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

"See you later!"

The Wudang group left, and other martial arts practitioners also departed one after another.

Although they were not enemies of the Huashan Sect, they were still terrified of Yue Zhuoqun and dared not stay with him for long.

After everyone had left, Feng Buping finally spoke up and asked, "Sect Leader, what should we do with Zuo Lengchan and the Songshan Sect?"

After all, the Songshan Sect is one of the Five Sacred Mountains Sword Sects; we can't just wipe it out, can we?

But if he doesn't eliminate them, Zuo Lengchan will be at odds with Huashan at every turn, and letting them go feels unsettling.

"Yue Buqun, the feud between us was entirely instigated by me, Zuo, and has nothing to do with the disciples of the Songshan Sect."

"I, Zuo, am willing to atone with my death. Please, for the sake of our alliance, spare the disciples of Mount Song."

Having experienced defeat, terror, and utter despair, Zuo Lengchan had completely come to terms with it.

"Don't give me that 'alliance' nonsense. You haven't cared about it yourself, and you expect me to?"

Yue Zhuoqun pursed his lips.

His alliance is only for the Hengshan, Hengshan, and Taishan factions; Songshan is delusional!

"If you want me to let the Songshan disciples go, then hand over your Frost True Qi and Hidden Techniques."

The Frost Qi doesn't matter; if I get it, I'll just give it to the system to exchange for martial coins.

He was quite curious about this hidden technique.

I will definitely have to face Zhu Wushi in the future. If I obtain this technique, it might be very effective when facing the Absorption Technique.

Zuo Lengchan's eyes widened suddenly: "You... how do you know about these two mental cultivation techniques?"

He had used his Frostbite True Qi a few times in public, and he could accept it when Yue Buqun found out.

He had never told anyone about the hidden techniques and secret methods, so how could Yue Buqun have revealed even the names?

"Heh, you don't need to know that."

Zuo Lengchan stared at him for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly: "If I hand over my martial arts, will you really let the Songshan disciples go?"

"Not only will I spare them, but I will also ensure that the Songshan tradition will not be extinguished and that it will remain one of the Five Sacred Mountains Sword Sects in the future."

"Then who will take over the position of sect leader?"

"That is a problem. All the masters of the Songshan Sect are dead, so we can't just pick any junior disciple to take over."

How about this, I'll let Senior Brother Feng Buping temporarily serve as the head of the Songshan Sect for twenty years.

"Twenty years later, when the disciples of the Songshan Sect have grown up, we will return the position of sect leader to them."

Zuo Lengchan's breath hitched, and he almost cursed in anger.

If Feng Buping temporarily assumes the position of head of the Songshan Sect, then wouldn't Songshan become a branch of your Huashan Sect?

But no matter how unwilling he was, he couldn't utter a word of rebuttal.

Becoming a puppet is better than being wiped out on the spot.

We can only continue to hope that the younger generation will be more capable and be able to regain the initiative in the future.

"Okay, I hope you'll keep your promise."

After handing over his martial arts manual, Zuo Lengchan indeed chose to commit suicide to atone for his sins.

Under Yue Zhuoqun's arrangement, Feng Buping took over the Songshan Sect and became its acting leader.

[Ding! The progress of the Huashan Sect's mission to reclaim its position as leader of the Five Mountains Alliance has been increased to 70%.]

Rewards include 200 Inner Strength Points, 100 Martial Coins, 3 Luck Points, one Perfection Scroll, and system space increased to four cubic meters.

"Hiss, system, why do I feel like your rewards are getting weaker and weaker?" Upon hearing the system's reward notification, Yue Zhuoqun frowned deeply.

In the beginning, I could easily get system rewards for doing anything that was beneficial to the development of Huashan.

Later, these rewards became less and less frequent, with large rewards only appearing when the mission progressed.

This time, however, as the mission progressed, the rewards also decreased, and even the martial arts manuals were gone.

[As the host's strength increases, the difficulty of the system rewards will naturally increase accordingly.]

