Absolute Choice

Chapter 537: Proud Dragon Repents!

Translator: CKtalon Editor: - -

The 'Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms' was a B-level reward that Shi Xiaobai obtained after completing the King's Mandate.

Shi Xiaobai had played games of the wuxia genre back on Earth. He had some understanding that the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms was one of the best cultivation techniques. He recalled that the game's blurb about 'Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms' was filled with praise and it was even deemed 'the paragon of external style martial arts, with unparalleled intricacies'.

However, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms that the Absolute Choice had awarded Shi Xiaobai was not only a pure martial arts technique. It had certain similarities and differences with the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms of martial arts. It was similarly an explosive and unyielding palm technique but its intrinsic quality was different from the one in the game. The latter was powered with internal energy while the former was powered by psionic power.

In other words, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms that Shi Xiaobai had obtained was not a martial art move but a psionic martial technique.

Psionic martial techniques and martial art moves were entirely different. If the differences were to be elaborated, a thick expository book could be written. Therefore, the only crucial difference is—the core power of psionic martial techniques was psionic power. Compared to the internal energy that powered martial art moves, psionic power was freer and less restricted. It was vast and immense. The comparison between the two was like the ocean and a lake. The limit of martial arts was the physical limits of the human body. Above martial arts, there was core-cultivation, and above core-cultivation, there was immortal-cultivation. As for the psionic cultivation system, it was endless with no limits.

The Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms that Shi Xiaobai was using was an explosive palm technique that was powered to the limits with his physical strength and psionic power!

"Try a taste of This King's Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms!"

Having said that, Shi Xiaobai bent his left leg outward slightly and bent his right arm inward slightly. Drawing out a circle, and with an exhalation, he pushed his palm forcefully at Eventide Seventh Wolf's incoming punch!

Instead of shock, Eventide Seventh Wolf was delighted. He turned his arm taut and clenched his fist tightly. With a sudden stride, he came to a halt and his fist came like a cannon.

Conch Spiral Smashing Fist!

The might of the fist was tremendously powerful but it needed time to gather strength to exert it on his opponent. His fist was like the eye of the storm as it stirred up squalls before compressing and condensing energy. It was like the compression of a spring before it was released. The immensity of the strength only had a weakness. His motion would nevertheless be slightly retarded and it would make his strike easily evadable.

However, seeing Shi Xiaobai having no intention of dodging, and instead struck out in a head-on strike, Eventide Seventh Wolf was extremely delighted.

The Psionic Might Realm was the first ravine in the psionic cultivation system. There were two huge differences from the Psionic Mortal Realm. First, it was the suppressive advantage one gained from Soul Suppression. Secondly, it was the quality of psionic power.

Although Shi Xiaobai could ignore Soul Suppression unlike ordinary commoners, he was after all still at the Psionic Mortal Realm. No matter how much he had built himself up, the quality of psionic power definitely could not be compared to the Psionic Might Realm.

Eventide Seventh Wolf began having the satisfying visions of Shi Xiaobai being sent flying backward with a punch from him. However, despite the hatred and extreme anger, Eventide Seventh Wolf turned calm in battle. He did not turn complacent and instead concentrated to a high degree.

He would not forget that Shi Xiaobai had used a straight punch as a ruse while assaulting Tyger Li with a right slap. Shi Xiaobai was sinister and cunning.

Therefore, Eventide Seventh Wolf did not believe that Shi Xiaobai would foolishly engage in a head-on clash with him. Even though Shi Xiaobai's palms had moved up and had a martial stance, with strength projecting out through his nearly straight arms and back, which made it difficult for him to change his posture, Eventide Seventh Wolf did not dare take it lightly.

However, Eventide Seventh Wolf would not feel restrained as a result of that. That was because he planned on using his fist to overpower Shi Xiaobai. He wanted to use an indomitable force to crumble any sinister ploys.

Eventide Seventh Wolf believed that with the quality of his Psionic Might Realm's psionic power, Shi Xiaobai at the Psionic Mortal Realm would have no chance of withstanding his strike. Furthermore, he had something hidden up his sleeve!

Just as Eventide Seventh Wolf's Conch Spiral Smashing Fist struck out, his left arm that had been gathering strength lashed out like a whip from the side of his body.

It was not a single punch, but two punches. To be precise, it was a storm-like punch that was produced by two punches combined!

Boom!

Eventide Seventh Wolf's fists came together at the last moment, increasing the strength by several folds as it came to a violent clash with Shi Xiaobai's right palm!

At the instant the fists and palm collided, the corners of Eventide Seventh Wolf's mouth could not help but reveal a smile that seemed crazy with excitement.

