Starting from becoming a god, I travel through the heavens.

Time flies, spring has come and winter has come three times.

Zhao Sheng studied Buddhism diligently in a small temple for three years. During those three years, he did not practice any martial arts, but focused on studying Buddhism, cultivating himself, and remaining undisturbed.

But his boxing skills not only did not decline, but became even more profound, with a faint sense of perfect harmony. Three years of solitary meditation washed away his indifference to human life, as if he had returned to the state before he killed people.

Over three years, Zhao Sheng outlived the old lama, who had passed away two years earlier, having made all the necessary arrangements as he sensed his impending death.

Originally, Zhao Sheng was intended to serve as a lama in a small temple, since Xiao Tong was too young and lacked the composure to be a lama.

However, Zhao Sheng did not agree, but promised to take care of the child for two years. After two years, he would leave the small temple and leave the Tibetan region. He would not stay in the Tibetan region for too long. He chose to come to the Tibetan region to practice Buddhism purely to suppress his own murderous nature.

He studied Buddhism for a year and then took care of the child for two years; it was as if he was repaying his karmic debt. The old lama teaching him Buddhism was the cause, and his taking care of the child was the effect.

The old lama nodded with satisfaction upon receiving the answer, and finally sat on the meditation cushion and passed away peacefully. The child neither cried nor laughed that day, as if he had subdued his desires, but it was a calm before extreme sorrow.

Although the child is young, he has developed a vague understanding of birth, old age, sickness, and death through his practice of Buddhism.

After the old lama left, the little boy lost his former naivety and devoted himself to practicing Buddhism, sitting in meditation to comprehend Buddhist scriptures. Occasionally, Zhao Sheng would explain to him the parts he didn't understand.

Two years ago, Zhao Sheng had almost finished studying the Buddhist teachings of the old lama. Apart from some more profound Buddhist scriptures that the old lama had not taught, he could be considered a lama who had also studied Buddhist scriptures diligently.

This is also the most important reason why the old lama wanted him to serve as the lama of the small temple.

"Sheng-ge'er." The boy opened his eyes, no longer trying to comprehend the Buddhist scriptures, and looked at the person sitting upright on the futon beside him.

Three years have passed and he has grown up to be twelve years old. Today is the day that Sheng Ge'er promised to take him to a big temple for further study.

If he wants to become a lama in this small temple, he needs to go to a large temple for further study, and then return to inherit this small temple after he has completed his studies.

"Okay, let's go." Zhao Sheng opened his eyes, his gaze clear and bright. He reached out and patted the child's head, then stood up and walked outside. The child quickly stood up and followed.

The child's name is Qin She. He was an abandoned baby and was raised by an elderly lama. His name was also given to him by the lama. His surname was a self-translated surname, following the common surnames of Chinese people.

The name is derived from the Tibetan Buddhist eight-character mantra "She," which means to let go of afflictions and attachments such as greed, anger, and ignorance, to let go of the bad, and to welcome a bright future.

Zhao Sheng's target is the Gelug school, which is the largest branch of Tibetan Buddhism, with a huge number of members and influence in Tibet.

For Qin She, studying the Gelug school was the best choice, especially for a child with no one to rely on.

After Zhao Sheng escorted Qin She to a Gelugpa academy, it gradually got dark. He returned to the small temple, and he would leave Tibet after tonight.

In three years, he completed the path of Hua Jin (化劲), and was only one step away from Dan Jin (丹劲). Once he broke through that barrier, it would be the beginning of his extraordinary journey.

Dan Jin is the most significant watershed in Chinese martial arts. Although Ming Jin, An Jin, and Hua Jin before Dan Jin are powerful, they are ultimately not truly extraordinary and cannot accomplish all sorts of incredible feats.

The various abilities derived from Dan Jin make it extremely difficult to kill someone unless they are mowed down by a large-caliber machine gun. They can even sense in advance if the enemy has malicious intent.

"Hmm? Someone's coming." Zhao Sheng sensed something, stood up and walked out of the small temple. Even though it was dark and his vision was completely obscured, he could still see the distant scenery clearly.

A car was speeding towards them, its two headlights shining brightly in the darkness. Behind it, several cars were rear-ending each other, and the sounds of the collisions could be heard even from a distance.

"Those who come with ill intentions will not come with good intentions!" Zhao Sheng sighed. For three years, no trouble had come to his door, but just as he was about to leave, trouble chose to come knocking.

The next moment, his eyes changed, and he strode forward, disappearing into the night.

"Uncle Wu, the cars behind us are catching up, what should we do?" The girl in the passenger seat kept looking back, seeing several SUVs closely following behind.

Moreover, they kept hitting the back of the car, filling her with fear and dread.

The middle-aged man, Uncle Wu, was also a little anxious. Who would have thought that taking the young lady out for a trip would lead to encountering these kidnappers?

Now all he could do was comfort his mistress, "Don't be afraid, miss. This car has been reinforced. The only way to stop us is to overturn it."

"Hey, you little chicks, stop the car up ahead, or don't blame us for shooting." A man's voice came from the car behind, accompanied by his arrogant, lewd laughter.

