Chapter 234 Locked Yang Body
The situation for Xiao Yun here is still quite dire.
The hand blades of the Hang Brothers strike with increasing ferocity, their powerful momentum weaving an impenetrable net aimed at trapping Xiao Yun and crushing him to pieces.
Fortunately, Xiao Yun is agile, dodging and leaping to avoid Qi Jin's sharp attacks. Although he appears somewhat overwhelmed to outsiders, his heart begins to calm down gradually.
The power of a Qi Jin master lies in the gathering of energy. The Qi Jin within their body converges in the eight extraordinary meridians, resonating with the air outside to form a lethal aura.
However, if one gathers energy for too long, they must take a breath, just like a person submerged underwater; after a while, they must surface for air. Otherwise, the pressure will build up in their chest, leading to suffocation.
Thus, Xiao Yun does not rush to counterattack; he waits for them to take a breath before striking back swiftly.
He cannot help but admire the endurance of these two Qi Jin masters. For over an hour now, they have yet to take a breath. Mud Horse, even a turtle would have surfaced for air by now!
In Xiao Yun's Storage Ring, there are many bone-piercing nails prepared by Little Bell. She said that there are always stronger people out there; given Xiao Yun's current cultivation level, when facing someone more powerful than himself, it would be wise not to engage directly but rather use hidden weapons.
In fact, that night in Panlong Gorge's Spirit Flower Grove, Xiao Yun had already made significant progress in his cultivation. He has now entered the human-level phase of the Seven-Colored Heart Pearl Technique and can fully contend with peak-level Qi Jin masters.
Even if he cannot use wind balls or fireballs, he has many other methods at his disposal.
However, he has refrained from using them. Now that he has entered the human-level phase, Xiao Yun aims to become even stronger by employing his newly learned absorption technique. As the Hang Brothers continuously unleash their Qi Jin outward, he absorbs the energy emanating from them while evading their blade-like attacks, transforming it into energy within his own body.
The Qi Root was anchored within the Dantian of the Qi Jin master, but once the Qi Jin was used to kill, the Qi Root would continuously disperse outward along with the Qi Jin. It was only during moments of inhalation that the Qi Root would swiftly return to the Dantian of the Qi Jin master.
However, the Hang Brothers had no idea of Xiao Yun's intentions, nor did they realize that this peculiar individual before them could absorb others' Qi Roots. They were astonished that he could evade their palm strikes of Qi Jin attack time and again for such an extended period.
In the Ancient Martial Arts Sect, even those with exceptional skills found it difficult to evade the continuous assaults from the two brothers for so long.
If they continued to hold on like this, the brothers would soon run out of breath; their most pressing need was to catch their breath.
They exchanged glances and jumped back, but just as they were about to take a breath—
Whoosh...
A flurry of piercing needles came rushing toward them like a rain of flowers.
With a cry, the brothers attempted to leap away, but it was too late. Dozens of needles struck their bodies, sealing their Meridians in an instant.
Their Qi Roots were completely sealed outside their bodies, unable to re-enter.
If a Qi Jin master could not retrieve their Qi Roots into their Dantian, no matter how high their internal Qi was, they could not cast it out.
"You..." The two brothers stared at Xiao Yun in sheer terror, momentarily frozen in place.
They could not comprehend how Xiao Yun had acted so quickly to seal their Meridians and why they felt no trace of their own outwardly released Qi Roots nearby.
This...
Was this a situation akin to a Divine Horse?
Despair...
A master of Qi Jin, once detached from their energy roots, can easily be dealt with even by the most ordinary practitioner.
"Hahaha..."
Xiao Yun looked at the stunned Hang Brothers and laughed loudly, "What's wrong? Are you not moving?"
"You... you..." The Hang Brothers stared at Xiao Yun in panic, unable to utter a complete sentence.
Due to their energy roots being unable to return to the Dantian, the Qi Jin within them was in chaos, causing great shock to their meridians. It felt as if they were being sliced apart inside by a knife.
Thud!
The brothers fell to the ground simultaneously, blood streaming from their seven orifices as they died.
In their despair, they severed their meridians and chose death.
This left Xiao Yun greatly astonished; why would these two choose to commit suicide?
In the distance, an onlooker excitedly shouted into his phone, "Hello, Criminal Investigation Team? When will you give me the reward of ten thousand dollars? I’m telling you, there’s a new situation at Top Scholar Lane near Star-Moon Bridge. One of those guys is incredibly strong; he actually knocked down both of his attackers! Uh, it seems like they're lying on the ground and not moving at all..."
