Chapter 215 Self-created Sword Technique, Second Form: Severing the Buddha's Eyebrow

What happened at the gates of Tongzhou Prefecture caused a massive uproar.

Thousands of people died in an instant, yet there were no visible injuries on their bodies, as if something had devoured their essence, spirit, and vitality, leaving behind only empty shells.

This scene drew gasps of shock from countless onlookers.

Consequently, the survivors kowtowed even more piously, shouting, 'amitabha, Buddha protect us...'

On the wasteland hundreds of miles away...

The onlookers were all shocked.

'The Buddha Son of Nalanda Temple actually suffered a loss at the hands of the Blade Demon!'

'Too strong! Blade Demon Yan Chu, he definitely has the strength of the top tier of the Earth Ranking!'

'Buddha Son—'

Suppress Three Mountains, Qiao Yan, was terrified. He never expected Yan Chu to be able to sever one of Awakening to emptiness's arms, and that previous saber strike had nearly cost him his life.

As a Supreme Grandmaster who came out of Liangzhou Prefecture, he understood best how strong the Disciples of Nalanda Temple were. After all, they Cultivated the supreme martial arts of the Buddhist Sect, and every one of them was like a Dragon. Those so-called four great gangs and nine Sects of the world were simply nothing in front of Nalanda Temple.

Aside from the supreme Buddhist ancestral court, Ten Thousand Buddha Cave, Nalanda Temple and Hanging Temple were the most powerful.

And as the Buddha Son of Nalanda Temple, Awakening to emptiness having suffered a loss at the hands of Yan Chu would definitely cause a huge stir if word spread back to the Western Regions.

Could it be that this mission could not be completed?

Qiao Yan frowned deeply.

Moreover, Yan Chu was so tyrannical; was it worth offending such a high-level expert on the Earth Ranking for the sake of Changle Gang?

'Good! Great Hero Yan is invincible! Bolster the Divine Might of our Great Jin Dynasty Martial Artists!'

Suddenly, shouts from afar interrupted Qiao Yan's thoughts. He looked over coldly and saw many Martial Artists who had heard the news and were now cheering for Yan Chu.

'Not bad! A bald thief from the Western Regions, regardless of what bullshit Buddha Son he is, he will be beheaded by Great Hero Yan's saber!'

The many Martial Artists looked excited.

Awakening to emptiness came from the Western Regions and was naturally hostile to Great Jin Dynasty Martial Artists, so they would naturally not have any good words for him.

Although Yan Chu also had a fierce reputation in Jianghu, he had become the object of their support at this moment.

'It's a pity that Great Hero Yan's invincible saber technique has to be used to behead this rat!'

On the other side, She Zhijiu and the others were also gathered together, staring ahead with furrowed brows.

Compared to the other Jianghu people, they did not want to see Yan Chu win.

If Yan Chu won, would they have any way to survive?

'Eunuch Qiu, what martial art did Awakening to emptiness just use? How could it block a fatal saber strike for him?'

Eunuch Qiu's old face wore a grave expression as he said:

'This is the Compassionate Light Illuminating Suffering Sutra of Nalanda Temple!'

'This scripture is extremely evil. It can absorb the essence, spirit, and vitality of believers to condense into the Buddha light behind the head. It can be used as a powerful attack method, and it can also serve as a substitute for death once.'

'The fact that Awakening to emptiness just dodged a fatal saber strike means that the believers he converted along the way blocked this strike for him. They are probably all dead!'

'What? There is such an evil Cultivation Technique in the world?'

Xu Jingfeng and the others were all shocked.

Such methods were even more bizarre than the simple killing of the Demonic Path; it truly devoured the believers completely.

'Hmph!'

Eunuch Qiu snorted coldly and said irritably:

'The bald donkeys of the Buddhist Sect are all hypocrites. As a top Buddhist temple, Nalanda Temple is naturally the epitome of them.'

'If they were really as good as they claim, why would our Great Jin Dynasty honor the Dao and suppress the Buddha?'

Hearing Eunuch Qiu's words, everyone could not help but nod repeatedly.

Compared to the Daoists, those bald thieves of the Buddhist Sect were indeed more greedy and hypocritical, making one feel disgusted.

