The Villain's Counterattack

The dragon roars in the sky and shakes the world, and the wind and clouds gather to swim in shallow water!

Although he surrendered to the Demon Lord and was protected by Wuyazi (Duanlang), the Clay Buddha could have remained in hiding, unlike in the original novel where he had to hide from place to place and rely on the Fire Monkey to survive. After all, the natural poison in his body had long been cured by the Heavenly Medicine and the Tears of Bodhidharma.

However, as a man who knew his destiny, the clay Buddha was not willing to do so, so he resolutely chose to return to the world and follow his destiny.

In order to create the identity of the Clay Buddha, he even had to disguise himself and put on makeup, making his old face look somewhat scary, and always keeping the Fire Monkey by his side. After all, it was "common sense" that the Clay Buddha was punished by heaven and needed the Fire Monkey to relieve the pain and treatment. As the saying goes, if you want to see the Clay Buddha, you must first take the Fire Monkey. This is where it comes from.

The day that the Clay Buddha has been waiting for has finally arrived. Bu Jingyun, Nie Feng and Qin Shuang of the Tianxia Association, under the orders of Xiongba, are searching for the Clay Buddha. They track down the information about the Fire Monkey along the way. On the other side, the Kuaiyi Five and Wushuang City are also searching for the Fire Monkey.

So there was a battle between Tianxiahui and Shi Wuzun and Dugu Ming. Clay Buddha was also a ruthless person. In this situation, he was willing to let his granddaughter appear. He called out the name of Fire Monkey, thus exposing his own identity and being held hostage by Tianxiahui.

Dugu Ming ambushed Nie Feng, and both were injured. Bu Jingyun and Qin Shuang gained the upper hand and finally captured the Clay Buddha.

Wushuang City retreated without success. Just as they walked a short distance, an old man blocked their way. This old man had white eyebrows and beard, but his face was like a baby, and his aura was like an immortal. However, the moment he spoke, he made people feel uncomfortable: "Boy, are you sure you used the Dragon Subduing Divine Kick, and not the old lady's foot?"

Dugu Ming, who was already extremely depressed, almost vomited a mouthful of blood. Shi Wuzun flashed in front of Dugu Ming in an instant, but was slapped away by the old man. As the man swung his palm, the shadow of a golden dragon emerged, and a dragon roared. Shi Wuzun was knocked aside before he could even react.

"Dragon Subduing Palm?!" Shi Wuzun and Dugu Ming were shocked, but the old man did not give them any time to react and slapped Dugu Ming with another palm.

The palm wind was whistling and the powerful energy was awe-inspiring. Dugu Ming saw the dragon-shaped attacking him and could only resist with all his might, and quickly unleashed the Dragon Subduing Kick.

The two men were enjoying the fight with palms and kicks. Shi Wuzun was also a smart man, and his experience in the martial arts world was far greater than Dugu Ming. He immediately discovered that although the old man was domineering and his aura was chilling, and his moves were quite quick and decisive, with each palm strike being standard and beautiful, the true energy contained in them was seriously insufficient and could not really hurt Dugu Ming.

Is he training Dugu Ming?

No, or rather, he was intentionally showing his ability to subdue the dragon!

The Dragon Subduing Palm and the Dragon Subduing Kick have the same origin, many of their artistic conceptions are similar, and even many of the names of the moves are exactly the same, except that the Dragon Subduing Kick has an additional killing move: Kill the dragon and seek the truth!

Dugu Ming is not really stupid and idiotic. After experiencing the disaster of his family being wiped out, he has grown a lot and is far from being the idle playboy he used to be. After realizing the old man's intention, he reacted quickly and used the leg techniques simultaneously with the old man's palm techniques, and carefully experienced the differences and relationship between the two.

"Not so foolish." The old man's hands kept moving, performing the Dragon Subduing Palm moves one by one in sequence, but he slightly reduced the strength, focusing more on demonstration. Dugu Ming's pressure suddenly dropped, and he also slowly withdrew his strength. However, his strength was far inferior to the old man before him, so whether he withdrew his strength or not had little impact on the battle situation.

