Return to the City: The Strongest King-Chapter 1780 - 1713: Supreme Expert (Part 2)
Chapter 1780 -1713: Supreme Expert (Part 2)
Those who haven’t cultivated Four Meridians True Qi, when using dual techniques, their power will be dispersed. Once they cultivate Four Meridians True Qi, they can unleash two fully powered moves in an instant under the propulsion of True Qi.
Just now, as Liu Bai executed a kick, he deceptively performed an elbow strike simultaneously. Relying on his sensory ability, Song Xiaodong could sense Liu Bai’s body tensed like a piece of iron, yet he didn’t expect that this seemingly ordinary move actually concealed another.
Liu Bai holds a high status in the Dark Night Sect, has been cultivating since childhood, and attained Four Meridians True Qi at a young age. He has practiced combat in the military, traveled to study various fighting techniques, and possesses decades of combat experience and advanced combat concepts. What makes him even more remarkable is Liu Bai’s bold exploration of the coordination between True Qi and combat, fully utilizing the advantage of dual techniques with one move overt and one covert, where the covert strike is fully powered, and the overt move is by no means a mere feint.
Song Xiaodong, Sun Yiyi, and Chu Xianling were somewhat shocked, as even though there’s only a one True Qi difference between Three Meridians True Qi and Four Meridians True Qi, the disparity in power is truly despair inducing.
This is not only a gap in the number of True Qi and the strength of power, but also in movement skills and combat concepts. Before today, Song Xiaodong had never thought that a person could exert force to deliver two moves simultaneously.
Because in combat, the most important thing is to concentrate power into one. Traditional martial arts have various training methods like horse stance, Iron Plank Bridge, and large staff wielding, all to train the waist’s strength, concentrating the body’s power through the waist.
However, Liu Bai’s fighting style clearly defies the traditional martial arts viewpoints and modern martial arts skills ideology.
Chapter 1714: Surprise Intervention
Liu Bai was determined to get Song Xiaodong. When one move failed, he immediately stepped forward, exchanged several moves with Song Xiaodong, using both hands and feet simultaneously. Song Xiaodong could block one move but not the other; his True Qi gradually became insufficient, his hands and feet weakened, and his breath became rapid.
Seeing this, Sun Yiyi and Chu Xianling quickly changed formation, the three stood in a line, with Chu Xianling and Sun Yiyi standing by Song Xiaodong’s side, ready to attack.
“Sect Leader Song, why struggle? With two beauties accompanying you on your way, what regrets could you have?”
Upon finishing the words, Liu Bai threw a punch directly at Song Xiaodong, simultaneously sweeping his leg toward Chu Xianling. Song Xiaodong reached out to catch it, being shaken back a few steps, his face pale, his chest heaving. Chu Xianling also raised a leg to block but was also forced back, and Sun Yiyi seized the opportunity to punch, not expecting Liu Bai to withdraw his moves with ease, bouncing back like a frog, making Sun Yiyi’s punch miss.
Even though three people worked together, Liu Bai, despite having only two hands and two feet, seemed to fight like two people, and the three couldn’t suppress him.
“Sect Leader Song underestimated me, thinking that the collaboration of three people could defeat me?” Liu Bai still appeared relaxed and at ease.
Song Xiaodong couldn’t help but be a bit shocked, as Liu Bai instantly saw through Song Xiaodong’s plan.
Unwilling to waste time, Liu Bai decisively chose to win by force, subscribing to the notion that overpowering strength could overcome many skills. He started to focus on targeting only Song Xiaodong, seizing the opportunity to suddenly unleash full force when Song Xiaodong could neither dodge nor block, deploying Four Meridians True Qi all at once to punch at Song Xiaodong, who was left with no choice but to use his elbow to block.
“Boom!” Liu Bai unleashed all his strength, knowing full well he couldn’t strike at Song Xiaodong’s vital points, nor did he expect this move to kill Song Xiaodong directly. He merely hoped it would knock Song Xiaodong back, giving him the chance to break out of the Three Talents Formation and attack Song Xiaodong without the protection of the other two.
Liu Bai’s punch was immensely powerful, sending Song Xiaodong flying, rolling far across the ground, but unharmed. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
However, Song Xiaodong’s fall directly broke the cooperation of the trio. Now Song Xiaodong was on the ground, and Sun Yiyi and Chu Xianling were behind Liu Bai, with nothing left to stop him.
“Sect Leader Song, I, Liu, will see you off personally.” Liu Bai’s lips curled into a smug smile as his figure flashed and appeared before Song Xiaodong.
“Do you think you can really kill me?” Song Xiaodong got up, his face showing no sign of panic.
“What other tricks do you have? It’s not a disgrace for a sect leader with only Three Meridians True Qi to die at my hands.”
Liu Bai extended his hand like a claw, aiming to grab Song Xiaodong’s throat weak spot.
“Xiaodong!” Sun Yiyi and Chu Xianling both panicked, but Liu Bai was as swift as lightning, leaving them no time to intervene.
Liu Bai noticed that Song Xiaodong didn’t show any fear of death, with rather a hint of a smile on his lips.
“Whoosh!—”
Liu Bai, possessing Four Meridians True Qi and stronger sensory abilities, suddenly heard an extremely sharp whistling from the Coconut Grove, a sound clearly caused by a high-speed moving object slicing through the air, just as he was about to step on Song Xiaodong.
At this moment, if Liu Bai had insisted on killing Song Xiaodong, not even Ghosts and Gods could have saved him, but years of combat experience made Liu Bai instinctively react to danger, executing a high-difficulty twist in the air to leap over Song Xiaodong and dodge the incoming hidden weapon.
When Liu Bai landed, he found that it was just a rock, mocking him like he had done to Song Xiaodong.
Taking advantage, Song Xiaodong rolled on the ground to retreat to a safe distance, rejoining Sun Yiyi and Chu Xianling to reassemble the Three Talents Formation.
Liu Bai looked toward the grove, seeing a black shadow flash toward him from the Coconut Grove.
Seeing the shadow, Liu Bai dared not take it lightly. Exerting full force, he moved so fast his figure blurred, the two shadows quickly entangled, having exchanged several moves in a blink.