"Seeking death!"

Eventide Seventh Wolf never expected that Shi Xiaobai would truly choose to clash head on with him. He thought to himself that the boy was really arrogant but the arrogance had gotten to his head. It was extremely foolish!

To clash head on with an opponent two realms above him was no doubt an ambitious attempt without a sense of his pitiable limitation.

However, Eventide Seventh Wolf's excitement only lasted for an instant. The scene he imagined of Shi Xiaobai being sent back in retreat while letting out a tragic cry did not happen. Neither did he experience the delight of an overwhelming strike.

His storm-like punches seemed to hit onto a towering and massive mountain!

Eventide Seventh Wolf's expression changed drastically as he felt that the boy's palm was as hard as a rock. It was unmovable and unrelenting. As for his fists, they failed to proceed an inch further.

A dragon's roar suddenly sounded!

Eventide Seventh Wolf seemed to see a few golden dragons leap out from behind the boy. They drew a circle in midair before charging at him with a roar!

Peng! Peng! Peng!

Having lost his force, his bones fractured. Eventide Seventh Wolf felt pain in his arms as the blast from his storm-like fists shattered from a single strike from the boy. None of his two fists had the ability to put up any form of resistance.

Eventide Seventh Wolf turned alarmed as he hurriedly retreated to open up a gap. However, retracting the force of his fists resulted in a backlash that hurt his chest. He had nearly spat out blood.

The head-on clash between palm and fist left Eventide Seventh Wolf unable to match Shi Xiaobai. He had suffered internal injuries.

"How is this possible!?"

Eventide Seventh Wolf found it unbelievable.

Shi Xiaobai was also somewhat astonished. He had used the most masculine and explosive strike, 'Proud Dragon Repents' of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

Things develop in the opposite direction once pushed too far. Extreme pride eventually led to repentance. With a forceful stance and indomitable force, the lifting of Shi Xiaobai's palms resembled an overlord raising a cauldron and his pushing of his palm forward was like a giant shoving a mountain.

The thing this palm strike was least afraid of was a head-on clash.

However, Shi Xiaobai had not used all his strength. He was confident that with his physical toughness, even if he was defeated by the first move, he would be able to retreat unscathed; therefore, he had only used 60% of his strength. He wanted to test how strong a so-called person at the Psionic Might Realm was. However, he never expected that a simple probe with a palm had left Eventide Seventh Wolf in shambles!

Eventide Seventh Wolf was sent retreating by 60% of Proud Dragon Repents. While he stumbled in retreat, Shi Xiaobai wasn't sloppy. He immediately strode forward and chased after him. Retracting his right arm before extending back out, he struck out once again with his palm, applying the move, Proud Dragon Repents, again!

The strike was fast and forceful like a raging flame and lightning blast. It came striking straight at Eventide Seventh Wolf's chest.

Eventide Seventh Wolf failed to avoid in time. He felt horror and anger, knowing that his defeat meant death. Immediately, he went for broke.

Unafraid of death, he ignored the Subduing Dragon Palm that Shi Xiaobai had struck toward his chest and instead produced a smashing fist at Shi Xiaobai's head!

To exchange injury for injury, life for a life, Eventide Seventh Wolf was still an iron-willed soldier despite being a lackey slave. At that critical juncture, he had a fortitude that belittled death!

However, Shi Xiaobai had a fortitude greater than his. Instead of retreating, he stuck his head out and struck out with his head and hit Eventide Seventh Wolf's fist. At the same time, his palm struck Eventide Seventh Wolf's chest.

The hair-raising scene was like a head-on collision between two cars that had depressed the accelerator while the drivers released their hands from the steering wheel.

Peng!

Eventide Seventh Wolf's fist first smashed into Shi Xiaobai's head as he widened his eyes in shock. His face was filled with complete disbelief.

This wasn't a head but an extremely hard metallic lump!

Eventide Seventh Wolf's fist did not smash through Shi Xiaobai's head as he wished. Instead, the bone in his fingers fractured upon impact with Shi Xiaobai's head!

Boom!

At the same time, Shi Xiaobai's palm had struck straight at Eventide Seventh Wolf's chest!

Proud Dragon Repents was the mightiest palm strike that was unparalleled!

Even though Eventide Seventh Wolf had used Psionic Hardening at the last moment, he failed to put up any resistance. With a boom, his entire being was sent flying out like a cannonball, smashing through the surrounding walls of the courtyard.

Eventide Seventh Wolf fainted on the spot as though he was roadkill.

Shi Xiaobai had defeated a person at the fifth stage of the Psionic Might Realm in two strikes!
