Swords emerge from Mount Hua, sweeping across the heavens from the world of Swordsman.

The Immortal Sanctuary?

-That title is way too impressive!

Yue Zhuoqun was excited and it took him a long time to calm down before he began to examine the two martial arts manuals that had been awarded as a reward.

The level of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms is only superior, but this martial art has an extremely high upper limit, progressing from the outside to the inside.

It can be said that the greater a person's strength, the more terrifying their combat power.

When used by someone at the Innate Realm, its power is in no way inferior to that of a mortal-level martial art.

Moreover, practicing the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique can also enhance one's physical strength.

This is a martial art that he can use for a long time.

As for the Scripture of Wisdom that governs all laws, it also has quite a background.

This is a martial art passed down from the Ming Cult's Great Ming Sect Master in the world of Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty.

Unlike ordinary martial arts that focus on the exertion of one's own strength, it involves the application of the Dao.

As the name suggests, it encompasses all laws and embraces all rivers.

Once mastered, one can manipulate air, water, sand, and vegetation to attack, emphasizing the art of switching between the real and the illusory, which is also highly beneficial for enhancing one's spiritual power.

Unfortunately, the current situation doesn't allow him to study it carefully. With so many people watching, he can't just stand there in a daze.

……

I went back to my hometown today and it happened to be snowing heavily, so this is the only chapter today.

Chapter 156 The Battle of the Primordial Beginnings

"To be able to mobilize such a range of heaven and earth power upon entering the Innate Realm, your martial arts talent is truly astonishing."

Seeing Yue Zhuoqun emerge from his breakthrough state, the Sweeper Monk sighed.

Yue Zhuoqun smiled calmly. The power of heaven and earth within a forty-meter radius was the limit of his qi extension, but not the limit of his strength.

Before achieving a breakthrough, one can use the Supreme Longevity Technique to forcefully sever the void.

After breaking through the innate realm and forging an innate spiritual body, and after the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique broke through to the tenth level, he could use his physical strength alone to control the void, and the range of control was the same as the range of calling upon the power of heaven and earth.

It can be said that he can suppress enemies of the same level by taking the initiative.

When fighting him, only he can control the heavens and earth within a forty-meter radius, unless the opponent can also use force to control the sky, thus creating a mutual restraint.

"Why would the master help me break through?" Yue Zhuoqun asked in confusion.

He had just targeted Shaolin; several high-ranking monks of the Xuan generation had their internal energy drained and were rendered useless.

"When I was young, I met Xiaoyaozi. You are the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect. Helping you break through is a good deed," the sweeping monk explained with a smile. He then glanced at the crowd and said, "This is Shaolin after all. It is not appropriate to kill too much here. I would like to ask you to spare the lives of Elder Xiao and Elder Murong."

Yue Zhuoqun immediately understood what he meant.

The Sweeper Monk had been watching Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo secretly study Shaolin martial arts in the Sutra Pavilion all these years.

Knowing full well that the two's failure to practice Buddhism and their forced mastery of the Seventy-Two Arts would cause hidden dangers, he never showed up to warn them.

He intervened to save the two men from their impending death at Yue Zhuoqun's hands, but only to use Buddhist teachings to resolve their hostility and subdue them to serve Shaolin.

"Because of these two people, countless innocent people have died. If we spare their lives, where will their innocent and unjustly killed souls go to seek justice?"

“The old monk can convert them, and they can stay in Shaolin for the rest of their lives, reciting the Rebirth Sutra and the Diamond Sutra every day to repent and pray.”

"There's no such thing as a free lunch."

Yue Zhuoqun's eyes flashed: "Out of respect for the master, I can give them a chance to live, provided that you can withstand my killing move."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Zhuoqun pointed his finger out instantly.

Chichi~

Two fiery sword energies ripped through the void, heading straight for Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo's hearts.

Both of them had a significant amount of their internal energy drained, and their strength had greatly diminished. They would definitely not be able to dodge this fatal blow on their own.

However, the Sweeper Monk flashed and appeared in front of the two, his palms pressed together, creating a three-foot-high wall of energy in front of him.

Thud, snap!

The fiery sword energy shot into the qi wall, shattering it instantly. The sweeping monk, holding Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo with both hands, slid backward for more than ten meters before regaining his footing.

Yue Zhuoqun smirked and threw another punch.

His real purpose in coming to Shaolin was to break through his cultivation level, and now he has achieved that goal.

As for the grudges and affections of Xiao Yuanshan and others, we can completely leave them alone.

This was merely an excuse to provoke the Sweeping Monk into making a move; after all, it would be a pity not to test his skills against such a master.

The fist technique is divided into two forms. The left fist uses the "Unpredictable Universe" technique, which uses strange power to restrain the Sweeper Monk's movements. The right fist uses the "Great Demon Hand" technique, which sends layers of fist shadows crashing towards the Sweeper Monk's chest.

