Chapter 917: The Possibility of Death
When Su Xiao handed over the seven small soul crystals to Sha, she nodded and said — " If you want to master the beast intuition, you must be prepared to die.".
Soon, she found a black cloth.
This black cloth was made of a very dense material.
— Tie it up in front of your eyes, " Sha said, and tossed it to Su Xiao.
As soon as Su Xiao took it in his hand, his expression changed.
Even though it was only resting on his arm, his perception was already almost completely suppressed.
Closing his eyes, he tried to probe the room around him, but it was very difficult to do so now.
— I warn you at once that I will not be responsible for his death. It's part of a deal, the same deal I've made dozens of times before, " Sha said, seemingly to nothing, but most likely to Alice.
Su Xiao winked at Bubtney who nodded.
Once he tied this cloth, he obviously wouldn't be able to feel anything at all, even if Sha decided to kill him.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Xiao tied the black cloth over his eyes.
His vision was now completely blocked and his perception was suppressed.
He hadn't experienced something like this in a long time.
— To master animal intuition, you need to go through a certain process. Most people rely on their perception to notice an attack. Compared to vision, perception does allow you to detect an attack much faster, but it's still a long process. First, you need to fix the trajectory of the attack, and then this trajectory must be transmitted to the brain. The brain, in turn, will issue instructions, and only then will the body take appropriate protective measures. Intuition works on a different principle. It skips this process. When you master animal intuition, you will find that perception is too slow. Intuition misses the need to transmit information to the brain. Your body itself will take the necessary protective actions. After saying all this, Sha stood behind Su Xiao and began to stretch her knuckles.
Her fingers were quite thick, which was uncharacteristic of women. Although the skin on her hands looked soft, it was actually extremely tough.
— At the same time, Sha immediately slapped Su Xiao on the back.
When Su Xiao heard Sha's shout, her fist was already right next to his back.
*Pum!*
The fist slammed into Su Xiao's back, and his entire body was immediately filled with pain.
The full force of the Sha punch sank right into his body and didn't move him a bit.
Bones, muscles, internal organs ... everything in his body was shaking with pain right now.
A taste of iron appeared in Su Xiao's mouth, and he almost vomited from being hit by Sha.
— Oh? Did you dodge? Sha asked with embarrassment.
— Of course, your fist was getting closer, and isn't it normal to instinctively dodge attacks?
Although Su Xiao's vision and perception were blocked, when Sha's fist approached his back, he sensed danger on an instinctual level. He felt this almost every other time. He just felt on an instinctive level that someone wanted to kill him.
— Do you have something similar to my skill? No, you were relying on your normal perception earlier, " Sha was a little confused, and after hearing Sha's question, Su Xiao remembered that he actually had one suitable skill.
[Shrewd Heart: Max Level 10 (Passive Skill).
Effect 1: A significant increase in perception and a significant increase in the analyzed space, 65% chance of detecting an attack that is directed at the back.
Effect 2: The probability of finding flaws in the opponent's attack or defense is 10%. If a flaw is detected, the user will switch to the "Over Limit" state.»*.
*«Over the Limit " allows you to release the full potential of your body and use it to its full potential within three seconds.]
Su Xiao had already mastered this ability for a huge amount of time, but in all that time, the second effect of this skill had never worked once.
Apart from increasing the sharpness of perception and range of perception, this skill was useless.
Su Xiao briefly described this skill to Sha, causing Sha's laughter to fill the room.
— Hahaha, do you really have that ability? Who is your teacher? If he died, then he must have died from a surprise attack, " Sha sat down on the bed, crossed her legs, and started slapping her thighs while laughing out loud.
Yes, she definitely wasn't acting like a modest girl.
— I don't have a teacher, so what's wrong with that?
— Your ability never worked.
— Partly.
— Well, it's a wonder it worked at all. There are many types of perception. What you have always relied on is the most basic perception. This can be described by the fact that you bought a bucket for the sake of carrying more water, but still continued to carry this water in your hands, although you should have used the bucket for its intended purpose, of course?
— Perception appears in each creature after its mental power has reached a certain level. Perception is the most basic ability, and eventually it becomes something that everyone starts using on a subconscious level. Something like an instinct. As for your ability, it is derived from your perception. Your ability and my beast intuition are based on perception, but they are on very different levels, but both of these abilities are superior to basic perception as such.
Sha was very experienced. In the world she lived in, fighting was a very important part of the whole world. After becoming a prisoner in this castle, she spent most of her time training.
— Now that your basic perception was blocked, and completely blocked, so that even at the level of your instincts, you couldn't use it, your subconscious mind remembered this ability, the so-called "Discerning Heart". This ability will help you master animal intuition faster. No need to give up on it. Let it go, " Sha said, and jumped out of bed.
— How long will it take to learn this ability?
Right now, time was Su Xiao's biggest problem.
He had less than three days.
— If you react to the attacks, it's only one day, of course, if you don't die. When you start dodging my attacks with just your body and not your perception, you will officially develop beast intuition. Now you're just laying the groundwork.
Sha started throwing punches, and Su Xiao tried to dodge them.
His 'Discerning Heart' skill was finally working its best.
Su Xiao suddenly felt a fist rapidly approaching his back, and his body immediately began to turn around.
His body slammed into the wall.
*Boom!*
Su Xiao slammed his forehead against the wall. His head started to feel heavy, and he subconsciously wanted to rip off that black cloth.
Sha immediately shouted — " Don't pick it, or it will all be in vain." You can't take it off until you can dodge my attacks.
Su Xiao's hand froze, and in the end, he didn't dare remove the blindfold.
If Sha really wanted to kill him, the first attack should have hit him in the body, and the second one should have hit his head, but the second one also hit his body, plus if you didn't take into account the collision with the wall, then these two attacks weren't so powerful that he could die from them.
— You've adjusted to two punches, so now I'm going to hit you for real. Only when your life is at risk can you reach your full potential.
Hearing what Sha said, Su Xiao became serious.
If Sha used all his strength, he would be seriously injured in just two or three strikes.
Now he realized that Sha wasn't joking about the possibility that he might die in the process..
