This martial saint's health bar is too thick

Chapter 644 Having given up everything, one returns to the peak.

Outside the Vajra Castle.

The azure giant, exuding endless chill, forcefully stormed into the Heaven and Earth Reversal Five Elements Formation.

"Xuanxin!"

Seeing that someone was causing trouble, the River Guardian King angrily questioned them.

In the void, although True Monarch Xuanxin trapped the Void Pool Clam with his layered formation, this ninth-grade beast was too large in size and was a creature that grew up in the void. Any movement of its body could stir up a void storm!
In the real world, Xuanxin Zhenjun could relatively easily trap Xuchi Han.

But in the void, the effort he needs to expend increases exponentially!
He wove a large net and trapped a big fish, but the fish's abilities were somewhat beyond his expectations.

Now he can only hold on tightly to the net and can hardly concentrate on doing anything else.

Therefore, when faced with the questioning of the River-Suppressing Heavenly King, True Lord Xuanxin could only remain silent.

He wanted Li Fei dead even more than the other side!

But one variable after another has emerged, and now we are powerless to change anything.

The blue giant, radiating overwhelming cold, had already fiercely attacked from behind the River-Suppressing Heavenly King.

Its giant fist crashed down like a collapsing, frozen mountain. Before the extremely cold fist intent even arrived, the terrifying power of the [Azure God's Frost Prison], which could freeze the soul, had already invaded the mind and consciousness of the River Suppressor King.

However, within the mind of the River-Suppressing Heavenly King, there is also a vast and magnificent martial arts river that has flowed eternally and roared endlessly!
Li Fei had previously tried several times to unleash the Seven Killings of Blood Might to shake his will, but all his efforts were in vain.

At this moment, the extreme cold will of the [Azure God's Frost Prison] invaded, but it only caused a layer of frost to appear on the surface of the River of Mind. Then the ice layer shattered and was completely washed away by the surging torrent.

Boom——

The giant fist fell like a mountain, but was blocked by a long river of martial arts that flew out from the void just as it was about to hit the River Suppressor King.

On the other side, Li Fei seized the opportunity to switch from defense to offense, transforming his "Save the Day" into "Ignorance of the Sky"—

A brilliant ray of light tore through space, shooting upwards and colliding with the giant Buddha's palm in the air.

The changing seasons and the ever-changing scenery unfold in the sunlight.

It also includes the changes of the six realms of reincarnation.

In addition, there is a long golden river flowing and surging within it!
After refining and pushing the limits of "Turning the Tide," Li Fei incorporated some Buddhist martial arts into "Ignorant of the Sky."

The limits of "not knowing the sky's limit" have also been raised!
【Turning the Tide】 and 【Ignorance of the Sky】, one offensive and one defensive, were originally killer moves tailor-made for Li Fei, both possessing the characteristic of breaking limits time and time again!
The dazzling light, like a divine sword, pierced through the swastika in the center of the Buddha's palm, and then completely penetrated the palm.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Heavenly King of Zhenhe was distracted in dealing with the Azure Frost Army, Li Fei broke through the suppression of the Great Thousand Seal in one fell swoop.

But before he could use [Boundless Distance] to escape, countless invisible 'threads' wrapped around his body again.

Zhenhe Tianwang withstood an attack from the Qingshuang Army, his body covered in frost, and promptly unleashed the [Karma Effect] on Li Fei!
Li Fei used himself as a sword to continuously sever the silk threads on his body, but these threads were growing wildly and could not be cut off at all, and they were penetrating deeper and deeper into his flying sword body!
Although the [Cause and Effect] technique is unlikely to harm Li Fei, it can still trap him for a while.

The Heavenly King of the River Suppressor suddenly rose up like a golden meteor, instantly appearing above the thousand-meter-tall blue giant and stomping down with his foot.

Boom——! ! !
The giant was struck so hard that its body sank hundreds of meters down and was slammed into the ground.

Its head instantly caved in and cracked, covered with countless fissures.

