Chapter 283 Ninth Layer Gang Qi (Second Update)
Fang Yu's eyes were piercing.
He looked up.
"Combined Martial Technique?"
As the name suggests, it's a martial technique that is used jointly in combat, demanding perfect harmony and fearlessness among the users.
The power unleashed by four people was more than ten times that of a single person!
Unexpectedly, the four Great Elders still possessed such terrifying martial techniques!
...
How many more cards and secrets does the Lu Family hold? If not for this, Fang Yu would have already taken the Dragon Roar Sword and gone on a killing spree in Ze State!
Four palms seemed to enlarge in an instant.
Inner Strength was discharged from the palms, causing ripples to spread out!
"The combined martial technique of four people has the power of the Eighth Layer Middle Stage! Unbelievable!" Fang Yu marveled in his heart.
This was the reason why the Lu Family was so powerful.
"It's too late for regrets now!"
Lu Tianxun's palm strike was like Mount Tai pressing down, overwhelmingly crushing everything in its path.
And the other three Great Elders.
A cold sneer crossed Fang Yu's lips, and the Dragon Roar Sword in his hand thrummed loudly, the wind howling.
Dada dada.
Dada dada—
He quickly retreated first.
The overwhelming palm strikes swiftly followed.
Fang Yu suddenly stood firm.
He stomped with his left foot, then his right foot.
Bang bang—
Two deep footprints were imprinted.
Buzz, buzzing... The Dragon Roar Sword trembled even more fiercely.
"It's time for you to witness the true power of Martial Arts Ninth Layer!"
Martial Arts Ninth Layer?
The four Great Elders were all stunned.
But could the combined martial technique be stopped once it had been set in motion? Impossible!
In a flash, the four palms struck over.
Fang Yu held Dragon Roar horizontally in front of him...
Boom!
All four hit the Dragon Roar Sword.
Using the sword to block.
Under normal circumstances, this Soul Suppressing Palm could directly send a person flying and kill them instantly!
But...
Fang Yu stood firm like Mount Tai, immovable.
The deep footprints seemed to anchor him in place, his whole body exuding a calm aura.
"What's going on?"
The four Great Elders of the Lu Family looked shocked, staring at the Dragon Roar Sword they had struck.
The long sword was a deep blue color, shining in the sunlight, occasionally flashing with terrifying blue rays. What... is this?
Buzz, buzzing... The blade kept trembling, buzzing loudly.
"Gang Qi!"
"Nine Layers of Heaven, Gang Qi!"
"Not good!"
"Retreat!"
Not many knew that the Inner Strength of Martial Arts Ninth Layer could transform into Gang Qi. But that didn't mean none knew. The four Great Elders, having all read the Lu Family's scriptures, were aware that Gang Qi was a hallmark of Martial Arts Ninth Layer.
The four Great Elders were profoundly shocked.
No wonder their combined martial technique couldn't shake Fang Yu at all.
Martial Arts, Ninth! Layer! Heaven!
If not now, when else would they retreat!
"It's too late!"
Fang Yu bellowed, and the Inner Essence inside his Dantian, as if summoned, suddenly unleashed tremendous power... like a calm lake struck by a giant stone, causing huge ripples.
Boom—
The Inner Essence erupted.
The four Great Elders' faces paled with fright, blasted away by the overwhelming force.
All four were flung backwards through the air.
"The situation has changed! Retreat!"
"Retreat!"
These were the four Great Elders of the Lu Family. On the surface, their power appeared to be only at Martial Arts Sixth Layer. But having lived for so long, they were among the shrewdest, knowing how to preserve themselves in complex situations and combat!
This time was no exception.
Realizing something was amiss, they decisively retreated.
They were no match for a master of Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven!
"Thinking of leaving? My sword might not agree!"
Boom!
He stamped his feet.
Fang Yu's body shot forward like an arrow off its bow, chasing after the four.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...
"Ninth Sword, Thunder Light!"
Inner Essence mingled with the faint blue radiance.
"One Sword Immortal."
Fang Yu gripped his long sword, his speed suddenly doubling!
