Chapter 241 Negotiation Opportunity
Chapter 241 Negotiation Opportunity
Because of Zhu Fasheng's contribution, the Western Church spared no effort to give him two magical weapons, allowing him to have the strength to challenge the strong in the Hedao realm, and even had a magical weapon for soul defense at his side.
Zhu Fasheng said: "You surprised me even more. Not only did you block my Ruyi Skeleton Staff, but you were also able to launch a soul attack. You are so young. Which secret sect nurtured such a prodigy?"
Xia Zhongnan said: "The depth of the Donggu Territory is far beyond your imagination. The Western Church's attempt to annex the Donggu Territory is nothing but a daydream!"
Suddenly, an ethereal voice sounded: "How dare you, a mere Void Realm kid, speak so arrogantly at the entrance of Maitreya City? Today I will make you stay here forever!"
Xia Zhongnan recognized that the voice was that of the ancient Yutian Buddha.
Previously, he had a head-on collision with Zhu Fasheng's Ruyi Skull Staff, which triggered a battle fluctuation at the level of the Dao Realm, thus attracting the attention of Yutian Buddha.
I originally wanted to come to Maitreya City quietly for an on-site investigation, but I never thought that I would end up disturbing the ancient Buddha.
Zhu Fasheng responded: "Disciple obeys the master's order!"
Xia Zhongnan was only a cultivator in the Void Realm, so Yutian Buddha naturally would not do it himself. He issued a kill order to Zhu Fasheng.
Ghost Child began to wield the Bone Skull Mourning Staff, which had been destroyed in the last fierce battle with Qilin and was now reforged.
In the backyard of Maitreya Temple, a cold wind began to howl, foreshadowing the start of the "cold wind from the ghost realm".
Xia Zhongnan had the experience of using the power of another world to resist the Yin wind before. This time, he built an invisible barrier behind him to protect Yuan Bingyu from the Yin wind. At the same time, he said in a voice transmission: "I don't have enough power to protect you all the way. While their attention is focused on me, find a chance to escape!"
Yuan Bingyu's eyes were filled with tears. She stared at Xia Zhongnan's back, then slowly retreated to the back and disappeared into the house. At this moment, the war was about to break out, and no one cared about this little cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage.
Soon, the entire backyard of Maitreya Temple was covered by the ghostly wind. The surrounding scene was like the underworld, with the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling incessantly, and it seemed that countless dead souls were wandering around.
Xia Zhongnan closed his eyes, as if he was resisting the erosion of the cold wind from the ghost realm.
Seeing that the Yinfeng Ghost Domain was taking effect, Youlingzi chanted a spell and took strange steps, waving the skull staff. The Yinfeng became more and more fierce, like a sharp knife scraping Xia Zhongnan's flesh and blood, and at the same time eroding his soul...
However, even after an incense stick of time had passed, Xia Zhongnan was in the underworld of ghosts and demons that was operating to its limit, and he remained the same, without showing any signs of soul damage or body corruption.
Gui Lingzi was extremely anxious. He recited the spell faster and faster, his steps became as rapid as the wind, and he waved the mourning staff in his hand wildly and violently.
Zhu Fasheng also noticed something unusual and threw out the Ruyi Baoyu again. It instantly expanded into a mountain and pressed towards Xia Zhongnan.
At this critical moment, Xia Zhongnan suddenly opened his eyes, and the Ice Flame Spear drew a circle in front of him.
Within the circle, the forces of water and fire interweave to form a Tai Chi diagram, yin water and yang fire blend together, and the yin and yang energies converge into a point.
Zhu Fasheng and Gui Lingzi's bodies trembled slightly. They felt a powerful energy from that point that was far beyond their understanding.
Immediately afterwards, a thunderous roar shook the sky.
Xia Zhongnan used the Tai Chi point to unleash a terrifying torrent of energy, instantly destroying the underworld of ghosts and demons. Even the walls of the Maitreya Temple were reduced to ruins in the explosion. None of the monks and pilgrims were spared, and the whole place was devastated.
