Chapter 479 - Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The mighty and peerless palm-generated winds crashed against each other for more than half an hour in Bodhidharma Cave before they stopped, and the area became quiet again, but Happy did not come out of Bodhidharma Cave.

He was in Mount Song for more than ten days.

He came to Shaolin Temple because of master Kongxiang’s promise to him at Eternal Peace Temple. The favor the elites from the six great system-allocated sects owed to him and the promise they made to him was great. There was no way Happy would let go of such a beneficial condition.

Once Master Kongxiang personally came to receive him, Happy mentioned that he wished to have the chance to study Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill.

However, the path to obtain Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill was filled with great trials and tribulations.

Even though Shaolin Temple’s Master Kongxiang did not refuse Happy, Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill was incredibly profound, so no ordinary person would be able to master it even if they practiced it. If Happy did not have more than one hundred Comprehension points and his experience from his previous life to take over the conversation to turn it to the quest requirements, he might have already destroyed the path to get Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill.

However, the quest Master Kongxiang was also not easy!

The first request was to steal Dragon Immortal Grass from Divine Black Ape as well as retrieve Shaolin Temple’s ultimate technique, Flower-pinching Finger.

One of them required Happy to get something from an Inaction Realm NPC, and the other was Flower-pinching Finger, which was one of Shaolin Temple’s ultimate technique. Based on the value of the manual, Flower-pinching Finger was even better than Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill.

Happy relied on his resolve and experience to easily complete the quest Master Kongxiang gave him and officially obtain the series of quests in Punishment Mount to obtain Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill. He had to help one hundred monks who broke their vows to expiate themselves from their sins as well as reform Master of Breaking Vows, who had been staying in Bodhidharma Cave for thirty years, so that he could return to the path of kindness.

As of then, Happy had already reached the second stage of his quest, but he was stuck in Bodhidharma Cave of Punishment Mount for ten days.

He had wanted to use brute force to make the monk submit, but he had been sent flying out of Bodhidharma Cave with just one palm strike, which allowed him to realize that his plan was quite impossible. He calmed down then and thought of how it would be a good chance to practice Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

Master of Breaking Vows practiced fierce and strong techniques, and he usually did not like fancy skills. He fought and won against martial artists with strength alone!

This was something that fit the unique characteristic of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm!

Hence, Happy’s plan of quickly gaining Shaolin Temple’s Nine Yang Skill turned into him slowly understanding the essence of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm while he fought against Master of Breaking Vows.

In the beginning, he could not even receive a few blows from Master of Breaking Vows. Later on, he relied on the extraordinary domineering air from his indomitable spirit and fought head-on against Master of Breaking Vows even when he was heavily injured, and unexpectedly, he sensed the domineering presence and the abstruse secret within Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm.

It was indeed one of the strongest palm techniques in the world.

Not only could its damage stand supreme above others, its greatest profound secret lay in the dragon roar that contained a mighty momentum. It could not just strengthen the user’s body, but also weaken the opponent.

Each style could suppress one part of the opponent, while whenever the user attacked, it could continuously increase their momentum and might.

Happy advanced without turning back!

When he brought out the domineering presence of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, he could increase his momentum at an astonishing speed. With a mighty and monstrous palm will, a great wave of qi would surround his body, and when they were gathered together, they could strengthen his attacks as well as resist and weaken the enemy’s damage. What made them different from body fortifications, however, was that the palm will did not waste any qi, and it was constantly around.

It could be said that once Happy pushed Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm to the seventh realm, the damage of his palm technique surpassed that of his Flying Dragon Sword Technique at the ninth realm. However, when he executed his palm technique, each palm could deliver at most two hundred damage. With an increase in qi realm, it could reach nearly three hundred points.

If Happy delivered ten palm strikes, it would be equivalent to increasing his fighting prowess by a qi realm!

He relied on this to fight with increasing ease once he got through the first rocky period. He attacked faster while the might of the dragon’s roar that surrounded him allowed him to move at ease. He could execute his attacks smoothly, and they came with the might of an avalanche. Like that, he had the power to fight against an Inaction Realm martial artist.

And that was when Happy hadn’t had the time to get down the mountain and retrieve his weapon.

He had asked Heartless Iron to help him refine a pair of fourth-echelon Golden Gloves should he have the need for them while he practiced Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, but he did not have the chance to go down the mountain to pick them up.Read latest chapters at NovelFull

Of course, with Happy’s speed, as long as he seized the chance to understand the essence within the eighteen styles of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, it was not impossible for him to find himself in a situation where he could have his level surprisingly increase by leaps and bounds. He did not have a high demand for equipment because of it.

*****

But no matter what, Master of Breaking Vows was an Inaction Realm fighter. He was unlike the normal monks who broke vows and only knew how to fight and kill. When he saw Happy suddenly pull back, he habitually took two steps backwards, pushed his palms together, and called out the name of Buddha loudly.

“Amitabha! Young patron, your comprehension is astonishing, I am impressed.”

“Master, are you still unwilling to go back to the temple?” Happy asked as usual.

Master of Breaking Vows shook his head slowly. “You cannot force things when it comes to fate.”

“Even so, I will not give up! If water can corrode a stone after years of wear and tear, then you will go back eventually as well. I will come again.”

Happy left Bodhidharma Cave without turning back and circulated Emei Sect’s Nine Yang Skill outside the cave. He used qi continuously for Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm, which required a lot of it, and it started boiling and surging into his body in an endless stream at that moment.

Soon, he opened his eyes. He was high in spirits!

Happy observed the situation of his Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm.

He had improved after fighting head-on against an Inaction Realm martial artist for more than half an hour. It went up by half a level, which was much better than if he had practiced against martial artists in a conventional manner.

“Not bad, I lasted for an extra minute this time.”

Happy sucked in a deep breath in satisfaction before he looked up to stare at Bodhidharma Cave. He stood up, ignoring the fact that he had not gotten rid of the dust, and just walked into Bodhidharma Cave.

‘Again!’

Soon, astonishing sounds of things clashing against each other rose from Bodhidharma Cave once more!

“ROAR!”

Furious dragon roars accompanied the frequent sonic booms and sounds of things crashing against each other. They echoed madly in Bodhidharma Cave.

Some people were speechless upon noticing that.

“He’s so good.”

“Who is he?”

“He actually uses an Inaction Realm martial artist for sparring.”

Quite a number of Shaolin Temple disciples on Punishment Mount curiously stared at Bodhidharma Cave, but they did not dare to get close to it. The man seemed to be a very short-tempered person, and if they accidentally offended him, they might end up getting sent flying off the cliff.

But they did not expect that the person with the great palm technique not far from them was actually Happy, the top ranked player on Famous People Rank!

*****

More than forty minutes later, Happy dragged his tired body out of Bodhidharma Cave again.

He exhaled, sat down cross-legged, scowled, and mumbled, “Bodhidharma Cave isn’t wide, and when I fight for longer, Master of Breaking Vows’ defensive martial arts become even stronger. Neither of us can do anything to each other. This can’t continue… Besides, I can’t understand just what are the limits of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm like this.”

After training with the monk for such a long period of time, Happy slowly noticed the predicament.

It was a wall that belonged only to Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm.

Every time the damage of the palm technique went up until the tenth palm technique, his attack would not increase any longer, and Happy would find himself suppressed by Master of Breaking Vows. Then, once he suffered a setback, his attack would not climb any further.

However, Happy could notice that it was not the limit of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm. There should be an even higher realm for it…

Besides, he had a gut feeling that once he increased his attack to the eleventh palm, he could execute the eighteen palm styles that he’d never had the chance to understand before!
