Chapter 529: Chapter 324: Breakthrough in Battle, Successful Opening of the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian (Part 2)

He raised his hand to counterattack, but in the next moment, he heard a crisp sound as the Judge’s Pen snapped in half, and then he saw his own back.

What happened?

This was his last thought before he fell into endless darkness.

The head and the headless body fell to the ground simultaneously, blood splattering everywhere.

With one move!

With just one move, Zhao Ya had decapitated this accountant.

This scene made Zheng Dalei shudder involuntarily.

He suddenly realized he might have mistaken an important fact.

Before this, he had always thought that Shen Yunshen was the main force sent by the Azure Dragon Temple this time.

As for Zhao Ya, he was merely tagging along for some fame, without much skill.

But who would have expected that this disciple of the Azure Dragon Temple would be so fierce.

Not only did he retreat completely unharmed under a joint attack, but he also killed his capable lieutenant with one slash.

Feeling heartache mixed with shock, Zheng Dalei momentarily blanked out.

And it was at this moment that Zhao Ya had already charged over, delivering another slash.

At present, Zhao Ya’s saber technique had reached the Transformation Realm.

A slash that looked simple was actually infinitely profound.

At least Zheng Dalei felt that under this slash, all his escape routes had been sealed.

Neither retreating nor advancing was an option.

Despite this, Zheng Dalei, although shocked, remained calm, suddenly raised both hands, and then exploded with powerful True Power.

Boom!

Then innumerable True Power, seemingly like mist, spread out, layer upon layer appeared before the Cold Iron Saber, continuously eroding its descending force.

Zhao Ya felt as if his slash had sunk into glue, the momentum rapidly diminishing.

Not only that, this mist-like True Power continued to climb up along the Cold Iron Saber, swiftly infiltrating when it touched his palm, then drilling persistently deeper into Zhao Ya’s body.

Zhao Ya raised his eyebrows slightly.

This was the first time he encountered such a nature of True Power.

It was like a deadly poison, corroding everything in sight.

Upon perceiving that his True Power had successfully invaded Zhao Ya’s body, Zheng Dalei couldn’t help being overjoyed.

For him, his greatest reliance was this Pure Power refined by the Poison Scripture.

Its poisonousness was so fierce and bizarre that it exceeded human imagination.

As long as it could successfully enter a person’s body, unless the opponent’s Realm was far superior, the end result would be that they would be controlled and finally poisoned to collapse.

If not for the nature of this True Power requiring actual contact to infiltrate the body, as well as the great mental effort it consumed,

just relying on this move, Zheng Dalei would be enough to rank among the top masters Beyond the World.

Now that his True Power had already infiltrated Zhao Ya’s body, all he needed to do was erode his Qi Blood, then no matter how capable Zhao Ya was, he had to concede.

Zheng Dalei was naturally very pleased.

But this pleasure lasted only for a moment, for he soon discovered with horror that his connection with the True Power infiltrated into Zhao Ya’s body had been severed.

Could it be that Zhao Ya’s strength and Realm far surpassed his own?

But how was this possible?

While Zheng Dalei was still in a daze, he saw Zhao Ya give him a slight smile.

"To actually use poison to enter the Dao, you must have tried hard."

"Unfortunately, these have no effect on me."

With that, Zhao Ya drew his saber, threw a punch, aiming straight for Zheng Dalei’s face.

Zheng Dalei retreated hastily, his expression flickering uncertainly as he stared at Zhao Ya, already considering retreat in his heart.

There was no other way.

This guy was really too hard to fight.

Up until now, Zheng Dalei couldn’t understand why Zhao Ya was immune to his True Power’s invasion.

But how could he know, for Zhao Ya, who possessed the talent of being Immune to Hundred Poisons, his bit of True Power barely occupied a small space between Zhao Ya’s teeth.

Even after dispelling the toxicity of this True Power, Zhao Ya’s liver happily devoured it.

At this moment, the Qi Blood within Zhao Ya’s body was extremely active, the sea of blood stored in his liver was also stimulated to activity by the sudden influx of external True Power.

Not only that, but the Star-devouring True Power in Zhao Ya’s Dantian also seemed to be stimulated, swiftly operating in the Ren and Du Meridians.

Zhao Ya, as if by an intuitive flash of insight, guided it slightly.

