Chapter 314: Turn-Based Battle

Ji Ruo dragged Liang Shixian back again. Liang Shixian was extremely shocked that Ji Ruo could freeze time.

He thought he was already accustomed to Ji Ruo's magic, but to freeze time, this was too outrageous!

Even Liang Shixian couldn't help asking, and Ji Ruo didn't hide it, saying, "Oh, I learned this when I was doing homework the day before school started."

Liang Shixian: “???”

Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

What kind of homework can freeze time? !

Ji Ruo frowned and said, "One person writes one stroke, and they created a miracle overnight!"

“…”

At this moment, Liang Shixian felt like cursing.

This is really outrageous!

The two of them joked around for a while and then went to check on Rosie's condition.

The good thing about the watch face painted on the body is that the time-stopping area can move with it. Although the range is not large, it is highly maneuverable.

Little Rosie... no, it should be called Big Rosie now.

After entering the time-stopping realm, tears were still flowing from Big Rosie's eyes. The tiger was lying alone in the pit wiping her tears, and it looked... a bit eye-catching to be honest.

Looking at Rosie's majestic yet gentle appearance, Ji Ruo couldn't feel distressed at all. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he couldn't say the words of comfort.

He raised his hand and touched Rosie's tiger-like body covered with scales, and secretly exerted his strength, combining his spiritual consciousness and true energy to sense Rosie's current situation.

I found out that this guy wasn't hurt at all. He looked like he was crying very sadly, but in fact he just suffered some physical pain, without even a bruise!

"That's enough, Mr. Cat. You're just a little bit hit by the dragon's tail. What's there to cry about?"

Luo Xi wiped her tears and said, "But I am a female cat."

"You can't cry, cats don't shed tears easily!" Ji Ruo glared at her, "If you want to cry, turn back to crying, you're crying like this is really too much."

Rosie's fighting form is handsome and powerful, and when she cries, Ji Ruo really can't feel sorry for her. He even feels a bit disappointed.

If it were a normal situation, Ji Ruo might still feel a little distressed, but in this case, Ji Ruo really couldn't feel distressed.

You look like this, how dare you cry?

"But Master, it really hurts."

Ji Ruo asked back, "Do you cry when it hurts?"

Luo Xi was crying and suddenly froze: "It hurts, why can't I cry?"

"Why are you crying?" Ji Ruo asked cheerfully, "Will crying stop hurting you?"

"Wuwu~Ah?" Luo Xi's brain was a little slow to react: "Huh?"

"So stop crying, take a break and relax. Don't cry. It's a waste of time to cry in such a handsome fighting form."

"What is Tianyong? Why do you have to lick it violently?"

"Anyway, you should change back first. I feel sick to see you crying like this."

"All right."

…

Rosie stopped fighting and finally got the comfort she deserved.

Ji Ruo was actually able to continue to feel sorry for Rosie and held her cute little body in his arms to comfort her.

Anyone who sees this scene will sigh with emotion, saying that the relationship between master and servant is really good.

Of course, Liang Shixian, who witnessed the whole process, was not among them.

He was frowning and thought, now you feel sad, what were you doing before?

But if you think about it carefully, Rosie's body length after transformation is more than three meters, which is a bit inconvenient to hold.

"Ji Ruo, are we just going to wait here?"

"Of course not." Ji Ruo shook his head slightly: "Let's take a break, recover a little, and then go out to find it... Squad leader, although you didn't cause any damage just now, I believe you must have some combat insights, right? You can take this opportunity to digest them well."

"...What do you mean by no damage!" Liang Shixian's face flushed. He pulled Ji Ruo to the motionless Ox-Horse Demon Dragon and pointed at a small hole on the dragon scale that was not much bigger than a little finger. He said, "Isn't this the damage I caused? My diamond drill penetrated the dragon scale!"

There is only one spot like this on the entire dragon body, and it was created by Liang Shixian.

Ji Ruo pointed at the knife marks all over the body of the Ox-Horse Demon Dragon and the slightly broken dragon scales everywhere, and said happily: "I hit these."

"…Every profession has its own specialty. My original strength was just resistance to damage."

Ji Ruo certainly did not mean to look down on Liang Shixian. Given their relationship, this was just a harmless little joke.

Liang Shixian wouldn't take it to heart.

After listening to Ji Ruo's words, he began to digest what he had gained from the battle.

The purpose of Bajitian Xunxi is to strengthen the body's self-healing ability. This ability is actually useless to Ji Ruo and the other two.

They have an unlimited supply of life-giving fruit from the Tongtian Jianmu. Although they cannot revive the dead, they can turn bones into flesh. So there is no need for them to make special training in this area.

Therefore, Xun Xi can actually develop in the direction of combat. The Qi Condensation into Weapons that Liang Shixian just realized is quite good. When combined with the Vajra Qi, it can even produce a strong sharp edge. Although it is not as good as the Vajra Axe Swinging of the third level of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art, it is enough at the current stage.

Condensing Qi into weapons is not as good as real weapons, but this aspect can be compensated by relying on various martial arts moods.

For example, sword intention, knife intention, fist intention... and so on.

