From the Ming Dynasty, we will conquer the world

Chapter 102: Uncle Tianjue said that he wants to build a new Shaolin, do you guys want to invest? (One Thousand Eleven, please vote)
In that attack just now, Tian Jue had pushed the power of "Six Paths of Reincarnation" to the extreme.

The remaining power of the "Three Good Paths" flowed through his body, penetrating a line between his eyebrows and nailing his entire body to the ground. He seemed to have incarnated the sacred Mount Sumeru in the Buddhist scriptures that suppressed the four continents and was the axis of the sun, moon and stars.

Even the power of the "Three Evil Paths" that had already been broken was under the command of the "Heavenly Path" that symbolizes the thirty-three heavens, absorbing endless murderous aura and condensing again.

Even if it was a top master, if he launched an attack on Tian Jue at this time, his internal strength would first be weakened and transformed by the "Three Evil Ways".

This is exactly the ability of starting, supporting and turning that comes from the "Four Doors Screen Method".

Although Tian Jue gave up the final "fourth door" combination, the effect of rotating and dissipating energy of the first three doors was greatly improved.

Even if he did not absorb the murderous energy of heaven and earth, just by activating the "Three Evil Paths" by himself, he was already several times stronger than Ling Luoshi.

If the internal strength of this master is too condensed and strong, exceeding the endurance limit of the "Three Evil Paths" and is difficult to completely transform, Tian Jue can still activate the power of the "Human Path".

The human world symbolizes the various aspects of life, known as a dream, which can trigger numerous illusions, confuse the mind of the visitor and blind his six senses.

This effect is extremely similar to the "Vajra Demon Subduing Circle" of the "Three Days". After all, the "Vajra Demon Subduing Circle" is originally a degradation of the "Six Paths of Reincarnation Array".

However, the same method, when used by Tian Jue, is much better than "San Tian". Not only can he control the six senses, he can also use them to evolve all kinds of human phenomena and all kinds of life, and wear down his opponent's fighting spirit.

Internal strength originates from the spirit and is a product of transforming the virtual into the real. Once the desire to fight is gone and the fighting spirit is not aroused, even the most powerful combat power will be difficult to exert to the fullest.

If the opponent is truly a top-notch person with profound skills, a heart as hard as iron, who is not moved by external things and is determined to kill the enemy, and can successively break through the turning force formation of the "Three Evil Ways" and ignore the effectiveness of the "Human Way" and advance all the way, Tian Jue still has a way.

"Ashura Road" is prepared for such powerful people.

In order to unleash their strongest and unreserved power, masters will be full of murderous intent towards their opponents. This is especially true for the strongest people who can break through the "human world".

However, Tian Jue was able to intercept the murderous intent in the person's mind, transform it into the power of "Ashura Path", and then mobilize the demonic power of "Three Evil Paths" to strangle him from both inside and outside.

With such a set of processes, even the strongest masters would find it difficult to resist.

This is why the "Six Paths of Reincarnation Array" is so difficult to break free from that even Tian Jue, the master of the array who created it.

Because this is indeed a perfect and invincible formation.

But Tian Jue obviously didn't expect that there would be someone like Xu Xing in this world.

His fighting spirit was so strong that it was difficult to suppress. This should have been the best nourishment for the "Ashura Path", but it did not contain the slightest murderous intent.

Naturally, Xu Xing did not have the slightest intention to kill Tian Jue.

After all, the two of them are basically fellow martial artists. Even if they are going to fight to the death, it is not to kill each other, but just to verify their own martial arts.

Therefore, the fighting spirit that Tian Jue felt from him can be said to be a kind of transcendent and progressive ambition that comes from the most basic, original and purest level of life.

Survival of the fittest, the origin of the evolution of all things, is to constantly surpass oneself and break through limits.

In Xu Xing's mind, this will to fight best represents the word "life".

For him, every success in a challenge and every victory in a struggle will make his life more exciting and passionate. This is what life should be like!
Being so belligerent yet still maintaining a non-bloodthirsty will is something Tian Jue has never seen before.

Therefore, the power of "Ashura Dao", which is best at utilizing the will to fight and kill, naturally returned empty-handed.

It's not just a simple matter of returning empty-handed.

The power of "Ashura Road" was even infected by this lofty ambition and became a help to Xu Xing!

With one punch, Tian Jue's "Six Paths of Reincarnation Formation" immediately collapsed!

It was at this moment that Tian Jue reached the realm he had envisioned.

He knew that he had succeeded.

But that also failed.

At the moment when the six realms of reincarnation collapsed, he did touch upon an unprecedented mysterious realm through the only remaining "Heavenly Way", but this moment of enlightenment came at the cost of the complete destruction of his physical body.

