The Legend of the Condor Heroes: From Being Expelled from Peach Blossom Island

Chapter 357 The Legend of the Condor Heroes Version of the Bat Prince

Princess Yuzhu added, "The power of the Great Sumeru Vajra is truly impervious to swords and spears, and difficult to be harmed by weapons, fists, or kicks, just like an invincible Vajra."

Wu Chengyu pondered to himself, realizing that he had never heard of such a martial art before. He had a general impression of various martial arts in the fifteen martial arts novels written by Jin Yong, and even possessed hundreds of manuals himself, but this name was truly unheard of.

Judging from the name, it should belong to Buddhism, but this martial art is nowhere to be found in Jin Yong's martial arts world from the time of Tian Long Ba Bu to the time of The Deer and the Cauldron.

Not only in the Jin Yong school, but also in other Gu Long, Wen Ruian, Huang Yi, and Liang Yusheng novels, he doesn't know much about this martial art, but it seems that it doesn't exist there either.

Of course, if a typical martial art from another system were to appear at this time, such as Little Li's Flying Dagger, Heartbreaking Arrow, or Longevity Mantra, the world would be in chaos.

However, based on Wu Chengyu's current understanding of this world, this is the world of The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Although there are more unknowns and new characters, that is due to the limitations of the original work and is definitely not a crossover martial arts world.

Of course, having traveled to this point, Wu Chengyu had long understood one thing: the vast world before him was a real world, not just the people and events in the Legend of the Condor Heroes novel. The so-called Five Greats were merely a ranking in the martial arts world.

Beyond the martial arts world, in the mountains and fields, and even within the imperial palace, there are always figures unknown to the world. Just because Jin Yong didn't write about them doesn't mean they don't exist, nor does it mean they are inferior to the Five Greats. In fact, it's debatable whether these people even acknowledge the Five Greats' ranking.

Moreover, in the Jin-style martial arts, the only pure external training techniques besides the ubiquitous Iron Shirt and the Golden Bell Cover, which have a lower limit comparable to Iron Shirt and an extremely high upper limit, can be considered divine skills, such as the Vajra Indestructible Body or the Thirteen Body Training techniques that Wu Chengyu encountered before.

The number is far too small, just like how Jin Yong (the author of the novel) looked down on or paid little attention to this kind of clumsy kung fu that involved getting beaten up, so he rarely wrote about it.

The Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill emphasizes strength. With greater strength, the body will naturally be stronger, but it does not mean that the body's defense will be strong. At least when the Golden Wheel Monk appeared, he never actively used his physical body to block the opponent's weapon.

Considering that even Princess Yuzhu, who possesses the Supreme Pure Yang Skill, is slightly inferior to Weiming Tieyu, this Great Sumeru Vajra Force must also be at the level of a divine skill. Wu Chengyu already roughly knows the power of this kind of external martial arts technique.

Wu Chengyu looked at Wei Ming Tieyu and Wu Qianyu, who were facing off. Although Wei Ming Tieyu's eyes were fixed on Wu Qianyu and he did not seem very wary, he was indeed as immovable as a mountain.

On the contrary, Wu Qianyu seemed to be on high alert, but he was also a little nervous. It seemed that he had indeed suffered a lot at the hands of Wei Ming Tieyu in the past and was a little guilty.

Wu Chengyu couldn't help but ask, "Every external martial arts technique has a weakness. I don't believe that the vital points of the human body are all impenetrable."

This world is ultimately a low-level martial arts world. Even top-tier external martial arts techniques can achieve the ability to shrink the yang energy into the abdomen, but there are definitely weaknesses. The eyes are a prime example of such weaknesses. If it were Wu Chengyu, he would definitely attack the opponent's eyes first.

It's nothing like those high-fantasy martial arts worlds where you don't even need to close your eyes; you can just use the pupils of your eyes to block weapon attacks—that's a bit of an exaggeration.

