"Huh? Dongfang Meng? One of the Four Great Beauties of the Ancient Martial World, I really can't bear to kill you. Why not follow me, the Golden Man? It's far better than following that trash Ye Tianchen!" The Golden Man ogled Dongfang Meng as he spoke, sneering lewdly.
Dongfang Meng ignored the Golden Man and turned to Master Fang Yi, saying, "Master, let me take this battle. Your previous fight with Xue Yundao consumed too much of your Martial Arts True Power, and you've been injured. You've already done plenty for the people of Desolate Stone Village, fulfilling your promise to Tianchen!"
"My agreement with Master Ye is just one reason. Allowing these scoundrels to take lives as they please is the second reason. The Buddhist Sacred Land cannot be desecrated is the third reason. As the leader of this inherited Buddhist Sacred Land, I cannot stand by as these evil forces disturb it. This is my responsibility, my duty, and my resolve towards the Buddha!" Master Fang Yi looked earnestly at Dongfang Meng as he spoke.
"But... Master, you are already severely injured. This person's Gang Qi is quite formidable, not to be underestimated..." Dongfang Meng said worriedly.
Indeed, both Dongfang Meng, Tianshuang'er, Zhang Ruotong, Hu Gao, Tian Boguang, and all the villagers of Desolate Stone Village believe that the Buddhist Shaolin has done enough for them. From the moment Ye Tianchen entered the flames for these three full years, it was always Master Fang Yi and others protecting Desolate Stone Village. During these three years, many changes transpired within Earth's three great Ancient Martial Worlds, giving rise to many mysterious and unpredictable forces, and many martial arts heritages re-emerged. Whether in the Demon Clan or the Human Clan, powers arose, even the Ancient Alien Race seemed poised to emerge. This is extremely dangerous for a village of ordinary worldly people yet living amidst the bloody turmoil of the Ancient Martial World, as they could disappear entirely at any moment until the Nine Netherworld, Blood Killing Organization, and the Jin family, these three powerful forces, attacked. They all held an unending feud with Ye Tianchen, wanting to annihilate Desolate Stone Village, and Dongfang Meng and the others' cultivation realm could not withstand it; two fists cannot defeat four hands!
It was at this moment that Master Fang Yi of the Buddhist Sacred Land Shaolin and others took action, relocating all the villagers of Desolate Stone Village to within the Buddhist Sect to live there. And the powerful forces of the Nine Netherworld dared not easily attack the Buddhist Sect, daunted by the unfathomable heritage of the Buddhism. Since the Late Ancient Times to now, who knows how much bloodshed it has weathered; even in the storm-tossed era from Late Ancient to Ancient Early Stage, which turned into a time of dark turmoil, the entire Martial Arts World was affected, with countless beings losing their lives, yet the Buddhist Sect stood strong. Just this power makes people fearful, and they dare not underestimate it.
So during this period, the Nine Netherworld, Blood Killing Organization, and the Jin family only sent people to probe and harass, not daring to forcefully attack. Unexpectedly, these three forces eventually reached an agreement to band together to eliminate the Buddhist Sacred Land, intending not only to take revenge on Ye Tianchen, wanting to erase everyone and everything associated with him, but mainly to carve up the mysterious Buddhist Sect to gain some benefits they desire.
Understand that the Buddhist Sect has inherited countless eons, with its heritage born during the Late Ancient Times, rapidly spreading throughout the Martial Arts World in a whirlwind manner. Regardless of worldly mortals or powerful martial artists, or even some Ancient Alien Races and Demon Clans, they are all influenced by the power of the Buddhist Sect, believing in its force. How terrifying is this? There must be some hidden secrets within, and with compassion and the goal of saving all beings, the Buddhist Sect possesses numerous potent Buddhist Holy Skills, distinct from general Martial Arts Divine Skills. The Buddhist Holy Skills often have unexpected powers coveted by many, leading to the current situation, with the Nine Netherworld, Blood Killing Organization, and the Jin family leading, along with other inheritances wanting a share, attacking the Buddhist Sacred Land, placing the inherited Shaolin Sacred Land in a precarious state, on the brink of extinction at any moment.
"If even I cannot withstand his Gang Qi, you will lose your lives charging forward. Let me handle it, not just for you or the villagers of Desolate Stone Village, but also for the inviolable dignity of my Buddhist Sect!" Master Fang Yi said with a determined gaze.
Whoosh!