Within the military formation, the bodies of more than a hundred Imperial Guard soldiers, along with the weapons on their bodies, were instantly torn to pieces and exploded into a bloody mist!
Having landed a successful blow, the River-Suppressing Heavenly King's offensive intensified. His figure moved like lightning, and he once again appeared on the giant's chest, unleashing a thunderous punch; followed by the lower abdomen, back, and legs.
In an instant, he launched a fierce and relentless attack on the giant's vital points with overwhelming force!

At this moment, he unleashed his full power beyond his limits, each strike containing terrifying power capable of shattering mountains and breaking peaks, leaving the giants formed by the Azure Frost Army utterly powerless to fight back!

However, the brilliance of military formations does not lie in their superficial shape.

Every time the Heavenly King of the River Suppressors lands a punch on the blue giant, a layer of frost forms on his body, and the chill emanating from him intensifies.

After a dozen or so punches, Zhenhe Tianwang suddenly froze, and the colossal blue giant's body abruptly disintegrated, transforming into a dozen or so raging torrents of frost, which surged back like glaciers breaking free of their shackles, instantly engulfing him completely!
But the next moment, a golden torrent broke through the ice and rushed out.

The long river and the frost were like two great armies, fiercely clashing and attacking each other in the air!
The former seemed to have endless support, with new golden rivers constantly surging from the void to join the battle, its momentum enduring.

Although the Azure Frost Army temporarily trapped the enemy with its extreme cold properties, it was ultimately no match for the inexhaustible power of Buddhism and quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.

On the other hand, Li Fei was still unable to break free from the shackles of [being entangled in karma].

However, without the suppression of the River-Suppressing Heavenly King, both [Blood Breath] and [Blood Spring] are rapidly recovering their Blood Soul.

A torrent of countless sword energies surged forth from the void, crashing into the golden river!

This is Li Fei using [Boundless Distance] to remotely unleash [Same Robe as You].

Another golden dragon of fortune flew out from the void and merged into the frost to protect it from damage.

Qin Ziheng remotely bestowed the nation's fortune upon the Qing Shuang Army!

The battlefield was originally located within the territory of the Western Extremity Kingdom, making it very difficult and costly to remotely enhance the nation's fortune.

However, with Li Fei using his [Jing'an] supernatural power to open a 'temporary passage,' the matter became more manageable.

With the blessing of national fortune and the support of Li Fei's "comrade-in-arms" spirit, the Qing Shuang Army immediately stabilized its position.

Although still at a disadvantage, the rate of casualties has slowed down, allowing them to engage in a war of attrition with Zhenhe Tianwang.

The Heavenly King of Zhenhe turned to look at Li Fei, and even his Buddhist heart felt a surge of irritation.

He had long known that Li Fei possessed the ability to quickly recover his life force during battle, and today's fight revealed that his recovery speed was actually getting faster and faster!

In this way, if he only uses [Karma] to trap Li Fei and fights the Qing Shuang Army alone, Li Fei will recover quickly.

But if he turns his attention to deal with Li Fei, he will have to endure continuous attacks from the Qing Shuang Army.

Now that the Azure Frost Army has been blessed by the nation's fortune, the power of the Dao has reached a new level. Moreover, the characteristic of the [Azure God's Frost Prison] is that the damage accumulates continuously. The longer you fight, the more intense the accumulated chill becomes!
Even the Heavenly King of Zhenhe dared not allow the Qingshuang Army to continue attacking him.

Without hesitating for long, the River-Suppressing Heavenly King broke through the frost-covered sky and charged towards Li Fei once again.

Between two evils, he chose the lesser one; he could not allow Li Fei to gradually recover.

Otherwise, all the previous efforts will be in vain.

The reappearance of the [Great Thousand Seal] forced Li Fei to use the [Save the Sky] defense once again.

The streams of azure frost rivers converged again, transforming into azure giants that swung their fists at the River Suppressor King.

Boom boom boom boom——

The fist was blocked by the golden river, which erupted with a series of muffled thunderclaps.

A chill spread through the body of the River-Suppressing Heavenly King.

He neither dodged nor dodged, continuing to maintain the [Great Thousand Seal] despite the attacks from the Azure Frost Army, willing to suffer damage to kill Li Fei!

The body of the Azure Frost Army disintegrated again, turning into frost streams that flew towards the Buddha's palm in the air.

The surface of the Buddha's palm was instantly covered with layers of frost, which broke and reformed again and again under the Buddha's light.

