Chapter 366: Tathagata Palm vs. Toad Technique

Boom!

After a not-too-lengthy period of gathering power, Huoyun Xieshen lunged over like a giant toad, pushing both palms out together; the formless palm force was like a collapsing Divine Mountain, striking heavily toward Yu Liancheng with an irresistible, overwhelming momentum.

Crash!!

Before the palms even arrived, the formless palm force, carrying a raging hurricane, had already swept toward him; countless gravel and debris were stirred up and swept into the palm wind, rushing toward Yu Liancheng like an angry dragon, the momentum terrifying to the extreme.

Yu Liancheng's figure jolted, his Qi surging out to form a formless Protective Qi Cover that enveloped his entire body, leaving not a single gap or flaw.

Boom!

Just as the Qi Cover formed, the palm wind carrying the dragon of debris slammed into it with the force of a landslide and a tidal wave.

The Qi Cover shook violently; the gravel was ground into fine powder between the cover and the palm wind, flying everywhere, and the palm wind gradually dissipated. The Qi Cover also became shaky, appearing as if it might be Broken at any moment.

A moment later, the palm wind dissipated. But the palm wind was merely a prelude, intended to shake Yu Liancheng's defensive stance; the true killing blow lay in those two palms. With a "bang," the palms pressed against the Qi Cover, and the Toad True Qi spewed out wildly; the Qi Cover held for a moment before shattering into pieces.

But it was in this very moment that Yu Liancheng also pushed his palms out.

As his palms pushed out, the airflow rolled and surged, as if transforming into raging waves that suddenly rose a thousand feet high like a mountain, crashing down with an all-encompassing force—this was precisely the Surging Waves Like Mountains from the Seven Spin Slashes.

Amidst a loud boom, Yu Liancheng's figure flew backward, drifting as lightly as a feather.

Having been blocked by both the Protective Qi Cover and the Surging Waves Like Mountains, this strike could no longer cause Yu Liancheng any harm.

Huoyun Xieshen let out a "gu" sound and shot toward Yu Liancheng once more, palms pushing forward. But this strike lacked power buildup and was redirected by Yu Liancheng using the "Transfer Flowers and Grafting Jade" technique into an administrative building, causing the building to collapse with a roar.

Borrowing the force of this strike, Yu Liancheng unleashed his movement technique, appearing as if riding a dragon, his figure soaring straight into the blue sky.

His hands spread wide, as if to embrace the entire world. The world turned from noisy to silent, and the clouds and mist were stirred by his scorching Qi, scattering in all directions.

At the moment this upward force was exhausted, Yu Liancheng, wrapped in an incomparably abundant Qi, dove downward.

His hands were pressed together, his expression as calm as an ancient well, and as his eyes opened and closed, divine light seemed to flow; his entire person exuded a vast, solemn, and sacred aura.

With grand Buddhist chants echoing, Yu Liancheng flipped his palms, forming the Zhiji Xiangyin, and a golden Swastika of Buddha light condensed in his palm, rotating and flowing incessantly.

Within the range covered by the Buddha light, it was as if a great golden Buddha had suddenly descended, chanting and pushing a Buddha palm, intending to unleash boundless Demon-subduing power.

——The eighth form of the Tathagata Palm, Boundless Buddha Dharma.

Huoyun Xieshen, lying on the ground, showed no fear; while Yu Liancheng unleashed Boundless Buddha Dharma, he was also gathering his own power.

Now that he had pushed his internal Qi to its peak, he was confident that in all of heaven and earth, no one could withstand a strike that had been charged for so long.

With a "gu" sound of exhaling, Huoyun Xieshen stomped hard on the ground; the ground for dozens of feet around seemed to have suffered a natural disaster, shattering and cracking, and he himself shot into the air like a sharp arrow, refusing to dodge or evade, intending to fight Yu Liancheng head-on.

Boom!!

