Chapter 6 6, Mentor and Friend A month later. Ouyang Feng entered the mirror illusion for the second time. As soon as I came in, I heard Lian Xing's voice: "Ouyang Feng!" In the sweet and tender voice of a young girl, Lian Xing came over with fluttering sleeves and said with a smile: "We meet again!" Seeing Lian Xing, Ouyang Feng couldn't help but smile on his stern face: "I haven't seen you for a month, would you mind if you don't come?" "I'm fine." Lian Xing put her hands behind her back and smiled: "You look good, too. When you smile today, you look much better than you did a month ago." Ouyang Feng said seriously:
"To have your compliment is worth my efforts in practicing my smile in front of the mirror whenever I have free time this month." Lian Xing covered her lips and smiled sweetly: "You really practiced!" Ouyang Feng also smiled: "I am a man who listens to advice." After chatting for a while, the strange feeling of not seeing each other for a month quickly disappeared. Lian Xing walked up to him, spread out her right hand, looked at her empty palm, and said with some regret: "Before I came in, I specially prepared a box of snacks. I held the snack box tightly, intending to bring it in to share with you. But after I came in, I found that I couldn't bring anything in except the clothes on my body." Ouyang Feng said: "This is an illusion. Our bodies here are not real, so we won't get hurt, nor will we get hungry, thirsty, or tired. Of course, we can't bring in any real objects." "I see……" Lian Xing looked around and murmured: "The peach blossoms are still as brilliant as they were a month ago. I also saw a large lotus pond with colorful lotuses... The peaches and lotuses are blooming at the same time. I thought this place would be a fairyland..." Ouyang Feng said softly: “Perhaps in the future, it will change from a fantasy world to a real wonderland.” Lian Xing raised her pretty face and looked at him, her eyes full of expectation: "Will that day ever come?" Ouyang Feng nodded: "perhaps." Lian Xing smiled sweetly: “Then I’ll be looking forward to that day.” As she spoke, she suddenly raised her hand, compared the heights of both parties, and said in surprise: "It's only been a month since we last met, have you grown taller? I remember last time, the top of my head could still reach your chin, but today it seems to be three points short?" Ouyang Feng nodded: "I have grown a little taller." "But I'm also at the age of growing taller, so why can't I grow as fast as you?" "Maybe it's because I love eating meat? I can't live without meat for three meals a day, and I have meat soup or barbecue for supper at night. I also practice external skills diligently to strengthen my muscles and bones, so I grow faster?"
"Eating meat three or four times a day? I can't stand that. I can only eat a chicken and a bowl of fish soup every day!" Lian Xing stuck out her tongue and said with a grin: "You've grown taller, so you must be stronger, right? I wonder if your martial arts skills have improved as well." Ouyang Feng smiled confidently: "Of course my martial arts skills have improved. Moreover, I have also learned another move, the 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms'." A month passed, and Ouyang Feng naturally activated the "Reflection Technique" of Tongtian Baojian again. With Kanglongyouhui as an anchor, he really drew out another move of the Dragon Subduing Palm this time. Lian Xiaoxing said with a smile: "So you only know two moves of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms? It seems that I have to be more serious in today's competition." Ouyang Feng said seriously: "I'm just afraid you're not serious." The two smiled at each other, and suddenly attacked together. Ouyang Feng lowered his waist and squatted, his left hand drew an arc, and his right palm pushed forward, breaking through the air with a faint whistling sound. It is the arrogant dragon that will regret. Lian Xing fluttered her long sleeves, and her slender jade hands stretched out from her sleeves. She put her five fingers together and lightly placed her palm against Ouyang Feng's palm, making a muffled bang sound. The air wave vibrated, blowing up the sleeves of the two men. Ouyang Feng was slightly shocked and retreated half a step, while Lian Xing pointed her toes and rushed forward. In terms of internal strength, even though Ouyang Feng has been practicing diligently for the past month since he had undergone the "Zhenlin Ganlu" to change his muscles and cleanse his marrow, and his internal strength has improved greatly, he is still weaker than Lian Xing, who has been practicing the Mingyu magic since childhood. But he is strong and powerful, and his muscles and bones are far stronger than Lian Xing's, so the strength of the two is actually barely equal. However, Lian Xing had a skill called "Transferring Flowers and Jade". In the palm strike just now, she used "Transferring