Shadow Dance Leaf is a taijutsu recorded in the Eight Gates Sealing Jutsu scroll. It allows the user to quickly close in on an opponent and kick them into the air. Its power is amplified when used in conjunction with Front Lotus and Reverse Lotus.
However, it requires wrapping bandages around the hands.
Later, it was learned by Sasuke and Naruto and improved into Lion Combo and Naruto Shadow Clone Combo.
Li Chuan didn't wrap bandages, so he naturally couldn't use Front Lotus or Reverse Lotus. He also felt that kicking the opponent multiple times in the air wasn't as convenient as grabbing their ankle while kicking them away and slamming them onto the ground.
Thus, he created this improved taijutsu technique suitable for himself, Shadow Dance Leaf: Sixty-Four Consecutive Slams.
Of course, this taijutsu technique can also be upgraded to Shadow Dance Leaf: One Hundred Twenty-Eight Consecutive Slams, Two Hundred Fifty-Four Consecutive Slams, and even Sixty-Four Thousand Consecutive Slams. The number of slams only depends on the opponent's endurance and Li Chuan's stamina.
Judging by Loki's current state, Sixty-Four Consecutive Slams is probably enough. Slamming him too much might actually kill him.
"Now, immediately resolve the Destroyer's control!"
Li Chuan grabbed Loki's ankle with one hand and pulled out the Eternal Spear with the other, offering the spear shaft to Loki.
Loki tremblingly raised his hand and grabbed the Eternal Spear. Immediately, a powerful beam of energy shot from the spearhead towards Li Chuan, but Li Chuan, who was already on alert, tilted his head and dodged it.
"It seems you haven't been slammed enough. Then it's Sixty-Five Slams, Sixty-Six Slams... One Hundred Twenty-Eight Slams!"
After carrying Loki around and slamming him another sixty-four times, making it a total of one hundred twenty-eight, Li Chuan once again offered the handle of the Eternal Spear to Loki.
"If you don't remove the Destroyer's control now, the next will be Two Hundred Fifty-Four Slams. I'm very happy to play with you until the end."
This time, Loki's speed in raising his hand was significantly slower than before. His godly pride had been completely slammed away, and the only thing left in his heart was the instinct for survival.
When Loki's hand finally gripped the handle of the Eternal Spear again, Li Chuan's mind immediately received a notification that the mission was complete. Clearly, Loki had truly canceled the command to the Destroyer this time.
"Phew, I finally got the three months of rewards!"
Pulling out the Eternal Spear and putting it into the small cloth bag, and also picking up the ancient winter coffin, Li Chuan dragged the nearly semi-conscious Loki towards the teleportation hall.
On the other side, Laufey was at a disadvantage fighting six people at once. Seeing the ancient winter coffin fall into Li Chuan's hands, he took advantage of the gap when he was kicked out of the teleportation hall by several people, slammed his hands on the ground, and released all the ice power within his body.
Instantly, the exit of the teleportation hall was sealed by a thick ice wall, temporarily isolating Tony and the other six.
The panting Laufey walked towards Li Chuan while speaking in a tempting tone:
"Give me the ancient winter coffin, and I will fulfill any wish you have. I know you are from Midgard. I can help you conquer the entire Midgard and give it to you to rule. From now on, you will be the King of Midgard."
"Conquer the entire Midgard? You are really dreaming."
Hearing the conditions offered by Laufey, Li Chuan couldn't help but roll his eyes, then winked at the twenty Shadow Clones.
"Kill him!"
The twenty Shadow Clones immediately formed hand seals simultaneously:
"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"
Twenty spears of thunder shot towards the exhausted Laufey, instantly killing him on the spot.
Leaving aside the fact that Odin might already be awake and observing in secret, even if Odin was truly in the Odin-sleep as in the movie and had no ability to fight back, he would not hand over the ancient winter coffin to Laufey.
Because once Laufey obtained the ancient winter coffin and regained his strength, Li Chuan would no longer be his opponent, and his life and death would be completely in the other party's hands.
Only fools blinded by greed would agree to such a thing as entrusting their fate to others.
Moreover, the conditions Laufey promised were simply impossible to achieve. Occupy Earth? Where did you put Gu Yi? She is still alive and well.
"Boom!"
At this time, the six people inside the teleportation hall worked together and finally broke through the ice wall created by Laufey and walked out.
"Release."
Releasing the Shadow Clones and returning to his normal size, Li Chuan dragged Loki in front of Thor and handed over the Eternal Spear, the ancient winter coffin, and Loki to him without hesitation.
The Eternal Spear and the ancient winter coffin can be said to be top-grade divine artifacts and treasures, but they were not of much use to Li Chuan, because he was neither an Asgardian nor a Frost Giant and could not use these two items.
And even if he could use them, with Odin present, he wouldn't dare to take them. It was better to generously hand them over, which could also highlight his persona more.
"Chuan, thank you for your help. From now on, you are my brother in Midgard!"
Thor gave Li Chuan a big hug, then squatted down and looked at Loki, who had gradually recovered some consciousness, and roared angrily:
"Loki, I am your brother, and you actually deceived me and colluded with the Frost Giants!"
"You are not my brother, and I was just using them. If you hadn't interfered, I would have already destroyed the entire Jotunheim with the power of the Rainbow Bridge and made a great contribution to Asgard!"
Loki looked at Thor and replied defiantly.
Just then, a majestic voice suddenly sounded behind everyone:
"No, Loki, you are wrong. What the Nine Realms need is peace, not war. If I wanted to destroy Jotunheim, I would have destroyed it when I took the ancient winter coffin from Laufey back then.
I brought you back hoping that in the future you could become the King of Jotunheim, end the hatred between the Frost Giants and Asgard, and forever achieve peace in the Nine Realms!"
The person who arrived was none other than the King of Asgard, Odin, who had already awakened, or perhaps came over after seeing that things had ended.
Seeing Odin appear behind him, Li Chuan's pupils immediately contracted, because he had not detected when Odin appeared behind him at all.
What did this mean?
It meant that if Odin wanted to kill him, he might be dead before he could even resist.
This made the slight arrogance he had just felt after easily killing Laufey, the King of the Frost Giants, instantly disappear.
Sending away the Destroyer armor, defeating Loki, and killing Laufey, the things he had just accomplished, inevitably made him feel that the people on Asgard were nothing special.
However, Odin's appearance made him realize that perhaps other gods were indeed not very powerful, but Odin was definitely unimaginably powerful. At least with his current strength, he was far from being an opponent.
"Father King!"
Thor and Loki both called out at the same time when they saw the person who arrived, while Heimdall and Sif, and the Warrior Three, knelt on one knee and shouted:
"Greetings, All-Father Odin!"
Seeing this, Tony opened his helmet and asked Li Chuan in a low voice:
"Do we need to kneel like them?"
Before Li Chuan could answer, a smile appeared on Odin's face over there.
"Thank you for your help to Asgard. You are from Midgard, so you don't have to follow the customs here to salute."
"Thank you, Lord Odin."
Although Li Chuan and Tony did not kneel on one knee, they still bowed to show respect.
