Chapter 431: Chapter 396: Another Killing Move_2

With long limbs and meticulous control over distance, possessing a center of gravity like mercury and comprehensive techniques, as well as lightning-fast neural responses, these were the reasons why Silvar dominated the ring!

After the last change of direction, Wu’s toes gripped the ground, his body crouched low, back muscles tensed, in that instant he harnessed the power of the Qilin Step and his waist and back, and then he suddenly accelerated to close the gap with Silvar, his right arm thrusting forward like a spear, slamming into him!

Silvar protected his chest with his right arm while simultaneously turning his right kick into a push against Wu’s thigh.

Bang!

Silvar was sent reeling by Wu’s hit, but he changed his move in time and his defense was also timely, so he didn’t take much force. However, his expression grew serious.

Normally, he would dodge his opponent’s attacks leveraging his mercury-like center of gravity, and when his opponent became flustered, he’d mock them while counterattacking. But now, the strength Wu displayed made him change his mind. Wu’s attack range was not as good as his, but he was able to close that gap with various means, something Silvar had never encountered before.

When Kung Fu reached the realm that Wu had, indeed one could ignore some innate physical disparities.

After landing a successful hit, Wu did not let up, unleashing the Xingyi Twelve Forms like a surging river; Tiger Form Splitting Fist, Snake Form Drilling Fist, Horse Form Cannon Fist, Dragon Form Breaking Fist, Bear Form Horizontal Fist... switching from one form to another, waves upon waves, releasing power ferociously, with overwhelming fist intent!

Facing Wu’s ferocious attack, Silvar was not afraid at all and chose to fight offense with offense!

Hands, feet, elbows, knees, none were spared in the attack, and Silvar appeared like a pitch-black spider, all eight limbs moving as if to slowly consume his opponent.

"Ow ow ow!"

The atmosphere on site was electric, with Legendary Spider’s trademark style reemerging, the fierce exchange of blows thrilling the audience.

Even though vital points could not be targeted, within Wu’s current realm, the number of people who could withstand such a head-on assault was very few, not to mention matching him in offense; mental toughness, reaction speed, speed of strikes, adaptability, combat skills, Silvar was the strongest Wu had faced in the ring!

Silvar was actually quite surprised; during the weigh-in at the check-in area, he noticed that Wu’s weight had not yet reached middleweight, he was a full ten pounds lighter, but now facing Wu, Silvar clearly felt that his own striking power was weaker than Wu’s.

At a power disadvantage and wanting to withstand Wu’s assault, Silvar could only speed up the pace of his offense, coordinating fists, feet, elbows, and knees to attack simultaneously. Upon contact with Wu’s strikes, before the power could settle, he would immediately switch to elbows and knees, trying to disperse Wu’s power as much as possible.

This multi-focal fighting style was also why he was known as ’Spiderman.’

In just a few seconds, the two exchanged more than a dozen moves, many of which landed solidly on each other’s bodies; Wu relied on the Golden Bell Shield, not dodging or avoiding, while Silvar dealt with it through skillful force dissipation.

Fighting this way, Wu didn’t need to be distracted by dodging, allowing for faster strikes, and he overpowered Silvar in terms of momentum.

Silvar’s gaze was resolute. Although he felt immense psychological pressure, it didn’t affect his attacking, which was very decisive. But he also knew that he could not gain an advantage by continuing this way, so he decisively changed his fighting style.

Bang!

Silvar took a punch from Wu and stretched out his hands to grab Wu’s arms, intending to pull Wu into a ground fight.

With a longer reach than Wu and fast hands, this sudden grab was difficult for Wu to dodge, and both his arms were caught.

After grabbing Wu, Silvar first forcefully pulled towards himself, then immediately changed to pushing outwards and finally violently lifted upwards.

This pull, push and lift displayed a seamless transition of triple strength, effortlessly disrupting his opponent’s balance.

However, Wu was well-prepared. The moment he was grabbed, his shoulders sank and elbows dropped, his center of gravity moved down, stabilizing himself without having his center of gravity broken by Silvar.

"You’re at a disadvantage in a ground fight, in the whole UFC, Silvar’s ground skills are second only to Habu, solidly in the top three!"

