Signing Into Immortal Martial World - Chapter 35

Chapter 35: I Reign Supreme Over Heaven And Earth

Moro, the King of Yakshas had a violent nature, to begin with.

With him covered in blood, he looked like a terrible Asura. It made him look extra scary.

Before Chen Chaoen beside the Emperor of Zhou could act, Master Yuanhui suddenly opened his eyes.

They could not see how he moved. He stood upright and moved instantaneously to block Moro right before him.

“The Heavenly Dragon Temple has a total of seventy-two ultimate techniques. The Great Displacement Technique ranks forty-nine.”

Marquis Zhao Kai beside the emperor commented right on time.

“This movement technique’s essence lies in the movement of one’s heart. Heart leads, intent, and intent, in turn, leads the body, making one’s trajectory extremely unpredictable.”

The emperor frowned.

While he was listening intently, he was also wondering where the Gandharva was.

No matter how brazen Moro might be, he should not dare to trespass into the imperial city to assassinate the emperor, right?

That was just asking for death!

Leaving aside the fact that the Heroes’ Hall had Marquis Zhao Kai and Master Yuanhui standing guard, there was still Chief Eunuch Chen Chaoen from the Ceremonial Directorate by his side. Moro, being merely at the Titan Stage, would not be able to take Chen Chaoen on.

“Amitabha. Benefactor Moro, please stop.”

Master Yuanhui had a skinny figure like that of an old dying tree.

“Heretic! Don’t try to stop me!”

Moro was like a madman, shouting out loud, “I’ll kill anyone in my path! KILL! KILL! KILL!”

As he shouted, his muscular body emitted seven halos!

It vaguely felt as though a terrible strength was suddenly bestowed on his body!

Boom!

Moro did not even bother to look and sent a palm strike forth!

The powerful force caused the air around it to produce a crackling sound.

Master Yuanhui did not move. His black and green monk robe fluttered in the wind and hugged tightly to his body.

The head of Prajna Hall did not back off. His kind and gentle expression suddenly change into one of fury.

“Benefactor, you’ve lost your senses!” Master Yuanhui bellowed forcefully.

His fragile body burst forth with titan-like strength and made a similarly powerful palm strike.

Crashing Stele Strike!

The technique ranked seventh out of the 72 techniques!

Bang!

With a thunderous boom, the sturdy ground before the Heroes’ Hall was filled with cracks that spread out like a spider’s web.

The foundations of the entire hall seemed to tremble!

At the point of their palm strikes collided, the air rippled like the surface of a pond, stirring up transparent waves that could be seen by the naked eye.

With the collision of two true Qis of similar domineering nature, it emitted a brilliant glow.

Master Yuanhui did not move at all, standing firmly like a huge deeply rooted tree.

Meanwhile, Moro resisted for a moment before appearing as though struck by lightning.

His body shook violently as though he was going to collapse.

He flew backward and crashed onto the ground.

“The Heavenly Dragon Temple’s Crashing Stele Strike is not only fierce and powerful. They also have a hidden technique to displace strength.”

Feeling bored, Marquis Zhao Kai took up the role of a commentator.

“It transforms one’s strength and true Qi into a millstone. In a fight, a single palm strike would immediately shave off one-third of the opponent’s strength. It’s immensely powerful!”

The emperor listened intently. He could not help but ask, “How many moves do you think the Vajrayana monk can endure?”

Marquis Zhao Kai contemplated for a moment before replying, “Around thirty moves.”

Although both were at the Titan Stage, any martial arts expert with a good eye could tell that Moro was no match for Master Yuanhui.

The latter was only one step away from breaking through to the eighth Mortal Stage of Spiritual Transformation.

He had already been vaguely touching upon the method to transform one’s spirit and manifest his will.

“Moro, King of Yakshas cultivates one of the eight main techniques of the Great Boundless Palace, the Seven Chakras Diamond Technique. That technique is a very advanced endurance training art.”

Seeing the emperor’s growing interest, Marquis Zhao Kai continued, “I’ve heard one needs to train this technique from a young age and start soaking in Golden Broth—a type of butter made with special methods.

“Rubbing that over the body would help strengthen the skin and make it tough as iron, giving one a natural physique beyond others.

“Other methods are also used in tandem to stimulate the muscles and strengthen one’s Qi.

“Finally, by unblocking the seven Vajrayana chakras, one would obtain miraculous strength.

“Because of that, ever since this Vajrayana monk graduated, he could still crush his enemies with his immense strength even if he met another expert at the same cultivation stage.

“It’s unfortunate that he’s run into Master Yuanhui. The head of Prajna Hall had long since completed his training and achieved the indestructible body.

“He has no weak point and his true Qi is pure and massive. Moro has lost his biggest advantage. His loss is just a matter of time.”

Along with Marquis Zhao Kai’s commentary, the two had already exchanged over a dozen moves, creating a massive scene.

Martial experts of the Titan Stage carried terrifying strength with their every move.

