Romance of Dragons and Snakes Chapter 87

At that moment, a gust of wind blew from his left side, notifying him that Liao Junhua was attacking.

Hou! Without hesitation, he stepped forward and brought a single claw hand towards Dai Jun’s abdomen with all his strength.

This break out of Jin had been enough for Wang Chao’s soles to affect the surrounding sand so that it was as if he had stamped it until it had caved in.

Wang Chao’s sleeves fluttered as the skin on his hands grew taut with a metallic swelling. His pores were like needles as it pointed upwards. His knuckles cracked with lightning as if there was a snake from within his bones twisting around.

Dai Jun had been completely spent and so he had no way to defend himself against Wang Chao’s blow.

As he submitted himself to his fate and leapt backwards powerlessly, Dai Jun sucked in a deep breath and relaxed his body to rest.

In a battle, relaxing one’s body was fatal and was more than enough to kill a person ten times overs. But Dai Jun had thrown caution to the wind; if he was a broken jar before, he was now completely shattered.

“If I laxen my body, I die. If I don’t laxen my body, I die. I may as well die in comfort then.” In that instant, Dai Jun didn’t know what to think.

Wang Chao’s figure flickered as he flew forward. In the next moment, he flew forward due to the power of his leg with his shoulder slanted forward. Next, it extended an inch and touched upon the underbelly of Dai Jun.

His five fingers had already touched the cloth of Dai Jun and arrived at the skin.

The Hidden Jin instantly broke out with a soft touch to it.

The Clear Jin in this claw was already at its strongest, so only the Hidden Jin would be able to continue to break out.

When Wang Chao’s fingers brushed against Dai Jun’s skin, Dai Jun had immediately felt a stinging sensation that did not bode well.

With a puffing sound, Dai Jun dropped to the ground with both hands clutching at his underbelly without response. He was like a puppet with his strings cut.

At the same time, Wang Chao fell to the ground as well.

Pa! His hand continued to break out with Hidden Jin as it swung backwards like the movement of a horse’s tail and blocked Liao Junhua’s attack at his back.

Borrowing his forward momentum from before, Wang Chao leapt to the side before turning around 5 meters away. Assuming a fighting stance, he spoke, “Do you truly wish to attack me two on one?”

After taking care of Dai Jun, Wang Chao wasn’t afraid anymore. At last, he had a chance to speak.

Wang Chao had coincidentally touched upon an acupuncture point with his Hidden Jin. With that point pressed, Dai Jun had no longer the ability to fight.

Wang Chao’s eagle claw Hidden Jin had been very shallow. And so because of that, it did not fully pierce through into Dai Jun’s intestines.

However the Hidden Jin had already affected one of the acupuncture points to Dai Jun’s nervous system.

“We had no idea of attacking you at the same time, you misunderstand!” Liao Junhua immediately stopped when he saw Wang Chao stop as well. “It was just meant to be a friendly competition, not a life or death match. But because preventive measures, I could only ask upon my senior disciple to come help. No matter which side was in danger, he would be able to come in at anytime, but I never would have expected to see such a brilliant display of martial arts from you…today is a defeat that I will take…”

“I was afraid that your senior disciple would fight me as well so I had went all out. A match is in the end a ferocious one where no one could control the outcomes.” When Wang Chao saw how straightforward Liao Junhua was, he didn’t move to attack.

A competition was honestly quite dangerous and uncontrollable. After four years of martial arts, Wang Chao had came to realize that when Chen Wuyang kidnapped Cao Jingjing and fought Cao Yi.

Chen Wuyang had originally intended on using a hundred thousand RMB to buy Cao Yi’s services. But because of their nature, the two sides had fought with total annihilation being the result for the Chenshi side.

“Senior Dai, how are you feeling? Ah, your acupuncture point was hit with Hidden Jin!”

Liao Junhua had instantly gone silent when he saw Dai Jun holding his underbelly.

“What a…an amazing…skill….” Dai Jun began to speak with gritted teeth as sweat dripped down his forehead. With each word he spoke, he looked as if he was enduring a tremendous amount of pain.

When Hidden Jin struck an acupuncture point, the person would not move. It was not because he was rendered incapable of doing so, but because in doing so, he would experience a tremendous amount of pain.

It was like twisting the ankle. It was still possible to walk with one, but there would be an excruciating amount of pain from doing so.

The underbelly was linked with the ability to breathe and was connected to the nervous system in many ways. When Wang Chao used his Hidden Jin to strike it, Dai Jun hadn’t spoken a word and remained motionless. Each word he would make would cause a large amount of pain.

Using Hidden Jin to strike the points required chance and precision to feed the soft Hidden Jin into it. With these two conditions, then it would be able to bypass the pores.

Two experts within a match would fight ferociously like the eagle and the hare. Each exchange was fierce but brief. There hadn’t been enough time for either person to stop the fight and so the Hidden Jin had been able to easily strike at the enemy’s inner organs.

But when the Hidden Jin hits the acupuncture points, all it requires is a single touch and the Hidden Jin would be able to affect the nervous system and inflict pain.

Only the highest leveled practitioners would be able to accomplish such a trick.

“Even I don’t know which point I hit. But if it hasn’t injured the inner organs, then there is still a chance to save him.” Wang Chao didn’t wish to resolve matters with Liao Junhua that quickly.

He had only hit the point by chance and not deliberately during the course of battle. But when he came across the point, he had naturally broke out with Hidden Jin.

In a match, breaking out with Hidden Jin was not easy, but when there was a point to hit, what better time was there?

Wang Chao hadn’t studied up on the meridian channels and acupuncture points at all since that was an intensive study. Even if one dedicated their entire life to it, they would never reach perfection with it, so that area of study was reserved to the doctors.

A practitioner had to keep his mind on the grand with simplicity and nimbleness! Wherever the Jin went was wherever the person would go.

If Wang Chao’s martial arts were to reach the Transforming Jin, he would have to understand the complexity of the meridian channels and acupoints. Right now, he hadn’t even attained the spirit and form of all 12 stances. If he were to chase after anything else right now, he would be neglecting the fundamentals which would not bring about improvement.

“Master Wang, do you have any time today? Your skill is quite amazing, leaving the both of us disciples with an understanding of your strength.” Liao Junhua spoke to Wang Chao honestly, “I come today not as an executive of an enterprise, but as a martial artist who follows the same path of ideals. I wish to invite you to my home as a guest. With my senior disciple’s acupoint pressed, he is in a thorny situation. Let us both study to see what method could be used to treat him? Otherwise, I can only send him to see my master in the United States.”

Wang Chao thought for a moment before nodding his head, “Fine!”
