"The strongest Guang Cheng is just a decoy; the real killer move lies in your Thunder Technique."
Manjusri's eyes glead with golden light, his gaze falling onto the majestic shadow behind Daoist Guang Yuan, "The Dao Artifact of Yuqing True King, if it hits, even I would be injured."
As a major sect of the current era, Yuxu Temple surely has a Second Grade Daoist Artifact, but because it was rarely displayed in the past, others subconsciously overlooked this point when ntioning Yuxu Temple.
Because Daoist Guang Cheng himself was focused on refining the Slaying Immortal Sword, before fully mastering the Killing Sword, he didn't have the extra heart power to pay attention to other Dao Artifacts, and using the Slaying Immortal Sword required full concentration, with repercussions afterward. Even with this Second Grade Daoist Artifact on him, it would be difficult to effectively wield.
In contrast, Daoist Guang Yuan, after achieving third grade, rarely descended the mountain, so he had the ti and heart power to communicate with the Second Grade Daoist Artifact and use it.
Therefore, this ti's assassination, Daoist Guang Yuan was the true trump card.
Unfortunately, even so, it still did not succeed.
"I have gathered the Maitreya Dharma-Aspect of the Lifeless Buddha Friend, strengthened the Yi Dao Technique, even if Guang Cheng painstakingly conceals it, your killer move can't escape my detection."
Manjusri laughed lightly while wielding the sword, True Sun Fire flowed on the blade. The Wisdom Sword previously damaged by the Slaying Immortal Sword had unexpectedly recovered, with the sword now possessing Yang Qi like the midday sun, a faint bird-shaped shadow erged on the sword.
The Jiang family's Three-legged Golden Crow is fake, but possessing the Golden Crow Dao Fruit is real.
And now, this Golden Crow Dao Fruit resides within the Wisdom Sword.
It is precisely because it contains the Golden Crow Dao Fruit that Manjusri can disturb the Yin and Yang with the sword, suppress the extinguishing power of the Yin Thunder, and render this killer move null.
And Manjusri, by virtue of his ability to integrate with the Great Sun Tathagata Dharma Image, has ard himself to the teeth with this Third Grade Dao Artifact.
'This...'
Shen Hou, who had retreated dozens of miles, seeing this scene, felt a veil of darkness over his eyes, knowing things were amiss, 'I intended to use ill fortune to break Manjusri's Qi Shu; why is it that Manjusri isn't failing, and instead, disaster is befalling our side?'
Is this fate playing its tricks?
The ominous feeling in his heart grew stronger, Shen Hou glanced sideways at Guangli beside him, and at the monks being shielded in retreat.
A third-grade battle is difficult for Shen Hou to intervene in, but scheming against a fourth-grade and attempting to cut off Manjusri and others' support is still possible. Fewer monks an less incense, it might not drastically weaken Manjusri and Tan Wuwei, but it would have so effect.
At this thought, the God-beating Whip suddenly lashed at Guangli Bodhisattva, murderous intent surged abruptly.
"Clang!"
The Wooden Whip clashed with the Dragon Spear, Shen Hou's eyes revealed a look of astonishnt as he locked eyes with Guangli Bodhisattva.
Imdiately following was an outburst of ominous foreboding.
'Was this too foreseen by you?'
Shen Hou's sense of foreboding had turned to despair.
Despite his careful precautions, not leaving a trace of flaw, he was still anticipated by Tan Wuwei, who had arranged Guangli Bodhisattva's vigilance. The experiences summarized before, the assessnt of Reverse Knowledge of the Future Divine Skill, now seed all erroneous— all were illusions released by Tan Wuwei.
The sudden confrontation between two Fourth Grades shocked the monks, who began chanting scriptures at once, Qi and Buddha Light erupting, on guard against the two.
Despair began to take root in Shen Hou's heart, yet he still had no intention to surrender. His eyes twitched as a plan arose in his mind, and he loudly exclaid: "Guangli Bodhisattva, I can tell at a glance that you are a traitor, now you've shown your true colors. Prepare to die!"
Whether useful or not, he first muddled the monks' perception to proceed.
Even at this juncture, Shen Hou remained as cunning as a fox, ready to cap the opponent with accusations before anything.
Unexpectedly...
"Traitor? Manjusri is the real traitor, betraying the Buddhist teachings, betraying the Chief, his cris deserve execusion!"
Guangli Bodhisattva shouted coldly, transforming the Dragon Spear into a dragon. The White Dragon clawed towards Shen Hou's Heavenly Spirit.
