Chapter 44 Joining Forces
Since Gu Qianbei learned the Golden Light Mantra, it has never been broken by anyone.
On the one hand, he had not encountered any truly superior enemies; on the other hand, his Golden Light Mantra had been cultivated to a high level, making his defensive power extremely strong.
At the very least, martial artists at the Acquired Realm cannot break it.
The full-force attack from Shangguan Yundun was already at the limit of the Innate Realm, and Gu Qianbei's Golden Light Mantra, being at the Acquired Realm, was naturally unable to withstand it.
Even though the golden light shattered, it still completely neutralized the power of Shangguan Yundun's palm strike.
"Um?"
Shangguan Yundun looked shocked, clearly not expecting this outcome.
His full-force palm strike only shattered the opponent's golden light, failing to seriously injure him.
After a brief moment of surprise, Gu Qianbei quickly retreated, pulling Guo Furong away from Shangguan Yundun's attack range.
On the other side, Bai Zhantang seized the opportunity and pointed with one finger!
"Sunflower Acupuncture Technique!"
With both hands gathering momentum and fingers flashing, Bai Zhantang pushed his speed to the limit, wanting to decide the outcome with a single finger strike.
This finger was aimed at Shangguan Yundun's left arm.
call out!
This swift finger strike, combined with Bai Zhantang's agility, caught Shangguan Yundun completely off guard.
Shangguan Yundun never expected that so many masters were hidden in this small inn.
Unable to dodge in time, the meridians in his left hand were sealed, and it immediately drooped down.
Bai Zhantang was about to strike again when he saw Shangguan Yundun quickly dodge and create distance.
"Sunflower Acupuncture Technique! You're the Saint of Thieves!"
Shangguan Yundun secretly channeled his internal energy, trying to break through the acupoints on his left arm, but he couldn't do so instantly.
He immediately realized that the young man in front of him possessed extraordinary finger strength, and was definitely not an ordinary person.
The name of the Thief Saint resounded throughout the martial arts world.
Shangguan Yundun had naturally heard of it.
I originally thought he was just a young kid, but I never expected him to have such strength.
Judging from his cultivation level, he was the same as himself, at the late stage of the Innate Realm.
And that young man in the green robe, although he is only at the Acquired Realm, his defensive power is truly astonishing.
Shangguan Yun immediately suppressed his playful mood, and a hint of apprehension appeared in his eyes.
Bai Zhantang secretly regretted that he hadn't hit the mark with his second finger.
Otherwise, the victory could have been secured directly.
Faced with Shangguan Yundun's exclamation, Bai Zhantang said coldly, "It's me. I'll protect Xiao Guo's life. You should leave now."
"The title of 'Master Thief' alone is not enough to intimidate me, Shangguan Yundun. In my eyes, he's nothing more than a petty thief."
Although his left hand was temporarily unusable, Shangguan Yundun was confident of victory with his right hand and legs.
Bai Zhantang and Gu Qianbei exchanged a glance, knowing that words were useless and that they could only join forces to fight the enemy!
The next moment, however, Shangguan Yundun made the first move!
He stomped his right leg hard on the ground, and the blue brick floor cracked open. Then he kicked out, leaving a trail of afterimages.
Crescent Moon Kick!
The ultimate technique of the Heavenly Crippled Sect!
Their moves are exquisite and lightning-fast, making them difficult to counter.
This kick was aimed directly at Gu Qianbei.
In Shangguan Yundun's opinion, Gu Qianbei was weaker, so the best strategy was to deal with him first and then focus on Bai Zhantang.
Therefore, this kick swept out horizontally, like a steel whip, aiming straight for Gu Qianbei's vital waist and abdomen!
Gu Qianbei dared not be careless. The golden light condensed again, gathering entirely on his right arm. He grabbed his right elbow with his left hand to provide support.
He actually intended to take the kick head-on.
clang!
The crescent-shaped leg slammed heavily onto the golden light on his right arm.
The golden light flickered but did not shatter, clearly indicating that the locally concentrated golden light spell was more powerful in terms of defense.
Even so, the enormous impact still sent Gu Qianbei flying, her back slamming hard against the wall!
A trickle of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and the golden light dimmed even further.
