    Default Were the 9 Yum White Bone Claws an elite skill if you had strong enough inner power?

    The 9 Yum White Bone Claws were quite a deadly skill. Chan Yeun Fung, Mui Chiu Fung, Yeung Hong, and Chow Chi Yerk each was able to kill a number of people using it, and none of them had great inner power, which limited them against truly powerful opponents such as the Greats.

    But if one had Greats-level inner power, would the 9 Yum White Bone Claws be as great an external technique to use with it as other martial arts such as Hong Lung 18 Palms, 1 Yeung Finger Technique, Sad Palms, Iron Sand Palms, or Tai Chi Fist?

    it was a top class claw skill, at least on the same level as shaolin dragon claws and white eagle kings eagle claws. but with more subtlety in it's moves. maybe comparable to wudang's tiger destroying procreation claw skill. it was defeated by taiji quan. and HL18Z was superior so yiyang zhi and toad stance should also be better. i guess it should be comparable to HYS's divine descending peach blossom sword palm, because MCF used the two skills together against GJ.

    I think what MCF use is Heart Destroying palm. Another arts in ( 9 yin manual.

    I would rate it belove Shaolin Dragon Claw. Perhaps on par with White Eagle's eagle claw. Although Eagle King was one of the top claw practioners in HSDS, the art itself didnt get much praise as Dragon claw.
    You do know that it is just fiction, dont you?

    Don't think so.

    JY doesn't seem to give much 'plot glory' to claw techniques.

    Palms, swords, finger skills take all the credit.

    Doubt it was anything too great, I'd wager it's definitely below Shaolin Dragon Claws.

    It was originally only some random Ming cult member kungfu and presumably nowhere near elite level. It's safe to say that it was well beneath their sect's treasured Qian Kun, and even Qian Kun seems to be a sub-Great level kungfu.
