Chapter 199: Chapter 178: Like a Dragon_2

Wu Li’s right arm was thrown off by Hu Shan, but his center of gravity remained unchanged. Facing the killing move kicked by Hu Shan, he didn’t pause or hesitate, taking another heavy step forward and striking out with his left fist again!

Wu Li’s right leg stepped forward, actively meeting Hu Shan’s kick with his shin bone. The force of Hu Shan’s kick was enough to completely break his shin, but his right fist could take the opportunity to hit Hu Shan’s chest.

Even if it breaks a leg, I must step forward and throw this punch!

That was Wu Li’s response. He was like an unmatched warrior on the battlefield, with a white spear on a silver horse. No matter if faced by thousands of troops, no matter how they changed, he would only charge forward with his spear, unstoppable!

Until now, just three moves in, Wu Li’s fist intent and momentum had not only remained unbroken by Hu Shan, but had continuously risen, reaching a new peak!

Hu Shan’s face changed. He had not expected Wu Li’s response to be so tough, refusing to stop even with a broken leg, insisting on pushing forward to strike.

Swipe! Hu Shan’s body suddenly leaned backwards, as if performing an Iron Plate Bridge, the change in his spine altering the power distribution in his right leg. He switched from kicking to pushing, pressing his foot against Wu Li’s shin, pulling back by borrowing the force.

Taking a kick, Wu Li might end up with a broken leg, but if Hu Shan took a punch, his breastbone could fracture, possibly resulting in instant death. Naturally, he did not want such an exchange, so he instantly changed his power and distanced himself from Wu Li.

This retreat gave Wu Li an opportunity.

With Wu Li’s fierce fist intent and Xingyi, the moment his opponent retreated, they would easily fall into disadvantage.

Wu Li’s figure moved. This time, he did not use the Horse Form Cannon, for although it was the most powerful, it wasn’t the fastest. At this moment, he needed to seize the initiative, catching up quickly without giving Hu Shan time to regroup.

Swipe! Wu Li pounced forward, using the Tiger Form. His hands raised, then slashed down like lightning—Tiger Hugging Head!

This pounce was truly like a fierce tiger attacking its prey, the fierceness reaching an extreme, his fist intent overwhelmingly dominant, leaving even Hu Shan momentarily dazed.

Facing Wu Li’s pounce, Hu Shan recalled the time when he was young and had gone to Myanmar’s primal forests to observe tigers. He and the locals rode elephants searching for tigers.

They indeed encountered a wild tiger. The tiger lurked in the bushes, suddenly bursting forth from several meters away, pouncing in front of an elephant, jumping over its back, and attacking the people seated there.

Although people quickly fired shots, the tiger bit off three fingers of a man on the elephant’s back before turning and escaping.

Hu Shan was right beside that man at the time and witnessed the entire sequence—from the tiger’s appearance, the sudden pounce to cover seven or eight meters, to the final leap causing injury.

The tiger’s gaze and its terrifying presence deeply imprinted themselves in Hu Shan’s memory.

Now, as Wu Li made his Tiger Form leap and Splitting Fist strike, his fist intent stern, Hu Shan was reminded of that tiger on that day.

So similar!

Facing Wu Li’s peak fist intent, Hu Shan also demonstrated why he was considered Southeast Asia’s number one expert.

He vigorously stamped his right foot down, straightened his spine, his body springing back like a coil, instantly going from leaning back to standing upright. His center of gravity shifted as smoothly as mercury, without any pausing.

Mercury-like center of gravity!

At this point, Wu Li’s fists had already slashed down, almost hitting his forehead, the breeze from the movement blowing away the rain on his hair.

Hu Shan’s eyes narrowed to slits, he squatted down, bending his legs inward, using the Wing Chun stance known as "Sun Character horse" to slightly increase the distance between them, a nearly extreme maneuver to buy himself a bit of time. Then his right hand swept upwards, blocking Wu Li’s fists just before.