The Netherworld Ghost Realm alone poses no threat to Xia Zhongnan, who possesses power from another world.
Xia Zhongnan had experienced the creation of the world and knew the power of the origin explosion. Inspired by Gui Lingzi's Netherworld Ghost Demon Realm, he finally created this move.
Since Gui Lingzi can use his Yin energy to unleash the "Netherworld Ghost Realm", Xia Zhongnan happens to possess the two elements of water and fire that complement and counteract each other, so he releases the two energies simultaneously, turning them into Tai Chi and detonating the core.
When the core exploded, Zhu Fasheng felt the danger of life and death, and immediately recalled the Ruyi Treasure Cup to protect himself and Gui Lingzi. Even so, they were still thrown four or five miles away by the impact of the explosion along with the treasure cup. If the Ruyi Treasure Cup was not a rare treasure, they would have been shattered to pieces.
Xia Zhongnan still stood there in a daze, having never expected the power of his new move to be so astonishing.
If it weren't for the limited water and fire energy in the Ice Flame Spear, as well as the limitations of his own vitality, the power of this move would be even greater.
The aftermath of the explosion dissipated, and two figures appeared in front, they were the Ancient Buddha Yutian and the Ancient Buddha Zhenzhuo.
After realizing Xia Zhongnan's strength, they no longer dared to underestimate him and appeared together to deal with him.
Xia Zhongnan had to concentrate, his heart pounding.
This move has exhausted the power of water and fire in the Ice Flame Spear, and it cannot be used again for a short period of time. Even the usual techniques of switching between hot and cold cannot be used, and the power of the artifact has been temporarily lost.
Most of his vitality was also depleted.
This is his weakest moment. How can he resist the combined forces of the two "ancient Buddhas"?
"Yutian Ancient Buddha" and "Zhenzhuo Ancient Buddha" also looked heavy...
Back then in Huanguang City, although they had fought with Xia Zhongnan in the Duel of Light, all eyes were focused on Liu Baer. Who would pay attention to an insignificant person in the early stage of the spiritual world?
He would never have expected that the person in front of him was the inconspicuous young man on the wall of Huanguang City back then.
The earth-shaking explosion just now still left them with lingering fears.
If Xia Zhongnan used the same unique skills on them, they believed they would be unable to resist.
Yutian Ancient Buddha did not attack directly, but asked the same question as Zhu Fasheng: "Who are you? What is your purpose in coming to Maitreya Holy City?"
Xia Zhongnan responded: "Didn't you just let me stay in this city forever? What else is there to ask? Let's fight!"
At the same time, he was thinking quickly about how to deal with the situation.
At this moment, every word and every action concerns his life and death, and must be treated with caution.
Seeing that Yutian Ancient Buddha and Zhenzhu Ancient Buddha did not attack immediately, he knew that the two ancient Buddhas must have been shocked by his power just now, which gave him the capital to talk to him now. Once the truth was revealed, they would not hesitate to attack.
Thinking of this, he calmed his mind, raised the Cold Flame Spear and slowly rose into the air, keeping the same height as the two ancient Buddhas, ready to fight at any time.
At the same time, with the help of the power of the other dimension, he gathered tremendous momentum and locked onto the two ancient Buddhas.
Sun Tzu's Art of War says: "Warfare is the art of deception. Therefore, when you are capable, pretend to be incapable; when you are using an enemy, pretend not to use it; when you are near, pretend to be far away; when you are far away, pretend to be near..."
He is using "fraud".
His extra-dimensional power was unfathomable. The two ancient Buddhas immediately felt the profound depth of this power and would never have thought that he was just strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
Because Xia Zhongnan's dimensional power can only assist in enhancing power in battle, in addition to launching soul attacks. At this moment, he is not strong enough, even with the blessing of dimensional power, it is just a facade.
