Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 355 The Last Palm

As early as when he was in the martial arts world, Huang Sixi had already decided to create the last palm of the "Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Subduing".

But he had extremely high requirements for this palm, seeking to make it flawless and perfect.

He hopes to combine hundreds of martial arts, allow his palm power to contain all kinds of changes, have both offensive and defensive capabilities without any flaws, and not be bound by internal force, until he reaches the pinnacle of martial arts in the world.

Over the years, he has never stopped deducing the final palm.

Initially, he incorporated the unique skill of Wushuang City's Young Lord Dugu Ming, 'Kill the Dragon and Seek the Way'.

This move is extremely powerful. When performing the move, one must channel the true energy into the legs, and then strike from a high position in the air, causing horrific damage within a range.

Back then, when Dugu Mingyun was trying to "kill a dragon and seek the truth", he stepped on the ground for several feet and made a crack a foot deep. The entire crack was shaped like a dragon's body.

No matter who is inside the dragon mark, they will be trampled to pieces. It is most suitable for dealing with sieges. As long as the kick is appropriate, dozens of people can be trampled to death at the same time.

However, 'Kill the Dragon and Seek the Way' has serious flaws. Every time it is performed, at least most of the internal energy in the body must be mobilized. Although many enemies can be killed, one's own internal energy will be exhausted.

After Huang Sixi used the Dragon Subduing Sword to kill Feng Yun and his two brothers, and watched Feng Yun's combined supreme move 'Mahayana', the defect of internal force loss was compensated.

'Maha' is a Sanskrit word in Buddhism, meaning infinity, and 'liang' means impossible to measure. To perform this unique move, one uses one's own internal force to draw the force of nature and incorporate it into the move. The more force drawn, the more powerful the move will be.

Huang Sixi inherited another magical skill of Buddhism, "Tathagata Palm", the eighth style "Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage" also has the characteristic of borrowing external force for one's own use.

Once "Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage" is activated, all foreign objects including human bodies, weapons, plants, rocks and water will be sucked in by the true qi as long as they are within the range of the person's true qi.

Now Huang Sixi has also studied Shi Zhixuan's "Immortal Seal", this magical skill can absorb and transform external true energy.

If 'Mahamutromanta', 'Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage to the Lord' and 'Immortal Seal' are combined, then when the palm power is activated, all natural things can be absorbed into the palm, and you can use the power for replenishment when defending and transform the power into attacking the enemy.

If we deduce this from the last palm, there is no flaw in the move.

But Huang Sixi still felt dissatisfied.

He thought to himself, "I killed Qu Ao by catching him off guard, and Zhu Yuyan committed suicide by burning herself to death. If Qu Ao and Zhu Yuyan use all their strength to escape, it will be difficult for me to stop them. If I meet other masters in the future, I am afraid I will face the same situation again! My last palm must have the advantage of cutting off the master's retreat!"

When he thought of this, the scene of the Sword Master using the invincible sword move "Heaven-Destroying Sword Twenty-Three" in Xiongba Hall immediately emerged in his mind.

At that time, the Sword Master sacrificed his life and used all his strength to unleash this sword move, forming a sword force aura that locked hundreds of heroes of Xiongba Hall in the aura field.

Within the aura of the Sword Saint, all martial arts masters became rigid, their Qi unable to circulate, and they seemed to be frozen in time, allowing themselves to be cut by the sword energy.

The more advanced Huang Sixi's martial arts skills were, the more he felt that this sword move was miraculous.

His inner strength was completely inherited from the Sword Saint, but he still couldn't figure out how the Sword Saint was able to lock the sword force aura into the Xiong Ba Hall from a distance of dozens of feet.

Even if he used the Dragon Subduing Sword to open the realm of 'Sword Heart Clear', he could only allow the aura to spread over a range of several feet at most, and the farther it spread, the weaker the aura's locking power would become.

If the opponent is a master-level expert, the effect of the aura will be further weakened.

When Huang Sixi and Shi Zhixuan were fighting, Shi Zhixuan let his aura spread out to several feet away, so he could only sense the changes in Huang Sixi's true energy. He was unable to rely on his aura to restrict Huang Sixi, let alone hurt the enemy.

The same thing happened when Huang Sixi's 'Sword Heart Clear' aura enveloped Shi Zhixuan and Zhu Yuyan.

But how did the Sword Saint's 'Heaven-Destroying Sword Twenty-Three' make his aura omnipotent? There must be a mystery that Huang Sixi could not comprehend.

On the way to Chang'an, Huang Sixi had been pondering the Sword Master's final sword move in order to incorporate it into his final palm.

Since Huang Sixi was traveling in a horse-drawn carriage, the speed was relatively slow.

The journey was bumpy for nearly half a month.

It was not until October that Huang Sixi finally arrived at the foot of Mount Zhongnan, and the City of Chang'an was already in sight.

It’s noon this day.

Huang Sixi parked the carriage in a forest and accompanied Kankan and Shi Qingxuan to rest for a while.

It is autumn now and the leaves have fallen, no longer blocking the view.