The weakening effect of the array instantly dissipated!
Witnessing this, Lu Tianxun was greatly shocked:
"Fusion Martial Technique!"
"It's actually a Fusion Martial Technique!"
The confidence of the four elders to escape vanished in an instant!
The power of the Beidou Seven Stars Formation was insufficient to affect Fang Yu at his peak.
Unlike a Combined Martial Technique, which is completed by multiple people and requires coordination, a Fusion Martial Technique is done by one person. It involves merging multiple Martial Techniques mastered by oneself and executing them simultaneously to form a new mode of attack… This is not merely a simple sum of one plus one! A Fusion Martial Technique demands extremely high control over oneself; a single misstep could cause backlash, but once successful, its power is greatly magnified!
For Fang Yu, the sword moves of Rain Slash were thoroughly ingrained, perfected to the utmost.
One Sword Immortal is a Martial Technique from the fifth sword of Rain Slash, characterized by its speed!
Speed coupled with the power of Thunder Light!
This was Fang Yu's confidence!
…
Seeing the lightning-like deadly sword strike, Lu Tianxun, who was behind him, trembled all over.
At that moment, his mind went blank.
Dodge?
Too late!
Resist?
Could he withstand it?
This sword, with Thunder Light, seemed to claim the very creation of heaven and earth, possessing the momentum of the sun, moon, and stars.
Fear appeared in Lu Tianxun's eyes…for the first time in his life, he felt terror!
Instinctively, he bellowed:
"Three Elders, aid me!"
"Three Elders, help me block him!"
"If I die, you will die too!"
This sword clearly had the capacity to slay all four of them!
Lu Tianzong, Lu Tianhao, Lu Tianfang… immediately halted, turned back, and glared.
"Join forces to block it!"
In an instant, Lu Tianfang stood behind Lu Tianxun, his palms supporting his back, bolstering him with Inner Strength.
Snap, snap… the other two also arrived behind them.
The four formed a line, each supporting the back of the person in front. Inner Strength pushed forward…
"Beidou!"
The power of the Soul Suppressing Palm almost reached its maximum under the enhancement of the Beidou Seven Stars Formation.
Simultaneously—
Fang Yu, holding the Dragon Roar Sword, approached like a comet.
Sizzle.
Sizzle, sizzle—
"Ah!"
Pfft!!
The Dragon Roar Sword halted between Lu Tianxun's palms.
The blade still vibrating.
Fang Yu was slightly startled, then said in a deep voice: "The combined strength of four, plus the enhancement of the array, actually managed external release of Inner Strength! Not bad, not bad…"
The two parties were merely a sword's distance apart.
Fang Yu, holding the sword with one hand, only needed to step forward to pierce Lu Tianxun's chest.
Lu Tianxun was also full of shock, so mighty were the Martial Arts Ninth Layer.
He exerted all his strength to keep the Dragon Roar Sword from advancing, sweating profusely and trembling:
"Lu Yu! It was my Lu Family who wronged you in the past, today's battle has destroyed the Law Enforcement Hall! Can we not end our grievances with this battle?"
"End our grievances?"
Fang Yu's eyes chilled, "You harmed my biological parents and instigated the Jin Family and Zhao Family to slaughter my Fang Family… For these hundred lives, what do you offer to wipe the slate clean?"
"You—"
Lu Tianxun gritted his teeth, "Don't be too greedy! If you want to kill me, it's not enough—"
With a spread of his hands, the four elders' Inner Strength pushed the Dragon Roar Sword back half an inch…
A trace of coldness crossed Fang Yu's lips: "Is that so—"
His left hand raised, pushing forward.
Buzz, buzz, buzz—
"Impossible!"
"Why, the release of Gang Qi! Impossible—" Lu Tianxun's eyes widened.
Bang!
The Dragon Roar Sword broke through the Inner Strength barrier of the four elders, aiming at Lu Tianxun's chest.
With a clang, the Dragon Roar Sword halted again.
"Hmm?" Fang Yu frowned.
This sword, filled with robust Inner Essence, should have pierced directly through his chest—what blocked it?
