Chapter 54

The two masters of Yihua Palace no longer spoke, simultaneously unleashing the true qi field of Mingyu Gong. This time, it was no longer as monotonous as before; the field vibrated the air, producing a thunderous sound, like a tide that rose and fell suddenly!

The two forces combined, generating infinite variations!

The onlookers, sensing the terrifying suction, retreated even further. If someone with weaker strength were to be caught in the true qi field, they would be torn apart without even coming close!

But Xiao Ran's physical strength was incredibly formidable, and with the enhancement of true qi, even a real elephant could not match him!

Although the two sisters of Yihua Palace had never fought together before, they had grown up and trained together, making them one of the most默契 (cooperative) pairs in the world!

Lianxing Palace Master lunged forward, her long sleeves swirling like chaotic clouds toward Xiao Ran.

Despite her slight inconvenience in movement, her agility and grace were so exquisite that the audience could only describe her as a fairy!

At the same time, Yaoyue Palace Master slowly pushed out a palm. Although her palm was moving forward, it generated a powerful suction force that held Xiao Ran, not just attacking head-on but creating yin-yang changes in the suction and expulsion!

The two sisters of Yihua Palace had improved after just one confrontation with Xiao Ran, using the true qi field with unparalleled skill and no longer simply expelling it outward!

Xiao Ran sighed inwardly, truly admiring their genius. Battling these geniuses was indeed a great pressure!

But pressure is also motivation. On the path of martial arts, rigorous practice and actual combat are both indispensable!

The Phoenix Eye fully activated, Xiao Ran's pupils turned into a pair of blood-red vertical slits, extremely eerie!

Although he could still only vaguely see how the true qi operated within his body, he could clearly perceive how the true qi fields of the two Yihua Palace masters were distributed, as if observing the lines on his palm!

Thus, these immature true qi fields could not trouble Xiao Ran at all!

He moved like a fish, taking advantage of the ebb and flow of the field, moving freely and seemingly unaffected!

In an instant, Xiao Ran's long sword struck Lianxing Palace Master's sleeves, producing a deafening explosion, while his left hand delivered a powerful strike, clashing with Yaoyue Palace Master!

Yihua Palace's martial techniques were known for their complexity, but Xiao Ran's sword and palm techniques had reached the pinnacle of variation, so Yaoyue Palace Master chose to abandon finesse and directly confront Xiao Ran's true qi changes!

Xiao Ran's true qi was more substantial than Yaoyue Palace Master's, so he was willing to engage in a direct clash!

Yan Nan Tian and the withered old man watched as if they had drunk a fine wine. Yan Nan Tian sighed, "Dividing his attention and controlling his true qi with such precision, Brother Xiao's control over true qi is truly awe-inspiring!"

The withered old man also sighed, "His sword technique targets the gaps in the true qi flow, a level of insight unmatched in the world! Could it be that Master Xiao has condensed some special eye technique? Otherwise, I cannot imagine anyone in the world having such insight!"

Rumbling...

With his left palm and right sword, Xiao Ran faced the two strongest opponents of the era without any disadvantage.

Yaoyue Palace Master was even shaken by Xiao Ran's attack, about to retreat, but suddenly a pair of black-lighted, white jade-like true qi wings grew from her back!

With a flap, she turned retreat into advance, charging forward again!

She had condensed the true qi wings after hearing Xiao Ran's explanation once. Although the wings were far from perfect and could not carry her to fly, they added more variations and possibilities to her movements!

Xiao Ran's movements became even faster, pushing the Exorcising Evil True Qi to its limit, creating a series of illusions with his movements, fiercely attacking Lianxing Palace Master!

He abandoned Yaoyue Palace Master and focused on attacking Lianxing, his sword transforming into a myriad of sword shadows, striking her sleeve defense circle countless times!

The clash of true qi produced a thunderous rumble!

His movements were so fast that Yaoyue Palace Master could not catch up, watching helplessly as he circled around Lianxing Palace Master. In just a few breaths, Lianxing Palace Master's defense was on the verge of collapse!