Huang Sixi, Kan Kan and Shi Qingxuan passed through the forest area and found that the official roads inside and outside were crowded with pedestrians. They were driving mule carts and horse-drawn carriages filled with all kinds of parcels and luggage. They lined up in a long queue and headed south, as if they were fleeing collectively.

The official road was so crowded that it was overwhelmed. Even the two sides of the road were densely packed with people. Huang Sixi, Kan Kan and Shi Qingxuan's carriages were traveling in the opposite direction of the crowd, so there was naturally a traffic jam. They had no choice but to turn to the woods to rest.

Xianxian frowned slightly: "The Li Clan's army must be approaching Chang'an soon, causing panic among the people, so they will flee en masse."

Whenever war breaks out in any place and involves siege, there will be scenes of people fleeing in advance. No matter how good the reputation of the warring parties is, or whether they have not harmed the people, it is impossible to dispel the people's fear.

In fact, from ancient times to the present, more than 90% of siege wars will cause disasters with rivers of blood. The people's premonition was not wrong at all. Fleeing to the outside of the city for refuge was an extremely correct choice.

Shi Qingxuan secretly estimated the distance and suggested, "We are only 20 to 30 miles away from Chang'an. Why don't we abandon the carriage and ride into the city on horseback?"

Wan Wan's beautiful eyes turned and she asked with a smile: "Has Sister Xuan visited the capital many times? This is Wan'er's first time here!"

Shi Qingxuan raised the bamboo flute in her hand and whispered to Wan Wan: "Have you forgotten that I am a musician? I have performed in the capital several times before. When we enter the city, I will take you for a good tour."

After that, he asked Huang Sixi, "Brother, have you ever been to the capital before?"

Huang Sixi was still reading the Immortal Seal, and he casually replied, "Like Qian'er, this is my first visit here. Sister Xuan, please take me with you when the time comes!"

Shi Qingxuan pursed her lips and said, "I am happy to serve you, brother!"

Seeing that the people were lined up in an endless stream on the official road, and that the team might have already reached the gate of Chang'an, she felt that life was difficult, so she picked up her bamboo flute and played a little tune that came from her heart.

Looking far to the north, Qianqian sighed: "Qinzhong has been the land of emperors since ancient times, and can be called the eternal imperial capital. It's a pity that we came at the wrong time and caught up with the war. This will affect the fun of the trip!"

As she spoke here, there was a sudden commotion on the official road.

A group of warriors riding tall horses rushed up the official road. They were also going to ride north, but were blocked by the civilians. Qianqian had a keen eye. She saw that although these warriors were wearing Hanfu, they were wearing fur hats and had curved swords on their waists. She immediately whispered to Huang Sixi: "My dear, these are a group of Turks, and they are elite with superior martial arts!"

Huang Sixi had already sensed the abundant power of these warriors, so he lowered the book and looked over. He found that the appearance features of these warriors were almost the same as Yan Lihui and Tie Xiong whom he met by the river.

Leading the group was a young man and woman. The male leader was estimated to be around 25 or 26 years old, with a heroic bun on his head, a gloomy look, and a pair of flying swords hanging from his shoulders.

This strange weapon is rarely used in the martial arts world. The two claws are shaped like eagle claws, with a meter-long thin rope in the middle. It is impossible to master it without diligent practice.

The female leader was wearing a tight military uniform, had a wide round face, a bunch of freckles on each cheekbones, and her deep eyes were filled with unruly wildness.

Behind the couple were eighteen knights, all of whom were strong and brave. They seemed to have encountered some urgent matter and were annoyed by the traffic jam, so they suddenly raised their whips and started lashing at the crowd.

The people were unable to dodge and fell down.

These knights turned a blind eye and simply used force to clear the way.

After walking for a while, the whip of the knight at the head of the line was suddenly grabbed by a middle-aged scholar.

This middle-aged scholar was not handsome and his face was rather rough, but he had a broad forehead and sparkling eyes, which gave him an air of stability and wisdom. He reached out and grasped the whip to stop the knights from continuing to beat the civilians.

He was accompanied by a woman in red, who showed her hatred of evil: "Just walk, why hit someone?"

The red-dressed woman shook the whisk in her hand and swept it across the air, knocking the knight off his horse with one blow.

After the knight landed, he drew out his sword with a bang, cursed in Turkish, and chopped at the woman in red.

As a result, the knife broke before it hit the knight's chest due to the middle-aged scholar's palm. The scholar then poked the knight's chest with his finger, and the knight fell to the ground with a muffled thud, vomiting blood.

This middle-aged scholar was quite skilled in martial arts, but he did not fight with the remaining knights.

He reached out and grabbed the red-dressed woman's arm, whispering to her: "There are too many people here, and fighting will hurt innocent people. Let's retreat to the woods first, and then slowly deal with them!"

The red-dressed woman said in hatred, "These Turkic barbarians are really lawless. They dare to be so arrogant in our territory. We must kill them all today!"

The middle-aged scholar sighed, "The world is in chaos now. If the northern heroes want to fight for the world, they have to rely on the Turks. They are stronger than us in the Central Plains, so it's not surprising that they are rampant!"

