Wu Li executed Horse Form Cannon with a punch aimed at the center line, his fist barreling toward Hu Shan's chest. Hu Shan, meanwhile, pinched his left hand, his tendons and bones crackling as they formed a crane's beak, pecking swiftly toward the elbow joint of Wu Li.
This peck was so fast it almost left an afterimage, and had it connected, Wu Li would have immediately suffered broken bones and torn tendons!
Hu Shan did not expect to hit Wu Li with this single move; his aim was to force Wu Li to change his attack or dodge it.
Wu Li's Horse Form Cannon, upright and forthright, was at the peak of its momentum, and any change in move or attempt at evasion would inevitably weaken this force.
Both Wu Li's fist intent and the Xingyi Fist technique he employed placed great emphasis on momentum, making them extremely compatible. Consequently, Hu Shan's first objective was to undermine his opponent's momentum.