Rather than taking the opportunity to severely damage Zhenhe Tianwang, saving Li Fei's life was the Qing Shuang Army's primary objective.

With the help of the Azure Frost Army in defense, Li Fei's pressure was greatly reduced, and the recovery speed of his Blood Soul finally caught up with the rate of consumption.

However, instead of restoring the blood souls within the Myriad Blood Pearl, he used the restored blood souls to cast [Sword Sacrifice].

Firstly, keeping the number of blood souls within the Myriad Blood Beads extremely low maximizes the recovery speed of [Blood Breath].

Secondly, Li Fei had already consumed tens of thousands of blood souls using the [Sword Sacrifice] divine power. The drawback of this life-burning fighting style is that it is impossible to maintain peak strength indefinitely, and his power will gradually decline.

Li Fei's continuous input of new blood souls allows the power of [Sword Sacrifice] to increase rather than decrease until a new balance is reached. That is, after [Blood Breath] condenses into blood crystals, a new 'Ultimate Sword State' is achieved!
In addition, the limits of [Turning the Tide] are also slowly increasing.

However, all of this was achieved at the cost of the lives of the soldiers of the Qing Shuang Army!
Within the battle formation, one Imperial Guard soldier after another died.
In the void, the Xuanxin True Monarch, whose formations were constantly stacked, suddenly changed his expression drastically.

He received a message from the Shangqing Sect—

The mountain gate was suddenly attacked, with more than two hundred new cannons continuously firing at the mountain protection formation!
Master Wulin of the Feather Transformation Sect led a group of powerful warriors to attack the mountain!
"Ye Ze'an! Yuhua Sect"

Xuanxin Zhenjun gritted his teeth.

Before coming here, he had already arranged for Master Xuanchen to return to the sect to oversee things.

With a prince-level combatant within the sect, along with the mountain-protecting formation and a group of powerful figures from the Shangqing Sect, even a top-tier expert would not be able to break through the mountain in a short time.

However, the sudden appearance of more than two hundred cannons and Wu Lin and others from the Feathered Ascension Sect still made True Monarch Xuanxin uneasy.

The grand formation of the Xuanmo Kingdom's imperial palace was breached by new-style cannons.

Li Fei and the White Flame Army relied on new-style artillery to capture the grassland city overnight.

Xuanxin Zhenjun was aware of both of these battle examples.

What worried him even more was that people from the Feather Transformation Sect had actually gone?!

Has the Feathered Ascension Sect been persuaded by the Great Blue Dynasty and chosen to take sides?
Will the newly promoted True Lord Wu Hui come to Vajra City?
Or perhaps the other side simply went directly to the Shangqing Sect, intending to break through its gates in one fell swoop?
It's impossible for more than two hundred cannons to be transported to the gates of Shangqing Sect in such a short time; the imperial court must have been making preparations in secret long ago.

Without even thinking, Xuanxin Zhenjun knew that this must be the Prime Minister's doing!
What other tricks does the other side have up their sleeve?
Could the other side have also planted people within the Shangqing Sect, waiting for a crucial moment to launch a coordinated attack from within and without to break the mountain-protecting formation?

For a moment, True Monarch Xuanxin felt a faint sense of fear.

He couldn't help but worry about his sect.

Once the protective formation is breached and the sect is captured, everything will be over!
Even if Li Fei were killed today, achieving a three-way balance of power, it would mean nothing to Xuanxin Zhenjun.

"Why haven't they killed him yet?!"

Xuanxin Zhenjun couldn't help but question Zhenhe Tianwang, "You think I don't want to kill?!"

The Heavenly King of Zhenhe was equally furious.

He even went so far as to deplete his own Dao principles and unleash his power beyond the limit, but the arrival of the Azure Frost Army gave Li Fei a chance to catch his breath.

Xuanxin Zhenjun originally wanted to say that Wenren was trapped in the Buddhist formation at the time, and he fought against three Martial Saints by himself and killed them all in the end.

You're only fighting two top-tier combatants, and you can't even kill one of them?
But in the end, he held back and didn't say anything.

Firstly, Li Fei is indeed more resilient and harder to kill than a Martial Saint who is formed from destiny.

