Chapter 223 The Real Shisan Type

"Bang!"

In the blazing red lotus fire, the two figures who were constantly fighting finally bounced away from each other, as if they were blown away, and they distanced themselves.

Ji Guoyuan finally landed on the ground. After landing on the ground, he took two or three steps back before regaining his balance.

Li Ge still plowed the ground with the soles of his feet. He only stopped after plowing a few meters.

A fierce attack and defense, until this moment, there was some breathing time.

"You are worthy of being the one who defeated Oniitsuji Mukai." Enichi Jiguo looked at Lige across from him, raised his sword, praised him, and said, "You are much stronger than I was before I was alive."

"...No." Li Ge was silent for a while, then sighed and said: "In some aspects, I am far inferior to you."

This is what Li Ge said from the bottom of his heart.

In the attack and defense just now, there was no doubt that Li Ge was at a disadvantage almost the entire time.

Why?

Because Ji Guoyuan is now stronger than him?

no.

If we only talk about overall ability, Li Ge and Ji Guoyuan are almost in the same league.

Regardless of strength or speed, there is not much difference between the two, and it is impossible to tell who is better and who is worse.

But in areas other than ability value, Ji Guoyuanyi can be said to have completely defeated Li Ge.

For example, in terms of sword skills, Ji Guoyuanyi is better than Li Ge.

When it comes to any type of Breath of the Sun, the effect produced by the two of them is almost the same. However, the connection between the types of sword skills used by Jiguo Yuanyi is smoother and faster than that of Lige, which leads to his His overall fighting skills and fighting rhythm are better than Li Ge's, and he is stronger than Li Ge.

There is also the Transparent World. Ji Guoyuanyi has been adapted to this field for many years. Therefore, he can see more carefully and more clearly than Li Ge. He can even take action when detecting the enemy's movements and react better than Li Ge. Li Ge is fast, and his control of some details is better than Li Ge. The result is that Li Ge sometimes cannot keep up with his movements and reactions.

In addition, Ji Guoyuanyi also has subtleties in the use of the Breath of the Sun that are difficult to match.

You must know that Lige's Hermit is not an ordinary sun-shaped sword, but a first-level special weapon that emits high temperature all the time and can easily fuse steel.

The Nichirin Sword in Jiguoyuan's hand was just an ordinary sword and did not reach the level of special weapons at all.

Logically speaking, when such a knife collides with Li Ge's hermit, there should be only one end.

That is to be cut off by the hermit.

However, Jiguo Yuanyi's sword was not only not cut off, but also collided with the hermit many times, and the result was not damaged at all.

Because Ji Guoyuan had wrapped the flames of the breath of the sun on the blade, and when it collided with Lige's hermit, he immediately detonated the flames on the blade, causing another high temperature to turn into hot wind, which offset the hermit's emission. The high temperature came out and eased Li Ge's cutting speed and power.

Therefore, the hermit could not cut off Jiguoyuanyi's sword.

This miraculous operation and the superposition of various factors allowed Ji Guoyuan to suppress Li Ge.

Whether it is sword skills or understanding the world, these are obviously qualities that Ji Guoyuan had before evolving the Breath of the Sun.

This shows what?

This shows that before evolving into the Breath of the Sun and entering the Level 7 level, Ji Guoyuanyi was already stronger than Li Ge in terms of sword skills and ability to penetrate the world.

Even though Li Ge has a strength comparable to Level 7 after evolving the Breath of the Sun, his sword skills and world penetration are still not as good as those of Jiguo Enyi who did not evolve the Breath of the Sun before.

That's why Lige made such a statement.

This also gave Li Ge a wake-up call.

"The improvement of strength does not only look at ability values, but also at hard power. It also depends on combat experience, skills, and the countermeasures and tactics adopted in combat."

In order to pursue strength, Li Ge has been developing in terms of ability values ​​recently. Although it cannot be said that he has completely ignored the accumulation of combat skills, there has been a shift in focus to some extent.

Fortunately, it is not that he has not mastered the combat skills at all, otherwise he would not have mastered all the sword types of Breath of the Sun, and he would not have been able to persist under Jiguoyuanyi's offensive until now.

Moreover, Ji Guoyuan is not the only one who can steal lessons.

Li Ge remembered the rhythm, angle and timing of every sword swing by Ji Guoyuan in the attack and defense just now, and also remembered the movements of Ji Guoyuan when he used the sword shape of Breath of the Sun.

Recalling the smooth slashes and the natural and swift sword skills connection, Li Ge closed his eyes.

When he opened it again, Li Ge's eyes turned out to be somewhat transparent like Jiguoyuan's.

"Um?"

Ji Guoyuan was startled at first, but then he understood.

"Did you absorb the experience of the previous battle and let yourself grow?"

Ji Guoyuan felt enlightened and amazed at the same time.

This descendant from a distant era who was accidentally discovered and chosen by him was indeed a person who was favored by the gods and had extraordinary talents.

