Chapter 105: The Annihilation of the Vajra Sect
Chapter 105: The Annihilation of the Vajra Sect
On top of Pingkang Mountain, the rocks shook.
A slender figure suddenly rushed out and soared into the air.
Over thirty Golden Eagle Military Officers, who had been keeping watch for a long time, were caught off guard but didn't hesitate for a moment under the leadership of two deputy generals.
"Chain him up!"
Cold iron chains, like spirit snakes, instantly bound the man in the air tightly.
Several dozen Demon-Binding Chains were stretched taut as the two deputy generals focused their qi, stepping on the eye of the formation and directing the energy of everyone present onto the chains.
They then took out specially made silver hooks meant to pierce through the gaps in the opponent's bones and prepared to leap into the air, but their faces suddenly changed.
The chains were pulled taut, and though these chains could bind even demon monsters in the Pill Formation stage, the problem now lay with the dozens of Demon-Binding Officers holding them.
Their faces contorted, and the veins on their foreheads bulged as they strained to hold onto the chains.
Their boots sank into the ground, and their knees made cracking sounds.
Even so, the figure in the air was still struggling slightly.
"...”
On the branch of a tall ancient cypress tree, Jiang Chengyun stood with his hands behind his back.
Taking in the situation from afar, he was slightly puzzled. "What a domineering tempering body technique."
Only those who had truly reached the Pill Formation stage could understand the terrifying gap between it and the Jade Liquid stage. The power displayed by the abbot at this moment had almost crossed half of that gap, or perhaps even more.
The abbot of the Vajra Sect stared blankly at the ground below before looking at the Demon-Binding Chains binding him. Then, he grabbed the chains with his hands.
His consciousness seemed to clear slightly.
The strange smile on his face faded, replaced by endless coldness.
"Below the Pill Formation stage, I am invincible."
As he spoke, he casually pulled on the chains, causing the officers to stumble.
"Above the Pill Formation stage..."
The abbot slowly removed the chains from his body, unhurried and calm. "I may still be able to fight."
"Hmph."
Jiang Chengyun shook his head but didn't refute the abbot's claim in his heart.
He extended his palm and quickly gathered a strand of black and white qi. With the abbot's skill, he already had the means to escape, and even if Jiang Chengyun took action himself, he couldn't be too careless.
As he was about to leap down from the tree branch, his movement paused.
At the entrance of the main hall, a figure in ink-colored robes suddenly appeared without the slightest hesitation and instantly soared into the air.
A crisp and powerful whip-kick landed squarely on the abbot's shoulder!
Bang!!
The old abbot was still calmly removing the chains when, caught off guard, his slender figure was abruptly knocked down.
Boom—
With him as the center, several fissures rapidly spread across the ground.
The abbot of the Vajra Sect lay in a deep pit, his eyes filled with confusion as he stared at the figure above. Shen Yi tugged at his collar, casually discarding the cumbersome Wolf Cloak, and lunged forward once more!
He began with the technique of Severing Meridians and Capturing Dragons.
His fists rained down like a storm!
The abbot flipped over and countered with his own fists and palms, neither of them dodging or adding any flourish to their movements. Their exchange was brutal and decisive!
Trees thick enough for several people to hug were knocked over, and ancient rocks eroded by time shattered at their touch.
The onlookers watched with pounding hearts. No matter which of the two they looked at, they saw strength far beyond what one would expect from the Jade Liquid stage.
"...”
Jiang Chengyun watched silently from a distance.
Even he couldn't quite tell who was winning or losing in this clash of tempered bodies.
However, he reassessed Shen Yi's strength.
No wonder he dared to be so arrogant. Aside from having reached the peak of the Jade Liquid stage at a young age, he also possessed an astonishingly powerful body.
Even if Jiang Chengyun hadn't come today, Shen Yi would have been more than capable of holding his own against the abbot of the Vajra Sect, if not defeating him outright.
Good! Good!
Arrogance without strength was mere self-delusion, but when backed by sufficient power to match that arrogance, it signified true talent!
Qingzhou needed a new generation of talented individuals like this, and only with such capabilities would they be qualified to stand behind Jiang Qiuluan in the future!
Jiang Chengyun didn't want to babysit Chen Qiankun's children, nor did he appreciate the old man's inexplicable kindness.