Furthermore, the weaknesses of the body tempering techniques are all secrets, and practitioners never reveal them to others. In the original novel, Chen Xuanfeng was stabbed to death by Guo Jing with a dagger because his weakness was in his navel. At that time, he was completely unprepared for Guo Jing, who happened to be carrying a sharp dagger and, by sheer bad luck, stabbed him in the navel.

Chen Xuanfeng is arguably the most unjustly killed of the top-tier martial arts masters in The Legend of the Condor Heroes. This can only be attributed to the protagonist's halo; otherwise, the Seven Heroes of Jiangnan would have been wiped out by Chen Xuanfeng long ago.

Therefore, in Wu Chengyu's eyes, the power of the Great Sumeru Vajra was nothing special.

Princess Yuzhu, however, explained with a solemn expression: "Weiming Tieyu has extremely high martial arts talent and quick reaction in battle. He can always neutralize our attacks with the simplest moves. Even if we want to hit his eyes, he can neutralize them. Moreover, he comes from a noble family, so we cannot use methods that could blind him."

We've tried to find his weaknesses in our past fights, but we haven't been able to. We've tried his throat, temples, ribs, lower abdomen, and even his groin, but none of them are his weak points.

To defeat him, one would need a truly divine weapon, or power so great that even external martial arts techniques couldn't withstand it, but neither of us can do that right now.

Wu Chengyu pondered to himself that he could actually do it. With all his internal energy and the strength of a thousand pounds, he could unleash a powerful and enchanted fist technique, which would definitely overwhelm the opponent and forcefully break through their defenses. Or perhaps his Black and White Impermanence were also divine weapons, but now was not the time for him to step forward.

As the two were talking, the people below the stage finally made their move, or rather, Wu Qianyu lost her composure first. Wei Ming Tieyu's imposing aura remained high, putting immense pressure on Wu Qianyu. Feeling agitated, Wu Qianyu had no choice but to make the first move.

He used the Lingbo Weibu technique, circling around Weiming Tieyu. Every step was mysterious, and many figures appeared in the arena. However, these were not Wu Chengyu's clones.

Wu Chengyu's Shadow Clone Technique allows his clones to appear almost simultaneously and stay briefly, while Wu Qianyu's Lightness Skill only allows one figure to disappear while another appears from a different angle, with each disappearance occurring in a blind spot for the enemy.

However, to be able to do this, his lightness skill is already rare in the world. There is also the bonus of Lingbo Weibu. However, Wu Chengyu always felt that his method was wrong and that he should not have fully exerted the power of Lingbo Weibu.

He asked Princess Yuzhu again, "Those who cultivate external martial arts techniques are almost always not very good at light footwork. I have also experienced the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique), and I am ashamed to admit that I am inferior to it. It is indeed a top-notch light footwork technique, which is breathtaking. As long as Young Master Wu uses his light footwork to maneuver, he should be invincible." Princess Yuzhu sighed and said, "That should have been the case, but unfortunately, for some reason, my junior brother's light footwork is always ineffective against Weiming Tieyu."

As soon as Princess Yuzhu finished speaking, the situation on the field suddenly changed. Wu Qianyu launched the first attack. His figure disappeared again and reappeared behind Weiming Tieyu the next second. He used the Xiaoyao Zhemei Hand, his hand like a crane's beak, to attack several major acupoints on Weiming Tieyu's back.

But before he could actually get close, or even extend his hands, Wei Ming Tieyu seemed to know in advance where Wu Qianyu would appear. He simply took a big step forward and quickly turned around.

Just before Wu Qianyu appeared and attacked, he delivered a powerful kick. The speed of his kick was no less than that of Wu Chengyu's Gale Kick Technique. The key was that the timing was perfect. It was as if Wu Qianyu was offering herself up to be kicked.

Wu Qianyu hurriedly dodged, changing direction repeatedly, launching surprise attacks on Wei Ming Tieyu from impossible angles. Her attacks were lightning-fast and extremely ruthless.

