They had long heard of a Black Bear Spirit in the Demon Race who had a penchant for cassocks, especially fond of stealing items from the Buddhist Sect.

The Jinshan Temple of the Saint Sect had been plagued by this Black Bear Spirit for decades!

The high monks present did not expect that it would now be the turn of their Lingyin Temple.

The most excessive part is that this Black Bear Spirit had been a bit restrained with Jinshan Temple, knowing when to stop.

But when it came to Lingyin Temple, it took an entire palace away directly.

How is this still stealing?

This is clearly robbery!

"Uncultured beast, today I shall make you regret it!"

A high monk from the Precepts Hall shouted angrily, raising his hand to strike a Great Celestial Sound Buddha Palm, intending to subdue the demon before him.

But they apparently did not know the current power of the Black Bear Spirit. The high monk's palm strike was easily scattered by a casual wave from the Black Bear Spirit without it even lifting an eyelid. It then sent that boastful high monk flying with a slap, splashing into the water with an unknown fate.

"Is this all? Is this it?"

The Black Bear Spirit, always sharp-tongued, looked down its nose at people, its tone full of mockery.

"This rascal..."

The remaining monks looked at each other, their eyes filled with horror, clearly not expecting a petty thief to have such terrifying power.

Immediately, over a dozen of them furrowed their brows, summoning their personal Magical Artifacts in succession.

Buddhist Bell.

Gold Foil.

Wooden Fish.

Zen Staff.

Various Buddhist Magical Artifacts displayed divine power, attacking the Black Bear Spirit in unison.

However, the Black Bear Spirit remained utterly unfazed, sweeping its wide sleeves to take out various Buddhist Magical Artifacts from its Space Ring.

Buddhist Bell, Gold Foil, Wooden Fish, Zen Staff.

Whatever the others had, the Black Bear Spirit had as well, and in much greater quantity.

These were naturally from Jinshan Temple. Although the Black Bear Spirit couldn't fully leverage the artifacts' power, its sheer number of artifacts gave it no concern for losses.

One after another, the artifacts collided with those attacking, destroying and shattering them, rendering them useless.

"This beast!!"

Such a situation infuriated the high monks, turning their faces green.

There was no way they could accept the fact that a demon had more Buddhist treasures than they did.

At this moment, another voice that further shattered their mindset rang out.

"Uncles, there's another thief!"

Someone shouted, startling the monks, who turned to see the Arhat Hall buildings disappearing one by one in the distance.

This scene left the monks almost stupefied.

"Scoundrel, scoundrel!!"

The high monks roared with rage, their faces flushed to the color of a pig's liver, trying to rush forward to stop it.

But the Black Bear Spirit transformed, growing to the size of a small mountain, blocking their path with an aggravating challenge:

"You want to fight Master Xiong while being distracted? Do you think Master Xiong eats vegetarian?!"

As he spoke, he slapped down a massive bear paw like a black cloud, crushing a slower monk in the Grandmaster Realm into paste.

"There's trouble in the temple; Dharma King, return quickly!"

Finally realizing the Black Bear Spirit's terrifying nature, a high monk roared, his voice booming like a bell to the mountain gate.

Dust Spirit, battling Bai Suzhen, had his eyes darken, muttering how it was as expected.

He drove Leifeng Pagoda to crash into Bai Suzhen, forcing her to parry while ordering the Eighteen Copper Arhats:

"I'll handle her, you quickly aid the temple!"

The Eighteen Copper Arhats obeyed, retreating, realizing their presence wouldn't change the battle's outcome in a short span.

With the rear in flames, priority was to calm it first!

Instantly, eighteen beams of golden light shot off to the temple.

Bai Suzhen wanted to stop them but couldn't break free from Dust Spirit's entanglement. Boosted by the Great Brightness Buddha Lotus Array, Dust Spirit's cultivation nearly matched her own, leveraging Leifeng Pagoda, making it hard for her to win quickly.

Yet she remained composed.

With the Eighteen Copper Arhats returning to the temple, losing the array's support meant even together, they merely wielded ordinary great power.

Ordinary great power might not contend with the Observatory Master!

Bai Suzhen refocused, re-engaging Dust Spirit fiercely.

Immortal Artifact against Immortal Artifact, Dharma Aspect against Dharma Aspect, their clash shook heaven and earth, causing storms; the spectacle far outshone her past battle with Celestial Pearl Monk.

Within the array, the monks felt an intense heart-pounding experience.

On this side, the Black Bear Spirit remained quite at ease. Facing monks with not one Grandmaster, even with Buddhist Secret Skill bolstering, they were no match.

Only upon sensing the Eighteen Copper Arhats fast approaching did it show a slight seriousness.

Boom!

The Eighteen Copper Arhats arrived, immediately attacking the Black Bear Spirit without a word.

Battle erupted.

Meanwhile, Lin Heng was still wildly looting.

As one great hall after another vanished, more monks noticed him, yet none could stop him, nor dared to.

Dust Concealment was absent.

Dust Spirit was tied by Bai Suzhen.

The Eighteen Copper Arhats were dealing with the Black Bear Spirit.

To Lin Heng, the remaining people at Lingyin Temple were no different from ants; those daring enough to obstruct were slapped away.

In the end, the high monks could only stomp with anger, watching helplessly as he pillaged the great halls.

One hall, two halls.

Ten halls.

A hundred halls.

The once prosperous neighboring Lingyin Temple, in the blink of an eye, was reduced to just a few scattered buildings in the vast temple, giving off a desolate feel from afar...

The high monks cursed wildly, never having seen someone so shameless!

Lin Heng ignored them completely.

Continuing on his way.

Upon reaching the Subduing Dragon Hall, Lin Heng waved his hand, intending to seize the entire hall.

Unexpectedly, the Grandmaster's power struck the hall, but it stood firm and undamaged?

"This is bad, there's a barrier!" Lin Heng suddenly sensed something, instantly escaping to safety with Near and Far Technique.

The next moment, the great hall erupted with a blazing Buddha Light, shaking the surrounding void violently.

Simultaneously, countless scriptures manifested outside the hall, each word profound, attaching to the golden bricks and azure tiles, as beams of light lit up, enclosing the entire hall!

"The aura of an Immortal Soldier?"

"Subduing Dragon Hall..."

"Could it be, the Great Sun Subduing Dragon Pestle?!"

Lin Heng's eyes narrowed, realizing Lingyin Temple's Immortal Artifact was within this hall, feeling the terrifying aura, understanding he couldn't breach the hall's barrier without the Immortal Sword.

At the same time, deep within Lingyin Temple, a cold gaze turned toward him.

This was the temple's deepest foundation!