The so-called 'Qi' is actually the breath of the human body, and it is easier to use than using one's own arms. In a sense, it can be considered an upgraded version of Qi and blood power. It is not as good as the true essence of martial arts, but it is not much different.

Moreover, because it is essentially the internal energy of the human body, it can be strengthened as one's own strength increases, which can be said to have a bright future.

Ji Ruo had just thought of this when he saw the condensed and lingering white breath exhaled by Liang Shixian.

Liang Shixian understood it after just a brief mention during the battle.

At this moment, Liang Shixian is trying to make this aura more condensed in order to increase its power.

Ji Ruo summoned his own Star Wheel. He had now opened up a total of four Star Wheels. The Star Wheel virtual images condensed and took shape according to Ji Ruo's will.

The diameter of the Steel Star Xuan Virtual Statue is eight meters, and the diameter of the Star Xuan Cave is five meters. Upon closer inspection, it is like a complete small world. Inside, a statue of a god sits upright, towering into the clouds. Under the statue, people live and work in peace and contentment. The houses are neatly built, and the men farm and the women weave. The power of faith that is constantly provided to Ji Ruo maintains his current realm of a two-star god, and his position as a god is forever secure.

Outside the Xingxuan Cave Heaven, the incarnation of the God of Truth was disassembled into countless crystal star points in order to guard the boundary of the cave heaven. Most of the mental attacks could not penetrate the Xingxuan Cave Heaven.

Then there is the Lava Star Swirl. Although it grows rapidly due to the characteristics of the Eight Extreme Heavens, it was only recently opened, and the virtual image is the smallest, with a diameter of only one meter. The virtual image is covered with volcanoes, lava, and thick smoke. Although it has no temperature, anyone who sees it for the first time will subconsciously have a burning feeling.

Finally, it was the Xingxuan Dantian that Ji Ruo had opened up at the very beginning.

It is the natural evolution of the body's martial arts qi and meridians to the ultimate state. There is no need to calculate the location of the acupoints; they are opened up naturally.

Ji Ruo's dantian grew in both of the two extreme regions he visited.

Because of Ji Ruo's inherent talent, 'more is better, bigger is stronger', its growth is almost unlimited. Even if it is a virtual image at this moment, its diameter is 18 meters and it is full of true essence. In the center there is a dazzling true essence crystal, emitting a powerful aura.

"Not bad, not bad." Ji Ruo nodded with satisfaction: "Big means strong, the ancients were not deceiving me!"

Liang Shixian, who was practicing martial arts, saw this scene and turned away silently.

He was afraid that he would not be able to help but curse his mother.

In other people's Star Xuan realm, the diameter of the Star Xuan virtual image is half a meter, even the smallest Star Xuan is twice as big as others, and it is still developing in the direction of solidity - is this a Star Xuan that can be cultivated by humans? !

He wasn't jealous, but he really wanted to curse.

Comparing yourself to others can really make you angry...

…

Seven hours and fifty-nine minutes later.

"Squad leader, are you ready?"

Ji Ruo, who was in full condition, looked at Liang Shixian seriously.

"alright!"

Liang Shixian reviewed the past and gained some new insights. It was time to put it into practice: "Ji Ruo, please notify me in advance during the next halftime break."

"Okay, then--" Ji Ruo clapped his wrists: "Second round, begin!"

"--roar!"

The dragon roars continued, and the super-saturation and magic attacks continued to cover them. Ji Ruo and the other two dodged and moved, occasionally launching attacks.

The Ox-Horse Dragon is huge in size and quite agile, but compared with a warrior, its agility is not enough and it looks a bit clumsy.

Having learned her lesson, Rosie stopped transforming and just lay obediently on Ji Ruo's back, assisting him with her talents.

There was no suitable place to stand on the armor, and Ji Ruo was worried that Rosie would not be able to lie down steadily, so he specially put a small backpack for Rosie on the shoulder armor so that Rosie could stay inside.

This time, Ji Ruo did not use the sword, but chose to fight head-on with his physical strength.

Since his advancement, he has not tested the limits of his physical body.

Three star wheels surrounded Xingxuan Dantian and rotated slowly behind Ji Ruo. The terrifying force penetrated his whole body, layer by layer.

"Shake the Mountain, Tai Chi!"

Ji Ruo raised his hand and hit it with a moving punch. The Ox-Horse Demon Dragon had a strong body. Even though it was hundreds of meters long, its muscle density was terrifyingly high and its weight was at least thousands of tons. However, it was directly knocked away by Ji Ruo's moving punch.

At this moment, the power that Ji Ruo gained from the Xingxuan Dantian alone was 180 tons. A swing of his arm could exert a force of several hundred thousand pounds. The warrior's strength was extremely subtle, and his special way of using strength could make his strength even stronger.

Hundreds of tons of force, after being added by 'Shaking the Mountain', were blasted out in the form of Tai Chi Ban Ban Chui. In this secret realm where there is an upper limit to one's strength and the rules of heaven and earth are incomplete, there was a loud explosion, and even the space was distorted and some cracks appeared, which shows how terrifying the power is.