This was what Li Tongyun had said to Wu before the match, so Wu did not want to engage in a ground fight with Silvar. Having nearly been submitted by Habu on the ground before, he was unwilling to take the risk now against Silvar, whose ground skills were only second to Habu’s.

Silvar failed to disrupt Wu’s center of gravity in one go, his right foot immediately lunged forward, hooking behind Wu’s heel; with synchronized effort in his lower leg, waist, and both arms, he tried to force Wu down.

Wu’s hands met in front of his lower abdomen, fingers interlocking and shifting, seemingly forming a hand seal.

His movements were swift; in the blink of an eye, his fingers had changed positions more than a dozen times, and without close observation, it was impossible to notice Wu’s fingers had moved.

As Wu formed the hand seal, the qi and blood in his abdomen flowed to a particular spot.

"Uh?"

At this point, the only person in the audience who could sense something was Li San, because his realm came closest to Wu’s.

It took Wu only 0.5 seconds to form the seal, and after another 0.5 seconds, his center of gravity was about to be broken by Silvar, and his face turned a flushed red, the result of qi and blood rushing to his face.

Boom!

In the next instant, Wu’s entire body erupted like a volcano, his muscles and bones crackling.

Silvar had grasped Wu’s arms, and at that moment, felt Wu’s body jolt, as a surge of power burst forth!

Instead of dissipating, the power concentrated and flowed towards his arms, culminating in Wu’s palms striking out towards Silvar’s lower abdomen.

Although Silvar did not possess Tai Chi’s listening skill, his extensive combat experience allowed him to react as soon as he felt the abnormality in Wu’s body.

He immediately gave up on throwing Wu down, tensed his leg muscles, then relaxed them, and leaped backward with force, trying to regain distance.

But their bodies were already very close, and Wu’s explosion was so sudden and fast that his palms still hit Silvar’s lower abdomen.

Bang!

Silvar’s expression changed, a mix of pain and surprise flashing in his eyes as he hastily retreated, simultaneously offloading the force while widening the gap.

"This kid has something new again."

Below the stage, Li San muttered to himself.

Wu’s hand seals and the manipulation of his qi and blood were similar in principle to the Yoga big handprint. The ten fingers are connected to the heart, and the heart is the key point in the circulation of qi and blood throughout the body; thus, forming hand seals can aid in controlling the flow of qi and blood.

Wu’s hand seals accelerated the flow of qi and blood, concentrating it in a crucial spot in his lower abdomen, thus enhancing the explosive power of his arms. This technique was akin to the knee-jerk reaction, where tapping a key spot on the knee makes the lower leg kick out involuntarily; similarly, concentrating qi and blood on a key spot can affect other parts of the body.

Such a technique was only possible because Wu’s mastery of Bone Marrow was nearing perfection, giving him increasingly strong control over his organs.

He had recently created the ultimate move "Heavenly Punishment," a technique involving the organs and inspired by the endless variations and interplay of the Five Elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which had sparked many ideas in Wu. In addition, sparring with Bai Tao in the virtual reality, Bai Tao had used a similar method of stimulating a body part by manipulating qi and blood. So Wu, by analogy and further innovation, had created another explosive killing move!

Wu was not short of desperate killing moves, but they were akin to Giant Python Swallowing Pill, which were damaging to both the target and the user. In contrast, his newly created move, though less powerful in explosiveness than Giant Python Swallowing Pill, had the advantage of being controllable and of placing minimal burden on him, allowing for repetitive use.

Having withstood Wu’s sudden explosive palms, Silvar felt sharp pain in his lower abdomen, as if his intestines were severed, making it very difficult to muster strength in the moment. Naturally, Wu wouldn’t miss this chance and immediately went after him, raising his arm for a downward chop.

Heavenly Punishment!

PS: Today I returned from a business trip, spent the whole day in a car, so let’s have a single 4000-word update. I will make up for the missing one tomorrow.

Also, Wu’s second killing move has been revealed, and while some may think the first move ’Heavenly Punishment’ is a bit over-the-top, does anyone have any good suggestions for the second move’s name? Feel free to leave a comment, and if it fits, I’ll adopt it.
