Capítulo 1198: Chapter 466: Killing with a Borrowed Knife (Part 3)
It’s almost as if he was a monster!
However, he didn’t know that the Old Man’s heart was increasingly shocked.
Su Mo wanted to understand his Whale Swallowing Skill, but that was just on the surface.
In his view, he had presented his own requirements to Su Mo and agreed that after succeeding, he would be willing to serve Su Mo.
But… Su Mo also had to see if he was qualified to be commanded.
Thus, he used the Whale Swallowing Skill as an excuse to gauge his strength.
Just now, being sent flying by Su Mo’s palm was precisely his second opportunity.
So when he struck, there was no holding back.
However, after a bout of fighting, every punch he threw was wrapped in force as though with wind and thunder.
But when confronted with Su Mo, the force naturally dissipated.
Not only did it not cause Su Mo any harm, but there was not enough leftover force to counterattack himself.
This was completely unreasonable!
If it was just once or twice, it could still be accepted.
But every punch being in such a state is definitely not a coincidence.
The only explanation for such extreme abnormality is…
That Su Mo’s power in every punch was precise and perfect.
Just enough to offset his force, not a bit more, not a bit less.
The precision was astoundingly wonderful!
This… How could any human accomplish such a thing?
At what supreme level must martial arts be to achieve such an accomplishment?
This young man, could he truly be the Saint Zuo of Dragon King Hall?
No, is the Saint Zuo of Dragon King Hall really that brilliant?
Then what about the Dragon King Hall Master?
The Old Man’s heart grew heavier and heavier, even to the point of fear.
Looking up, he saw Su Mo smiling at the corner of his mouth, seemingly like a tall mountain, and himself like an ant beneath that mountain.
Attempting to counter the grandeur of the mountain with his meager strength.
Such arrogance and ignorance!
His heart tightened, instinctively drawing back, even making him want to turn and flee.
Yet he gritted his teeth, despite his trembling legs, and forced himself to stay, raising his head to look at Su Mo:
“Saint Zuo… your supreme martial arts, I cannot compete!”
Su Mo originally intended to punch, but had to hold it back.
His face showed a bit of disappointment.
This made the Old Man’s pupils contract again.
This person truly had not used his full strength!
If he were to go all out, could he stop just abruptly?
All the moves just now were released and withdrawn at his will, depending solely on his thought.
He couldn’t help but feel a resurgence of fear.
He even showed a look of despair on his face.
Su Mo tilted his head and looked at him for a couple of seconds, smiling as he spoke:
“Why didn’t you use the skill you used against Zhang Fang and Yu Tong?”
The Old Man was stunned, instinctively answering:
“After achieving Great Success in my Whale Swallowing Skill, I realized the Soft Skill.
“However, it is easy to be forceful but difficult to be soft.
“Though Zhang Fang and Yu Tong are formidable together, their power is limited. I can easily shift their attacks using the Soft Skill.
“But… faced with Saint Zuo, I don’t dare to have any arrogance and must use my strongest means.”
“I see.”
Su Mo nodded: “If you thoroughly master this Soft Skill, your martial arts will rise by one First Grade.”
“Yes.”
The Old Man nodded solemnly.
Unconsciously, he had already taken Su Mo’s words as golden rule.
At that moment, Su Mo turned to Xiao He.
He saw the Ice Crystal revolving around him, pressing Zhang Fang and Yu Tong to the point they could hardly breathe.
But after all this time fighting, the two were still alive and kicking.
He couldn’t help but shake his head lightly:
“Xiao He… your Mystic Ice Seven Extremes is truly lax.”
“…I acknowledge my mistake.”
Xiao He’s face turned pale; he dared not argue but only intensified his assault.
“Enough, enough, as the Sihai Dragon Heads hold a special position, I can’t bear to watch you make such a spectacle, listen closely…”
Su Mo sighed and said softly:
“Xuan Yin in the north, Dingtian Acupoint, Zhuan Yun Gate, follow Taiyin’s way, display the might of Mystic Ice!”
Xiao He, upon hearing this, was instantly enlightened, and immediately his Mystic Ice True Qi surged, traveling from Tian Tu to Yunmen.
With this transformation, the cold drastically escalated.
This Qi followed the Taiyin Lung Meridian, and when he raised his palm, a layer of ice had entirely formed on his hand.
He struck out with a palm, and Yu Tong’s Longsword was held horizontally before his chest, but at the touch of the two, there was a cracking sound, the Longsword was forcibly broken by Xiao He’s palm, and the palm’s icy force didn’t even physically contact, as the Mystic Ice True Qi had already penetrated the meridian.
Yu Tong, even with Inner Strength guarding his body, couldn’t help but shiver, his lips turning blue.
Seeing he was about to die under this palm, a roar like thunder echoed, and Zhang Fang thrust a punch from the side.
If this punch wasn’t faced, and the Assassin continued against Yu Tong, it was likely to result in mutual destruction.
Yet Saint Zuo evidently grew extremely impatient with his dawdling.
At this time, he couldn’t care whether there would be any damage to himself, risking mutual destruction, also trying to kill Yu Tong with his palm first.
Just then, he heard Su Mo recite a chant again by his ear.
He went according to what was said, and the Mystic Ice True Qi naturally surged within, suddenly causing his garment to flap fiercely.
When Zhang Fang’s punch landed, it couldn’t advance a bit.
At this moment, Xiao He’s palm had landed on Yu Tong’s chest, and with the Mystic Ice True Qi urging, his Heart Meridian shattered instantly, turning him into an ice sculpture, still standing on the spot.
Turning back, Zhang Fang’s punch finally broke through Xiao He’s Protective True Qi, just about to press forward, Xiao He lightly stepped, already sidestepping, then swiftly advancing, launching successive palms towards Zhang Fang.
His martial arts were naturally superior to Zhang Fang’s.
Actually, neither Zhang Fang nor Yu Tong could be his match one-on-one with Xiao He.
However, once those two teamed up, it was different.
Knowing each other for years, coordinated seamlessly, their alliance could place them among the top masters in Nanhai.
While Xiao He believed he could oppress them, to fight and win was quite troublesome.
Therefore, he was cautious until now.
But at this instant, with Yu Tong dead, Zhang Fang left alone, and the Mystic Ice Seven Extremes freezing his meridians, even the Body Protection Divine Skill couldn’t resist it.
After just a few moves, he was losing ground everywhere, struck by the Xuanyin Break move of Mystic Ice Seven Extremes at his brow.
Mystic Ice True Qi penetrated his brain, Zhang Fang instantly stiffened, then the sturdy figure fell heavily like a collapsing tower, silent.
Watching Zhang Fang’s demise, Xiao He immediately approached Su Mo, kneeling on one knee:
“I, your subordinate, did not fail my mission.”
Su Mo nodded slightly, thoughtfully looking at the kneeling Xiao He, defenseless, his eyes inscrutable.
