47. A fierce battle? A psychological one!
47. A fierce battle? A psychological one!
Yu Zong was taken aback for a moment, then the anger in his eyes was almost uncontrollable. His inner demons focused in his pupils, the demonic threads twisting and turning, trying to intimidate Bai Hui in some way.
However, Bai Hui, with his simple lines, couldn't see Yu Zong's eyes at all... What kind of eyes could a stick figure have?
He could only see some information about Yu Zong—
Name: Yu Zong
[Heart-Slaying Star: 1.2]
[Realm: Evil Body (lower position)]
……
Because Bai Hui's rationality was still low at the moment, and Yu Zong was not a fake like Zhang Yan, who had the Heart Demon protecting him, Bai Hui could not see much information.
But that's enough. A Heart Qi of '1.2'... This guy truly deserves to be the second student in this year's class to condense Heart Qi. Just this number alone makes him stand out from all his peers except for Bai Hui!
only……
As for version 1.2, I wonder if this guy intentionally trained himself to look like this...
The timing of these numbers is just too perfect!
Bai Hui appeared calm, but his heart was already slightly turbulent.
Besides these things, Bai Hui also saw a few words floating above Yu Zong's head—
【Ink-stained Eyes (LV.2)】
Eye technique?!
Bai Hui was slightly startled. This should be the second type of eye technique martial art he had encountered so far.
The first type is undoubtedly Zhang Yan's medical-grade pupil technique, which can instantly detect the target's body temperature... No, Wu Peng's dynamic vision under high-speed flashing should also be a pupil technique... So, is that the third type?
Bai Hui pondered, wondering what exactly the effect of this so-called 'Ink Trace Eyes' was...
After all, pupil techniques are different from other martial arts. Unless they reach a certain level or can directly cause damage to the target, it is difficult to know their effects at a glance.
Of course, generally speaking, the effects of eye-type martial arts are actually only a few things—enhanced dynamic and static vision, direct damage, mental intimidation, illusion, etc.
As Bai Hui was thinking, Yu Zong couldn't hold back any longer. He used the so-called "Ink Trace Pupil" and walked towards Bai Hui with his fist clenched.
"Bai Hui, is that it? You've got guts! How dare you bully Xiao Lian..."
Yu Zong moved his lips, focusing his voice into a single line so that only Bai Hui could hear it.
"My motivation for learning martial arts and becoming stronger is to protect Xiaolian from harm in this ridiculous world! How dare you let Xiaolian suffer?! For the past week, she has only eaten half a bowl of rice at each meal, has no appetite, and has barely spoken to me!"
You deserve to die, Bai Hui!
"?"
Bai Hui slowly typed out a question mark. So this guy is a seasoned sister-complex!
but……
"Then why were you saying those things just now? Did you think you and your siblings were too close?"
Yu Zong frowned. How come this guy doesn't even use the sound-gathering technique?!
He transmitted his voice again, saying coldly, "What do you know! I was just trying to save Xiaolian's face!"
"Really? But why do I feel like you were almost pointing your finger at her and calling her an old peacock who's deluding herself?" Bai Hui said calmly.
"You son of a bitch!"
Yu Zong glared angrily: "You dare to sow discord between us siblings!"
"Why bother trying to sow discord? Guess why she stomped her foot and ran away?" Bai Hui said calmly, "It couldn't be because I'm handsome, could it?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Zong subconsciously recalled the events, and then his expression changed.
Oops?!
Bai Hui's heart skipped a beat, thinking to himself, "What a great opportunity!"
He immediately stopped standing still, bent down and sprinted, crashing headfirst into Yu Zong's chest. His starting punch came from below and upwards, as swift and powerful as an arrow being shot out!
The speed of the punch was so fast that it even left a clear afterimage in the air!
This punch slammed into Yu Zong's jaw!
If it landed squarely, Yu Zong would definitely suffer a concussion and fall into a prolonged state of dizziness... because Bai Hui's punch also incorporated some of the subtleties of "knocking on the back of the neck to cause dizziness".
Yu Zong's reaction was also quite remarkable. He made a slight creaking sound as his bones rubbed together, and his entire body was so soft and boneless that he twisted his neck into a strange arc using the "Twelve Forms of Xingyi: Snake".
