I am a director in Ark. If I am not banned, I will be considered successful.

“But…Brother Huai’s posture is different from Toad Skill. Not only is the form similar, but even his body functions like a toad. He does not expel waste gas, which can certainly make the next attack more powerful, but it puts a huge burden on himself!”

"This skill seems to have been tampered with. If it is used in an evil way, it will backfire on the person if used for a long time!"

Obviously, good guys have different understandings of martial arts, but bad guys use martial arts in a very similar way, all of which are to exchange load for greater lethality. And the strongest "entering evil" internal skill that the second brother found in Huai Tianpei's mind is undoubtedly this Toad Skill!

"Should we take action?!" At this moment, Zuo Le spoke immediately. He didn't want to care how the Toad Skill was spread. Now that Chen Qi seemed unable to resist, he couldn't help but use the formation to trap Huai Tianpei.

"……Do not."

Zhongyue hesitated for a moment, but Tallulah spoke in time and said to everyone: "Chen Qi hasn't asked for help yet. We can't hinder Chen Qi's plan. He must have a backup plan!"

"That's right. Director Chen Qi still has some cards up his sleeve. He is handling the situation with ease now, so he must have a plan in mind." Zhong Yue nodded. Seeing that Chen Qi still had no intention of using the Tathagata Palm, he patiently waited for Chen Qi's signal.

At this moment, although Chen Qi was surprised by the amazing similarity of history, he soon realized that this was the best opportunity to replicate the famous scene in "Kung Fu"!

He had also witnessed the power of the Toad Skill just now. Although it hurt, Chen Qi was not actually injured. The blood of the year brought by [Lost Years] made the response to most of the damage very small. Huai Tianpei's move only made him feel pain for a while, but it was not unbearable.

Originally, Chen Qi was still thinking about how to fly into the sky and perform the most shocking move of Tathagata Palm. Now it seems that he was worrying too much, and his second brother has already given him the opportunity!

Thinking of this, Chen Qi deliberately used his Qing Kung Fu to lure Huai Tianpei into bumping into him by leaping. However, his second brother, who didn't know Chen Qi's ways, of course guided Huai Tianpei and started to attack Chen Qi!

"boom!"

Facing the charging Huai Tianpei, Chen Qi successfully dodged every collision that he did not want. The two fought for several rounds. Chen Qi kept dodging, seducing, and even revealed a few flaws to Huai Tianpei.

But to outsiders, Chen Qi's dodging was extremely thrilling. He was almost hit by Huai Tianpei several times. Everyone was worried for him, clenched their fists, and sweated profusely.

"Crash." Chen Qi held the clothesline with both hands and tried to kick a few stones to fight back. Suddenly, he found this scene a little familiar, and subconsciously shifted his gaze to below himself.

Sure enough, Huai Tianpei's familiar figure had already appeared under his body, and he exerted all his strength and rushed towards Chen Qi!

"be careful!"

In the screening room, Tallulah was the first to shout out, but at this moment, in everyone's eyes on the screen, Chen Qi was unable to dodge successfully.

His body was hit hard by Huai Tianpei. Under the power of Toad Skill, Huai Tianpei, whose legs were extremely strong, flew dozens of meters with Chen Qi's body before he finally ran out of strength and returned to the ground.

"Chen Qi!!"

However, Chen Qi's figure had already disappeared from all the camera equipment on the screen. Chen Huijie's eyes glared with anger, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, raising Chi Xiao almost immediately, ready to rush out of the projection room!

Those who had the same action as Chen Huijie included Zuo Le, Xing Xiong, Lin Yuxia and everyone else. Even the Emperor and the Rat King who came as helpers this time could not wait any longer and immediately activated the formation to trap the possessed Huai Tianpei!

But just when everyone took a step forward, suddenly, a black sword blocked all of them - and the person holding the sword was Tallulah.

"Little tower?!"

"——Chen Qi said that everyone must not act rashly before he clearly asks for help."

At this moment, Tallulah's voice was trembling. Chen Huijie saw that Tallulah was trembling all over. Seeing such a scene, she was so anxious that tears were about to fall. But she still spoke like this, not only to Chen Huijie and the others, but also to everyone in the crew on the other side of the intercom.

"But it is impossible for him to send out a clear call for help!" Zuo Le shouted immediately, but he saw that Tallulah's black sword suddenly emitted black flames as a threat.

