Chapter 90: Seven Injuries Fist and Crimson Flame Palm!
Rumble…
The tall, skinny guy and the Green Jade Python were engaged in a fierce battle nearby. Everywhere the snake went, the ground would split, trees would break, and bits of stones and sand would fly everywhere.
Whenever enemies meet, old wounds are opened. The snake stared keenly at the man, sticking to him at all times, not letting him have a moment of rest.
“Brother Ji, hurry up and end this fight! I can’t contain this snake for much longer!” The tall, skinny man shouted. He was already in a dangerous and bad shape. The powerful winds created by the snake’s tail swinging had left him with disheveled hair and bruises all over. A trail of blood ran down the corner of his mouth.
The leader, who was called “Brother Ji,” started to take his fight more seriously. He realized that this brat was full of abnormalities. At the start of the fight, he was still able to catch up to the kid, but now, he had absolutely no way of following the kid’s movements.
When the leader saw his companion’s situation, he grimaced and clenched his teeth slightly. He used his saber technique, and power shot forth from it. As Yuan Qi rippled out, light erupted from the blade, creating a seal, and a strong golden light blasted forth from the saber.
“Brat! If you have the guts, then do not move!”
The leader hollered. He found an opportunity. With the slash of his saber like lightning, a golden light glimmered, and a merciless, cruel aura emanated as the blade swung down on Su Yi. The saber sliced through the air, sending sand and broken stones flying.
Now, there was no doubt that the leader was using all his might. He was no longer holding anything back.
“Swish!”
Su Yi continued using the “Hundred Transformations Step.” The essence of the technique lay in its countless transformations. Tricking people, making his movements seem real yet fake, almost impossible to follow.
His body left a trail of afterimages, and Su Yi managed to achieve the unimaginable as he barely dodged the saber.
“Swish!”
But the sharp wind managed to cut a few strands of Su Yi’s black hair, leaving a stinging pain on his face.
“Keke, brat, you really are only at the Yuan Soul Realm. In the end, you are still too young! Now, die!”
Suddenly, at the same time, the leader sneered vehemently. He had already planned for this circumstance to occur. That slash was simply a feint.
Behind the trail of light left by the saber, his left hand clenched into a fist and shot out.
Golden Yuan Qi enveloped the fist like a golden membrane. A ruthless aura exploded in that instance.
“Mountain Shattering Fist!”
The man shouted as his fist, brimming with golden light, sealed all paths in front of Su Yi and furiously headed towards him.
This fist was his real attack. Ruthless and swift, it shook the space around it as the energies of heaven and earth resonated in a buzz.
However, Su Yi’s expression stayed composed, and the corner of his mouth curled slightly upward. His expression conveyed that he had anticipated this action and had been anticipating it the entire time.
Su Yi’s speed increased instantly as he approached a dangerous situation. Yuan Qi surged through his broad, refined meridians like a flash flood.
His robust and wide meridians allowed the maximum amount of Yuan Qi to flow rapidly through his body.
It was like comparing a small, slow stream to a raging, wide river. The force and intimidating aura of the two could not be compared at all.
Within the same cultivation level, Su Yi’s meridians were like the raging wide river; his Yuan Qi was also far more condensed than cultivators of the same level as him.
It was the first time Su Yi used his full might during this fight with the man.
Facing the man’s ringed saber, even if Su Yi had an extremely tough body, he did not dare to take the blade head-on. Finally, he found an opening within the man’s attacks.
Yuan Qi bubbled throughout Su Yi’s body as he felt the fist’s viciousness. Bloodlust swirled in the depths of his eyes, alongside a desire to fight. The coldness of his eyes sent shivers down people’s backs. Yuan Qi rushed through his body’s special meridians, causing a wave of power to explode from within Su Yi.
[T.N: The “special meridians” mentioned above do not refer to how Su Yi’s meridians are special, but rather a special set of meridians that is specially used for the move. Recall the earlier few chapters where Su Yi had to open several meridians needed for the martial art techniques.
“Seven Injuries Fist!”
Su Yi shouted within his heart. At the same time, Su Yi let loose his fist, the aura around his body burst out, and black-colored Yuan Qi flowed. With a violent, thick wall of wind, his fist recoiled and shot out straight against the incoming fist.
“Boom!”
The two fists collided in the blink of an eye. The different Yuan Qi smashed against each other; the impact of the energies gave off the sound of an explosion like that of roaring thunder, echoing through the forest. A curtain of sand and stones was sent soaring into the air as the ground trembled.
“Pat, pat.”
Su Yi stumbled backward due to the terrible wind. After a few steps, he planted his foot and quickly balanced himself. He wasn’t expecting this. This “Mountain Shattering Fist” was very powerful.
For the man, he was sent sliding back across the ground, forming two straight trails with his feet. The ringed saber in his right hand had been hit off his hand by the impact. The membrane-like Yuan Qi on his left fist was cracked, his face was pale, and his hand was bruised and sore.
What shocked the man the most was that the fist contained a terrifying power; wave after wave, it hit his fist endlessly. The fist had seven different forces; it may be aggressive, it may be calm, or it may have calmness within the fierceness of the fist or fierceness within the calm. The force can be shot out, or it can be retracted, or it impacts the opponent directly. He could not block the continuous impacts at all.
“Puh!”
Finally, the horrific waves of impact badly wounded his internal organs. The man could not take it any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood.
“This is definitely not a normal martial art technique. His origin is not as simple as I thought!”
The man stabilized himself, but his heart quivered. He had suffered internal injuries and realized that the brat’s martial art technique was far stronger than his “Mountain Shattering Fist.”.
This brat was obviously only in the Yuan Soul Realm Sixth Grade, but the Yuan Qi within his body was exceptionally strong, and combined with that extremely powerful martial art skill, he severely injured him. This surprised the man.
“Swoosh!”
The moment the man had just stopped moving backwards, Su Yi dashed forward, leaving only a trail of afterimages behind. The black-colored Yuan Qi that surrounded his body had also changed to a deep crimson.
“Not good!”
The man’s heart missed a beat. He was panicking. At the start, he thought nothing of the brat, but now, his heart was palpitating with fear.
That brat was so young, and he could already fight him, a Yuan Xuan Realm who was almost at the peak of the first grade and even injured him.
In a few years’ time, wouldn’t this kid be even stronger?
Furthermore, the situation at hand was more important. This kid does not seem to have any intention of letting him go; the brat was way too fast.
“Crimson Flame Palm!”
The hand seal formed, and fire attribute Yuan Qi exploded. With a low roar, Su Yi dashed towards the man to attack him.
When the beast is sick, take its life! Su Yi did not want to miss such a good chance.
He had cultivated the “Crimson Flame Palm” and “Seven Injuries Fist” together. Both were General grade martial art techniques; right now, Su Yi held nothing back.
Fire attribute Yuan Qi flowed like a blazing fire emanating from the hand seal. That fiery aura made the air around him vibrate with heat, causing a burning sensation on the skin and hairs to stand on their ends.
The face of the man changed greatly. He had no time to block this attack. He let his Yuan Qi out to form a cocoon, enveloping his entire body.
Yuan Qi Cocoon. This was the difference between a Yuan Xuan Realm and a Yuan Soul Realm.
At the same time, frigid bloodlust burst forth from his heart. Bloodlust stirred from his gaze. He did not believe that this brat, who was only in the Yuan Soul Realm Sixth Grade, could face him head-on. He extended his right arm and met Su Yi’s attack with a palm.
