Chapter 108: Nine Yin White Bone Claw!
It's clear that Feng Lingkai also has a certain degree of apprehension towards Xia Xingxiao's strength. The intense battle earlier has fully demonstrated that this guy wearing the second-class soldier badge is absolutely abnormal. Earlier, five of them were unable to take down Xia Xingxiao, let alone now when he's the only one left. However, for the sake of the army's honor, he must make a move. Even if it means knowing he can't win, he must show his attitude.
"Boom!"
Xia Xingxiao's first move was a powerful Golden Strength Fist, with four times the force, fiercely smashing towards his opponent. He mobilized all of his true energy and the Star Power of the five sandworm larvae. Once he started his rampage, he didn't care about any consequences. What Bird Lieutenant? I'll punch you to death and then we can talk! Even if I couldn't kill you, at least I'd cripple you!
As for his two avatars, they were even more ruthless. Because the avatars themselves were condensed true energy, they mobilized their true energy, and didn't even need to use their meridians or dantian. They were true energy incarnate. All they needed to do was stir up their true energy, and directly strike Feng Lingkai's face. If Feng Lingkai's reaction was just a little slow, what awaited him would be tons of force in continuous heavy blows.
Feng Lingkai's true strength actually lies between a 6th-level cultivator and a 7th-level cultivator. The explosive power of a 6th-level cultivator is, of course, much stronger than Xia Xingxiao, this second-rate soldier. An ordinary 6th-level cultivator already has an explosive power exceeding ten tons. If they are close to being a 7th-level cultivator, their explosive power is even closer to twenty tons. This is a very large number.
Such a powerful force. It must be beyond Xia Xingxiao's reach. Even if he uses his strongest technique, it would only have a power of about five tons. However, Feng Lingkai's defensive ability is not necessarily stronger than Xia Xingxiao's. While attacking Xia Xingxiao, he must constantly pay attention to whether he will be hit or not. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been repelled by Xia Xingxiao just now.
Five tons of force hit Feng Lingkai's body, and twenty tons of force hit Xia Xinxiao's body. The consequences are almost the same. In fact, relying on Xia Xinxiao's own abnormal defense system, even if the twenty tons of force really hit him, it wouldn't be a big problem. Moreover, Feng Lingkai didn't have any chance to hit him at all.
Xia Xingxiao's flight technique was absolutely not something to be covered up. It was his basic survival skill. Relying on the intense burning of his true energy, he could make it impossible for Feng Lingkai to even catch a glimpse of his shadow. Feng Lingkai's own flight technique couldn't compare to Xia Xingxiao's at all.
No matter how strong the force is, it can only be effective when it hits the opponent's body. Otherwise, it's just hitting the air, and there's no use at all. But unfortunately, Xia Xingxiao's true self was too fast, and Feng Lingkai didn't even have a chance to hit him.
As for Xia Xingxiao's two avatars, they can indeed be hit. The problem is that the avatars are just condensed true energy and do not have a life of their own. Even if they are continuously hit, it will only consume some true energy, without any impact whatsoever. On the contrary, if one's attention is drawn to the avatars, once the main body launches a sneak attack, the consequences would be even more severe.
To be honest, if there was a choice, Feng Lingkai would not have made a move. Now, the two of them are fighting again, and Feng Lingkai is actually in a bit of a predicament. As a result, after exchanging blows for a while, Feng Lingkai was completely at a disadvantage. In front of Xia Xingxiao's two clones, he could only defend himself and had no power to counterattack. Fortunately, Xia Xingxiao's true body was hiding on the side watching the excitement. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have the strength to defend himself.
At this time, someone else joined the battle group. Xia Xingxiao and his team had gradually moved away from the volcanic crater. This was a ravine, with uneven rocks everywhere, and no one knew what kind of danger was hidden behind the rocks. The person who suddenly joined the battle group was jumping out from behind the rocks.
His military rank is quite high, and it's a lieutenant colonel. The armband he wears is also from the 114th Division. Such a rank, even in the 114th Division, would be considered a senior officer. Because the division commander of the 114th Division, Lu Feiyun, only holds the rank of major general. Their search and rescue team actually has a lieutenant colonel as an assistant, which feels off no matter how you look at it.
Is it possible that there are some big shots among the people who need to be rescued? Otherwise, how could the 114th Division possibly send a lieutenant colonel to lead the search and rescue team in person? But they didn't receive any relevant information! If there really were big shots who fell, logically speaking, the 114th Division should have asked the Myanmar Luo military base for assistance in the search and rescue.
It must be known that, from the perspective of a cultivator, the 114th division's cultivators and the Muye military base are fundamentally incomparable. Perhaps in space, the mechanized troops still have some use. However, on the surface of Aiyue Star, it is completely the domain of cultivators. Not asking for the assistance of cultivators will only result in wasting time and opportunities.
Taking advantage of the gap in the battle, Xia Xingxiao saw the opponent's name clearly: Zhou Ranliu.
