I'm really a villain

For a world-weary and wicked monk, his path is the unity of demon and Buddha.

He believed in the truth of Buddhism, even considering it the ladder for the growth of all races.

However, he also did not approve of the methods Buddhism used to educate people.

Instead, they prefer the methods of the demon race.

Ultimately, he embarked on a path that combined Buddhism and demonic influence.

The so-called unity of Buddha and demon means using the methods of the demon race to carry out Buddhist activities.

To put it nicely, it's using ruthless methods while having a compassionate heart.

Therefore, the Dao spirit he condensed was mainly composed of nine Buddha statues.

These nine Buddha statues represent his joys, sorrows, and emotions, as well as his seven emotions and six desires.

These can be described as nine incredibly powerful Dao spirits.

Xu Ziming felt that this spirit was quite similar to the path of destiny he was walking together with.

True destiny is the core essence of a person.

Transform everything you've cultivated into your true destiny.

However, as Xu Ziming's strength grew, he became less reliant on his true destiny.

Now, seeing the appearance of this spirit, he couldn't help but become even more interested.

Because this spirit is essentially an advanced version of the true destiny.

It is stronger than destiny, but the principles are similar in many ways.

This is the cultivation system created by the Immortal Saint.

Xu Ziming had to admit one thing.

That is, the Immortal Saint has gone much further on the path of cultivation than any of them.

The cultivation system he created is also an excellent path to verification.

However, at this moment, he no longer had time to observe or think too much.

Because the nine Buddha statues completely surrounded Xu Ziming and attacked with overwhelming force, as if they were capable of overturning rivers and seas and destroying the heavens and the earth.

In an instant, the rules shattered, the void collapsed, and it seemed as if the entire Qingcheng was about to be obliterated.

Seeing this, Yan Liben breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He still acknowledged the power of the misanthropic monk.

He is now imprisoned by Xu Ziming and can hardly move. If he wants to survive, he should pray that the world-weary evil monk can win.

They watched as the nine Buddha statues completely destroyed Xu Zimo.

However, the misanthropic monk did not relax.

After all, in a battle between strong individuals, even the slightest carelessness can lead to defeat.

At that moment, a surge of sword energy shot into the sky.

It transformed into a transparent pillar of light, illuminating all nine Buddha statues.

The beam of light condensed from the blade was so powerful it seemed to destroy the heavens and the earth, tearing apart the clouds in the sky.

It has a feeling of finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

Everyone in Qingcheng seemed to be drawn to this flash of sword light.

They all looked up.

The appearance of such terrifying sword energy within Qingcheng could not be ignored by anyone else.

"That's where those misanthropic monks and their gang are!"

When Lu Qingqiu and Bu Zhan Dao Ren saw this scene, they exchanged a glance and both saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.

I thought the misanthropic monk would be able to handle the situation there.

Looking back now, it seems like a bit of a naive assumption.

The Taoist Master Bu Zhan couldn't help but speak.

He said, "Why don't I go over and check, just in case something has happened?"

"Compared to that person, the most important thing at this stage is to defend Qingcheng."

Lu Qingqiu replied calmly.

"The Ember Organization is the real problem."

"If the city falls and the Ember Organization breaks in, we will all be doomed."

"As for that person, no matter how strong he is, he is still just one person."

Once we've dealt with the Ember organization, we'll trap him like a turtle in a jar.

"At most, we'll just let him be arrogant for a while."

The Taoist priest Bu Zhan also found this reasonable, so he stopped paying attention to the place.

……

Of course, at this moment, the world-weary monk was in utter despair.

Because he saw the towering sword aura.

It seemed as if it was beyond human power to resist.

Before the blade even struck, the nine Buddha statues around him were already obliterated by the terrifying blade energy.

"How about taking this blow?"

Xu Ziming laughed loudly.

He stood in the sky, his black hair moving without wind.

The surrounding void was shattered, and his aura filled the world.

"So what if he's a Buddha or a demon?"

"A local bricklayer, nothing special."

In an instant, with a wave of his hand...

The terrifying pillar of blades descended from the sky, its target none other than the world-weary, wicked monk.

This strike was Xu Zimo's culmination of skill.

He concentrated all the sword intent he had cultivated throughout his life into it.

You can imagine how powerful it is.

"boom"

At that moment, the world in the eyes of the misanthropic monk completely disappeared.

All that remained in his sight was this one slash.

In the vast expanse of heaven and earth, all things fell silent.

"I think."

Before he could finish uttering the word "defeat," the long blade fell, completely annihilating him and his Dao spirit.

A massive mushroom cloud billowed up from the sky.

All the surrounding buildings collapsed.

Yan Liben watched this scene and felt a chill run down his spine, followed by a sense of dread.

Because the world-weary evil monk had already vanished into thin air, no trace of his presence could be sensed.

This is clearly dead beyond dead.

As the dust gradually settled, Xu Ziming's figure slowly walked over, carrying the Overlord Shadow.

Yan Liben took a deep breath, and a faint smile gradually appeared on his previously stiff face.

"There is something easy to say, there is something easy to say."

Just then, applause suddenly came from the side.

"Looks like I've found a great partner!"

A figure slowly walked over.

This person was Fang Zheng.

Previously, he represented the Ember organization and cooperated with Xu Ziming.

In fact, Xu Ziming had sensed Fang Zheng's aura when he was fighting the world-weary evil monk.

However, he remained calm and did not rush to expose the other party.

Fang Zheng has now taken the initiative to step forward.

"Who are you?" Yan Liben looked at Fang Zheng, a strange sense of unease creeping over him.

“You can call me Fang Zheng,” Fang Zheng replied with a smile.

He seemed completely unconcerned about his identity.

"One of the Eight Gods of Ember?"

Yan Liben immediately realized what was happening and asked.

"Oh? Looks like I do have some fame," Fang Zheng replied with a smile.

"The highest authority in the Ember Organization, second only to the Eight Guardians, how could I pretend not to know him?"

Yan Liben was startled, but he hid it well.

He asked, "Did you orchestrate this attack?"

It's important to know that the Ember Organization's operations extend far beyond the part that attacked Qingcheng.

Their strength and their ability to conceal it are both extremely profound.

Because the native creatures of the Undying Planet have been extremely xenophobic in recent years.

Meanwhile, the powerful individuals from other worlds who came to the Undying Star, drawn by its reputation, have gradually connected with each other over the years.

To put it nicely, it's about sticking together for warmth.

The sheer size of these organizations over the years has become alarming.

Among them, Ember is one of the three strongest organizations.

Yan Liben naturally knew more about it.

At this moment, Fang Zheng turned his gaze to Xu Ziming.

Said with a smile.

"Looks like I chose a really amazing partner!"

“Likewise,” Xu Ziming replied calmly.

Are you confident about today's attack?
