177 Approximation (1/2)
Jie Wuming turned deathly pale after Fang Yuan dispelled his poisonous technique.
He looked at Fang Yuan, his voice hoarse, ”You would not stop until you are dead?”
”Jie Wuming, remember this, you are in no position to bargain with me, much less threaten me!”
Fang Yuan's expression was cold. He arrived beside Jie Wuming, his right hand took on the shape of claws and he struck down!
”Pila!”
He used the Eagle Claw Iron Skin Technique to reach the level of Wu Zong which was a majestic and ferocious skill. He now possessed the Second Elemental Force and was on par with a Wu Zong who had trained with the Yang Family's Qian Kun Giant Spiritual Technique. He now had enormous strength and as such, the technique was hard to block.
Jie Wuming's skills were originally lower than his and depended completely on his poison technique.
However, his poison technique was dispelled and he was in dire condition.
”You...”
He barely finished saying a word before a gust from the claw struck him which severed his right arm.
Jie Wuming was shocked as he met Fang Yuan's cold gaze.
”I am only using my prowess as a Wu Zong. If you are not even able to counter this, you might as well die here!”
Fang Yuan's hands moved like the wind and created many illusions of his claws.
”This...”
Yu Xiaohong and Yu Feishui looked on in a daze.
A Wu Zong! Zhu Country's top fighter! A renowned king of poison! He was being pressured to such an extent?
Duo Mingshu and Lady Miao Hua trembled in their shoes but dared not leave, their hearts beating wildly.
”Xiuxiu!”
The gale was fierce.
Fang Yuan became happier as he fought.
With the experience from his dream, his Eagle Claw Iron Skin Technique had reached the level of a master!
On this mainland, where martial arts were beginning to become extinct, there was nothing after the Elemental Gathering Realm! However, Yang Fan was from the Da Qian Empire where martial arts was commonplace, he knew that there was still the Elemental Opening Realm after the Elemental Gathering Realm!
Gathering the spiritual meridian, with every one increasing the elemental force, would allow one to obtain the Divine Body in martial arts!
”I have deduced the method of opening the meridian using the Qian Kun Giant Spiritual Technique. As the Eagle Lieutenant, he had gathered experience by reading extensively the collection in the county and strengthened his foundation. The next step would be to open the spiritual meridian while using my Eagle Claw Iron Skin Technique and enter the Meridian Opening Realm!”
In Fang Yuan's eyes, Jie Wuming had become a good target.
”Xiuxiu!”
The sound became more intense.
The countless illusions transformed as the wild wind howled and whipped around. Suddenly, the illusions disappeared and revealed the figure of Jie Wuming.
The old man was drenched in sweat. His face turned pale and he collapsed!
If Fang Yuan did not hold back, he might die of exhaustion!
”Bring him away!”
Fang Yuan stood straight and looked at Jie Wuming.
In his mind, Jie Wuming was an excellent subject for his experiment.
From the previous fight, he had a rough sensing of the next stage of the Eagle Claw Iron Skin Technique. If he was able to use Wu Zong as the base to continue his experimentation, he would be able to deduce the method to open his spiritual meridian.
'Such a shame...these techniques originated from the Qian Kun Giant Spiritual Technique. If my experiment is successful, I would be able to change the name of the Eagle Claw Iron Skin Technique...'
Truth be told, that was nothing much.
After all, the Eagle Claw Technique was the most basic of the skills with many variations such as the Giant Strength Eagle Claw Technique and the Poison Claw. The skill is compatible with other moves. As such even if there was a Giant Spiritual Eagle Claw, it would not be a problem.
'Of course...I must be cautious in this step! I would need to figure it out in my dreams and then practice it in real life...as this is from the Qian Kun Giant Spiritual Technique, its impact would be great. I am just afraid that I would be unable to break through the limit and fail to complete the technique!'
Fang Yuan's eyes were serene. He knew that he had yet another reason to visit the Da Qian Empire.
”Un...understood!”
Yu Xiaohong was in a daze and unconsciously agreed to it. Soon after, she came around, her face flushed like an apple, and vigorously shook her head.
”Since this is the request of Prefecture Master Fang, I would accomplish it at all cost. It is just that if we want to wait until Jie Wuming wakes up...cough cough...”
Yu Feishui clambered up and struggled to speak.
”Rest assured, I will not leave during this time!”
Fang Yuan stood up straight and smiled. ”The scenery here is enchanting. I want to stay here for a while and am not sure if the both of you will agree to it?”
”Of course! Definitely!”
Yu Feishui and Yu Xiaohong nodded their head as if they were chicks feeding on grains.
”Oh, and the two of you...”
Fang Yuan turned around and looked at Duo Mingshu and Lady Miao Hua.
”The two of you...if you require any compensation, discuss it with Yu Feishui!”
Fang Yuan waved his hand.
”Thank you, sir, for your generosity!”
The two of them expressed their gratitude and repeatedly kowtowed as if they had been given a pardon.
...
With a Wu Zong in town, the threat from the Golden Dragon Sect became a joke.
When Fang Yuan's identity was leaked out, those that were looking at him with ill intentions retreated and some even came forward with gifts as apologies.
Half a month later.
Golden Dragon Sect Mountain.
”Jiujiu!”
The eagle's cry rang out and pierced the clouds, the sound travelled for miles.
