I Can Replicate Martial Arts

Meanwhile, Wupeng Great Witch Venerable also charged over with his soldiers. Their Flying Beasts were a unique species exclusive to the Great Shang’s Flying Legion.

King Chonghou’s side had none of them.

Although these Exotic Beasts were not as formidable as the Nine-Orifice Soul-Devouring Worms, they were not to be underestimated. Paired with High-tier Warriors, they were just as invincible as the heavy cavalry of ancient times, sweeping away all before them.

On King Chonghou’s side, Mo Longteng wasn’t idle either, leading a group of warriors to meet the charge.

The ferocity of the battle between the two sides was terrifying to behold.

Countless bodies rained down from the sky, dyeing the mountains, rocks, and fields below blood-red.

"Kill!"

Seeing her father and brother locked in fierce combat, Mo Ling’Er’s eyes filled with fighting spirit. She grabbed a long saber and charged forward.

Although she was only at the High Tier of Dharma Aspect, her strength was already close to the Domain Realm. Her great saber expanded to over ten meters long, and with every swing, Sword Qi crisscrossed the air.

Whether it was the enemy’s Exotic Beasts or their soldiers, a mere touch would injure, and a direct hit meant death. She was cutting a bloody swath through them all.

Everyone had charged out, leaving only Zhao Rui standing in place with an awkward expression.

’What a mess!’

Just as Zhao Rui didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, the hairs on his body suddenly stood on end as a sense of inexplicable danger washed over him.

Without a second thought, Zhao Rui used Dipper Step to dodge at top speed. The moment his figure moved, a crack suddenly appeared in the empty space behind him, right where he had just been standing.

"Fuck!"

Zhao Rui cursed under his breath. Even at his current level, he wouldn’t dare take a direct hit from a spatial rift without any defense.

That thing tore through space itself. If it could rip space apart, what chance did a human body have? Forget a human body; even the hardest objects exist within the confines of space.

Zhao Rui focused his gaze and looked back. Where the rift had just appeared, a man identical to the Armor Warriors who had been standing on the heads of the Nine-Orifice Soul-Devouring Worms slowly emerged from the void.

"So you’re the secret weapon they left behind?"

The man’s lips curled into a playful smile as he looked at Zhao Rui.

’Secret weapon, my ass!’

Zhao Rui was speechless.

He had just fallen behind and hadn’t decided whether to join the fight yet.

"And who are you? I don’t think Great Shang has people like you."

Seeing that the other party was in no hurry, Zhao Rui asked in a similarly unhurried manner.

"Us?"

The man smiled and said slowly, "To you, we are visitors from beyond the heavens."

"Visitors from beyond the heavens?"

Zhao Rui was startled. Before he could ask more, the man rubbed his fingers together, and a flash of light appeared between them.

Then, the man pointed at Zhao Rui, and the beam of light shot out, flying toward him.

The blazing light illuminated the night sky.

Zhao Rui swung his sword through the air. The blade emitted a brilliant radiance as it diagonally struck the beam of light.

A massive force instantly erupted from the beam, making the web of Zhao Rui’s thumb ache.

"Replicable Martial Arts detected: Blazing Flame Finger. Replicate?"

’Replicate!’

Zhao Rui’s eyes narrowed. His sword’s light flared, and a fire dragon soared into the air, striking toward the man.

"A little interesting."

The man raised his right hand, tapped his forehead, and the armor covering his body flashed with light.

His armor had now achieved full coverage, encasing his entire body seamlessly.

Zhao Rui’s Tribulation-Breaking Sword struck it directly. A flash of light passed over the armor, and something like a thin membrane of air blocked the sharp edge of the Tribulation-Breaking Sword.

’The Tribulation-Breaking Sword can’t break through its defense?’

Zhao Rui’s expression darkened slightly.

"A fine sword!"

The man’s body trembled slightly. His left hand formed a claw and grabbed for Zhao Rui’s right wrist.

Zhao Rui twisted his wrist to dodge, then flicked his sword upward in a flowery motion. Both were using close-quarters techniques, giving off a sense of simplifying the complex and Returning to the True.

Although it looked like ordinary Martial Arts, seemingly without any power, both of them knew the extreme danger involved.

This was especially true for Zhao Rui; his opponent’s armor had incredibly high defense, while his own body had no such protection.

Zhao Rui hadn’t expected to encounter such a strong opponent. His competitive spirit was stirred, and he unleashed the full extent of his learned skills.

The wide, sweeping Shaolin Fist; the nimble, evasive Emei Skill; Qing City’s Thunderbolt Sword Technique; Huashan’s Anti-Two Forms Sword Skill...

His repertoire of skills was incredibly diverse. In terms of the ingenuity of his techniques alone, he had few rivals in the world.

