This martial saint's health bar is too thick

Chapter 634 Who Can Stop the Great Blue Army's Might? Five Cities Connected, the Buddha Appears
"Who?!"

Chaganbayar was startled.

Although he possesses the experience and insight of a top-tier expert, his current cultivation level is too low, and he has even severed his connection with the Dao principles of the [Forgetful River].

Therefore, he is currently just a sorcerer in the Divine Transformation stage. It is normal that he did not notice that someone had tampered with his body without his knowledge.

"Please do not make a fuss, otherwise this humble monk will have no choice but to take action against you."

The voice from above continued to resound.

Chaganbayar's eyes shifted rapidly, but he quickly calmed down and said in his mind as well:
"who are you?"

"This humble monk has attained enlightenment."

"I don't know you. What do you want?"

“This humble monk already knows your identity from Hua Yanjun’s memories, so why pretend to be ignorant?”

"what are you saying?"

"Could it be that you are Qilian Guanshi or Styx Ancestor, who were 'reincarnated' through special means?"

boom--

These words were like a bomb, exploding in Chaganbayar's mind!
But with over a century of tumultuous life experience, he possessed extraordinary self-control, forcibly maintaining his composure and not revealing the slightest hint of shock.

"I can not understand what you say."

"Really? But the Great Blue Dynasty already suspects you like this, is it just a baseless rumor?"

"How could I possibly be someone's reincarnation! You're talking nonsense!"

Chaganbayar roared in his heart.

At the same time, he was both shocked and angry.

He had considered that he was already a suspect, but he never expected that the Great Blue Dynasty had already guessed his true identity!
"Even Hua Yanjun knows about this. What purpose did the Great Blue Dynasty have in arranging for me to come to the Great Luo Sect, besides using me to lure out the Buddhists? Did they also want to use the Great Luo Sect to get rid of me?"

Chaganbayar was terrified, but he said aloud:

"I don't know what you're talking about. What exactly is your purpose?"

Given his shrewdness, it's impossible for him to tell the truth just because someone tricked him.

He would never admit his identity unless presented with irrefutable evidence.

“Amitabha, it is alright if the benefactor does not wish to admit it.”

Wu Xuan said, "This humble monk has something to say to you; just listen."

“If you hadn’t been suspected by the Great Blue Dynasty, you would have had the opportunity to rise to prominence by leveraging its power. But now the higher-ups of the Great Blue Dynasty have begun to doubt you. If you continue to stand on the Great Blue Dynasty’s ship, you will be abandoned sooner or later. You might as well make plans now.”

“Regardless of your past life, the karma has been settled, and our Buddhist community will not pursue it further. Now, you are a chosen one of heaven, blessed with good fortune. If you wish to abandon darkness and embrace the light, our Buddhist community is willing to accept you.”

Chaganbayar: "Bah! I am a viscount of the Great Blue Dynasty. You monk, trying to turn me against my cause, are delusional!"

His mind raced. Even if what Wu Xuan said was true, the Buddhists' attempt to win him over was probably just a spur-of-the-moment thing, a casual move.

The other party values ​​his Dao principles of the [Forgetful River], not him as a person.

However, the Dao principles of the [Forgetful River] have now fallen into Li Fei's hands. This matter is top secret, and Hua Yanjun, a mere member of the Righteous Law Pavilion, could not possibly know about it, so Wu Xuan would not know either.

Chagan Bayar was well aware that he could not currently offer the value that Buddhism desired, so it was even less likely that he would be honest with Wuxuan.

Seeing his determination, Wu Xuan stopped trying to persuade him and instead resorted to threats:
"In that case, your life or death is in my hands. I hope you will cooperate with me from now on."

Chaganbayar: "What do you want to do?"

Wu Xuan: "Since you are unwilling to be honest, there is no need to ask any more questions."

Outside the gate of the Daluo Sect.

Li Fei, along with Zhou Xuanwo and Zhao Jin, descended from the sky and returned to Daluo Town.

The three of them found Hua Yanjun immediately, who was recuperating.

Sensing someone approaching, Hua Yanjun opened his eyes and, upon seeing Li Fei and the others, looked ashamed.
"Duke, Chief Zhou, it's me."

Li Fei waved his hand: "Wu Xuan is a whole realm higher than you, and he also has a soul-capturing supernatural power. It's no wonder you fell for it."

Hua Yanjun remained silent.

Like Zhao Jin, he had come to realize that he was just a pawn in this game.