Secondly, there's no point in arguing now.

"The Shangqing Sect's mountain gate was attacked, and people from the Yuhua Sect were involved."

Xuanxin Zhenjun informed Zhenhe Tianwang of the message he had received.

"The Feather Transformation Sect? Wu Hui has made a move?"

The Heavenly King of Zhenhe is more concerned about this.

Xuan Xin: "They haven't shown themselves yet, but if this drags on, I'll have no choice but to go back to defend."

Zhenhe Tianwang: "."

He had thought that Ming Qi would be the first one on his side to give out, but he never expected that it would be Xuan Xin.

"Wait a little longer. Taiyu will definitely come after receiving the news."

"It is the Heavenly King of Zhenhe," he said.

Xuanxin: "How can you guarantee that Taiyu will definitely help us?"

The River-Suppressing Heavenly King: "He has no reason not to help!"

This explanation clearly failed to reassure True Lord Xuanxin.

Since even the Feather Transformation Sect, which was least likely to intervene, has publicly taken sides, the situation with the Great Luo Sect may not be entirely secure.

"Amitabha."

A Buddhist chant was heard.

Ming Qi, who had used the Great Vajra Dharma Form to intercept the White Flame Dragon, noticed the situation on the side of Zhenhe Heavenly King.

He did not hear what Xuanxin Zhenjun said, but with his crystal-clear Buddha heart, he keenly sensed that the other party had already decided to retreat.

"My Lord, please do not be hasty. This humble monk has another method."

Ming Qi's calm voice came through.

"Holy Monk, please use whatever other methods you have as soon as possible."

Faced with this Buddhist disciple who originally had a bright future but was willing to sacrifice himself, Xuanxin Zhenjun had some respect for him.

Ming Qi clasped his hands together, his face expressionless, as if he had transcended all suffering.

Behind him, the towering, majestic Vajra statue emitted a mournful cry of unbearable strain. Cracks spread from its core, and it then collapsed with a bang, transforming into billions of dazzling golden Buddhist lights, which fell like starlight and merged into the flames surrounding him!
Originally a void, devoid of any presence, he now burst forth with an indescribable, ultimate light from within. His radiance was pure and intense, instantly engulfing all the other colors on the battlefield and becoming the only bright spot in the world!
"I am willing to sacrifice my life, flesh, bones, and bones, to continue this bond with you."

The grand and solemn words of the Buddha once again echoed from the place where Jingheng was.

It is still the same book that contains the supreme merit of self-sacrifice, the "Sutra on the Practice of Self-Sacrifice"!
Ming Qi has already relinquished all seven of his great supernatural powers, and this time, he is about to relinquish his Martial Saint body—

Blood! Flesh! Skin! Tendons! Bones!

All abandoned!

First to boil was the blood of the Martial Saint flowing within his body. That blood was no longer the ordinary scarlet, but a pure and flawless golden color that had been refined to the extreme.

The fiery blood broke free from the constraints of his body, surging out from every part of Ming Qi's body, transforming into a vast, magnificent, and dazzling golden river of blood!
Then came his incredibly tough skin, that of a martial saint.

His skin suddenly unfolded, detaching from his body, and continued to expand in endless radiance, becoming infinitely vast. Its color turned into a pure and heavy earth gold, on which countless patterns naturally appeared. Each pattern resembled a dragon or snake coiled around, or a naturally formed Sanskrit character.

Then there is the flesh of a martial saint, which contains boundless power.

On Ming Qibao's radiant body, flesh and blood were peeled away inch by inch, yet there was no trace of bloodiness; instead, a warm and peaceful Buddhist light emanated from it.

Every piece of flesh detached from the body underwent violent changes in the air, wriggling, growing, and reshaping. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a million monks who upheld the precepts!
Next, the tendons of the Martial Saint were drawn out of his body and transformed into guardian dragons, which coiled and intertwined in the air.

Finally, there is the bone of the Martial Saint that bears all—

All 206 bones in his body vibrated simultaneously, emitting a thunderous roar, before bursting out of his body.

They swirl, combine, and construct amidst the chanting of Buddhist scriptures. In an instant, a majestic, sacred, and solemn nine-tiered pagoda floats in the air.

