Chapter 3048 Control of Evasion

Zhang Xuezhou had seen the monks who worked tirelessly on the giant tree until their demise.

These monks are like tireless worker ants, busy until the moment of their demise.

Zhang Xuezhou may also have been affected by this, as he does not need sleep.

"Clap clap clap!"

It was already very late at night, and even though Huo Qubing's legs were somewhat unsteady, Wei Shao'er tied him up with ropes and took him to bed.

Zhang Xuezhou unleashed his magical power, his body occasionally emitting crackling sounds.

The Yin-Yang School's realm technique brought immense magical power. Forty percent of the magical power was not much for Zhang Xuezhou, but it was still more powerful than that of most cultivators in the Sovereign Realm.

Zhang Xuezhou had few spells that consumed a lot of magical power, only a handful of techniques such as the Yellow Sand Entanglement Technique, Sand Transformation Technique, Yang Soul Transformation Technique, and Soul-Inverted Beast Control Technique. Techniques involving evasion and other abilities consumed very little magical power.

He continued operating until late at night, but only about 10% of his magical power was consumed.

"Stop the war! Open the gates!"

The magical power flows continuously within the acupoints, and the unique circulation method brings about different kinds of power.

Zhang Xuezhou's acupoints emitted bursts of sounds, and shimmering light continuously swept across his body.

"If we don't engage in a battle of attrition, the Ceasefire Technique should be able to evade the killing power of the Crimson Sky Sword!"

As Zhang Xuezhou glanced at the Crimson Sky Sword wrapped in a long blue cloth, his fear of the sword gradually subsided.

He was someone who was practically dancing on the grave of Emperor Gaozu, and he had a deep-seated grudge against the Crimson Sky Sword. He was highly wary of this kind of high-risk product that had a spirit but low intelligence.

This is similar to the feeling of an ordinary person encountering a mentally ill person; you never know when the other person will have an episode, yet you still need to take care of them.

Zhang Xuezhou coveted the Crimson Sky Sword. He wanted to use it but was also afraid of being unexpectedly killed by the opponent, causing him to be constantly torn between hope and fear.

He only calmed down after his physical abilities were gradually restored and even began to reach the level of the Sovereign Realm.

Within the acupoints, magical power continuously flows and connects.

The second transformation of the Bigu Technique into supernatural powers had a profound impact. It not only enabled Zhang Xuezhou to reach the mid-stage of mastery in the art of evasion, reaching the level of 80,000, but also made it possible for other evasion techniques to reach this level. Furthermore, it provided a reference for the transformation of evasion techniques into supernatural powers.

Zhang Xuezhou was able to promote the practice effectively simply by referring to the Bigu formula.

"Come and try my sword!"

Zhang Xuezhou reached out and waved towards the distance.

Wei Shao'er's face emerged from the darkness.

"Are you sure?" Wei Shao'er asked hesitantly.

“If you’re afraid of hurting me, you can pierce my palm with your sword,” Zhang Xuezhou said. “Judging from my skill in healing Xiao Huo, you should know very well that I can also heal my own hand after being injured!”

"Then let me try!"

Wei Shao'er leaped out lightly.

She didn't dare to use her long-range killing move carelessly. Instead, after running dozens of steps, she thrust her sword horizontally into Zhang Xuezhou's palm.

"interesting!"

Of all the methods of evasion, the "Stop the War" technique is the easiest to test and determine the results of.

This spell can neutralize the killing power of metal objects as long as they come close.

As the short sword pierced towards his palm, it slid to the side, deviating from the killing intent, just as it had always done. Zhang Xuezhou saw Wei Shao'er's arm tremble unnaturally, and he twisted his body and quickly flipped back.

"how did you do that?"

An incredulous look crossed Wei Shao'er's eyes.

Not only did her short sword strike miss its intended target, but she also received an electric shock as it veered off to the side of Zhang Xuezhou's palm.

"Are you releasing a palm lightning bolt?" Wei Shao'er asked suspiciously.

"I have a general idea of ​​the effects. If you want to try this technique, feel free to do so!"

Zhang Xuezhou did not explain the "Stop the War" technique to Wei Shao'er.

The normal Zhigejutsu does not carry this kind of counterattack power that is like a soft hedgehog armor, but the supernatural Zhigejutsu is different.

This ability will rebound to a certain extent depending on the power of the strike; the stronger the strike, the greater the rebound power.

Seeing Wei Shao'er's hands and feet tremble after testing the Three-Five Sword Technique and dare not try it again, Zhang Xuezhou was still very satisfied with the performance of the Ceasefire Technique. Compared to the Grade B Taiqingzhen Technique, the Evasion Technique, which was worthy of being classified as a Grade A technique, was superior in terms of growth potential.

Similarly, we can deduce the development of his other avoidance techniques, including the Poison Avoidance Technique, which is extremely important to Zhang Xuezhou.

The cultivation practices in this world once again provided guidance and also offered a reference for Zhang Xuezhou in reality.

