Chapter 689 One Cannot Be Kind Forever

Bai Linglong knew that her overall strength was not a problem, but it was also very easy to distinguish her strengths and weaknesses.

She is not lacking in speed and strength. Although this speed and strength cannot allow her to defeat stronger opponents, it is enough for her to deal with the vast majority of enemies and technological weapons without danger.

Her greatest weakness lies in her defense.

Moreover, there are many ways to further enhance one's strength, and skillful application of high-tech weapons can also make up for it, or even make it more efficient.

"If I learn the defensive techniques of the Foresight Master, could I forcibly withstand some powerful attacks?"

So after thinking it over, Bai Linglong looked at Lady Lacey and asked her.

"Of course, the Foresight's defensive form is a specially designed physical enhancement technique to prevent attacks that cannot be dodged."

When Lacey saw Bai Linglong ask this question, she understood her choice and unequivocally affirmed the answer.

In fact, the physical enhancement techniques developed by Renoir, Kyle, and the Precognitive were all quite powerful.

Otherwise, Lacey wouldn't have had the experience of cultivating the physical enhancement technique created by the three of them, and then creating her own illusion form.

For Renoli and Kyle, ultimate strength and ultimate speed were enough to help them achieve everything.

Extreme speed is also a form of defense; it can evade all attacks, making you untouchable by enemies, thus eliminating the fear of injury.

Moreover, Renoli's physical body is not afraid of conventional attacks.

It won't be easy for the enemy to effectively kill him, and that doesn't even take into account Renoli's trump cards.

Needless to say, Kyle's physical strength is already formidable, his defense is exceptionally high, and the trump card he created is a terrifying void magic that surpasses even physical enhancement techniques.

Even with his head severed, he can still deliver a deadly blow to the enemy while headless.

Renoir had learned this the hard way before, breaking Kyle's arm. Logically, Kyle's arm should have been temporarily useless, but he ended up getting punched hard by Kyle's badly injured arm.

That one punch alone would have kept Renault bedridden for at least a month if Kyle hadn't helped with the treatment.

Therefore, as long as Kyle can kill the enemy while remaining alive, he can solve everything.

Moreover, without knowing Kyle's trump card, it's highly unlikely that the enemy can escape that powerful punch.

Lacey had witnessed Renoli's misfortune beforehand, which is why she didn't suffer such a sudden attack when she sparred with Kyle.

The physical enhancement techniques of Renoir and Kyle can only achieve a 1+1=10 effect when applied to them.

However, the Predictor's defensive form is not as flashy.

Because it's designed to withstand unavoidable situations that might occur even with precognitive abilities, the focus is solely on extreme defense.

Of course, it also enhances one's physical body, but not as significantly as it does for Kyle, Renoir, and her.

The question of who is superior in combat ability can only be determined after a true battle has concluded.

But which method can help the weak survive better and deal with powerful enemies? The one that can foresee the future is definitely the best.

"Then I will choose the defensive type of the Foresight Master."

Upon hearing the confirmation, Bai Linglong knew it was time to make a choice.

"A wise choice."

"Generally speaking, when the weak face the strong, they may indeed lack the means to break through the defenses or lack some speed."

"But in reality, what the weak lack most is the ability to survive attacks from the strong."

"Because when the weak encounter certain strong individuals, unless they have nowhere else to retreat and are forced to confront them head-on, their top priority is to escape and save their lives."

"Therefore, the superior defensive capabilities allow you to escape while ensuring your own safety."

"Only by staying alive can one do many things afterward, such as becoming stronger to take revenge, or planning revenge, or finding someone to help with revenge, etc."

Lacey smiled and praised Bai Linglong's choice.

If asked to recommend Bai Linglong, she would recommend that Bai Linglong learn the defensive style of the Predictor.

While teaching others is certainly important, what I hope for even more is that they can pass on the methods I created that I am proud of.

But Lacey doesn't think that way; her priority is teaching others how to ensure their own survival.

When the weak face the strong, only by ensuring their own survival can they have a chance to rise up or plot revenge. If they are killed in one blow, then everything will be in vain.

"Yes, please enlighten me, Lady Lacey."

Bai Linglong also considered that her defense was only decent among those of the same level, but clearly inadequate when facing attacks from stronger opponents, so she chose a defensive build.

"To cultivate the Foresight's defensive enhancement technique to an extremely high level, one must also have a very high level of control over the power of the void."

"However, his skills are not difficult to master."

"Simply put, it means adding dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of layers of protection to your body."

"Reinforce your physical defenses again and again."

"At the same time, the form of the protection can be changed according to the attacks made by the enemy."

"Use the technique of deflecting force to better resist attacks from various forms."

