Chapter 68: Finding Your Own Way
In the months that followed, Bai Ke didn't mention anything about his travels. He felt that he was not stable enough, he was easily complacent and arrogant, and he looked down on himself. When Aisha traveled to the mainland, she also set off when she reached the level of a senior martial artist. Now Bai Ke is only equivalent to an intermediate martial artist, so he wants to travel, on the one hand, because he has been practicing martial arts for a long time, he has a certain confidence in his skills, and he also has a certain arrogance; On the other hand, he also wants to get rid of Dinah's control and explore Arad on his own.
It's a pity that reality gave him a blow to the head, and he was near death several times in the battle with Kaino, and he was afraid and didn't dare to take risks again.
Kaino's strength made Bai Ke realize that Arad had no NPC, and just a small boss in the early stage of the game had a strength comparable to that of an awakened powerhouse, which was obviously out of place with reality. The monsters and lords in the game can be created out of thin air, and their strength is predetermined. The strong men of Arad have all been trained, fought, and survived the fight. They may be violent, they may be shameless, they may have all kinds of shortcomings, but they will not be weak. If they were weak, they wouldn't be able to live to the present, let alone grow to that height. Changzaburo is like this, Poison Elvis King is like this, and Luo Lei Kaino is even more so.
Thinking about this, Bai Ke suddenly felt that he was too shallow in the past. Using lord monsters as NPCs, this is really too long.
Don't dare to take risks, Bai Ke is good enough to continue practicing in the base. In the battle with Kaino, Bai Ke still gained a lot, not to mention that the passionate and exuberant emotions in the face of a strong enemy can promote the cultivation of dark energy, and the joy of defeating a strong enemy also made his heart stir with self-esteem and self-confidence, and the near-death fear of escaping death also made him more awe-inspiring enemies, life, and the world.
It can be said that after going through a brutal battle, as long as you can survive and summarize, you can always gain a lot. It's a pity that Bai Ke can't get used to such an experience, so he can only thank Bumin. After all, after a long time, he will eventually encounter ghosts, and now he really doesn't want to die.
Death always urges people to improve, after three months of recuperation and consolidation, Bai Ke will suddenly train the dark energy to the neck down, just need to practice the head and face again, you can advance the strength. It's a pity that this last step is really not easy to walk, the head is the head of the six yangs, full of many nerves and blood vessels, but it lacks large motor muscles, and the strength in this area is not good, and it may also damage the blood vessels and nerves, so Bai Ke's progress is slow.
It took more than a month, and the dark energy stopped at the neck, and he was never able to train his head and face, and Bai Ke was a little anxious. After many life-and-death battles, he has a thirst for strength, and there is nothing more uncomfortable for him at this time than not being able to progress.
On this day, Bai Ke was meticulously punching in the base, every punch and kick was full of strength and will, and he was cultivating his own revised version of the Otherworldly National Technique. To be honest, the previous few failed crusades hit his confidence hard. After all, this is what he really tries to do, but in the end it always leads to failure. He didn't know what the reason was, he could only blame himself for being too weak and taking it for granted. If you are strong enough, you can directly break the game with force; If he is smart enough, he will plot and kill his opponent many times, but unfortunately he doesn't touch either.
If it weren't for Bai Ke's true love for martial arts now, he would have been depressed and given up a long time ago, and the blow would have been too great. Even now, he is mired in deep self-doubt and does not know where to go.
Based on his own experience, he judged that if he could have a hearty battle at this time, he would definitely be able to break through his martial arts under the terrifying pressure of decisive battle intent and death. But he had fought against Kaino before, and he had died too many times, and now he really can't muster the courage to go to the abuse.
Bai Ke wants to find another way to break through, after all, he can't use the battle of life and death to break through every time he encounters a bottleneck! Moreover, Aisha's advanced strength was natural back then, and she didn't experience any major battles. Now that I think about it, is it because the way I have been making progress is wrong?
Bai Ke fell into deep thought, he reorganized the principles of the national arts he knew, although he didn't have a deep understanding of the national arts, but in his opinion, the core of the national arts was one - the whole strength.
As long as you can concentrate all your strength on one point, you can burst out with unparalleled destructive power. It is not impossible to destroy mountains and rocks, and even go further, tearing the earth and stopping rivers is not impossible. The future is good, but it is very difficult to do it. Manpower is sometimes poor, not to mention whether you can integrate the force into a subtle enough, and your body will not be able to withstand the powerful reaction force alone. How to solve this problem, Bai Ke felt that it was not only necessary to explore the use of magic power, but also to think about some mysterious things.