After all, Lianxing Palace Master's legs were somewhat inconvenient, making her movements less agile than Yaoyue's, and she struggled against Xiao Ran's speed-based tactics!

Yaoyue Palace Master bit her lower lip, her right hand continuously pointing, launching sword qi at Xiao Ran!

But Xiao Ran seemed to have eyes on his back, his body incredibly flexible, always dodging Yaoyue Palace Master's sword light from impossible angles!

Those with weaker strength could not even see the three people's movements clearly, only seeing several figures flashing, causing dizziness and vomiting upon prolonged observation!

Xiao Ran's waist suddenly contracted to the thickness of a woman's thigh, dodging Yaoyue Palace Master's sword light. With a tearing sound, he actually cut through Lianxing Palace Master's sleeves, breaking through her defense, and his long sword pointed directly at her right arm!

Lianxing Palace Master ignored Xiao Ran's sword, pointing a finger at his Zhongtan acupoint. Even if Xiao Ran struck her, she would also hit him!

But at that moment, a white jade-like light appeared on Lianxing Palace Master's body, a sign of her protective true qi being externalized as a protective true qi field. Although it had not yet formed a true qi armor, it was already unbreakable, protecting her body!

She had a protective true qi field, but Xiao Ran could not even condense a protective true qi field outside his body!

Exchanging injuries with Xiao Ran, he would undoubtedly be the one to lose!

At the same time, a smile flashed across Yaoyue Palace Master's face, and she shouted, "Explode!"

The sword qi she had launched immediately exploded, transforming into a torrent of true qi, sealing off Xiao Ran's escape route!

She could actually detonate her own emitted sword qi!

This coordination, in terms of timing,默契 (cooperation), and martial talent, earned the two Yihua Palace masters a perfect score! This move placed Xiao Ran in an unprecedentedly dangerous situation, making him sense the threat of death!

At this moment, Xiao Ran roared, his internal blood and qi reaching their peak, his bones cracking, and his muscles bulging like coiled dragons, instantly transforming into a towering giant taller than Yan Nan Tian!

After the third level of body training, a person's bones were like fine steel, extremely hard and elastic, capable of extending and contracting at will!

Everyone was stunned by Xiao Ran's transformation!

But Xiao Ran did not stop at all. His extended arm struck Lianxing Palace Master's right arm first, piercing through the gaps in her immature protective true qi field and piercing her arm!

Lianxing Palace Master was in excruciating pain, her face drenched in sweat. The condensed true qi in her finger dissipated, but it still struck Xiao Ran's Zhongtan acupoint!

Normally, such a strike, even with reduced power, would be unbearable for Xiao Ran!

But Xiao Ran had learned the technique of shifting meridians and acupoints from the secret manual of the Five Greats in the underground palace. He had also learned the method of shifting meridians and acupoints from his fellow disciples, combining it with his own knowledge to create a technique called Cuo Xing Jue!

Even Ouyang Feng's reverse Nine Yin technique for shifting meridians and acupoints might not be as miraculous as Xiao Ran's self-created Cuo Xing Jue!

Instantly shifting the acupoint, Lianxing Palace Master only hit his flesh, and the force did not injure his acupoint!

Subsequently, Xiao Ran's extremely large body suddenly shrank to the size of a twelve- or thirteen-year-old child. Before the audience could react, the true qi from the sword qi explosion only grazed his hair!

Then, Xiao Ran's body sprang forward, dodging Yaoyue Palace Master's palm in her astonishment!

Simultaneously, he unleashed the powerful Toad Technique, almost expelling all his true qi, colliding with Yaoyue Palace Master's chest, causing her to spit out blood!

Then, Xiao Ran's body returned to its normal size. His black hair flew wildly, his clothes first burst from his expansion and then were shredded by the residual force of the sword qi explosion, leaving him completely naked, revealing his extremely muscular physique!

He looked like a divine being descending from heaven, awe-inspiring and majestic!
