Chapter Thirty-Nine: Strong Legs

  Ma Qianjun had been through countless battles for twenty years, but he had only met an opponent like Liu Suizhuan who was both troublesome and tenacious two or three times. Therefore, Ma Qianjun adjusted his scattered breath while coldly smiling: "Miss Gu, didn't you know that she just went through a calamity of thunder and lightning?"

  Ma Qianjun, despite his efforts to squeeze into the Xiu Zhen family's ranks at all costs, knew very little about the Xian world, and even learned the name of this Silken Thunderbolt Tribulation from Gu Yinghua.

  He said that, and it instead stirred up Liu Su-Yun's fighting spirit: "Master Ma, because of this I even more cannot die before you! As long as I'm alive, Miss Gu still has hope!"

  He repeated his vow: "I will use everything I have to keep Miss Gu safe!"

  "Good!" Ma Qianjun blurted out in anger: "Then let this old man tell you what the Heavenly Snake Mystical Spirit Hand is!"

  He was unaware that during this brief exchange of words with Lian Zhanglong, a heaven-shaking and earth-shattering change had taken place on Liu Suizhen's body.

  Before, in the countless collisions with Ma Qianjun, Liu Suoyun could be said to have been battered to the point of being covered in bruises, unable to even stand steadily, his qi and blood churning, his face as pale as gold paper. However, the moment he got this brief respite, the warmth on his forehead immediately transformed into a surging torrent of heat.

  This hot flow quickly spread from the forehead to every spiritual vein, every bone and every pore of the body. If it was a hot flow at first, it soon became warm and sunny spring sunshine, just like the body heat and smoothness that came from behind Gu Yinghua's back. Liu Suoyun felt refreshed all over, and the person who was about to be beaten to death by Ma Qianjun suddenly had a full state of mind.

  After the warm current passed, it was heart-wrenching pain. In an instant, it was again that warm spring sunshine. Liu Suiyun felt he didn't know how many rounds he had walked on the edge of life and death, but most importantly, although his appearance was still unbearable, the countless wounds inside him were now recovering at a surprising speed.

  What made Liu Suoyun even more relieved was that after the spring sun shone all over his body, the extremely fast cultivation method of Yuanyuan Huang Lei's Zhentian God Record also operated at an astonishing speed, even exceeding Liu Suoyun's usual operating speed by tens of times. The precipitate accumulated from the gas, blood and soul absorbed into the body after beheading was burned out all at once.

  Especially that Xuan Shui Jun's spiritual blood condensed into a single drop of essence, now at an astonishing speed transformed back into a thriving vitality. Liu Su Yun felt that although he was not in his best state, during the brief moment when Ma Qian Jun stopped attacking, his injuries had recovered by at least 50-60%.

  Liu Suiyun knew that this was definitely the credit of Gu Yinghua's single finger, although he didn't know where that single finger came from. However, since Gu Yinghua had mobilized his spiritual energy to such an extent that it attracted a thunderbolt, one could imagine its extraordinary nature. Therefore, Ma Qianjun said to restart the offensive, and he was already clenching his fists, eager to settle with Ma Qianjun as soon as possible so that he could go back and take care of Gu Yinghua!

  Although Gu Yinghua said it was no big deal and that the little incident of being struck by lightning was nothing to worry about, he had never been as concerned about Gu Yinghua as he was now.

  Heavenly Snake Dark Spirit Hand!

  Ma Qianjun has launched a fierce attack, compared to the initial offensive, Ma Qianjun's current attack is less fierce and more mysterious, even Liu Suizhen can smell the scent of Xuan Shuijun on him.

  "Bang!"

  Liu Su Yun exerted great effort in a single strike, already intercepting Ma Qian Jun's Heaven Snake Mystical Hand that was sliding over in mid-air. However, his face sank, and he felt as if the punch he had just thrown was like hitting cotton, completely powerless. Meanwhile, Ma Qian Jun coldly laughed, and his Heaven Snake Mystical Hand inexplicably slid out from under Liu Su Yun's intercepting fist, shooting towards Liu Su Yun's abdomen.

  He had absolute confidence in his own momentum, directly choosing to fight head-on, with the intention of blasting Liu Suoyun to death. Unexpectedly, Liu Suoyun's entanglement was beyond his imagination, and he could only take out the Tian She Xuan Ling that he had been suppressing.

  The Heavenly Snake's mysterious spirit transformed from nothingness to reality, and directly smashed towards Liu Suizhen's abdomen. This punch was so fast that it reached the extreme, with the swirling fist wind carrying a sharp whistling sound. Liu Suizhen's body, which was already unstable, was blown away by this sudden gust of wind, causing him to stumble. Ma Qianjun felt triumphant in his heart, thinking that if this punch landed, even if Liu Suizhen had ten lives, he would lose nine of them.

  Just as he was feeling proud of his thought, he heard a "peng" sound, and Liu Suizhen's left leg unexpectedly kicked out, colliding with Tian She Xuanling's hand, and actually broke through Tian She Xuanling's defense. Both people let out a loud hum, and each retreated two or three steps back.

  "Damn you! Die!" Ma Qianjun's mouth emitted a strange "hiss hiss hiss" sound, his movements becoming increasingly mysterious and sinister. The Tian She Xuan Ling in his hand was sometimes real and sometimes illusory, often transforming into unbelievable changes in mid-air as it struck at the spot on Liu Su Yun's body that would be fatal.

