Ding Chunqiu was consumed by rage, gritting his teeth, his heart churning with unending hatred.
He not only hated Wu Yazi but also hated Fahai for seizing his Opportunity.
“Baldy, take a palm from this old immortal!”
Ding Chunqiu roared, channeling all his Cultivation, and struck with full force!
His Corpse-Corroding Palm was unleashed with frenzied power!
The potent poison within his body circulated through his Meridians, gathered in his palm, and was violently discharged!
A dense, layered mist of poison suddenly billowed out, engulfing Fahai completely!
The onlookers, witnessing this scene, all paled in horror and quickly retreated several steps, fearing to be affected.
This was Ding Chunqiu's “Corpse-Corroding Palm,” a supremely poisonous ultimate skill, condensed from his life's Cultivation.
This poisonous mist contained a mixture of various deadly poisons; even a single wisp inhaled would cause immediate poisoning.
Its toxicity was extremely potent; once afflicted, one would suffer severe injuries at best, and at worst, be completely paralyzed, unable to fight again for life.
Ding Chunqiu's attack was ruthless and merciless, clearly intended to take Fahai's life.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have unleashed such a fierce and brutal killing move right at the start of their engagement.
“Little Master!”
Wanwan cried out in alarm, her face full of anxiety.
She worried that Fahai would suffer from this poisonous attack, damaging his Foundation.
Seeing the worry on her face,
Fahai calmly responded, “It's fine, just a bit of poison, nothing to worry about.”
If an ordinary person faced Ding Chunqiu's poison techniques, they would likely be helpless and unable to avoid it.
But Fahai was no ordinary person.
He wore a Kasaya!
This Kasaya possessed the abilities to be impervious to blades and spears, resistant to water and fire, immune to all poisons, and capable of dispelling all evil.
Though the poisonous mist was potent, it was like a gentle breeze to him, having no effect whatsoever.
“Kasaya!”
Fahai let out a low shout and tossed the Kasaya into the air.
The Kasaya unfurled with the wind, instantly growing larger, its golden light dazzling and radiating brilliantly!
In an instant, the poisonous mist that had covered the sky was completely dispersed.
Not a single trace remained.
“This... how is this possible?”
“Such a divine item exists in this world!”
Ding Chunqiu was dumbfounded, his face filled with disbelief.
He had roamed the Jianghu for many years with this poison Cultivation Technique, killing countless people, and had never failed.
Today, however, it was broken by Fahai, by this Kasaya.
What was the origin of this Kasaya?
His poison, even a trace of it, would severely injure an ordinary Grandmaster on the spot.
But now, it was easily neutralized by a piece of clothing.
His heart was filled with confusion and shock.
Just then, Fahai spoke again.
“Buddhist Staff!”
As his voice fell, he already held his Buddhist Staff, charging out fiercely, and struck down with a single staff blow!
In that instant, golden light surged, and its power was overwhelming!
A massive force poured out from the Buddhist Staff.
A gigantic phantom seemed to flash across the sky!
“What kind of weapon is this?”
“How can it be so astonishing!”
The heroes, witnessing this, were all dumbfounded, exclaiming repeatedly.
Ding Chunqiu felt a bone-chilling coldness Attack his back!
“Qi-Dissolving Skill!”
He dared not hesitate and immediately activated his Cultivation Technique, attempting to neutralize Fahai's attack.
But the moment the Buddhist Staff met his palms—
A furious power exploded like thunder!
Ding Chunqiu coughed up blood, his entire body flew backward, and he crashed heavily to the ground!
The entire venue fell into a deathly silence!
One move!
He only used one move to defeat the renowned Grandmaster Ding Chunqiu!
The Jianghu heroes were all astonished, staring at the figure standing unmoving with the Buddhist Staff, unable to accept the reality before their eyes for a moment.
Their eyes were filled with shock and awe.
Fahai's strength had reached such a level!
Ding Chunqiu struggled to prop himself up from the ground, his gaze at Fahai filled with terror.
“Everyone, this person is no longer who he once was.”
“He must remember all the pressure you exerted earlier.”
“If you don't act now, you will never have another chance later.”
