Chapter 14: Unleashing the Water-Dirty Thunder, Capturing Hua Wuque!
After all, Zhao Qing got into trouble on her own.
He deliberately provoked Hua Wuque; if he gets killed, it's entirely his own fault.
That's what Huang Rong thought.
Zhao Qing is now fully focused, and his internal energy is ready.
Hua Wuque remained extremely calm, completely disregarding Zhao Qing.
Suddenly, Zhao Qing seized the opportunity to attack!
He struck Hua Wuque with a powerful palm strike.
"Bang!"
Hua Wuque stood still and casually struck out with his palm.
This palm strike may seem gentle, but it is incredibly powerful.
The palm strike was powerful, rushing towards Zhao Qing.
This is the ultimate skill of the Yihua Palace—Yihua Jieyu (Transplanting Flowers and Jade).
The best palm technique is the technique of "transferring flowers and grafting jade".
This palm technique can be used freely, and its characteristic is that it becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents.
The fiercer the enemy's attack, the stronger the counterattack.
The core of this martial art is to redirect and deflect enemy attacks.
It is essentially a skill that uses the opponent's force against them, similar to the Wudang technique of using four ounces to deflect a thousand pounds and the Shaolin technique of the Eighteen Falling Techniques.
Once you understand the direction of your opponent's force, you can use palm techniques to change the direction of your attack.
Before Zhao Qing could fully unleash his attack, it was cleverly deflected by his opponent, making it even more powerful.
However, Zhao Qing reacted quickly and dodged Hua Wuque's rebound force.
Otherwise, that attack would have seriously injured him.
After his attack failed, Zhao Qing stopped and stared warily at Hua Wuque.
Hua Wuque did not attack; he never wanted to fight Zhao Qing.
Zhao Qing frowned. The martial arts of the Yihua Palace were indeed powerful. He needed the Changhong Sword to fight Hua Wuque.
The Rainbow Sword can enhance the power of swordsmanship, but Zhao Qing currently has no sword.
There were no suitable weapons at hand.
He definitely couldn't defeat Hua Wuque with just the Changhong Sword Technique.
"Using their own methods against them, the Flower-Shifting Jade Technique of the Flower-Shifting Palace is indeed unstoppable."
"But I'm going to test whether you can bounce all your attacks back!"
Zhao Qing stared intently at Hua Wuque, his fighting spirit ignited.
Hua Wuque's nonchalant attitude infuriated him.
Zhao Qing decided to teach this playboy a lesson.
"Yin Five Thunder Technique - Palm Thunder!"
Zhao Qing raised his arm, his five fingers spread open.
Several black bolts of lightning were fierce and unpredictable, with astonishing power.
It erupted from Zhao Qing's palm and instantly rushed towards Hua Wuque.
Hua Wuque frowned, and the folding fan in his hand fell to the ground.
Hua Wuque no longer stood with his hands behind his back, but instead used both palms to strike, employing the "Shifting Flowers and Jade" technique to redirect the attack.
But the black lightning was exceptionally powerful, and even the most powerful techniques like the "Transplanting Flowers and Jade" technique couldn't budge it in the slightest.
"Boom!"
Amidst a deafening roar, black lightning raged across the street, stirring up clouds of dust.
The once neat stone-paved streets were charred black by the explosion.
As the smoke and dust cleared, Hua Wuque stood proudly in the middle of the street.
Hua Wuque was not seriously injured, but his usually pristine white robes were covered in dust.
Zhao Qing's Yin Five Thunder Technique shocked everyone.
Hua Wuque's maids, He Lu and He Shuang, stared at Zhao Qing in disbelief.
Unexpectedly, this person actually dirtied their young master's clothes.
Since descending the mountain, the flawless young master has never lost; his opponents can't even touch his clothes.
But the fact that this person dirtied Hua Wuque's clothes proves that he is no ordinary person.
Hua Wuque's eyes were focused, completely absorbed.
"Your martial arts skills are very strong; you directly broke through the 'Shifting Flowers and Jade' technique."
"I underestimated you before, but I won't anymore."
Hua Wuque abandoned his composure and prepared for battle with all his might.
Seeing Hua Wuque's serious expression, Zhao Qing sneered, "Today I will defeat your Yihua Palace martial arts with Yin Five Thunder!"
"Helu, sword!"
Hua Wuque gave the order, and He Lu immediately threw the sword to him.
Hua Wuque drew his weapon and fought with all his might.
"Take this!"
Hua Wuque attacked with his sword.
"etc."
Hua Wuque stopped and maintained his composure.
Zhao Qing looked at He Shuang and said directly, "Sister, lend me your sword."
"Pah, you scoundrel! Who's your sister?!"
"Um... Sister, can I borrow your sword?"
"Pah! Who's your sister? Don't even think about it!"
