The Bloody Monk's battle with Nalan Jingwei, the powerful force of the Enlightennt Bodhi, and the formidable defense of the Step-by-Step Golden Lotus resulted in a complete showdown here. The result was also very clear; the power of the Enlightennt Bodhi could not break the defense of the Step-by-Step Golden Lotus. However, the Step-by-Step Golden Lotus could only barely keep up with the Enlightennt Bodhi. The two secret techniques left by Patriarch Bodhidharma had their own rits and were evenly matched.
However, this gave everyone a chance to witness the power of the Step-by-Step Golden Lotus. In the battle just now, the crowd was convinced that what Nalan Jingwei had learned was indeed the secret technique left by Patriarch Bodhidharma. And this secret technique must be one of the six secret techniques driven by Buddha's Left Hand!
When the forces of the two receded, Helian Tiehua imdiately burst into laughter and said loudly: "What a move Enlightennt Bodhi! What a move Step by Step Golden Lotus! The secret technique left by Patriarch Bodhidharma is indeed extraordinary."
"Step-by-Step Golden Lotus, invincible in defense. To see it today, it truly lives up to its reputation!" The Bloody Monk looked at Nalan Jingwei, nodded slowly, and said: "Nalan Jingwei, our battle is a draw. However, the enmity between you and is hereby resolved."
After saying this, the Bloody Monk turned around and went back to his seat. Nalan Jingwei felt joyous in his heart. To be honest, he really didn't want to provoke the Bloody Monk. After all, the Bloody Monk was too strong; making such a strong enemy was truly unwise. Now being able to resolve the previous enmity was a joyful event for him.
In fact, this was also one of the reasons Nalan Jingwei ca to Shenchuan City this ti. After the Hung City incident last ti, his enmity with the people was not shallow. If it weren't for the Corpse Ghost Dragon affair, soone would have probably already co after him. Although the Corpse Ghost Dragon affair temporarily diverted everyone's attention from him, once that matter was resolved, it was hard to ensure that people wouldn't co for revenge. Therefore, he wanted to use this opportunity to unite with everyone to deal with the Corpse Ghost Dragon and incidentally repair relations with these peak masters to prevent future conflicts targeting him.
With the power of the Step-by-Step Golden Lotus confird, everyone felt more at ease. What remained was to wait for the Purple Robe Lama to arrive, after which they would prepare to challenge the Corpse Ghost Dragon.
In the afternoon, the Purple Robe Lama also arrived at the manor, finally eting everyone. With this, the six secret techniques left by Patriarch Bodhidharma were finally assembled together, and everyone was ready to challenge the Corpse Ghost Dragon.
The arrival of the Purple Robe Lama was t with great joy by everyone, except Ye Qing. Upon seeing the Purple Robe Lama, Ye Qing felt sowhat nervous. After all, the Purple Robe Lama had repeatedly instructed him to protect the information about those children to prevent any accidents. In the past few days, those children had been killed one after another. Although it was unrelated to him, the orphanage was the only place with that information. Ultimately, it was because he failed to protect that information, leading to it being exploited, and he felt guilty towards the Purple Robe Lama.
Fortunately, the Purple Robe Lama did not ask about the children's matters upon arriving, focusing instead on discussing plans to deal with the Corpse Ghost Dragon. Of course, upon hearing about the Buddha's Bone Relic, the Purple Robe Lama was very excited and imdiately asked Ye Qing to bring it out for detailed observation.
Nalan Jingwei stood amongst the crowd. He hadn't seen the Buddha's Bone Relic when he ca, but now, witnessing it, he was deeply shocked.
The Purple Robe Lama's reaction could not be described as rely shocked; he initially observed it while standing, but later, he knelt on the ground with hands clasped, his face full of devotion. The golden light of the Buddha's Bone Relic enveloped him, accompanied by Buddhist chants, making the entire hall sink into a state of tranquility and harmony. Even the irreverent Bloody Monk faintly showed a rare expression of devotion and peace.
Among the crowd, Ye Qing was the only one who remained relatively clear-headed. Strangely, under the golden light, Ye Qing felt both comfortable and repelled; it seed as if the golden light greatly resisted him, causing indescribable anguish within his body.
Ye Qing, puzzled, couldn't understand why everyone else seed so tranquil, while he felt bizarre. Upon reflection, he suddenly recalled the Devouring Demon Flower. Could the feeling of repulsion be due to consuming so many Devouring Demon Flowers?
After all, the Devouring Demon Flower ca from the Demon Hideout Cave and had grown out of the Great Demon King's coffin. Such a thing was likely imbued with demonic nature, and this demonic nature was inherently opposed to the Buddha, so experiencing such repulsion and resistance was normal.
The golden light flickered incessantly, and after about an hour, it gradually stopped. The Buddhist chants also diminished and ceased as the golden light faded away. However, it took quite so ti for the people in the hall to return to their senses, still imrsed in the tranquility and harmony of the Buddha Seal chants.
Ye Qing was the sole exception; from start to finish, he wasn't drawn into the Buddhist chants, experiencing increasing repulsion instead. The power of the Devouring Demon Flower kept him from rging with the chants. However, because the demonic power within him wasn't pure, no conflict of forces arose, allowing him to remain standing there.
