"You haven't heard of Ancient Sage Qiu Wu's Heavenly Demon Great Sorrow Palm? Back then, unable to pay his final respects to his deceased mother due to compelling circumstances, Ancient Sage Qiu Wu created this technique out of deep sorrow . Due to the concept behind the technique, the Heavenly Demon Great Sorrow Palm is one of the few physical battle techniques that is able to faze a cultivator's soul! Legend has it that one of its moves consists of a palm art descending from the heavens," Zhang Jiuxiao quickly explained as he stared at the sight before him with the utmost shock .
As an offspring of the Zhang Clan, while the lacking purity of his bloodline made him unqualified to access the best cultivation resources within the clan, the experiences and relics that he had come into contact with in the Zhang Clan still granted him knowledge and an eye of discernment far superior to the master teachers of the Qingyuan Conferred Empire .
As one of the closest followers of Kong shi, Ancient Sage Qiu Wu was indubitably a legendary figure of the Master Teacher Pavilion . While the Heavenly Demon Great Sorrow Palm was not the strongest battle technique that he had created, the unique properties of the technique still made it rather well-known .
Hu hu!
While Zhang Jiuxiao was explaining the palm art to the other master teacher, more and more power was gathering in front of Zhang Xuan's palm, stirring up a mini tornado in the surroundings . Everyone could not help but retreat before the powerful air currents .
A tree desires the calm, but the wind batters relentlessly; a child seeks to repay, but his parents wait not! 1
"Hmm?"
Seemingly recognizing the move as well, Pavilion Master Gou's body trembled in astonishment .
The person whom he respected the most happened to be Ancient Sage Qiu Wu, so naturally, he knew about the Heavenly Demon Great Sorrow Palm as well . His mind was almost blown when he saw Zhang Xuan executing the move!
He had searched for Ancient Sage Qiu Wu's heritage for so many years, but to no avail . Who would have thought that the young man before him would be able to execute the battle techniques of his idol so easily, so smoothly, and so powerfully!
Huala!
In his moment of astonishment, the palm strike finally fell upon him .
Zhang Xuan possessed the Eye of Insight, and he had already achieved the level of Infinitesimal Maneuver as well . As such, he was able to grasp the flow of battle with perfect precision . It took a mere glance for him to notice the huge fluctuations in Pavilion Master Gou's emotions, and he instinctively knew that this was the ideal opportunity for him to strike .
Under the immense force of the palm strike, Pavilion Master Gou's Primordial Spirit was forcefully struck back into his body before he retreated eight steps back . His face reddened from the impact, and a mouthful of blood burst from his lips .
That single palm strike had dealt considerable internal injuries to him .
"The Leaving Aperture realm Pavilion Master Gou… was actually injured by Zhang shi?"
"But there is a three-realm difference between the two of them!"
"To be able to bridge this gap and match Pavilion Master Gou squarely, Zhang shi is too formidable!"
The other master teachers did not recognize the Heavenly Demon Great Sorrow Palm, but upon seeing Pavilion Master Gou getting injured from Zhang Xuan's assault, their bodies could not help but stiffen in disbelief .
To them, Pavilion Master Gou was not only the most powerful expert of the Master Teacher Pavilion but a symbol of its invincibility as well . He was the sturdy pillar whom they could fall back on in times of crisis . Yet, in less than three blows, Zhang Xuan had already managed to push him back and deal considerable internal injuries to him . This was an immense shock to all of them .
"It's fortunate that we listened earnestly to his lecture instead of challenging him, or else… we might have been lying on the floor at this very moment!"
"Indeed . Thank god for Zhang shi's magnanimity…"
Wiping the cold sweat off their foreheads, the master teachers patted their wildly beating chest in relief .
Earlier, when they had submitted to Zhang Xuan's Impartation of Heaven's Will without putting up a fight, they had felt that they had let the Master Teacher Pavilion down . However, the sight before them had dispelled the deep guilt within them .
Against such strength, even if they had really challenged Zhang Xuan, there was no doubt that they would have been defeated as well! Their involvement would not have made the slightest difference to the ultimate outcome .
"Your move…" Frantically steadying his body, Pavilion Master Gou swiftly suppressed his internal injuries before turning to Zhang Xuan with an anxious look . He opened his mouth, wanting to ask the young man before him about the technique that he had just executed, but before he could finish his words, the young man had already charged up to him to continue his assault .
This time, the young man's palm strike was much more powerful than before . While it was not augmented by the momentum of his descent, the might that it wielded did not pale in comparison at all .
Humph, I'll take a look for myself to see if that is the real Heavenly Demon Great Sorrow Palm or not! Knowing that it would be fatal if he allowed himself to be distracted in battle, Pavilion Master Gou swiftly put aside all of his miscellaneous thoughts and turned his attention back to the battle .
Previously, he had been relying on the abilities unique to Leaving Aperture realm cultivators to deal with Zhang Xuan, but this time, he wanted to rely on his own zhenqi and body and fight a proper battle with the other party .
Placing his palms together before his chest, ripples of shockwaves began spreading out one after another from the meeting of his hands, inducing a deafening sonic boom .
Saint intermediate-tier battle technique, Myriad Waves Layered Clouds!
Legend had it that a master teacher had created this battle technique when inspiration struck him while studying the flow of water within a river . Ripples of shockwaves would burst forth relentlessly like the river that flowed tirelessly, overwhelming the surroundings through its multiple layers just like the clouds concealed the sky .
Pavilion Master Gou had devoted countless years of his life to refining this technique of his, and he had long achieved a high level of mastery in it . The Myriad Waves Layered Clouds easily halted the advancement of Zhang Xuan's Heavenly Demon Great Sorrow Palm, keeping it firmly at bay .
However, Zhang Xuan did not back down just because of that . Instead, while continuing to exert force on his right hand, he raised his left hand and gathered the Power of the Stars on his fingertip before shooting a blinding ray of light forward .
"The Grand Constellation Finger?"
"A palm art in one hand, a finger art in the other?"
The crowd was stunned by what they were seeing . Even Zhang Jiuxiao was shocked speechless by the sight, not daring to believe his eyes .
A palm art and a finger art were two entirely different battle techniques, and the zhenqi circulation pathways required for executing the techniques were completely different from one another as well . It was possible to execute the palm art first before executing the finger art, or vice-versa, but… to execute them simultaneously on a hand each… that was a nigh impossible feat!
Putting aside them, not even Pavilion Master Gou would have been able to accomplish such a feat!
Wuuuuuuuuuu!
The Grand Constellation Finger swiftly tore a small hole in Pavilion Master Gou's Myriad Waves Layered Clouds, causing the might of the latter's battle technique to disperse swiftly like flowing water, thus undoing the defense that the other party had built up .
Kacha!
The Heavenly Demon Great Sorrow Palm swiftly tore through Pavilion Master Gou's weakened defense with overwhelming might, forcing the latter to retreat in a fluster .
Incredible!
Not expecting that he would still be outdone despite having exerted his full strength, Pavilion Master Gou assessed the young man before him grimly . Swapping his palm with a fist, he charged forward once more .