Okay, you're the system, you have the final say.

Yue Zhuoqun pursed his lips helplessly.

I gave it the Frost Qi and the Hidden Skill Secret Technique, exchanged them for 40 Martial Coins, and used a Great Mastery Proficiency Scroll to learn the Hidden Skill Secret Technique.

I still have three scrolls left that I haven't used since I reached the Great Proficiency level. I'll use one of them today.

Once you've improved your proficiency, you can activate it using its unique movement method.

The immense internal energy in his dantian instantly surged into all parts of his body and truly disappeared.

However, this martial art also has a major drawback: when concealing one's internal energy, one cannot use it either.

Once activated, the stealth effect immediately disappears.

"I just don't know how effective it will be in practice. How about we wait until things at Shaolin are over and then go find Ren Woxing to test it out?"

……

Three days later, Yue Zhuoqun slowly stepped onto the steps in front of Shaolin Temple!

Chapter 69 Those who block my way shall die

Yue Zhuoqun slowly stepped onto the stairs, but the Shaolin gate was tightly closed.

Yue Zhuoqun chanted his inner energy: "Fang Zheng, I sent Kong back to deliver a message three days ago, why haven't you opened the door to welcome him yet?"

The sound was calm, but with the support of internal energy, it spread far and wide, even causing the temple bells to vibrate and ring.

But after more than ten seconds, no one opened the door.

"Now you want to shut yourself off and become a coward?"

If this resource accidentally infringes upon your rights, please notify us and delete it in time.

Yue Zhuoqun smiled coldly, raised his palm, and a vortex of internal energy condensed.

Bang!

Wow!

The cyclone struck the gleaming golden plaque, shattering it instantly and sending it crashing onto the steps in front of the door.

"Squeak!"

Wow…

The gates of Shaolin Temple finally opened from the inside, and a large group of disciples wielding staffs poured out.

Leading the charge were eighteen powerful Shaolin monks, their muscles bulging and shimmering with golden light.

"Ha, you guys really are asking for trouble."

"Yue Buqun, Shaolin is a sacred Buddhist site, not a place you can trespass on. Get out of here at once!" the leading monk shouted angrily, his facial muscles twitching.

In nearly two hundred years, Yue Zhuoqun was the first person to provoke Shaolin Temple and smash the temple gate plaque, something that had never happened before in hundreds of years.

"Hahaha, you Shaolin monks are really unreasonable."

Just three days ago, he was leading a group of people who wanted to lock me up in a temple and make me practice Buddhism for ten years.

Now that I've come in person, not only are they refusing me entry to the temple, but they're also trying to drive me away.

Your hypocritical, bullying attitude is disgusting.

The monks' faces were flushed, burning with fever, yet they still uttered:

“You slaughtered dozens of fellow martial artists in the Songshan Sect Square, your hands are stained with blood, you are no longer worthy to enter my Shaolin Temple of Compassion.”

"What a sophistry! It's just a pity that I, Yue Buqun, have always preferred to settle things with my fists. Today, I'm determined to enter Shaolin Temple!" Yue Zhuoqun put his right hand behind his back and stepped into the temple.

"Stop him!"

Bang!

The eighteen monks slammed their staffs down on the ground, surrounding Yue Zhuoqun.

Shaolin Eighteen Arhats Formation!

However, Yue Zhuoqun smiled calmly and did not stop walking.

hum!

The air churned as eighteen sticks simultaneously slammed down on his head, forming a net.

Shaolin has been the leader of the martial arts world for so many years, and its foundation is truly formidable.

Any one of these eighteen people would be considered a master in the martial arts world, and the power of the Arhat Formation they formed was astonishing.

Even before the stick touched him, the swirling wind it stirred up carried a powerful sense of oppression, making his cheeks sting.

A glint flashed in Yue Zhuoqun's eyes, and he suddenly raised his right hand, creating a spiral of energy above his head.

Bang!
