WhatShouldIBeCalled led his men into the backyard. Before they even had a chance to act, they saw a group of monks charging out.
Before they could react, this group of monks had already initiated combat.
Suddenly, the players also became panicked.
"What's going on? Where did these monks come from?"
"Damn, these monks are ruthless, fighting like they have no regard for their own lives!"
"Don't be chickens! Their cultivation realm isn't much different from ours. Just cut them down and split their heads open!"
"That's right, kill these bald donkeys!"
These monks were naturally from the Zen Heart Temple. Living Up to the Tathagata had led his people to wait outside Da Fang Prefecture City with a clear objective: to intercept the members of the Celestial One Daoist Sect coming to offer aid. Since Zhao Qixian wanted to ignite the struggle between Buddhism and Daoism, then so be it. As for this group of devils from the Profound Yellow Sect... The monks of Zen Heart Temple knew how to subdue demons and eliminate evil!
It wasn't long before the Sword Team was driven out, and the members of the Cai Family were also fleeing towards the backyard. At this moment, they all understood that only the backyard could offer them safety.
"Great master, save me! These villains want to harm my Cai Family!" The patriarch of the Cai Family fled in panic, immediately seeking help from the masters of Zen Heart Temple.
Abbot Kuxuan silently chanted a Buddha's name. "Amitabha. Layman, rest assured. Leave these devils to us at Zen Heart Temple to clear them out."
With that, the staff-wielding monks from Zen Heart Temple charged forward.
These staff-wielding monks were strong, and their coordination in advance and retreat was excellent, subtly forming a staff formation.
"Vajra Demon Subduing!" Abbot Kuxuan gave a loud shout.
The next moment, the staff-wielding monks began to shift their positions, using their wooden staffs to forcefully push the players back.
Seeing this formation, the players realized they were up against a determined blockade.
Since that was the case...
"Art is an EXPLOSION!" Abbess, Don't Love Me pulled out a Fire Thunder Bullet. After lighting it and watching the fuse burn down almost completely, he hurled it directly at the Vajra Demon Subduing formation of the monks.
The power of the Fire Thunder Bullet was not to be underestimated. Not to mention, Abbess, Don't Love Me had timed the throw perfectly.
So, when faced with this sudden attack, the Zen Heart Temple monks couldn't react in time.
One of the staff-wielding monks shook his wooden staff, intending to knock the Fire Thunder Bullet back towards Abbess, Don't Love Me.
But the fuse had already burned through. There was no chance to knock it away.
The moment the wooden staff touched the Fire Thunder Bullet, it exploded violently. The timing was perfect.
BOOM!
A huge noise and shockwave spread out. The Vajra Demon Subduing formation, created by the Zen Heart Temple's staff-wielding monks, completely collapsed at that moment.
Screams and wails arose. Those Zen Heart Temple monks closest to the explosion almost all suffered serious injuries. The monk at the very center had his arm blown off, his clothes completely engulfed in flames, and his own life force completely extinguished.
Facing such a thermal weapon without any defense, the chances of survival were practically nil.
"It's our turn," Junlin said, looking down at the monks. "You continue to take care of the Cai Family members. Leave these monks to us from Lingxiao Hall."
With that, he leaped down.
Behind him, Evil Queen Morgana, Poisonous Panda, Under the Phoenix Tree, Neighbor Six, and Sister Zhou followed suit.
Abbess, Don't Love Me had intended to keep bombing, but alas, he had only brought two Fire Thunder Bullets. Now that they were all used up, he could only jump down as well.
"Damn, it's one thing to be strong, but they're also so freaking cool."
"I'm definitely getting a full set of gear later. It's decided, it'll be a Navy set! I must discuss it with Xuanqing."
"The Three Admirals of the Navy? Just thinking about it is awesome!"
"When is our Cloud Lament going to get a set? This badge looks too lame."
The players were almost all captivated by Junlin and his team. There was no denying it. Junlin and his team were the ones truly playing this game to its fullest potential. Not only did their power increase rapidly, but they also exclusively pursued the path of high-level players, occupying five of the top ten spots—a frighteningly impressive feat.
"The Fifth Du Gate—Open!"
Old Mo now possessed enough Internal Energy to sustain this state for a very long time. With the Eight Gates Escape Armor activated, he was a veritable god of war!
"Armament Haki!"
Internal Energy surged through his arms, which soon turned a jet-black color, as if forged from steel. In this state, he was confident he could even fight a master of the Carefree Earth Realm.
"The hunt begins!"
Under the Phoenix Tree retreated, his crossbow already raised.
SWISH!
SWISH!
SWISH!
Three poisoned arrows shot out, instantly claiming the lives of three Zen Heart Temple monks.
Poisonous Panda sprinkled a handful of Poisonous Powder around to prevent sneak attacks, while also taking out his weapon, the Bamboo Flute.
As the strains of the Ballad of the Blue Sea began, Old Mo and Junlin also felt their blood and energy surge, and the two immediately charged forward together.
Any opponent struck by Old Mo's fists would surely suffer broken bones and tendons. The monks' wooden staffs struck him, only to snap in half against his body, unable to harm Old Mo in the slightest.
Junlin, trailing Old Mo, moved like a phantom. Each swing of his Black Dragon Dagger effortlessly reaped a monk's life.
