chapter 4197 the dragon expert’s instructions
long chen persistently battled against the dragon claw, resulting in him being draped in painful, bloody wounds. his determination drove him to relentlessly press on in the fight.
he had gone from barely enduring a few blows to now lasting dozens of exchanges. it could be said that he had brushed against death countless times. throughout this ordeal, he was dancing on the blade of the death god.
“idiot, what are you doing?! one slip and you’ll die! why don’t you understand it yet?!” finally, the dragon expert couldn’t endure it anymore and cursed at long chen.
long chen had just gone through an intense fight and was in the midst of healing. originally, he had been quite pleased with himself, thinking that he had made great improvements by being able to last this long.
"did you fail to notice that its attack consisted solely of the dragon claw, not the entire dragon body?" the dragon expert demanded.
“yes?” long chen could only thicken his face.
“and why is that?” asked the dragon expert.
long chen was dumbfounded. how was he supposed to know? all he knew was that when he entered this space, that dragon claw would randomly attack him. he could only face it passively.
long chen blindly guessed, “because it hid its body?”
“idiot!” the dragon expert was speechless. “you really are a fool! its body isn’t there as a hint! all of its power is concentrated in the dragon claw, so this claw is unstoppable, tearing through heaven and earth, leaving no openings. if you want to attack its body, you must first defeat this claw. your human race often says that you must be skilled in both offense and defense. but to our dragon race, that’s dogshit logic. if you are strong enough, your opponent can only defend. how would they have a chance to attack you? if you split your power, you end up with a weak offense and amateur defense. how could anyone accomplish anything big with such a power distribution?”
hearing the dragon expert’s words, long chen was instantly enlightened. this principle was similar to that of sword cultivators. one stroke of their sword contained their full heart and spirit, as they focused entirely on offense.
if their opponent could block their killing blow, then it proved that their opponent was simply stronger, and you had lost. even if you launched a second blow, it would change nothing.
if you were stronger than your opponent, then one stroke of your sword would decide life and death. why bother with defense then?
however, these words also gave him a sense of alarm. without realizing it, his perception had actually fallen. he had to be vigilant and focus more on cultivation.
long chen then extended a claw. however, he was still used to pouring his energy into his arm. in other words, he was still mobilizing his power before unleashing the claw.
according to the dragon expert, that was a mistake. he should instead directly unleash the claw, and his power would naturally follow.
however, this was contrary to long chen’s habit when fighting, so he would need to break his habit first.
even so, once a habit was formed, it was difficult to break. thus, long chen was constantly unleashing his claws to find that feeling.
the dragon expert didn’t say any more thing and allowed long chen to keep practicing. fortunately, while this habit was deeply ingrained in him, he hadn’t been training in the cloud dragon immolation claw for long, so he could still break this habit for this technique.
changing it was still difficult though, but after a few thousand attempts, long chen gradually began to grasp this feeling.
as soon as long chen grasped it, he felt much more confident. with each subsequent practice, his claw strikes began to release piercing whistling gusts, gradually transforming into ear-splitting sound explosions.
the sound explosions intensified to the point where they rattled his ears, but their rumbling eventually subsided. the ear-piercing explosive sounds and the whistling winds gradually dissipated as well.
however, at that point, long chen’s claws were already leaving tears in the void, looking as if they would claw the void apart.
his dragon scales then began to turn dim, all of their power naturally flowing into his claw.
long chen was lost in this state. it felt like this claw encapsulated all the essence of the paragon techniques of the world. it was as if learning this one move was equal to controlling the entire world.
what long chen didn’t know was that as he repeatedly practiced this technique, the dragon expert who had been cursing angrily was murmuring to itself.
“this little fellow’s comprehension is really terrifying. one pointer was all he needed. there’s no need for me to even teach him the second realm of the dragon soul body forging art. hehe, this sage king convention will be interesting. the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. all lifeforms are game pieces, but these game pieces might not be so easy to control!”
