Divine Harem: My Sect of Heavenly Beauties

Shen Yu made Ning Xi have a piggy ride on his back and held her plump thighs, enjoying the sweet time...well, as much as the sweet environment it was.

"You see, the Black Knight are very special and are artificially made. Not much is known about their origin except that they guard something at the underground of the Hollow Mountains. They rarely venture out from there so seeing this guy here is a surprise.

Oh yeah, what you encountered can be said to be among the weakest bunch of them. After all, they go upto Tier 9 from what I know."

Ning Xi was dumbfounded and couldn't react for a while. It was a huge blow to her, even though she knew it was for a long time, that even the strongests here were the weakest outside.

"Master, is the other side really that powerful?"

"Hmm, yeah. They have better resources, better environment, more population but that also means they have to face powerful Spiritual Creatures everyday there. And believe me, the Spiritual Creatures here are very weak and should I say, sweet compared to the horrors of outside world."

Shen Yu explained, as he walked in the empty crater, towards the Black Knight.

"That Dark Vraksha, tell me how would a Qi Refining Realm practitioner feel against it?"

Ning Xi thought for a while as she remembered how Ning Xue behaved and could already guess the mental attack the Dark Vraksha did.

Shen Yu smiled and continued.

"You see, the Spritual Creatures aren't always direct attackers. Many of them break humans from inside out, even without fighting. That's why they're called horrors. The Dark Vraksha is very weak per se but it can break our mind if our Cultivation and will power is low."

Shen Yu finally reached the Black Knight and looked at the flames burning in the visors of its helmet.

"So, don't be envious of outside world. Yes, they are powerful but they also break pretty easily because of their opponents. That side, I was talking about Black Knight. So yeah, they are artificially created and are just a hollow armour."

Ning Xi nodded, as she remembered what she had seen when she punched a hole in it. There was nothing inside, completely empty.

"That is why, their armour can be said to be their skin which is almost impenetrable as you have seen and worse is that the armour has insane regenerative properties. In just a few seconds, it healed such a big hole."

"Isn't it pretty much invincible then? I mean, even if we somehow overpower the weaker one, what about the Tier 9 Black Knight?"

Ning Xi asked, as she tried to look for any weakness, which she sadly didn't found.

"In a way, yes. That's why nobody bothers with them, especially since the powerful Black Knights never leave their underground home. Though, there is a weakness to even them."

"What is it?"

"Get off me and I'll teach you something. Then, I'll tell you about its weakness."

Ning Xi nodded, got off from his back, and went to sit on a tree that was uprooted in their battle. Well, only its trunk was left and everything was already destroyed.

Shen Yu smiled and stood, having his hand behind his back as he looked at the the menacing Black Knight. He muttered.

"Come!"

The Black Knight was free from its restrains and attacked Shen Yu instantly, bringing the heavy Obsidian sword at him, intending to chop off his head.

"You don't need to look at its sword or hands to predict the hand. Look at how its body is reacting and predict its attacks on that. There is only one law in battle, kill or be killed. Remember that."

Shen Yu was looking down, not even bothering to raise his head and side-stepped, making the obsidian sword fall in the ground which made a huge cut in the ground which was almost a hundred metres long.

Shen Yu continued to explain as he dodged more and more attacks with very subtle and nimble movements. It was a technique former Shen Yu had developed himself and Shen Yu had just practiced it more to get in habit of it.

After the incident at Wind Flower Sect and whole training after that, Shen Yu knew he also needed to work on his strength. He could easily turn the whole Qing Empire upside down with his raw power but it was brute force in the end.

He also wanted to be a role model for his disciples so he had began to learn his former techniques and also got some from the system.

This was just one of many where he was able to predict enemies next attacks based on minimal information he observed, like which muscle bulged more showing which hand or leg the force was being put it and where it could attack from that point on.

It wasn't an easy task as you needed to battle, observe every movement of the enemy and then predict it. However, he had managed to learn it.

Ning Xi was astonished as she looked how Shen Yu basically used nothing to avoid all the attacks she was struggling against. It wasn't even about being on Higher realm but pure skill.

'Predict through body movements.'

"Of course, you also need to observe your own movements and see if your opponent is changing their attack. Anything can happen so you should be prepared for everything."

Shen Yu continued to play with the Black Knight, which once again destroyed a major part of the Tando Woodlands and if someone from a distance saw it, they would see a giant clearing in the middle of Tando Woodlands with a deep crater in it.

"This should be enough for now. Did you learn something?"

Shen Yu asked, clicking his finger as the figure of Black Knight stopped moving. Ning Xi didn't answer as she was deep in contemplation.

Shen Yu clicked his fingers beside her ears, bringing her back to reality. Ning Xi was startled and nodded in excitement.

"Master, this is a priceless technique. I wanna learn it."