"Huh?" Thinking of this, Bai Ke was a little stunned, and he suddenly remembered some other martial arts concepts in his hometown. In many martial arts novels, martial arts practice is often divided into five aspects: mind, body, qi, technique, and potential.
Heart: All the cultivation of spirit, will, heart, and emotion basically belongs to the martial arts of the heart, focusing on the insight and tempering of one's own heart, and the stronger the heart, the greater the potential for people to explode. Many of the so-called explosions are caused by the explosion of psychic power. The sanda fighting technique practiced by Bai Ke has a bonus in this aspect, and the emotional power required for the explosion of dark energy is a kind of "heart".
Body: Refers to all concepts related to the body, including strength, constitution, vitality, etc. Systematic martial arts generally focus on the training of one's own body. Bai Ke's strongest now is undoubtedly the "body", thanks to Bakar's gift, the dragon vein physique is a cow. If you convert the physique bonus brought by the dragon king's bloodline, it is equivalent to the physical strength +300% and strength +200% in the DNF game, which is worthy of Bai Ke's hanging.
Qi: This generally refers to the use of energy, which is more typical of the qigong master's mindfulness. If the scope is expanded, the power of the berserker's qi and blood, the sword energy of the sword soul, and the fluctuating power of the asura all belong to the category of "qi". "Qi" in a broad sense can refer to all supernatural forces. In this regard, Bai Ke's sanda fighting skills are a little weak, but they are not completely devoid of the use of "qi" (I don't know if you guessed it, strength is the qi of a martial artist). Bai Ke is undoubtedly weak in terms of "qi".
Shu: This is a general term for all techniques. Finding the enemy's flaws with unique techniques and fine calculations in order to break through weakly and achieve greater damage is "art". In Aradd, "techniques" are generally referred to as skills, moves are called active skills, and exercises are passive skills.
Potential: There are two kinds of potential, one is a person's own potential, such as Bakar's dragon power, Kaino's domineering, etc., which are usually related to the individual's heart and qi, and can be regarded as the person's inner appearance. The other is to use the natural power of heaven and earth to turn into one's own power, such as the Qigong Master's Nian Beast, the Thunder Emperor of the Asura Advent, the Elemental Meteor Disillusionment, etc.
If you think about it, these five concepts apply equally to Arad. Because this is a concept with broad applicability, not something concrete and microscopic real.
Bai Ke took a seat, compared his previous friends and enemies, and began to analyze his strengths and weaknesses.
"Heart" is undoubtedly Bai Ke's shortcoming. After all, he was born as an otaku, and his heart and will have never been his strong point. If he has the opportunity, he will not give up, but in the face of too strong enemies and too dangerous situations, he is still prone to despair and give up, for example, he once lost his will to fight under Kaino's fierce power. On the contrary, his enemies Chozaburo and Kaino have fought until the last moment, never giving up, and they are much stronger than him
"Body", Bai Ke's strong point, thanks to Bakar's gift, he has never seen a body stronger than his own among the unawakened people. It's a pity that he has limited development of his body and has not been able to exert his true strength.
"Qi" is Bai Ke's weakness again, and when he became a sanda fighter, he lost the opportunity to directly manipulate and control his magic, and could only indirectly promote the explosion of strength with his emotional will. Compared with those high-energy creatures, such as Luo Lei Kaino, there is a world of difference in "qi".
"Technique": Bai Ke is still weak in this aspect. He is not a martial arts genius, he has been practicing martial arts in the Salene Martial Arts Gym for several years, and his skills can only be said to be decent, with no accidents and no spirituality. In this regard, both Chozaburo and Kaino are stronger than him. Chang Saburo's "three-plate axe" is perfect, and Kaino's fast swordsmanship is irresistible, and it is not comparable to Bai Ke.
"Potential", Bai Ke's absolute weakness, he has almost no potential, if weakness is not a potential. Bai Ke himself has no temper, introverted and sensitive, and extremely unconfident, so he always seems very weak. Although the practice of martial arts has changed some of his temperament, it has not changed internally. On the other hand, Changzaburo and Kainuo, Changzaburo fights from childhood to adulthood, and he has a fierce and vicious atmosphere, and he is not angry and self-threatening, and can even scare crying children; Kaino is strong and ambitious, and the victory in the long-term campaign has even made it develop a domineering spirit, which makes people think that it is a heroic figure at a glance. Tsk, Bai Ke is too far behind them.
In such a comparison, Bai Ke is still a waste wood in other aspects, except for the powerful body gifted by Bakar. When Bai Ke realized this, his whole body was a little depressed.
