Chapter 135: Palm Power in the Air, Three Feet Away

Time flies by like a white horse.

Before they knew it, Chu Yuan and Gou Zazhong had been at Motian Cliff for two years, and Chu Yuan was already fifteen years old.

During these two years, Chu Yuan practiced the "Nine Heavens Divine Art" to the level of the seventh meridian.

Although he has not recovered his peak combat power, he is already able to use the "Nine Heavens Gangqi".

When your strength is already at your strongest, the gap is not that big.

This morning.

The east was already bright, and the beginnings of a rosy glow appeared, like a thin thread gently brushing, gradually dyeing the sky.

Chu Yuan sat cross-legged on the huge rock beside the cliff. He slowly opened his eyes and a gleam of light emerged from his eyes and flashed away.

Xie Yanke, who was practicing "Green Needle Clear Palm" not far away, happened to see this scene. He felt that he even sensed a strong sense of threat from Chu Yuan just now, and his heart was immediately shocked.

"Could it be that this kid's strength is already stronger than mine?"

Xie Yanke said in his heart.

"No, that's impossible. How old is he..."

Xie Yanke shook his head.

Then he stopped paying attention to Chu Yuan and continued to practice his "Green Needle Clear Palm".

After Chu Yuan opened his eyes, he sensed the progress of the "Nine Heavens Divine Art" in his body, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

"In just two years, I have already mastered the seventh meridian of the Nine Heavens Divine Art!"

Chu Yuan said in surprise.

"The reason why I cultivated so fast in my previous life was because I cultivated the Sunflower Manual by exploiting a bug. The Sunflower Manual and the Nine Heavens Divine Art were cultivated together. Logically speaking, my cultivation speed in this life should not be as fast as in my previous life."

Such a thought flashed through Chu Yuan's mind.

"But in this life, not only has my root bone aptitude improved, but even the capacity of my Dantian Qi Sea has increased."

Chu Yuan said in his heart.

In his previous life, after he mastered the sixth meridian of the "Nine Heavens Divine Art" and then mastered the "Sunflower Manual", the internal force in his dantian qi sea had reached its limit.

But now, he has already mastered the seventh meridian of "Nine Heavens Divine Art" and feels that he is still a long way from filling up his Dantian Qi sea with internal force.

"Is it because the upper limit of the world has been raised? Or is it because in this life, I have only practiced one martial art, the Nine Heavens Divine Art?"

Chu Yuan was making guesses in his mind.

"Anyway, I am now considered a top master in this martial arts world."

Chu Yuan's heart moved.

In the past, he had a unique swordsmanship, but without the internal strength to support it, he was just a mere showpiece.

Once you meet a real master, you will be defeated.

But now he has practiced the "Nine Heavens Divine Art" to the seventh meridian, and he feels that it won't take long before he can practice the "Nine Heavens Divine Art" to the eighth meridian... or even the ninth meridian.

"Mr. Xie, how about a sparring match?"

Chu Yuan stood up and said to Xie Yanke who was not far away.

Xie Yanke's martial arts skills are considered top-notch in the entire martial arts world.

There are very few people in the martial arts world who can defeat him, but this excludes the group of monsters on the Island of Heroes and the later-stage Dog Brother next to him.

Chu Yuan had mastered the basic skills of martial arts, and was ready to fight with Xie Yanke.

"You want to fight me?"

Hearing Chu Yuan's words, Xie Yanke stopped practicing martial arts. He pointed at Chu Yuan and looked at him with some surprise.

He did not deny that Chu Yuan was a genius, as he was able to defeat Bai Wanren, a master of the Snow Mountain Sect, with his swordsmanship two years ago. However, he, Xie Yanke, was also one of the best masters in the world. He did not think that Chu Yuan would be his opponent after two years of practicing martial arts.

"That's right, Mr. Xie. You and I practice martial arts all day long, and I'm afraid we will benefit more from fighting each other!"

Chu Yuan said to Xie Yanke.

"it is good!"

Xie Yanke agreed without any hesitation.

With his current status and strength, there is no way he can refuse Chu Yuan.

Otherwise, it would seem like he was a little afraid of Chu Yuan.

"You are good at palm techniques, I won't take advantage of you, I will also fight you with palm techniques."

Chu Yuan said to Xie Yanke.

"Good boy, how dare you look down on me..."

Chu Yuan was obviously best at swordsmanship, but he used palm techniques to fight against him. Xie Yanke felt that he was looked down upon by Chu Yuan, and he said angrily.

"Mr. Xie, my palm skills are not weak."

Chu Yuan smiled at Xie Yanke.

Upon hearing that Chu Yuan and Xie Yanke were going to compete, Gou Zazhong and Ah Huang also ran over and stood by to watch the fun.

