The surrounding onlookers were also stunned into silence.
That person died?
An Acquired Realm Martial Artist, just like that, gone?
Killed by a single palm strike?
An absurd feeling welled up in everyone's hearts, but the headless corpse on the ground forced them to accept the reality.
It was like a dream!
A Xingxiu Sect Disciple, who usually acted arrogantly and had a notorious reputation, was actually killed by a single palm strike from this outwardly delicate and seemingly weak Little Monk?
The bloodstains and remains on the ground severely impacted everyone's nerves.
The strong, pungent smell of blood assailed them, making everyone shiver with fear and look at Fahai with reverence.
Although it was Fahai's first time killing, his expression remained normal, as if nothing had happened, simply waiting for the System's prompt to sound.
【Host detected breaking the killing precept, first time breaking a precept, generous reward.】
【Reward gift package has been issued, please check.】
Another gift package!
This was the third precept he had broken, how exhilarating!
If a few more blind ones came, and he broke a few more precepts, how astonishing would the rewards be!
Fahai was not in a hurry to open the gift package. This place was crowded and chaotic, and there were still Xingxiu Sect Disciples present.
This was not the time to check the rewards. After dealing with the current matters, he would find a quiet place to look at them slowly.
His gaze was calm as he looked at Zhaixing Zi.
Zhaixing Zi's expression finally changed.
He hadn't even had time to react to that palm strike!
And he was an Innate Realm expert!
The shock and apprehension in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
That palm strike had directly shattered that person's head.
How strong was this Monk exactly?
Moreover, for a renunciant, his moves were so ruthless?
He acted without hesitation, and with such a merciless method as shattering a head with a single palm strike!
Even he wouldn't dare to do that!
Zhaixing Zi's face was grim as he stared intently at Fahai.
Although it was his Junior Brother who died, he didn't care about that person's life.
But the problem was, that person was acting on his orders, yet was killed on the spot.
This was clearly a slap to his face.
Killing a Xingxiu Sect member right in front of him, this was courting death!
Zhaixing Zi could not stand by and do nothing.
No wonder this Monk dared to ignore him; so he had some real skill.
But so what?
Zhaixing Zi was a renowned figure on the innate ranking!
When had it ever been his turn to be looked down upon!
Burning with rage, Zhaixing Zi immediately made his move!
In an instant, the Aura of the Innate Realm erupted, astonishingly powerful!
He was furious and directly unleashed his ultimate technique—
“Mian Zhang (Cotton Palm)!”
This skill was originally created by Ding Chunqiu. After being passed to Zhaixing Zi, it became a secret technique of the Xingxiu Sect.
This was a sinister and difficult-to-Master palm technique. Those struck by it would have all their bones shattered and internal organs destroyed, dying a miserable death!
Zhaixing Zi was clearly enraged to the extreme, otherwise, he wouldn't have used this ultimate technique right from the start, aiming for a single-strike kill!
Other Xingxiu Sect Disciples exclaimed when they saw this:
“It’s Mian Zhang (Cotton Palm)!”
“Senior Brother is serious now; that Little Bald Donkey is definitely dead!”
“No one who has been hit by Senior Brother’s palm has ever survived!”
Fahai snorted, his face full of disdain.
“Such petty tricks, dare to use them in front of me?”
“Great Might Heavenly Dragon!”
Before his words finished, Fahai suddenly struck, his Innate cultivation erupting, his Aura sweeping all around like a tsunami!
A vast and unparalleled Internal Energy surged like a torrent, spreading out instantly!
Faintly, a low Dragon roar sounded.
A powerful palm strike, incomparably fierce, shot out!
This palm strike was completely different from Zhaixing Zi’s “Mian Zhang (Cotton Palm)”!
Zhaixing Zi, who had come charging unexpectedly, was repelled by Fahai's casual strike. His chest was visibly caved in with a clear palm print, and he fell heavily to the ground.
After a dull thud, silence fell all around.
Everyone widened their eyes, unable to believe the scene before them.
He was defeated just like that?
“This young Monk actually possesses such strength?”
“Zhaixing Zi was actually killed by a single palm strike?!”
The inn buzzed with discussion, everyone filled with amazement.
The Xingxiu Sect Disciples, one by one, turned pale, their legs weak, filled with terror.