Bang! Wu Li’s fists struck Hu Shan’s right arm. Had the blow landed squarely, it would have immediately fractured Hu Shan’s arm into three pieces!

Hu Shan’s right arm had just made contact with Wu Li’s fists when he suddenly thrust downward, his body following the motion as if he had been struck by Wu Li and had suddenly shrunk.

But in the next instant, Hu Shan’s entire body flashed out at an astonishing speed.

His arm and body seemed to merge into one, as if instantly transforming into a giant spring, compressed downward by Wu Li’s strike, and then suddenly ejecting to the side.

To achieve great success in Hua Jin of Xingyi Fist, one’s entire body power must be integrated and rounded, responsive to stimulations, capable of converting any part into a fist, and the whole body transforming into one punch. Hu Shan’s Xingyi Fist had not even reached the Master Level, yet at this moment, he was able to produce an effect like that of a mastered Hua Jin!

Wu Li was startled. Hu Shan’s move was too cunning, countering his own Splitting Fist with the Long Arm Fist Power, and using the Two-character Horse of Yong Chun to dissipate the force. Most crucially, he was using the Crane Return Step from the White Crane Sect to transfer and shift the force laterally.

In Bagua Palm, there is the technique ’Extract Kan and Fill Li’; in Tai Chi, there is ’Borrowing Force to Strike.’ Both use the opponent’s force to transfer one’s own power. And now, Hu Shan was forcefully combining three External martial arts techniques to achieve the force transfer typical of Internal Fist!

"If he really masters Xingyi Fist completely, combining internal and external, he might truly break through to the Grandmaster Realm with the Killing Fist."

Such an epiphany flashed through Wu Li’s mind; perhaps the reason the Killing Fist wasn’t in the system exchange list was that no Grandmaster Level expert had ever emerged in this martial art. If Hu Shan were to break through the Grandmaster Level with the Killing Fist, it might then appear in the system’s exchange list!

With the momentum from Wu Li’s Tiger Form Splitting Fist, Hu Shan used Crane Return Step to flash instantly to the right side of Wu Li’s body and then swiftly struck out with his left hand toward Wu Li’s throat.

Although he had dodged Wu Li’s lethal strike with his self-created Killing Move, his right arm was injured in the process of dissipating force, sustaining a fracture that made it difficult to exert force immediately. Now he could only strike with his left hand, but it was enough because his evasive move was so swift Wu Li barely had time to turn around to respond or to dodge.

A moment of life or death!

In a split second, from nearly killing his opponent to being on the verge of being killed by his opponent, such a reversal, if experienced by someone slightly weaker in willpower, might have already lost their composure.

Wu Li’s mind was clear and calm. Under the threat of death and tremendous pressure from Hu Shan, he had never been as mentally clear as he was at this moment.

His hips clamped, his waist muscles bulging his clothes—this was Tiger’s hip!

His Tiger Form Splitting Fist was not yet complete, and at this moment, stimulating the Tiger’s hip with the Tiger Form to generate power was perfectly timed, flawlessly connecting the before and after.

Soon after, Wu Li’s entire spine was also stimulated by the explosive sound from his hips, bending and surging upwards violently—this was Dragon Tail!

With this explosive power, Wu Li’s entire body was like explosive force; every muscle seemed like a barrel of gunpowder, bursting instantaneously!

Tiger’s hip, Dragon Tail; this fierce way of generating power resulted in Dragon and Tiger Power.

Wu Li did not attempt to block but instead let this explosive power move his body sharply to the right.

Instantly switching from Tiger Form to Dragon Form, pushing his body to strike with Dragon and Tiger Power, this was ’Body Strike,’

Xingyi Killing Move, Dragon Body Bending!

Bang! Hu Shan’s chest was struck by Wu Li, sending him flying immediately, spitting out a mouthful of blood while still in the air.

The blood scattered wildly in the rain; Hu Shan lay on the ground, his vision blurred as he stared at the figure ahead.

Like a tiger.

Like a dragon!
