Martial Arts Crossover: Zhao Min, your sidekick is really something else.

Monks are supposed to be compassionate, but you can't see even a trace of that in them.

Regardless of who Xiao Yaoqing was or whether they had any grudges, they were determined to kill him on the spot.

A hint of coldness flashed in Xiao Yaoqing's eyes.

Two balls of silvery-white light appeared in his palms—the Iron Palm Skill, a secret technique of the Iron Palm Clan, which he had taken from Iron Palm Ruthless Yuchi Feng.

Immediately afterwards, a layer of lustrous, jade-like sheen appeared on the silvery-white surface.

The Quiet Lotus Palm of the Yihua Palace.

Three iron chains came crashing down from above, but Xiao Yaoqing stopped dodging and raised his hand to meet them.

"Clang! Clang!"

With two crisp sounds, he firmly grasped the chains in Du Nan and Du Jie's hands.

The force of the collision created a visible shockwave, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

Xiao Yaoqing's knees sank down.

The shock on the faces of Du Jie and Du Nan was even greater than before.

They never imagined that someone could actually withstand the chains of the Vajra Subduing Demon Circle with their bare body!

"How powerful must that explosive force and internal energy be?!"

"Is this some kind of humanoid monster?!"

Their hearts were in turmoil.

But Xiao Yaoqing only had two hands, and the chain in Du'e's hand was still smashing down, about to blow off the back of his head.

Xiao Yaoqing remained calm and composed.

A terrifying force surged from the soles of his feet, propelling him into the air and sending him soaring into the sky!

The Wudang Ladder Cloud Leap, the ultimate and perfect technique!

"boom!"

Du'e's iron chains crashed into the ground, scattering dirt and stones everywhere.

"rise!"

With a roar, Du'e pulled hard with both hands, tearing the chains buried in the ground and whipping them upwards towards Xiao Yaoqing.

Du Jie and Du Nan, who were being held by Xiao Yaoqing's chains, pulled down at the same time, trying to drag him back.

But none of the three noticed that Xiao Yaoqing's lips curled into a cold smile.

A single light-foot technique broke the Vajra Subduing Demon Circle? That's too weak.

Indeed, Xiao Yaoqing had that disdainful expression on his face.

He had already figured out how to break this formation.

It's neither the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth nor the Flower Shifting Palace's Flower Shifting Technique.

It is the ultimate lightness skill of the Yihua Palace—Heavenly Wind and Sea Rain.

When this lightness skill is mastered to its highest level, one can control the waves of the sea and even manipulate the clouds and rain in the sky.

The masters of the Yihua Palace can stand on a log and remain motionless amidst raging waves.

They can stay dry in a raging storm without getting a drop of water on them or their sleeves fluttering.

Xiao Yaoqing is not currently in the sea.

But the wind and rain can forcefully calm the raging waves.

The same principle can turn a calm and peaceful situation into a catastrophe that overturns the heavens and the earth.

Xiao Yaoqing activated the Wudang Ladder Cloud Leap, his figure rising into the air. He gripped the iron chains thrown by Du Jie and Du Nan tightly with both hands, his feet having no foothold, yet he spun half a circle in the air with sheer grit.

The range of rotation is not large.

While undergoing tribulation and hardship, one simultaneously feels an indescribable, eerie force that suddenly rebounds along the iron chain—fierce, unreasonable, as if someone has grabbed one's lifeline.

Following closely behind—

"ah--!"

Two screams rang out, filled with obvious panic.

The two brothers, who were originally sitting cross-legged in the hollow of the pine tree, were dragged directly out of the sky by Xiao Yaoqing. Their bodies involuntarily moved closer together in mid-air, with Xiao Yaoqing as the center and the iron chain as the radius—with a muffled bang, the two brothers collided face to face and crashed into each other.

It felt like a blow to their chest, a metallic sweetness rising to their throats, but they gritted their teeth and swallowed it back.

When Du'e saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "Oh no!"

His iron chain was hurtling upwards, heading straight for Xiao Yaoqing. If it were to strike now, it would likely break the bones and tendons of his two junior brothers before hitting Xiao Yaoqing!

Without a second thought, Du'e immediately exerted force in the opposite direction and forcefully pulled the iron chain back.

But his upward strike just now had used almost all of his internal energy. Now, the sudden reverse pull caused the backlash of his internal energy to directly collide with his meridians.

"Well--"

A sickly red flush rose to Du'e's face, and thick blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, slowly dripping down.

Du Jie and Du Nan were still being dragged along by Xiao Yaoqing, heading straight for the sky.

But Xiao Yaoqing had already resolved all the crises. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and a layer of dark purple light suddenly appeared on his hand gripping the iron chain.

The Palace of Transplanting Flowers—Transplanting Flowers and Replacing Jade!

He twisted both hands suddenly.

"Ping!"

A sharp crack rang out, followed by a continuous series of popping sounds. The Vajra Subduing Demon Ring chains in the hands of Du Jie and Du Nan shattered instantly, turning into countless black fragments in mid-air that fluttered down to the ground.

As for the person undergoing tribulation and hardship, it was as if they were violently knocked away by some invisible force.

"boom!"

The two men slammed hard against the pine tree trunks where they had been sitting. With a sharp crack, a tooth-grinding sound of wood splitting rang out, and the two thick pine trees snapped in half.

"Thump—"

"Thump—"

The two fell back into the tree hollow where they had been hiding. But now it was no longer a tree hollow; it had become two shallow pits. Fill them with some soil, put up a sign, and they would have ready-made graves.

"puff--"

Both Du Jie and Du Nan spat out two mouthfuls of blood, which splattered onto the shattered tree roots.

The three monks immediately sat down and began to regulate their internal energy.

But now, the way they looked at Xiao Yaoqing was completely different.