"Do as Chen Qi says! Whoever dares to act rashly - my sword does not recognize anyone!"

Even though her voice began to tremble and tears were already falling, Tallulah still insisted on Chen Qi's decision. She had never doubted him so much before, and had never been so nervous for him, but she chose to believe him every time.

And this time, Tallulah still chose to believe. Even though Chen Qi was completely overwhelmed, she still believed in his decision.

Tallulah's determination stopped all the anxious people at this moment. After Nian and Xi looked at each other, they were planning to sneak away relying on Xi's power. However, Zhongyue suddenly felt something and subconsciously walked out of the screening room.

"Hey?! Brother!"

Nian also looked at Chongyue in surprise. Seeing this, Talullah wanted to stop Chongyue, but Zhongyue waved his hand and knocked the sword out of Talullah's hand.

"That is……"

Zhongyue looked straight up at the sky. At this moment, he could see Chen Qi's figure in the blue sky. He slowly controlled his body and stepped on the eagle in the air.

What made Zhongyue stop was that the white clouds seemed to be outlining a human figure under the sunlight...

That figure, sitting cross-legged in the clouds, seemed to be sitting on a huge lotus platform, wearing a cassock, looking like a monk and a saint, gazing at the world, majestic, powerful, yet compassionate.

Is that... Tathagata?

Zhongyue's pupils trembled violently. He seemed to sense an extremely mysterious state from the clouds, a state that he had only experienced when he was still "complete".

It is no longer the realm of martial arts, but the realm of spiritual enlightenment, which is not possible to achieve through martial arts.

"Martial arts and gods are connected, and gods grant divine power to those who are destined to be with them..."

Zhongyue stared at the Buddha statue in the clouds. Although it was only for a moment, he remembered this scene deeply. Quietly, he felt something in his body seemed to loosen.

That was his martial realm. In a trance, Zhongyue felt the barrier of his realm loosen. In the distance, Chen Qi's figure with his hands clasped together finally began to slowly fall...

Chapter 233: Tathagata Palm breaks the inner demon, the highest realm of martial arts

Although Chen Qi has mastered the Tathagata Palm to the maximum, he has actually always been worried about whether he can successfully perform the Tathagata Palm.

After all, the Terrans didn't know the essence of this martial art, but Chen Qi, as a time traveler, was still somewhat awed by it. This legendary martial art needed to be performed by someone like him who didn't believe in gods or Buddhas, and had never read sutras, so he was also worried that he wasn't "sincere enough".

However, when Chen Qi flew up into the sky just as designed in "Kung Fu" and saw the white clouds in the sky transform into a Buddha statue smiling at him, Chen Qi's mood suddenly calmed down.

He felt a sense of calmness from the inside out, and all his worries were swept away. He didn't even doubt whether he could perform the Tathagata Palm. He seemed to be able to do it at any time as long as he wanted to.

If he really had to describe it, he now had a feeling that he had become a "Buddha".

Chen Qi emptied his mind, put his hands together unconsciously, and let his body slowly fall from the sky...

At the same time, Huai Tianpei, who was possessed by his second brother on the ground, also felt something was wrong... There seemed to be something in the sky, slowly approaching.

"Hikogo, this is..."

"Without a doubt, we will soon see the martial art called Tathagata Palm."

And now, Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue in front of the camera even forgot their lines, both of them stared up at the sky, and at this moment, except for them, everyone in the screening room headed by Zhong Yue couldn't help but walk out of the screening room to witness the palm technique falling from the sky.

At this moment, Kosice suddenly noticed something. Seeing Chen Qi falling from the sky and starting to glow with fire, he suddenly felt a violent tremor and fear from his soul! He immediately said to Tallulah:

"Stupid daughter! Get away if you don't want to die!"

"Everyone! Get away from the set to a safe distance immediately!"

After Kosice's reminder, Tallulah came to her senses immediately and ordered all the camera crews on the set to leave the scene with their equipment immediately to prevent them from being affected.

However, Tallulah's worries were completely unnecessary. The target of Tathagata Palm had been determined. This move was extremely powerful, but Chen Qi would naturally restrain himself. As long as he controlled it to the level that could suppress Huai Tianpei, there was no need to go full throttle.

Otherwise, with the strong boost brought by Chen Qi's current "Blood of the Year", Tathagata's Palm might be able to flatten half of the Dragon Gate - and the premise is that it's just one move. If they really want to fight, Chen Qi won't be done with just one move.