At this time, Governor She Zhijiu could not help but whisper a reminder:

'Eunuch Qiu, Hanging Temple supports the First Prince!'

Eunuch Qiu's tone stalled upon hearing this, his expression immediately becoming much more varied. He coughed lightly and said:

'Of course, the high monks of Hanging Temple are different from other monks. They are truly devoid of the four attachments, and they are still worthy of our respect and love!'

'Yes, yes, Eunuch Qiu is right!'

The people from the Prefectural Governors Mansion hurriedly changed the subject, agreeing one after another, expressing that they felt the same.

Qin Hexuan frowned and asked:

'Eunuch Qiu, I see that Awakening to emptiness seems unable to do anything to Yan Chu. Should we do something?'

Eunuch Qiu narrowed his eyes, staring closely at the two people in the arena, and slowly said:

'Act according to circumstances later!'

'If Awakening to emptiness shows signs of defeat, you all go up and help settle the scene with me!'

'In any case, we cannot let Yan Chu leave this place alive!'

'Hiss... amitabha!'

Awakening to emptiness looked at Yan Chu with an extremely grave expression, the wound on his arm causing him to gasp in pain.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

He tapped continuously on the Acupoints of his arm. The flesh at the severed end glowed, and strands of granulation tissue wriggled, about to grow a new palm.

'Dream on!'

How could Yan Chu give the opponent such a chance?

It had to be said that Awakening to emptiness was very strong, considered the strongest opponent he had encountered so far.

But no matter how strong he was, he had to become a ghost under his saber!

Hum!

Yan Chu raised his palm blade again. Countless bright saber glares whistled out, and the overwhelming saber light submerged Awakening to emptiness. The Saber Intent was murderous, and the cold air was biting.

It was the Cold Blade Ice Heart of the Six Arts of Arrogant Cold.

The coldness of the saber light blocked all of Awakening to emptiness's paths of retreat. The area within dozens of miles was affected by this coldness, and heavy snow began to fall.

'Benefactor Yan, you are going too far!'

Awakening to emptiness had an indifferent expression. Yan Chu's step-by-step pressure caused intense killing intent to rise in his calm state of mind, and he finally stopped putting on any facade of compassion.

He stepped back on golden light, and the Buddhist beads on his neck flew out, transforming into a circle of golden, radiant light shadows, chanting around him.

Bang! Clang! Clang!

Countless saber lights fell on the light shadows. The turbulent Origin Qi clashed, and the biting sharpness brought by the saber light made even the Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters feel as if their whole bodies were being scraped by steel blades, causing waves of pain, even from more than ten miles away.

'Damn it! We have to retreat again!'

The crowd of Jianghu people cursed and retreated hundreds of feet back.

If it weren't for their decent cultivation, and their eyesight and Divine Sense being extraordinary, they wouldn't even have the qualifications to watch the battle.

Yan Chu was expressionless. He used the Six Arts of Arrogant Cold one by one, and the brilliant saber light, like a cold current, poured wantonly onto the golden light barrier in front.

The sound of the saber glares slashing echoed in all directions, but there was a layer of flowing golden light that could not be broken.

'Yan Chu! Although your Saber Intent Realm has reached the No-Saber level, don't dream of breaking my Buddhist treasure!'

Amidst the flying snow, Awakening to emptiness looked mocking and formed a seal with one hand.

'Immovable Wisdom King, Fundamental Secret Seal!'

'Please, Wisdom King, manifest! Subdue demons and eliminate devils!'

Dong!

Following Awakening to emptiness's loud roar, the seal was completed. The Sanskrit chanting emitted by the Buddhist beads became even more magnificent, like a great bell, pointing directly at everyone's inner hearts.

Slap!

The Wisdom King Dharma Image behind him clasped its hands together, and the Buddhist beads flew onto the neck of the Dharma Image. The expression and movements of the entire Dharma Image became agile.

A terrifying aura, as high and distant as the sky, overwhelmed the entire wasteland, rising straight into the clouds.

'Benefactor Yan, the Wisdom King has appeared!'

'You had better obediently be transcended by my Buddha!'

Awakening to emptiness's face was flushed red, and a hint of fanaticism appeared in his expression.