However, Tian Jue was a person who believed that "if I could hear the truth in the morning, I would be happy to die in the evening". Before he died, he was able to touch this new realm that he had been pursuing all his life. He had no resentment in his heart, only peace and satisfaction.

But Tian Jue didn't expect that even though Xu Xing's body was shattered, he was still able to withstand the backlash of the force and forced himself to withdraw his attack before killing him.

Immediately afterwards, the blood mist that burst out from Xu Xing's arm was swept up by a powerful mental force and completely merged into Tian Jue's body.

Xu Xing's current physique of a true Buddha is not much different from the flesh of Tang Monk in the vernacular novel. The blood flowing from his body is naturally a unique treasure from heaven and earth.

Not to mention the living dead, at least the bones can be made into flesh.

Even though Tian Jue was at the end of his life and his mind was in a trance and he was about to die completely, he still felt a strong vitality pouring into his body like a mountain torrent bursting through a dam.

Then, the red blood and blue-black veins in his body all disappeared, the bone fractures healed, the swelling of the flesh subsided, and his injuries healed.

This is why, even though Tian Jue’s breathing and heartbeat had clearly stopped, he was still able to manifest the signs of birth and death.

With Xu Xing's help, Tian Jue was finally reborn into Nirvana, escaped from the cycle of reincarnation, and regained his long-lost sanity.

After waking up, looking at Xu Xing who was seriously injured but still didn't care, Tian Jue, no matter how arrogant he was, had to admire him sincerely and admit defeat.

As soon as these words were spoken, many masters watching the battle around Tallinn were all in an uproar.

In the battle just now, Tian Jue has fully demonstrated his strength as a top martial arts master.

The monks of Shaolin Temple felt this particularly clearly.

The fact that he is proficient in all 72 unique skills and has innovated almost every one of them is enough to prove that Tianjue is a figure who can be compared with the founder Bodhidharma.

Not to mention, he also has the "Six Paths of Reincarnation" which shocked the world and is unprecedented!
The Shaolin monks even felt that even if Bodhidharma were to be resurrected, he would most likely be defeated if he were to face off against such a powerful monk.

After all, Monk Tianjue has almost completely utilized Shaolin's hundreds of years of martial arts accumulation, which is a foundation that Bodhidharma definitely does not have.

But such a powerful person who is comparable to the founder and has created a new world for the authentic martial arts of Buddhism, would actually sincerely admit defeat in front of a young boy?
From Tian Xiang down, more than sixty Shaolin monks were all speechless. They unconsciously cast their gazes on Xu Xing, who looked miserable and was seriously injured.

Not to mention them, even Qiao Feng and others realized for the first time that their friend's strength had reached such a level.

Tie Shou and Jiumozhi, who participated in the Battle of Chaotian Villa, were even more shocked by Xu Xing's terrifying speed of progress.

Although only a very short time had passed, the martial arts progress of the Xiaoyao Sect's leader was so great that it couldn't even be described as a thousand miles a day. It could be said that he had made another two or three hundred feet of progress!
Looking at that tall and heroic figure, everyone felt the same way.

There is no doubt that the person in front of him is the well-deserved new generation leader of the underworld, the best in the world!
Xu Xing took his words calmly.

After all, he could have taken the opportunity to take Tianjue's life just now, and it took him a lot of effort to help the old monk succeed. It was only natural for him to accept this gift.

During the fierce battle just now, Tian Jue had already felt that Xu Xing and he had many similarities. They both had the same amazing talent, and were both crazy and obsessed martial arts fanatics who were not afraid of anything, even at the cost of their lives for it.

He even thought that he and Xu Xing were mirror images of each other.

But it was not until this moment that Tian Jue realized that even though the two had many similarities, there were still decisive differences.

If it were him, once he went crazy in fighting, he would certainly attack without caring about anything, using all his best skills just for momentary pleasure, and would not care about his opponent at all.

But since Xu Xing obtained this hard-earned second life, he has always cherished every life. Unless he believes that the person is hopeless or the crime is unforgivable, he will never kill at will.

Xu Xing's experience told him that everyone's possibilities are endless. If they are eliminated without authorization, the world will only become more and more boring.

What he hates most in his life is boring and dull things.

In fact, Xu Xing prefers teaching people more than killing them.

He teaches people not to expect anything in return, and certainly not to be remembered by others.

Xu Xing only regarded these people as unique scenery he encountered during his journey. Even if they were chance encounters, it was a coincidence.

He was very happy to see these friends blooming with different style and brilliance after receiving his help.

Jiumozhi, who had achieved great enlightenment, Duan Yu, who had been reborn, Yan Zhao, who was about to join the Xiaoyao Sect and contribute to the cause of the Beggars' Sect, and even Wu Xingyun, who was "initiation" by him, all belong to this category.