"That's right, Mr. Xie, Brother Chu's palm skills are not weak. Two years ago, at the Houjian gathering, the fourth leader of the Golden Sword Village was injured by Brother Chu's palm."

The bastard testified.

"In that case, then come on."

After hearing what the bastard said, Xie Yanke no longer dared to underestimate Chu Yuan. He began to pay more attention to Chu Yuan.

"My palm technique is called 'Heart-Destroying Palm', which is designed to injure the internal organs. The palm force is cold and vicious. If it hits the heart, it will break into seven or eight pieces and cause death. Mr. Xie, please be careful."

Chu Yuan told Xie Yanke about the palm technique he was going to perform.

Upon hearing this, Xie Yanke's expression suddenly became serious. It seemed that the power of this "Heart-Destroying Palm" was extremely extraordinary.

No wonder Chu Yuan was able to use this palm technique to injure Zhou Mu, the fourth in command of Jindao Village, with one palm strike two years ago.

Although Zhou Mu was just a nobody in his own eyes, he had some reputation in the martial arts world and could barely be considered a master. However, he was defeated by the unknown and fledgling Chu Yuan.

"This palm technique of mine is called 'Green Needle Clear Palm'. It is a palm technique I just created. The characteristics of this palm technique are the internal force agitation and the freedom of control. The practitioner can use the internal force to agitate the pine needles, and shoot thousands of pine needles back into the sky, never letting the pine needles fall to the ground. After practicing to the level of freedom of control, one can even reach the powerful level of being able to hurt people with flying flowers and falling leaves."

Xie Yanke introduced his palm technique to Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan was a little surprised when he heard this, because he knew that Xie Yanke knew the martial art "Green Needle Clear Palm".

But I didn't expect that the martial art "Green Needle Clear Palm" was actually created by Xie Yanke himself.

No wonder he can become a top master in the world.

No matter which world or world, as long as one can create his own martial arts, his basic strength will not be too weak.

Chu Yuan stopped talking, having said all the polite words.

It's time to take action. After all, it's just a sparring match, not a life-and-death battle.

Chu Yuan suddenly stretched out his right hand and struck towards Xie Yanke who was not far away.

Chu Yuan swung out with his palm, an invisible and intangible, but cold and poisonous palm force, accompanied by a palm wind, fell towards Xie Yanke who was three meters away.

Chu Yuan's current palm power limit can reach about three meters in the air.

Seeing that Chu Yuan was so far away from him, but still swung his palm towards him, a terrifying palm force came towards him. He could already feel the tremendous pressure from the palm force.

"Green Array Clear Palm!"

Xie Yanke shouted loudly, and the green and yellow pine needles that had fallen on the ground around him flew up from the ground one after another.

As his palms moved, the pine needles that flew up from the ground swirled around his body, and he seemed to be in a ball of needles.

He sensed that Chu Yuan's palm power was about to reach him.

The needle ball surrounding his body suddenly shrank and turned into a needle ball with a diameter of one foot in the center of his palms, which was suddenly pushed out with his palms.

The needle ball and Chu Yuan's palm power collided with each other.

boom!
After a loud noise.

The strong energy swept in all directions, like a gust of wind that swept across an area of ​​one or two miles around, blowing the branches of the surrounding trees to and fro.

After this palm strike, Chu Yuan stood firmly in place.

However, Xie Yanke was knocked back a step by the sudden burst of force from the collision of the two palms.

It’s clear who is strong and who is weak!
"Good boy, I knew your swordsmanship was strong, but I didn't expect your palm skills to be so strong."

Xie Yanke's eyes were full of disbelief as he looked at Chu Yuan not far away.

Although he only faced one palm strike, he was able to get a glimpse of the whole picture from just this one palm strike. He knew that with his current strength, he was no match for Chu Yuan.

"However, I refuse to accept the defeat. My Green Needle Palm is just a new creation and I have not yet mastered it. Once I have mastered it, even if I cannot defeat you, I will not lose to you either."

Xie Yanke said unconvinced.

In fact, he still has some martial arts skills that he has not yet displayed.

But so is Chu Yuan!

At least in the competition just now, Chu Yuan did not use his best sword skills.

In the palm technique competition, he lost to Chu Yuan.

"Then wait until Mr. Xie has mastered the Green Needle Palm, and then come challenge me for a duel."

Chu Yuan smiled.

It took him two years to practice the "Nine Heavens Divine Art" to the seventh level.

When Xie Yanke has mastered the "Green Needle Clear Palm" to perfection, his "Nine Heavens Divine Art" will also be perfected.

