Martial Arts: I am in the Ming Cult and I am building a dynasty

The vast aura continued to evaporate, faintly covering the entire area of ​​the Liangchan Temple, forming a killing field.

Finally, a compassionate Buddhist chant was heard again.

But the vast realm shattered in an instant, and the countless fragments of light were all transferred into a dense and continuous Buddha halo.

Deng Tai'a was blasted hundreds of feet away by Longshu Monk's final blow. His clothes were disheveled, his face was pale, and there was a bright red blood stain at the corner of his mouth.

"Nagarjuna, Nagarjuna, it is truly extraordinary."

In this final attack, Deng Tai'a was ultimately defeated. He was unable to break the Vajra Realm that Longshu Monk had condensed over the past hundred years. He was even seriously injured in Longshu Monk's counterattack.

But Deng Tai'a also won.

Although Deng Tai'a failed to break the Vajra Realm of Nagarjuna, he made Nagarjuna exhaust the last drop of his life energy, and he was doomed to die.

On the ground, the Vajra Dharma Realm was circulating, and there were Buddha halos hanging behind Nagarjuna's head like a halo of merit.

And in the Buddha's halo, even the broken pieces of Gengjin light cut out by Deng Tai'a were transformed by Longshu monk's Buddha heart, and they coiled around his body like a spirit snake, extremely obedient.

In a sense, Nagarjuna attained Buddhahood in this last moment of his life.

If Nagarjuna had his way, he could even take this opportunity to break free from the shackles of his physical body and transform himself into a true immortal Buddha on earth, then ascend to heaven and become a Buddha.

But what is extremely surprising is that

The monk Nagarjuna clearly had the opportunity to attain nirvana and become a Buddha, but he did not take any action. Instead, at the last moment of his life, he smiled like Galan who picked up a flower and smiled, with a smile full of wisdom. Then he stretched out his hand and pushed, merging the infinite Buddha halo into the relic, which floated in front of Deng Tai'a.

"Namo Amitabha!"

As the last Buddhist chant was sounded, the monk Nagarjuna passed away on the spot with a compassionate smile, maintaining the posture of holding a seal with one hand and pushing the palm with the other.

And at the moment when Nagarjuna passed away, countless flowers, plants and trees in the Liangchan Temple, which was originally in ruins, began to grow wildly, and bowed down to Nagarjuna as if they were worshiping Buddha.

After paying respect to Nagarjuna, the flowers, plants and trees seemed to have spirituality and gave birth to a little bit of Buddhist charm.

Chapter 305: Death of the Sweeping Monk

Nagarjuna had a clear opportunity to become a Buddha, but he gave it up and chose to understand himself and return to nirvana.

But the monk Nagarjuna also left the last glimmer of hope for the Liangchan Temple and even for the Buddhist community in the Song Dynasty.

The relic that Nagarjuna pushed to Deng Tai'a contained Nagarjuna's life inheritance, cultivation, insights, and even the final infinite Buddha nature.

It can be said that as long as one obtains this relic, one can create another Nagarjuna in ten years at most.

Likewise, this relic is enough to allow any martial saint to enter the realm of immortals on earth.

This great gift is Nagarjuna’s atonement and also his plea.

Deng Tai'a took a look at the flowers, plants and trees all over the mountains with a hint of Buddhist charm, and knew that this place might become the last Buddhist holy land of the Song Dynasty in the future.

"Alas, I have lost another rival."

Deng Tai'a sighed and waved his hand, creating a crack in the void at the place where Nagarjuna monk passed away, and buried Nagarjuna monk in it.

Deng Tai'a did not have the ability to open up a cave.

But the monk Nagarjuna only practiced the Diamond Sutra throughout his life. In terms of his physical body alone, he is no worse than the former Emperor Taizu of Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin. Even if he is buried in the void, his bones will not decay, and he can even add another layer of heritage to these two Zen temples.

After burying the monk Nagarjuna, Deng Tai'a looked at Dugu Qiubai and the Sweeping Monk.

It was different from the earth-shaking battle between Deng Tai'a and Longshu.

Dugu Qiubai and the Sweeping Monk are almost equally matched in terms of skills, cultivation, and character.

The two men fought each other, from a clash of cultivation at the beginning to a clash of skills later on.

Until the end, neither of them could do anything to the other, and they were caught in the most dangerous battle of minds.