Although Tian Jue and Xu Xing had not known each other for long, for top masters of their level, a life-and-death battle with lives at stake was enough to surpass thousands of words of communication.

People are most sincere only before life and death, so he can fully feel the feelings in Xu Xing's heart.

After a moment of silence, Tian Jue sighed:

"Master Xu, your bearing is truly the best that I have ever seen in my life."

Faced with such praise, Xu Xing just smiled.

After a night of fierce fighting, it is now almost dawn. The thick smoke and dust raised by the aftermath have faded, the morning light has come in, and the scene here has gradually become clear.

At first glance, the ground is uneven. The current Tallinn can be said to be a relic, and a decayed relic that has been ravaged by time for hundreds and thousands of years.

The ground is sunken from all sides towards the center, and the edges are full of jagged arches, like broken peaks and mountains, with branches growing outwards. Although the battle between the strong is over, this place is still filled with the atmosphere of a tragic and dangerous fight to the death.

In the center is a hemispherical pit of a meteorite impact crater. The surrounding area is charred black and filled with white smoke and burnt gas. The burnt gas carries an indescribable high temperature and heat that rolls in all directions.

This was when Xu Xing just made his move. The blood in his body was surging, and finally the heat overflowed.

When all the masters were watching the battle just now, their expressions were extremely tense. They didn't notice until this moment that the temperature at the foot of the mountain had reached such a high level.

All of them had extraordinary internal strength, and had long reached the point where they were immune to cold and heat. However, Yue Fei, who still had little strength, felt that his internal strength was not deep enough, and when he touched his forehead, he found his hands were full of shiny beads of sweat.

It was not until this moment that he realized that his heavy clothes were soaked with sweat and his lips were dry and cracked, as if he had been exposed to the scorching sun for several hours. Even his head began to feel dizzy.

The others couldn't help but hold their breath as they looked at the wonder created by the aftermath of the battle between the two powerful men.

Except for Yue Fei, every master standing here possesses extraordinary martial arts power beyond that of ordinary people, and can easily break gold and split stone.

There are quite a few top-notch martial arts masters who can "fight one against a hundred", such as Jiumozhi, Yan Zhao and others who are the overlords of a region. Even if they fight against thousands of troops, it will not be difficult for them.

Possessing such power, even if their minds are not completely distorted by the power and they do not become violent and irritable maniacs, they cannot help but develop a sense of arrogance as "strong" or "experts".

Even someone as calm as Xu Zhu would feel a little proud and excited when he first realized that he possessed extraordinary martial powers.

However, in front of Xu Xing and Tian Jue, two peerless strong men whose battlefield stretched for hundreds of feet and the aftermath of their fight was enough to destroy everything that stood in their way, creating such a spectacular scene, the arrogance and self-confidence in everyone's hearts were ruthlessly stripped away.

Even top masters like Tian Xiang felt insignificant from the bottom of their hearts. The closer the masters were to the level of these two people, the more they could feel how powerful they were.

——So strong. Really so strong.

Apart from this feeling of inferiority, Qiao Feng, Wu Xingyun and others also have aspirations and expectations in their hearts, and their enthusiasm for martial arts is unprecedentedly high.

——Can we be this strong?!

As everyone sighed, Tian Jue also looked around at the ruined tower forest and sighed:
"I have been dreaming for decades. The long dream is really like a thick callus. Now I am fortunate to have the help of your Excellency and be reborn. No matter what you ask for, I will not refuse."

As he spoke, Tian Jue took a step forward.

Only then did everyone see that behind him, there was a long shadow, like a mural, printed on the devastated land. The shape was extremely clear, and it was Tian Jue's own back.

Tian Xiang looked at it for a while, and said with emotion:

"Dharma's photo, it is indeed a photo of Dharma."

He raised his head, clasped his hands together towards Tian Jue, and sighed deeply:
"Congratulations, brother, you finally got what you wanted."

With him taking the lead, the other Shaolin monks all turned around and congratulated in unison:
"Congratulations, Uncle/Grand-uncle, for achieving divine power!"

According to legend, Bodhidharma stayed in a Buddhist temple, sat facing the wall, and remained silent all day for nine years. Therefore, this cave was named Bodhidharma Cave. It is seven feet deep and four and a half feet wide.

Bodhidharma faced the wall in the cave for a long time. His shadow was cast on the stone in the cave, leaving behind a figure facing the wall. The wrinkles in his clothes were faintly visible, like a light blue ink painting.

This is Bodhidharma’s practice of Buddhism.

For example, Tian Jue only stood in one place for a moment, but he could actually make his shadow appear on the earth.