The Golden Man struck, launching a surprise attack while Master Fang Yi and Dongfang Meng were conversing, attempting to grievously harm Master Fang Yi. The Golden Man was no fool, recognizing Master Fang Yi as a high monk of the Buddhist Sect, with strength that shouldn't be underestimated, so he naturally aimed to catch him off guard and severely injure or even kill him.
It must be said, the Golden Man's speed was fast, especially with the awe-inspiring Gang Qi about him, able to cultivate his Gang Qi to such an extent, the Jin family truly is formidable. This kind of Gang Qi, controlled freely, if truly great success is achieved, few could rival it!
"Watch out!"
Master Fang Yi saw the Golden Man charging, moving at such incredible speed, it was difficult to evade. He quickly pushed Dongfang Meng aside, prepared to resist, but it was already too late, as the Golden Man already reached him, throwing a powerful punch infused with strong Gang Qi, directly smashing at Master Fang Yi.
"This is bad!"
"Master Fang Yi!"
"Despicable scoundrel!"
Everyone on the Buddhism side was shocked, knowing it was too late, and Master Fang Yi couldn't respond in time. The Golden Man was truly hateful and shameless for launching a sudden assault, everyone was filled with anger and grief. The Golden Man's protective Gang Qi was so powerful, being directly struck by a punch could very well mean the death of Master Fang Yi.
Bang!
Shock, trembling, everyone was dumbstruck, both those on the Buddhism side like Dongfang Meng and others, and the several forces on the Jin family side were extremely astonished, all gaping at the scene, the Golden Man's eyes showing a trace of murder as he coldly looked at the person in front of him said, "Who are you to dare challenge me?"
"And who are you? Dare to make a move on me?" The person standing in front of the Golden Man also asked disdainfully.
"You, a mere young monk, courting death!" As the Golden Man spoke, he erupted with a powerful protective qi, intending to blast the person in front of him away.
"A mere Golden family, and you dare to boast about attacking the Buddhist Sacred Land, you're tired of living!" The person in front of the Golden Man said in the same manner.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, the Golden Man was pushed back four or five meters, his eyes filled with amazement, a completely incredulous look. It was the first time anyone had been able to push back his protective gang qi like this. It must be clear that, as the sixth son of Huangjin Xuanyuan, the Golden Man had been rigorously trained since childhood. Whether in martial arts cultivation or the use of spiritual medicine, it was always the best. If it had been Master Fang Yi or other high monks of the Buddhist sect who repelled him, the Golden Man wouldn't be so angry and incredulous. Yet, before him stood a young monk, and a young monk with such power was terrifying beyond belief?
Everyone present was stunned, holding their breath. Even strong figures like Sha Wujin from the Blood Killing Organization and Xue Yundao from the Nine Netherworld were incredulously watching this scene, unable to believe that this suddenly appeared young monk, standing in front of Master Fang Yi, could repel the immensely powerful protective gang qi of the Golden Man. What exactly was the background of this young monk?
"So many of you bully the Buddhist Sacred Land, aren't you afraid of falling into Hell forever?" The young monk coldly looked at everyone present and said.
"Hmph, a mere young monk dares to stand out and fight, it seems the Buddhist sect truly has no one left, their fate is at its end!"
"A little young monk with a bit of cultivation dares to step up, truly courting death!"
"Who is this young monk we've not seen before?"
Some of the people present started discussing, while the young monk looked at Master Fang Yi and said: "Master, you have worked hard, let me fight these people!"
"You... which mentor's young monk are you? Why have I never seen you before?" Master Fang Yi felt something strange and couldn't help but ask the young monk in front of him.
"Hehe, I just became a disciple of the Buddhist sect, the master probably hasn't seen me yet!" The young monk replied with a smile.
Master Fang Yi was somewhat stunned, feeling puzzled. The Buddhist heritage left on Earth was only in this small Shaolin area. It wasn't very large. For the Buddhist sect to have such a gifted young monk, he should know about it, but why has he never seen him?
"The Buddhist Holy Skill has some miraculous aspects, being able to repel the protective gang qi of this gentleman earlier might be pure luck, just step back and let me handle it!" Master Fang Yi, not needing further unnecessary sacrifice, said to the young monk.
"Rest assured, Master, if I'm not a match, I won't force it!" The young monk nodded.
"But... this gentleman with powerful protective qi is a member of the Golden family, which has always been extremely domineering; it's best not to offend them!" Master Fang Yi advised worriedly.
"The Golden family? I heard they're a family more domineering than dogs, just not sure if they're dogs relying on people's power. I love opposing domineering families; it's more interesting that way!"
Before Master Fang Yi and others could react, the young monk suddenly rushed towards the Golden Man, his aura immensely strong... (To be continued.
