Seeking Martial Dao in All Reborn Lives

Chapter 189: Chapter 185: Attack and Defense

The Primordial Dragon Secret Technique, foremost of all Secret Techniques in the world!

Dozens of Secret Techniques stacked and perfectly fused together. It was impossible to imagine the degree to which it would amplify one’s Physical Ability!

Twenty-five of them!

At this moment, a full twenty-five Wandering Dragons circled Zhao Yuan, letting out a chorus of roars. A terrifying aura shot into the sky, and Zhao Xuanqi’s Qilin’s Intent actually showed faint signs of being suppressed.

As their auras intertwined, the starlight within the courtyard trembled. A rainbow-hued light gradually manifested, turning their auras from illusory to real, making them visible to the naked eye.

BZZZMM!!

But at that moment, the starlight throughout the entire courtyard—or at least half of it—suddenly surged for no reason, covering the area like a dome of light and dispersing the manifested rainbow glow.

This was the work of the Three Elders, who were secretly manipulating the Heaven-Locking Array within the courtyard. If they allowed the two auras to continue clashing and spreading, their power would be sensed for miles, even in the dead of night.

SWOOSH!!

At that instant, both men moved at once.

Zhao Yuan took a step, and the Wandering Dragons around him shot forward. His figure was ethereal, as if floating on air, yet his graceful movements held a lethal threat.

On the other side, the moment Zhao Xuanqi stepped forward, his body transformed once again.

’In my normal state, it’s hard to contend with Zhao Yuan. Even I have to admit that the top Secret Transmission in this world’s Martial History is no less powerful than my Hundred Beasts Fist!’

Secret Technique stacking!!

First Gate of the Dragon Gate! Profound Water Yin Sha!

And... the Five Slaughter Secret Technique!!

The so-called Five Slaughter Secret Technique was, in fact, the Five Internal Organ Secret Skills, which could be used with relative safety after one achieved the state of Five Evils Turned into Fortune!

Before reaching the realm of Five Evils Turned into Fortune, fully unleashing the function of a single organ already exceeded the endurance of the rest of the body. To then stimulate it further with a Secret Technique would cause immeasurable harm.

But after achieving Five Evils Turned into Fortune, things were different. The Evil Qi of the five organs counteracted one another, allowing their functions to be fully expressed. At that point, stimulating them with a Secret Technique could push their capabilities to an unbelievable level!

However, when it came to Secret Techniques, the Hundred Beasts Fist was ultimately not as powerful as the Primordial Dragon Secret Technique. It could not be used without causing self-inflicted harm. Under the stimulation of the Secret Technique—

The Celestial Fire Evil of the heart!

His heart pounded, and his Qi and Blood instantly began to boil. His body temperature rose to a terrifying degree. The pores on his palms opened and closed, his bodily fluids evaporating into a cloud of mist that coiled around his fingertips, resembling a white bird’s beak.

His aura transformed. Amidst a sea of fire, mist billowed, and a strange, one-legged bird soared through the sky.

The Bi Fang!!

SWISH SWISH SWISH!!

He spread his arms like wings. Wherever they passed, the air and mist were manipulated and compressed by his Fist Technique, forming winding, thread-like lines in the air. Yet, no one would doubt the terrifying sharpness contained within them—they could slice a boulder in two in an instant!

Zhao Yuan’s hands, like dragon claws, shot out. Various types of Force stacked and vibrated in his palms, actually forming a one-inch thick, tangible Qi Shield around them. They were nearly identical to real dragon claws as he abruptly grabbed for Zhao Xuanqi’s incoming Hand Blade.

The Gang Qi had condensed into a physical form, turning the illusory into reality!

The Blade Qi from the Bi Fang’s Form was actually nullified by the Dragon Claw Gang Qi. Zhao Yuan’s hand firmly seized Zhao Xuanqi’s, completely unharmed.

His technique was broken, his hand captured. Zhao Xuanqi was instantly at a disadvantage.

However, his expression remained unchanged. He jerked his hand back, his bones and muscles twisting in an unbelievable way, as if they had instantly deconstructed into flowing water. He violently broke free from the grasp of Zhao Yuan’s dragon claw. At the same time, he spun around, generating power from his waist and abdomen in a way that defied common sense, completely bypassing the wind-up time for an attack. His Qi and Blood erupted, the sounds of multiple types of Force Release overlapping as he simultaneously activated the Secret Technique of his liver.

The Yin Wood Evil of the liver!

Yin Wood fueled fire, making the flames even more ferocious.

