Chapter 374: 374 Red Gold Dragon Arm

"Yun Xiao, considering that we all belong to the Medical Pulse, I don’t want to fight you to the death. You still have time to admit defeat now!"

Looking at the deeply annoying young man in rough clothing opposite, Xue Gong’s eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, but his words were still full of the demeanor of a fellow senior, making many young disciples nod secretly.

However, it seems that Xue Gong had forgotten that Yun Xiao is the direct disciple of Sect Master Yu Shu, not from the Poison Vein or Medical Pulse. His statement of "we all belong to one vein" wasn’t very precise.

But within the Jade Pot Sect, everyone knows that Yun Xiao and the Poison Vein do not get along. Just yesterday, he even slapped to death Fu Du’s most beloved disciple, Yin Huan. Saying that he is from the Medical Pulse isn’t entirely unfounded.

"Ha, I didn’t expect that after several months, Senior Brother Xue Gong is still as hypocritical as ever. Truly unchanging!"

Right after Xue Gong spoke, Yun Xiao revealed a strange smile on his face, causing the former’s face to instantly darken.

Xue Gong was originally a hypocritical person, appearing generous in front of others, but once his interests are involved, he would turn against people in an instant.

Frankly speaking, Xue Gong and Yun Xiao didn’t have a deep hatred or direct conflict. It was only because Mo Qing showed favoritism towards Yun Xiao, which sparked jealousy in Xue Gong, making Yun Xiao an undeserved victim.

Having his hypocrisy publicly exposed, Xue Gong couldn’t stand the embarrassment, knowing he couldn’t win in a battle of words against this young man. So, it was time to let their actions speak instead.

"In that case, I can’t blame myself anymore. Today, Senior Brother will teach you what it means to respect the powerful."

Xue Gong acted high and mighty, and after these words, a majestic surge of Meridian Qi burst forth from him, immensely stronger than that of Yin Huan, who died at Yun Xiao’s hands yesterday.

Within the Peak of Meridian Rushing Realm, there are distinctions, especially for a supreme talent like Xue Gong. Everyone sensing his Qi felt as if he was only a step away from stepping into the Meridian Union Realm.

This was where Xue Gong’s confidence came from. Standing half a step into the Meridian Union Realm, he was fundamentally different from ordinary peak cultivators of the Meridian Rushing Realm. He could almost touch the Heavenly Dao of the Meridian Union Realm, and his techniques were far beyond ordinary people.

"Is this your confidence?"

Sensing Xue Gong’s Qi, Yun Xiao’s eyes flashed with a cold smile, mixed with a hint of mockery, because he believed that unless this man broke through to the real Meridian Union Realm, he wouldn’t even need to use the power of the Ancestor Vein to defeat Xue Gong.

"Fierce Saber Gang!"

A low shout came from Xue Gong’s mouth, and the next moment, he pulled out a broad-backed heavy saber from his Waist Storage, fiercely slashing forward. A slash of the Fierce Saber Gang, several ten-feet long, burst forth, which must be the so-called "Fierce Saber Gang."

"Isn’t that Senior Brother Xue Gong’s specialty weapon, the Spiritual Rank Intermediate weapon: Fierce Wind Mad Saber?"

Below the stage, someone instantly recognized the details of the thick-backed saber in Xue Gong’s hand, and even Bi Luo’s gaze was glued to the saber gang that was several ten-feet long.

It seemed that while Xue Gong spoke nonchalantly, he didn’t actually underestimate Yun Xiao deep down. After all, killing Yin Huan, a peak Meridian Rushing Realm cultivator, within two moves was something not even he could do.

The saber gang emitted by the Spiritual Rank Intermediate weapon was in fact a concentration of Xue Gong’s Meridian Qi, simply using a saber technique of Meridian Techniques, which undoubtedly posed a much greater threat to enemies.

In the attack of the Fierce Saber Gang, there was a faint sound of wind, and an intense heat rushing towards Yun Xiao’s face. If he were to be hit by this saber gang, even with Yun Xiao’s physical strength, he would likely be cleaved in two.

Unfortunately, the current Yun Xiao was no longer the same as he was several months ago. Like Yin Huan, he too had reached the Peak of the Meridian Rushing Realm, though only just entered, but were his methods comparable to Yin Huan’s?

Whoosh...

Seeing the fierce saber gang slashing towards him, Yun Xiao didn’t even think about taking it head-on. With a movement swift like a ghost, he dodged, easily avoiding the powerful slash.

However, seeing Yun Xiao’s move, Xue Gong was not surprised at all. He knew this guy’s speed was unparalleled, thinking that a single saber gang could kill him was obviously impossible.

Whoosh, whoosh!

Xue Gong delivered two continuous slashes, sending out two more saber gangs, each several dozen feet long, from his Furious Wind Saber. Meanwhile, the first saber gang that missed made a turn in the air, slashing towards Yun Xiao’s vulnerable back.

"This guy, he can already control Qi externally!"