The power displayed by the body of a Martial Saint was even more astonishing than when Ming Qi abandoned all seven supernatural powers at the same time, and the resulting power was even stronger.

This is because when Ming Qi gave up his Martial Saint body, he also gave up all his luck!

He broke cultivation records and became the youngest Martial Saint in history, which would have given him a boost of luck.

With the addition of the fortune to become a Martial Saint and the fortune to be a disciple of Buddha, the triple fortune made his personal fortune extremely strong!

At this moment, all the fortune was completely integrated into the Martial Saint's body, and then abandoned together!
By relinquishing all supernatural powers to achieve sainthood, Ming Qi's life was destined to end soon.

So, the moment he decided to take this step, he had already decided on the manner of his death—

Before one's own realm collapses, one must abandon one's own fortune and the status of a Martial Saint!

Mingqi, this Buddha of Lapis Lazuli, was originally an abandoned child, and everything he had came from Buddhism.

Now, he has returned everything to Buddhism and vanished into the world.

Leaving no trace, just like the Dao he condensed—

Complete selflessness!

Or perhaps, he has already reached the other shore in his heart.

There he would find the person he wanted to see.

……

"Welcome the holy monk Mingqi, who sacrificed himself to become a Buddha!"

As a senior figure, the Heavenly King of Zhenhe temporarily halted his offensive and bowed to Chaoming.

Seeing this scene, Li Fei, who was being suppressed by the Buddha's palm, showed sadness and was filled with anger.

The Buddhists not only made Mingqi give up his promising future to die, but they also squeezed every last drop of flesh from him, making the most of Mingqi's death!

He talks a lot about compassion, but where is there even a trace of compassion in his actions?
In the sky, the crystal-clear blood river, a million monks, and guardian dragons—all these things transformed into boundless light, merging into the Great Sun Tathagata Vajra Nirvana Array above the heavens.

A martial saint who broke through to the top through the path of 'sacrificing oneself to become a Buddha' rapidly condensed and refined the immense power and fortune gained through self-sacrifice within the great formation, and then moved towards Pudu Temple.

Above the Buddha City.

It was still an apocalyptic scene of dark clouds, lightning, thunder, tornadoes, and ice blades flying everywhere.

Suddenly, a beam of Buddha's light pierced through the dark clouds and landed on the blue lamp in front of the Buddha in the main hall of Pudu Temple.

Immediately following was the rolling sound of Ming Qisheng's last chanting of scriptures:

"I have made a great vow by sacrificing my life: If any sentient being is hungry and wants to eat my flesh, or thirsty and wants to drink my blood, I will drink it and eat it."

May all sentient beings, upon consuming my flesh, awaken the Bodhicitta, be freed from the suffering of hunger and thirst, and in the future attain the joy of Dharma and other sustenance to nourish their own bodies.

Those who drink my blood will be freed from all thirst and attachment, and will receive the water of Dharma to nourish their hearts. They will be endowed with the transformative body of the King of Dharma, and by this reason, will swiftly attain unsurpassed, perfect enlightenment!

It is still the "Sutra on the Practice of Self-Sacrifice".

Jingheng began with Buddhist teachings, and Mingqi concluded with his life as the stake.

The Buddha's light fell on the green lamp in front of the Buddha, and the originally flickering flame suddenly shone brightly!
This ritual implement left by the Buddha represents the last vestige of Buddhism.

It was used once before, to deal with Wenren Zheng, who was a lone adversary of a nation.

Now that it has been put back into use, just like Mingqi, the Green Lamp has also burned itself out completely!

Jingheng, who had been sitting cross-legged on the futon, stood up and made a gesture with one hand.

The green lamp left the Buddhist altar and flew into his left palm.

He was seriously injured in the battle of Lanling City, and then Wenren Zheng broke into the Buddhist Kingdom alone, which aggravated his injuries.

After nearly two years of recuperation, he still has not recovered. The Buddha of this era, who was once as famous as Qingxu, can only rank sixth on the list of the most outstanding.

At this moment, his aura surged higher and higher!
hum-

Inside Pudu Temple, all 108 bells rang simultaneously.

Buddha Jingheng, returned to the pinnacle!