Shen Hou was shocked!
No, you really are a traitor!
This...
Fate's trickery, this was nothing more than that.
For the second ti in a short mont, Shen Hou lanted the caprices of fate, the unpredictability of Heaven and Earth, as he slapped the Dragon Whisker Tiger beneath him.
The tiger dashed with four feet, performing the Vertical Earth Golden Light Technique from Yuxu Temple's life-saving escape technique, transforming into a ray of golden light, barely dodging the White Dragon's claws.
At the sa ti, the monks' faces revealed shock, finding it hard to believe the outsider Daoist wasn't the traitor, but Guangli Bodhisattva, their own, was. Yet, there were still clear-headed ones leading Qi and Buddha Light, attacking Guangli.
Nevertheless, Guangli, being a fourth rank, was not so easily shaken. The White Dragon turned its head, moved agilely, a claw scattering the Buddha Light and dispersing the Qi and Blood. Guangli Bodhisattva then gripped tight, Dragon transford back to Spear, one strike turned into thousands.
Blood Light burst forth instantly, countless figures torn apart by the spear's montum, intending a massacre.
Seeing this, Shen Hou intended to step forward to assist his own people, but unexpectedly a trendous Qi and Blood surged from the Blood Light, an Azure Dragon roared forth, wielding Sword Light in its mouth, crashing into the spear wave.
Both collided, Strength swept across the land, causing the ground to crack continuously, the ample Qi and Blood rose like a banner, contending with Guangli, not falling one bit behind.
Guangli, skilled in fighting, was one of the leaders of the Dharma Protecting Divine Generals in Buddha Country, as a cultivator of Buddha Country with Dharma Aspect assistance, rarely t equals in direct confrontation within the sa grade, especially Fourth Grades not from the Buddha Country, facing him had a gap of Dharma Aspect.
Yet now, the enemy encountered was not falling behind in power, and within the trendous Qi and Blood, no trace of Buddha's energy was felt.
Soon after, the powerful aura scattered, revealing a figure radiating robust Qi and Blood, wielding an Azure Dragon Crescent Blade with a Dragon Shadow flashing, its might intimidating.
"Dinghu Sect... Elder Kaiyang?" Shen Hou murmured.
The long-missing Elder Kaiyang of the Dinghu Sect had appeared here, aiding Buddha Country against Guangli Bodhisattva, this developnt...
Was it fate playing tricks again?
Shen Hou no longer understood the course of events.
"Help him."
As he hesitated, a soft voice sounded by his ear, "Deal with Guangli."
Jiang Li? When did he arrive?
Never mind, it's irrelevant, what matters is that our side hasn't been utterly defeated yet.
Despair and ominousness in Shen Hou's heart were swept away, revitalizing his spirit as he loudly exclaid: "Guangli, prepare to die!"
······
······
The commotion behind naturally couldn't escape Manjusri and Tan Wuwei's perception; facing Guangli Bodhisattva's sudden defection, they remained calm, not showing any anger, their focus entirely on the enemy before them.
Killing one third grade outweighs eliminating ten fourth-grade traitors.
Furthermore, from the current situation, both the third grade and the traitors could be purged.
The Great Sun Tathagata Dharma Image flashed suddenly, entering Manjusri's body, the Tathagata Undestructible True Body appeared. True Fire burned on the Wisdom Sword, his might, akin to the sky sun, seed to create two suns in the sky.
"Manjusri's aura at the mont is stronger than at any other ti, incredibly domineering, exceptionally fierce; so mighty, what in this world can stop him? Who can rival him?"
With an Asura Ghost Mask, a man ascended a high cliff, gazing at the Great Sun rising in the distance, he chuckled, "Manjusri must be thinking like this now. Don't you think so, old Daoist?"
Mystic light descended, bearded old Daoist erged from the light, lightly nodded, "The Great Venerable is still so eloquent."
Responding to sothing off-topic, it was unclear whether he was agreeing with the Great Venerable or suggesting the Great Venerable was full of empty talk.
"The old Daoist is still so lacking in humor,"
Witch Zhen, also known as the Great Venerable, clicked unsatisfiedly, then remarked, "Manjusri, and Jiang Li, it's uncertain whether this is the Jiang family's shining twilight glory or things increase and decrease, with these two hidden talents erging after the low point. It remains unknown which of the two will win."
"Daoist Li, who do you think will win?"
The Daoist Lord didn't answer, or rather he didn't have ti to respond when a third party interjected.
"I think I can win."