But at this moment, he slowly stepped forward, ready to tie up any loose ends for his young and not yet fully matured colleague.
He had merely leaked a hint of his aura, yet in the midst of their intense battle, his opponent still had the leisure to observe their surroundings?
And what was the meaning behind that warning glance?
Jiang Chengyun's expression changed slightly... He truly had no intention of stealing credit this time, but this young man seemed to be adapting to the role of the Silver Bell Demon Catcher even faster than they had imagined.
"You thieving scoundrel!"
The abbot of the Vajra Sect suddenly let out a loud roar, his anger reaching its peak. The colors of black and white on his arms became even more prominent, and the power contained within them seemed to have increased by another threefold!
It was evident that he had realized the source of Shen Yi's unusually tough body.
Anger mixed with jealousy!
The Bodhi Treasure Tree had withered long ago due to the excessive demands of warriors who lacked understanding of Buddhism. Where had this young man found a similar spiritual plant? If they could get their hands on it, there would be no need for all this trouble of trying to revive the Vajra Sect through other martial arts.
Moreover, the youth's strength had far surpassed the upper limit of the Bodhi Vajra Body, and compared to his own Half-Pill Condensation Tempering Body Technique, it was only slightly inferior.
If he hadn't finally reached perfection today, he truly would have lost to this young man.
"..."
Shen Yi adjusted his breathing, sealing the abbot's right arm with a final piercing punch.
Even with the augmentation of the Flood Dragon Demon's power, the Hundred-Refined Alligator Dragon Body, and the high-grade Jade Liquid Realm tempering body martial art, he still felt a sense of strain.
The abbot's black and white aura blocked the Severing Meridians and Capturing Dragons technique, reducing its effectiveness. It only managed to slow the abbot's movements slightly, which was barely enough to prevent him from escaping.
In an instant, the straight-edged Yi Dao was unsheathed.
Shen Yi channeled all his power into the Greedy Wolf Demon-Slaying technique, causing the blade to turn pitch-black and stab straight into the abbot's heart, piercing through an inch of flesh.
The old abbot joined his palms together, clamping down on the blade.
The muscles pierced by the blade rapidly convulsed, and the black and white light flickered, slowly pushing the blade out.
"I said, below the Pill Formation stage, I am invincible!"
The abbot's face twisted with a sinister smile, and he slowly exerted force with his palms, intending to break the straight blade in half! Shen Yi's expression remained unchanged, but a hint of scarlet appeared in his eyes.
The Molten Sun Treasure Furnace, formed by countless crimson veins, roared to life for a moment. The external pill floating in his qi sea quietly awakened, and strands of demonic qi swiftly drilled out.
Compared to the previous instance where they had scattered uncontrollably, this time, guided by Shen Yi's will, they surged into the Yi Dao through his palm.
A demonic aura emanated from the pitch-black blade!
Puchi!
The old abbot stared blankly downward, at the long blade that had pierced through him, as his robust body swiftly withered, his smooth skin wrinkling before their very eyes.
He reacted swiftly, trying to push Shen Yi away, but the sudden appearance of crimson light on the Yi Dao wreaked havoc within his body, turning his organs into mush before consuming them entirely.
"...” Many of the military officers and commanders initially thought that the two were evenly matched, but it seemed that Shen had grown tired of toying with his opponent and had simply drawn his sword to slaughter the old abbot.
"...” Compared to the others, Jiang Chengyun saw much more clearly, but his feelings were not too different.
First, he used the army commander's unique technique, Severing Meridians and Capturing Dragons, to seal the abbot's meridians, indicating that he was afraid the enemy would escape and suggesting that Shen Yi wasn't very confident in his own light martial arts.
As for that final strike, it appeared ordinary but was, in fact, a risky and highly consuming deadly move.
Even for Jiang Chengyun, a warrior who had condensed his pill, blocking that strike would require some effort.
The current Jade Liquid Realm... it was truly becoming harder and harder to understand these days.
"Huh."
Shen Yi withdrew his blade and casually returned it to its sheath.
He adjusted his collar and glanced at the abbot, who was now little more than a bag of skin, raising an eyebrow slightly.
You claim to be invincible below the Pill Formation stage.
Then what am I?