The only two people I saw were Dugu Qiubai and the Sweeping Monk.

One of them holds the sword gesture motionlessly, while the other sits holding the Buddha seal.

But in the void around these two wooden men, there was a layer of spiritual glow, which sometimes turned into the sword light of immortality and sometimes turned into the shadow of Buddha.

The way of the heart sword, and the way of salvation.

Both of these martial arts paths can be considered as spiritual paths, but neither is purely spiritual.

"Damn, another troublesome one."

After seeing this scene, Deng Tai'a was a little confused for a moment.

If it were any other form of fighting, Deng Tai'a, with his advantage of being older and having a higher level of cultivation, could have helped Dugu Qiubai and killed the Sweeping Monk as soon as possible.

But in this kind of battle of mind, spirit and martial arts, no matter how high Deng Tai'a's cultivation is, he cannot get involved.

But, Dugu Qiubai is Yang Zhao’s great uncle.

If some messed up corpses were to turn up, Deng Tai'a wouldn't know how to face Yang Zhao after returning to Xiangyang City. He would probably be trapped by Yang Zhao for the rest of his life and become a tool under his command.

Deng Tai'a looked depressed, but there was nothing he could do but stay where he was.

But what made Deng Tai'a happy was.

After two hours of competition, cracks began to spread on the body of the Sweeping Monk, like porcelain that could break at any time.

This shows that in the battle of minds between the two, Dugu Qiubai has gained the upper hand.

Another half hour passed.

Dugu Qiubai's face became paler and paler, and blood began to ooze from all his orifices.

However, Deng Tai'a could clearly sense that there was another edge rising in Dugu Qiubai's body, weak, but with endless potential.

Another abnormality. Could it be that the Yang family bloodline is really that awesome?

For a moment, Deng Tai'a felt a little self-doubtful.

Not to mention Yang Zhao, who was only in his early twenties but had already reached the peak level of celestial being. His Taoism was so profound and pure that even Deng Tai'a was shocked at the sight of him.

It can be said that Yang Zhao may be far inferior to Deng Tai'a in terms of combat power and cultivation.

But in terms of martial arts, foundation, and path, he was only a little bit behind Deng Tai'a in terms of time and effort. In fact, his path was so long and broad that Deng Tai'a felt ashamed of himself.

And now Dugu Qiubai, who is less than a hundred years old, is also practicing swordsmanship.

As long as he can survive this battle, Dugu Qiubai's level will be comparable to Deng Tai'a. It won't be long before he can become like Ling Donglai, Li Chungang and Wang Xianzhi.

This made Deng Tai'a very shocked.

In terms of age alone, Deng Tai'a was nearly 50 years older than Dugu Qiubai.

Of course, Deng Tai'a himself was a man of top-notch qualifications, talents, and character. It was just that he encountered some accidents decades ago and was restricted by the kindness of the Northern Liang Princess Wu Su.

Now that the cause and effect between Deng Tai'a and Beiliang has been resolved and all the shackles on him have been removed, he has entered a period of rapid progress with accumulated strength for a great outcome, and is no worse than Dugu Qiubai.

But even so, Deng Tai'a still felt that the world was fading away.

hum!

Just when Deng Tai'a was daydreaming, he saw a spiritual peak appear between Dugu Qiubai and the Sweeping Monk, as if it were a substance.

At the extreme point of the mind, a faint and bright sword light of the mind slowly pierced out from it.

click!

After the sword of the mind with infinite brilliance was completely freed, Dugu Qiubai suddenly opened his eyes, and in his pupils, there was a scene of the creation of the world.

At the same time, a tiny crack appeared between the eyebrows of the sweeping monk, and drops of golden blood dripped out.

Not long after, Dugu Qiubai stood up and said with a threatening look on his face, "Sweeping Monk, I have been in the world for more than a hundred years, and I have never been able to find an enemy. You are the one who is closest to defeating me."

"But unfortunately, you still lost in the end. Alas, this is really lonely and embarrassing."

Accompanied by Dugu Qiubai's words.

The sweeping monk also opened his eyes, which were filled with desolation, but he finally smiled and said, "My name is Li Yu, and I should bury him with the rites of an emperor."

After saying this, the sweeping monk passed away suddenly, leaving behind only an exquisite jade pendant that flickered with a faint Buddhist light.