At the same time, he raised both hands and pressed down on Bai Hui's fist imprint while lightly tapping his feet. His figure was as ethereal as a swallow, and with the help of Bai Hui's power, he leaped into the sky.
Then, with shoulders heavy like a bear and legs flailing like whips, he combined the bear and snake forms, descending from the sky and crashing down on Bai Hui's head with the momentum of his fall!
Bai Hui realized he couldn't take the kick head-on, so he condensed frost under his feet and used the patrolling steps to slide around, disappearing without a trace.
"boom!"
Yu Zong's heel sank into the concrete ground, sending pebbles flying.
Without even looking, Yu Zong turned and chased after Bai Hui... He could actually see through Bai Hui's movement trajectory?!
Bai Hui seemed to be deep in thought. He looked back and saw the traces of his own movement beneath the simple lines. With the help of the faint frost, they were not very clear, but they were still visible.
After thinking for a moment, Bai Hui continued to move while focusing his inner energy into his eyes. Although it wasn't a special pupil technique, it made his movement trajectory clearer and clearer... Generally, martial artists wouldn't focus their inner energy into their eyes unless they had cultivated any pupil techniques or martial arts.
Because the human eye is fragile, if you're not careful, you could easily go blind.
But Bai Hui isn't very rational right now, and under the influence of "simple lines," he won't think too much, so he just does it.
I just felt a slight swelling in my eyes, but otherwise I didn't feel any discomfort.
Bai Hui thus realized that the starting point of the ward rounds was still too low. After all, it was only used by medical staff for night ward rounds. Even though Bai Hui had trained it to the 'LV.4' level and even incorporated some of the 'strange logic' of the long-tongued parrot, he still did not have much of an advantage when facing those who were skilled in eye techniques.
Once its "silent" and "ghostly" characteristics are ignored by the opponent, then this movement technique will become a burden!
With this in mind, Bai Hui decisively changed his strategy, changing his patrol steps to "Xingyi Swallow Form" and pairing it with "Alien Species Long-tongued Parrot". It still combines agility and ghostly charm, but it is no longer a small, close-to-the-ground step. Instead, it incorporates more flexible leaps and bounds, like a swallow flying through the air!
Bai Hui turned around and attacked, using the movement techniques of the Twelve Forms of Xingyi, but his hands were forming the palm print of the "Emergency Resuscitation Palm"!
This palm technique is an essential palm technique for medical staff, and it is not derived from Xingyi Quan like "Ward Rounds Step" or "Nurseman's Boxing".
Even Zhang Yan couldn't explain the principles of martial arts clearly. He only knew that it was easy to learn, extremely versatile, and even updated every year!
The updated content consists of various diseases and ailments that exist in the world!
Although it cannot directly cure the disease, it can give the patient a much-needed boost and buy more time for rescue.
In today's society, the most common ailment is mental illness, since mental distress is itself a wound to the soul.
Therefore, this "First Aid Recovery Palm" even has the effect of psychological therapy. It can be combined with the Heart-Slaying Technique to implant part of one's own emotions into the other person's mind, forcibly putting oneself in the other person's shoes!
Generally, this method needs to be paired with "inspirational quotes" to temporarily and effectively boost the target's sanity level slightly!
This temporarily rekindled the hope for life in the person who had intended to commit suicide!
However, in Bai Hui's view, this palm technique could also be used to attack the mind...
"Your sister doesn't want you anymore~"
Bai Hui's palm prints, imbued with his emotions, landed on Yu Zong repeatedly with a high-frequency "needle-like" technique.
A single slap or two, a few words or two, might not be enough to shake Yu Zong's resolve, but the continuous attacks, coupled with his earlier doubts—
Yu Zong gradually began to feel anxious and uncertain.
Because Bai Hui was conveying his philosophy through palm techniques, rather than speaking directly!
Those repeated chants, to Yu Zong, who wasn't very familiar with the "Emergency Resuscitation Palm," felt as if they originated from the depths of his own heart.
His moves remained sharp, but a hint of doubt had crept into his eyes.
This slight change was so obvious to Bai Hui, who had already grasped part of the "Long-tongued Parrot's Strange Principles"!
So Bai Hui changed his move again, using Xingyi Liuhe, his muscles and bones resonating together!
A strange and inexplicable background music began to play from within Bai Hui's body—