Such martial arts skills are even more horrifying than Bodhidharma's.

At this time, Xu Xing's flesh had almost melted into a piece of transparent paper, as if it was about to melt into the light all over the sky, completely disappearing into thin air. His flawless and perfect face was filled with an inhuman sense of sacredness.

He stood in the ruins, like a god descending from the ninth heaven to the earth, about to completely revolutionize all that was stale and decayed.

Even if Xu Xing was just standing here, his extremely tall and majestic figure made everyone look up at him unconsciously.

Xu Xing smiled and stretched out his hand to invite him:
"That's a long story. Why don't we talk while we walk?"

Tian Jue, like Tian Xiang and others, devoted themselves to martial arts and did not care about worldly matters, so they were not clear about the whole story of Qiao Feng's affairs.

However, as soon as he saw the uncomfortable faces of the Shaolin monks, he knew there must be something else going on, so he nodded and said:

"Alright, alright."

After the two most powerful men reached a consensus, the two masters looked at each other, and their tense nerves finally relaxed. They no longer guarded against each other, and each of them breathed a sigh of relief with a look on their faces.

After the battle just now, all the Shaolin people have fully realized that Xu Xing and others can not only break into the mountain gate, but if they want to, they can kill everyone in Shaolin Temple and leave no one alive.

And Qiao Feng and the others also understood from this battle that with Tian Jue and the three great monks of the Tian generation present, if the two sides really fought with real swords and guns, even if they could achieve the final victory, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.

They came to Shaolin just to seek an answer, and naturally did not want to have such a big conflict with the Shaolin monks.

What's more, Qiao Feng was born in Shaolin and had deep feelings for this ancestral home of Zen Buddhism. Unless it was necessary, he absolutely did not want to go into battle with his former teachers and companions, or fight for life and death.

The happiest person among them was naturally Xu Zhu.

Although he was willing to stand up against Xuan Shi and others for Qiao Feng's sake, he really didn't want to see his own sect flooded with blood. Naturally, the best outcome would be to end it after a fierce battle.

While some people are happy, naturally some people are depressed. The most depressed ones are the three great Tantric masters: Jiumozhi, Liang Dian and Cai Kuang.

They originally wanted to take advantage of Xu Xing's momentum and take the opportunity to weigh the importance of Shaolin Temple, or even take advantage of the power of the powerful and simply use the name of their own Tantric Buddhism.

However, they never imagined that they would find it difficult to deal with the "Eighteen Arhats Formation" and the "Three Days" "Vajra Subduing Demon Circle" made the three great masters helpless.

Moreover, even if Tian Xiang and the others did not form a formation, and only relied on their martial arts skills to fight alone, the three of them felt that they would be unable to resist.

However, Jiumozhi and others also had great ambitions. After witnessing Xu Xing's process of breaking the formation, the three of them had some insights.

They are confident that if they practice for another ten or twenty years, they will at least have the opportunity to enter the battle themselves and challenge it.

Just as the three of them were using this thought to comfort themselves and regain their confidence, they saw the former "Nine-Five God" Song Baoshi, reappearing in the world under the name of Tianjue, representing the Shaolin Temple to fight Xu Xing.

No matter how confident the three of them were, they couldn't help but feel despair at this moment, and they had to admit that the current Shaolin Temple did have the strength to maintain its position as the orthodox Buddhist sect.

Their road to challenge in Tantric Buddhism is still long and arduous.

Just when everyone was feeling mixed emotions, someone among the monks of the Xuan generation looked at the pagoda forest that had been shattered into ruins, and thought of the Shaolin Temple gate that had just collapsed due to Tian Jue, and suddenly he felt sad.

Although he also knew that facing such a terrifying enemy as Xu Xing, Shaolin was lucky that only some buildings were destroyed and there were not too many casualties, he still couldn't help feeling emotional.

This person is none other than Master Xuan Du, who is highly respected in the temple.

Although Xuan Du tried his best to suppress his anger, he was still noticed by others. Another tall and burly old monk stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice:

"Brother, it's just some dead things that have been destroyed, why are you acting like this?"

The person who spoke was Qiao Feng's mentor, Master Xuan Ku.

After hearing these words, many monks turned around and looked at the burly old monk with extremely strange expressions. Some were even angry.

Even Tiandou from the Three Heavens turned around and glared at Xuanku. His chest was heaving, his face was twitching, and his long white beard was trembling. It was obvious that he was extremely angry.

If Tian Dou had not been concerned about the presence of Xu Xing and others, with his temperament, he would have scolded Xuan Ku on the spot.

Because although he has a explosive temper, he always respects his teachers.

