C39 (2/2)

Zhai Yingkong couldn't take it anymore. He wanted to say something to Xiao Li again and again, but he was stopped by Ling Qingyun. In fact, Zhai Yingkong also knew about martial arts. Only when he had a deep understanding of it could he freely use it. However, when he saw that Xiao Li's Thousand Hands Illusory Flower Palm was no match for another's palm technique, he felt embarrassed and wanted to speak out.

At this moment, Xiao Li was extremely angry. He had been repeatedly attacked, but he had not been able to return the favor. At the same time, he had been treated as a joke by his subordinates. Anyone else would have died from anger. Xiao Li's chest felt stuffy, but he continued to execute his moves. Under the urging of the stuffy Qi, his True Qi continuously flowed into his hands. Even he himself was not aware of the changes in his body, and was only focused on dealing with the hall master's martial arts. However, his two palms slowly began to change. His two palms gradually turned transparent, and actually started to shine with glittering crystal lights. His hands, which were originally slightly black, now turned paler and paler. They became more and more transparent. There seemed to be some kind of white mist inside them, giving people a mysterious feeling that it was completely unreal.

Of course, no one else could see these changes because Xiao Li's ”Thousand Hand Illusory Flower” palm technique was simply too fast. Only two people present could feel the changes in his palm. One of them was the hall master who was fighting with Xiao Li. He could clearly feel a strange force emitting from Xiao Li's palm. The force actually made him feel like there was no place to exert his strength to attack. If that was true, then there was only one possibility. The other party's inner strength was even deeper than his. But how could the other party have such profound inner strength at such an age? That was too inconceivable.

Previously, when his inner force was being suppressed by the opponent, he could still attribute it to his opponent's strange inner force. But now that he was using his full force, both sides did not have any tricks up their sleeves. Although the opponent looked like a junior who had just entered the martial world, he was still fine after being hit a few times.

The doubt in his heart was quickly shattered because he could clearly feel that the pressure from Xiao Li was getting greater and greater. Moreover, Xiao Li's palm was gradually emitting a kind of cold and sinister wind. That palm wind was extremely strange. When it brushed past his face, he actually felt a shiver in his heart. This kind of feeling was not only from the coldness of the palm wind, but also from the bottom of his heart. It was as if he was born to fear this wind from the palm wind.

The other person was Ling Qingyun. He had been closely observing Xiao Li's condition, afraid that something would happen to him. Thus, he also sensed that Xiao Li's strength had changed. His palm was actually covered with a dense Qi. He didn't think that Xiao Li would actually be able to achieve a breakthrough in this gambling match. This kind of transformation clearly indicated that Xiao Li's inner strength had undergone a qualitative change and had actually dispersed into his moves. However, if an expert was brimming with inner strength, then his true strength would constantly fill every corner of his body, like a protective shield. This was also known as the protective magical technique, so he would only need to control the inner strength in his body to obtain the desired place, which was the state of being able to control one's will. Normally, when such an expert made a move, the true energy in his body would circulate around his entire body, releasing dense Qi which could not only relieve the opponent's defense, but also sensitively transmit the surrounding movement to prevent a sneak attack.

Now that Xiao Li's hands were emitting dense Qi, how could Ling Qingyun not be surprised and happy for Xiao Li with such an unexpected harvest?

However, he felt that the hall master's fierce and swift attack seemed to have slowed down a bit, and the pressure it put on him seemed to be much weaker than before. He thought to himself: ”I'm probably tired. Hehe, let's see just how strong I am now.” His thoughts were already moving, his attacks were getting faster and faster, and the moves in his hands were getting more and more unpredictable. Just as he was about to make a move, he was suddenly stopped by the hall master. When the hall master tried to counterattack, he had already reached his shoulder, forcing him to spin around. He could only defend, not retaliate.

When Xiao Li saw this situation, the discouragement he felt earlier disappeared. His attacks became sharper. Not only did he smile, but he also felt more confident and his attacks became smoother. He succeeded in one move with a continuous effect. Suddenly, with a move called 'Muscle hide', his left hand went to the three major acupoints of 'Tianxi', 'food sinus', and 'Chest Xiang', while his right hand went to cover the 'Blood Sea' and 'Ju Gate'. This move completely targeted the acupoints in the 'Foot Taiyin Lung Meridian', attacking the acupoints near the left breast one above, and then attacking the right leg one after another. That hall master probably didn't expect Xiao Li to be so bold as to squat down and open the door to attack. In a moment of shock, Xiao Li had already attacked. He quickly dodged to the right and swiped his left palm across the top of Xiao Li's head. His right palm struck Xiao Li's right hand.

Xiao Li did not seem to be moved by his dodging. His left hand struck out at his left hand, but his right hand continued to attack without change. Seeing both of their hands connected for the first time, and with a crisp sound, the hall master's left hand clashed with Xiao's left hand. Xiao Li's left hand had knocked him back a step, and his right hand had just passed through his right hand, striking his right leg. The hall master felt as if he had lost all feeling in his leg. His palm strike with Xiao Li seemed to have suffered some internal injuries. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Xiao Li's attack was successful, but he didn't take advantage of the situation to give chase. Instead, he dashed like lightning to his subordinate who had been talking to him. Halfway there, he sent a palm strike towards his subordinate. Everyone saw a white mist, which was like frost, charge towards the subordinate like a sharp blade with a whistling sound. They could only be alarmed by it. They thought to themselves, ”Is this person crazy? He just injured the master and he suddenly ambushed one of his subordinates.” It seemed that his loyal subordinate was going to die here.

However, things went beyond everyone's expectations. His subordinate's reaction was exceptionally nimble. When the white blade had reached him, he had already rolled to the side. With a ”pa” sound, the white blade hit the limestone, leaving a faint mark.