Yutian Ancient Buddha said: "The attack you just made was indeed powerful, and you are qualified to talk to us. However, Zhen Zhuo and I have joined forces, and I am afraid that you will not be able to do anything to us with just your move. If you continue to fight, your end will still be destruction!"
Xia Zhongnan shouted angrily: "Then stop talking nonsense and come up to compete! I want to see if your Maitreya Holy City can withstand our fierce battle!"
The ancient Buddha Yutian and the ancient Buddha Zhenzhuo were both stunned and did not take action for a long time. The most important reason was that they did not want to start a war in the Holy City of Maitreya.
Their battle affected a wide range of people. This was their current holy land and the cornerstone of their expansion of power in the Ancient East Region. If it was destroyed, coupled with the casualties of a large number of believers, what would they do in the future?
The two ancient Buddhas suddenly realized that the Holy City of Maitreya was both the source of their glory and their weak spot.
Their fate is now closely linked to the Holy City of Maitreya. They prosper together and suffer together.
Xia Zhongnan threatened to destroy the Holy City of Maitreya, and they had no way to resist.
Just as they realized it, Xia Zhongnan also had a new plan...
He laughed arrogantly and said, "Why, are you reluctant to give up this world? I will teach you an ancient proverb from the Eastern Region, which is 'If you don't give up the Magic Stone, it will be difficult to capture the Wolf Demon'. If you don't break the protective talisman of Maitreya City, how can you conquer me today? Haha..."
He laughed wildly, like a strong wind sweeping through the valley.
The ancient Buddha Yutian and the ancient Buddha Zhenzhuo were filled with resentment. He said "breaking the talisman" lightly, but how could these two ancient Buddhas dare to touch it easily?
The two ancient Buddhas exchanged glances and already had a plan in mind.
Yutian Ancient Buddha said in a deep voice: "Mitreya City does not accept you. I hope you can return to the way you came. We are willing to let bygones be bygones for what happened here. Let's just leave it at that. What do you think?"
Xia Zhongnan responded firmly: "Absolutely not!"
The ancient Buddha Yutian was instantly furious. He had already condescended to let Xia Zhongnan leave, but the other party was still unwilling to leave. Did he really want to fight to the death?
Seeing this, Zhen Zhuo Ancient Buddha asked, "What other conditions do you want?"
Xia Zhongnan replied: "I started a fierce battle with Master Yuanzhen, a disciple of Zhu Fasheng, just to rescue a woman named Yuan Bingyu. If I leave now, you will definitely not let her go. I never like to give up halfway, and I will save people to the end. Only if you agree to let her leave with me, this matter will come to an end, otherwise, we still need to fight!"
At this time, Zhu Fasheng and Gui Lingzi had hurried back. Yutian Ancient Buddha glared at Zhu Fasheng: "Is what he said true?"
Zhu Fasheng sighed secretly and nodded slowly.
He was well aware of the misdeeds of "Master Yuanzhen". He once occupied Bai Zhige's palace, and because of this he had a grudge against Bai Zhige, but was suppressed by the two ancient Buddhas.
Yutian Ancient Buddha shouted sternly: "Why don't you bring the person to me quickly?"
Zhu Fasheng made a hand gesture and a venerable monk immediately flew over from a distance, bringing with him the subdued Yuan Bingyu.
Yuan Bingyu saw Xia Zhongnan and smiled sadly.
Even though Xia Zhongnan had asked her to find a chance to escape, as a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage, how much chance did she have of escaping inside the Maitreya Temple in Maitreya City?
She felt extremely ashamed when she saw Xia Zhongnan fighting against the six great masters alone for her, and even attracted two ancient Buddhas, while she was arrested again.
Back in Jiangcheng, she was attracted by the Maitreya religion's advocacy of "Maitreya City is a paradise on earth". The girl was yearning for it and sneaked into Maitreya City alone to seek the truth.