  The Heaven and Spirit Palm may have many variations, but the astonishing power hidden within is real. Even just a whirl of palm wind can make ordinary people stumble, and if Liu Su Yun were to be hit by even one casual strike of the Heaven and Spirit Palm, he would be powerless to turn back.

  Liu Suizhen's counterattack was getting faster and faster, with his fists and feet moving in tandem, his movements becoming increasingly swift. His entire being was radiating an intense excitement, and no matter how many mysterious changes Ma Qianjun made, Liu Suizhen would still land a lightning-fast punch to shatter him.

  Liu Suiyun had already discovered the greatest weakness of Tianshe Xuanling's hand, that was Ma Qianjun lacked speed, no, Ma Qianjun didn't have any speed.

  Indeed, the Heavenly Snake Mystical Hand is incredibly versatile and each strike contains a hint of boundless power, but the one wielding it, Ma Qianjun, is ultimately just a Yuan Dragon martial artist. The result of crossing three realms is that not only does Ma Qianjun lack true boundless power, he also lacks sufficient speed.

  At the time Ma Qianjun blasted out a punch, Liu Suizhen could blast out two punches, three punches or even more. Even if Ma Qianjun had the most mysterious changes, he was still directly blasted by Liu Suizhen's fast fist.

  If it were truly a thunderous momentum, Liu Suizhen would not dare to harden his edge. In the face of such absolute crushing power, all of Liu Suizhen's little tricks would be directly blown into minced meat.

  But this was just Ma Qianjun borrowing the power of Xuan Shuijun to make a super-shrunken version, Liu Suoyun was blown away with his blood boiling and in great pain, but his state was getting better and better, more and more excited, his fighting spirit was also higher and higher, from time to time he could still let out one or two whistling calls.

  Although under the relentless attack of Tian She Xuan Ling, Liu Suizhen couldn't even deploy his signature move, but Ji Yuan Huang Lei's body was circulating one cycle after another, and the previously refined Qi, Blood, and Soul were transformed into a boundless hot flow within his body with Gu Yinghua's mysterious and unpredictable guidance, constantly repairing every wound, bringing Liu Suizhen endless power.

  Ma Qianjun, however, was increasingly shocked by the battle. He didn't know what kind of medicine Liu Suoyun had taken wrong, but clearly ten Liu Suoyuns put together should not have been able to withstand his Tian She Xuan Ling's hand. Yet the Liu Suoyun in front of him seemed like an indestructible monster, repeatedly surpassing his imagined limits.

  Liu Suiyun's movements not only didn't change shape or slow down due to the repeated strange collisions, but instead became more and more swift and fierce. Tian She Xuanling's hands were quick with clever moves, but after all, it was just a hand technique. Liu Suiyun's fists and kicks, on the other hand, gained a considerable advantage.

  "Bang!"

  Ma Qianjun's snake-shaped monster hand collided with Liu Suizhen's cutting fist once again. After a dull explosion, both people couldn't retreat backward, but this time Ma Qianjun didn't wait to steady himself and had already launched a Tian She Xuan Ling hand towards Liu Suizhen's chest.

  Liu Suiyun didn't hesitate, and immediately threw a punch at Ma Qianjun's snake hand. However, the moment they collided, he felt utterly powerless, as if his fist had struck cotton. Ma Qianjun's snake hand wrapped around him in an inexplicable manner, already aiming for Liu Suiyun's temple.

  What a willow following the cloud, not flustered or chaotic, left leg kicked and stepped, the heavenly snake's mysterious spirit moved even faster, but ultimately still collided with Ma Qianjun's snake hand. However, in the past, Liu Suoyun's fierce wind kick would have forced Ma Qianjun to fight to a mutual defeat, but this time it landed on soft silk, completely without effect.

  "Huh?"

  Liu Suiyun was shocked at once, based on his past experience of fighting to the death, Ma Qianjun's Tian She Xuan Ling hand could have changed its move at most once, how could this fierce and unmatched kick be like kicking in the air?

  Ma Qianjun's eyes, however, revealed a vicious and triumphant expression. Tian She Xuanling's hands wrapped around Lie Feng's leg and made a swift turn, waiting for Liu Suoyun to slow down before pouncing on his neck again. Fortunately, Liu Suoyun reacted quickly and countered with a punch that collided with Tian She Xuanling's hand.

  "Bang!"

  This time, the decisive blow finally forced Ma Qianjun and Liu Suizhen to collide with all their might. Liu Suizhen couldn't help but feel a little relieved, although he didn't know how Ma Qianjun would have another chance to change his move, but surely this time he could force Ma Qianjun back.

  His smile had not yet bloomed when it solidified, he only felt that Ma Qianjun's strength in the hands of Tian She Xuanling was slightly inferior to his own, and he stood still, directly pushing Ma Qianjun back, but Ma Qianjun must have a killer move afterwards.

  Due to the miscalculation of the force, Liu Suizhen not only failed to react in time but also almost lost his balance, and his body swayed. However, he saw Ma Qianjun being knocked back by the force, but just as Ma Qianjun flew backward, a kick with the power of thunder had already been launched towards Liu Suizhen's lower body with fierce killing intent.

  What a ruthless Ma Qianjun! Since he launched the Tian She Xuan Ling Shou, he has exchanged over 200 moves with Liu Suizhen, using only his hands to fight him to a stalemate. Never before had anyone seen any leg or foot techniques in this Tian She Xuan Ling Shou of his, until now when he finally unleashed his killing move!

  This kick was as fast as lightning, with a momentum like a big axe, strong and unstoppable. Liu followed the cloud and had nowhere to hide!