Li Fei looked at Hua Yanjun and Zhao Jin and said, "You two have worked hard. Now come back to Lanling City with me to report back. I will recommend you for good deeds."

These words immediately made the two of them feel much better.

Let them be chess pieces. Life is like a game of chess, and how many people are truly qualified to be the ones to wield the pieces?
Li Fei turned to Zhou Xuanwo and said, "I'll leave this to Chief Zhou."

After discussing with the Great Luo Sect, the Great Blue Dynasty needs to leave someone of high enough status here to liaise with the Great Luo Sect.

So, Zhou Xuan, I'm in charge of guarding this place.

Zhou Xuan nodded: "Don't worry, Duke."

The Heavenly King of the River has already come once, so he probably won't come again. It's relatively safe for him to stay here.

"Let's go."

Li Fei summoned his black boat, allowing Hua Yanjun and Zhao Jin to board, before steering the black boat into the air.

After flying some distance, he heard a whisper in his mind:
"The two who just fought, one was the third strongest in the world, and the other was the fourth strongest?"

Li Fei transmitted his thoughts into the void: "Not bad."

This time, just in case, Xu Chihan secretly followed him to the Great Luo Sect.

If Taiyu is indeed putting on an act with Zhenhe Tianwang and intends to attack him, with Xuchi Han providing backup from the outside, he at least has a chance to escape.

However, the Void Clam is too large. Even if it can hide in the void, Zhenhe Tianwang is also skilled at traversing the void, making it easy for the opponent to discover it.

Therefore, Li Fei made Xu Chihan hide very far away.

Are you confident you can win over that fourth-ranked player in the world?

Xu Chihan asked.

Although it has only recently come into contact with the human world, it has already figured out the current situation.

Li Fei: "The main purpose of this trip is not to win him over, but to prevent him from being won over by the other side."

Xu Chihan pondered for a moment and understood the meaning behind it:

"You humans have such dirty hearts."

Li Fei: "."

Xu Chihan: "If that third-ranked Buddhist monk suddenly comes after you, will I have no choice but to expose myself prematurely?"

Li Fei: "It's not that bad."

Last time in the Northern Barbarian Lands, he almost died at the hands of the River-Suppressing Heavenly King, but Ning Qingman arrived in time to save him.

But now he already possesses top-tier combat power and can use the nation's fortune to his advantage at any time. Even if he can't defeat the Heavenly King of Zhenhe, escaping is still not a problem.

The Buddhists would only have a chance of killing him if the River-Suppressing Heavenly King and the Buddha-Eye Heavenly King joined forces.

Li Fei believed that the Buddhists should be aware of this.

This is why, even though they knew Li Fei was the key to the future war, the Buddhist sect hesitated to take action.

The Buddhists have only sent out the River-Suppressing Heavenly King, but Wenren Zheng has already led his army into the Western Kingdom.

If both Heavenly Kings are sent out, the Western Kingdom will have a hard time holding on.

"I wonder how the battle is going on the Grand Marshal's side?"

Li Fei was still somewhat worried about Wenren Zheng's injuries.

West Pole Country.

After the establishment of the kingdom, in addition to the central Buddhist capital, Pudu Temple rebuilt four large cities in the four directions of east, west, south and north.

The four major cities, plus the Buddhist capital, these five cities form the core of the entire Western Extremity Kingdom and are the areas that the Western Extremity Kingdom must protect.

King Kong City is a major city in the eastern part of the Western Extremity Kingdom. This city was renamed after the Western Extremity Kingdom was officially established.

Not only has the name changed, but the city has also expanded in size, from accommodating more than 200,000 people to accommodating more than 500,000 people.

In addition, the city of Vajra also built a protective array.

In addition to a great Arhat and a guardian Vajra, there are three thousand monk soldiers in the city who can form a military formation.

These are the top combat forces of Vajra City.

With its protective formation, Vajra City can withstand the attack of top-tier experts for a short period of time!

When Wenren Zheng led his army to the outside of Jingang City, the city's protective formation had already been activated.

The entire city seemed to be capped beneath a giant, inverted, solidified golden bell. The bell's surface was not smooth, but rather composed of countless intricate and ever-flowing Sanskrit mantras, each character shimmering with pure and radiant Buddhist light.

Above the bell, three enormous phantom images of Arhats could be vaguely seen sitting cross-legged, chanting mantras and emitting lingering Buddhist sounds, infusing the great formation with an endless stream of Buddhist power.