Then the surging Star-devouring True Power surged into the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian, enhanced by the various acupoints along the way, heading straight for the final remaining Yujie and Shaoshang Acupoints.

The Yujie Acupoint broke through without even struggling.

But upon reaching the Shaoshang Acupoint, the Star-devouring True Power, which was initially vigorous, encountered an obstacle.

This Shaoshang Acupoint was the last and crucial acupoint of the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian.

Breaking through it would mean the thorough opening of this meridian. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

But because of this, the obstacle at this acupoint was extraordinarily formidable.

In fact, the opening of all meridians was like this, the hardest part was often the last acupoint.

At this moment, several attempts by the Star-devouring True Power met with no success.

The hard-earned perfect opportunity seemed to be slipping away.

Zhao Ya took a deep breath, suddenly mobilizing the Azure Dragon True Power that had been lying dormant in the Dantian, combining it with the Star-devouring True Power, and then charging towards the Shaoshang Acupoint.

These changes occurring within Zhao Ya’s body were naturally unknown to the external world.

But Zheng Dalei, who had been planning to escape, suddenly saw Zhao Ya standing there, his face reddening one moment and whitening the next, and his expression becoming somewhat confused, and couldn’t help rejoicing in his heart.

Damn, I thought my True Power had no effect on you.

So you were just holding on!

How’s it now, convinced yet!

Zheng Dalei thought Zhao Ya’s sudden stiffness was because the Poison Scripture True Power that infiltrated him had finally taken effect.

Now he had no intention of fleeing.

Instead of fleeing, Zheng Dalei let out a sinister laugh and charged at Zhao Ya.

"Prepare to die!"

Mid-air, Zheng Dalei unleashed a punch aimed straight at Zhao Ya’s face.

This punch, thrown in anger, carried immense power, and if it connected, not just a human, even a steel ingot would be blasted apart.

Just as the fist was about to reach him, Zhao Ya’s body suddenly shuddered slightly.

At the very moment Zheng Dalei launched his furious attack, under the combined force of the Azure Dragon True Power and Star-devouring True Power, the incredibly resilient Shaoshang Acupoint finally broke open.

In an instant, the True Power within the Dantian, the Ren and Du Meridians, and the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian all became one.

Zhao Ya felt his Qi Blood soar instantly, the strength in his arms climbing rapidly, and a sense of unspeakable comfort spreading throughout his body.

Zhao Ya even had the illusion that he could knock down a mountain with a single punch right now.

So when Zheng Dalei’s fist came crashing down, Zhao Ya didn’t even look at it. With a gentle raise of his left hand, he effortlessly blocked the punch without a trace of fireworks.

With a booming sound.

Zheng Dalei felt as if his fist had struck an indestructible mountain, the massive recoil causing his whole body to tremble, and he was about to be flung backward.

But how could Zhao Ya give him such an opportunity, his left hand suddenly clenched, grabbing Zheng Dalei’s fist firmly, then pulling it back.

Zheng Dalei let out a cry of surprise, and Zhao Ya forcibly pulled him back.

But the very next moment, those cries of surprise turned into pitiful screams.

It turned out that Zhao Ya’s left hand had suddenly exerted force.

Accompanied by a series of crisp pops, like beans being crushed, Zheng Dalei’s fist, like dough, was crushed into pieces by Zhao Ya.

When Zhao Ya released his hand, Zheng Dalei half-knelt on the ground, his face pale, clutching his injured hand, his body trembling uncontrollably.

This was not just because of the pain of the ruined arm, but more importantly, it was due to the overpowering aura emanating from Zhao Ya.

Though Zhao Ya had merely blocked a punch and then squeezed lightly with his hand,

the supreme True Power contained within this so deeply shook Zheng Dalei that it crushed any will to resist.

He knew he had lost.

Lost utterly.

Earlier, this young man standing there, was not poisoned by his True Power at all.

He was clearly in a breakthrough!

Thinking of this, Zheng Dalei felt even more terror and regret.

Terrified by Zhao Ya’s strength and talent.

What sort of person dares to open a meridian while battling someone?

How immense must one’s courage and confidence be?

Regretting having provoked him.

But now it was too late to say anything.

Zheng Dalei looked up at Zhao Ya, his lips trembling a bit, finally saying slowly.

"I concede."
