sight.
What was even more shocking was that the fiery fist intent didn’t dissipate. It was like a fire attached to the opponent’s body, constantly burning it. Even though Yu Zhe used his powerful true Qi to suppress it and prevent it from spreading, the area that had been hit was still burning.
This was a new change that Lin Yi had just learned after reaching the twenty-third stance.
Among the previous twenty-two moves, the wild fire Fist had always been on the path of extreme yang and strength. Although this could increase the lethality, there was no room for change. Once the lethality was not effective, it was easy to fall into a passive position in high-level confrontations.
However, in addition to the blazing fist intent of these twenty-three forms being fierce and domineering, there was also a continuous force. And it was because of this force that Yu Zhe, who was in front of him, actually had an additional burning state after being hit.
Just like that, the wild fire Fist’s practicality was greatly increased. When facing a high level opponent, even if its destructive power could not cause fatal damage, the burn effect would still be very useful.
This was because burns meant severe pain, and under severe pain, even the most intelligent person would often lose their usual rationality.
Of course, the burn effect could only cause severe pain. Although it looked very horrifying on the surface and might have been fatal to an ordinary person, it was impossible to burn a powerful Foundation Stage master like Zhe to death.