The second brother, who had been accurately locked, could feel the strong pressure from the sky even though he was in Huai Tianpei's body! And that pressure became stronger and stronger as Chen Qi got closer and closer to him!

"No! I-How is it possible?!"

The second elder brother was extremely incredulous about his current situation. He was one of the “Years Old”, an existence born to stand at the pinnacle of the race on the Terra continent. Even if he was only one of the twelve fragments, who could suppress him with absolute power?

Even Dayan couldn't do that. They had taken advantage of Sui's weakness to stab him in the back instead of engaging him head-on. As the second oldest brother among the twelve fragments, his strength was definitely at the top among his brothers and sisters, and he was the best among the behemoths.

But now, he was being suppressed? His soul was in fear? How could it be possible?!

"How can it be!!"

The second brother tried desperately to resist, and even forgot to guide Huai Tianpei, and directly wanted to control Huai Tianpei's body to resist this force! However, his constantly trembling residual soul now also felt the resistance from Huai Tianpei's will. Under the double obstacles, the second brother's control over this body was also reduced a lot.

The mental resistance and the trembling of the soul made it impossible for the second brother to control Huai Tianpei's body to activate the Toad Skill - how could a poisonous creature on earth compete with Buddha?

Finally, Chen Qi in mid-air was finally reborn from the flames when he was about to land. He calmly stretched out one of his hands and pointed it at his second brother on the ground.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

"boom!!"

The shock was so strong that there was no way to resist, and even raising his head was extremely difficult. Along with the roar and wails of his second brother coming from Huai Tianpei's mouth, the ground beneath Huai Tianpei suddenly changed violently!

A huge palm print, like a mountain, pressed the entire ground down! And Huai Tianpei, who was in the palm position, was also pressed down like a mountain, with his whole body prostrated on the ground, and was suppressed without any ability to fight back.

"Surrender!"

Finally, accompanied by the obvious voice of begging for mercy, just before his palm power was about to completely shatter the second brother's remaining soul, Chen Qi in mid-air withdrew his power in time, giving the other party a chance as if mercifully.

At this moment, the shirt on Chen Qi's body that fell to the side had been burned up in the flames, revealing his upper body that was not exaggerated but quite beautiful and strong. He was also exerting force in the one-handed palm-standing posture that was very familiar to all the Yan people present.

For a moment, everything was so quiet, as if no one had recovered from the power of the "Tathagata Palm". Only Huai Tianpei, who was possessed by his second brother, made a small move again...

He slowly took out the hidden weapon from his back. Originally, the hidden weapon was just a prop, just like the one Huai Tian Pei had used on Wei Yanwu and his wife. But under the guidance of his second brother, the hidden weapon had now become a real weapon that could kill people.

After a while, the second brother controlled Huai Tianpei and rushed towards Chen Qi with a hidden weapon in hand. Zhongyue noticed all this, but he did not stop it. Instead, he looked at Huai Tianpei with pity and sadness, and saw the second brother who was trapped in paranoia in his eyes...

"With my second brother's intelligence, he must understand that he can't succeed... He has fallen into paranoia and his inner demons have been born."

"Director Chen Qi...blow it away."

Zhongyue thought so in his heart, and completely lost his patience with his brother. As expected, Chen Qi changed his gesture towards his second brother who rushed over, and once again calmly faced him with his palm.

The second move of Tathagata Palm: Buddha asks Galan.

"what!"

"Boom!!"

The second brother suddenly felt an extremely strong palm energy coming towards him again, and his residual soul felt the huge threat again, but the next moment, his residual soul still did not break.

Instead, accompanied by a loud bang, a huge handprint suddenly appeared in the Rat Village behind him! The handprint penetrated the entire building, but it seemed easier than punching through a piece of paper.

At this moment, everyone's voice fell silent. Wei Yanwu and his wife, as well as everyone else, stared at the ruins of the Rat Village in amazement... It's not like they haven't seen moves more powerful than this, but what shocked them even more was the calmness in Chen Qi's every move.

This might just be a very ordinary palm strike, but it could actually produce such a powerful force... Such destructive power is truly terrifying...

And now, Huai Tianpei's body was frozen in place, facing the palm only a few inches away from his head, his eyes twitching constantly... In his pupils, the black energy symbolizing his second brother curled up into a ball, and now his remaining soul no longer dared to make any movement.

