Guo Jing suddenly became alarmed, âWho would have the guts to raise their hands in Chongyang Palace? There must be some reason behind tonightâs events.â He wanted to rush over there to take a close look, but the fourteen âBig Dipper Formationâ came in closer and closer. He was in a rush, and with his left palm he unleashed âSeeing the Dragon in the Fieldâ (jian long zai tian) and with his right he used âOvercoming the Dragon with Regretâ. He used the âMutual Left Hand Right Hand Combatâ technique to do this, and used two separate attacks to the left and right. He saw that the forty-nine people in the âBig Dipper Formationâ on the left were blocking this attack; the other forty-nine people in the other âBig Dipper Formationâ on the right also blocked his attack. Before he has finished unleashing the two moves, he changed them around, the left hand had changed from âSeeing the Dragon in the Fieldâ to âOvercoming the Dragon with Regretâ, his right hand changing from âSeeing the Dragon in the Fieldâ to âOvercoming the Dragon with Regretâ.
With the âMutual Left Hand Right Hand Combat Techniqueâ, he was able to do the hard task of using two different stances at the same time, and then to interchange them in the middle of it. This was something that the Taoists have never seen nor heard of. Originally the formation on the left side was able to resist the âOvercoming the Dragon with Regretâ, the right was able to resist âSeeing the Dragon in the Fieldâ, when the two stances were swapped around, the Taoists on both sides were resisting, they didnât know that Guo Jing could swap his stances around so easily. They then saw a flash of movement as Guo Jing escaped from the formation. The forty-nine people on the left and the forty nine people on the right were pushing forward with all their might, and at this moment how could they keep their legs in check? There came a loud noise as the two formations collided with each other, swords wounded some from behind, some knocked their noses against those in front and thirty of them fell onto the ground.
The long bearded Taoist who was leading the formation managed to dodge quickly and evade harm from the other Taoists. He couldnât bear what had happened and quickly whistled again, rapidly setting up the formation again. He saw that Guo Jing was heading rapidly for the pond at the foot of the mountain, the Yu Qing Pond (Pure Jade). He led the fourteen formations and chased after him. The Quanzhen sectâs kung fu was based on calmness and tranquility, using softness to overcome hardness, letting anger control your actions is breaking one of the major rules of the sect; with his anger and fury, it could be said that he was not considering the enemy carefully, he was just reacting to their actions.
Guo Jing quickly reached the Jade Pond, in front of him the water glistened, as he lifted his sword up with his right hand, and chopped a coarse branch off a willow tree that was by the pond. He threw away the sword and picked up the branch with both arms, and flung it faraway into the pond. He increased the strength in his legs and his body soared into the air, his right foot touched the branch once and it sank, he used it to reach the shore on the other side. The crowd of Taoists rushed to the pond but they couldnât stop in time. A splash followed another, as forty or fifty people fell into the pond. The last ten either stepped onto the back of those who had fallen in or managed to stop themselves. A few of the Taoists couldnât swim, and began to struggle in the pond. Those who could swim hurried over to rescue them. At the Pure Jade Pond, the Taoists made a commotion, as they were drenched with water and mud.