Seeing this scene, many talents from the Inner Sect showed expressions of envy, for they knew that gathering Qi externally was a hallmark of the Meridian Rushing Realm, and controlling Qi externally was the specialty of the Meridian Union Realm strong players.

Xue Gong’s ability to control the Sword Gangs he cleaved out indicates that he truly touched the threshold of the Meridian Union Realm. It probably wouldn’t take long for him to truly break through to the Meridian Union Realm.

"Hmph, it’s just leveraging the special effects of a Spiritual Rank Intermediate weapon, still far from the true Meridian Union Realm!"

Bi Luo, who always regarded Xue Gong as a strong opponent, saw a clue with a flash of green light in his eyes. His cold snort also made the people nearby understand.

At this moment, Yue Qi and Mo Qing, two real cultivators of the Meridian Union Realm, said nothing, apparently agreeing with what Bi Luo said.

The Sword Gang controlled by Xue Gong was largely thanks to that Spiritual Rank Intermediate weapon, Fierce Wind Mad Saber, though it was related to his own Meridian Qi control, it was not the main reason.

However, when Xue Gong controlled the first Sword Gang to chop at Yun Xiao’s back, Yun Xiao was already in a pincer attack of three Sword Gangs. No matter which direction he dodged, he was inevitably hit by another Sword Gang from a different direction.

"It seems Yun Xiao has fallen into Senior Brother Xue Gong’s calculations!"

Seeing this scene, many people pondered thoughtfully, and some even muttered, revealing the true essence of the situation at the moment. Indeed, the first Sword Gang was just a tactic by Xue Gong to lure Yun Xiao.

Swipe! Swipe! Swipe!

Three Sword Gangs, each several meters long, formed a triangle and sandwiched Yun Xiao in the middle. The slender young man seemed to have no chance of escape; even if he suddenly grew wings, they would probably be slashed apart by one of the Sword Gangs.

Just when everyone thought that Yun Xiao could not avoid the pincer attack of the three Sword Gangs, they saw the ruggedly dressed young man suddenly lift his right hand, as if intending to use his arm to block one of the fierce Sword Gangs.

"Does this guy no longer want his right hand?"

Seeing this, Mo Qing frowned, her experience telling her that in such an unavoidable situation, the best method would be to take out a weapon, create an opening in one direction which might provide a slim chance of survival.

Yun Xiao had been with the Jade Pot Sect for over a year, Mo Qing didn’t believe that he couldn’t produce a decent weapon; even without a Spiritual Rank Intermediate weapon, a lower Spiritual Rank weapon could at least block the Sword Gang’s power, right?

"Utterly reckless!"

On the other side, Yue Qi let out a cold voice, clearly very dissatisfied with Yun Xiao’s action. The young man looked so smart, why was he so foolish at this moment?

Just when everyone thought Yun Xiao was out of his mind, they suddenly saw a streak of golden light burst from him, and in the next moment, even his sleeves emitted a blast of golden light.

"Chi Jin Dragon Arm!"

A deep shout came from deep within Yun Xiao. If anyone looked closely, they would see red-gold scales sprouting from his fingertips to his right shoulder.

Clearly, this was an advanced Meridian Technique that Yun Xiao had learned in his previous life in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, and the grade of this technique had already reached the high levels of the Spiritual Rank.

If the cultivators of the Hidden Dragon Continent knew that Yun Xiao, at the Meridian Rushing Realm stage, had successfully cultivated an Advanced Spiritual Rank Meridian Technique, their eyeballs would probably burst.

Generally speaking, an Advanced Spiritual Rank Meridian Technique is most suitable for cultivators at the Spirit Vein Realm. Those at the Meridian Union Realm can barely cultivate it, but can’t unleash its maximum power.

However, surpassing two grade levels would cause backlash from the Meridian Technique, potentially leaving the cultivator’s body or meridians shattered if not handled properly.

Take the Chi Jin Dragon Arm that Yun Xiao is using, for instance. It’s a pure physical strength advanced Meridian Technique. When perfected, it can cover both arms with dragon scales, and its defensive power is comparable to gold and iron.

However, if a Hidden Dragon Continent cultivator tried to practice this advanced Spiritual Rank Meridian Technique, even at the Meridian Union Realm, a slight misstep could result in exploding arms.

To successfully cultivate the Chi Jin Dragon Arm, one must possess an extremely strong physique, and without the methods Yun Xiao learned in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, there’s no way he could cultivate this advanced Spiritual Rank Meridian Technique.

The red-gold scales that sprouted from Yun Xiao’s right arm were not real dragon scales, they were metaphorically added by the creator of the technique to signify its defensive power, comparable to the Invincible Divine Dragon.

Although these weren’t real dragon scales and Yun Xiao only cultivated his right arm, yet a Sword Gang executed by Xue Gong, a genius at the peak of the Meridian Rushing Realm, couldn’t break his defense.

Thus, under the stunned gaze of the onlookers, Yun Xiao’s right arm, glowing with red-gold light, fiercely struck one of the approaching Sword Gangs.

The next moment, the entire arena hall suddenly fell silent because the events on the stage caught them all off guard.