Because he knew that if he made even the slightest movement, his remaining soul would be destroyed by Chen Qi in an instant. He was merciful, but he was not really unable to do it... This palm was the final warning.

When neither Huai Tianpei nor the second brother dared to make any extra moves, Chen Qi slowly walked forward, flicked his fingers lightly, and pulled out the golden needle of the lotus hidden weapon in Huai Tianpei's hand.

"Hua." Chen Qi took the hidden weapon and let the golden lotus slowly bloom. Chen Qi exerted a little force with both hands, and the golden lotus, which was originally a hidden weapon to harm people, turned into the simplest toy at this moment and slowly flew away with the wind.

Hidden weapons that used to hurt people have now become harmless toys, just like martial arts, which are certainly a skill to kill people, but as long as the person using martial arts has a kind heart, martial arts will become a harmless, even a just skill.

And now, Huai Tianpei finally came back to his senses. His voice and that of his second brother overlapped at this moment, and he asked Chen Qi from behind:

"——What kind of palm technique is this?"

However, when Chen Qi was asked this question, facing Huai Tianpei, who had practiced martial arts for his entire life, and his second brother who had taken advantage of his inner demons in his mind, he said without any hesitation:

"You want to learn? I'll teach you."

The indifferent voice fell, but the moment it fell into Huai Tianpei's ears, his face flashed with disbelief, but soon, his expression slowly changed from shock to enlightenment, but after enlightenment, he revealed sadness...

A line of clear tears fell from the eyes of this man who had practiced martial arts all his life. Quietly, the martial arts barrier that had blocked his heart for so long finally shattered like glass.

Huai Tianpei's lifelong pursuit is to gather all the martial arts in the world in one person, to surpass one peak after another, and to break one boundary after another. He challenges Chong Yue just to prove that everything he has done is worth it. He can use all the martial arts he has learned to integrate them, and thus challenge the gods with his mortal body!

However, Chen Qi's words reached a higher level... Peerless martial arts should not be passed on to outsiders, which is the unspoken rule of all martial artists. However, he did not mind passing on his most profound martial arts to the world... even to his enemies.

If we say that Huai Tianpei's approach was to combine all the martial arts into one and allow himself to challenge the gods.

So, what Chen Qi will do is to spread his martial arts to the world, so that all the good people in the world will have the opportunity to challenge the gods.

The master's demeanor immediately distinguished the superior from the inferior. The barriers and demons that had troubled Huai Tianpei throughout his life were completely dissolved at this moment, making him suddenly enlightened.

Huai Tianpei cried not because he was heartbroken by Chen Qi's murder, but because of joy and regret... The state that had troubled him for so long and stagnated for so long was actually so simple, but he had spent so much time without realizing it.

A wisp of black air slowly dissipated from Huai Tianpei's body... proving that his inner demon had been broken at this moment. The second brother had completely lost any means and possessed Huai Tianpei's body.

The next moment, Huai Tianpei burst into tears, but he still insisted on bowing to Chen Qi, bowing deeply, and said in a very convinced voice:

“——I lost.”

Yes, he lost, and he lost sincerely. Whether it was martial arts or martial ethics, Huai Tianpei was convinced and prostrated.

At this moment, it was not only Huai Tianpei who bowed to Chen Qi. Elsewhere, all the martial artists gathered at Longmen, led by Zhongyue, from the Rat King to Huai Hu, all bowed to Chen Qi, lowered their proud heads, and said with sincere admiration:

"I've learned a lesson."

"...The path of martial arts is not about killing, but about inheritance and humility. However, how many years will it take for people to comprehend this realm?"

"Return to the origin, comprehend all the martial arts in the world, and never forget the original intention of practicing martial arts, which is to protect everything you want to protect."

Zhong Yue also bowed to Chen Qi, then closed his eyes and savored everything that was happening before him. His martial arts realm, which had also been stagnant for a long time, seemed to have loosened up a little.

When one reaches a realm like Chongyue, every step of the breakthrough in martial arts is as difficult as ascending to heaven, but now, just by expressing his feelings, he feels the long-lost touch.

Chongyue can now say that his trip was worthwhile. He, who can be said to be the master of Da Yan's martial arts, now sees a friend of the same realm as him, making a contribution to the inheritance of martial arts that no one can replicate.

"The world is different, things are different, people have changed... the scenery is also changing."

"But I hope that everyone in the world will remain unchanged with their hearts set on doing good."
