Special War God

Kou Zhanyong said with emotion: "I actually ended up in a tie with Beibi! Although it was just a small test at the beginning, it is the final battle, and we must win to show our due dignity. Hao Nanda, this match is up to you!"

A monk with a round face and a fat body responded: "Amitabha, I will help Commander Kou win this game!"

Several years ago, a cultivator who called himself Mahayana Maitreya appeared in the West. He brought his disciples to the Bai Kingdom to preach the Dharma. He gained the trust of Bai Wuxian and established the Maitreya Temple on Baixiang Mountain in the western suburbs of the Bai Kingdom's capital. Mahayana Maitreya was thus canonized as the national teacher by Bai Wuxian.

This Hao Nanda was the direct disciple who came to the Bai Kingdom with Mahayana Maitreya. Although his cultivation had only reached the level of Buddha, he was proficient in Buddhism and had many unfathomable magical powers and secret techniques.

The levels of practice of Western sects are different from those of other countries that practice Taoism, but they are also divided into four major stages: Buddha, Arhat, Venerable, and Ancient Buddha, which roughly correspond to the realms of Qi Refining, Spirit Transformation, Return to Void, and Harmony with the Tao in various countries.

Hao Nanda walked forward slowly, clasped his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name, then said: "I am Hao Nanda, a disciple of the White Kingdom's national teacher Mahayana Maitreya. I am fighting on behalf of the king's teacher. I would like to ask which warrior in the Chifang army can give me some advice."

After he finished speaking, he did not look at the soldiers of the Chifang Army again, but closed his eyes slightly, with his hands still clasped together, but his whole body seemed to merge into this world, giving people a feeling of both reality and illusion, showing a state of mind called "Brahma and I are one", meaning that Brahma is me and I am Brahma, which is similar to the concept of the unity of man and nature in the world of cultivation, and belongs to an extremely profound state of mind of cultivation.

The Chifang Army fell into silence again. Faced with the appearance of Hao Nanda, although not as creepy as "Bai Wuchang", he seemed more troublesome and frightened the Chifang Army for a while.

Liu Dabazi looked around but couldn't find a suitable candidate to play. He smiled bitterly and said, "We already have one win and one draw. Even if we lose this round, it won't shake our morale. Qiu..."

As the saying goes, "Even if you lose, don't panic." Just when Qiu Butong was about to be arranged to fight, a firm voice suddenly came: "I will fight this round!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Xia Zhongnan stepping forward.

Liu Dabazi quickly dissuaded him: "Xiao Fei, why are you joining in the fun? Go back now!"

He knew that Xia Zhongnan's strength was not in fighting. It was because of Xia Zhongnan's planning that the three armies of "abandoned pawns" could repeatedly achieve extraordinary success. If Xia Zhongnan made a mistake, he could not imagine what kind of dilemma the three armies would face in the future.

Xia Zhongnan replied in a relaxed tone: "General, don't worry. I may not lose against this monk. Even if there is an accident, the arrangement of the three armies will be left to Lu Mingyuan. He can handle it properly."

Liu Dabazi asked in surprise: "Are you sure you can deal with that monk?"

Only then did he remember that in the recruit selection competition, Xia Zhongnan defeated Diwu Dechang in his first fight, and seemed to be quite capable. Later, he was always impressed by Xia Zhongnan's extraordinary abilities in other aspects, but he forgot that what impressed him in the first place was Xia Zhongnan's outstanding performance in a one-on-one duel...

Xia Zhongnan did not look back, but looked at Hao Nanda with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The chances of winning may not be great, but I have the courage to fight."

The reason why he decided to start a battle with Hao Nanda in the immortal battlefield was that he valued the other party's supreme level of cultivation, rather than being sure that he could defeat the other party.

Basically, Xia Zhongnan and Gu Xiuzhang are both of the same kind, and they hold the same belief: only with profound immortal cultivation can one stand at the top of the world. The reason why he joined the Chifang Immortal Army and led 13 immortal brigades to survive through dangers was really due to the situation.

After all, only by surviving first can one pursue a higher realm. In this process, he will not miss any opportunity to strengthen his own cultivation. In his eyes, Hao Nantuo in front of him is a sharpening stone on the road of cultivation. Only by fighting life and death with such a strong enemy can he gain a deeper level of cultivation experience.

Suddenly, a slender hand grabbed his sleeve tightly, trying to pull him back. Xia Zhongnan turned around and found that it was Xu Qian.

Xia Zhongnan responded in a rather cold tone: "Auntie, what's the matter?"

Xu Qian's eyes were slightly red, and she said anxiously: "You are not allowed to go! You must stay!"

Xia Zhongnan was furious. He struggled hard to get rid of Xu Qian's attempts to keep him. He then shouted, "Miss Xu, you can laugh and scold on weekdays, but at this critical moment concerning the discipline and dignity of the Chifang Immortal Army, how can you be so willful and reckless?"

After saying this, he no longer paid attention to Xu Qian, tightly grasped the jet-black iron spear in his hand, and resolutely stepped into the battlefield.

Xu Qian had never seen Xia Zhongnan so angry before. She was shocked by his aura and was at a loss. With tears in her eyes, Xia Zhongnan's back gradually moved away from her sight. She had always been by Xia Zhongnan's side, watching the duels between heroes. She found it funny to see Liu Dabazi provoke Kou Zhanyong; she was excited to see Gu Xiuzhan slash She Toyota with a knife; she was moved to tears when she saw Mao Zizhuang injuring his ears in exchange for a draw; and the profound artistic conception of "Brahma and I are one" displayed by Hao Nandao was her first experience. As she was concentrating on watching, she heard Xia Zhongnan shout "I will fight this battle" and wanted to step forward to fight. She instinctively stepped forward, intending to stop Xia Zhongnan from taking risks.

Unexpectedly, her actions angered Xia Zhongnan and led to a public scolding.

Xu Qian felt wronged and started crying. She was deeply worried about Xia Zhongnan's safety, because Hao Nanda was too powerful and she didn't want him to die.

Liu Dabazi glared at her with dissatisfaction. He originally wanted to dissuade Xia Zhongnan, but after she interrupted him, Xia Zhongnan had already walked away, leaving him unable to respond for a moment.

At this time, Xia Zhongnan had become the focus of the whole audience. He had thrown away his previous distracting thoughts and walked towards Hao Nantuo calmly. He held the black iron spear with one hand in his right hand, hiding the spear body behind his back, with the spear tip slanting into the ground and the tail of the spear exposed above his left shoulder. He looked particularly relaxed and free. In his mind, the spear was known as the king of all weapons. He remembered that the ancient Chinese Tianshu had repeatedly recorded: a general riding a white horse and waving a silver spear, charging back and forth in the enemy's formation; another general with a cold face holding a cold spear, taking the head of the enemy general in the chaos of the army... Those vivid names and heroic images of the characters flashed through his mind one by one.

Xia Zhongnan thought to himself: "My Chinese spear master and his disciples must live up to the majesty of the spear in this foreign land!"

The people in both camps who were concentrating on watching Xia Zhongnan were suddenly stunned, as if he had traveled from another time and space, and landed here with an elusive aura, like a breeze passing by their ears, easily washing away the artistic conception of "Brahma and Atman as one" set up by Hao Nanda without a trace.

Hao Nanda revealed his mortal body again and stood in place. He put his hands together, as if he was saluting Xia Zhongnan.

The situation was extremely strange. The White Country soldiers who had previously firmly believed that Hao Nanda would win could not help but waver in their confidence.
