The name "Flower-Twirling Finger" is directly taken from the allusion of Zen School "Buddha picked up flowers and Kasyapa smiled".

According to reports, Shakyamuni was silent in front of the public at the Spirit Mountain Dharma gathering, and just gently picked up a golden Polo flower and showed it to the public.

Everyone was puzzled by what he meant, only the Venerable Mahākāśyapa smiled.

The Buddha immediately announced that he would pass on "the Dharma Eye, the Wonderful Mind of Nirvana" to Kassapa.

This moment of "holding flowers and smiling" is regarded as the first public case of Zen School's "heart-to-heart, not words" case.

In the Shaolin martial arts system, Flower-Twirling Finger is one of the "Shaolin Seventy-Two Arts".

It is an external strong and soft skill, specializing in the practice of "strengthening" the fingers, taking the feminine path.

But it's a pity that Kai's skills are all hard skills.

Flower-Twirling Finger has been bottlenecked for many years and has yet to be broken through.

Flower-Twirling Finger pays attention to using the fingers to control the energy and tap acupoints to intercept the pulse, which is consistent with the acupoint principles of Eight Trigrams Palm.

Kai had long wanted to learn from the Hyuga Clan Gentle Fist's techniques and improve his own Flower-Twirling Finger, but he just didn't have the right opportunity.

Today is a good day, the opportunity has come to me.

Hyuga Hiashi looked hesitant at this time.

"Eight Trigrams Palm is the foundation and core of my Hyuga Clan Gentle Fist."

"But the key is to cooperate with Byakugan and place yourself in the Bagua array."

"By observing the opponent's Chakra flow direction, and then sealing the opponent's acupuncture points and meridians with combo attacks."

"You don't have Byakugan. All I can teach you is the technique of continuously sending palms and the secret of exerting force."

Hyuga Hiashi speaks frankly.

Kai also nodded slightly.

"I know that I only need to learn from the principles of Eight Trigrams Palm to study my own skills. The rest is not important."

Hyuga Hiashi Hearing how straightforward he was, I felt a little proud again.

If it were anyone else, I'd be afraid that they would try their best to find out the secret story of Gentle Fist.

But Kai didn't even say a redundant word and drew the line clearly.

Such a big heart cannot be faked just by pretending.

"Okay." Hyuga Hiashi no longer hesitated, "Since you said so, I will teach you."

He stepped to the center of the open space and made a gesture.

Place your palms forward and back, bend your legs slightly, and straighten your back.

"Eight Trigrams Palm, one palm!"

He shouted softly and pushed out his right palm flatly.

It seems like an understatement, but wherever the wind of the palm passes, the air makes a shrill "hiss" sound, as if it is being squeezed away by an invisible force.

"Two palms!"

"Four palms!"

"Eight Palms!"

His palm speed is getting faster and faster, and his footwork is also turning.

Every time you turn in one direction, the palm shadow will double.

The palm energy coming from all directions intertwined into an airtight net.

"Sixteen palms!"

"Thirty-two palms!"

At this point, the palm shadow has become so blurry that it is almost impossible to see the trajectory.

"Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"

Hyuga Hiashi shouted loudly, and his palms completely turned into afterimages all over the sky.

Each palm carries precise Chakra throughput, as if weaving a large net in the void.

Block all directions and angles.

The fallen leaves on the ground were swept up by the wind of the palm and crushed into powder under the pressure of the palm.

Closing trend.

Hyuga Hiashi slowly exhaled a breath of white air, with a slight sweat on his forehead.

"This is Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms."

"Based on my perception of Chakra acupuncture points, every palm strike will accurately land on the opponent's acupoints."

"Block the opponent's meridians so that the opponent cannot mobilize Chakra."

"The further you get to the back, the faster your palm speed becomes and the more violent the explosion becomes, leaving almost no breathing space for the opponent."

He turned to Kai: "Would you like to try it out first?"

Kai grinned. "Just what I wanted."

Of course he is not so stupid as to think he can learn it just by looking at it.

Hyuga Hiashi demonstrated it to him so that he could see clearly the force trajectory of Eight Trigrams Palm.

But the real essence cannot be seen just by looking. You have to use your body to feel the flow of those Chakra.

"Hyuuga Clan Leader, just greet me directly. Don't hold back."

Hyuga Hiashi frowned. "Are you sure?"

"Sure. I'm pretty strong."

Hyuga Hiashi was silent for a moment and nodded:

"Okay. Then I'll hit it slower so you can feel it clearly."

He uses Chakra very rarely, just to let Kai feel the trajectory of the palm power, without hurting the enemy.

He leaned forward and slapped Kai on the chest.

The power is steady and the penetration is very strong.

Kai felt a strange pressure on his skin.

That's the feeling that Chakra spreads around after hitting the body surface.

You can clearly feel the focus point and diffusion direction of each palm force.

"Come again."