Flowers and Jade" to eliminate part of Ouyang Feng's palm power, forcing him to retreat half a step. This is because Ouyang Feng has already grasped the key to "The arrogant dragon will regret". After a month of diligent practice, he has been able to exert 70% of his strength with one palm and retain 30%, with deep and endless lasting power. If not for this, Lian Xing's "Transferring Flowers and Jade" would probably have completely eliminated his palm power, or even turned his palm power back and made him bear the brunt of his own palm power. Lian Xing relied on the magical skill of "Yihua Jieyu" to win a small victory, and then used the peerless lightness skill of Yihua Palace to move in front of Ouyang Feng in an instant. She swung out multiple palm shadows with her right hand, covering several of Ouyang Feng's vital points. Ouyang Feng used his left palm and right fist, his palm like a big axe and his fist like a flying hammer, to intercept Lian Xing's single palm. With the sound of bang, he took all her palm force. However, Lian Xing's left arm, which had been hanging behind her, suddenly swung, and her long sleeves were like an iron whip, from bottom to top, hitting Ouyang Feng's lower abdomen. Ouyang Feng crossed his palms and pressed down to intercept. His light long sleeves swept across his palms, making a loud sound like a hammer hitting the ground. Ouyang Feng's body shook, and his feet left the ground and flew into the air, as if he was blown away by the sleeve. Lian Xing giggled, tapped the ground with her toes, and flew into the air, chasing after Ouyang Feng. Just as she caught up with Ouyang Feng from below and was about to hit him with his sleeve again, Ouyang Feng suddenly took a deep breath, and his flying and rising body suddenly paused. Then he flipped in the air, turned upside down, and then dived down again. At the same time, he spread out the five fingers of his right hand and slapped Lian Xing with a palm. This simple palm strike made Lian Xing feel uneasy, and she quickly turned her palm over to block it. Bang! Amid the muffled sound of an air explosion, the palms of the two men collided in mid-air. Lian Xing felt a huge force pressing down on her, causing her to fall rapidly toward the ground involuntarily. puff! Lian Xing landed on the ground with her feet, which sank deeply into the soft mud up to her ankles. Ouyang Feng maintained an upside-down posture, supporting Lian Xing's palm with his right palm, hanging upside down in the air. His palm was still exerting force, and one palm force after another continuously hit Lian Xing's fair and slender palm. But Lian Xing remained calm, instead she smiled sweetly and used the "Transferring Flowers and Jade" technique. Although she was unable to turn his palm power back to hurt herself, she was able to direct all of his palm power to her feet, and she herself hardly suffered any impact. Her feet sank deeper and deeper, gradually reaching her calves. However, Ouyang Feng had almost used up all his internal energy, so he could only exert force and use the recoil force to flip over in an attempt to create some distance. Seeing this, Lian Xing giggled again, pulled her legs out of the mud, and her embroidered shoes were spotless. At the same time, her figure was like a wisp of colorful smoke, and she instantly caught up to Ouyang Feng who had not yet landed, and pushed him with a palm. Ouyang Feng barely managed to block the attack with his arms horizontally. With a loud bang, his body flew backwards like a meteor and hit a large peach tree with a bang, causing the tree to tremble and flowers to rain down all over the sky.
Ouyang Feng pressed his back against the tree trunk and slowly slid to the ground. Lian Xing did not pursue him any further. She walked over with her hands behind her back and commented with a smile: "That palm technique that came down from the sky was very powerful. If I hadn't used the Flower-Transferring Jade Technique, I would have been caught off guard by you. What is the name of this move?" Ouyang Feng was not discouraged by his defeat, nor did he feel ashamed. He smiled and said: "That move is called 'Flying Dragon in the Sky'." "A flying dragon in the sky? Very appropriate. But..." Lian Xing looked serious and said solemnly: "This move comes from the Book of Changes, which is the Qian Gua, 'Nine Five, the flying dragon in the sky, it is beneficial to see the great man', so when you strike out, you should have a sense of momentum." Ouyang Feng pondered for a while and said: "The momentum of Jiuwu?" "Correct." Lian Xing nodded her chin, put her hands behind her back, paced back and forth like a teacher, and said leisurely: "The Qian hexagram, number nine and five, is a sign of the greatest prosperity. This palm strike of yours should have the spirit of being invincible, unrivaled, and the only one who can rule the world. Only in this way can this palm strike exert its greatest power."
