The Dawn of the New World

Chapter 1096 64 Palms Of Infernal Flame



"Right in?"

Somewhat puzzled by his wording, their collective gaze was attracted to Hao Xuan's hands just in time to witness something that they would probably not forget for the rest of their lives.

Hao Xuan was holding the sword upside down. His left hand was tightly wrapped around the tip of the blade and right after he said those words he grasped the blade from the middle and bent it over.

Once, twice and three times in total. The sword bent like it was made from plastic as it was wrapped up and down Hao Xuan's wrist like a glove before being broken in half.

What little steel was still left attached to the hilt was once again bent around his other hand. The sound it made was almost identical to what it would sound like if it was being struck against a solid metal block.

Three times again, over the thumb, the fingers, and the wrist.

Hao Xuan's arms trembled lightly as copious amounts of red hot Qi began to melt the edges together. He began to smash both fists together to hammer out the fringes until it all looked like one solid piece.

His fists were now sealed within those steel coffins until either he would break them on his enemy's heads or they would cut them off of his corpse.

"Hmm, much better," he nodded approvingly while the cultivators and the demihuman guard watched with mouths agape.

"This...what...how...can...did you-"

The guard had so many questions that by the time he decided on one Hao Xuan had already moved past them.

Hao Xuan's spiritual energy kept pulsating around him, creating a field of aura for half a meter in every direction.

The chaos Qi was rampaging throughout his body setting itself alight with every completed rotation through his meridian system.

Hao Xuan took in a deep breath and felt the fire burning within his abdomen distributing raw power to every part of his body.

"Baracus, create a new entry. This is a scripture containing a mixture of Palm and Fist techniques. It is most suitable for someone with an affinity for Yang energy and uses fire as a basic element in almost all attacks and wind as a secondary element."

"It is extremely comprehensive with 60 stances for close, medium, and long engages accompanied by four movement techniques to either close the distance from the target or increase it, making it a total of 64 moves."

"Pros: Extremely powerful and very well rounded. As long as the user has elemental affinities it is remarkably easy to cultivate."

"Con: Causes damage to internal organs and depletes vitality and spiritual energy at a staggering rate. Halves lifespan if there is no way to recover vitality. Pollutes the mind leaving only harmful thoughts."

"Save it as part One of "Hymn of the Twilight" which will be the title of the complete collection of all Saint-Grade and above skills that I can remember. It is called 'Ashuras Grand Compendious: 64 Palms of Infernal Flame!'"

*Beep*

"Entry added. New category created."

"Hmm. And stop me if it looks like I'm about to lose control. It has been a long time since I last used it," Hao Xuan's lips slowly arched up into a smile.

"Correction! This will be the first time you execute the technique in reality."

"Oh yeah, I forgot. Anyways, shut up for now, I have to get to work."

He had reached the front line during the course of the conversation with Baracus and was now standing directly behind the last line of city guards and cultivators that were fighting tooth and nail in extremely close proximity to one another.

There was barely enough room to even take two steps without bumping into someone else which left Hao Xuan frowning.

The "64 Palms of Infernal Flame" was not a scripture known for its precise control. It brought the best results when there were enemies on all sides.

'Now I see why he came forward. This is exactly the kind of battle where it would shine brightest,' he thought inwardly referring to the dark figure that he has just absorbed.

"Guess I'll jump in from here. Might as well start things off with a big bang," Hao Xuan chuckled in excitement.

Where others were at their wit's end trying to stay alive, he was overflowing with boundless enthusiasm standing across from a sea of monstrous creatures.

His knees slightly bent forward as waves upon waves of Chaos Qi were sent towards the bottom of his feet. The ground began to crack as the Qi returned to his fists that were both pulled back towards his chest.

Hao Xuan felt like there were pumps in his legs and chest that were sending copious amounts of energy into his fists. The steel began to glow bright red not much different from a bulb.

His arms bulged and veins popped on his forehead as he tried to keep the energy at bay. Even his own eyes opened wide in shock when he noticed how much energy was being stored in his fists.

'This isn't even at the level of Spirit Realm anymore!'

When he was at his limits Hao Xuan yelled at the top of his lungs.

"EVERYONE IN FRONT OF ME, STEP AWAY RIGHT NOW IF YOU WANT TO LIVE!"