The people Tiandou respected most in his life were the previous Shaolin abbot Tianzheng and the "Five Elders" who taught him martial arts, and then it was the turn of Tianjue, the eldest senior brother who became a monk late.

The pagoda where the ashes of Tianzheng and the "Five Elders" were buried was just destroyed in the battle between Xu Xing and Tian Jue.

Tiandou really cared about this matter very much, but like Xuanku, he knew that this was the best outcome, so he suppressed his anger and did not speak.

It was only after hearing Xuan Ku speak that he finally could no longer bear it.

You are a Shaolin disciple, and you say such things. Where do you put the sages?
Not only the people from Shaolin Temple, but even the masters from Xu Xing's side looked at Xuan Ku in surprise. Qiao Feng even opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopped.

However, even when Xuan Ku faced the angry look from his uncle Tian Dou, he did not retreat at all. He just lowered his head, clasped his hands together and said:

"May I ask my fellow practitioners and the four seniors, what is the cause of today's disaster?"

This……

When hearing this question, most Shaolin monks were a little confused.

They came here only because Xuannan rang the bell to summon them.

In fact, many people initially thought that the group of powerful Taoist priests on Mount Wudang were unwilling to be lonely and wanted to start a dispute between Taoism and Buddhism.

However, after Xu Xing and others went up the mountain, doubts began to arise in the minds of the knowledgeable monks.

After all, the identities of this group of people are really too prominent.

Xiaoyao Sect, Zizai Sect, Beggars' Sect, Tantric Buddhism, Jinfengxiyu Tower, and even evil forces like Chaotian Villa have all united to attack Shaolin.

Who would believe it if there was no involvement?

Especially when seeing Tie Shou and Zhui Ming, even the monks who were most confident in Shaolin couldn't help but feel suspicious.

After all, the reputation of the Shenhou Mansion is too famous.

These monks would rather believe that Shaolin was a place where filth and corruption were hidden and that some scum had emerged that shouldn't have come out, rather than suspect that the "Four Famous Detectives" had found the wrong place.

People like Xuan Nan, Xuan Ji and others who knew the situation sighed deeply, covered their sleeves and said nothing.

However, Xuan Ku obviously had no intention of getting an answer from them, and just gave the answer on his own.

He raised his head and looked at his fellow monks with different expressions, then looked at San Tian, ​​and finally glanced at Tian Jue who was smiling, and said word by word in a sonorous and powerful voice:
“In my opinion, this disaster is nothing more than the result of reputation! To this day, the reputation of the Zen ancestral temple has undoubtedly become a burden to Shaolin, rather than a help.

If it is for the so-called reputation of Shaolin, we can just get this matter clear and transparent. Why bother with a fight?
You might as well imagine, if Master Xu really died at the hands of Uncle Tianjue, or if Uncle Tianjue died on the spot, what would happen to our Shaolin in the future?"

After hearing these words, everyone in Shaolin, from the sky down, looked horrified.

They all realized that the only real reason why the two sides could get along so peacefully now was that the two strongest men did not really fight to the death.

If Xu Xing died in the Shaolin Temple, the two parties, who had no grudges against each other, would immediately develop a blood feud and would fight to the death from then on.

If there are more casualties in the upcoming war, the consequences will be even more disastrous.

After all, among these people, some are powerful leaders or heroes with wide social connections. No matter which one Shaolin offends, it will suffer endless retaliation.

By that time, Shaolin will realize that disaster is imminent and will be annihilated.

In fact, before Xuan Ku, it’s not that no one had thought of this.

But the two words "Shaolin" are so important that these monks unconsciously overlooked this point.

Because they have been bathed in the reputation of the ancestral home of Zen Buddhism and the source of martial arts for too long, these monks who come from Shaolin have a kind of arrogance hidden deep in their hearts.

They always think that only the other party should be concerned about their Shaolin background, and never think that they need to consider other people's background when doing things.

Even though these monks knew that the other party had an extraordinary origin, they still had an inexplicable self-confidence in their hearts. They always felt that the monks would take the reputation of "Shaolin" into consideration and would never dare to offend them.

But today's battle proved that, even without counting other people, just for the ghostly leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, the word "Shaolin" is not worthy of praise at all!
In this case, what reason do they have to indulge in the glory of the past, thinking that as long as they rely on the achievements of their predecessors, they can sit back and relax and not worry about anything?

Thinking of this, many monks who were originally furious showed expressions of shame on their faces, especially Tiandou.

He was a straightforward person. No matter how angry he was, he would still listen to reason. His anger came and went quickly, and he had an indescribable admiration for Xuan Ku, his younger disciple.

After Xuan Kutong finished speaking his heart out, he showed a look of deep emotion, turned around, and bowed deeply to Xu Xing:
"I, Xuan Ku, on behalf of the entire Shaolin, would like to express my gratitude to Master Xu for sparing my life. Even if I have to risk my life, I will ask the abbot to come out and explain Feng'er's life story clearly."