The air was filled with the scent of sandalwood and a solemn atmosphere, and under the golden light, the entire city appeared sacred and inviolable.

Looking ahead at the Vajra City, Wenren was issuing his second order since the start of the campaign:
"Attack the city—"

Although the Western Kingdom occupies only one province, its most steadfast believers and all its core resources are concentrated in the Buddhist capital and the four major cities.

As for the other towns, the Western Kingdom didn't even send any garrison troops, only missionary monks, so there was no point in taking them.

To inflict substantial damage on the Western Extremity Kingdom, the only options are to attack the Buddhist capital or the four major cities. Now that it's confirmed that the River-Suppressing Heavenly King is outside, the Great Blue Dynasty must inflict significant damage on the Western Extremity Kingdom to force him to return and defend.

Otherwise, if the third-best player in the world is always out there, no one knows what kind of damage he might cause.

At Wenren Zheng's command, the powerful warriors accompanying the army took the lead in attacking.

Various supernatural powers and spells were unleashed upon the city's protective array—

Several thick, purplish-blue bolts of lightning tore through the sky, carrying a destructive aura as they slammed into the golden bell. The lightning exploded, electric snakes danced wildly, and a deafening roar was heard.

Someone activated a water-based supernatural power, conjuring a giant ice python tens of meters long. Its body exuded a chilling aura, and wherever it passed, even the air condensed into ice crystals. It fiercely bit at the Buddha's light, attempting to freeze and erode the flowing Sanskrit characters.

Someone activated a fire-based divine power, and countless crimson fire crows, composed of pure flames, flew through the sky, emitting sharp cries as they crashed into the array like raindrops, exploding into bursts of flame.

The incomparably sharp golden sword energy condensed into a gigantic flying shuttle, spinning at high speed and cutting through the Buddhist light, emitting a piercing friction sound; the heavy, earthen-yellow giant hand, like a mountain collapsing, slammed down with immense force.
However, these supernatural powers and spells, powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks, only stirred up violent ripples when they struck the giant golden bell.

The Sanskrit mantras flowed faster, either dissipating, dispersing, or reflecting the violent energy. The swastika symbol on the bell wall shone even brighter, crushing the incoming alien energy like a millstone.

Then, eight imperial guard units, each with a strength of a thousand men, also moved.

Their combined military formation exuded a chilling aura, and the various forms of their condensed military spirits crashed into the great formation with the killing intent of thousands of troops.

Battering hammers as heavy as mountains, chains as venomous as snakes, and torrents of arrows as fierce as a downpour.
Each impact caused the giant golden bell to emit a deep, resonant sound, like the morning bell of an ancient temple. The golden light of the array fluctuated violently, and the ripples spread even further. The Sanskrit characters at the point of impact even experienced a momentary delay and dimming.

The combined attack of eight thousand-strong Imperial Guard units, along with a host of powerful individuals, was enough to threaten even the most formidable experts!
Wenren, who had seemingly appeared out of thin air, raised his right hand, and the Qing Shuang Army moved as well.

As soon as the blue giant took shape, without any frills, it raised its massive fist, which resembled a small hill, high. Spiral blue gales swirled around the fist, and wherever it passed, the air was compressed and exploded.

The giant fist, carrying the extreme cold that freezes everything and the immense power to shatter mountains, slammed down fiercely towards the dome of the golden bell!

Boom-! ! ! !

As the giant fist fell, space itself distorted.

The city's defensive formation has suffered an unprecedented blow!
The solidified golden bell dented inward at the center of the blow, leaving a huge fist-shaped indentation. The Sanskrit mantras in the dent flickered wildly, like a candle in the wind.

Centered on the fist imprint, a visible shockwave, like a golden tsunami, instantly swept across the entire surface of the bell. Countless swastika-shaped seals were thrown into disarray by this immense force, some even shattering into tiny specks of light.

The three illusory Arhats seated on the top of the bell shook violently, their figures becoming noticeably more ethereal, and the chanting stopped abruptly.

The power of the blue giant's punch silenced the entire battlefield, and this was only the beginning.

Its massive body leaned back slightly, gathering even more terrifying power. The ice crystal patterns covering its body suddenly lit up with a dazzling blue light, and extreme cold energy frantically gathered towards its arms.

Immediately afterwards, the blue giant's fists pounded like drums, striking the golden bell continuously from both sides!
boom! boom! boom! boom!
Each punch was powerful and heavy, carrying the frost that froze space and the immense force to shatter everything. The dense impacts blended together, like a dull and urgent death knell tolling over Vajra City.