The huge body of the Ox-Horse Dragon flew backwards and collapsed a volcano, embedding itself deeply into the ruins, with the horror still in its eyes.

To be honest, in all its years of existence, this is the first time it has lost in a power contest with humans.

It lay on the mountain wall, squinting its dragon eyes, trying to see Ji Ruo as clearly as possible, but -

The Ox-Horse Dragon felt a huge force coming from beneath it, and its huge horse face was full of confusion.

It heard another human roar coming from beneath it: "Ji Ruo! Go on!"

Afterwards, the Ox-Horse Demon Dragon flew up again, but was actually lifted up and thrown out by Liang Shixian!

Liang Shixian's hands and feet were shaking: "It's so heavy, I almost couldn't lift it... Hey hey hey! I didn't throw it out!"

In fact, if he was not a practitioner of hard skills, his physical fitness would have been stronger than that of the warriors of the same level, and he also had the support of diamond armor, otherwise he would not have been able to withstand the ox, horse, and magic dragon.

He is different from Ji Ruo, his Xing Xuan is too small.

Just lifting it up and throwing it out had already used up all his strength, and yet, he only threw the Ox-Horse Dragon one or two meters. Compared to its huge body of hundreds of meters, these one or two meters were simply insignificant.

Seeing that the Bull-Horse Dragon was about to hit him, and he no longer had the strength to lift it, Liang Shixian's eyes widened: "Ji Ruo! Pause! Pause! I want to take a break at halftime!"

"Okay!"

The confused Bull-Horse Dragon was frozen again.

In the time-stopping area, Liang Shixian breathed a sigh of relief.

"Squad leader, why didn't you use 'Shaking the Mountain'?" Ji Ruo asked, "'Shaking the Mountain' is a method of explosive power in the Eight Extreme Heavens. If you had used 'Shaking the Mountain', you wouldn't have been so ferocious just now."

Liang Shixian said awkwardly, "Haven't you ever practiced in the icy and snowy regions?"

"I haven't been there, but it's just a little less powerful. It's still usable."

"...Well, actually I haven't mastered this trick yet."

"Is that so?" Ji Ruo suddenly realized: "Then you should do your best."

Ji Ruo's Eight Extreme Heavens was passed down to him directly by the system teacher, and he reached the entry-level directly and mastered it completely.

Liang Shixian is different. He has to start from scratch.

The fantasy martial arts Bajitian, which can automatically grow according to the polar environment, is naturally difficult to learn. Although Liang Shixian is very talented, it is impossible for him to master all the skills of Bajitian so quickly.

On the one hand, there was no suitable extreme place for practice. On the other hand, the time that Ji Ruo spent teaching Liang Shixian to practice the Eight Extreme Heavens was too short.

Luo Xi jumped off Ji Ruo's back and punched them with her little fists to help Ji Ruo and Liang Shixian relax their muscles and bones.

"Luo Xi is so good." Liang Shixian praised with a smile.

Luo Xi said proudly: "You want me to tell you? I am the most obedient cat in the world!"

"Okay, I told you you're fat and you're still out of breath." Ji Ruo said happily.

Luo Xi was puzzled: "You said I was fat? When did you say that? Why didn't I hear it? I'm obviously not fat!"

"Ha ha!"

Ji Ruo turned his head and looked at the motionless Ox-Horse Dragon.

So far, it seems that this dragon has a good nature.

Although this guy had killed many people and even massacred many times, those were just unintentional mistakes. Not to mention that the people they killed before were all the indigenous people of the secret realm, the fact that this guy later came here to live in seclusion because of guilt was enough for Ji Ruo to look at him with a higher regard.

This is a demon dragon, one of the best among all the monsters. He actually felt guilty for his mistakes and even thought about apologizing, although he failed in the end...

Of all the monsters Ji Ruo had ever seen, this dragon was the kindest one—except, of course, Rosie, because the little guy was no longer a normal monster.

Monsters believe that their own evolutionary mechanism is special, and most of the time, they don't even care too much about their own kind. After all, after evolving, they may no longer be their original species.

Not to mention killing people, even killing among the same species occurs from time to time, and there are many examples of cannibalism for the sake of evolution.

This dragon is a top monster, which is really strange.

Moreover, when it first appeared, it just wanted to drive Ji Ruo and others away. It was probably really worried about waking up the God of Fire, but the words "give face to the gods behind Ji Ruo and others" were probably just casually said.

Even just now, before it knew the strength of Ji Ruo and the others, it actually held back a lot of strength when it attacked, and only gradually let go later.

Even so, those attacks looked extremely terrifying, but that was because it had no way of confirming the positions of Ji Ruo and others. It had a congenital defect of severe farsightedness, which also caused problems in its mental perception.

I can only perceive it vaguely, not clearly. The oversaturation and magic attacks are just out of habit.

After some contact, Ji Ruo had a general idea of ​​the dragon's character.

This dragon has poor eyesight and is extremely concerned about its reputation... For now, it seems that we can still communicate and cooperate normally.

However, we will talk about that after the fight.

"Have you had a good rest, squad leader?"

"alright."

"Okay, then, round three - begin!"

…