But the outcome was the same. Wei Ming Tie Yu could always detect Wu Qian Yu's movements in advance. He didn't need to use his lightness skill. His method was simple: take a step back or forward to create space, and then strike Wu Qian Yu with his iron legs and iron palms. His strength was extraordinary, forcing Wu Qian Yu to not dare to fight him head-on.

Wu Qianyu's lightness skill was indeed impressive, and he managed to launch a sneak attack a few times. However, his attacks had no effect on Wei Ming Tieyu, as they were blocked by Wei Ming Tieyu's external martial arts technique, and he was not injured at all.

Wei Ming Tie Yu's palm and leg strength were both superior to Wu Qian Yu's. However, after a few hard clashes, Wu Qian Yu's breathing became somewhat disordered, and it seemed that her internal organs had been injured.

Princess Yuzhu sighed, "It's always like this. I don't know when it started, but Weiming Tieyu has mastered a method that we've never known."

He always seemed to be able to anticipate his junior brother's attacks, dodge them first, and then launch a powerful counterattack.

He seemed oblivious when his junior brother hit him, but if his junior brother were to be hit by him, he would surely be injured.

My junior colleague and I reviewed the incident many times afterward, but we still couldn't understand how Wei Ming Tieyu had managed to do it.

Wu Chengyu had been observing the situation on the field. He first ruled out the "Entering the Microscopic Realm". Wei Ming Tieyu's fighting style was indeed very similar to the "Entering the Microscopic Realm", but it was obvious that this guy was still far from the "Entering the Microscopic Realm". Even if the Great Sumeru Vajra Force was very powerful, he was not among the top experts, let alone touching the threshold of the "Entering the Microscopic Realm".

Wu Chengyu carefully observed every subtle movement of Weiming Tieyu, including changes in his expression.

When this guy was surrounded by Wu Qianyu, his eyes were half-closed, but he was clearly not using his eyes to observe the situation. At the same time, his mouth was a bit strange, always half-open, as if he was saying something, but no sound came out.

Most importantly, this guy's ears were constantly twitching slightly up and down, which Wu Chengyu would not have noticed if he hadn't had amazing eyesight.

Wu Chengyu now roughly understood Weiming Tieyu's secret. He also opened his mouth halfway and used his "talking technique" to emit an audio signal, or rather, an ultrasonic wave, that normal people could not hear. This was the greatest secret of the "talking technique".

As Wu Chengyu's ultrasonic waves appeared in the training ground below, Wei Ming Tieyu was instantly thrown into disarray and lost his composure. Wu Qianyu, who was attacking with all her might, seized the opportunity and successfully attacked him several times in succession.

Wu Qianyu's internal strength was not to be underestimated. These few full-force attacks landed solidly on Wei Ming Tieyu, causing Wei Ming Tieyu to frown.

Ultimately, it's a low-level martial arts world. No matter how powerful Princess Yuzhu described the Great Sumeru Vajra Force, it still has limitations. Wei Ming Tieyu lost his composure just now and didn't have time to defend himself, so he was injured in those few blows. However, his external martial arts skills are indeed impressive, so the injury wasn't serious and didn't affect his strength.

But pain is inevitable, and he didn't take any drugs to numb himself. In short, after fighting for so long, Wei Ming Tieyu has finally come out on the losing end.

Princess Yuzhu was overjoyed and couldn't help but speak up to cheer for Wu Qianyu.

Wu Chengyu kept his identity and name hidden. He had just used his persuasive skills to verify his own ideas.

Wei Ming Tieyu's method of dealing with Wu Qianyu's lightness skill was very simple. He should also have been born with excellent hearing, but it was definitely not at Wu Chengyu's level, but it was far superior to others.

This guy also somehow learned a technique that allows him to emit ultrasonic waves.

When encountering a master of lightness skills like Wu Qianyu, he was like a bat, using ultrasound and his hearing to locate her. No matter how superb Wu Qianyu's lightness skills were or how mysterious her footwork was, she would be detected immediately if she came within two zhang of him.

On the surface, he appears to be a brute practicing physical martial arts, but he plays at a very high level and is a Bat Prince with discerning eyes.
