Chapter 2240 — The Eleventh Form of the Mad Fire Fist
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"The third form of the Mad Fire Fist..." While the Grand Protector was still pondering, Wei Zhao had already unleashed the third form. Even though Wei Zhao had slowed the speed, unleashing a martial technique demanded continuity—only by layering one form upon another, completing them in one breath, could the final form's power be brought to its utmost!
Wei Zhao had previously unleashed the fifth form of the Mad Fire Fist together with a small true qi bomb, and it had done nothing to the Grand Protector. So this time, Wei Zhao meant to give him something even more vicious! Of course, if even the more vicious version failed, then Wei Zhao could only study his escape routes...
"The fourth form of the Mad Fire Fist..." Wei Zhao had unleashed the fourth form.
The Grand Protector frowned. "That's four moves already. There's only the last one left—if you don't use it, I'll count it as used!"
He had to remind Wei Zhao, lest after finishing the fifth form Wei Zhao declare, 'This was only a warm-up, I never struck you, so it doesn't count as a move'—and the Grand Protector would surely go mad.
"Oh... I know. The fifth form of the Mad Fire Fist..." As Wei Zhao spoke, he unleashed the fifth form of the Mad Fire Fist—and in that instant, Wei Zhao's figure moved...
The Grand Protector's gaze sharpened, a fierce light flashing across it, and he sneered inwardly: just as I thought—the first four forms were all feints, and only the last was the true final strike, held in reserve until now! But what of a final strike? Even if the first four were feints and Wei Zhao had spent half a day gathering his strength before unleashing this final move, in the Grand Protector's eyes Wei Zhao was nothing but an arrow at the end of its flight. From Tagan Long's and Lazi's accounts, Wei Zhao had surely been gravely wounded by the Fifth Protector's kick!
Yet even having guessed Wei Zhao's purpose, the Grand Protector still stood there carelessly. He was confident that with his true qi shielding his body, Wei Zhao could not harm him in the slightest; once he took this move, Wei Zhao would obediently hand over the treasure, sparing the Grand Protector the trouble of acting himself.
"Bang, bang—"
As Wei Zhao's figure darted through the air, two great booms rang out—the true qi bomb and the fifth form of the Mad Fire Fist combined with the Fire-Flow Divine Bomb to unleash an even mightier eleventh form!
"Pff—" A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from the Grand Protector's mouth! He stared at Wei Zhao in disbelief, unable to accept that he had been wounded by a mere Earth-rank mid-stage expert! To break through his true qi shield—even an ordinary expert of the same rank would find that difficult!
Yet Wei Zhao had succeeded in breaking through his true qi defense and had actually wounded him!
After this strike, Wei Zhao did not stop; he unleashed the fifth form of the Forest of Trees Phantom Thousand Changes. His two fists became ten, and every one of them slammed squarely into the opening in the Grand Protector's chest, torn open by Wei Zhao's true qi bomb!
These ten punches, though not as formidable as the fifth form of the Mad Fire Fist combined with the Fire-Flow Divine Bomb, were still considerable—for the Mad Fire Fist could display its immense power only when completed in one breath; used alone, it might not produce as great an effect as the Forest of Trees Phantom Thousand Changes!
As for the Fire-Flow Divine Bomb, only one remained, and Wei Zhao did not want to waste it. The first had already been wasted, doing no harm to the Grand Protector; the second had some effect, but had not achieved the result Wei Zhao expected.