For his opponent to abandon the long-range Red Flame Finger and try to compete with him in pure technique was like a novice showing off before a master.

"You..."

The man grew more and more alarmed as they fought. He never expected Zhao Rui’s Martial Arts to be so formidable. In terms of pure technique, there was no way he could overpower Zhao Rui.

After a short while, his armor had been struck dozens of times, while he hadn’t landed a single blow. He instantly gave up the idea of fighting Zhao Rui in close combat. The armor flashed with light again, directly blasting Zhao Rui away.

Zhao Rui’s eyes narrowed. ’This armor is really something else.’

’High defense, offensive capabilities, and even an area-of-effect attack property.’

"You’ve surprised me!"

As the man spoke, he once again rubbed his fingers to create a beam of light, which shot toward Zhao Rui like a meteor.

"Too simplistic!"

Zhao Rui’s figure flickered as he weaved and dodged, evading the attack.

This Finger Technique was straightforward and direct. Besides its great power, it had no other redeeming qualities.

However, when paired with that suit of armor, its combination of offense and defense made him like a mobile fortress.

In that sense, it was quite remarkable.

"Damn you! How dare you look down on me!"

The man was enraged. The light on his armor flashed again, his speed suddenly exploded, and he left behind an afterimage as he charged swiftly toward Zhao Rui.

Seeing this, Zhao Rui’s figure also flickered. He used the Charming Maiden Formless Celestial Demon Great Method, and six figures split off, surrounding the man from six directions—above, below, left, right, front, and back—completely boxing him in.

No matter how fast the man was, he couldn’t escape the Telepathy of the Formless Celestial Demon. He was soon forced into a smaller and smaller area of movement.

He could only continuously use Blazing Flame Finger to keep Zhao Rui from getting close.

"Blazing Flame Finger replicated successfully. Reward: one Advancement Point!"

Hearing the system prompt, Zhao Rui smiled faintly. He rubbed his fingers together, and a blazing beam of light shot out, striking the man’s armor directly.

The tremendous impact and destructive force sent the man flying back nearly a hundred meters.

"How do you know the Blazing Flame Finger?"

The man was utterly horrified, his face a mask of disbelief.

"A Martial Arts technique this simple? You learn it just by seeing it once!"

Zhao Rui said with a faint smile.

"How is that possible?"

The man’s eyes were wide open. Just as he was about to ask more, he saw Zhao Rui rubbing his fingers together repeatedly, sending out streams of Finger Force that pierced through space toward him.

The man hurriedly slapped a mechanism somewhere on his armor. The entire suit began to glow with a brilliant, dazzling blue light.

"This ends now!" the man roared. His figure flashed as he charged Zhao Rui.

"You’re right about that."

Zhao Rui sneered. He combined the Heavenly Demon Illusionary Sound Technique with the Charming Maiden Formless Celestial Demon Great Method, instantly creating six figures, each one unleashing the Sound Wave Divine Skill.

A huge vacuum of air rushed toward the man from all directions.

These Sound Waves had long since surpassed ordinary air vibrations, instead feeling like spatial vibrations.

This True Qi vibration directly bound the man’s body in place with a bizarre frequency.

The armor on his body continuously emitted a dazzling blue light.

"Break!"

Zhao Rui’s voice boomed like thunder. The armor on the man’s body abruptly disassembled, breaking down into individual components that floated in the air.

The man was terrified, his tone of voice completely changed. "How did you do that?"

"There’s no need to explain that."

Zhao Rui walked over and reached out, using a telekinetic ability to pull the armor components into his hand and lift them up.

’It’s as light as a feather. Truly extraordinary.’

"Let me go! I promise I’ll have my people help you! I can recall them first."

"Oh? First, tell me where you come from!"

"Aren’t you worried about your people? They’re still fighting to the death."

The man looked at Zhao Rui in surprise. In the distance, the two opposing Great Shang armies were still fighting.

Yet Zhao Rui didn’t seem anxious at all.

"It’s not that I’m not in a hurry."

Zhao Rui’s figure suddenly flashed, appearing behind the man. He reached out his right hand and placed it directly on top of his head.

The Heavenly Demon Illusionary Sound Technique activated instantly!

"Aargh!"

The man struggled a few times with a pained expression, then his head suddenly drooped. A moment later, he looked up.

"Master!"

"Have them stand down!"

"Yes!"

Upon hearing the command, the man nodded. He rubbed his fingers together, and a beam of light shot straight toward the leading Armor Warrior in the distance.

The Armor Warrior showed a look of surprise, but he immediately halted his actions and brought the Nine-Orifice Soul-Devouring Worm beneath him under control.

At the same time, the other Nine-Orifice Soul-Devouring Worms also ceased their attacks and flew high into the sky.