If it weren't for the difficulty in pushing the Realm Technique to the True Self Realm, Zhang Xuezhou would really like to see what happens at a higher realm.

"It is the power of control!"

He closed his eyes, feeling the special effects of the supernatural powers brought about by the rapid mastery of evasion techniques.

Each method of avoidance signifies that Zhang Xuezhou possesses a controlling power to evade erosion.

He did not control wind, fire, water, or earth, but spells that used these elements as their form of expression could hardly harm him.

Unless one pushes the power to the level of a domain, or relies on some special divine weapons or magical treasures, it is impossible to break the power he controls.

At the level of the Sole Self Realm, no matter what tricks or techniques a cultivator may have, if the opponent cannot exceed the range of erosion that Zhang Xuezhou can avoid, they will inevitably be brought to the same level as Zhang Xuezhou. In the end, the only way to determine the winner is through hand-to-hand combat and fighting with Zhang Xuezhou. The Body Technique makes up for Zhang Xuezhou's weakness in this aspect.

"If I can develop this into a complex domain, or even switch to evasion techniques based on my body's instincts in response to my opponent's attacks, it means I'll have a huge advantage in one-on-one combat!"

For Zhang Xuezhou at present, as long as he doesn't encounter a group attack that causes his evasion techniques to frequently switch out of control, he has a very high advantage in one-on-one combat.

Zhang Xuezhou had a vague feeling that the difficulty of this switching evasion technique would change in the True Self Realm.

Perhaps a perfect evasion technique can automatically adapt to the body's needs, or it may generate an extremely complex fusion domain, thereby making up for this lack of specificity.

He found it difficult to be certain about everything in the Realm of True Self, but by constantly referencing and deducing the situations in the Realm of Supernatural Power and the Realm of Sole Self, Zhang Xuezhou imagined the changes that came with a more solid foundation.

"The control I possess now is very complex. Apart from being unaffected by 'fast and slow,' the control over elements such as feng shui and water might be difficult to manifest due to avoidance. For example, my cloud-riding technique would be difficult to transform into a second supernatural power, not to mention the sand-entanglement technique..."

Zhang Xuezhou kept pondering.

He only opened his eyes when he felt a kicking force in his chest.

"You...you're so strong, you probably don't need me to protect you anymore, right?"

Ten meters away, Wei Shao'er held a short sword and raised his leg to rub it repeatedly, a look of pain flashing across his face from time to time.

Wei Shao'er has been affected by the gourd pills over the years, which makes her move slowly and look like a lady from a wealthy family, but Wei Shao'er has never been that type.

Sneak attacks were commonplace for Wei Shao'er. After unleashing several sword strikes that made his body tremble, Wei Shao'er, unable to discern Zhang Xuezhou's magic, chose to kick Zhang Xuezhou away to see what would happen.

She never expected that her kick would almost break her toe, while Zhang Xuezhou only swayed and took half a step back.

When Wei Shao'er recalled Huo Qubing mentioning that Zhang Xuezhou could easily defeat ten of him, he couldn't help but feel deeply frustrated, as if a joke had come true.

Zhang Xuezhou could take her down with his eyes closed; beating ten Wei Shao'ers would indeed be a piece of cake.

Wei Shao'er couldn't understand why Zhang Xuezhou, with his strength, would still be interested in her, and even invest valuable pills in her.

“I am indeed a little bit stronger than you, but even the strongest fists can't fight against many hands,” Zhang Xuezhou shook his head and said, “I’ve gotten into some trouble and I really need your help!”

"My abilities are limited..."

"You have no scruples, and you don't shy away from using underhanded methods. I desperately need a partner like you!"

Zhang Xuezhou expressed his views very seriously.

Wei Shao'er felt that Zhang Xuezhou was praising her, but she also felt that Zhang Xuezhou's praise was not nice, which made it difficult for Wei Shao'er to be happy.

“And I have high hopes for you,” Zhang Xuezhou said.

"Keep an eye on me?"

“A student who can be favored and nurtured by the Holy Mother of Wudang cannot be bad. You have wasted nearly ten years. You should have a sharp spirit in your heart that can pierce through the realm of selflessness. I should be able to see an even stronger you in the future!”

Zhang Xuezhou spoke the truth.

Through their regular interactions, he learned that Wei Shao'er was despicable and did not adhere to normal methods of killing.

The fact that the Holy Mother of Wudang nurtured Wei Shao'er ensured his aptitude.

If Wei Shao'er takes a chance, he will have a higher chance of achieving great things in the future, and his relationship with Zhang Xuezhou will become increasingly intertwined.

Compared to a highly respected and powerful figure, a shameless expert like Wei Shao'er poses a greater threat, so it's quite normal for Zhang Xuezhou to choose Wei Shao'er.

Of course, within Zhang Xuezhou's knowledge, he only knew of Wei Shao'er, a patient expert without any affiliated faction, and he had no other choice but to take advantage of the situation.
