Chapter 63: Brahman Lullaby

Jiang Aijian did not even have the time to turn around when he saw the few black-robed cultivators being repelled by the golden light. They did not even have the chance to land a blow.

The expressions of the Righteous Path’s cultivators changed slightly.

The people from the Fiend Temple looked up. The five people they sent had cultivation bases at the Divine Court Realm. They were also the Fiend Temple’s main force on this occasion. They did not expect Kong Xuan to repel all of them with a single move.

The Fiend Temple’s Third Seat, Duan Xing, was the only one who remained unfazed. He sat on his seat calmly as he stared at Kong Xuan in the plaza. A flash of killing intent could be seen in his eyes.

A cultivator from the Clarity Sect said, “To think that Kong Xuan possesses such a high cultivation base… I can’t even imagine what would happen if Abbot Kong Yuan were here.”

Based on Lu Zhou’s memories, it was true that the Temple of Great Emptiness stayed away from the affairs of the world. During the past happenings in the cultivation world, the Temple of Great Emptiness had almost always kept themselves out of it. Rumor had it that the abbot of the Temple of Great Emptiness was a cultivation genius of the Buddhist Zen Sect. He was so passionate about the Zen Sect that it was said that he became a Buddhist monk immediately. However, rumors were just rumors after all. Back then, Zhao Yue had encountered the Temple of Great Emptiness’ Kong Ming. They had a fight, and Zhao Yue had killed Kong Ming. If he truly had been a cultivator of the Mysterious Heaven Saint Realm, Zhao Yue would not have bested him. Since the Temple of Great Emptiness had chosen to interrupt the grand ceremony this time, they were clearly declaring the Evil Sky Pavilion as their enemy!

Meanwhile, the Fiend Temple’s Third Seat, Duan Xing, glanced at his defeated subordinates before he said indifferently, “Kong Xuan, an honest person doesn’t have to resort to schemes. You’re the one who kept the elders of Clarity Sect and Righteous Sect away, right?”

Kong Xuan shook his head. “The Great Temple of Emptiness is an open and upright institution. Why would we need to resort to such methods?”

“Open and upright? Weren’t you the one who stationed the stick monks outside the holy altar?” Duan Xing said with a sneer.

“It seems like you greatly misunderstand the Temple of Great Emptiness, dear benefactor… If you insist on stopping me, Benefactor Duan, I’ll play the game with you.”

Both sides were waiting with swords drawn and bows nocked.

At the same time, Jiang Aijian chuckled softly as he said, “Old Mister, didn’t I tell you? That sword freak, Chen Wenjie, has always held an ambiguous stance. He has killed many elites from the Clarity and Righteous Sects. If he steps forward now, the two sects would definitely love to turn him into ashes.”

Lu Zhou was puzzled. “Chen Wenjie is ambiguous with his stance?”

“Old Mister, think about it. If you sell the sword to me, I’ll tell you everything you want to know,” Jiang Aijian used his hand to cover his mouth as he said in a hushed tone, “I even know who the Righteous Sect’s Master Zhang Yuanshan’s wife is seeing…” He winked at Lu Zhou as he spoke, his expression seemed to say there was nothing under the heavens that he did not know about.

Lu Zhou was once again rendered speechless by Jiang Aijian, but he kept a straight face. ‘That ignorant man, Zhang Yuanshan, has cursed me so many times. Is his wife having an affair a punishment?’ He coughed before he dismissed this preposterous thought and focused his attention on the plaza.

At this moment, the Fiend Temple’s Third Seat, Duan Xing, rose to his feet slowly. He raised both arms and a subordinate standing behind him caught his black robes respectfully.

The onlookers had a clear look at Duan Xing’s appearance at this time. He was a sour-faced young man with thin lips and cold eyes.

“Bald monkey… I will not agree to you taking Zhao Yue away,” Duan Xing said before he vanished from his spot. When he reappeared, he stood in front of Kong Xuan.

“Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm!” It only took the onlookers one glance to see that Duan Xing was an elite. Their expressions changed drastically. They did not expect to see a Nascent Divinity Tribulation Realm’s expert in this small-time grand ceremony on the holy altar.

It was clear that the Fiend Temple placed a lot of weight on Zhao Yue since Zhuo Xinchan was dead. It was no wonder that Duan Xing refused to give in! Zuo Xinchan was the only Nascent Divinity Tribulation Realm’s expert who managed to cultivate the Fiend Zen to the Four-leaf Golden Lotus’ stage. However, he died inside the Evil Sky Pavilion. How could they not be furious about this?