After Xuan Ku finished speaking, Tian Xiang also stood up.

The most senior and prestigious old monk loudly said "good" to cheer for his nephew and to put an end to the matter.

After saying this, he looked at Xu Xing and said sincerely:
"What my nephew and brother meant is what we at Shaolin mean. Sect Leader Xu, no matter what, we at Shaolin will give you an explanation for what happened today.

"Master Nephew is right. Shaolin has indeed been bound by its so-called reputation for too long. The past is gone, so there is no need to relive it. No matter what the reason, right is right and wrong is wrong!"

As Tian Xiang spoke, his eyes moved, and his gaze, as solid as a sword, pierced into the chests of Xuan Nan and Xuan Ji.

The two leaders felt increasingly ashamed and could no longer remain silent.

In fact, Tian Xiang had just come out of the mountain with his two fellow apprentices and when he faced Xu Xing, he had already realized that today's incident was unexpected and there must be some hidden story behind it.

However, at that time, he was still trapped in the four words "Shaolin's reputation". He felt that he had to maintain the dignity of the temple no matter what, so he set up the "Vajra Subduing Demon Circle".

After being hurt a little by Xuan Ku just now, Tian Xiang only thought about the possible dire consequences and realized that something was wrong.

He was certain that this situation must have been deliberately designed by someone in order to put Shaolin in a dilemma, and preferably to take this opportunity to force Shaolin to the opposite side of the righteousness of the world.

When Tian Xiang thought that he almost brought the entire Shaolin Temple into injustice for such a meaningless thing, he felt extremely guilty, and his eyes towards Xuan Nan and Xuan Ji became increasingly cold.

When he was young, his temper was so violent that he was even more violent than heaven. He even dared to challenge Yan Kuangtu, the undisputed "strongest man in the world". It was only in recent years that he studied martial arts and gradually restrained his temper.

But his celestial phenomenon was to put out the fire, not to extinguish the furnace!

Therefore, the power of the celestial phenomenon brought a shock to the two leaders that was even greater than the battle between heaven and earth.

Attracted by the celestial phenomena, many monks realized that the two abbots, as the leaders, must know the inside story and turned their attention to them.

Tian Jue, who had remained silent the entire time, looked at Xuan Ku with an obvious smile of approval, and asked loudly:

"What is your Dharma name, nephew?"

Tian Jue had been in seclusion for decades and had been in mental confusion for many years, so naturally he could not recognize these monks with the surname Xuan.

However, many people know that in the previous generation, in addition to Abbot Tianzheng, there was also a peerless genius with the Buddhist name "Tianjue", who had been taught by the "Five Elders" and was the true foundation of Shaolin Temple, but he had been in seclusion for many years and had not come out for a long time.

Moreover, Tian Jue's disciple Xuan Cheng is also a man of extraordinary talent.

Although many Shaolin monks have never seen Tianjue, almost all of them have dealt with Xuancheng, the eldest brother of the "Xuan generation".

The monks were full of admiration for the talent and ability of this monk who was known as "Twenty-three Wonders" and praised him as "the best in martial arts and talent in the past two hundred years."

If the disciple is like this, the master must not be an ordinary person.

Therefore, Xuan Ku also showed a special respect towards him. The old monk took a step forward, lowered his head and said in a deep voice:
"Nephew Xuanku, greetings to uncle."

Tian Jue looked him over, nodded, and said in a tone that left no room for doubt:

"You are good, very good. When this matter is settled, you can come to be the abbot and take charge of Shaolin."

Hearing these words, everyone in Shaolin Temple was shocked. They all heard an extremely firm will from Tian Jue's calm tone, and even worse, they smelled a strong smell of blood.

It was not until this moment that they recalled that when Tian Jue was once known as the "Nine-Five Divine Lord" and was feared in the martial arts world, he was also a decisive and iron-blooded character.

As leaders, Qiao Feng and others had a deeper understanding of Tian Jue's words and were shocked.

Originally, they were quite satisfied after hearing the assurances from Tian Jue and Tian Xiang, knowing that today's battle had finally produced a result, and they could completely understand the truth of the past.

However, they still didn't expect that Tian Jue was as ruthless as his name suggests. He didn't even ask for the truth and wanted to depose a Shaolin abbot and replace Xuan Ku with him.

Xu Xing also sincerely admired:
"Brother Tian Jue, you are so courageous."

Among all the people present, perhaps he was the only one who could best understand Tianjue's intention. The old monk had clearly been persuaded by Xuan Ku and had the idea of ​​thoroughly rectifying the atmosphere of Shaolin Temple.