“Otherwise, you will all eventually be controlled by him!”
Ding Chunqiu knew he was no match for him, so he had an idea, wanting to rally others to collectively attack Fahai.
He vainly hoped to kill with a borrowed knife!
Hearing this, everyone exchanged glances, hesitating.
Indeed, they had jointly pressured Fahai, forcing him to hand over the Legacy he had obtained.
With his temperament, how could he easily let go?
Although they intended to suppress him, the current Fahai was too strong.
Ding Chunqiu, though only at the Grandmaster Early Stage, was a long-renowned veteran expert.
His martial arts were unpredictable and mysterious; a slight carelessness could lead to a dangerous situation.
He was even more troublesome than an ordinary Grandmaster Middle Stage expert.
However, he was utterly defenseless against Fahai's single strike.
Fahai's power instilled fear, making it difficult for them to decide.
Just as everyone hesitated, a monk slowly walked out, standing before the crowd, facing Fahai from a distance.
“amitabha, Good, good, good.”
“Little Master, you and I are both Buddhist Disciples, and this humble monk is willing to leave you a glimmer of hope.”
“A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure makes him guilty.”
“You, alone, carrying such a great Opportunity, cannot escape the covetousness of others.”
“Why not hand over what you obtained in the cave to this humble monk? This humble monk only seeks the Legacy; once obtained, I will leave immediately.”
“I will absolutely not harm your life; what do you think?”
The speaker was Jiumozhi, the Tibetan High Monk already famous in the Central Plains.
He was actually at the Grandmaster Middle Stage Realm, proficient in Buddhist teachings, with profound Cultivation, far surpassing Ding Chunqiu.
Moreover, he was one of the Eight Great Ming Kings of the Western Regions, surely possessing hidden means.
If one were to incur his wrath, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Especially in this place, it was almost equivalent to making an enemy of all the powerful figures on Wuliang Mountain.
Jiumozhi was confident that Fahai would not easily offend him.
Not only because they belonged to the same Buddhist lineage, but also because of his own profound Cultivation.
More importantly, Fahai was currently surrounded by enemies, isolated and without aid.
Among the many enemies, he was already the most significant figure.
Once he withdrew, Fahai's pressure would naturally lessen.
Therefore, he dared to propose such an exchange.
Without needing to fight, he could obtain the coveted Cultivation Technique Legacy with just a few words.
The High Monk from the Western Regions was indeed cunning!
“This Jiumozhi is truly thoughtful.”
“Fahai is in a desperate situation, and he is so powerful.”
“To avoid making too many enemies, Fahai might choose to yield.”
“In this way, Jiumozhi expends no effort but uses the momentum of the Jianghu people to force Fahai to hand over his sect's Legacy.”
“He not only avoids making enemies but also gains Fahai's gratitude.”
“This plan is truly brilliant.”
Someone whispered, and a hint of dissatisfaction appeared in their eyes as they looked at Jiumozhi.
This was clearly using them as tools!
However, due to Jiumozhi's high martial arts skill, no one dared to speak loudly.
Jiumozhi calmly looked at Fahai.
He was certain that the other party would choose to accept reality.
Because, for now, this was the most reasonable choice.
Unexpectedly, the outcome was completely different from what he had anticipated.
Fahai merely snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain.
“Jiumozhi, you are deeply greedy, strong in anger and hatred, and foolishly ignorant, hardly resembling a cultivator. Your Buddhist Foundation is shallow to this extent.”
“Do you still deserve to be called one of the Five Great Ming Kings of the Western Regions?”
“Is the reputation of the Western Regions inflated?”
“To vainly covet the Opportunity this humble monk has obtained is a fool's dream!”
“In terms of Buddhist attainment, you are far too inferior. You might as well go to heaven early and seek guidance from the Buddha.”
Fahai's reprimand directly trampled Jiumozhi's dignity into the ground, repeatedly.
As his voice fell, the entire venue instantly became dead silent, not a sound to be heard.
Fahai, was he really that resolute?
How dared he speak like that?
He even threatened to send Jiumozhi on his way?
Such a strong attitude was utterly beyond everyone's expectations!
