Chapter 272 Have you ever seen a palm strike that comes down from the sky?
Despite the aggressive approach of the old man, Zhou Wei remained calm.
She was taking every opportunity to talk to the system.
"The needle you gave me as a reward broke, don't you have to replace it with a new set?"
[Host, no after-sales service.]
"What are you doing, trying to be cute at a life-or-death situation?"
【…】
Look me in the eyes! Speak!
I can fix it for you, and it will work again after the repair.
That's fine, as long as it's not completely useless.
Otherwise, Zhou Wei would really feel sorry for him!
Meteorite is hard to come by, and even if you did, the smelting technology of this era wouldn't be able to create such a fine needle.
[Host, those at the half-step terrestrial immortal realm are not easy to deal with. Do you have a solution?]
"What do you mean? You're acting like you're trying to sell something. Let me make it clear from the start: if I'm not buying, I have nothing."
"And what about the reward for completing the main storyline of the Crown Princess running away with the baby? You're quite good at playing dead at times like this."
I suggest the host use the main quest rewards in the Blessed Land.
The system's words startled Zhou Wei for a moment, but she then decided to accept the suggestion.
It sounds like the situation in this blessed land is much more complicated than that of Elder Xun before us!
The system's rewards for completing tasks were always surprisingly effective, so Zhou Wei decided to observe them for a while.
"But if I don't claim the reward now, how am I supposed to deal with this old guy? Although he's a half-step terrestrial immortal, he's more troublesome than anyone I've ever encountered before."
The Purple Illumination Divine Needle could not seal Elder Xun's acupoints, nor could the Tathagata Palm harm his fundamental nature.
While Ninja Turtles and Pain Shield can protect Zhou Wei from harm, they are just two defensive skills and cannot be used against Elder Xun.
[Host, please study the skill description of Tathagata Palm more carefully. This is all the hints I can give.]
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wei immediately reviewed the skill description of the Tathagata Palm.
Tathagata Palm: Perhaps you've heard of a palm technique that descends from the sky? Has the Tathagata Palm arrived yet?
The skill description was both meme-heavy and abstract, and Zhou Wei really didn't understand what the system was implying.
But after saying that, the system pretended to be dead again, and wouldn't respond no matter how I called it.
Zhou Wei had no choice but to bite the bullet and give it a try, seeing that Elder Xun was about to make a move!
"You wretched woman are quite amusing. You're about to die, yet you're not afraid at all. You're just spacing out and daydreaming. How strange."
Upon hearing this, the eldest princess felt a glimmer of hope.
Zhou Wei once said that she has a system that she can communicate with in her mind.
Her current distraction on the battlefield must be due to a conversation with her magical system.
Jiang Yueli was confident that Zhou Wei would have a way to deal with Elder Xun!
The princess trusted Zhou Wei, but Zhou Wei was somewhat apprehensive, as she was unsure whether the system was reliable or not.
But you can't lose in terms of verbal skills.
"Stop yelling, old man. If you're going to kill me, just kill me. What's with all the nonsense?"
Old Xun's breath hitched; he was furious with Zhou Wei once again.
He racked his brains but couldn't understand where Zhou Wei got the confidence to be so stubborn.
"You dare to spout such nonsense even when you're about to die! Today I'll show you what it means to be a terrestrial immortal."
After saying this, the old man's body suddenly rose into the air and hovered in mid-air, his beard and hair moving in unison, like a god or demon descending to earth!
Seeing this scene, Zhou Wei was suddenly filled with a sense of joy!
He shouted at Elder Xun, "Have you ever heard of a palm technique that descends from the sky?"
Old Xun was taken aback, thinking Zhou Wei was talking nonsense, so he didn't bother to pay attention.
The eldest princess and Tan Lin, who were watching from the sidelines, were also stunned, unable to figure out what Zhou Wei was up to.
After Zhou Wei shouted, she looked up at the sky and found that there was no response. She felt a little guilty.
This dead system, it can't be lying to itself, can it?
When Xun Lao saw Zhou Wei looking at the sky, he was startled and couldn't help but look up as well.
The result was that the sky was completely black, without a single star.
Thinking that Zhou Wei was playing tricks on him again, Old Xun was furious: "You bitch, you're about to die and you still want to play tricks?"
