Gate of Immortality

Chapter 205: Combining Martial Arts

Yang Shi's Gold Devil Seal buzzed as metal qi flowed to his body. The metal qi strengthed his physical body as it formed a faint golden armor over him. It was the second time Yang Shi used this technique. But he could feel the armor looked more defining after he adjusted the flow of metal qi.

Yue Wuji drew his hands as it got shrouded by a blue aura. Water appeared in a whirling manner as he charged at Yang Shi. Yang Shi snorted as he used Soaring Eagle Immortal Steps to easily dodge the attack.

Yue Wuji's water blades were flexible as its attack grew faster and faster. The water blade rippled as it viciously shot at Yang Shi.

" Let's see how many times you can dodge! Spiraling Waves!" The water blade got bigged as Yue Wuji slashed at Yang Shi.

" Hmph! Ghost Fist!" Yang Shi didn't use any battle techniques but the common martial arts of the Earth. But with the buff from Gold Devil Armor, this common martial art can become a killing move by Yang Shi.

Yang Shi's fist became a pale golden blur as eight shadows of fists attacked Yue Wuji.

*PENG PENG PENG PENG*

Yang Shi blocked the attack of Yue Wuji as he repelled him. The onlookers were shocked by the sudden development of things.

" Yi! What technique is that? Is that Eight Thunder Fist?" A person couldn't help but ask.

" Although it looks like Eighth Thunder Fist Technique, it didn't show any spiritual qi fluctuations. It was as if, He was solely doing a body movement."

" How could his physical body is capable of stopping a battle technique?" Another person rebuked.

Yang Shi barely worried about the attacks of Yue Wuji as he was confident in his Gold Devil Armor. Yang Shi used martial art techniques as he fought with Yue Wuji.

Yang Shi didn't use martial art because he was lazy to cast battle techniques, but he used martial arts to test something.

" As expected. These techniques can be considered prototype dao techniques. With Internal Energy, the might of martial art may be negligible, but these techniques were made according to the enlightenment and the laws of world." Yang Shi pondered.

" Since I have confirmed it, there is no need to drag out things." Yang Shi chuckled.

" Bastard! You can only block and dodge?! Take this!" Yue Wuji became furious as he drew his sword.

" Rippling Waves Storm!" The silver sword beamed with blue light as vertical water lines came crashing at Yang Shi. It was like hundreds of water swords fell over him.

Yang Shi's expression changed slightly as he saw the incoming attack.

" Let's see the defensive capabilities of Gold Devil Armor!" Yang Shi didn't hesitate as he fully unleashed the power of the Gold Devil Armor.

The Gold Devil Armor was the innate ability of the Gold Devil Seal. It doesn't utilize the spiritual qi, but pure metal qi to form armor around the body. The armor of Yang Shi is barely visible as his Gold Devil Seal was only at the embryonic stage. But when the power of the Gold Devil Armor grows, it will become visible.

Yang Shi gathered the power in his fist as he punched the Rippling Waves Storm of Yue Wuji. But the addition is, he activated his Celestial View to find the weakness of the attack.

Yang Shi easily went through the gaps as he dispelled the attack. But some of the attacks still hit his body.

Yang Shi's robe was torn as a trace of wound appeared. But it looked superficial as only a few drops of blood trickled.

" Impossible!" Yue Wuji became alarmed as he saw Yang Shi didn't have any serious injuries. He felt Yang Shi wore some sort of hidden armor as he couldn't believe that his physical body is strong to take it head on.

Yang Shi waved his arm in a semi circular manner as if he was doing Tai Chi exercise.

Tai Chi, simple martial arts, was meant to be used by all kinds of people. There are lots of people, especially elderly folks, who exercise Tai Chi every morning in the park. But that was the simplest type of Tai Chi.

With the flow of many eras, Tai Chi had undergone countless variations. Some were to energize the body and calm the mind. Some variations were meant to practice as martial arts, capable of killing.

The Divine Art of Tai Chi, which Yang Shi practices occasionally is one of the earliest variations of Tai Chi, which revolves around controlling one's innate Yin and Yang energy.

It's all about balancing the opposites elements. Yin and Yang, Soft and Hard, Warm and Cold, Fast and Slow. When one can control this, it's the same as having Internal energy. 

Yang Shi had overbearing Yin and Yang qi from his Nine Saints Extreme Yang Skeleton and Immemorial Evil Yin Vein. So Tai Chi was like a perfect controller to control these energies.

" Hehe, Let's try this move." Yang Shi slowly circulated Yin qi to his palm as he slapped the chest of Yue Wuji. He was imitating a move that he always saw in the martial arts novel, The Hundred Layered Palm. 

It was basically the use of Tai Chi with Yin qi's soft element. It can ignore any defense as it's a vibration-type attack. It can easily shatter internal organs, causing instakill.

Yue Wuji's expression changed as Yang Shi's palm landed on his chest. He felt a powerful fore as he blew back. But soon he stabilize himself as he coughed. 

" Eh! What was that? Could it be...."

" Damn it! It's a fake attack." Yue Wuji sneered.

Fortunately, It didn't cause any harm to him

Yang Shi's expression turned odd as the technique didn't work as intended. YangShi's felt his cheek turned hot as he felt embarrassing.

" Hehe! To err is human... Anyway, I am tired of this shit." Yang Shi sighed in his heart as he clenched his fist and looked at Yue Wuji.

" Brat! Don't you think you have won yet! I am still..." Yue Wuji was shouting but his eyes turned wide as he saw Yang Shi suddenly disappeared from his position.

" Ghost Fist! Eight returns to One!" Yang Shi summoned the entier power of Gold Devil Seal as he threw a punch at Yue Wuji. His fist turned into eight shadows, which merged into one in midway.

Yue Wuji finally felt dread as he saw the punch. He hurriedly chanted an incantation as a light armor appeared over his body.

*BOOM*

With a thunderous noise, Yue Wuji felt his vision blared as felt his body became a broken kite. He got blasted back as he crashed on a stone pillar. The stone pillar shattered as Yue Wuji lied in the rubble, with his bloodied body twitching.

" Earlier, I broke only one bone, yet look now. Your entire body is broken. Only if you listened to me earlier." Yang Shi shook his head as he said with a pitied voice.

The onlooker's face turned odd as they listened to Yang Shi.

" Pfttt!" Mo Yi and Liu Jiang couldn't help but spat the wine they're were drinking.

" HAHAHAHA." Mo Xiaowen didn't restrain as he laughed.

Mo Shan saw the entire thing as he sighed and called his servants.

" Go, attended Young master Yue. Call Alchemist Cai and tell him to check Yue Wuji's condition."  Mo Shan's expression didn't change as if it's a very trifling affair.

" Damn, My looks go messy." Yang Shi's expression turned gloomy as he walked to Bai Ruxue.

" Are you ok?" YangShi asked with a bit of concern.

" Well, Since young master is here, how can something happen to me?" Bai Ruxue's eyes turned like crescent moon as she smiled.

Yang Shi rubbed his nose with embarrassment as his heart thumped.