His eyes were practically bulging out of their sockets, and his face was contorted with a look of utter disbelief.

They never expected that this young man would take down all three of them in a single move!

Even more outrageous is that the Vajra Subduing Demon Circle, which they had practiced for decades, was actually torn open by brute force.

Could it be that they've been meditating for too long and have become disconnected from the outside world, unaware of when such a monstrous figure appeared in this world?

The three old monks simultaneously had the same thought: all these decades of sitting in meditation have been for nothing!

They were already at the peak back then, but now they've been so easily trampled underfoot by a mere kid?

The more I thought about it, the angrier I got, and I couldn't suppress the surging anger in my chest anymore.

Xiao Yaoqing, on the other hand, had already floated back to the ground.

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he muttered to himself:

"this one?"

"Am I that strong now?"

That's right.

The Vajra Subduing Demon Formation of the Three Shaolin Elders was so formidable that even a powerful figure like Zhang Wuji, along with two top masters, Yang Xiao and Yin Tianzheng, couldn't gain any advantage when they joined forces, let alone break the formation.

But now he's all alone, and he hasn't even mustered any strength!

Xiao Yaoqing still has quite a few trump cards up his sleeve.

For example, the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

There is also the Six Meridians Divine Sword, which is known as the number one sword in the world.

And what happened? He broke the Vajra Subduing Demon Circle with just a set of light-footed skills.

"Tsk tsk..."

Xiao Yao glanced at the three monks in front of him, feeling somewhat speechless:

"This level of skill is enough to call someone a top expert? They're so bad."

San Du was desperately trying to heal his injuries, but he dared not take his eyes off Xiao Yaoqing for even a moment.

They saw the look in Xiao Yaoqing's eyes, and their hearts skipped a beat at the same time.

That look... it's like a superior being looking at ants crawling on the ground.

Indeed, the contempt and disdain in Xiao Yaoqing's eyes were practically overflowing; he looked exactly like a villainous big boss.

Who would feel comfortable seeing this?

Not to mention three highly respected Shaolin monks!

At this age, with his seniority already established, how could he be mocked like this by a junior?

What does "forgetting oneself and the external world" mean?

Xiao Yaoqing really wanted to spit in their faces at their level of understanding.

At this moment, the three of them finally managed to calm down the turbulent blood pressure in their bodies.

Xiao Yaoqing's gaze was enough to infuriate Du Jie.

Without a word, Du Jie and Du Nan immediately began to execute hand seals, gathering their inner strength and unleashing another wave of attacks towards Xiao Yaoqing. Du E was not idle either, swinging the last remaining chain of the Vajra Subduing Demon Circle with tremendous force.

Xiao Yaoqing paused, stunned for a moment:

"Is it not over yet?"

Fine, they really think they can't do anything about them.

He glanced at the three people, a hint of helplessness on his face, and muttered something under his breath:

"Are you forcing me to take action?"

The words had barely left his mouth when a loud "bang" was heard.

With a muffled thud, the ground beneath Xiao Yaoqing's feet seemed to be crushed by a brute force, and dust suddenly exploded.

His figure shot out like a cannonball, heading straight towards the direction of the tribulation.

That's right, Xiao Yaoqing knew very well that Du Jie had the worst mouth.

So, beat him up first.

The Vajra Subduing Demon Circle had shattered into pieces, and nothing could stop Xiao Yaoqing anymore.

A faint halo appeared on his palm, and the power of the Quiet Lotus Palm had already taken shape.

Staring at the trembling eyes of the one undergoing tribulation, Xiao Yaoqing coldly uttered:

"If you're going to swear, then slap yourself!"

As he spoke, he slapped Du Jie's cheek directly with his palm.

-

Du'e gritted his teeth and roared, "Even if it costs me my life today, I will rid the martial world of this scourge!"

Du Jie was busy forming hand seals, trying to create distance and use ranged attacks to blast Xiao Yaoqing.

But Xiao Yaoqing's Heavenly Wind and Sea Rain were too fast; he didn't have time to react before the person was already right in front of him.

And judging from this posture, it seems like he's going to slap him across the face?

This is intolerable!

Du Jie hurriedly raised his hand, trying to stop Xiao Yaoqing's arm.

Du Nan, who was far away, was now free of his chains and couldn't offer any help in time. Only Du E, who still had his iron chains, swung them at Xiao Yaoqing without saying a word.

But no matter how fast they were, they couldn't match Xiao Yaoqing's hand speed.

"Slap! Slap!"

Two crisp sounds rang out, exploding cleanly and decisively.

Why are there two tones?

The first sound came from Xiao Yaoqing's arm slamming into Du Jie's raised hand, which he was using to shield his face. But Du Jie couldn't withstand the force of Xiao Yaoqing's blow.

And so came the second sound—

The hand that was undergoing the tribulation was forcefully slapped back onto its own face by Xiao Yaoqing's power.

Immediately following was a third crisp sound, the sound of Xiao Yaoqing's palm striking Du Jie's cheek squarely.

Du Jie felt a roar in his head, his vision went black for a moment, he swayed twice, and then collapsed to the ground.

However, he did not completely lose consciousness.

This alone shows that Du Jie's internal strength is far superior to that of Xian Yutong of the Huashan Sect and the Kunlun Elders.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully copied the supreme martial art, Vajra Finger!]

The system notification sounded in his mind, and Xiao Yaoqing's brows twitched slightly.

To be honest, this was a pleasant surprise.

The Shaolin Vajra Finger technique, viewed from today's perspective, doesn't really have anything particularly impressive about it.

But the system clearly states that this is a top-tier martial art.

Xiao Yaoqing knew perfectly well what was going on.

Looking across the entire martial arts world, there are only six people who still possess the Vajra Finger technique.