After saying that, before Zhou Wei could react, he put his hands together and the energy gathered in his palms quickly became tangible, like water or mist!
The old man flew through the air and attacked Zhou Wei.
Zhou Wei could only rely on her Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) to move around the courtyard like a snake!
After chasing for a while, Xun Lao gradually realized that he couldn't hit Zhou Wei at all.
"You bitch, stop running."
"Bullshit! I can't beat you, so why would I run away and get beaten up?"
While Zhou Wei nimbly moved her feet, she also relentlessly used her words.
After trying to find a better way to phrase it, she decided to try again.
"Old man, perhaps you've ever seen a palm strike that descends from the sky?"
Old Xun felt his blood begin to boil.
Among the opponents he encountered, Zhou Wei was not the most powerful, and she didn't even have any cultivation.
But it is the most despicable, without exception!
When fighting, instead of directly confronting the opponent, they hurl insults and try to demoralize them.
Old Master Xun originally intended to give the Crown Prince some dignity and leave Zhou Wei with a complete corpse.
Now, he doesn't want to do that anymore.
People like Zhou Wei deserve to be torn to pieces!
When his blood and qi surged, his anger reached its peak, and the foul language in Xun Lao's chest could no longer be suppressed.
He started cursing at Zhou Wei: "What kind of bullshit palm technique is this, falling from the sky? You bitch, stop bluffing!"
"You ants have no idea what a terrestrial immortal is, a palm technique that descends from the sky? Heh, utterly laughable!"
"If there is any palm technique in this world that can harm me, let it descend and let me see it, so that I can broaden my horizons."
As soon as Xun Lao finished speaking, Zhou Wei felt a change in her right hand.
A powerful energy surged through her right hand, so violently that she was almost losing control!
Up in the pavilion, the eldest princess couldn't help but frown.
She always felt that this was exactly what Zhou Wei had been waiting for!
Even Tan Lin, who didn't know Zhou Wei, felt his heart pounding like a drum.
He couldn't help but mutter, "Something's not right, something's not right. I have a feeling someone's going to be in big trouble."
As Zhou Wei used her agility to escape, her right hand reacted more and more intensely.
Until she could no longer control herself, she immediately turned around and stopped dodging, charging towards Elder Xun.
Old Xun was enjoying the thrill of the hunt when he saw Zhou Wei suddenly turn around. He didn't have time to stop in time and was slapped in the face by Zhou Wei!
Just like the previous two slaps, this slap also sent Elder Xun flying.
After knocking down another section of the wall, Old Xun stood up amidst the smoke and fire, a mocking smile playing on his lips.
"I told you long ago, your palm technique can't hurt me, so stop struggling in vain."
Zhou Wei looked at her right hand in confusion. Something wasn't right!
Why didn't the Divine Palm come?
It wasn't until Tan Lin pointed to the sky and exclaimed, "My God, what is that?"
Zhou Wei then looked up and saw a giant hand appear out of thin air.
The palm lines were covered with runes, shimmering with golden light, illuminating the night sky of Ningzhou Prefecture!
Old Xun stared blankly at the giant hand that appeared in the sky, forgetting to run away.
When he finally realized what was happening and tried to fly away from the area, he found that his energy was stagnant and he couldn't move it at all.
Seeing the giant hand crashing down on him, Old Man Xun began to scream in terror.
"No! No! Impossible!"
The giant hand struck, carrying the might of heaven and earth, causing Elder Xun to be unable to stand and kneel upright on the ground.
The hurricane carried dust, making it impossible for everyone to open their eyes.
Zhou Wei reacted quickly, grabbing the still-dazed Tan Lin and climbing up to the attic.
They shielded the eldest princess and Tan Lin behind them.
Then, the giant hand crashed down!
Boom—
A deafening roar erupted between heaven and earth, causing the ground to tremble!
When the dust settled, the princess and Tan Lin discovered that where Elder Xun had just stood, only a huge palm print remained.
The palm print sank three zhang into the ground, and all the buildings within it turned to dust, including Elder Xun!
Of the Princess's courtyard, only the pavilion remains standing in its original place.
At that moment, the sound of orderly hooves came from afar, and a glimmer of light appeared on the horizon.
The sun is rising!
The eldest princess gazed into the distance, a smile spreading across her face: "The Nan Guang army is here!"