Within a matter of inches, aided by the unnaturally modified body granted by the Hundred Beasts Fist, Zhao Xuanqi unleashed a powerful Inch Force!

CLANG!!

The sound was like a striking firing pin; over a short distance, it was like a gunpowder explosion.

In a flash, he had seized the initiative once more!

Zhao Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly. He hadn’t expected Zhao Xuanqi’s body to be capable of such a counter-intuitive maneuver.

BANG! BANG!!

Two muffled bangs sounded in quick succession as two more Wandering Dragons formed around him. He had stacked another two Secret Techniques. The instantaneous boost to his Physical Ability allowed him to overcome the momentary stiffness following his Force Release and react in a split second.

One of his arms moved like a Wandering Dragon. Wherever its Force went, the surrounding Gang Qi parted as if for its master. It was as if his arm possessed some kind of Magic Power.

The Water Separation Technique!

By negating the influence of the almost-solid Gang Qi, Zhao Yuan’s dragon claw once again slipped into the path of Zhao Xuanqi’s attack. This time, his target was the pressure point on Zhao Xuanqi’s wrist!

Soft Overcomes Firm!

Zhao Xuanqi’s technique was broken once again!

GURGLE!!

The next moment, Zhao Xuanqi’s lungs suddenly trembled. The primary focus of the Secret Technique erupting through his body shifted, changing from Heart Fire to Lung Metal.

The Third Evil! The Geng Metal Evil of the lungs!!

BANG!

His arm and fist, just as Zhao Yuan’s dragon claw was about to pinch the nerve, abruptly swelled. They became like a giant war hammer, or the arm of a colossal ape.

The Exotic Beast Form, the Vermilion Ape!

The Vermilion Ape: white-headed and red-footed. Its appearance foretells great wars.

The Hundred Beasts Fist’s Vermilion Ape Form, fused with the Military School’s Battlefield Hammer Technique, was perfectly in tune with the Geng Metal Qi!

With the Geng Metal Evil as the primary force, supplemented by the Celestial Fire and Yin Wood Fiends, a terrifying Shock Force erupted.

DOOONG!!

A metallic, resonant boom like a great gong echoed out. This was the terrifying sound produced by flesh vibrating the air after the Inch Force exploded, causing a powerful shockwave!

When Geng Metal resounds, a graze means injury, and a touch means death!

His hand, now a hammer, pressed down, actively colliding with Zhao Yuan’s dragon claw!

Zhao Yuan released force through his dragon claw, his fingers clamping down hard. However, the instant he made contact with Zhao Xuanqi’s body, an intense vibration was magnified through that slight touch and exploded in his senses.

His entire hand went numb in an instant, making it difficult to move.

However, Zhao Yuan was no ordinary fighter. His claw’s force penetrated through the vibration, and he still managed to press down on Zhao Xuanqi’s pressure point, restricting his opponent’s ability to generate power.

In that instant, both men temporarily lost the ability to generate power in one of their hands!

BANG! BANG! BANG!!

A rapid series of thuds echoed from within Zhao Yuan’s body as three more Wandering Dragons abruptly appeared.

Thirty Secret Techniques!!

His body suddenly spun, and his other arm struck out toward Zhao Xuanqi.

ROAR!!

A dragon’s roar resounded as his Gang Qi condensed, becoming as solid as matter itself!!

The fourth Evil! The Black Earth Fiend of the spleen!!

Instantly, Zhao Xuanqi’s spleen activated, consuming nearly a fifth of his body’s nutrients in a flash. He didn’t switch his Fist Technique; instead, he channeled the Vermilion Ape’s Shock Force throughout his entire body. His five organs and six viscera, tempered by the Black Tortoise Gangsha, were able to withstand such a terrifying, vibrating Force Release without sustaining damage!

One step! One push!

Zhao Xuanqi’s time to release his force was a fraction shorter than Zhao Yuan’s!!

Before Zhao Yuan could fully release the power of his technique, Zhao Xuanqi’s body was already right in front of him.

He was forced to abruptly retract his Force Release, switching from attack to defense. He pressed his body against Zhao Xuanqi’s, using the terrifying force of his opponent’s charge to leap gracefully away, landing more than ten meters back.

In a split second, they had exchanged multiple blows. The rapid transitions between attack and defense were absolutely brilliant!

Zhao Yuan’s expression shifted slightly. Just as he was about to attack again, a booming laugh came from behind him. "Zhao Yuan, using more than thirty Secret Techniques will injure your body. Let me take over from here!!"
