Tian Jihong was not clear at this time, and fellow spirit beast cultivators could generally practice beast skills similar to martial arts. Beast skills are not much different from martial arts in nature, they all use the spiritual power in the body to transform the usually rotten attacks into powerful moves. Since beasts do not have the same intelligence as humans before they transform into spirit beasts, except for very rare cases, it is impossible for ordinary beasts that have failed to cultivate spiritual power to use beast skills, and even rarer than ordinary humans to practice martial arts, after all, ordinary humans can still use their own wisdom to simplify and improve their martial arts into their own application, and beasts obviously can't do this.

If you really want to say the biggest difference between beast skills and martial arts, it is the requirements for military science. Because the application of monks' martial arts is based on the practice of their own weapons, except for the fists and palms, the most obvious difference in beast skills is that beasts do not use weapons, and their beast skills are evolved for their own strange attack parts, such as melee claws, heads, tails, bodies, and even breath, jets, sound waves, toxins, etc. Therefore, for monks and spirit beasts, beast skills and martial arts can only imitate and learn from each other at most; If you want to be exactly the same, it is impossible for a monk to completely cultivate beast skills.

In the martial arts world, there are a small number of spirit beasts that have awakened the ancient bloodline, and they can comprehend the spirit beast skills inherited in the blood on their own. Like the peerless learning inherited by the ancient martial arts family among the monks, such a noble bloodline existence is often destined to be able to crush other spirit beasts of the same level as soon as they are born, and there is no need to spend a long time to evolve the natal skills that have not yet been transformed into their own suitable spirit beast skills. Correspondingly, for other ordinary spirit beasts who do not have such talent, it is a very long and difficult process to deduce and master a beast skill of their own; For example, the claw technique of the snake turtle in front of him is obviously an attempt to evolve the original attack form of his own claw to break the enemy, and evolve it into his own natal beast skill through the method of spiritual power urging. However, even with the terrifying power it has now, in fact, this claw has not yet reached the level of the spirit beast technique, and it is not yet complete. When one day this snake turtle truly mastered his claw technique perfectly, such an opponent in front of him, who could not even be called a spirit beast, was afraid that he would have no power to resist at all.

Although the earth salamander couldn't make a sound, judging from its rapid curling up in a ball after sensing the huge paw prints falling from the sky, it could be said that it had been prepared for this move of its old rival. Finally, at this moment, the huge paw prints of the spiritual power flowing collided with the earth salamander below, which had already rolled its body into a round ball, and the sharp claws like blades that were urged by the spiritual power to slide on the dense scales on the salamander's back, making a sour "zizi" sound. I have to say that the scale armor born from the mutation of the earth salamander does have some doorways, and it has not been easily cut in the blade blessed by spiritual power, and this strong protection can be said to perfectly make up for the salamander's own worrying defense, so that it has more room and means to maneuver against the enemy now.

However, this earth salamander is not a spirit beast after all, and even if it is blocked by scales under such a terrifying attack, it is difficult for it to be unscathed. As the deafening cracking sound gradually dissipated, Tian Jihong saw that there were still three slender claw marks left behind the salamander, during which the red surging with a trace of beast blood flowed, and then dripped onto the surface of the scales below; I think that if it hadn't been blocked by scales just now, most of the strength of this claw had been removed, and I am afraid that the earth salamander would have been cut into several pieces at this time. The severe pain once again caused the latter to tremble all over his body, but it has been fighting with its opponent for decades, and it actually expected this result, as long as it took the opponent's blow without dying, there was still a chance to fight back.

In addition to the few paw prints that hit the earth salamander, because the latter shrank in time, there were two other paw prints that missed the target, and finally landed in the quagmire, cutting two cracks nearly two feet deep on the surface. After unleashing such a powerful beast technique, the violent fluctuations around the snake turtle also temporarily stagnated, and it seemed that it had fallen into a short trough and was only waiting to regain its spiritual power. However, this is exactly the fighter that its opponent is waiting for, under the powerful impact of the claw just now, the snake turtle that is still in mid-air is still in mid-air due to the rapid decline of the spiritual power in its body, and is shocked by the force of the claw technique when it has no time to resist, and finally staggered to a stop several meters away on the left side of the salamander.