Changing the abbot is just the first step.

Next, there will probably be a big change in Shaolin Temple, but Xu Xing is happy to see this change.

If there were more sensible people like Tianjue, Tianxiang and Xuanku, why would he have to go through this?
Tian Jue turned around, looked at Xu Xing, and said calmly:
"Master Xu, I am also a man of my word. Since I promised to give you an explanation, I will definitely do it thoroughly."

At this moment, an extremely deep voice was heard from the completely collapsed mountain road:

"Uncle Master is right. Junior Brother Xuanku is ten times more talented than me. After I die, the position of Shaolin Abbot should belong to him."

Before he could finish his words, a tall, thin figure in gray appeared at the end of the completely collapsed mountain path.

He walked down step by step with steady steps and a solemn expression. It was the Shaolin abbot Xuanci.

Seeing him coming, all the monks turned their heads and bowed eleven times:
"I've met the abbot."

The masters of Xu Xing's side were somewhat shocked when they saw the figure, especially Qiao Feng and the war monk, who had studied in Shaolin and had met the abbot.

They all knew that the old abbot was famous for his "Great Vajra Fist" in the past. His martial arts were very powerful. Even though he was old, his figure was still very strong, even stronger than Xuan Ku.

But now, the old abbot has become so thin and emaciated that it makes people feel sad. It seems that he has suffered some kind of inhuman torture and is about to die.

He walked down step by step, ignoring the Shaolin monks who were looking at him, and instead looked at Qiao Feng and said bluntly:
"Boss Qiao, you are indeed of Khitan descent. Your original surname is Xiao, and you are the son of Xiao Yuanshan, the chief instructor of the personal army of Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Dynasty.

It was I who, along with my fellow martial artists, killed your parents outside Yanmen Pass, brought you back to Shaolin Temple, and adopted you."

After saying this, Xuan Ci ignored the surprised and shocked looks of the crowd and continued talking, explaining the whole story clearly.

In fact, this matter is somewhat related to Su Mengzhen and the Su family.

Su Mengzhen's family was originally a descendant of a prominent family in Yingzhou. In the past, the Liao Kingdom invaded the border and seized Yingzhou in one fell swoop. All the children of the Su family were enslaved by the Liao people. If they disobeyed, they would be cruelly tortured. The huge Su family became increasingly desolate.

At that time, Su Mengzhen's father Su Zhemu was unwilling to suffer such treatment, so he secretly contacted a group of martial arts fellows and wanted to revolt against Liao.

After making some arrangements within the territory of Liao, he escaped from Yingzhou alone and came to Kaifeng, wanting to ask the Song Dynasty to send troops. He was willing to serve as a general and vowed to conquer his homeland.

However, the news eventually spread out, resulting in the entire Su family being exterminated by the Liao emperor. Only Su Mengzhen was rescued by the Fifteenth Master, the junior brother of the Red Sleeves Divine Nun from the Xiaohan Mountain lineage.

In that battle, the Fifteenth Master fought against a group of masters from the Liao Kingdom and displayed his Buddhist martial arts to the fullest. Although he died, his martial arts were feared by everyone in the Liao Kingdom.

From then on, the Liao ruler often sent people into Song territory to learn the martial arts of the Central Plains, especially the Buddhist martial arts.

When it comes to Buddhist martial arts, although the Xiaohan Mountain lineage is profound and mysterious, it is not as famous as the Shaolin Temple.

Therefore, the Liao ruler set his sights on the Shaolin Temple. At that time, although Shaolin martial arts had spread throughout the world, what they really wanted were the two great Shaolin treasures of "Washing the Marrow" and "Yi Jin", as well as the secret of "embracing the world".

He was also well aware that there were many martial arts masters in the Central Plains, especially in the martial arts holy land of Shaolin Temple, so he contacted masters from Western Xia and Dajin to explore Shaolin together.

This news was eventually learned by Murong Bo, a descendant of Northern Yan who was determined to restore his country, through his connections in Western Xia.

He wanted to take this opportunity to disrupt the situation in the martial arts world, so he deliberately came to find the Shaolin abbot Xuan Ci and told him about this.

However, Murong Bo did not tell the true situation of the Three Kingdoms Alliance. Instead, he pushed the blame on Xiao Yuanshan who was going to his father-in-law's house to celebrate his birthday.

Xiao Yuanshan was the chief instructor of the personal army of the Shan tent of the Liao Dynasty. Although he was a Liao people, he learned martial arts from the Han people. He was well aware that there were many martial arts masters in the Central Plains. Once they united, the Liao Kingdom would certainly be unable to resist. Therefore, he had always been committed to the friendly relations between the Song and Liao dynasties.

