Zongwu: Rebellion against Shaolin Temple and joining the Hehuan Sect

The Eighteen Bronze Men Formation is well-known in the martial arts world. It is composed of eighteen monks from the Shaolin Temple who are highly skilled in martial arts, and each of them practices the Vajra Indestructible Kung Fu.

The Vajra Indestructible Divine Art has three levels: Copper Skin, Iron Bones, and Golden Body.

The Eighteen Arhats that make up the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation have all cultivated the Vajra Indestructible Magical Art to the bronze skin stage.

Therefore, the Eighteen Arhats Formation was named the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation.

In Shaolin Temple, any monk who wants to go down the mountain must pass the test of the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation.

Those who attempt to pass the level are in great danger of death, and many disciples will never be able to pass the level successfully in their entire life.

The Eighteen Arhats practiced the Vajra Indestructible Art. With the combined strength of the eighteen people, it can be said that it is basically impossible to pass without the strength of the second level of the innate realm.

The Eighteen Bronze Men Formation is divided into seven levels, with the difficulty increasing gradually in numbers of three.

First floor, 1 bronze man,

The second floor, 3 bronze figures,

The third floor, 6 bronze men,

The fourth floor, 9 bronze men,

The fifth floor, 12 bronze men,

The sixth floor, 15 bronze men,

The seventh floor, 18 bronze figures,

The long-standing legend of the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation in the martial arts world does not always involve the Eighteen Arhats.

However, the most valuable challenge is naturally to pass the bronze man formation composed of eighteen real arhats.

Whoever has passed through the formation of eighteen bronze men is not famous all over the world.

It is said that Zhang Sanfeng, the famous founder of the Wudang Sect, once broke through the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation.

There are two ways to open the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation:

The first one is that ordinary disciples who want to go down the mountain freely can apply to break into the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation.

After passing it, your strength is certified and you will have a certain ability to protect yourself when going down the mountain.

In this case, the bronze men only act as teachers and may send out an arhat to test the strength of the disciples.

At most three Arhats, and they will not kill you, just stop when you have enough.

This is what happened to the eldest senior brother who broke into the bronze man formation before. He was besieged by three Arhats and was quickly defeated.

As for the second type, the disciple who violated the precepts was punished and wanted to rebel against Shaolin.

If you break into the Eighteen Bronze Men at this time, the Eighteen Arhats will definitely be dispatched in the end.

The disciples who entered the formation would have their martial arts skills destroyed, or even be beaten half to death, or even have their limbs disabled.

After all, those who could pass the Eighteen Bronze Men were all high-ranking Shaolin monks and the abbots of various temples.

It is impossible to achieve this goal based on the disciple's age and cultivation level alone.

Therefore, when Xu Kun proposed to break into the Eighteen Bronze Men Formation, many Shaolin disciples thought that Xu Kun was overestimating his own abilities and was too bold.

After all, in their eyes, Xu Kun's boy's skills had been broken and his skills had seriously declined. Not to mention the Eighteen Bronze Men, even the disciples who had been in the sect for two and a half years had more profound skills than Zhiyin.

Of course, just because the speculation is reasonable doesn’t mean it’s necessarily the case.

......

In the back mountain of Shaolin Temple, where the Eighteen Bronze Men are located, an old monk in hemp clothes and with white eyebrows is sitting cross-legged on a platform in front of the mountain gate, with the road down the mountain behind him.

Of course, before that, there was a mountain gate made up of eighteen bronze men, blocking the way for people going down the mountain.

At this moment, the back mountain is already crowded with people.

The disciples of Shaolin Temple were scattered all over the back mountain like ants, not for any other reason but to join in the fun. After all, it had been a long time since anyone dared to break into the formation of Eighteen Bronze Men.

In the open space in front of the formation, Xu Kun stood tall and straight in the center, and next to him were Yuan Zhen, Chen Youliang and others.

"Uncle Kongxiang, the unlawful disciple Zhiyin violated the precepts of adultery and refused to obey the precepts. He wanted to leave the mountain and return to secular life, and even injured his fellow disciples."

Yuan Zhen put his hands together, bent his body slightly, bowed his head and said humbly,

"Please, uncle, open the bronze man formation and punish this lunatic."

The third-level innate monk Kong Xiang smiled slightly, turned his gaze to Xu Kun and said:

"Disciple knows the cause, just as Master Yuanzhen said!"