Seeing everyone showing peaceful and silent expressions, Ye Qing also remained silent. After a long ti, the Purple Robe Lama, kneeling before the Buddha's Bone Relic, finally clasped his hands and proclaid a Buddha's na loudly: "Namo Amitabha Buddha!"
With the Purple Robe Lama's proclamation, everyone at the scene slowly awakened. They looked at each other as if waking from a dream, finding their hearts much more peaceful and harmonious, despite any lingering worries. At this mont, past grudges and conflicts seed less significant, as the peaceful aura of the Buddhist sect dispersed much of the hostility in their hearts.
"Wonderful Dharma of Shakyamuni, the Buddha's Bone Relic," the Purple Robe Lama looked reverently at the Buddha's Bone Relic and said softly, "Truly extraordinary!"
Helian Tiehua laughed and said, "Since the Purple-robed Elder has spoken this way, it seems using the Buddha's Relic Sharira to slay the Corpse Ghost Dragon shouldn't be a difficult task!"
"Indeed!" The Purple Robe Lama nodded slowly, looking at Helian Tiehua, and said, "Great General, you can declare war against the Corpse Ghost Dragon today. With this Honored Buddha's Relic Sharira, it is enough to break the human-shaped Gu of the Corpse Ghost Dragon!"
"The Corpse Ghost Dragon is currently transforming the human-shaped Gu into the Indestructible Demon Body..." Ye Qing paused for a mont and said, "Will this have any impact?"
The Purple Robe Lama replied, "As long as his Indestructible Demon Body is not fully accomplished, the Honored Buddha's Relic Sharira can destroy everything!"
The Purple Robe Lama has been extensively studying Buddhism in Tianzhu and is very knowledgeable about many matters within the Buddhist Sect. Naturally, he is also well aware of the power of the Honored Buddha's Relic Sharira. Saying such words, everyone felt more at ease. It seems that this ti, slaying the Corpse Ghost Dragon is indeed no longer a difficult task!
Helian Tiehua said, "The Purple-robed Elder has just arrived in Shenchuan City and must be weary from the journey. Why not rest for the night and declare war on the Corpse Ghost Dragon tomorrow?"
"No need!" The Purple Robe Lama slowly shook his head and said, "I have little ti left; I cannot delay!"
Upon hearing these words, everyone in the hall was astonished; they all looked at the Purple Robe Lama in amazent, not understanding why he suddenly said such a thing. However, as a top figure of the Buddhist Sect, the Purple Robe Lama had so unique traits. When he said such words, it was certainly not without a target.
"Does the Venerable have any concerns?" Shen Tianjun asked curiously.
The Purple Robe Lama waved his hand and said, "Let's not discuss this matter. Great General, quickly arrange the duel with the Corpse Ghost Dragon!"
Seeing the disposition of the Purple Robe Lama, everyone had no choice but to say no more. Helian Tiehua rose to his feet and said loudly, "In that case, tonight, we shall engage the Corpse Ghost Dragon in a life-and-death battle. Everyone, united in effort, let's vanquish this demon and bring peace to the world!"
"United in effort, vanquish this demon!" everyone shouted in unison. In dealing with the Corpse Ghost Dragon, their opinions were surprisingly unanimous.
Helian Tiehua went to arrange the duel with the Corpse Ghost Dragon, and everyone parted ways, returning to their residences to gather their strength and prepare for dealing with the Corpse Ghost Dragon.
Seeing the Purple Robe Lama co over, Ye Qing wanted to go to him and discuss the matter of those children. Regardless of whether the Purple Robe Lama knows about this matter or how he intends to handle it, since it was his own mistake, he should acknowledge it.
However, as everyone dispersed and Ye Qing walked to the door of the Purple Robe Lama's room, preparing to knock, he hesitated in his heart. It wasn't that he feared the Purple Robe Lama would beco angry; rather, tonight was the duel with the Corpse Ghost Dragon, a truly crucial mont. If the Purple Robe Lama wasn't aware of the matter, bringing it up now might distract him. If the Purple Robe Lama beca distracted due to this matter, leading to any accidents during tonight's battle with the Corpse Ghost Dragon, Ye Qing would indeed beco a real sinner through the ages.
The opportunity to slay the Corpse Ghost Dragon was jointly created by everyone and Luan Ping. The Corpse Ghost Dragon was deceived by Luan Ping, thinking that the secret technique everyone acquired wasn't sufficient to kill him. That's why he dared to face everyone in battle. If they lost this opportunity, the next ti the Corpse Ghost Dragon would certainly beco wise, and would absolutely not engage in direct confrontation with them, which would be troubleso. If they couldn't slay the Corpse Ghost Dragon, the world wouldn't see peace!
After much consideration, Ye Qing ultimately chose to leave without discussing the matter with the Purple Robe Lama. After all, dealing with the Corpse Ghost Dragon was the greatest priority. As for other matters, they could wait until the Corpse Ghost Dragon was slain!
Sighing with regret, Ye Qing returned to his residence. Before entering the house, he heard a faint sound from inside. Ye Qing was surprised, wondering who could be inside his room in this manor?
Ye Qing pushed the door open, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw Huangfu Ziyu sitting there.
