Before Dongfang Sheng could stabilize himself, the second palm strike was already in front of him. He clenched his teeth and gathered his Qi to block the attack. Close combat was not his forte. If he wanted to barely dodge, the other party would definitely have more powerful moves, making it even more difficult to resist. He could only rely on his deep internal strength to fight the enemy head-on.
The man in black was Xiao Yuanshan. Seeing Dongfang Sheng's palm coming at him, he snorted coldly and did not change his move. The two of them collided with their palms. Although Dongfang Sheng's Nine Yang Divine Skill was powerful, he did not know much about the application of Internal Strength in palm techniques. He had always gathered his internal strength and struck out with one palm. That day at Mantuo Villa, he had been able to block all of them. How could Xiao Yuanshan be compared to Madam Wang's lackeys? Dongfang Sheng only felt that this attack did not exert any strength. He was shocked and before he could react, the opponent's palm force pounced on him like a tidal wave. His old strength had been exhausted, and he had not yet gained new strength. His chest felt as if it had been struck by lightning. He spat out another mouthful of blood and flew backward. Fortunately, the Nine Yang Divine Skill had automatically protected Dongfang Sheng's meridians. Otherwise, he would have fallen to the ground and lost the strength to fight after being hit by the palm that was initially weak but then real.
Xiao Yuanshan was also slowed down by the counterforce of the Nine Yang Divine Skill and did not chase after him directly. Dongfang Sheng circulated his Genuine Qi in the air for a few rounds, and the tightness in his chest gradually disappeared. He turned around and landed twenty feet away. Xiao Yuanshan didn't give the other party a chance to catch his breath. He leaped up from the ground and pounced over. Dongfang Sheng pulled away from Xiao Yuanshan, and it was easy for him to use the divine power of flicking his fingers. He held a stone between his right middle finger and thumb and flew straight for Xiao Yuanshan. Xiao Yuanshan had just exchanged a palm strike with Dongfang Sheng and thought that Dongfang Sheng's kung fu was only so-so. Now that he had been severely injured by Xiao Yuanshan, he had started to look down on Dongfang Sheng. However, Xiao Yuanshan didn't know that this flick was his opponent's ultimate skill. He didn't expect the force contained in this stone to be so fierce and strange. He didn't dodge it and pointed his finger to meet it head-on.
With a " Ka " sound, the stone fingers collided, and the stone exploded into pieces. Xiao Yuanshan roared and fell to the ground with his right hand. He had been careless in the attack just now. When his finger came into contact with the finger flick, his palm bone was actually broken by the force of the Breaking Symbol Art.
Dongfang Sheng did not feel relaxed after his successful attack. Firstly, his internal injuries were not light. Secondly, although he seemed to have regained the upper hand just now, he could not help but feel a chill run down his spine when he saw the murderous aura emanating from Xiao Yuanshan's body become so real.
Xiao Yuanshan's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like an enraged beast.”He let out a howl and charged at Dongfang Sheng. Dongfang Sheng knew that the other party would not stop no matter what he said. If he hesitated, he would die. He did not care that the other party was Qiao Feng's father. He used his finger flick divine power with all his strength and fired six shots at once. Xiao Yuanshan only avoided his vitals and used his body to resist two finger flicks. Then, he slapped his palm toward Dongfang Sheng, whose middle door was wide open. Dongfang Sheng did not expect his opponent to be so brave. Seeing the palm coming at his chest, he barely turned his body and took the blow with his shoulder. He spat out another mouthful of blood and tried to escape.
Xiao Yuanshan was not willing to give up. He rushed forward and entangled Dongfang Sheng like a mad tiger. He did not care about his injuries and only attacked. Dongfang Sheng cried bitterly in his heart. It was not good for him to fight Xiao Yuanshan to the death, so he could only hold on bitterly. Fortunately, Xiao Yuanshan's attack was not as real as the one he had just fought. Otherwise, Dongfang Sheng would have died long ago. However, Dongfang Sheng had suffered internal injuries from the beginning. His internal breath was already in a mess and gradually could not support it. Suddenly, he could not circulate his genuine Qi. He was hit three times in a row and tumbled down the cliff. Dongfang Sheng only felt the world spinning, and his body felt like it was falling apart. Every part of his body was in pain, and he could only circulate his internal energy to protect his entire body. Suddenly, his vision went black, and he fainted.
Xiao Yuanshan, who was standing at the edge of the cliff, looked down the mountain. He laughed loudly and turned around.
Dongfang Sheng was muddle-headed and did not know where he was. He only felt that his body was suddenly hot and cold, and his whole body was in excruciating pain. His eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he could not open them no matter how hard he tried. There was only a trace of clarity left in his bier. Knowing that he was severely injured, he manipulated the Nine Suns Genuine Qi to circulate in his body.
After fainting and waking up countless times from the pain, Dongfang Sheng finally calmed down and his mind gradually became clear.
"Hmm…I'm not dead yet?" Dongfang Sheng woke up. He opened his eyes and saw a few rays of sunlight. He wanted to cover his eyes with his hands, but he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm, making him groan for a long time. Dongfang Sheng didn't dare to move. He circulated his Genuine Qi through his body a few times and couldn't help but feel sad. It turned out that with the Nine Yang Divine Skill protecting his body, his internal organs had not suffered much damage. However, his bones had shattered into hundreds of pieces and he had completely lost his ability to move. Even Dongfang Sheng, who had always been an easy-going person, found it hard to accept.
