Supreme Martial Arts: Unlock Boundless Power!

Chapter 19

The mighty force shattered Zhou Yi's defenses in an instant, as if a sharpened blade swept towards him.

In that moment, Zhou Yi's spirit surged to its utmost. He had an eerie sense of brushing against death, a concealed, gloomy, and horrifying aura that seemed unnervingly close to him.

On the opponent's hand, which was a size larger, an astonishing power emanated, surpassing Zhou Yi's understanding of internal energy and martial arts, particularly in the realm of the metal element.

In that split second, Zhou Yi's body moved, acting without the need for conscious thought. It moved naturally and spontaneously.

His clenched fists abruptly opened wide, and the tremendous internal energy within him suddenly reversed. At this critical juncture, the indomitable Metal Inner Energy transformed into a continuous and flexible Water Inner Energy, exhibiting both gentleness and strength.

An equally potent internal energy surged into his palms, causing the powerful Rolling Stone Fist to instantaneously shift into a gentle and supple Soft Palm（mian palm）.

In an instant, the roles of offense and defense between the two sides switched. However, Zhou Yi's transition proved far more challenging than his opponent's.

Although Hu Bin initially adopted an evasive strategy, the technique he employed was also a form of metal-based skill. However, due to his immense experience, even when employing metal-based techniques, they gentle and supple in force.

Nevertheless, once Hu Bin resolved to confront head-on, he could swiftly switch to the most powerful technique within the same elemental series.

Zhou Yi, on the other hand, was different. He had already unleashed the full power of the Rolling Stone Fist, reaching its pinnacle at the sixth level. At this moment, the difficulty of simultaneously transitioning both internal energy and technique to water-based elements far surpassed the skill transition within the same elemental series that Hu Bin possessed.

Yet Zhou Yi accomplished it seamlessly, as if it were the most natural thing, encountering no hindrances whatsoever.

A chill ran through Hu Bin's heart. As he unleashed his ultimate technique, he had already accepted the notion of both sides suffering injuries. Undoubtedly, his technique was immensely powerful and held a high chance of victory. As long as he could inflict severe injuries on this youth, with his abundant combat experience, he could successfully deal with his opponent within a short period of time.

However, no matter how many contingency plans he had made beforehand, he never could have imagined that the opponent's supposed top-tier metal-based martial technique, renowned for its unrivaled attacking power, would transform into a water-based Soft Palm at the moment their fists clashed. Moreover, the immense internal energy within this Soft Palm seemed to exceed his expectations. The successive layers of flexible yet strong water-based techniques unleashed their power to the utmost, rendering him unable to pursue immediately.

Zhou Yi's figure retreated backward like an agile ape, and after several steps, he completely dissipated the formidable impact. A strong flush suddenly surged on his face, turning as crimson as if he were intoxicated. Simultaneously, an unprecedented powerful aura emanated from his body. In that instant, this youth seemed to transform into a demon god of the Nine Abyss, raising his fists high and charging once again. His entire being exuded an unstoppable momentum.

The seventh level of metal Inner Energy, the pinnacle of Rolling Stone Fist at the seventh level, the combined power of these two merged instantaneously, maximizing the potential of the metal-based techniques.

It was also the most powerful move Zhou Yi had ever unleashed, far surpassing any moment during his self-cultivation in the secret chamber.

At this crucial moment of life and death, his latent potential was fully unleashed, showcasing the essence of this move in all its glory. He was like a cannonball, like a colossal mountain, pressing heavily towards his opponent.