Hyuga Hiashi slapped Kai on the shoulder again.

Followed by the ribs, back, arms, sides of the legs...

He didn't use all his strength in each palm, but the direction of his palm force was different.

Some are straight through from the front, some have a twist, and some are cut in from the side.

Kai felt the sensation of attacks from different angles and different strengths falling on his body one by one.

"The key point of Eight Trigrams Palm is to regard yourself as the center and divide the surrounding space with the Bagua directions."

"When the palm is released, every direction is blocking the opponent's escape route, and every palm force is compressing the opponent's dodge space."

Hyuga Hiashi talked while typing, allowing Kai to intuitively understand the core concept of Taijutsu.

Kai felt the strength coming from his body and gradually became silent.

His eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and something seemed to be condensing in his pupils.

He discovered that Eight Trigrams Palm's continuous palm strikes were essentially the control of "space".

With itself as the axis, the surrounding area is divided into eight directions.

Then use continuous palm force to block all changes in these eight directions.

To put it simply, it is to treat a person as a Bagua formation.

No matter how the enemy dodges, they are within the scope of your palm shadow and cannot escape from the boundary of this Bagua array.

Kai had a flash of enlightenment in his heart.

He doesn't have Byakugan, he can't see the enemy's acupuncture points, and he doesn't need to look.

His body itself has a sensitivity far beyond that of ordinary people.

The attack trajectory can be judged by the air flow, the micro-movement of the opponent's muscles, and the direction of Chakra fluctuations.

This is equivalent to a "pseudo Byakugan".

He does not need to use his eyes to see, but uses his body to feel.

"I'll give it a try."

Kai suddenly walked to the center of the open space, spread his feet and lowered his arms slightly.

Hyuga Hiashi was stunned for a moment. "Are you going to start directly?"

Kai didn't say much and closed his eyes.

He tried to combine the concept of Eight Trigrams Palm with his own way of perception.

With yourself as the center, imagine the surrounding space as a Bagua array.

The eight directions were like eight invisible coordinates, spread out evenly in all directions with his body as the core.

The flow of air, the vibration of the ground, the sound of wind blowing through leaves...

All external information turned into tracks in his perception, outlining the outline of this Bagua array.

He could clearly feel that he was the only core in the formation.

"One palm!"

Kai opened his eyes suddenly and slapped his right palm forward.

The palm force roars, crisply and neatly.

"Two palms!"

"Four palms!"

"Eight Palms!"

He hit faster and faster, his footwork automatically adjusted, and his palms drew fierce trajectories in all directions.

Zhou Shen's air was squeezed by the force of his palm, making a "pop-pop" sound.

Hyuga Hiashi's pupils suddenly shrank.

This rhythm, this pattern of palm shots--it is exactly the continuous routine of Eight Trigrams Palm!

"Sixteen Palms!"

Kai's voice was deep, and his palms brought out blurry afterimages.

"Thirty-two palms!"

Palm shadows emerged from all directions at the same time, as if he had grown several arms, covering the surrounding space.

Hyuga Hiashi stood there, eyes wide open.

He has taught countless younger members of his clan how to practice Eight Trigrams Palm.

From one palm to thirty-two palms, it would take at least three months just to memorize the routine, let alone develop its power.

And Kai...

When I first started using it, I hit thirty-two palms directly.

"Might Guy's skills..."

Hyuga Hiashi My throat is a little dry.

Of course he knows that Kai is known as the first Konoha Taijutsu.

But I know it, I saw with my own eyes that the other party imitated his Hyuga Clan palm skills in a few minutes.

The impact is far beyond words.

But Kai didn't stop yet.

He suddenly shouted low and twisted his back.

Both palms drew two consecutive arcs in the air, and the speed suddenly increased to a new level.

The palm shadows are no longer scattered and directional, but connected into a circle of airtight barriers.

Killing everything around it in all directions.

"Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"

Palm shadows all over the sky erupted simultaneously in an instant, with fierce palm winds coming from all directions.

The air was torn apart with a sharp explosion, and the dust on the ground was picked up and crushed by the palm pressure, forming a clear circle of marks.

Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms is finished.

Hyuga Hiashi The mouth was slightly open and did not close for a while.

"You actually... learned it in one go?!"

Hyuga Hiashi was just about to step forward to confirm Kai's status when he suddenly stopped.

Because he found that Kai had no intention of stopping.

The air around him suddenly sank, as if there was an invisible force field expanding outwards with him as the center.

The gravel on the ground was pushed outward by this force, forming a circle several feet in diameter.

Hyuga Hiashi's pupils shrank sharply.

This feeling...Eight Trigrams Domain?!

A foreigner who has no Byakugan, just listened to his explanation and felt a few palms, and started a Eight Trigrams Domain on his own?

Also, what is he going to do?

Kai quickly gave the answer.

I heard Kai let out a low shout and struck out again!

"Bagua·One hundred and twenty-eight palms!"
