The heavy palm shadows cascaded down like mountains, layer upon layer.
Fierce waves of air surged tumultuously, forming torrents of overwhelming Qi Force that gushed towards Wang Yuyan with the intensity of thousands of troops thundering forward, threatening to crush her under countless iron hooves.
The sudden change occurred so swiftly that even Wang Yuyan had not reacted before she found herself enveloped in darkness, her spirit intimidated and her breathing stifled.
The terrifying Qi Force had shrouded all directions, like a prison from which there was no escape, even the "shush-shush" sound of the Qi Force cutting through the air could be heard beside her ears.
Jiang Dali’s roar seemed to come from a distant place.
Even his voice seemed elongated.
However, Wang Yuyan knew it was an illusion, not that Jiang Dali’s voice had stretched, but rather that in the relative sensation of speed, her Spiritual Sense had become disoriented.
In that instant, she made the wisest and most suitable choice under the circumstances, transforming her body’s energy.
Not on this shore, nor on the other!
Her hands simultaneously formed two Nine-character Mantra Handprints; the left hand forming the Outer Lion Seal, using the Vajrasattva Mantra to break the severe mental and physical repression she was facing.
With her right hand, she performed the Outer Binding Seal, using the Vajrasattva Universal Virtue Dharma Body Mantra to release the troubles and even spy into Helian Ba’s Divine Intent and thoughts.
Almost immediately after, the heavy palm shadows struck her with a speed she absolutely couldn’t defend against, falling upon her body.
The moment the palm shadows struck, they transformed from hitting to grabbing, clearly Helian Ba intended to capture her alive to coerce Jiang Dali.
Yet even so, the grasping Qi Force was fierce enough that when it made contact with Wang Yuyan’s body, it entered her system, firmly locking her extraordinary meridians and placing her under absolute control.
Just as Wang Yuyan was about to be captured, Helian Ba had yet to lock her throat when suddenly, strong resistance burst forth from the acupuncture points within her body, rebounding his Inner Strength back at him and even breaking out of his control.
This strong resistance, oddly familiar to him, was actually his own power.
Such a technique of Borrowing Power was exactly like the maneuver Black Wind Village Chief had used to shift his attack previously.
These rapid changes were so intricately delicate that only those involved could comprehend their profound subtleties.
The moment Helian Ba realized something was wrong, Wang Yuyan’s eyebrows furrowed in anger, and her body suddenly erupted with an Inner Strength so compelling that it even made him pale, her palms swiftly sweeping across abruptly pressing solidly against his chest.
The Undying Seal Technique!
Instantly, two waves of heart-piercing, one vigorous and one gentle palm power penetrated directly through his chest, not only differing in firmness and temperature but also extreme in their aggressive heat and gentle coldness.
The intensely hot right palm power stormed forward like a torrent of angry waves, while the left palm’s gentle cold power manifested an irresistible force of absorption.
Such an unusual blend of Cultivation Technique and palm power attacked simultaneously in two distinct forms.
Even though Helian Ba was far stronger than Wang Yuyan, he was momentarily caught off-guard and stumbled.
He felt as if his Inner Breath had been violently torn apart in an instant, his whole body’s energy in disarray, hot on one side and cold on the other, and despite having ample True Qi, he couldn’t deploy even a fraction of it at that moment.
Fortunately, his strength was indeed staggering. As his energy moved with his will and his body’s energy circulated in a reverse cycle, by the critical moment Wang Yuyan’s palm power reached his core, he had circulated his energy nine times, dissipating much of the incoming palm power while stepping back.
However, such a delay allowed Wang Yuyan to perform the Wave-skimming Light Step, quickly evading as she stepped through the formation, shocking anyone witnessing with astonished eyes.
This rapid, swift combat unfolded in a flash of lightning.
Wang Yuyan, this frail woman, suddenly erupted with Inner Strength not inferior to any older veteran present, and her lightning-fast maneuvers were so elusive that many could not even perceive them, leaving those who could utterly astonished.
Even the Sea Shark Palace Master, having personally intervened, had yet to capture a seemingly delicate maid who appeared to be doing ordinary chores like cooking and fetching water by the side of the Black Wind Village Chief?
Helian Ba himself found it unbelievably frustrating, yet upon hearing Bai Ting’s angry reminder, he had no time for astonishment.
He only felt a terrifying and oppressive fierce wind striking his back, quickly halting and twisting sideways, narrowly dodging two astonishingly fierce Finger Strengths by a mere hair’s breadth.
But just as he avoided them, a large hand radiating dazzling golden light threw a punch generating a mountain-collapsing Qi Force coming towards him, which also contained a pulling force, indicating that despite its fierce appearance, the punch concealed a brutal Abnormal Power.
"Damn it!—As if I’d be afraid of you!"
Helian Ba, nearly out of breath and face red with exertion, shouted fiercely, raising his palm to his ear, launching a spinning movement.
Spiral Qi formed from multiple layers of palm shadows!
The Divided Heart Palm!
Powerful Energy surged like a raging torrent along Helian Ba’s external and internal Yangming meridian and the Taiyin meridian, counteracting the punch!
An incredibly fierce, immense force exploded.
Helian Ba’s whole body shook violently, his Protective True Qi shattered, a surge of Qi-Blood upheaved, almost making him spit blood. He forcibly swallowed the blood in his throat, just about to use the Clone Demon Shadow technique to offload the force and evade.
"Stay where you are!!"
Jiang Dali’s fist turned into a claw, viciously grabbing and fully powering up.
Instantly, an extremely fierce Absorption Force emitted from his palm, almost magnetically adhering Helian Ba’s palm tightly, abruptly pulling much of the force from Helian Ba’s arm.