Murong Bo's plan kills three birds with one stone.

First: He could lure away the tiger from the mountain and lure away Xuan Ci and other masters, giving the coalition forces of the three kingdoms an opportunity to take advantage.

Second: Murong Bo also wanted them to kill Xiao Yuanshan, strike at the pro-Song faction within the Liao Kingdom, create chaos in the world, and create an opportunity for himself to fish in troubled waters.

Third: Murong Bo also wanted to use the power of the Three Kingdoms coalition to break into the Shaolin Sutra Library and seek the secret book of "embracing the world".

Since the Su family's affairs had caused a lot of controversy and the Three Kingdoms did have such a plan, Xuanci believed it to be true.

But he was a mature and prudent man after all, so he was cautious and ordered the Shaolin people to guard the Sutra Library strictly. He also gathered a group of fellow martial artists to go to Yanmen Pass to kill Xiao Yuanshan.

In this battle, Xiao Yuanshan single-handedly fought against more than 30 Central Plains martial arts masters, killing many people and causing blood to flow everywhere.

Although he won the battle with great difficulty in the end, he failed to save his wife, so he jumped off a cliff to commit suicide. Before jumping off the cliff, he left his name on the stone wall, explained the situation, and described his life.

Xuan Ci realized during the battle that this Khitan man was often hesitant when attacking, as if he had no choice, but in the fierceness of war, it was difficult to tell. Now seeing him acting like this, his doubts deepened.

After Xuan Ci left Yanmen Pass, he made extensive inquiries and finally determined that he had killed the wrong person. Filled with regret, Xuan Ci handed Qiao Feng over to Qiao Sanhuai and his wife to be adopted, and took him to Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts.

Wang Jiantong, the former leader of the Beggars' Sect, also participated in the siege of Xiao Yuanshan and regretted it deeply.

Seeing that Qiao Feng had extraordinary aptitude and talent, he made an agreement with Xuan Ci that when the Xiao family's orphan grew up, he would take him in as a disciple to make up for the debt he felt.

Although this was a complete misunderstanding, it was caused by Xuan Ci and killed so many fellow martial artists. Once the truth is revealed, Shaolin Temple will inevitably lose face.

Moreover, the Beggars' Sect was already on the verge of falling apart, and Wang Jiantong came to help Xuan Ci in order to use the power of Shaolin to stabilize the situation.

Now that he saw that this baby had great physique, he wanted to train a successor from scratch to inherit the Beggars' Sect.

Due to these concerns, the survivors kept the matter secret, and Xiao Yuanshan's son Xiao Feng eventually became Qiao Feng.

After telling this story, Xuan Ci's face was calm. Without waiting for anyone to ask, he suddenly raised his hand and patted his forehead.

But just as he made a move, he heard Xu Xing snort coldly.

The hum was not loud, but Xuan Ci's ears suddenly exploded with a loud shout, and his mind was like a bolt of thunder, and his right hand could no longer clap.

After stopping Xuanci's suicide attempt, Xu Xing said coldly:

"You old bald thief, at this point, you still want to die?
Since you had made a promise to Gang Leader Wang, why did you reveal the news to Cai Jing and others?
Is this matter related to King Zuo Wu, or in other words, to the "Twenty-three Great Monks" Xuan Cheng?!"

Hearing Xu Xing say this, the Shaolin monks were in an uproar.

Xuan Ci had not expected that Xu Xing understood so deeply. His whole body trembled, and his face showed an expression of struggle and pain. After a long time, he sighed:
"exactly."

From Xu Xing's roar just now, Xuan Ci had already realized that the Xiaoyao Sect leader's mental power and spiritual realm were simply unfathomable. He could not hide any facts in front of him, so he resigned himself to his fate and told him all the facts.

At that time, Xuan Ci and others went to Yanmen Pass to intercept and kill Xiao Yuanshan, but the coalition forces of Liao, Jin and Western Xia also met a man, who was King Zuo Wu, whose Buddhist name was "Xuan Cheng".

Xuan Cheng fought off the enemy outside the Shaolin Temple and helped Xuan Ci secure his position as the abbot of Shaolin Temple.

In the days that followed, Xuan Cheng also helped Xuan Ci with another thing, and eventually made the Shaolin abbot become his supporter.

Xu Xing couldn't help but laugh when he heard this:
"Old monk, this matter cannot be related to Ye Erniang, right?"

Xuan Ci looked up in horror, glanced at Xu Xing in disbelief, and was greatly shocked in his heart.

Could it be that this Master Xu really has unpredictable powers? !
If not, how could he know such a secret? !

Xu Xing turned his head again and glanced at Xu Zhu, who was confused and still immersed in shock. He felt that everything was connected.
