When system cheat becomes rampant!

"This kid, he noticed so quickly?" Elder Luo looked at Xiang Beifei with a rather surprised expression.

From being unilaterally beaten by the Three-Armed Saber Ape at the beginning to now being in the same situation and withstanding the ape's assault, the whole process had been completed in just a brief ten minutes.

The so-called asymmetric attack is a kind of mental assault.

After Xiang Beifei passed Yuchi Shen's entrance examination, Elder Luo mentioned something to him.

Many desolate beasts are very peculiar, and some are not afraid of physical attacks at all.

At that time, Elder Luo gave him an example of a desolate beast called Meng Huai.

This kind of beast is intangible and exists only in dreams. It can drag people into dreams and then kill them there.

This method is extremely strange; in the dream, even if the person has a strong fist and powerful attack methods, they are ineffective against Meng Huai.

To combat such beasts, there is only one way, and that is to use spiritual power!

By using spiritual power, one can forcefully conjure various illusions in the dream to combat and kill Meng Huai!

And the mental attack of Meng Huai is precisely an asymmetric attack!

In the dream, it can kill pioneers; those not adept at mental power can only passively take hits in the dream and cannot strike back at Meng Huai. The attack methods of the two sides are not compatible, hence asymmetric.

The Three-Armed Saber Ape before him is not a real blade ape but a desolate beast similar to Meng Huai, a strange illusion condensed by spiritual power.

The blade's edge of the Three-Armed Saber Ape is an attack from spiritual power, so it can hit Xiang Beifei, while Xiang Beifei, relying on sheer brute strength, cannot touch the ape at all, and all his attack methods are ineffective against the Three-Armed Saber Ape.

Thus to deal with the Three-Armed Saber Ape, one can only rely on spiritual power!

"Good lad, always bringing me surprises."

Elder Luo had been teaching Beifei how to use spiritual power for several months, shouting various songs every day to temper his student's mental fortitude. Although Beifei had not yet climbed ashore from the great river, his spiritual power was growing stronger each day.

He brought Xiang Beifei here, knowing that there were spiritual power desolate beasts in this area, so he let Xiang Beifei try his hand.

Just now, Beifei quickly permeated his spiritual power throughout his body, which meant he had also developed a defense based on spiritual power. At this point, he only needed to rely on spiritual power to block that peerless blade's edge. Once blocked by spiritual strength, the blade could not cut into his true body.

It's like, Meng Huai kills people, but can only do so in dreams. When a person is killed in a dream, their consciousness is erased, but their body remains unharmed.

Even if the Three-Armed Saber Ape had hit him just now, it was actually only striking his mental consciousness, so in reality, his body would not be injured.

The pain Beifei felt in his ribs as if they were breaking and not being able to withstand the blade's force was, in fact, just an illusion created by the attack on his mental consciousness by the blade ape.

To kill the Three-Armed Saber Ape, Beifei only needed to wrap his fist in spiritual power and confront it.

"Now it's your turn."

Xiang Beifei's gaze fell upon the rock wall!

The ravines in the rock wall still emitted appealing sounds, as the wind blew over the differently indented stone walls. He stared intently at that part of the rock face, with his spiritual power swiftly spreading over it.

Whoosh!

Bursts of flame erupted from the rock face, pouring into the ravines. The roaring of the flames disrupted the strange tones in the air, and the melodious sound suddenly vanished. At this moment, a sharp screech pierced the air as a shadow rapidly emerged from the ravines, attempting to flee.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

However, Xiang Beifei's figure flashed, and he had already leaped high onto the gobi, hurling a punch at the fleeing shadow!

Crack!

A centipede, the size of a palm, was smashed to the ground with his punch and was instantly killed!

"It turned out to be a small centipede."

Xiang Beifei looked at the centipede lying on the ground. In fact, the centipede was about fifteen centimeters long, not small by any means, but compared to the desolate beasts of this foreign domain, fifteen centimeters truly was minuscule.

"This is a Silent Centipede." Elder Luo came over, explaining with a look of admiration, "Don't be fooled by its small size, and it might seem like it has low defensive power since a slap could kill it, but actually, it's one of the most domineering beasts in this region."

"Silent Centipede, what a strange name."

Xiang Beifei had not learned about this kind of desolate beast before. He picked up the centipede's body, prodded it, and then dug out a black Beast Pill.

The Beast Pill of the Meridian Opening stage was wrapped in a morbid aura, but the spiritual power crystal contained within was of exceptionally high purity.

"The Silent Centipede is a type of desolate beast that utilizes spiritual power, similar to Meng Huai; its own combat ability is very weak. But the thing about it is, it can control sounds. This gobi is very special; don't think that the place they inhabit lacks significance. This gobi has a very peculiar magnetic field capable of recording events. "

Elder Luo pointed at the blood-red gobi; the rocks looked dauntingly red as if they were about to drip blood. Each stone was weighty, with pebbles falling from it being heavier than the average stone.

"Magnetic field?"

Xiang Beifei was somewhat surprised, carefully examining the stones but not having noticed such magnetic fields. So, these stones are akin to iron ores?

"Yes, a magnetic field. Any recording of images relies on magnetism for storage. So that Three-Armed Saber Ape from earlier must have been a record of a battle one had here with another desolate beast, an event this beast captured using the gobi's magnetic field. It controls these magnetic fields by various depths of ravines, manipulating some special images with spiritual power, then launching attacks on any person or beast that passes by."