The golden light on the giant bell's surface flickered, twisted, and deformed wildly. The previously visible fine cracks, under the continuous, terrifying blows, spread, deepened, and widened rapidly, like fissures in ice!
This terrifying offensive lasted for a full quarter of an hour.

Suddenly, a beam of Buddhist light pierced the sky and landed on the protective array of Vajra City.

The cracks on the golden bell quickly healed under the light of Buddha.

"finally come."

Wenren, who had not yet made a move, was looking up at the sky.

Without him making any move, he suddenly shot into the air.

With this action, the eight Imperial Guards, whose formations were condensed into military arrays, suddenly changed direction and flew into the air with Wenren Zheng.

They looked like eight armies charging into battle alongside their commander!
In the last battle, Wenren Zheng personally led the Qing Shuang Army, fighting against two Buddhist Heavenly Kings.

Now that the River-Suppressing Heavenly King is not here, the Buddha-Eye Heavenly King and Qin Mingli have arrived.

Wenren Zheng will not need the Qing Shuang Army this time. He will lead eight Imperial Guards to fight two against one!

In the air, Qin Mingli, who had already been terrified by Wenren Zheng, did not even show himself. He simply used the [Taiyi Heshui] technique from afar to assist Buddha Eye Heavenly King in battle.

Buddha Eye Heavenly King was quickly surrounded by Wenren Zheng's soldiers.

Below, the Azure Frost Army and its powerful warriors did not participate in the aerial battle at the summit, but continued their siege.

歘——

A vajra suddenly flew out of the void and pierced the ground in front of Vajra City.

Immediately afterwards, an array was activated, enveloping all the powerful warriors who were attacking the city!
It was Jinglian who made the move.

His breakthrough to the Prince level's 'exceeding limit' ability manifests in his luck; he is like someone who possesses Li Fei's [Jing'an] divine power, gaining a combat power boost within the Western Extremity Kingdom.

In addition, he can also actively draw upon the fortune of the Buddhist kingdom.

At this moment, Jinglian had already mobilized a portion of the Buddhist Kingdom's fortune, which allowed him to temporarily trap so many powerful figures from the Great Blue Dynasty.

Suddenly, the bursting Buddha light seemed to freeze the surrounding air, space, and even time!
This is the Azure Frost Army using its own condensed Dao principle—[Azure God's Cold Prison].

Just as Jinglian's formation and her natal magic weapon were about to be frozen, a compassionate voice seemed to come from the ends of the earth, resounding throughout the world:

Thus have I heard—

The Buddha's pure and constant words resounded!
As the Buddha's words were transmitted, the frozen formation emitted a dazzling Buddhist light, blocking the power of the Dao principles of the Azure God's Cold Prison.

Jinglian's abilities make him perfectly suited to receiving the 'blessing' of the Buddha's words, essentially turning him into Jingheng's substitute and granting him peak combat power for a short period of time!
However, this process will continuously deplete the national fortune of the Buddhist kingdom.

Seeing that Jingheng had also made a move, the Qingshuang Army stopped attacking Jingang City and switched to attacking Jinglian.

The Azure Frost Army and a group of powerful figures from the Great Blue Dynasty joined forces to deal with Pure Lotus, and for a time it was difficult to determine a winner.

In the air, Wenren Zhengqi was as strong as mountains and rivers. His muscles, bones, flesh and strength all turned into a warrior, like a million-strong army charging in formation, covering the sky and dyeing the sky blood-red!
Rays of Buddhist light occasionally pierced through the chaotic battlefield, transforming the battlefield into Buddhist light. Some of the battlefield was also continuously transformed into Taiyi Water, as if 'rebels' were constantly appearing in the army, launching counterattacks time and time again.

Buddha Eye Heavenly King's [All Light Returns to Buddha] and Qin Mingli's [Taiyi Merges with Water] are different attributes of the same type of Dao principle. Both can transform 'external forces' into 'my forces', so they are more suitable for coordinated combat.

"Amitabha Buddha, though a nation may be large, it will perish if it loves war. The Grand Marshal has launched one major war after another; how long can you hold out?"

"This is what Buddha-Eye Heavenly King said."

Wenren was throwing a punch at his opponent when Buddha Eye Heavenly King raised his arm to block. The forces of the two sides changed and clashed tens of thousands of times in an instant.