The salamander would not miss such an opportunity, and before the head could hit the ground, he had already endured the wound on his body, and once again unfolded its huge body, and once again waved its powerful tail towards the place where the snake turtle landed. At this time, the snake turtle, which had just landed on the ground and was still a little staggering, naturally sensed the approach of danger through his soul sense, so he was a snake tail that swung and rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding the vertical giant tail. As far as the eye can see, both sides are a little embarrassed at this time, and as the salamander seizes the opportunity of the opponent's loss of strength to force the latter, a fierce hand-to-hand combat suddenly breaks out between the two.

I saw that in the mud, two figures with a large difference in size were writhing back and forth in a space with a diameter of only two feet, which looked really strange from a distance. Claws, webs, scales, shells, and tails collided fiercely in mid-air for a while, and from time to time, there were viscous liquids and broken scales scattered and flying under the coercion of the mud, and this continuous collision couldn't help but make Tianjihong on the side look a little dazzled, and for a while it was a little unclear who had the upper hand on both sides. But fortunately, after more than ten rounds, the two finally pulled apart; At this time, Tian Jihong realized that under the brute force just now, while the snake turtle had not yet mobilized its spiritual power, it was the earth salamander on the side that gradually gained an advantage. In the last collision between the webbed and claws of the two sides, the snake turtle still suffered a loss of size after all; In the case that his strength was not as good as that of his opponent, he was forced out two feet away by the force of the shock because he was too small, and rolled several times in mid-air before hitting the ground; On the other hand, his opponent was constantly unloaded in the quagmire due to his huge size, and he stabilized his body just by trembling.

Tian Jihong even admired the strong strength of the earth salamander at this time, although he still didn't understand why this snake turtle didn't exert the power that a spirit beast should have throughout the whole process, but just the fact that the earth salamander could compete with the spirit beast in terms of physical strength, and even suppress it steadily, was enough to make him proud. Of course, Tian Jihong, who still has a good grasp of the situation, will definitely not easily judge that the salamander will win the final victory at this time. Let's not talk about what the hell the snake turtle is doing and can't exert its full strength, just the previous battle, Tian Jihong knows very well that the snake turtle is best at defense rather than strength, just now most of it relied on the body of the spirit beast to fight with the opponent for so long a day. However, once it comes to its senses and begins to use its defensive advantages to deal with its opponents, it will be difficult to break through the defense and cause effective damage to the salamander's attack, and it will only need to shrink its shell to defend until it has re-condensed its spiritual power, and it can easily turn the tide and launch a counterattack.

Sure enough, as a snake turtle that had already cultivated spiritual wisdom, when he found that he could not compete with his opponent with his physical body, he began to change his thinking. In fact, it stands to reason that in the competition with the opponent for many years, it has long been aware of the strengths and weaknesses of the other party, and it has just been stiff with the salamander for so long, most of which is just a test of its own strength; After all, he knew very well in his heart that even if he could suppress the strength of the other party, he would not be able to really hit himself hard. However, at this point, it is obvious that the two sides are really going to start to divide life and death; At this time, the snake turtle didn't care so much, and when he saw that the other party was swept by another tail whip, the former did not choose to touch it again, but directly curled up his limbs and long snake neck in the turtle shell, leaving only a snake tail outside to control the direction of movement of the body.

This is no less powerful than the first tail whip when the two fight, and it completely falls on the shell of the snake turtle. At this time, the terrifying impact that could have shaken the surface silt up to a foot high was precisely smashed on the turtle shell that was only the size of two palms, but it dissipated into the air silently like a mud cow entering the sea; The only thing that could be seen was on the turtle shell, and the patchwork lines became brighter at that moment, creating an invisible barrier on the surface of the turtle shell. When the whip came into contact with the shell, its power seemed to be dissolved by the barrier, spreading out in all directions around it; The barrier showed no signs of breaking, only a circle of ripples, and the snake and turtle shrouded beneath it were unscathed.

Seeing that his blow was fruitless, the soil salamander was not reconciled, and under the instinctive drive, it was like when he had just fought again, and he flicked his tail whip one after another to launch a continuous attack on the hard turtle shell, and at the same time, his webbed palms also shook the snake turtle in front of him like kicking a ball from time to time, trying to find the weak point of the opponent's defense in all directions. It's just that after dozens of attacks were still fruitless, the speed of the twitching salamander's tail has begun to slow down slowly, and looking at the snake turtle that has been rolling on the ground several times, it still doesn't seem to have changed much; Only the gleaming snake tail that remained outside the shell showed a few scars, but the shrunken snake turtle didn't seem to care about it at all.