Xu Kun said expressionlessly: "That's about right. Anyway, I don't want to be a Shaolin disciple anymore. Master, please let me down the mountain quickly."

Although he wanted to be in the limelight, Xu Kun knew that Shaolin Temple was full of hidden talents and there must be some experts there. After all, the tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

To defeat the enemy without fighting is of course the best outcome.

As soon as these words came out, the disciples around him began to boil like boiling water.

"I thought Zhi Yin was so confident, but it turns out he was scared to death."

"You say you have no fear, but you just want your uncle to go easy on me."

"Slut, your uncle-master already knows about you, and you still want to get away with it unscathed."

"Did this IQ disappear along with my virginity?"

"It turns out that a dead duck's mouth is indeed hard, but when it is alive, its mouth is still soft."

......

Kongxiang listened to Zhiyin's words and was not surprised, just shook his head slightly.

Whenever they come before the bronze man formation, their acting skills vary.

There are people who curse loudly

There are tears

There are impatient

There are flatterers

There are scared pee

All these things are common to people in the world and are not surprising.

"In that case, let's see who's the real one." Xu Kun waved his clothes and prepared for battle.

"You pervert, I didn't expect you to still have so much strength even though your virgin skills were broken. You must have practiced evil skills." The injured Zhiguo cursed while holding the railing.

"Boy, wait and see how you die. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you defeated me in the post-natal realm." Chen Youliang stared at Xu Kun fiercely.

"I didn't want to do anything unnecessary. Let's just take it as a fun thing. There's nothing interesting in this deep forest." Yuan Zhen had a blank expression on his face, but he had some bad thoughts in his mind.

"The Eighteen Bronze Men Formation, set up the formation!" The divine monk Kongxiang didn't waste any words.

With a wave of his hand, the mountain gate slowly opened and a figure walked out.

He looked ferocious, with a shiny forehead, a burly figure, and holding a steel stick in his hand. He was none other than the Arhat Subduing the Dragon.

"Junior brother Jianglong, I know that you violated the temple rules and injured your fellow disciples. We must end this quickly." Kong Xiang passed the message.

Upon hearing this, the Dragon-Subduing Arhat shook the iron rod in his hand, and then attacked Xu Kun with the force of a mountain.

It was so fast that it reached an inch above Xu Kun's right arm in the blink of an eye.

"Okay, let's beat this rapist to death. Let's break his arm first and see if he continues to do evil in the future." The crowd who were hoping for Xu Kun's death shouted outside the venue.

"Amitabha, I cannot bear to see this." Some timid monks closed their eyes to avoid seeing the bloody scene.

Amidst countless complex looks and emotions, the iron rod actually stopped an inch above Xu Kun's right arm and could not move forward any further.

Countless eyes followed the iron rod to Xu Kun's shoulder, and saw a white hand holding the iron rod.

The overwhelming momentum of the Dragon-Subduing Arhat was also stopped at this moment.

Before anyone could react, Xu Kun grabbed the iron rod and used both hands to break it into two pieces instantly.

"Is this the limit of the Bronze Man Formation's ability? Let all eighteen of them attack together." Xu Kun threw out the broken stick and spoke arrogantly.

"Hiss." Everyone took a breath of cold air.

"When did Zhiyin become so powerful? If this hit me..."

“Fortunately, I didn’t confront Zhiyin before, otherwise it would not be the iron rod that was broken, but my own arm.” A Shaolin disciple who was about to bully Zhiyin thought to himself.

"This man's martial arts are so powerful, it seems there is no hope of revenge." Chen Youliang clenched his fists, and the shame just now surged into his heart.

"This martial arts feels familiar. Let me think carefully, is it the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?" Yuan Zhen's eyes turned cunningly, thinking carefully about what kind of martial arts Xu Kun was performing.

After hearing Xu Kun's arrogant words, it was unbearable. Seventeen figures appeared behind the formation gate, each holding an iron rod.

Looking closely, the average person is at the peak of the acquired realm, and has cultivated to the bronze skin level.

The Arhat Subduing the Dragon was also a veteran, and as soon as they started fighting, he realized that Xu Kun was a trained martial artist. He immediately stepped back several steps and picked up another spare iron rod.

Immediately, the eighteen bronze men surrounded Xu Kun in the center and kept spinning in circles.

War is imminent!