Xuzhu stood frozen, his mouth slightly agape, staring blankly at Fahai.
Fahai calmly withdrew his hand, as if he had merely brushed off dust.
“The legendary innate ranking expert is nothing more than this.”
“He… he killed Senior Brother!”
A scream broke the silence, and the Xingxiu Sect Disciples suddenly snapped back to reality, their eyes filled with fear, all staring at this calm-faced Little Monk.
The Xingxiu Sect Disciples immediately panicked and became disoriented, someone shouted:
“Quick, go tell Master!”
Before his words finished, they had already scattered and fled, not daring to stay for another moment.
These people had arrived with aggressive Aura, but now they were in a sorry state, fleeing in a panic.
Fahai naturally wouldn't let them leave.
“Trying to run? You are all walking gift packages.”
Fahai murmured to himself, then his figure flashed, catching up to one person as fast as lightning.
He raised his hand and struck with a palm!
It landed squarely on his back!
The person fell to the ground in response, without any power to resist.
Fahai moved like a shadow, appearing one after another behind the other Xingxiu Sect Disciples, killing them one by one.
These people were all merely Acquired Realm cultivators; how could they be a match for Fahai, who was in the Innate Realm?
One by one, they died on the spot.
At the same time, System prompts sounded consecutively.
【Host detected breaking the killing precept, reward gift package.】
Six consecutive prompts exploded in his mind.
Fahai stopped, looking around.
Including Zhaixing Zi, there were exactly seven people, lying scattered on the ground.
He lightly clapped his hands, a satisfied smile on his face.
“A family, after all, should be neat and complete.”
Six gift packages were added to his account. Although they couldn't compare to the grand gift package from the first time breaking the killing precept, the others were small gifts.
Each time a precept was broken, the critical strike progress would accumulate, and a critical strike reward could be triggered after ten times.
He had already broken the precept of lust and the precept of drinking alcohol, and was only two times away from activating it.
He was quite looking forward to the critical strike reward.
At this moment, everyone in the inn was dumbfounded, watching Fahai slaughter all the Xingxiu Sect members as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.
Faces revealed astonished expressions, mouths slightly agape, eyes filled with disbelief.
After their minds had settled a little, when everyone looked at Fahai again, their eyes held a hint of reverence.
This young Monk, looked young, with fair skin and a delicate appearance.
But his strength was astonishingly powerful; he was a deeply hidden expert!
With such cultivation, even Zhaixing Zi was not his opponent.
One must know that Zhaixing Zi was the Xingxiu Sect's Great Disciple, and in the entire School, besides Ding Chunqiu, he held the highest position.
He was famous throughout the Jianghu, his prestige resounding.
Yet he died on the spot under a single palm strike!
Not only that, this Little Master acted decisively and ruthlessly.
Every move targeted a vital point, a single strike was fatal.
Some people even had their heads directly shattered by his palm.
Who said Monks couldn't kill?
When this Little Master acted, it was either a broken arm or leg, or instant death, leaving no survivors.
He was simply Wuqing (ruthless).
Was he still a renunciant?
Although everyone was afraid of Fahai's methods, they were also secretly happy that the Xingxiu Sect had suffered a blow.
The Xingxiu Sect's behavior was usually perverse. From Sect Leader Ding Chunqiu downwards, the Disciples were all notorious, causing harm everywhere, and the common people were full of grievances.
Only because the Xingxiu Sect was powerful and skilled in poisoning, ordinary people dared not speak out in anger.
If someone could stand up and teach them a lesson, it would naturally be a great relief to everyone.
Now, Fahai had heavily damaged the Xingxiu Sect, not only killing multiple Disciples but also taking down their number two figure in one fell swoop.
This action undoubtedly vented a lot of anger for the public.
At this moment in the inn, everyone both feared Fahai and secretly rejoiced.
And that Little Monk, Xuzhu, continuously chanted Buddhist scriptures in a low voice.
“Amitabha, Amitabha…”
“A sin, a sin.”
He grew up on Shaoshi Mountain, taught by his Master, not to harm any living thing.
He wouldn't even dare to step on an ant.
The bloody scene he witnessed today had a huge impact on him.
He looked at Fahai, wanting to speak several times, but didn't know how to begin.