"But those are things you'll learn later."

"I'll first teach you how to use the power of the void to strengthen your body."

As she spoke, Lacey walked to a spot a hundred meters away from Bai Linglong.

As soon as Lacey finished speaking, her body soared into the air, her golden hair fluttering upside down, her body directly covered by the power of the void, and her eyes turning into purple eyes.

With a loud "boom," a visible purple shockwave spread outwards.

Bai Linglong was hit head-on by the impact, and just before her body was about to be thrown out, she quickly regained her balance.

"This is not a training ground, so I will not demonstrate the enhancements to the offensive aspect, but only the enhancements to the defensive aspect."

"Try attacking me."

Lacey looked at Bai Linglong and spoke.

Upon hearing this, Bai Linglong knew there was no need to be polite with Lady Lacey; such a powerful person would likely be difficult to break through even if she stood there and let her hit her.

So without wasting words, she suddenly attacked, her sharp claws reaching out to grab him.

However, when her attack, which could shake even 150 tons of vibrating metal, struck the layer of void power on Lacey's body...

A "ding!" sound rang out, like a needle trying to shake an indestructible mountain, but it couldn't budge it at all.

At the same time, Bai Linglong's invincible claws cracked with a "crack!"

Bai Linglong changed her technique, and the cat tail behind her transformed into a sharp blade, stabbing directly at the target.

With another "ding!" sound, Bai Linglong felt a sharp pain in her cat tail, and at the same time, all the bones in her body were trembling.

It made Bai Linglong's teeth chatter.

"Specialization is the key to becoming a top expert, so don't underestimate any specialization. Ultimate defense can also become your most powerful weapon."

Lacey looked at Bai Linglong and patiently instructed her.

If Bai Linglong did not obtain the power of the void, then these things would obviously not have been taught to her.

But since Bai Linglong obtained it, in order to prevent Bai Linglong from losing the training of the Void God Sect, these basics must be taught to Bai Linglong.

The foundation of the Void God Cult, if placed in other civilized worlds, would likely be an extremely terrifying ability, so once mastered, one would basically have nothing to fear about losing face.

Bai Linglong gritted her teeth and, following the method taught in Sarah's novel, activated the power of the Void Dark Star within her body, causing a purple, glowing full moon to appear on her forehead.

Its body hair also began to change, turning purple and white, giving it a sinister and alluring quality that made it look pure.

A gigantic beast, hundreds of meters tall and entirely purple, shimmering with starlight, appeared in the sky behind Bai Linglong.

"What is this thing?"

Lacey was also somewhat surprised to see this.

As Bai Linglong landed on all fours, she crouched down and crawled on the ground, just like the giant beast behind her.

Then it directly contracted into Bai Linglong's body, making Bai Linglong's aura brutal and dangerous.

It emitted a purple shockwave from its entire body, constantly shaking the surroundings.

Bai Linglong fully manipulated her surging power, and with a single claw strike, a visible purple claw mark flashed across the air.

This time, the sound was different. It was no longer the sound of iron needles shaking a mountain wall, but the sound of a powerful divine weapon clashing with a powerful shield, producing a clear and resonant "clang!"

However, they still couldn't break through Lacey's defenses.

Just as the impact was about to hit the ground, Lacey casually slapped her hand.

A shockwave shot up from the ground, dissipating the aftershocks of Bai Linglong's attack.

Although it was resolved very easily, Lacey looked at Bai Linglong with some surprise in her eyes.

She could tell that this was a physical enhancement technique, because the power of the void was flowing through Bai Linglong's entire body.

She had never seen such a blessing technique before.

Moreover, Bai Linglong used it extremely crudely, wasting a lot of void power, which resulted in her physical body receiving the most perfect amplification. If she had controlled it well, the power should have been much greater than that.

"Who taught you this move?"

Lacey looked at Bai Linglong and asked.

She was certain that this move could not possibly have been created by Bai Linglong herself.

Since Bai Linglong had only obtained the power of the void for a few hours, how could she possibly create void magic? Knowing how to cast it was already quite an achievement.

Seeing that she still couldn't shake the situation, Bai Linglong wanted to continue attacking, but after hearing the question...

"Miss Sarah briefly mentioned a few principles to me..."

Distracted by this, Bai Linglong felt as if she had lost all her strength, and the power of the void around her quickly dissipated. She spoke in a low voice.

"I see, but that's not how you use the physical enhancement technique."

"If you use it like that, unless you have an inexhaustible supply of void power, you simply won't be able to maintain this state for long."

"Whether you are attacking or being attacked, the damage you suffer in defense will only be greater, and the duration of your defense will be shorter."

It's not surprising that Lacey heard Sarah talk about some of the principles.