On the jade pendant, the words "Tang" and "Wen" were written on the front, and the word "Yu" was written on the back.

Upon seeing this, Dugu Qiubai stopped pretending, stretched out his hand and sucked the jade pendant into his hand, then tore a hill in half with his fingers, and countless sword lights emerged. In just half an hour, he actually opened up a burial ground like an imperial palace under the hill.

"As the last monarch of Southern Tang, you should indeed be buried with imperial rites. I hope you will be happy after your death."

Bury the sweeping monk in the underground palace.

Dugu Qiubai used his boundless sword energy to completely blast the hill into pieces, turning it into a natural tomb and sealing it completely. Only then could he not hold back and spit out a mouthful of blood.

How could Dugu Qiubai be unaffected after he killed an equally powerful enemy?

When Deng Tai'a saw this scene, he sneered and said, "Oh, this is really lonely and embarrassing!"

Dugu Qiubai: "..."

Damn it, can people still pretend to be cool?

Chapter 306: Tongwen Jade Token and Vajra Relics

On the battlefield or in the martial arts world, when it comes to actual combat, which weapon is the most powerful?

Without a doubt, it is heavy weapons such as guns, spears, halberds, and hammers.

But why do millions of people in this world like to use swords the most? It’s because they look handsome and cool.

Whether it is Dugu Qiubai or Deng Tai'a.

Countless swordsmen in Kyushu are young people who seek martial arts. If they do not have endless ambitions to show off, it would be difficult for them to achieve anything in the way of the sword.

It’s just that many people, after that age, stop pretending to be so arrogant and instead focus on seeking the pinnacle of martial arts and kendo.

Dugu Qiubai has more personality and becomes more pretentious as he gets older.

Faking death, leaving behind sword tombs, leaving behind secret books, inheritance, and precious swords; in short, Dugu Qiubai has done everything a swordsman can do to show off.

But Deng Tai'a's last word "Ha" made Dugu Qiubai break down his defense.

This damn Deng Tai'a is so inhuman.

We are all swordsmen, so how could I not know what you are thinking?

You, Deng Tai'a, are over a hundred years old. Haven't you previously refined twelve flying swords and created the method of borrowing swords from thousands of miles away? Isn't this just showing off?

Okay, you are old, you are noble and you are amazing.

Don't let me see you showing off next time, this matter is not over yet.

The two top sword masters both looked unhappy with each other. After half a day, they returned to Xiangyang City in a bad mood.

"I'll go first."

"I go first!"

"Oh, old man Deng, this is my nephew's grandson's territory."

"so what……"

When Yang Zhao noticed Deng Tai'a and Dugu Qiubai's arrival, he opened the door and saw Deng Tai'a and Dugu Qiubai, who were crowding at the door like old children.

This made Yang Zhao a little stunned and confused.

The door of my study, although not big enough for a giant to enter or exit, is at least several feet high and can accommodate several people entering at the same time.

The entrance is so big, it’s hard to squeeze in.

Just when Yang Zhao was stunned.

Dugu Qiubai spoke first, saying, "My dear nephew, I, your uncle, have already annihilated the two Zen temples and killed the former Southern Tang emperor and the Shaolin monk today. This is the Tongwen order left by Li Yu. It contains Li Yu's lifelong inheritance and enlightenment, and can be used to command the descendants of the Southern Tang."

As he spoke, Dugu Qiubai took out an exquisite jade pendant that emitted a faint Buddhist light and stuffed it into Yang Zhao's hand without saying anything.

After saying this, Dugu Qiubai looked at Deng Tai'a arrogantly and was quite proud of himself.

Deng Tai'a sneered and said, "When did Liangchan Temple become the residence of the Shaolin monks? Yang Zhao, Liangchan Temple was annihilated by me. Although the monk Longshu had entered the realm of arhat, he was still killed by my sword. This is the Vajra relic left by the monk Longshu."

"This relic not only contains Nagarjuna's martial arts insights and inheritance, but also contains the infinite energy that Nagarjuna has cultivated through practicing the Diamond Sutra for more than 100 years. It can help people enter the realm of immortals on earth."

After saying this, Deng Tai'a also stuffed the relic into Yang Zhao's hand without further ado.

It was very unexpected that I got two treasures.

But just when Yang Zhao was confused, Dugu Qiubai and Deng Tai'a started arguing again.