A dull collision sound rang out between heaven and earth, as if hundreds of missiles had exploded in the air simultaneously; the shockwave blasted through the sky, scattering the clouds, the sound shaking the area for ten miles.

One could imagine that if this strike had occurred on the ground, the entire municipal government building would have suffered a devastating blow, turning into a pile of ruins.

Cold sweat broke out on Huoyun Xieshen's forehead; his power buildup had been sufficient, and he had unleashed an unprecedented strike.

It was just a pity that he was facing Yu Liancheng, facing "Boundless Buddha Dharma."

"Boundless Buddha Dharma" was inherently a powerful move second only to "Wanfo Chaozong," and under Yu Liancheng's execution, its power was unimaginably fierce, with Buddhist chants playing to continuously erode Huoyun Xieshen's fighting spirit.

Huoyun Xieshen retreated step by step; he let out a fierce roar that shook the mountains and rivers, wanting to squeeze out the last bit of potential from his body. Unfortunately, it only caused Yu Liancheng's palm force to stall slightly, followed by an endless torrent of Buddha power pouring down like a celestial river.

Rumbling!

Huoyun Xieshen slammed into the ground like a meteor, creating a deep pit in the earth.

And Yu Liancheng's palm force was not yet spent; he also dove downward, his palm descending. If this palm were to land on Huoyun Xieshen, I fear there would be no more Ultimate Killer King in this world.

Huoyun Xieshen, lying below, was pressed down by the palm wind and could barely rise; he suddenly shouted: "I surrender, I won't fight anymore, can you give me a way to live?" This cry was incomparably miserable, like a beast at the end of its rope, making one feel a sense of pity.

The reason this old Xieshen had been able to escape with his life repeatedly after losing battles in the past was not only because he could bend and stretch, but also because he had practiced a Mental Secret Technique that could make people feel compassion and lower their guard.

Yu Liancheng shifted his figure, landing lightly on the ground, and smiled: "Fine, but you must join the Qinglong Society and be used by me."

"Understood, I agree." Huoyun Xieshen lowered his head, a flash of ferocity suddenly crossing his face. He flipped his palm, and an object like a Hairpin appeared in his hand, its top a closed golden lotus flower, and he lunged to stab Yu Liancheng.

Yu Liancheng frowned, his hand moving as fast as lightning to grab Huoyun Xieshen's wrist.

Huoyun Xieshen twisted his wrist, and the golden lotus flower opened, shooting out a beam of Jinguang that pierced into Yu Liancheng's abdomen in the blink of an eye, blood flowing out in a gush.

Except for a period in his later years, Huoyun Xieshen was never invincible, but those whose martial arts surpassed his had all been killed by him.

"Despicable!"

Yu Liancheng staggered back two steps, supporting his injury, and struck Huoyun Xieshen's chest heavily with one palm, sending him flying away, while he himself fell to one knee.

Huoyun Xieshen's hidden weapon was designed to break external hard-body training and was coated with deadly poison. But with his Internal Force and physique, as long as he was given time, he could force the hidden weapon out.

However, just as both were injured, a black figure appeared out of thin air behind Yu Liancheng, like a ghost.

The black shadow suddenly raised a fist, smashing down toward Yu Liancheng's head. It was an unremarkable strike, but it gave the feeling of a supreme hegemon wielding a heavy fist to divide heaven and earth.

Based on this punch alone, it was enough to judge that the person before him was a master on the same level as Huoyun Xieshen.

And the timing this person chose was also perfectly precise.

Yu Liancheng was injured, had just defeated a strong enemy, and was focusing all his energy on healing, his mind letting down its guard.

This tiny flaw would be nothing under normal circumstances, but once taken advantage of by a top-tier master, it could cost him his life.

"Rakshasa Cult Sect Leader, you are finally willing to show yourself."

Who would have thought that at this very moment, the corners of Yu Liancheng's mouth would suddenly curl into a mocking sneer.