'Is that so?'

Yan Chu stood in the distance. With a clang, a bright saber appeared in his hand.

Countless ice crystals spread from under his feet to all directions, condensing into saber-shaped icicles. He stood among them, as if surrounded by ice blades.

'Let's see if your bullshit Wisdom King can withstand this saber strike of mine!'

'A Divine Weapon?!'

Awakening to emptiness's pupils shrank, but immediately turned into a sneer.

'What if it is a Divine Weapon? My Buddhist treasure is not inferior to a Divine Weapon!'

As the words fell, he roared loudly,

'Please, Wisdom King, eliminate the demons!'

Roar!

As Awakening to emptiness's voice fell, the Wisdom King Dharma Image let out a loud roar. The roar transformed into golden sound waves, carrying the power to subdue all living beings, lifting the earth within several miles in front.

Wisdom King Lion's Roar!

This roar pointed directly at the human heart. The weaker the will, the less able one was to resist the roar, and one would have their Three Ethereal Souls and Seven Corporeal Spirits shattered.

'Ice Seals Three Feet!'

Yan Chu also let out a loud shout. The saber light, wrapped in the flying snow, built walls of thick ice one after another in front.

Red Apricot in the Snow!

Behind the ice walls, countless sharp saber glares extended, hiding killing intent, forming pieces of saber wheels that collided with the sound waves.

Boom!

A terrifying golden and white mushroom cloud rushed up, bringing countless waves of Origin Qi and ice, clearing the heavy snow within a radius of more than ten miles.

'amitabha!'

After the rolling snow, a vigorous chant was heard.

A ten-foot-tall Wisdom King strode out, and a golden palm print pressed down towards the bottom.

In the palm, the golden ' swastika' symbol rotated endlessly, imprisoning all living beings below. It possessed both the suppression of a treasure mountain and the intimidation of a lion's head, wanting to make Yan Chu submit.

Clang!

The saber light flashed, and a cold intent came from the frost Ming saber. In harmony with Yan Chu's heart, his mood was extremely calm. At this moment, Yan Chu's Saber Intent Realm reached a higher level.

Self-Created Saber Technique Second Form, Severing the Buddha's Eyebrow!

Startling coldness surged out, unaffected by any thoughts. One saber went straight up, with thousands of changes condensed into one strike.

Crack!

The saber light fell straight down, but the Buddha palm could no longer fall.

A saber mark appeared on the forehead of the ten-foot Wisdom King, and a streak of Saber Intent pierced through from the mark. Countless saber lights shattered the Wisdom King Dharma Image into thousands of fragments.

Even the string of Buddhist beads became fragments and fell onto the ice field.

Pfft!

Awakening to emptiness spat out a mouthful of blood, his face pale as paper.

The Wisdom King was broken, and he suffered a great backlash.

Swish!

Suddenly, a tall shadow shrouded him. He couldn't help but raise his head, his face changing drastically, and he said:

'Benefactor Yan, actually... Pfft!'

A saber stroke swept across, and the bald head flew into the sky, rolling a few times on the ground before being frozen into a round lump.

[Slay Supreme Grandmaster of Nalanda Temple, extremely satisfying, Experience + 50000, Heaven-Changing Earth-Striking Great Art + 1]

'You are a Buddha Son, after all, can you not even see through the matter of life and death?'

Yan Chu shook his head.

In the distance, Zheng Wan could not resist She Manman's pestering, and plus she also wanted to see if Yan Chu could survive, so she finally brought her along and chased after them.

As a result, as soon as they arrived, they saw the scene of Yan Chu beheading the Wisdom King with one saber.

This saber strike not only extinguished the Wisdom King but also slashed into the hearts of the two women.

Too powerful!

'The Buddha Son... is dead?!'

Suppress Three Mountains, Qiao Yan, stared blankly at Awakening to emptiness's headless corpse, somewhat unable to believe it.

The Wisdom King Dharma Image just now was so powerful; even from so far away, they could feel the pressure from the Wisdom King. How could it be destroyed by Yan Chu in the next second?

This was the Buddha Son of Nalanda Temple!

The next moment, his hair suddenly stood on end. Yan Chu's cold gaze looked over.