Thunderous strikes and cracking the ground beneath them, invisible blade-like waves rippled outward.

The massive true Qi of the two parties clashed continuously and emitted a bright light.

None were able to enter the area several dozen feet around them.

“Heretic! Stop meddling with my spirit!”

Moro was truly a Titan Stage expert. His body’s strength was unbelievable.

He was still able to get back on his feet after taking several palm and fist strikes from Master Yuanhui.

“This person’s mental state is in disarray. I’m afraid his mind is affected.”

Master Yuanhui had a profound understanding of Buddhist teachings.

He was only one step away from manifesting his martial will.

That was very close to the Spiritual Transformation Stage.

After several exchanges, he immediately realized Moro’s mental state was a mess and was beyond communication.

Master Yuanhui did not make a lethal blow. He extended his index and middle fingers, putting them together, and placed them between his brows.

Within the span of one thought, he shot out eight powerful prods!

The pure and vast true Qi within his body surged forth like a wave, enveloping Moro who had no attack patterns and only focused on brute force.

“The Trouble Dispelling Finger technique ranked at the twelfth place!”

Marquis Zhao Kai’s solemn face seemed to show some mild changes.

“This is an exquisite finger technique.

“Dispelling all troubles with a single prod. It’s a technique that utilizes the wisdom of supreme Zen to subdue an opponent’s will!”

Thonk thonk thonk thonk thonk thonk thonk thonk!

Before Marquis Zhao Kai could finish, eight muffled sounds rang out consecutively.

Master Yuanhui’s eight powerful prods landed on Moro’s body as though they were hitting a bell.

“What an amazing endurance training art! This unrivaled finger strength that can crack metal and stone is almost unable to seal his weak spots!”

Moro let out an enraged roar to the sky. The apertures on his body were destroyed by the Trouble Dispelling Finger. His domineering and fearsome true Qi rushed directly at his dantian.

The seven brilliant halos immediately dimmed.

The fearsome and burly man stumbled forward a few steps before blood welled up in his throat due to the reversed Qi flow.

“Benefactor Moro, I have sealed your cultivation.”

Master Yuanhui placed his hands together and said calmly, “Assaulting the imperial city, killing with martial arts, and spooking the emperor… they are all serious crimes!”

“Suffering is boundless. You need to redeem yourself. If you’re still stubborn, then the consequences will be dire.”

Master Yuanhui had a kind appearance once more, no longer showing the enraged expression he had earlier.

He knew that Moro came from the Great Boundless Palace and was one of the Phags-pa’s men.

If he died mysteriously within the Zhou Kingdom, that would most likely trigger a great conflict.

Kindness was at the core of a monk.

He acted first in order to avoid troubling Marquis Zhao Kai or the eunuch beside the emperor.

The martial arts of those two were like the scorching sun and the chilling winds of the abyss.

If Moro remained stubborn, he might not have come out alive.

“The great monk has a kind heart.”

Marquis Zhao Kai’s gaze flickered as he stood up slowly.

His broad shoulders seem to support the heavens, giving off an air of dominance as though he controlled everyone’s fate.

“However, it is still up to His Majesty to decide what to do with this person.”

The emperor looked down and saw Moro spat out two mouthfuls of blood. His face looked sickly and his aura was weak.

With his sea of Qi within his dantian sealed away, he was unable to utilize his strength and would no longer have the ability to take lives.

“I thought Benefactor Moro’s mental state was affected, therefore behaving as though he had deviated Qi flow, unable to identify friend from foe. That is why he would break into the imperial city in a rampage.”

Master Yuanhui faced the emperor and lowered his head slightly as he said, “He needs to be severely punished for his crimes! However, finding out the person pulling the strings is of higher priority!”

The Emperor of Zhou nodded and replied with a low voice, “The King of Yakshas is here but there’s no sign of the Gandharva.

“Today is the day of her challenge to Master Yuanhui. Why isn’t she here?!”

The kind-looking Master Yuanhui turned around once more.

He placed his fingers together and put them between his brows.

“Humbly I ask the World-Honored One to certify my vow to come back to the five turbid evil realms. As long as even one being has yet become a Buddha, I shall not enter Nirvana at death. Exalted hero with awesome strength, great kindness and compassion, search out and dispel even the subtlest doubts…”

Master Yuanhui recited the lines from the Buddhist scriptures.

With his supreme Zen spirit accumulated over the years, he activated the Trouble Dispelling Finger from the 72 ultimate techniques.

After that, quick as lightning, he pointed it at Moro.

Master Yuanhui wanted to find out what happened to Moro to make him lose himself and enter go into a rampage.

However…

The moment the Trouble Dispelling Finger touches Moro between the brows…

Boom!

Another unspeakably horrifying will rose out of the blue, catching them all off guard.

The calm and collected Master Yuanhui’s thin figure suddenly trembled violently like a raft in the stormy seas.

“I reign supreme over heaven and earth!”

In his terrified gaze, several blurred figures appeared one after another.
