610 Absolute Skills (1/2)

Although Bu Xingyi's power was astonishing, after their first few encounters the power of his attack had been reduced by seventy percent. However, Bu Xingyi believed that even thirty percent of his power would be enough to kill this junior.

Mo Wen's gaze remained calm throughout. He knew that against a Martial Arts Grandmaster,a failure to remain calm would be likely to lead to his death.

If he didn't utilize any special method, he could only rely on his calmness and ability now. Of course, he could utilize the pride of this Martial Arts Grandmaster.

He believed that when a Martial Arts Grandmaster faced ancient martial art practitioners like him, they would not fight to the best of their ability straight away. That was because the Martial Arts Grandmaster was so confident in himself, believing that he could easily kill an ancient martial art practitioner like Mo Wen.

That was exactly what Bu Xingyi was thinking right now: he believed that even when his attack was at thirty percent power, it was enough to kill Mo Wen.

A fog enveloped Mo Wen, causing his body to momentarily turn nebulous. The next moment, streaks of starlight dispersed from his body. The twinkling stars were mesmerizing.

The Glory of Cloud! It was the martial arts teaching among the three Glory techniques that only focused on skill. At the same time, it was the martial arts teaching with the strongest defensive ability among those that Mo Wen had learned.

The Glory of Thunder focused on power, the Glory of Wind on speed and the Glory of Cloud on skill. But by extension, the Glory of Cloud focused on defense.

There were two types of defense. One was sturdy and one was nimble. The sturdy type of defense was considered to be a form of fortification. The nimble type was considered to be a form of active guarding. The method of the Glory of Cloud was a very rare method of active guarding. It could utilize its mysterious skills to continuously weaken the enemy's attack.

All the stars and lights gathered and formed a nebula in front of Mo Wen. The whole process seemed slow, but actually, only took a brief moment.

Bu Xingyi's fist had yet to hit Mo Wen when it first landed on the nebula.

”Huh?” A glint of incredulity flashed in Bu Xingyi's eyes. The absolute confidence vanished from his eyes. His expression turned serious for the first time.

When his fist made contact with the nebula, the speed of his attack had actually slowed down drastically.

By rights, his punch was very powerful; yet he could not destroy the nebula. It was as though his attack had landed on cotton, yet it was also as though his punch had landed on rubber with astonishing tenacity. His power was slowing down at a terrifying speed.

If the nebula was just cotton, he could penetrate through it. If it was just rubber, he could crush it. But this was the first time he had encountered such a feeling where his force seemed to be ineffective and his power was constantly reflected back at him.

”Absolute Skills! How is it possible?”

In the end, Bu Xingyi's final thirty percent of power was depleted in the nebula. But the nebula seemed to have also reached its limit, gradually dissipating until it disappeared.

Bu Xingyi looked at Mo Wen incredulously. This youth could actually use Absolute Skills against him. How was that possible? He was a Martial Arts Grandmaster. He had practiced for more than two hundred years, and this youth was at most just a later stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. The difference between the two of them was like the difference between heaven and earth. How could Mo Wen have possibly used Absolute Skills against him? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

Absolute Skills was a term used in duels between ancient martial art practitioners. Duels between ancient martial art practitioners not only pitted their cultivations against each other but also their martial arts teachings attainments.

Under normal circumstances, when the two of them had similar cultivation, it was a common sight for the person who had deeper martial arts teachings attainments to defeat his opponent. Of course, if the difference in cultivation was large, then it would be very difficult to use martial arts teachings attainments to make up for it.

However, there was still one more possibility and that was Absolute Skills.

Absolute Skills described a form of relativity. For example, when the difference between the martial arts teachings attainments of two people was too large, then a condition of Absolute Skills would appear.

In duels, if Absolute Skills occurred, it did not matter whether the opponent's realm was one or two ranks higher. With the vast difference in martial arts teachings attainments, the person could still defeat the person of higher realm cultivation.

An ancient martial art practitioner like Bu Xingyi, as a Martial Arts Grandmaster who had practiced for more than two centuries, did not need to have his martial arts teachings attainments mentioned.

In this world, it would be almost impossible for anyone to use Absolute Skills against him. Even a Martial Arts Grandmaster with higher cultivation would not have the ability to do so.

For a Martial Arts Grandmaster to use Absolute Skills, the absolute suppression of martial arts, on a later stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner was a very simple task.

But for a later stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner to use Absolute Skills when dueling a Martial Arts Grandmaster was almost impossible. No one would believe it had happened if they were told so. Moreover, Mo Wen was just a youth. How many years could he have practiced, and how deep could his martial arts teachings attainments be?

However, just now, against the mass of nebula, Bu Xingyi indeed felt the suppression of Absolute Skills. That could only be the suppression from martial arts teachings attainments. Otherwise, it was impossible for such a situation to occur.

”Old thing, don't think too highly of yourself. There are many capable people in the world,” Mo Wen said coldly.
