Infinite Terror: This Middle Continent is Rebellious

Chapter 286 Self-Created Energy Cycle
"Although blood vessels are contained within the meridians, meridians are not blood vessels. There is no martial art in the world that operates through blood vessels. If it is not for the purpose of healing internal injuries caused by blood vessel damage and blockage, one must always prevent internal energy from deviating from the meridians and entering the blood vessels, so as to avoid going astray."

Ouyang Feng didn't know Wen Lie's condition. He continued to talk about his thoughts while raising his hand.

The five fingers were spread apart, the joints were bent, and the hot force was emitted from the fingertips. With a wave of the hand, the fingertips swept past, and the air began to distort.

"In this world, there is no one else who can do this except me."

He practiced the Nine Yin Scriptures in reverse, and all his meridians were reversed and dislocated, and going astray was commonplace.

In three days, he changed the method of using the Nine Yin Divine Claw from meridians to blood vessels.

Although it is a minimalist version and cannot be used in actual combat, it is a good start.

Ouyang Feng said regretfully, "However, Ripple Qigong is not internal energy after all. It doesn't have the mysteries of internal energy. It can only be used to stimulate fist and kick techniques that injure people. Internal energy like the Yijinjianguzhang, secret techniques like the Soul-Snatching Technique, light skills like the Spiral Nine Shadows, sound skills like the Ghost Prison's Yinfenghou, and even the Demon-Subduing Handprint that transforms internal energy into soul-destroying palm power cannot be transformed into Ripple Qigong."

The power of ripple qigong is too pure and too simple, and blood vessels are not like meridians, where internal force can produce various wonderful effects.

The only martial arts that can be activated by ripples are those that do not involve changes in the nature of internal force, but only involve technical techniques that involve changes in the strength, lightness, slowness, and speed of the force.

Wen Lie said calmly, "That's enough. It doesn't matter whether those fancy things can be used or not."

What he wants to make up for through martial arts is his weakness in skills. As for the rest, it would be great if he can adapt it into ripple martial arts, but he will not regret it if he cannot.

"This is the introductory Nine Yin Divine Claws technique that I adapted. You can give it a try."

Ouyang Feng uploaded the set of exercises he had developed into his computer through brain wave transmission technology.

The projector displayed a 3D diagram of the human body in front of Wen Lie. The projected human body made simple and clear movements. A red line flowed along the blood vessels, passed through the acupuncture points, expanded at the acupuncture points on the fingers, and then released a 3 mm diameter Qi.

Wen Lie opened the fourth-level gene lock and used subtle techniques to compress and condense the ripple energy, allowing it to flow through his blood.

With strength flowing through his five fingers, Wen Lie waved his palm, and the ripples turned into blade-like force, spewing out from his fingertips.

The 3mm thin fire force was like a Gauss bullet, penetrating the alloy target dozens of meters away.

"Yes, that's it."

In an instant, an idea flashed through Wen Lie's mind, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

After releasing the compressed ripples and opening the fourth-level gene lock, this technique was not difficult for Wen Lie. He had used it several times, but it was only used to bully weaklings. Fighting against strong opponents, this technique was meaningless.

Ripples are not internal force and can only run in the meridians. They exist in all blood vessels, spleen, liver, and skin. The output end is the surface of the limbs where blood exists. The smaller the output end, the greater the output intensity.

The fingertips are the smallest output end, but they are not suitable for combat. Wen Lie usually uses ripples to strengthen his body, and then outputs ripples through the bulges of the finger joints after clenching his fist to attack the enemy.

For example, the attack just now, when used previously, was released from the fingertips while compressing it, condensing the ripple energy, which originally couldn't be released directly into the air and had to be conducted through a medium, into a more solid state with greater mass. This added an extra step to the battle, slowing the attack down, and every step slower meant every step was slower. High-intensity combat couldn't tolerate such a slow approach that didn't improve combat effectiveness.

Now, through the Nine Yin Divine Claw's power-generating technique, Wen Lie uses blood vessels as the route for the flow of ripple energy, eliminating the step of compression and shaping after release, and the efficiency alone has increased tenfold.

Wen Lie muttered to himself, "I've been too careless. No, I've grown stronger too quickly. I simply can't take care of these things."

Generally speaking, except for combat geniuses like Richard, once the third-level gene lock is unlocked, one must start to create his own skills. Self-created skills will not be taken away by the Lord God, nor will they be counted in the Lord God's evaluation, and they are completely suitable for one's own strength.

However, Wen Lie became stronger too quickly, and it took a lot of energy just to adapt to his own enhancement, leaving him no time to create his own skills.

Wen Lie's current strength is that of a person who can defeat ten with force, but he still has some deficiencies in terms of skills and power. Jacob's hands and feet are body training and magic effects, which focus on how to exert the power of the body and how to make the fists heavier and faster, which also falls into the category of a person who can defeat ten with force.

It was precisely because of this that he was unable to break through to the intermediate fourth level even though he had already seen through his inner demons.

"It's time for me to create my own power."

Wen Lie has already seen his future path and he understands how he should go about it.

The standard for the early stage of the fourth stage is the subtle mastery of energy control and the subtle mastery of genetic adjustment. Based on the two, the application of simulated energy circulation and the discarding of useless genes can achieve the effect of shaping a perfect body.

What Wen Lie needs to do now is to use the power of the fourth-level gene lock to simulate the meridians of internal energy and transform the blood vessels in the body into ripple energy circuits. Through the brain development of the third-level gene lock and the assistance of Ouyang Feng, he can adapt the suitable martial arts into ripple martial arts.

It took Wen Lie 10 days to transform every blood vessel into an energy circuit that could restrain the movement of ripples.

The intricate blood vessels are connected to each other, yet separated from each other in an orderly manner, which greatly improves the efficiency of energy circulation.

As long as the mind is focused, the ripple energy will follow the corresponding blood vessels to the location Wen Lie wants, and produce a more refined and concentrated force, instead of the simple and crude one as usual.

Ouyang Feng also changed the method of using the Nine Yin Divine Claw from meridians to blood vessels, which took a lot of effort.

"Thank you."

Seeing Ouyang Feng's haggard appearance, Wen Lie expressed his gratitude sincerely.

He had never expected that Ouyang Feng would be so dedicated to his affairs.

"Why bother thanking me? Being able to open up a new world outside of the current martial arts will also be of great benefit to my martial arts cultivation."

Ouyang Feng smiled slightly, raised his right hand, and politely declined Wen Lie's thanks.

More importantly, in order to decide who is the best in the world, we two must fight in the future. All of your martial arts have been trained by me, and the secret of every move and every style is within my grasp. I know exactly where the flaws are and where to start. In the future, how can you defeat me?
Thinking of this, Ouyang Feng's smile became even wider.
