Chapter 106: Sparring with Father (First Update)
The atmosphere in the room became tense, Yi Chi insisted on going, after all, he had to go. Firstly, it was for the energy point, and secondly, it was also to see the outside world. To be honest, he had been bored with this Floating Feather City for a long time.
Yi Yun was actually worried that his son would get into trouble and didn't think it was necessary to go. If he wanted to gain experience, he could take him there when he had time.
The two had vastly different ideas, and Yi Chi would not agree to let his father follow him. After all, some things were hard to explain, and he also wanted to be more independent. Besides, he wasn't really a 15-year-old kid.
After some thought, Yi Chi finally said: "Father, how about this? If I can withstand a hundred moves under your hands without being defeated, then you'll let me go, okay?"
Yi Yun now truly thought that his little son had gone mad, actually thinking of supporting a hundred moves without defeat under his own hands. To know that even if it was a same-level Dou Wang, Yi Yun would have the confidence to take down the opponent within a hundred moves, let alone his own three-star Dou Shi strength son, wasn't this just madness?
However, since he brought it up and it was beneficial to himself, Yi Yun had no reason not to agree. So, Yi Yun readily agreed, and this time, he was destined to make a mistake.
Yi Chi's heart was filled with joy after seeing his father agree, but he knew that if he wanted to defeat his father, it would be impossible. However, not losing wouldn't be difficult either.
At Yi Chi's current speed, it can't be said that he is much faster than his father, but he is still a bit faster. Wanting to dodge is not very easy, but it's also not difficult. Moreover, doesn't he still have those eyes? Plus his sword skills and minor magic, as the saying goes, "having many trump cards makes things easier". This is precisely Yi Chi.
He smiled and said, "Well, Father, let's go. We can't fight at home, can we?"
Yi Yun rolled his eyes, the power of Yi's move was such that if they were to fight at home, it would have resulted in unnecessary expenses again. Moreover, he couldn't let loose here and didn't dare use powerful moves, which would be disadvantageous to himself!
Yi Yun nodded and stood up, saying: "Alright, follow me."
After finishing speaking, he lifted his foot and walked towards the door.
Yi Chi smiled and followed behind him.
......
Lingying Valley, a mountain valley about 100 miles away from Feiyu City. The valley is not large, only about 300 meters wide, and it's not deep, with a depth of about one mile. The entire valley is U-shaped and embedded in the ground. There is a tree in the valley called Lingying Tree, which blooms a flower called Lingying Flower. This flower blooms in spring and falls in winter. In winter, there are often tourists visiting this place to admire the flowers, hence the name: Lingying Valley.
At this moment, Yi Chi and his son were standing at the entrance of the valley, facing each other, both staring at each other without saying a word. Just like in movies and TV shows, when a petal fell between them, they both moved instantly.
But then he saw Yi Yun holding a huge red knife. The knife was five feet long and one foot wide, truly a giant of a knife.
The person opposite him was Yi Chi, who held a long sword with a cyan blade. The sword body was straight and silver-white all over, and under the sunlight, it reflected dazzling rays of light.
Two figures moved, both wielding their weapons in hand and thrusting them towards the sky. The difference was that one emitted a fiery red glow, while the other emitted a cyan green glow. The two glows clashed in mid-air, with the fiery red glow directly shattering the cyan green glow and pressing down on Yi Chi.
At this time, Yi Chi was not flustered in the face of danger, but instead smiled slightly and turned his sword with ease. Suddenly, the sword split into thousands of rays of light that shot towards the sky.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion, the huge crimson light that shot straight down from the sky was decomposed into countless sparks under the tens of thousands of sword lights shot out by Yi Chi. Those sparks fell to the ground one after another, leaving countless scorch marks on the ground. For a moment, both of them stood still, neither making another move.
Then, Yi Chi lightly laughed and said: "Father, it's just one move!"
The person opposite him burst out laughing loudly: "Haha, good, you're indeed my son, quite capable. Now watch this move."
This man is Yi Chi's father, Yi Yun.
But then, Yi Yun swung his large knife again, and a wave of overwhelming momentum shot straight at Yi Chi. As the momentum approached, a green light flashed on Yi Chi's body, and beneath that green light, a black glow was hidden, which was the ability of the Devil Fruit, helping him absorb some of the momentum, thereby reducing the pressure on him.
Yi Yun saw that his aura was useless against Yi Chi, and suddenly felt a wave of surprise, his expression no longer as relaxed as before.
But he saw him glare at Yi Chi, a large knife in his hand made a turn, the blade swept forward horizontally.
A huge wave of heat rushed towards the pool, and behind that heat wave was a giant blade of flames, tens of meters long. Wherever it passed, the ground was scorched and charred, a vast expanse of blackness.