In the office of the Criminal Investigation Team, Ouyang Bing felt a surge of joy upon hearing the report from the young Criminal Police Officer. Wow, this guy is amazing...
Long live this beast!
Uh, just as Ouyang Bing was caught up in excitement, he suddenly felt a dark cloud pass overhead—Qing Shui Street...
"All of you, take off your uniforms!" Ouyang Bing pointed at the several Criminal Police Officers standing in front of her and shouted.
The Criminal Police Officers were momentarily stunned. "Captain, this is..."
Today, Captain Ouyang was acting unusually. She had just been thinking about men, and now she wanted them to strip. Did she want...
"Take them off!" Ouyang Bing shouted again.
The short team member quickly responded, "I'll do it!"
Bang!
As soon as the short officer took off his shirt, he received a hard slap from Ouyang Bing on his head.
"Damn it, who told you to take off everything?" The fierce beauty captain glared with wide eyes.
Ouyang Bing's face turned cold as she said, "Something similar to what just happened on Top Scholar Lane is likely to occur on Qing Shui Street soon. Sister commands you all to change into plain clothes and go there to observe. No matter what happens, report to me immediately!"
It was strange; in such a dangerous situation, the police couldn't respond directly and could only disguise themselves as civilians and stand by. What was going on?
Tonight was indeed bizarre!
One of the detectives foolishly asked, "Is there a reward for this...?"
"A reward? This is work!" Ouyang Bing was furious. Ten thousand yuan just vanished in an instant. If it weren't for saving some money, would she need to send them out?
As they were about to leave, Ouyang Bing reminded them again, "Remember, keep it confidential. Don't let anyone realize you are criminal police officers!"
Xiao Yun looked at the two people lying on the ground, shook his head, and sighed inwardly. It seemed that everything was going wrong tonight as he headed to meet the Beautiful Hall Master.
He got into the car, started the engine, and drove towards Qing Shui Street.
As soon as he entered Qing Shui Street, Xiao Yun was stunned. He noticed a figure standing in front of him like an iron tower, blocking his path.
What on earth is going on tonight? It seems that not only is everything going wrong, but it’s also very likely that today next year will be my death anniversary!
He could tell at a glance that this guy in front of him was at least ten times more capable than the two he encountered on Top Scholar Lane.
With a gaze as sharp as a sword and his Qi Mechanism radiating outward, the air around him seemed to ripple as if stimulated by his Qi Mechanism, creating circles of waves with faint sounds of sonic booms.
This kind of Aura cannot be seen with the naked eye, but Xiao Yun could perceive it. Each person's Qi Mechanism varied in strength and color.
An ordinary person's Qi Mechanism often reflects their physical fitness, personality, and intelligence; whereas for cultivators, the Qi Mechanism indicates their martial prowess. The stronger the Qi Mechanism, the more intense the Aura formed around them, creating an atmosphere of killing intent.
To Xiao Yun's surprise, the man in front of him appeared to be in his forties yet was still a Locked Yang Body.
A Locked Yang Body refers to certain martial men who lock away their vital energy to prevent it from leaking out. They avoid women throughout their lives and pursue martial arts to an almost insane degree.
Typically, such individuals have eccentric personalities, are cold-blooded and ruthless, dislike making friends, and only recognize enemies. If one were to describe such a person’s cruelty in common terms, it would be akin to someone who grits their teeth even when passing gas.
Where did all these strange experts come from tonight?
Feeling quite frustrated, Xiao Yun stopped the car and lazily got out. In an instant, he felt a suffocating threat emanating from the man's Aura.
Uh, at the same time, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen.
Buzzing, Xiao Yun felt overwhelmed as he realized he had been poisoned.
He never expected that while absorbing the energy roots of those two individuals, the energy roots contained a strong toxin.
Clearly, those two had carelessly consumed numerous pills while cultivating Qi Jin, and these pills were mixed with certain enhancers that could rapidly increase one's power.
He slightly closed his eyes and, from the hints in his mind's intelligence circle, he learned that this enhancer was made from Bone-Breaking Grass.
Bone-Breaking Grass is a highly toxic plant; once ingested by a person or animal, their bones will turn to powder in no time. The juice extracted from this grass does indeed help enhance certain energies, but it is entirely harmful to humans.
Could it be that those two were inherently resistant to poison?
Calm down, he must stay calm!
Xiao Yun took a deep breath...
"Hey buddy, they say good dogs don't block the way. Why are you standing in my path for no reason?" Xiao Yun forced a calm demeanor and smiled mockingly. The Pinnacle of Elegance has been updated.
