From the end of the world

Chapter 618 VS Demon Kirin 3
The speed of the Great Demon Kirin is undoubtedly fast, but whether its consciousness processing speed can keep up with its physical movement speed is hard to say. But at least in my actual experience of fighting, it has mastered its super speed very well. There were several times during the journey when I tried to avoid its attack trajectory by relying on my intuition, but all efforts were in vain. I don't know whether its combat instincts were superior to mine, or it saw through my movements and made temporary arrangements, but I really couldn't avoid its attack.

However, I didn't put all my energy into avoiding attacks. The same goes for defense. I can't say I didn't try hard, I can only say I couldn't exert 120% of my strength on this matter. Because I have a bad habit, when facing the enemy's attack, I always don't consider dodging and defense as necessary options.

As a user of fire abilities, my strength is attacking. As the saying goes, "attack is the best defense," so instead of simply dodging and defending, I should think more about how to counterattack. This is certainly one of the reasons, but it is more likely because since my debut, I have never encountered an attack that could kill me in one blow.

This is actually a rare thing in the eyes of demon hunters. For most demon hunters, even most of the Great Impermanence, attack power is always greater than defense power. Once they hit the enemy first or are hit by the enemy first, even if they are not killed in one shot, the balance of victory and defeat will often tilt greatly, and then they will be defeated like a snowball. "First sight kill" is also a common situation in the weird world. No matter how many times you have won in the past, once you fail once, you will never be able to recover.

Although I can't say that I did it on purpose, my combat always tends to fall into a fixed and clumsy pattern: I take most of the enemy's attacks first, then analyze the enemy's weaknesses and flaws while being repeatedly injured and recovering, and finally hit them with my own destructive fire power to reverse the situation in one fell swoop.

Although this style of play is not considered cheating, it is not in line with my usual style and reveals a sense of insidiousness and cunning. I myself often feel that it is not very decent. But since I really have this advantage, I will not say hypocritical words that I don’t want to use it to the end.

This time, however, my pattern changed even further—it became more sinister than before.

Why did the Great Demon Qilin suddenly get injured and slow down? This is because of a very simple reason, the relativity of motion.

When it collides with me at a speed exceeding one-ninth of the speed of light, it can also be regarded as me hitting it at a speed exceeding one-ninth of the speed of light. In other words, it must also bear the same level of impact as me.

Normally, this impact will not cause much hindrance to it. When a martial artist hits his opponent in the face with his fist, no one would describe it as "the opponent hits his fist with his face". In the common martial arts performance of breaking bricks with a hand knife, as long as the bricks are broken well, the force will not rebound to the hand.

The same principle applies to the current conflict. As long as you use your strongest part to attack the enemy's weakest part, and as long as you can ensure that you can penetrate and explode the enemy every time, the enemy will definitely be the first to collapse.

But I am not the kind of enemy that pays attention to common sense. In the third corona form, my existence itself is an attack, a human-shaped star, and now I will not be easily overwhelmed even if I am hit by the attack towards the true spirit several times or dozens of times. And since my active attack is far from being able to catch the Great Demon Kirin that is about to increase to one-eighth the speed of light, and at the same time, it will actively hit me, then the next thing to do is very simple.

That is to concentrate all your energy on increasing your body density and pour the deadly and poisonous intention into it.

The Great Impermanence Kirin and the old Fist God were both strong men who walked on the path of martial arts. Although I have no understanding of martial arts, I at least understand one thing: martial arts is the killing technique of tempering one's body into a powerful weapon. Even after becoming the Great Impermanence and the Great Demon, this nature does not seem to have changed.

Perhaps Qilin also has some long-range attack techniques, such as killing enemies with fist wind or projecting magic power, etc., but the most powerful thing is still its own well-trained body. In a battle of the same level, there is no reason to win without using the "main weapon", and that approach will also waste its super speed.

Before becoming the Great Impermanence, Qilin might have been able to use weapons such as swords, guns, sticks, etc., but after becoming the Great Impermanence, he basically couldn't find any weapons that matched him. Moreover, he is still a great demon now, so even if he had any weapons that matched him in his lifetime, he can't find any now. For this kind of close combat character, "the enemy that cannot be touched" like me is undoubtedly the worst target.