The two men jumped up side by side, instantly breaking away from the crowd and rushing into the woods.

It was also a coincidence that the direction the two men retreated was exactly where Huang Sixi, Kan Kan and Shi Qingxuan were resting.

The other knights on the official road saw the two men running away, and immediately chased them, quickly unhooking their longbows, skillfully nodding feather arrows, and shooting with "whoosh!"

As more than ten horses were galloping at the same time, the impact force was very strong, causing the people in the surrounding area to scatter. Many people followed the middle-aged scholar and the red-dressed woman without knowing the direction. They were accidentally injured by the feather arrows and fell to the ground wailing.

At this time, the middle-aged scholar and the red-dressed woman had already retreated into the forest.
The two of them stepped on the treetops and turned over several times, then landed on an open space in the forest. They saw Huang Sixi, Kan Kan and Shi Qingxuan in front of them. They were all stunned, as if they had not expected that there would be pedestrians stopping here.

Just as the two were about to shout, a dense rain of arrows suddenly sounded behind them.

More than ten feather arrows pierced through the tree canopy and shot down.

The two men turned around to block the arrows, but they were horrified to find that an extremely cold air current suddenly surged around them, freezing the two men so much that their bodies instantly stiffened, as if a huge rock weighing thousands of pounds was suddenly pressed down on them, and they could no longer muster the energy to attack.

At this moment, the two of them were knights facing outside the forest, with their backs to Huang Sixi, Kan Kan and Shi Qingxuan.

The two men couldn't see that Huang Sixi was raising his palm and pushing forward.

Once the palm force was released, it not only locked the bodies of the two men, but also fixed more than ten feather arrows that were shot at their heads in mid-air.

Seeing this scene, Kankan and Shi Qingxuan were both surprised and curious about what kind of magical palm technique Huang Sixi was performing.
Huang Sixi bent his elbows slightly and slapped his palms forward again. More than ten feather arrows flew backwards in the air. During the flight, the arrows formed a cyclone, wrapped around the dead leaves in the tree canopy, and shot towards the more than ten knights who had rushed into the forest.

The feather arrows could not originally cover more than ten people, but hundreds of dead leaves were infused with palm power, all becoming as sharp as blades, densely packed like leaf rain, covering more than ten knights.

After this sudden attack, more than a dozen knights, along with their horses, were instantly paralyzed and killed on the spot, all of them were shot with holes.

Only the young male and female leaders believed that their cavalry alone were enough to shoot and kill the middle-aged scholar and the red-dressed woman, so they followed slowly behind and did not enter the attack range of Huang Sixi's palm power.

However, when the two men saw that Huang Sixi slapped out with one palm and killed more than ten cavalrymen to the ground, they knew that they had met an unparalleled master, so they immediately grabbed the reins and turned around to escape.

Unexpectedly, after Huang Sixi finished using one palm, he used another palm again.

As he moved forward, he pushed out his palm, and the palm force struck out into the air, condensing an aura in mid-air. From a distance of more than ten feet, the aura moved in the air and covered the leaders of the young man and woman.

The man and woman, along with their horses, were all locked in place by the aura, which crushed them like a mountain collapsing on top of them.

The palm force was over ten thousand pounds, and it made it impossible for the two men to escape on horseback.

The two were terrified by the sudden strange palm power and shouted: "We are Tuoba Yu and Chun Yuwei, disciples of Martial Master Bi Xuan. You have killed the 'Eighteen Cavalrymen of the Northern Frontier' trained by our master. If you kill us again, our master will come to find you personally!"

Huang Sixi said in a deep voice: "I have heard of Bi Xuan's name for a long time. Even if he doesn't come to find me, I will go to find him! It's only a matter of time!"

After pondering over the 'Heaven-Destroying Sword Twenty-Three', he guessed that the Sword Saint's aura was far away in the air, rather than spreading over a large area.

He confined his aura to a space of ten feet, and then struck out into the air with his palm force, causing the aura to shift. In this way, he could lock down his opponent from a long distance.

With his current level of internal strength, his palm strike in the air can reach more than ten feet away, and his aura can also be moved that far. If he uses his true energy to attract the power of nature, then the coverage of his palm power can be even farther.

He sent a palm strike towards Tuoba Yu and Chun Yu Wei, intending to crush them to death with the palm force and aura.

However, he had just created this palm technique not long ago, and it had not yet reached the level of perfection that he could use at will.

As the aura narrowed and fell, the palm power gradually increased, but all the attacking force was concentrated on Tuoba Yu. With a "puff!" sound, Tuoba Yu seemed to be hit by a huge rock, and he fell to the ground with a bloody mess, and died on the spot.

At this point the palm power faded, and the restraining force on Chun Yuwei also disappeared. She let out a low cry, not daring to stop at all, and jumped off the horse, trying to rush into the crowd of people, using the crowd's cover to escape.

But just as she jumped into the air, Kankan's demon ribbon flew over, wrapped around her waist, and pulled her backwards. She couldn't help but fly back into the woods.