"In this deep forest, let alone a doctor, I can't even meet a person. Am I going to die here?”After a while, Dongfang Sheng slowly calmed down. He had always thought that regret was the most useless thing and that solving the problem at hand was the key. "Qiu Qianchi is also crippled, but he's still alive and well.”Dongfang Sheng comforted himself and looked up to look for the fruit tree. Dongfang Sheng looked at the trees around him. He didn't recognize them either, but he was sure that there were no fruits on them, which made Dongfang Sheng a little disappointed. In fact, when he thought of Qiu Qianchi's appearance, his heart shuddered. There was no way he would agree to live like this.
"It's not that bad yet. Qiu Qianchi's tendons are all broken, but I only broke my bones.”Dongfang Sheng made up his mind." In order to not be disabled in the future, I'll try my best."”He remembered the Bone Forging Tendon Changing Technique in the Nine Yang Scripture, which could temporarily change the position of the bones. As long as he reconnected his broken bones and rested for a few days, he should be able to recover.
Dongfang Sheng didn't delay any further. He immediately circulated his energy throughout his body. He heard a series of crackling sounds coming from his body, and his bones moved with his consciousness. It was so painful that he gritted his teeth, but he could only endure it. Later on, he discovered that when he circulated his internal energy, all his bones would automatically and slowly return to their original positions. Thus, he used his internal energy to seal a few of his sensitive meridians. He did not care about the movements of each bone and only circulated the Bone-Forging Tendon Changing Technique crazily in his body.
After an unknown period of time, Dongfang Sheng finally stopped circulating the Genuine Qi in his body when he saw the moon above the treetops. Unsealing the meridians he had sealed, he immediately felt pain, but it was completely different from the original pain. Dongfang Sheng examined his body carefully and let out a long sigh of relief. All the bones in his body had been reconnected. Now, all he had to do was wait for them to heal themselves.
Dongfang Sheng used his internal energy to protect the bones that had just been reconnected. He slowly moved his body under a big tree and sat up straight against the trunk. Although the broken bones had been reconnected, the trouble had just begun. Bone healing required a long time, and in such a long time, where to get food was a problem. At the thought of this, Dongfang Sheng remembered that Zhang Wuji had also broken his legs after mastering the Nine Yang Divine Skill. Later, he had met a spider at the foot of the mountain, so he did not starve to death. "Could it be that this Nine Yang Divine Technique is so evil that the person who practices it will definitely break his bones?”Dongfang Sheng couldn't help but mock himself. He also knew that it was very difficult for him to have the same luck as Zhang Wuji. He could only hope that he would get better soon and be able to move a little more so that he could hunt some animals and wild fruits to fill his stomach.
After starving for an entire day, Dongfang Sheng could not take it anymore. However, he still could not move. All his bones were in the process of recovery. In fact, it had been many days since he fell off the cliff. He had not eaten a single grain of rice, of course, he was so hungry that he was dizzy.
"I'm afraid that there's no one like me who starved to death in the martial arts world.”Dongfang Sheng muttered to himself. Although he said that, Dongfang Sheng did not want to give up the chance to live. But now, there was nothing he could do. What Dongfang Sheng could do now was to consume as little energy as possible, just like hibernation, and wait for his body to recover. He once again sealed a few of his meridians to reduce his vital functions to the lowest. Even his breathing became indistinct. Only the Nine Yang True Qi was silently circulating throughout his body. Unknowingly, his mind had completely entered a state of meditation that was deeper than sleep.
Early in the morning, a little bird landed on Dongfang Sheng's shoulder. For many days, Dongfang Sheng had been sitting under the tree without moving. He did not even have a breath. The birds could not even sense the difference between him and the trees around him. When a ray of sunlight passed through the shadows of the trees and swept across Dongfang Sheng's face, Dongfang Sheng woke up and opened his eyes.
"Hmm?" After Dongfang Sheng woke up, he didn't feel any weakness in his body. Instead, he felt refreshed. He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. He stretched out his hand, but he didn't feel anything strange. He was overjoyed. It seemed that his bones had completely recovered.
Dongfang Sheng opened his inner vision and found that his entire body had recovered. He was about to rejoice when he suddenly felt something was wrong. It turned out that his internal energy was not as hot and surging as before. It seemed to have returned to its original state before he practiced, and he could not feel the existence of true energy.
"Ah…I actually lost all my internal strength…but fortunately, I managed to survive.”
Although his hard work for nearly a year had been wasted, Dongfang Sheng did not feel too disappointed. After all, in his opinion, martial arts could be practiced again. There was still hope. Dongfang Sheng stopped thinking about it. He stood up and stretched his muscles. Dongfang Sheng shook his head with a bitter smile as he touched the stones hidden in his sleeve. He flicked one out. He thought that he had lost his inner energy and was just playing with it in the way he used the finger flick. With a dull thud, Dongfang Sheng could not help but turn around. He was surprised to see that the stone had pierced through a tree. He looked at his hands in disbelief.
Looking closely, his hands were thinner than before, but his skin had become much fairer. He rolled up his sleeves and found that his skin seemed to have become somewhat translucent. Dongfang Sheng immediately realized that his body must have undergone some earth-shaking changes. He calmed down and circulated his Qi to check again. The Nine Suns Genuine Qi in his body was still nowhere to be seen. He only felt some almost imperceptible undercurrents surging in the meridians all over his body. It was the same in his Dantian. Dongfang Sheng was puzzled. When he was learning internal energy in Shaolin, he had never heard of such a situation. However, it seemed that not only did his inner force not disappear, but it also increased. Dongfang Sheng was also very happy. With a light leap, he didn't deliberately raise his breath and actually jumped forty feet high. His right foot lightly tapped on the mountain wall and he jumped several feet higher. Dongfang Sheng actually floated up the cliff that was nearly a thousand feet high, as if he was taking a stroll in a courtyard. His clothes fluttered in the wind in the air, as if he was an immortal.