In the end, more than three hundred soldiers broke through the 'encirclement' and, like a surprise attack, breached two key acupoints of the Buddha-Eye Heavenly King!
However, before these three hundred-plus malevolent forces could inflict any damage, they were 'converted' by the Buddhist light emanating from the acupoints.

The minor wounds on Buddha-Eye Heavenly King's body healed as soon as they were exposed to Buddha's light.

However, while he was distracted by the 'invading' soldiers, Wenren Zheng suddenly raised his knee and delivered a knee strike that broke through his defenses, hitting him hard in the abdomen.

Boom! ! !

The collision of the two martial saint bodies produced a thunderous explosion.

Buddha-Eye Heavenly King flew backward, spitting out a mouthful of golden blood.

"I'll give you the same question back—how long can you last against me?!"

Wenren, having gained the upper hand, pressed on relentlessly and pursued them.

The gap between Buddha-Eye Heavenly King and him was already considerable, and the fact that he had previously used the "self-sacrifice" technique caused a deficiency in his principles, making the gap even greater.

Although they are now working together with Qin Mingli, Qin Mingli doesn't even dare to come over; he only provides support from afar using Dao principles.

A martial saint's strongest method is always close combat, and Qin Mingli's way of fighting is equivalent to 'giving up a hand'.

Wenren Zheng still has more than 8,000 Imperial Guard soldiers available. These eight soldiers are like eight grandmasters, and under his control, they are perfectly integrated and their power is unified!

While not quite comparable to the pinnacle, he could certainly hold off Qin Mingli, who had 'gone one hand', for a short time.

As a result, Buddha-Eye Heavenly King often faced Wenren Zheng alone.

He really couldn't hold on any longer!
hum-

Just as Buddha-Eye Heavenly King coughed up blood and retreated, the sound of a bell suddenly came from afar.

A deep, powerful bell toll, seemingly capable of cleansing away all evil in the world, suddenly came from the far horizon.

The bell initially sounded like muffled thunder, traveling across mountains and rivers. When it reached the sky above Vajra City, it had transformed into a magnificent roar that seemed to tear through the clouds!

As if summoned and commanded by the distant sound of bells, the enormous golden bell hanging over Vajra City suddenly burst forth with an unprecedentedly intense radiance!
On the bell's surface, countless intricate Sanskrit characters, like ignited golden stars, swirled and shone wildly. The entire giant bell instantly transformed into a sun fallen to earth, its dazzling golden light piercing the smoke of battle and illuminating the world!

Om-! ! !
Almost at the same instant, a similarly loud bell rang out from within the Vajra City.

The roar was like a tangible tidal wave, sweeping through every corner of the city, shaking the roof tiles and stirring the hearts of the people.

This is just the beginning—

From the south, in the direction of Bodhi City, a clear and melodious bell pierced the sky.

In the north, from the direction of Luohan City, a deep and resonant bell tolled, shaking the earth.

In the west, from the direction of Guanyin City, a compassionate and grand bell tolled throughout the world.

The sound of bells emanating from the Buddhist capital was like a signal to ignite a beacon fire. The four guardian cities of the east, west, south, and north responded in unison with the loudest bells!
The five bells echoed each other under the sky, forming an invisible, solemn, and sacred network of resonance that covered the core territory of the entire Western Buddhist Kingdom.

From the direction of the Buddhist capital, a condensed, dazzling golden Buddhist light shot into the sky!

Following that, Vajra City, Bodhi City, Arhat City, and Guanyin City!

Four equally thick golden pillars of light, each imbued with immense Buddhist power, erupted from the core of the four great cities like four roaring golden dragons, piercing straight into the heavens!

They converged and merged with the main Buddha light from the capital city in the extremely high sky.

Five beams of light connected to form a net, interpenetrating each other, with the immense Buddhist power flowing endlessly within the net of light.

At this moment, the four great cities guarding the Buddhist capital—Vajra City, Bodhi City, Arhat City, and Guanyin City—were no longer isolated entities, but rather forged with the central Buddhist capital into an inseparable and indestructible whole.

The power of the Vajra Nirvana Formation of the Great Sun Tathagata spread from the Buddhist capital to outside Vajra City!
The magnificent formation surrounded Wenren Zheng from all directions like a tidal wave.

In the air, with blood still stained at the corner of Buddha-Eye Heavenly King's mouth, he looked at Wenren Zheng, who was charging at him again:
"Do you really think that my Western Kingdom is a place you can come and go as you please?!"