"Manager Gu!"
Guo Furong stepped forward with concern, but Gu Qianbei gestured for her to stay away, then wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
"Is this the strength of a late-stage Innate Realm expert? It's truly astonishing. One strike from him is almost impossible to withstand."
Fortunately, I wasn't confronted one-on-one, otherwise I would have had to wait and see if Phoenix Dance Six Illusions could get me out of there.
Gu Qianbei's mind raced, and then he looked at the battle situation.
The moment he was kicked away, Bai Zhantang immediately used his lightness skill to quickly circle around to Shangguan Yundun's back and launch a surprise attack.
But Shangguan Yundun was incredibly shrewd; even with his left hand restrained, his reaction was still astonishingly fast.
He unleashed a flurry of kicks, his leg movements so dense and impenetrable that Bai Zhantang couldn't get close at all.
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Yundun sneered and his attacks became even more ferocious.
The Crescent Moon Kick is unpredictable and incredibly powerful; each kick is strong enough to shatter rocks and break gold!
Before long, all the tables and chairs in the lobby had been kicked to pieces by his legs.
If Tong Xiangyu saw this, she would definitely be heartbroken.
After dodging the attacks repeatedly, Bai Zhantang's forehead was already covered in sweat.
"This guy's leg technique is incredibly good. I should have targeted his left leg first."
Bai Zhantang was somewhat annoyed, and at that moment Gu Qianbei had already come to his side.
"His attack power is too strong; a head-on confrontation won't work. Let's use our lightness skills to distract him and then attack when the opportunity arises."
After Gu Qianbei finished speaking, Fengwu Liuhuan unleashed its full power!
call out!
Gu Qianbei moved, creating three afterimages.
After breaking through to the mid-stage of the Acquired Realm, his Phoenix Dance Six Illusions also advanced further, now able to create a third afterimage, and his speed also increased.
The next moment, four figures of Gu Qianbei flashed in the hall, indistinguishable from the real ones. In the blink of an eye, they rushed towards Shangguan Yundun, causing his vision to become chaotic and momentarily stunned, leaving him only able to retreat.
Bai Zhantang suddenly lunged forward close to the ground, unleashing the Sunflower Acupoint Strike Technique to its fullest extent. His fingertips were imbued with piercing energy as he precisely struck the acupoints on Shangguan Yundun's legs!
Shangguan Yun was distracted by the Phoenix Dance Six Illusions and was caught off guard when he was struck by Bai Zhantang's finger strike.
However, his finger force did not reach the acupoints, but was instead shaken away by the powerful internal force in his legs!
Bai Zhantang was not giving up and attacked again with a backhand finger.
"court death!"
Shangguan Yun shouted angrily and struck Bai Zhantang, who was standing close by, but Gu Qianbei moved instead!
The Golden Light Mantra erupted once more, transforming into several golden whips that wrapped around Shangguan Yundun's right arm.
With the cooperation of Gu Qianbei and Bai Zhantang, Shangguan Yundun was suddenly caught in a dangerous situation.
Shangguan Yun's expression changed instantly. He didn't have time to think, and his terrifying internal energy immediately erupted!
"Break it!"
The golden whip was instantly shattered by internal force, and the Crescent Moon Kick was kicked towards Bai Zhantang.
Upon seeing this, Bai Zhantang's expression changed, and he quickly retreated to temporarily avoid the attack.
"Xiao Gu, watch out!"
Bai Zhantang exclaimed in surprise when he saw Gu Qianbei still standing in front of Shangguan Yundun.
But then a cruel smile appeared on Shangguan Yundun's lips as he slammed his right palm straight at Gu Qianbei!
"You slippery brat, where do you think you're going to run this time! Die!"
The powerful palm strike was almost upon him, but Gu Qianbei did not dodge. Instead, he raised his right palm, which was covered in golden light, and met the attack head-on.
"You've run out of tricks! Your golden tortoise shell can't withstand my palm strike!"
Shangguan Yun felt victory was in sight, but then he saw a golden sphere suddenly appear on Gu Qianbei's right palm, filled with gold and silver gas.
"What is that?"
Before Shangguan Yundun could react, his palm strike had already shattered him instantly!