Although Zhao Qing was beautiful, He Shuang was not moved.
She had served the flawless young master since childhood and was used to his handsome appearance, so Zhao Qing was of no use to her.
"I'm not playing anymore, it's not fair."
When Zhao Qing was refused the sword, he immediately shouted that it was unfair; he could not tolerate an unfair contest.
"He Shuang, give him the sword."
"Yes, young master."
He Shuang reluctantly threw the sword to Zhao Qing, disgusted by his act of abducting a woman.
"Young Master Zhao, may we begin?"
Hua Wuque asked politely.
Zhao Qing didn't answer, he just took action!
Yes, a sneak attack.
He was never a gentleman, so a sneak attack was normal; he launched a fierce attack with the Rainbow Sunset.
Hua Wuque didn't use the "Transferring Flowers and Jade" technique; instead, he countered directly with the "Transferring Flowers Palace" sword technique.
"Whoosh!"
Zhao Qing thrust his sword forward, but Hua Wuque countered with a sword strike, forcing him back.
Hua Wuque immediately stepped forward, his sword tip pointing at Zhao Qing's throat.
He's incredibly fast!
Zhao Qing could neither dodge nor block this sword strike.
Just as the sword tip was about to pierce Zhao Qing's throat, a gush of dark liquid gushed out from Zhao Qing's body.
The dark liquid immediately covered Yang's entire body.
This liquid, though seemingly ordinary, actually blocked Hua Wuque's sword.
Even with all its might, the sword tip could not advance an inch.
Only by striking the inky liquid forcefully can it be broken.
He immediately sheathed his sword and took ten steps back, his expression tense, staring intently at Zhao Qing, not daring to relax.
After a short while, the black liquid gradually dissipated.
Hua Wuque asked directly, "What is this?"
This black liquid was bizarre and terrifying. Hua Wuque had never seen such martial arts before.
Zhao Qing smiled and said, "The Five Thunder Orthodox Method is a top-level martial art of Taoism. The Five Thunders are five kinds of Qi."
"Humans are born with Qi, which belongs to the Five Elements. When the five types of Qi are activated simultaneously, it constitutes the Five Thunder Orthodox Method."
"However, the five types of Qi have different strengths and cannot erupt simultaneously. One type of Qi must dominate."
"I practice the Yin Five Thunder Method, which uses kidney water to drive liver wood qi, allowing yin energy to erupt directly. It is also called Water Digestion Thunder."
"This is what a water mine looks like: filthy and smelly."
Hua Wuque didn't fully understand, but he realized that this was what was called thunder.
The scene before me was a pool of pitch-black sewage.
Dirty water surged from Zhao Qing's sleeve, flowing continuously to the ground and spreading along the street.
The water-soaked thunder instantly covered half of the street.
Hua Wuque thought Zhao Qing's methods were extremely strange.
But Hua Wuque was not afraid, knowing that Zhao Qing's cultivation was far inferior to his own.
No matter how bizarre the moves, they cannot withstand absolute power.
To deal with this kind of opponent, overwhelming them with sheer power is enough.
Hua Wuque immediately used his movement technique, moving as fast as lightning, to circle behind Zhao Qing.
He channeled all his inner strength into his dantian, concentrated it into a single sword strike, and unleashed a fierce slash.
But the sword missed its mark.
Hua Wuque's expression suddenly changed, realizing that something was wrong, and he immediately drew his sword to block.
"clang!"
Hua Wuque blocked Zhao Qing's sword, but the immense force was too much for him to bear; his legs trembled, and he collapsed to his knees.
"Such fast swordplay, such powerful internal energy!"
"This is definitely the peak of the acquired realm cultivation."
Hua Wuque was shocked. This was absolutely impossible!
But he had no time to think, and immediately activated his true energy to force Zhao Qing back, then his long sword pierced towards Zhao Qing like lightning.
Zhao Qing's figure moved as elusively as a ghost, easily dodging more than a dozen sharp sword lights.
Only then did Hua Wuque realize that something was wrong.
Everything around me slowed down...
"Bang!"
Zhao Qing kicked Hua Wuque in the chest.
Hua Wuque used his internal energy to block the attack, and only took a few steps back before regaining his footing.
"Yes, you noticed."
Zhao Qing's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mysterious smile.
"It's not that you've slowed down, but that I've sped up; it's not that you've weakened, but that I've become stronger."
Zhao Qing said calmly.
Hua Wuque said with a wry smile, "The effect of the Water Dirty Thunder is to weaken the opponent, but not to harm oneself."
"This move is called Northern Azure Pool. Within the range of the Water Dirty Thunder, it will absorb the life essence of everyone except me."
"Those who enter this area will feel weak in their limbs and numb in their muscles and bones."
"The effect is the same as Ten Fragrance Softening Powder, only the effect is slower and the power is weaker."