"not to mention……"

Chu Yuan sensed a small ball of innate true qi in the middle dantian, the crimson palace.

After he practiced the "Nine Heavens Divine Art" to the sixth meridian, he had innate true qi in the red palace in his middle dantian.

Now you can use another unique skill called "Nine Heavens Gangqi".

"Chu boy, your martial arts skills have reached perfection now. Even I am weaker than you. Do you still want to stay on the Motian Cliff?"

Xie Yanke asked Chu Yuan.

He was afraid that Chu Yuan would choose to leave after his martial arts became perfect, leaving behind a bastard who would never beg him for mercy even if he was beaten to death.

Then it would be a long time before he could fulfill his promise to take back the Black Iron Order.

"I've lived in the mountains for so long, I'm used to it, so I'll just stay in the mountains for now..."

Chu Yuan thought about it and said.

"However, I am going to go down the mountain to see what is happening in the martial arts world and the Jianghu."

Chu Yuan then continued.

According to the year number, this world should be several decades after the "Swordsman" world. Chu Yuan wants to go to the martial arts world to check whether this world is the continuation of the "Swordsman" world.

Just like in the previous world, there were clues of the world of Yitian.

"With your martial arts skills, although the world is big, it is enough for you to roam freely."

Hearing that Chu Yuan had no intention of leaving Motian Cliff completely, Xie Yanke breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "When will you go down the mountain?"

Xie Yanke asked Chu Yuan again.

"Let's go in two days!"

Chu Yuan said.

"The people's hearts are complicated down there. Although martial arts skills can deter villains, it doesn't mean you can dominate the world with just martial arts skills. People's hearts are unpredictable. You need to be careful and watch out for others after you go down the mountain."

Xie Yanke thought about it and instructed Chu Yuan.

His methods are both good and evil. He is neither a hero nor a great master of magic in the martial arts world.

He can barely be considered a hero!
He had been with Chu Yuan for two years and had a certain affection for him, so he reminded Chu Yuan.

"Don't worry, Mr. Xie, I know."

Chu Yuan smiled.

"I'm not concerned about you, I'm just reminding you."

Xie Yanke felt that he had said too much, so he quickly tried to make amends.

Chu Yuan smiled when he heard this, but said nothing.

……

late at night.

There are thick clouds in the sky tonight. Neither the bright moon nor the stars can be seen. It is pitch black outside.

There was an oil lamp lit in the cave, and the light flickered depending on the wick.

The bastard was lying on the bed and asked Chu Yuan:

"Brother Chu, are you going down the mountain tomorrow?"

After two years of living there, the originally empty cave was now equipped with almost all the necessary furniture, including tables, chairs, desks, beds, and cabinets.

Almost all of them were purchased slowly by Chu Yuan and Gou Zazhong over the past two years.

"good."

Chu Yuan nodded from another bed not far away.

"In the blink of an eye, we have been on the mountain for two years. I really envy you, Brother Chu. You have such a good aptitude for martial arts training. It's only been two years, and even Mr. Xie is no match for you."

The bastard sighed.

He thought of the scene where Xie Yanke was defeated by Chu Yuan a few days ago.

Chu Yuan: ...

"In terms of qualifications and talent, who can compare with you, Brother Gou!"

Chu Yuan complained in his heart.

In terms of qualifications, Brother Gou is definitely the strongest protagonist in Mr. Jin’s book!

none of them!

Some people even think that after Dog Brother mastered the "Tai Xuan Jing" in the later period, he began to practice Taoism.

However, Chu Yuan felt that this was probably a false rumor.

The ones who truly practice immortal cultivation should be the three free and easy elders and the sweeping monk in the Tianlong world.

"Brother Gou, don't worry. When we get down the mountain this time, I will help you find your mother if I have time."

Chu Yuan thought for a moment and said to the bastard.

In fact, there is no need to look for it, he even knows the whole story of Gou Ge's life experience.

"Thank you, Brother Chu."

Hearing Chu Yuan's words, the bastard expressed gratitude.

But Chu Yuan could tell that he was no longer so eager to find his mother.

In Chu Yuan's opinion, the mongrel is not stupid, it is just ignorant of the ways of the world.

He can feel who is good to him and who is bad.

Even though Mei Fanggu had beaten and scolded him before and hated him very much, he still wanted to find her, just because she was his only relative.

……

The next day.

Early in the morning.

The morning dew had not yet dried, and in the early morning sunshine, Chu Yuan prepared to go down the mountain.

Gou Zazhong and Xie Yanke saw Chu Yuan off on the Motian Cliff.

"Brother Chu, this is the dry food I prepared for you. You can eat it on the way."

The bastard handed a bulging bag to Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan took it and felt that the bag was heavy.