The girl turned pale upon hearing this, but Uncle Wu remained unfazed and continued to slam on the gas. Stop the car? Only an idiot would stop. If they didn't, there would still be a glimmer of hope. They actually listened to those idiots behind them.

Their lives are truly not in their own hands. Even the young lady could be toyed with to death by them. He has been through so much in his life, how could he not understand such a path?

Those idiots behind her are totally trying to break down their young lady's defenses!

"Miss, don't listen to them. If we really stop the car, we'll really die. Who knows what they'll do to you then? The master instructed us to protect you when we left," Uncle Wu reassured her.

"I understand, oh! Uncle Wu, watch out, there's someone ahead." The girl was about to reply when she caught a glimpse of someone in the lamplight—a monk.

Uncle Wu was driving too fast and didn't have time to react, watching helplessly as the car crashed into him. At that speed, even a diamond would be dented, let alone a person.

boom!

Zhao Sheng's eyelids drooped, his skin membranes were taut, his muscles and bones trembled, and his spine was surging with power. His whole body was united with unprecedented strength, and his hands were like steel bars. He pressed down hard on the front of the car and brought it to a stop.

Even if the wheels keep moving forward, it won't budge an inch!

The scene stunned the two, but Uncle Wu reacted quickly, immediately stepping on the brakes and hurriedly getting out of the car. The girl also realized what was happening and got out of the car as well.

"Master, are you alright?" Uncle Wu looked at the young monk in front of him, recalling what had just happened, and thought to himself, "I've met a master."

Is it even possible for a human to stop a vehicle traveling at 300 mph? How much force would that require?!

But the young monk in front of us did it; he's practically a god!

"Master, my name is Li Wan, and I am the daughter of the Li family in Guangdong Province. Can you please save us? We will definitely reward you handsomely afterward. We have already called the police on our way here."

Li Wan's face was still deathly pale. She pleaded with the young master in front of her, as if she were grasping at straws in her desperation. She still had a long life ahead of her and many things she hadn't done. She didn't want to die so soon!

Just as Uncle Wu said, once she falls into those people's hands, even if she doesn't die, her life is basically over!

Swish swish! ! !

Several SUVs circled around and finally stopped, from which six masked men got out, each carrying a handgun.

The masked man at the head of the group scanned the three, his gaze finally settling on Li Wan. His tone was mocking, "Why isn't the Li family's young lady running away? Are you planning to surrender obediently?"

Although he didn't know why there was an extra monk, he only wanted Li Wan from the Li family. The rest of the people were of no use to him and would not affect his subsequent plans.

The girl's face grew even paler, and she trembled as she hid behind Uncle Wu.

Uncle Wu glanced at the six men before him, looked at the guns in their hands, sighed softly, and said, "How much did they offer? Our Li family is willing to pay ten times that price."

"Hahaha!!" The leading man laughed, glancing at Li Wan hiding behind Uncle Wu. "That person promised three million plus three days of Miss Li's services. Do you think you can afford that price?"

"Boss, when you're done playing with it, can we have some too? I've never tasted anything this good before."

"Of course, since I'm eating meat, my brothers should eat meat too! Don't worry, they'll line up one by one after me."

"What about the other two, boss?"

"Kill them."

"Boss, how about we tie them up, and then...hehe? That sounds exciting for the brothers!"

"You've got some tricks up your sleeve, buddy. Let's do it this way then."

"..."

Li Wan felt colder and colder as she listened, as if she had fallen into a freezing cave. She seemed to have made up her mind that since she couldn't escape, she might as well just kill herself to avoid being tortured by the six men while she was alive.

Uncle Wu was indignant. This was a blatant humiliation of the young lady, and also of him. If the other party hadn't had a gun, how could he have been so pathetic?!

Zhao Sheng frowned, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw Li Wan trying to run into the car. Helplessly, he reached out and placed his hand on her head, stopping her from committing suicide. His voice was calm but reassuring, "Don't worry."

"Oh, you want to commit suicide? Even if you become a corpse, we won't mind, haha!! Good job, little monk. We'll let you go after we're done. Go and tie them up." The leader of the men said.

The two men behind him tucked their pistols into their waistbands, then chuckled wickedly as they stepped forward to begin tying up Zhao Sheng and Uncle Wu with ropes.

Boom! !

But the next moment, Zhao Sheng moved like a tiger lying in wait, his fist suddenly striking the two men's throats. With two "crack" sounds, the two men's spines broke, and their bodies went limp and collapsed to the ground.

died!

He touched the ground with his toes, his body darting out like lightning. He unleashed four more punches like rain, three of which shattered the throat and broke the spine, while the last punch lightly struck the leader's chest, breaking several ribs and sending him flying.

Three people died, and the leader was still alive, but he was basically beyond saving. "The rest are up to you." These were Zhao Sheng's words.

"Thank you very much, Master. We will repay you handsomely when we get back," Uncle Wu said, then walked to the leader of the group. "Who is that person you're talking about? Did someone else from the Li family send you?"

"Heh heh!! I... I never expected to run into a master. My defeat was well-deserved. You... you want... you want to know... but I... I'll not let you... have your way, haha... heh heh!!"

The leading man did not answer Uncle Wu's question. His eyes were unfocused. Even though he knew what was going to happen, he did not reveal his employer. He even let out a mocking laugh before finally dying.