Zhou Rangliu's strength is probably around the 7th level of cultivation. Unlike Feng Lingkai, he not only has a strong physical power but also seems to have some research in speed. His fighting style is completely different from Feng Lingkai's. Xia Xingxiao's clones made several moves, but surprisingly didn't hit him. On the other hand, his opponent's attacks hit his clones several times.
At the same time, Zhou Ran's hands also emitted a cold and gloomy aura. This cold and gloomy aura posed a potential threat to Xia Xingxiao's clone. Because the clone was formed by condensed aura, if it were surrounded by this cold and gloomy aura, it might be frozen. The consequence of being frozen would be a decrease in speed, a significant loss of agility, and ultimately an impact on combat effectiveness.
It's been a long time since Xia Xingxiao had an opponent as challenging as this. Obviously, Zhou Rangliu was not an ordinary cultivator. His cold and gloomy true energy posed a great threat to most cultivators. Moreover, his level was very high, with extremely high compression of his true energy, making Xia Xingxiao feel somewhat apprehensive every time he made a move.
The main reason for Xia Xingxiao's hesitation was that he didn't dare to take action. Because, he worried that he would also be frozen. After all, the gap between their levels was there, and it wasn't something that could be easily made up for. If he were really frozen by Zhou Ranliu, his combat strength would inevitably be greatly affected. With the hatred between them, if he lost, his life would definitely be in danger.
Fortunately, he also had a lot of masculine true energy in his body, which could dissolve the opponent's yin cold true energy in time. However, the amount of true energy that needed to be consumed was indeed a bit too much. Zhou Ranliu's true energy compression degree was extremely high, and one move contained almost as much energy as several of his dantian's true energy. If it weren't for the star power provided by the five sandworm larvae, Xia Xingxiao really didn't dare to continue fighting with the opponent.
After a brief battle, Xia Xingxiao finally saw it. This Zhou Rangliu's martial arts was actually from the Nine Yin Scripture. No wonder his true energy was so cold and gloomy, no wonder his speed wasn't bad either. It turned out he was cultivating the Nine Yin Scripture!
As one of the five great mysterious books in the Starry Sky World, the Nine Yin Manual is the only one that faces all cultivators around the world without any reservations. However, due to the vast content contained within the Nine Yin Manual, ordinary cultivators who wish to stand out will find it not so easy after all. This Zhou Ruo's attainments in the Nine Yin Manual are quite impressive!
Li Yuzi looked on, suddenly furrowing his brow and shouting in a shrill voice: "Xia Xingxiao, be careful! He's using the Nine Yin White Bone Claw! This guy knows the Nine Yin White Bone Claw!"
Zhou Ran flowed with a haha laugh, and said with a gloomy smile: "That's right, it is the Nine Yin White Bone Claw! However, you know too late! Little boy, wait obediently for your death!"
Xia Xing Xiao sneered and responded with disdain: "Jiuyin Baigutou? Is that supposed to be impressive?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his wrist flipped over and he also launched a Nine Yin White Bone Claw at the opponent's forehead.
Zhou Rang was slightly startled, unexpectedly, Xia Xingxiao also understood this. Moreover, it seemed that his proficiency was even higher than Zhou's. Due to Xia Xingxiao's fast speed, Zhou couldn't see the details of his moves clearly. For a moment, he involuntarily felt suspicious, thinking that he had seen an illusion and misjudged.
It must be known that primary practitioners generally can only cultivate one internal skill, paired with one or two sets of fist and foot techniques. If there are more, the meridians will definitely not be enough. In fact, regardless of the level of practitioner, the most distressing thing is that the number of meridians is not enough.
The Nine Yin Manual is a comprehensive and all-encompassing work, covering everything from internal skills to fist and foot techniques. Therefore, one can spend their entire life studying just this one manual. Apart from the Nine Yin Manual, there is no time, energy or surplus meridians to practice other martial arts.
For example, Zhou Ruo's own cultivation is the Nine Yin True Classics combined with the Nine Yin White Bone Claw. This is a relatively ruthless kung fu. The speed of cultivation is not very fast, but the combat power is very strong. The Nine Yin White Bone Claw is known as invincible, and this is absolutely no joke. Are Sha Xing's claws fierce? In front of the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, it's also just a small dish.
In those years, Mei Chao Feng only learned some superficial skills and was already so formidable. If he had really mastered the Nine Yin True Classics and the Nine Yin White Bone Claw in the Starry Sky World, there would hardly be a few opponents left. However, wanting to cultivate the Nine Yin White Bone Claw to a high level is not an easy task, talent, hard work, and luck are all indispensable.
"Hiss!"
"Hiss!"
The two claws moved at an extremely fast speed, producing a sharp and piercing sound that shattered the air.
Jiuyin Baiguzhao, apart from being able to grab the vital parts of the target with every move, has another very notable characteristic, which is the true energy contained within the claws, extremely sharp. After all, human fingers have limited strength. Without a particularly strong true energy leading the way, it's impossible to tear through fine steel. The stronger the true energy, the greater the destructive power of the fingers.