“Arhat Golden Body!” Kong Xuan activated his Golden Body again. His kasaya fluttered in the wind caused by his surging energy.

In the next moment, Duan Xing’s body seemed to have split into 10, 100, 1,000… They surrounded Kong Xuan and attacked at the same time.

The onlookers were stunned. What technique was this? Why had they never seen this before?

Even the subordinates from the Fiend Temple shook their heads and exclaimed in wonder. They had never seen such a dazzling technique before.

Cultivators from the Righteous or Fiend Paths rarely cultivated agility techniques. These afterimages were created by moving at an incredibly fast speed.

“Daoist technique, Dao Invisibility,” Lu Zhou said as he stroked his beard.

Jiang Aijian was slightly surprised. “Old Mister, you know this technique?”

“This technique originated from the Daoist Societies. It was spread to Fuyu before it eventually became a lost art,” Lu Zhou said,

“Fuyu? The Other Tribes…” Jiang Aijian’s eyes widened. He looked at the Fiend Temple’s Third Seat and the dazzling silhouettes he left all across the plaza.

In a world where Great Yan held dominance, there was no place for the Other Tribes.

…

Thousands upon thousands of silhouettes landed blows on the Arhat Golden Body.

Kong Xuan felt immensely pressured, causing him to frown. “As expected of the Fiend Temple’s Third Seat… This old monk has indeed underestimated the Nascent Divinity Tribulation Realm cultivation base.”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Shadow punches hit the Golden Body with blasts of air as energy formed crisscrossed networks in the air above the plaza.

Those who were nearer took a few steps backward to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Kong Xuan moved his hands as he said, “In that case, this old monk won’t hold back.” Primal Qi surrounded him as he joined his palms together. “Seeing One’s Nature.” His heart was clear and bright. He was as steady as Mount Tai.

Zen Sect’s Dhyana Mudra!

The thousands upon thousands of silhouettes were immediately dispersed by the Dhyana Mudra.

Duan Xing paused in midair as if he had been frozen in place.

During this short moment, Kong Xuan moved his arms again. The Dhyana Mudra disappeared as he aimed a hand seal toward Duan Xing.

Great Vajra Wheel Hand Sign?

Bzzt!

Duan Xing frowned slightly. He raised his arms, blocking the powerful attack. Four-leaf Golden Lotus Avatar!

It was as if the vajra had hit a tough wall as it bounced back.

The cultivators scattered to dodge the attack.

The hand sign hit the holy altar’s portico, and the 48 doors shook violently. The shockwave from the energy blasted the doors open like a raging wind.

The main door in the middle was the most sacred. It was also the tallest and biggest door. With a loud bang, Zhao Yue was exposed.

The cultivators from the Righteous and Fiend Paths looked over.

“Holy Daughter!”

A small round dais could be seen inside the door. Zhao Yue was tied to a pole on the dais. She had a furious expression on her face, but she did not struggle. A bright red lotus could be seen between her brows.

“Zhao Yue, the she-villain!” The crowd cried out in shock.

Lu Zhou looked up and saw Zhao Yue. He could not sense any aura around Zhao Yue. Just as he had expected, her cultivation base had been sealed.

Kong Xuan maintained his Arhat Golden Body and said haughtily, “Benefactor, why must you go out of your way to make things difficult for me?”

“Wretched monk… If this is all you got, I advise you to bring your band of bald donkeys away with you before you run for your life!” Duan Xing bellowed angrily. Under the effects of his Four-leaf Golden Lotus Avatar, his aura was much more domineering compared to before.

Kong Xuan joined his palms together. “Since you insist on standing in my way, this old monk won’t hold back anymore.”

Boom!

The Arhat Golden Body disappeared, and Kong Xuan supported his chin with one hand as he sat on the ground. An Arhat Golden Body’s projection could be seen at this moment.

Bzzt.

The monks around the holy altar discarded their rods and joined their palms together. Apart from that, the monks around the flying chariot in the air had also moved into a new formation. Once again, the buzzing chants resounded in the holy altar.

Although Lu Zhou’s expression was calm, he was inwardly surprised. ‘Brahman Lullaby? This is bad! How am I supposed to withstand this with my cultivation base at the middle stage of the Sense Condensing Realm?’