Chu Yuan looked at Gou Ge and had to admit that Gou Ge really had the qualities to be a good wife and mother.

I can cook and prepare dry food.

No wonder he attracted so many women to like him later!

"Thanks."

Chu Yuan hung the bag on his back shoulder.

"I don't have anything to prepare for you. This is your first time down the mountain, and you don't have a suitable weapon. When I went down the mountain with the bastard a few days ago, I went to the blacksmith shop in the town and made a weapon for you."

Xie Yanke threw a dark iron sword to Chu Yuan, even the scabbard was black.

Chu Yuan didn't take it and threw the iron sword to the bastard.

"Thank you very much for your kindness, old man."

Chu Yuan first thanked Xie Yanke.

Then he said to the mongrel, "But I already have a weapon, so you should give this sword to Brother Gou, and let him take it with him when he goes down the mountain."

"You have a weapon, how come I don't know?"

Hearing Chu Yuan's words, Xie Yanke looked a little surprised.

“Isn’t this in my hand?”

Chu Yuan said to Xie Yanke.

As he spoke, he raised the bamboo stick in his hand!

The bamboo stick is still the same one he used two years ago. In the past two years, he usually uses the bamboo stick instead of the long sword when practicing sword.

Two years had passed, and he was more familiar with this bamboo stick than any other weapon.

So he decided to use the bamboo stick in his hand as his weapon.

"You want to use a bamboo stick as your weapon?"

Hearing Chu Yuan's words, Xie Yanke looked at Chu Yuan with surprise.

"Didn't Mr. Xie say that flying flowers and plucked leaves can hurt people? Have you heard of another saying that grass, wood, bamboo, and stone can all be used as swords?"

Chu Yuan waved the bamboo stick in his hand twice.

The bamboo stick should have produced a sound of breaking through the air when it was in a fast state, but in Chu Yuan's hand, it actually produced the sound of a sword ringing.

"Haha, grass, wood, bamboo, and stone can all be used as swords?"

Hearing Chu Yuan's words, Xie Yanke burst into laughter.

"Brother Chu, if your swordsmanship has really reached the level where grass, wood, bamboo, and stone can all become swords, then your swordsmanship is probably no longer that of an ordinary person, but a sword of a god!"

Xie Yanke said from the side.

But he thought about it and realized that two years ago, Chu Yuan was already able to use a bamboo stick as a sword and defeat more than a dozen disciples of the Snow Mountain Sword Sect, including Bai Wanren. Now, two years have passed, who knows what level his swordsmanship has reached!

Maybe grass, trees, bamboo and stones can all be turned into swords. He can really do it!
Chu Yuan smiled slightly when he heard this!
After the Huashan Sword Contest in the previous world, he had already broken through and entered the swordless realm.

The so-called no sword!
There is no sword in your hand, but there is a sword in your heart.

However, the swordless state does not mean that you are suddenly without a sword in your hand.

Using this bamboo stick as a sword is just the right transition opportunity.

"Farewell!"

Chu Yuan waved to Xie Yanke and Gou Zazhong and left Motian Cliff.

He couldn't bear to see separation, and he was only going down the mountain temporarily, not that he wouldn't come back, so there was no need to be so sad.

"Mr. Xie, do you think Brother Chu will be safe when he goes down the mountain this time?"

Watching Chu Yuan's back gradually disappear, Gou Zazhong, holding the iron sword in both hands, asked Xie Yanke beside him.

"Danger? What kind of danger is that? With your martial arts skills, Brother Chu? It's good enough if others are not in danger!"

Xie Yanke said to the bastard.

"Right."

The bastard lowered his head and thought for a moment.

At this moment, the bastard suddenly thought, why today was different from the past, he didn't hear Ah Huang's familiar barking!

"Mr. Xie, Ah Huang is missing!"

The bastard said with a panicked look.

Who knew that Xie Yanke looked very calm. He said to the bastard, "Just now I saw Ah Huang following Chu and going down the mountain together!"

The mongrel was confused and said, "What should I do? What if Huang doesn't come back?

"Dogs are loyal. Ah Huang might just be going down the mountain to see Chu off."

Xie Yanke said.

"Too."

The bastard thought about it and said.

"Even if Ah Huang doesn't come back, it's good to follow Chu to the martial arts world. After all, there is no one familiar with him down the mountain. If Chu has a dog to accompany him, he won't be too lonely on this trip."

Xie Yanke said to the bastard again.

"Yes, Mr. Xie is very thoughtful."

The bastard nodded.

“With Chu’s martial arts, he will definitely become famous in the martial arts world when he goes down the mountain this time!”

Xie Yanke turned around and looked at Chu Yuan's departing back down the mountain.
