AST 1766 - Meridians Cut-off and Acupoint Clearing Hands

Qing Shui didn't dare to be negligent now. Speed was equivalent to power, everything was brittle in the face of the ultimate speed. But, it was not a piece of cake to achieve the ultimate speed.

Qing Shui kept calm. Heightened Focused Concentration and Yin-Yang Image allowed him to clear his mind. He could distinctly see the track of the dashing Sacred Moon Stallion.

"Qing Shui!"

Muyun Qingge yelled anxiously and then rushed over upon seeing Qing Shui being blown away.

"I'm fine, no worries, take good care of yourself," Qing Shui replied hastily.

"Don't worry, Qingge, the Sacred Moon Stallion doesn't kill," Sheng Jun smiled.

The Sacred Moon Stallion possessed an extensive sacred and pure power. It would not kill even when offended. However, it would beat him up seriously. It was none of the Sacred Moon Stallion's business whether the offender could escape alive then.

Qing Shui's figure moved rapidly like a phantom and evaded the attack firmly. The second transformation of Yin-Yang Image enhanced Qing Shui's battle skills many folds.

But it was not unlimited. Once the speed got beyond Qing Shui's boundaries, he wouldn't be able to avoid it despite holding the powerful Yin-Yang Image.

Fortunately, this Sacred Moon Stallion didn't exceed Qing Shui's speed limit.

Saintly Hands!

Qing Shui's hands abruptly turned jade white and almost transparent. He swiftly evaded and laid his hands on the neck of the Sacred Moon Stallion.

Neigh!

Once again, Qing Shui backed away from the Sacred Moon Stallion, awaiting its subsequent attack. At that moment, his fighting spirit was high since he had greatly benefited from the previous encounters.

Sheng Jun was dumbstruck to see Qing Shui's movements. It was a shame that nobody saw her seductive look as she opened her tiny mouth. Her pristine clear eyes were as bright as the sparkling stars.

No words could describe her current astonishment, a man whose strength was much lower than the Sacred Moon Stallion, could surprisingly compete against its speed……

Even an existence, who was a few times stronger than the Sacred Moon Stallion, couldn't avoid its attack.

Qing Shui hit the Sacred Moon Stallion with his palm and it shocked him. The palm didn't hurt the Sacred Moon Stallion for even a bit despite falling on its fragile neck.

A jade-white ray of light emerged on the Sacred Moon Stallion's body.

Sacred Light Guardian!

This was one of the Sacred Moon Stallion's Innate Skills, not only could it void major damages, it could also heal major injuries.

The Sacred Moon Stallion sacrificed spiritual energy to gain the powerful body and speed. Its attack possessed the abilities to hit the target across obstacles and a high probability to ignore their defense.

Qing Shui was a little depressed now that he realized it was difficult to harm it using the normal attacks. Suddenly, he recalled the Dragon-capturing Hands and wanted to try it on the Sacred Moon Stallion.

Qing Shui acted at once, his hand waved like a flash of shadow.

Dragon-capturing Hands!

Roar!

The Dragon-capturing Hands was a definite strike. Qing Shui was not afraid of squeezing it to death, that was unrealistic with his own strength. What Qing Shui wanted was to restrict him, things would be feasible if the target was successfully restricted.

Boom!

The binding skill was not successful. Qing Shui didn't know that the Sacred Moon Stallion had a high resistance against debuffs. It would have bound the other demonic beasts or humans, but not the Sacred Moon Stallion.

Subsequently, Qing Shui tried several times together with Dragon Claw Crushing Gold Chant and Emperor's Qi. Finally, he almost managed to keep up with the Sacred Moon Stallion's speed.

Qing Shui didn't feel anything, only a bit upset. However, Sheng Jun was taken aback to the extent that she lost her words. He couldn't be described with the word 'devilish' anymore.

More than 15 minutes passed unknowingly, Qing Shui felt his energy running out fast. The Sacred Moon Stallion was invulnerable and nimble, it was hard to defeat him in a short while. If it was not for Qing Shui's powerful body, he would have been beaten pretty badly.

Qing Shui promised Sheng Jun to help her taming the Sacred Moon Stallion. He would like to keep his promise. The Sacred Moon Stallion didn't really make Qing Shui mad, but rather feel challenged, let's see who would eventually succumb to the other.

Wood Vines!

Vine Entanglement!Bloodthirsty Demonic Vines!

Qing Shui continued using powerful binding skills, yet, the Sacred Moon Stallion found a way out every time. Initially, Qing Shui didn't suppose to use the Bloodthirsty Demonic Vines, considering the speed of the Sacred Mood Stallion.

The Dragon-capturing Hands was an absolute hit, though ineffective. He was uncertain whether the success rate was low, or the opponent's immunity was too strong.

Qing Shui could successfully hit the opponent but he couldn't harm it.

Acupoint!

Meridian!

Qing Shui's eyes brightened. Clenching his fists, he performed the Taichi Duality Steps. He turned illusory as Ying and Yang, then he dashed towards the Sacred Moon Stallion.

Meridians Cut-off and Acupoint Clearing Hands!

Humans had Eight Extra Vessels and Acupoints, so did the demonic beasts, albeit different names and locations. Qing Shui didn't know the names of Acupoints, yet, he knew where to find them and the effects of clearing them.

Once again he evaded the Sacred Moon Stallion. Qing Shui held a fist on his right and bent his middle finger. The slight bulge on his joint hit right at the end of Sacred Moon Stallion's left front thigh.

Inch force!

Qing Shui exploded with his strongest inch force as he hit the spot. The inch force could greatly disregard the defense and hit the inner part of the Sacred Moon Stallion, penetrating all defense.

From his past experience, this was more effective than breaking the bones. The skeletons of Sacred Moon Stallion was indeed strong and firm. Yet, Qing Shui tapped on its Meridian and Acupoint. Nobodies had a rigid or absolutely solid Acupoints.

Doubtlessly, Acupoint clearing would be ineffective if tapped on the surface. The Sacred Moon Stallion's thigh was as wide as the waistlines of several men. Hence, it would be harmless without inch force and penetrating power.

It was difficult to harm the Sacred Moon Stallion's skeleton or organs, at least it was not achievable by Qing Shui's current strength.

Bang!

A clear and loud noise came out. Sheng Jun and Muyun Qingge watched in astonishment as the Sacred Moon Stallion was thrown ten meters away by Qing Shui. The 20 meters long Sacred Moon Stallion was gigantic compared to Qing Shui.

Neigh!

The Sacred Moon Stallion let out a frail cry while retreating!

In the food chain, one must subdue the other in order to eat them. Qing Shui figured out the way to suppress the Sacred Moon Stallion now. Otherwise, even with his strength doubled, it would probably still hard to beat it, if he wasn't using his strength wisely.

However, Qing Shui regained his dominance now, his figure chased after it and gave out another fist.

Bang!

In a flash, he appeared behind the Sacred Moon Stallion like a phantom.

Bang!

The Sacred Moon Stallion gave a lightning-like kick to Qing Shui but he avoided it firmly.

Neigh!

As Qing Shui started to underestimate the Sacred Moon Stallion, thinking it was easy, its spiritual sense rose tremendously. In a loud and clear scream, Qing Shui spotted its leg kicking over.

"Qing Shui, watch out, that's the Sacred Light Hit!