The previous confrontation with Zhaixing Zi was unavoidable, but later, those Xingxiu Sect Disciples had already scattered and fled, so why did he still have to strike with such deadly force?
Fahai's actions today were completely different from the teachings he received in the temple, even going against them.
Finally, Xuzhu still mustered the courage to speak.
Senior Brother Fahai has committed such a killing karma; he cannot be allowed to go astray!
“Senior Brother Fahai, they all ran away, why did you still pursue them to kill them all? Will the Buddha not blame you for such a massacre?”
Fahai merely smiled faintly, shaking his head gently.
“They have long committed many evil deeds. Even if I killed them, it is their just deserts. If the Buddha is to blame anyone, he should blame themselves.”
“But, they… haven’t reached the point where they absolutely must die.”
Fahai chuckled softly.
“Whether the Buddha punishes them or not, that is the Buddha’s business. My duty is to send them to face the Buddha.”
Xuzhu was momentarily speechless, unable to refute.
Seeing this, Fahai merely sighed.
What a stubborn Little Monk.
Xuzhu was inherently kind, having cultivated on Shaoshi Mountain since childhood, immersed in Buddhist teachings for over twenty years.
To call him pedantic wouldn't be an exaggeration.
However, if this Little Monk were to discover his true identity in the future, and learn about what his birth parents did back then,
He wondered what he would think.
Looking at the scattered corpses on the ground, Fahai sighed softly: “Let’s go.”
Such a big commotion would likely attract local government officials soon.
He didn't want to get involved with the government.
Besides, he had more important things to do right now—opening the gift packages.
The people in the inn watched the two figures disappear into the distance, then looked at the scattered corpses of the Xingxiu Sect Disciples on the ground, shaking their heads and discussing.
“This time, Old Monster Ding is probably going to go crazy with anger.”
“Losing so many Disciples at once, especially that powerful Great Disciple who was on the innate ranking, Ding Chunqiu must be heartbroken.”
“Hmph, they brought this upon themselves. The Xingxiu Sect should have faced retribution long ago, for all the evil they committed daily.”
Some women covered their faces, saying with infatuation: “That handsome Little Master is truly amazing.”
“I wonder what his name is. So powerful, could he be an expert on the innate ranking?”
“Very likely. Zhaixing Zi was a well-known figure on the innate ranking, yet the Little Master dealt with him in one move.”
“It seems this Little Master is also among the innate ranking.”
This matter quickly spread with everyone's discussions.
The Xingxiu Sect was already a famous School in the Jianghu, with a terrible reputation, having committed all sorts of evil deeds that angered everyone.
But because Ding Chunqiu was in charge, many forces could only choose to endure.
They tacitly allowed its existence, letting them do as they pleased.
But now, the Xingxiu Sect had suffered a heavy blow.
Zhaixing Zi and a group of Disciples were actually all eradicated by a Monk.
It truly made everyone in the world cheer with delight!
Some even rumored that the battle was almost a one-sided crushing!
The group of Xingxiu Sect Disciples had no power to resist, being easily slain like grass!
And among them, Zhaixing Zi was an expert on the innate ranking!
He was in the Middle Stage Realm, with extraordinary strength, and his use of poison was even more exquisite.
But even after using his strongest ultimate technique, he was still no match for that Little Monk.
With one strike, he died on the spot!
He couldn't even withstand a single move!
This battle result shook the entire Martial Forest, with countless people discussing and speculating.
Who was he?
Which temple did he come from?
Such a powerful Monk could never be unknown!
Temples that could cultivate such Prodigies were few and far between in Buddhism!
It was even possible that he was already a new star on the innate ranking.
But when people intentionally searched, they found no such person on the innate ranking.
This left everyone feeling confused.
Could it be a ghost?
Or a new talent who just emerged from a famous temple?
Has another monster appeared in Buddhism?
Martial Artists couldn't help but exclaim.
Offending the Xingxiu Sect would likely lead to considerable trouble.
That Ding Chunqiu was narrow-minded and would never let the matter rest.
Although that Little Monk was a Genius, having provoked such a Devil Head, his outcome would likely not be optimistic.
If it were someone else, perhaps they could still maneuver a bit.
But Ding Chunqiu had always been sinister and ruthless; once he held a grudge, he would relentlessly pursue and kill.