Thus……

"I have to keep my spirits up."

Jiguo Yuanyi, who was murmuring like this, didn't realize that the corners of his mouth were slightly raised unconsciously.

He didn't know that at this time, he had already begun to enjoy this battle.

During his lifetime, no one in the human race could be a match for Enichi Tsukuni. All evil spirits must be killed. Even Mukai Onimushuji, Enichi Enichi just regarded him as a monster different from humans. To kill, not as an opponent that you can enjoy fighting against.

Therefore, Ji Guoyuan has never encountered a person who is evenly matched, and he has never experienced the feeling of going all out, fighting with others, confirming each other's strength, and making progress together.

It wasn't until this moment, when he met Li Ge, that Ji Guoyuan finally had this experience.

This is the last battle before he completely passes away from this world, and it may also be the most satisfying battle for him so far.

Realizing this, Ji Guoyuan tightened his grip on the knife.

"bring it on."

A voice full of fighting spirit that had never been heard before came from Ji Guoyuanyi's mouth.

Li Ge did not respond, but raised his knife, stepped on the ground, and rushed towards Jiguo Yuanyi in the flames.

The two knives wrapped in flames intersected again, causing the red lotus fire to continue to bloom on the top of the mountain closest to the sun.

…………

"clang!"

The sound of gold and iron clashing countless times echoed in the air.

The red lotus fire has burned all over the top of the mountain, making the place scorching hot and black.

Li Ge and Jiguo Yuanyi were still fighting in the flames, wielding flaming slashes one after another, and scattering bursts of dazzling fire. They continued to attack and defend as if they couldn't feel any fatigue.

The sword shape of Breath of the Sun has been released countless times in the hands of these two people. The fire of the sun still collides violently from time to time, destroying the terrain here and gradually turning it into a sea of ​​fire. .

At this time, more than ten hours had passed since the two officially fought.

If this were the real world, it would have been dark by now, and the sun hanging high in the sky would no longer be in that position and would have already set.

Unfortunately, this is a dream, not the real world, so even after more than ten hours have passed, the sun is still high in the sky, shining brightly at the position closest to the top of the mountain, without moving even an inch.

"boom!"

The roar sounded, and the explosion of flames separated the two people in the fierce battle again, causing them to distance themselves.

"breathe--"

Li Ge and Ji Guoyuan stood opposite each other, raising their swords towards each other, and they actually didn't look tired at all.

Needless to say, Li Ge has the highest level of "healing power" ability. His physical strength is almost infinite and he hardly feels tired.

Although Ji Guoyuanyi does not have the development ability assistance like Li Ge, the magic of breathing method makes it difficult for him to feel tired as long as his breathing is not disordered.

In the original work, Tanjiro's father once said such a sentence.

“If you breathe correctly, you can keep dancing.”

Adhering to this concept, Tanjiro's father, no matter how weak he was, could dance Kagura dance in the snow all day and night without feeling tired.

There is no doubt that Jiguo Enichi is also such a person. His control of breathing methods has reached an astonishing level. No matter how fierce or long the battle is, he will hardly feel tired.

Of course, it's not tiring, but after more than ten hours of fierce fighting, the image of both Li Ge and Ji Guoyuan has been greatly reduced.

Their bodies were all covered in colors, and their clothes were either cut open by sharp tools and turned into tatters, or were affected by flames and turned extremely black. Their messy appearance would definitely shock anyone who knew them.

However, even though they were so embarrassed and scarred, their eyes were extremely bright and full of brilliance.

Inside, the fighting spirit and fighting spirit have never disappeared from the beginning to the end.

"You've caught up with me."

Ji Guoyuanyi said this with a smile to Li Ge.

"Finally."

Li Ge also responded with a smile.

After more than ten hours of fierce fighting, Li Ge had completely caught up with Ji Guoyuanyi's sword, and his sword skills were indistinguishable from him.

Even through the world of transparency, Li Ge gradually became better at using it by observing Jiguoyuanyi.

Now, he would no longer be at a disadvantage against Jiguo Yuanyi.

only……

"At best it's just becoming evenly matched."

Ji Guoyuanyi said so.

"In this case, you can't defeat me."

Indeed, this is the most that Lige can do.

The two have become completely evenly matched, and neither of them will get tired. If they continue to fight, they will end up being evenly matched, and it is impossible to determine the winner.

Even if it lasts for another three days and three nights, ten days and ten nights, it will still be the same.

At least Ji Guoyuan didn't think he would lose.

However, Li Ge shook his head.

"The winner will be determined."

He spoke like this.

"Because, I still have one last blow to make."

Hearing this, Ji Guoyuan was slightly startled.

"The last stab?"

He didn't understand.

In response, Li Ge smiled lightly.

"Actually, I have always felt that the Shisan type you created cannot be regarded as a new sword type."

"So, I created my own style."

"A true Shisan type."