Seeing this scene, Abbot Kuxuan's face changed dramatically. He never imagined that the situation, stabilized just moments before, could be overturned by the arrival of these few individuals.
The Profound Yellow Sect was truly not to be underestimated.
"Devil!" Abbot Kuxuan thundered, unleashing a Vajra Palm. A terrifying palm force shot towards Old Mo.
Seeing their Abbot join the fray, the Zen Heart Temple monks surged forward as one. Their duty was simply to exorcise demons; for the sake of Buddha, they feared neither life nor death!
"These bald donkeys actually dare to come at us? Brothers, charge!"
"Don't let me find out where their temple is, or I'll lead a group to level it!"
"Damn it, these baldies only aim for my lower regions! It's disgusting!"
"How can monks fight like this? Watch my family-ending sweep to the groin!"
The players were also enraged. With Junlin and his team leading the charge, the players surged forward en masse. When it came to dirty tricks, who among them was afraid?
Facing Abbot Kuxuan's palm strike, Old Mo didn't flinch in the slightest but charged head-on!
You think you're tough? I'm tougher!
The two immediately clashed.
Despite Abbot Kuxuan's formidable Grandmaster Realm cultivation, he was continuously pushed back by the unnaturally strong Old Mo.
How could someone at the First-Grade Martial Artist Realm possess such strength? Damn it! Abbot Kuxuan thought, alarmed.
His disciples around him were falling one after another. And as soon as his disciples fell, they were swarmed by Profound Yellow Sect Disciples, four or five ganging up on one. They resorted to the most insidious tactics available. That scene made even Abbot Kuxuan's head throb. Truly, the Profound Yellow Sect acted in the style of a Demon Sect, their attacks so vicious.
BANG!
Old Mo launched a kick. Abbot Kuxuan, distracted, failed to dodge and took the full force of the brutal kick.
One kick! Abbot Kuxuan felt his internal organs rupture, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
Such a terrifying technique. If I were to take another kick, I fear I might have to meet Buddha myself!
"Old monk, you dare to be distracted while fighting me?" Old Mo chuckled. "This next kick will send you to meet your Buddha!"
With that, he charged forward again, aiming another kick at Abbot Kuxuan.
This kick. It spells certain death! Old Mo knew. Abbot Kuxuan knew it even more clearly.
Just as Abbot Kuxuan saw the dire situation and planned to retreat, a spectral figure appeared behind him.
An assassin at the Grandmaster Realm?!
"Compassionate Ferry!" Abbot Kuxuan cried out, his body emitting a strange ripple that rapidly spread outwards.
All who were touched by this ripple stopped their actions.
"What's happening? Why do I suddenly not want to fight?"
"How could we kill anyone? What on earth am I doing?"
"Damn it, what kind of freaky skill is this? Why do I suddenly just want to kneel and prostrate myself before them?"
"It's an aura! That's the old monk's aura!"
Naturally, this aura also affected Junlin, who had been poised for a fatal blow.
Forced to halt, Old Mo couldn't deliver the kick. The internal energy backlash made him spit out a mouthful of blood.
Junlin, gripping the Black Dragon Dagger, wore a grim expression.
I was careless. I forgot that Grandmasters could use their aura to save their lives. If I had deployed my aura first, the outcome might have been different. But unfortunately, Abbot Kuxuan acted before I could. Still, it's not too late!
Junlin turned to look at Abbot Kuxuan, who had retreated to the edge.
"Celestial Remnant!"
Junlin showed no mercy. Holding the Black Dragon Dagger, he turned and rushed head-on. He now viewed Abbot Kuxuan as prey, prey he had no intention of letting escape!
Affected by Junlin's aura, the Zen Heart Temple monks panicked. They had no way to withstand an assault from a Grandmaster Realm expert.
The players, noticing this, seized the opportunity to beat them while they were down. Their attacks became even more vicious.
Abbot Kuxuan, feeling his opponent's aura, paled slightly. "How could you comprehend the Celestial Remnant aura? You are clearly not a disabled person!"
"Go ask your Buddha!"
Junlin, moving like a phantom, closed the distance instantly, his dagger already arcing towards Abbot Kuxuan's throat.
Abbot Kuxuan, already severely injured from the kick, was no match for Junlin in his current state. Moreover, Junlin's brazen assassination technique, executed in plain sight, left him aghast. He couldn't mount even the slightest defense in time.
SHINK!
The Black Dragon Dagger slid across his neck. Junlin's figure was already gone, moving on to attack the other Zen Heart Temple monks.
In that single exchange, the world before Abbot Kuxuan's eyes rapidly faded, until he collapsed completely on the spot.
At that moment, the Zen Heart Temple monks, having lost their linchpin, retreated in terror.
The members of the Cai Family descended into utter chaos. To them, the Zen Heart Temple monks were their lifeline. But now that lifeline was severed, rendering the Cai Family members as helpless as fish on a chopping board. Their fate was seemingly sealed.
A one-sided slaughter fully unfolded. For Contribution Points, the players of the Profound Yellow Sect wouldn't hesitate even to demolish the entire Cai Estate.
Thus, for them, the Cai Family instance dungeon was as good as completely cleared!
