Lv Xinwen looked at the tattered clothes in his hands, a trace of regret flickering across his face. He said, "What a pity. If this garment were made from the combination of the Northern Ice Mountain's Heavenly Silkworm Silk and the Southern Wasteland's Human-Faced Spider Silk, it could have withstood your innate needle strike today."

Zhou Yi's heart skipped a beat as he asked, "Does that mean, Brother Lv, your martial arts must rely on such specially crafted weapons to unleash their full potential?"

Lv Xinwen smiled bitterly and tossed aside the tattered clothes in his hand, saying, "Even without such specially crafted weapons, I can still annihilate your entire clan."

With that, he took a step forward, his palms interchanged. This time, his speed was far from the imperceptible swiftness he displayed earlier; instead, it seemed somewhat slow.

However, it was merely an illusion. With just three steps, he had already crossed a distance of tens of meters and forcefully struck out with a resounding palm.

Water-based martial arts were not suited for direct confrontation, yet this old man chose the path of aggressive assault.

Having had their initial conversation, he already understood that Zhou Yi was a newcomer to the realm of innate strength. Though he couldn't comprehend why Zhou Yi possessed such formidable innate martial arts like the Hidden Needle Imprint, since Zhou Yi had only recently advanced to the innate realm, his innate true energy was undoubtedly far inferior to that of Lv Xinwen, who had been at the innate level for over twenty years. Therefore, after failing with the Mist Compression Technique, he immediately opted for the most reliable approach.

"One force can subdue ten techniques" was a simple principle, but often the most practical one.

As if emerging from the void, a palm suddenly thrust toward Zhou Yi's chest. If this palm strike landed solidly, even as an innate expert, Zhou Yi would find it difficult to bear the consequences.

However, in the face of this sudden palm strike, Zhou Yi's hands swiftly flipped, and the previously hidden Needle Imprint instantly transformed into a steady and solid Earth Seal.

This seal technique was also learned from Lin Taoli, but it was the most perfect one he had mastered. Although it had some differences compared to when Lin Taoli used it, those variances were modified to suit Zhou Yi's own characteristics, making it the most suitable technique for him.

The elusive hand in the void wavered for a few moments, seemingly trying to find a flaw in Zhou Yi's defense. However, its owner suddenly realized that once Zhou Yi changed his hand seal, there were no longer any vulnerabilities on his body. It seemed that his entire being was protected by this peculiar seal.

After countless swaying motions, both real and illusory, in various directions, the hand finally collided heavily with Zhou Yi's Earth Seal.

It was as if his hand seal had been waiting there, specifically anticipating this hand's arrival.

Lv Xinwen felt an extreme sense of frustration. The strike he just executed was his full strength, yet he still couldn't gain the slightest advantage in terms of martial arts.

His insight was keen, and with just one glance, he could see that these two hand seals had a common lineage but also had distinct paths. However, there was no doubt that both hand seals were innate martial arts.

He was astonished in his heart, wondering about the origins of this young man. How could he have mastered two innate hand seal techniques?

If it were merely learning them, it wouldn't be so surprising. However, Zhou Yi not only learned them but also grasped their essence, which was truly unbelievable.
