Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Zhao Ningshu’s movement, which he saw as clever and powerful, had been anticipated by Yun Xiao long ago. Therefore, while controlling the Meridian Fire to block Zhao Ningshu’s retreat, he changed his hand technique and precisely tapped Zhao Ningshu’s wrist.

”Cutting Vein?”

Witnessing this somewhat familiar movement, Yin Huan finally recalled the technique Yun Xiao had used in the Righteous Hall of the Shang Family more than a year ago.

The Cutting Vein Technique was a well-known technique, yet to utilize it masterfully, one had to at least reach the Meridian Rushing Realm, capable of externalizing Meridian Qi.

Fortunately, having already learned that Yun Xiao could externalize Meridian Qi, when the Cutting Vein Technique was used at this moment, neither Yin Huan nor Mo Qing was that surprised.

At this moment, Mo Qing’s curiosity about that sudden shabby-clothed youth grew even stronger. It seemed that this youngster might very well deliver a miracle today.

In fact, as soon as Yun Xiao’s middle finger jabbed Zhao Ningshu’s wrist, his performance had already begun. With the externalization of Meridian Qi in the Cutting Vein Technique, Yun Xiao’s movements were as smooth as drifting clouds and flowing water. Starting from the Zhao Family genius’s wrist, he swiftly brushed through several critical acupoints in an instant.

Such a movement was not too foreign to Zhao Ningshu, for he had witnessed Yun Xiao exert such tactics with his own eyes back in Medicine Valley, except at that time, the one who ended up with a disheveled appearance due to Yun Xiao was none other than the eldest of the Cao Family, Cao Luo.

”Fuxue Technique? And it’s even Continuous Brushing!”

Mo Qing’s eyes gleamed not far away. That plainly dressed youth, who was merely at the Peak of Meridian Introduction Realm, not only could cluster Meridian Qi outside his body but also knew the Cutting Vein Technique. Now, he even displayed an extremely profound method within the Fuxue Technique—where did such a person spring from?

”Within the Xuanyue Empire, is there any powerful family with the surname Yun?”

After pondering with effort in her mind for a while, Mo Qing could not recall a Yun-named family within the Xuanyue Empire. Moreover, observing the techniques Yun Xiao was using at the moment, it was clear that his family was not one of those ordinary, medium-sized or small-sized ones.

The Fuxue Technique, much like what members of the Shang Family such as Shang Huiyu had been exposed to back in the day, had been beyond their reach; he only heard the name. However, this technique came as no surprise to top-tier prodigies from the Jade Pot Sect.

Yet, the Fuxue Technique that Yun Xiao was performing now was not the simple Fuxue Technique, but the most difficult to practice within this method -- called ”Continuous Brushing”.

The so-called Continuous Brushing is to strike various acupoints on a person’s body in extremely short succession at an extremely fast speed to overcome and defeat the opponent.

Even for Mo Qing, she could only at most brush past five acupoints on a person’s body, and these five acupoints could not be too far apart, or else there would not be enough time, allowing the opponent to react.

Because she was standing a bit far and Zhao Ningshu was wearing sleeves, Mo Qing could not clearly see how many acupoints Yun Xiao had hit, but it was at least no fewer than her own five, which was the primary reason for her shock.

And the distance from the shoulder to the wrist was not short. Yun Xiao’s speed was indeed very fast, but it was unheard of for Mo Qing that he could identify the acupoints so accurately through the sleeve.

If Yun Xiao were a strong cultivator at the Meridian Union Realm or even the Spirit Vein Realm, then Mo Qing would not be so surprised. But this kid clearly only had a Peak of Meridian Introduction Realm Meridian Qi Cultivation, how did he manage to do this?

Mo Qing and Yin Huan, with unique insights, could see more. However, others such as Tan Yun with Ling Wan and those on-looking talented cultivators at the Meridian Introduction Realm seemed somewhat bewildered, and some even did not know what Yun Xiao meant by poking and prodding on Zhao Ningshu’s arm with his fingers?

The one in the field who experienced the Continuous Brushing Technique most profoundly would naturally be Zhao Ningshu himself. At this moment, he finally understood how Cao Luo had been let off by Yun Xiao back in Medicine Valley that day.