Run!

Without hesitation, Qiao Yan exploded with his full cultivation, and with a boom, he turned into a rainbow light and broke into the sky.

Hum!

As soon as he rushed into the sky, a buzzing sound suddenly came to his ears, followed by a piercing pain from his legs.

'Ugh! Ah!!!'

Two thighs fell down one after another.

'Spare my life—'

Qiao Yan was terrified and screamed for mercy.

Hum! Hum!

Saber glares formed in Yan Chu's hands, and there were two more buzzing sounds. Both arms also left his body.

With another saber strike, his head flew high, his eyes wide open, and a column of blood sprayed from his neck, leaving a trail of blood in the high sky.

[Slay Supreme Grandmaster of Liangzhou Prefecture, extremely satisfying, Experience + 50000]

'Damn it, I didn't even go to provoke you, and you guys came to deal with me!'

'Do you really think I have a good temper?'

Kicking Qiao Yan's upper body into a blood mist, Yan Chu looked down, a sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Below, Eunuch Qiu and the others were scattering and fleeing.

Yan Chu's saber strike was too stunning and too deeply ingrained in people's hearts.

Clearly, a moment ago, they thought Yan Chu would die under the Wisdom King's palm, but in the next second, the Wisdom King died at Yan Chu's hands.

At this moment, Eunuch Qiu was the fastest to escape.

His Thousand Silk Guidance was also very good at movement techniques, and now only a shadow could be seen.

However, in front of the Unrestrained Ascension Step, he was more than a notch worse.

Whoosh!

There seemed to be a faint sound of wind blowing, but in reality, there was none. Yan Chu's figure disappeared from where he was and appeared behind Eunuch Qiu with a leisurely stroll.

A startling intuition appeared behind Eunuch Qiu, making his hair stand on end. He turned his head and looked, just in time to meet Yan Chu's eyes.

Damn!

Like a ghost!

Eunuch Qiu shouted loudly in his heart, tapping his ten fingers continuously. Countless fine threads shot out, light and weightless, yet they could easily cut through the air.

Yan Chu pointed a finger.

Three-Point Divine Finger, Severing Jade and Dividing Gold!

The air in front was torn apart by this finger, and the countless threads were cut off by this finger, dissipating between heaven and earth.

'Yan Chu! I am a person of the First Prince. Do you want to go against the First Prince?'

Eunuch Qiu shouted loudly, his figure unfolding like a ghost, changing his position more than ten times within a hundred feet in a moment.

But no matter where he changed to, that finger glow followed like a shadow, pointing straight at his forehead.

'Nonsense!'

Yan Chu's movement technique was mysterious and unparalleled, and his tone was cold.

He had already killed so many, did he care about one more?

What bullshit First Prince, how many of his saber strikes could he take?

'Great Hero Yan! Let's talk things over! I am willing to surrender!'

Eunuch Qiu was terrified, not expecting that he would be so weak in front of Yan Chu.

How could this be?

He was only at the Peak of the Ninth Realm!

Pfft!

As soon as Eunuch Qiu finished speaking, Yan Chu's finger pierced through the void and pointed at his forehead. The tyrannical finger force poked through his Niwan Palace, his Primordial Spirit instantly disintegrated, and his Physical Body was pointed into a blood mist.

[Kill Supreme Grandmaster, extremely satisfying, Experience + 50000]

'If it were another time, I might have spared your life, after all, I lack a eunuch by my side!'

'It's a pity that I am too short of experience now!'

Yan Chu looked to the other side. Qin Hexuan was riding his sword, piercing through the sea of clouds, fleeing for his life.

'Damn it! Where can I go now?'

Qin Hexuan's face was full of terror. The world was vast, but he felt he had no place to hide.

Now he completely believed that Hidden Sword Palace might have really been destroyed by Yan Chu.

With such a stunning saber strike, his Master and the others were definitely not opponents.

'Palace Master Qin, where do you want to go?'

Suddenly, a slightly hoarse voice sounded beside him, scaring Qin Hexuan so much that he almost lost his footing on the sword and fell off.

Looking at Yan Chu who suddenly appeared in front of him, Qin Hexuan's smile was uglier than crying,

'I... I don't know!'