I don't know if I'm used to its speed, or if its speed has slowed down enough for me to catch it, but I vaguely saw the afterimage of the Great Demon Kirin in motion. The black steel armor-like body had multiple cracks of varying sizes, and there were signs of burning and melting.

Its trajectory as it moved at high speed also changed from invisible to an orange-red light path, winding around me like a ball of thread.

If it still had enough reason left, it would have adopted a different tactic, or simply retreated. Or it could have lengthened the interval between each attack, taking a breath to recover while continuing to attack me. Although this is just my personal speculation, I think all the big demons should have the ability to regenerate at super speed like the big demon Xuanwu. In any case, it is definitely much better than continuing to maintain the original high-frequency attack pace.

It's a pity that the crazy demon doesn't have tactical thinking, otherwise I wouldn't be unable to absorb a little bit of combat wisdom from the demon of disaster. The demon Qilin's grasp of the timing and distance of attack is more like an instinct engraved into the unconscious realm, rather than any real thinking ability. It is either attacking the enemy or on the way to attack the enemy - it has only these two states.

Collision, collision, collision, we collided with each other over and over again. Now, my body's offensive power has risen to a level that is stronger than all my moves. This is natural, because the corona-shaped flames are erupted from the slag weapon that is integrated with my body. Just like the center of a nuclear explosion has the strongest destructive power, my center also has similar properties. In this way, I am somewhat similar to the Great Demon Kirin. Our own bodies are our most powerful means of attack, so in the past I always crashed into the enemy.

Now the competition is no longer about speed and strength, but about endurance. My body is certainly more "fragile" than the Great Demon Kirin, but "resurrection" again and again makes this weakness insignificant. I only need to destroy the Great Demon Kirin's body and soul to win, while the Great Demon Kirin needs to build on this and use its power to destroy my true spirit after penetrating my soul. This is not a competition of the same level at all, and there is no fairness.

Not long after, its body seemed to finally be unable to bear the accumulated damage, and the part from the left shoulder to the chest exploded and shattered. Its speed also became unsustainable, and quickly decreased to a level that I could capture with my perception.

"--it's over."

This time, it was my turn to take the initiative and rush towards it.

The Great Demon Kirin did not make any sound, but I seemed to vaguely hear it roaring in anger. It increased its speed again and entered a realm that I could not sense. But even without special perception, I could tell its trajectory at this moment - it must be a straight line.

It still seemed to have no idea what retreat was, and it rushed towards me with its knee.

After the collision, I was pierced again, and its right leg exploded and shattered on the spot. While I recovered, I turned around and attacked it, and it attacked again without flinching. After two more collisions, its left leg exploded, and the right half of its body was also shattered, and its speed was reduced to roughly the same level as mine.

In the last round, I clenched my right fist tightly. The power of the divine seal fragment - the power of the true spirit flowed out from my consciousness and poured into my fist. I rushed forward and delivered the final blow to its head.

Even though it was irrational, its predecessor was also a person who was proficient in martial arts. Theoretically, it was impossible for me to hit it with my mediocre attack. But it had lost its limbs, so if it wanted to continue attacking, its only weapon was a headbutt.

Its headbutt collided with my fist.

The next moment, my fist couldn't withstand the impact and shattered on the spot, and its head exploded at the same time.

The great evil Qilin, destroyed.

I let out a breath. However, the battle was not over yet, and it was not time to rest assured. I recovered my soul, turned around, and moved non-stop in the direction where Fa Zheng was fighting the other two demons.

At the same time, I briefly checked my current condition. After taking so many attacks head-on, although my soul could still recover to a complete state and would not affect the output efficiency of mana, my true spirit was already close to being seriously injured.

If the enemy was not the inflexible Great Demon Kirin, but the Great Unpredictable Kirin with complete rationality and combat wisdom, I really don’t know what the ending would be.

When I approached Fa Zheng, the battle between Fa Zheng and the other two big demons was coming to an end.
