The Black Bear Spirit took a deep breath, no longer hesitating. As its demon energy surged, its body expanded against the wind, instantly rising several hundred feet from the ground.

The imposing might of the Demon King shook the heavens.

Yet, the four Dharma Aspects remained indifferent.

The four Tower Guard Monks were expressionless as well.

The One-Eyed Monk among them coldly spoke, "Since we have arrived, how dare you, spawn of the Demon Race, be so presumptuous?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and made a gesture as if to press down with a giant palm.

The imposing Dharma Aspect above him immediately lifted a massive hand, its countenance solemn as it suppressed.

"Damn, you're the spawn, your whole family is!"

The Black Bear Spirit, notorious for its foul mouth in every great battle, didn't hold back and cursed directly.

It then made a motion as if lifting a cauldron; its demon energy surged skyward, with a loud crash, it collided with the giant hand coming down from the Dharma Aspect.

The terrifying impact seemed to shake the sky itself, with gigantic ripples spreading out instantly for thousands of meters.

In the surrounding mountains and forests, any trees that were taller than the impact ripples were immediately evaporated in half.

One small mountain peak even collapsed instantly, rocks and dust flying in the air, shattering and falling to the ground, creating innumerable deep pits.

Making countless cultivators' hearts tremble.

And on the battlefield, the Black Bear Spirit appeared to withstand the blow from the Dharma Aspect unscathed, but in reality, its arms were already numb and trembling.

There was no avoiding it; the power of the Dharma Aspect was truly terrifying!

It must be known that only those who have entered the Path of the Palm realm could wield the Heaven-Reaching Power of a Dharma Aspect.

Its power is such that a Grandmaster cannot even hope to compare.

Even with the formidable physique of the Black Bear Spirit, facing a direct blow from the Dharma Aspect caused its vital energy and blood to surge.

And this wasn't even a true Dharma Aspect.

It was merely an illusory Dharma Aspect forcibly derived with the cooperation of Buddhist Magical Artifacts and Secret Techniques.

If it were the true Power of Dharma wielded by a true master, then no matter how much confidence the Black Bear Spirit had in its physique, it would never foolishly attempt a head-on confrontation.

"A mayfly trying to shake a tree, weak and unaware."

"Die!"

The One-Eyed Monk's tone was cold and fierce, as he launched another palm strike. The Dharma Aspect behind raised its massive hand high, striking down fiercely.

The Black Bear Spirit's expression was grave, but it wasn't one to be outdone verbally.

"Trash, relying on Magical Artifacts and Secret Techniques, so what if you call forth a Dharma Aspect?"

"Your Master Xiong isn't afraid!"

As the Black Bear Spirit spoke, it summoned a Carved Dragon Zen Staff in its hand, the staff blazing with Buddhist might, its golden light was sacred and dazzling.

It swung the staff towards the Dharma Aspect.

With a clang.

Once more, the Buddhist power clashed.

Countless Buddhist Scriptures on the Carved Dragon Zen Staff dissipated and scattered. After a tremor, it could no longer hold on and shattered on the spot.

But even so, the Black Bear Spirit still sneered, "Pah, I thought it was some treasure, turns out it's trash. Your Jinshan Temple is the same, keeping such trash in the Dharma Hall, I'd feel ashamed!"

It wore a look of contempt.

The four Tower Guard Monks all looked angry upon hearing this.

The distant watching cultivators were both amused and helpless.

"Good grief, stealing their Magical Artifact to fight their Dharma Aspect, and when it doesn't succeed, calling it trash. This Bear Demon King really knows how to mess with minds."

"I understand now why Jinshan Temple would send the Nine Pearl Monk to hunt it down, it's infuriating."

"Leaving everything else aside, the strength of this Black Bear Spirit's words is at a Foundation Level!"

"But I admire its thievery skills even more, hahaha!"

...

On the battlefield, the One-Eyed Monk's face was dark, but he didn't argue further, merely speaking coldly.