As he launched his attack, his blood boiled, and his powerful force suppressed the surrounding void.

With a push of his hands, the Sweeping Monk sent Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo off the battlefield. He then tried to mobilize the power of heaven and earth by waving his arms, but suddenly found that the power of heaven and earth was suppressed and beyond his control.

"To forcefully choke the sky?!"

In his astonishment, the sweeping monk could only rely on his own internal energy to fight back against Yue Zhuoqun's fists.

Bang!

With a muffled thud, a terrifying force spread out, the ground beneath his feet shattered and collapsed, and his body was once again violently pushed back.

But he stomped his feet heavily on the ground, regaining his balance. His eyes flashed with electricity, and he roared, "Again!"

He could draw upon the power of heaven and earth to a greater extent than Yue Zhuoqun, so he borrowed power from distant space to strengthen himself.

His coarse monk's robe billowed, and distorted light and shadow appeared in the void. He unleashed his Shaolin martial arts, and his energy transformed into invisible blades, tearing the ground open with cracks, sending dust and gravel flying.

This outburst of divine power affected all directions.

The martial arts practitioners around them stood far enough away, yet they were still oppressed, their faces turning pale and their blood churning.

Even worse, blood flowed from the mouth, nose, eyes, and ears, the mind was ringing, and the person was on the verge of collapse.

Fortunately, the Sweeper Monk's target was only Yue Zhuoqun. He released the rampaging power and then immediately withdrew it, compressing it all into his hands and turning it into a blur as he rushed towards Yue Zhuoqun.

The Sweeper Monk's moves were not as profound and exquisite as Yue Zhuoqun's; most of them were just rudimentary moves.

But these moves were refined from Shaolin's unique skills, possessing the ingenious ability to turn the ordinary into the extraordinary.

The greatest truths are the simplest, and the same applies to martial arts.

It's not that complicated moves are powerful; for someone at the level of the Sweeper Monk, even a simple punch is enough to split mountains and shatter rocks.

Moreover, unlike Kumārajīva, who was obsessed with martial arts, he was a person who truly comprehended Buddhism to an extremely high level.

The punch was not only incredibly powerful, but it also carried a compassionate, radiant light that captivated the viewer's spirit.

Just one glance was enough to evoke an impulse to grasp the true essence of Buddhism, to submit to it, and to take refuge in the Buddhist path.

The Shaolin disciples behind them were already sitting upright on the ground, chanting Buddhist scriptures with devout expressions.

Some members of other gangs also couldn't control their impulses and knelt down to worship Buddha.

Yue Zhuoqun instantly broke free from this mental manipulation, his eyes gleaming with seven-colored divine light, and softly proclaimed, "Buddha is the Way!"

These four words may not be loud or catchy, but they evoke a feeling of warmth and comfort.

When these words reached the ears of the assembled heroes, they were no less than thunderclaps or sudden enlightenment. The true Buddhist teachings contained in the Sweeping Monk's boxing style were shattered, and they all came to their senses.

They retreated dozens of meters in fear before looking back at the field.

Yue Zhuoqun and the Sweeper Monk clashed, their fists and feet clashing repeatedly.

The two attacked faster and faster, transforming into streaks of light as they chased and leaped across the arena, making it impossible to discern their specific moves. Only the ripples they created indicated that this was a fierce and unpredictable battle.

"Innate level, is this the terrifying power of an innate level cultivator?"

Xiao Yuanshan, Murong Bo, Kumārajīva and other masters all had shock in their eyes.

They have always been arrogant, believing that their martial arts skills are powerful enough.

Seeing the scene of Yue Zhuoqun fighting the Sweeper Monk, I realized how narrow-minded I was.

Yue Zhuoqun had already exchanged more than a hundred blows with the Sweeper Monk. They seemed evenly matched, but in reality, Yue Zhuoqun was becoming more and more comfortable with the fight.

At the beginning, he was not yet proficient in using the power of heaven and earth, and needed to use force to restrict the power of the sweeping monk.

At this moment, having completely mastered the power of heaven and earth, he could command it as if it were his own arm. He simply stopped using force to suppress the void and let the Sweeper Monk fight him with all his might.

hum!

The void trembled violently, and all the power of heaven and earth within a radius of fifty meters gathered on the Sweeper Monk, transforming into a vortex of power that distorted the void.

He suddenly struck out with his palm, the vortex of power condensing into a golden palm of light, which pressed down!

Chapter 157 The Heavenly Dragon ends, laughing at the gate of space.

The Buddha's light shone brightly, and the world was suddenly illuminated.

The sweeping monk's move was so powerful that it made Yue Zhuoqun feel a sense of crisis, as if the heavens and earth were collapsing and there was nowhere to escape.