The demonstration of the Dragon Subduing Palm was quickly completed. The old man pushed out with both palms and threw Dugu Ming far away. The latter staggered back a few steps, straightened his clothes, and was about to thank the old man, but he saw the other party put his hands behind his back and performed a set of leg techniques, which was surprisingly his greatest reliance: the Dragon Subduing Leg.

Every move looked familiar, but when these moves were performed from the old man's legs, they were several times more powerful than his own.

"Silly boy, what are you standing there for? Why don't you learn carefully?" The old man snorted angrily. Dugu Ming came back to his senses instantly, and watched the old man's Dragon Subduing Leg carefully with his bright eyes.

The old man repeated the Dragon Subduing Kick three times. The first time he performed it very slowly, with each move being very precise, and each move was performed separately, so Dugu Ming could see it clearly and many details could be seen clearly.

The old man still performed the moves sequentially the second time, but this time it was more fluent and coherent. The power of the moves combined seemed to be greatly enhanced, and it was more difficult to catch flaws and weaknesses. After all, what is flowing is alive.

On the third time, the old man didn't care and performed the Dragon Subduing Kick at will. The order of the moves was all messed up, but this way of using it seemed more agile and imaginative, making it hard to guard against. Dugu Ming's eyes lit up when he saw it.

"Boy, do you understand?" The old man slowly stopped practicing. Dugu Ming knelt down in front of the old man, kowtowed three times respectfully, and asked about the old man's identity.

"I am just a hermit in the mountains. I like to collect knowledge books in the world. Martial arts is just one of them. This Dragon Subduing Palm did not originate from the Beggars' Sect, and I don't have much connection with the Beggars' Sect. It's just that seeing you wasting your unique skills like this, I feel a little uncomfortable and can't help but give you some advice. I just hope you can pay attention and truly understand the meaning of Dragon Subduing. Don't let your magical skills be tarnished." After the old man finished speaking, he shook his hand and threw out a booklet.

"It's not true that the more magical skills you have, the better. It's the right way to specialize in one and then become proficient in all of them, especially for mediocre people. However, it's not so easy to move forward quickly on one leg. This Dragon Subduing Palm and the Dragon Subduing Leg have the same origin. Not only will it not hinder your practice, but it will be of great help. Moreover, having both the leg and the palm can enhance your combat power. Giving it to you today is like repaying a favor to the Sword Saint." After saying that, he turned and left.

Dugu Ming looked at the secret book in his arms, and a few big words were clearly visible on the cover: Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

Seeing the master leaving, Dugu Ming couldn't help but stand up and chase after him: "Senior, wait a minute, I..."

"When fate comes, it comes; when fate goes, it goes. Everything is up to fate and cannot be forced. The fate between you and me is limited to this. Don't force it." The old man said as he left quickly. Dugu Ming only received a porcelain bottle and said: "Before leaving, I will give you three elixirs. They can heal internal injuries and enhance your true energy. Although they will only increase your cultivation by ten years, it is better than nothing."

The old man came and went like the wind, his movements were graceful and elegant, but his speed was not slow at all. Even Shi Wuzun could not catch up with him, let alone Dugu Ming.

"What a remarkable person, it's a pity that he can't..." Dugu Ming looked at the empty space in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

Shi Wu Zun said, "Such a remarkable person must be a senior master. To be able to talk about friendship with the old Sword Saint, how can he be compared to an ordinary person? The Young City Lord has received his martial arts guidance and received the gift of magical skills secret manuals and miraculous elixirs. This is already a rare and precious thing, and it cannot be forced."

Having said that, he was thinking in his heart whether he could recruit this person through the Sword Saint. After all, from what he said, it seemed that he owed the Sword Saint a favor.

Wuyazi (Duanlang): I did watch the Sword Saint practice swordsmanship for half his life in Jiukong Wujie and gained many benefits from it, but the old Sword Saint didn't know me. Your wishful thinking is doomed to fail. The purpose of my coming here is not to repay the favor in a vague way, but to steal Dugu Ming's Dragon Subduing Leg, that's all.

"Hey, I stole your martial arts, and you turned around and thanked me. What a fool you are." The person who got the advantage suddenly increased his speed and chased after a scent.