"Spawn, destined to the Beast Realm for eternity!"

After speaking, he raised his hand and tossed it, the Prayer Beads in his hand expanded with the wind, growing to the size of a house, then held by the Dharma Aspect.

The Dharma Aspect, silent, wielded the Prayer Beads and smashed down fiercely.

The Eighth Grade Magical Artifact radiated divine might, manifesting thousands of golden Buddhist Scriptures, the scriptures condensed upon the Prayer Beads, unleashing unparalleled heavenly might.

Without even a single strike landing, the entire White Cliff Mountain seemed to tremble faintly.

The terrifying Buddhist might gave the Black Bear Spirit a feeling of dread in its heart.

There was also an inexplicable force that formed a natural suppression against it as a member of the Demon Race.

In that instant, it even found it somewhat difficult to move.

Fortunately, a Pill Furnace appeared just in time, blocking in front of it.

"Finally appeared!"

The One-Eyed Monk was obviously prepared for this Pill Furnace, as soon as the furnace countered the incoming Prayer Beads, he withdrew, controlling the Dharma Aspect to retreat rapidly.

"Take action!"

Simultaneously, the other three Tower Guard Monks seized the opportunity to make their move.

Two of them waved their hands, and with a swoosh, two golden chains flew out, each wrapping around the legs of the Alchemy Furnace.

The other monk tossed out his Prayer Beads, which expanded in the wind and were held in the palm of his Dharma Aspect.

Without any pause, the Dharma Aspect, holding the Prayer Beads, launched a direct attack towards Lin Heng.

This sequence, although it seemed complex, actually happened in an instant, flowing smoothly as if pre-planned.

"Damn, these Leifeng Pagoda Tower Guard Monks indeed had a plan!"

The distant cultivators witnessing this situation all turned pale.

"It seems they've acted with caution, the death of the Nine Pearl Monk made them well-prepared!"

"If that's the case, that Daoist is doomed..."

Many wore complicated expressions.

Though the battle between Buddha and Dao concerned neither life nor death for them, the many years of decline of Daoism finally saw someone who could suppress the arrogance of the Buddhist Sect, if dealt with easily, it would indeed be regrettable.

"Boss, dodge quickly!!"

At this moment, the Black Bear Spirit, alarmed, shouted urgently.

It knew this Pill Furnace was the boss's greatest trump card, now that the furnace was restrained, how could the boss, with just the physique of a Grandmaster, withstand a blow from an Eighth Grade Buddhist Magical Artifact?

Yet, just as it was consumed with urgency, it saw the boss, in calmness, raise his hand and press his two fingers together.

Though no action was yet apparent, the Black Bear Spirit felt a sudden chill encompassing all of White Cliff Mountain.

The wind started, wind in countless numbers.

The wind like blades, painfully scraping bones.

These winds surged toward the boss's fingers, and the Innate True Qi within the boss also moved wildly, all converging at his fingers.

White Cliff Mountain seemed to sway slightly.

A spine-chilling, sky-piercing Sword Qi suddenly appeared.

In that moment, everyone saw in Lin Heng's hand, a tremendous illusory sword shadow appear.

This sword shadow was as huge as a mountain, majestic and fierce, its all-pervasive killing intent filled the skies.

The Black Bear Spirit's pupils contracted sharply, looking at this illusory sword shadow filled with Innate True Qi, it opened its mouth wide, trembling as it spoke, "Celestial Spirit Sword Qi?"

"How... how is this possible? How is this possible?"

The Black Bear Spirit clutched its head, its eyes full of horrified shock.

And at this moment, the Tower Guard Monk controlling the Dharma Aspect, with the Eighth Grade Prayer Beads attacking Lin Heng, also had his hairs stand on end upon seeing that Qi Body surging illusory sword shadow.

In the next second, the Celestial Spirit Sword Qi came slashing towards him.

His face turned deathly pale instantaneously.