"Good job." Yi Chi let out a loud whoop, and without grasping the sword in that hand, a golden light flashed, but it was actually giving himself a boost of courage skill.
Then he changed from one hand to two hands, with both hands grasping the sword in his hand.
Take a big gulp.
"Heavenly Sword Slash!"
In fact, he also used the heavy strike spell in this move.
But seeing him raise his long sword, with one slash down, he has the momentum of splitting Mount Hua.
This sword can be said to be the pinnacle of Yi Chi's current abilities. With one slash, the sword body flashed with white light, and the heavy impact magic took effect. Then, a sharp sword energy shot out from the sword, which was only a single sword tip. The upper layer of the sword energy was surrounded by a layer of black flames, the middle layer was red flames, and the lower layer was a series of rapidly rotating wind blades.
In a fraction of a second, the sword energy shot out by Yi Chi collided with the knife edge swung out by Yi Yun.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Two attacks collided halfway, the shockwave formed by the huge explosive force rushed out more than ten miles away, and the surrounding trees were all overthrown, chaotic and disheveled.
In the sky, countless petals are dancing, under the coercion of air waves, they rush straight to the distance, within ten miles where Yi Chi and Yi Yun stand, not a single petal falls.
Between them, a hundred-meter-deep giant pit appeared. The bottom of the pit was pitch black, with thick smoke billowing out.
Yi Yun furrowed his brow deeply, increasingly astonished by the strength of this young son. With the demeanor of a Three-Star Master, he had actually used a destructive technique that only a Spirit could achieve, and it was evenly matched with Yi Yun's own strike.
This was really astonishing to him, how on earth did his son cultivate?
At this time, Yi Yun only felt that he had never understood his youngest son at all. He had just said that his youngest son would only come to him when something happened, but what about himself? He had never looked for this young son, nor had he talked to him, and even more so, he had not gone deep into understanding him, which made him feel a wave of shame.
"Pool ah! It seems I was wrong about you, Father. You have the ability to go to that Demon Beast Forest on your own."
Across from him, Yi Chi, who had calmed down, heard his father's words and suddenly smiled happily. He knew that as long as he showed this strength, his father would definitely agree. This was also the reason why he chose to go head-to-head from the start, only in this way could his father truly understand his strength.
Yi Chi smiled slightly and said, "Then father, shall we compare?"
Actually, there's no need to continue comparing anymore. Father has already agreed, and besides, my internal energy is almost depleted, I reckon it won't last a hundred moves.
Yi Yun smiled and shook his head, putting away his large knife. "Let's stop competing, or else we'll end up destroying the Luoying Valley."
After finishing speaking, Yi Yun also took a look at the surrounding broken trees.
Yi Chi finally reacted and looked around, seeing the extent of the destruction. He also gave up on continuing to compare with others. If those who liked to admire flowers found out about this, they would have skinned him alive. Half of the Luoying Valley was already destroyed, and there were not many remaining Luoying trees left.
"It's just that the land of Luo is so vast, if it were like Earth, it would have been destroyed long ago." Looking at this level of destruction, Yi Chi deeply felt the terror of the people in this world. Of course, he was also terrified now, and if he returned to Earth, his destructive power would almost be on par with nuclear bombs.
......
Back home, Yi Chi and his father returned to the Cloud Rain Courtyard once again. Although he had agreed to let his son go to the Beast Forest for training, there were still some things that needed to be handed over.
Then, Yi Chi sat down quietly again, listening quietly to his father's introduction of his previous experience in the Monster Forest and some precautions.
For example, which plants not to touch, where to find fresh fruit, how to identify where high-level demons will appear, how to safely spend the night in the demon forest, and how to avoid those hateful hunters.
Lin Lin summed it up, Yi Yun said a lot, and Yi Chi also listened carefully. This is the experience of predecessors, which is beneficial to oneself and harmless, so we must listen carefully.
Finally, Yi Yun also instructed Yi Chi not to be soft-hearted and to treat the enemy with a firm hand, cutting them off completely, without giving them any chance to retort.
And Yi Chi also firmly guaranteed that he would definitely make it happen.
After everything had been settled, it was also time for dinner. Yi Yun asked Yi Chi to stay and have dinner here before leaving, and Yi Chi agreed. After all, he would be going to the Beast Forest soon and wouldn't be able to return home or see his father for a long time. This could be considered their last meal together.
"Pfft, what's with the last meal, making me feel like I'm going to die a heroic death or something." Yi Chi hastily shook off those unnecessary thoughts and focused on eating his rice.
This meal took a long time for Yi Chi to finish, and when he was about to leave, his father still looked at him with concern as he walked away, before turning back into the room, that figure, unspeakably weathered.
A child travels a thousand miles, and his mother worries; when he falls here, his father is just as worried.
