The Eastern Emperor of all Heavens did not wish to become a Buddha.

Chapter 40 Slaying a Half-Step Exterior
Not only Meng Qi, but also Zhang Yuanshan, Jiang Zhiwei and others were stunned for a moment, and their hands paused for a moment.

It should be noted that while the demon race may have lower comprehension and be unable to comprehend more advanced techniques compared to humans, they possess a significant advantage in physique and strength.

The power displayed by this wolf demon at the half-step outer realm level just now proves this point; even ordinary martial artists of the same level would probably not dare to confront it head-on.

Everyone was ready to take action and join forces to deal with this monster.

Before they could even make a move, the monk Fahai, who was only at the seventh level of cultivation, actually defeated the wolf demon at the half-step outer realm level head-on, and he seemed to be doing it all with ease.

How can this be?

The crowd was momentarily stunned as they stared at the shattered ground beneath the white-robed monk's feet.

Isn't this Zen Master Fahai a beast in human skin?

Xiao Meng, who had cultivated the Golden Bell Cover and the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts, was already considered to have incredible strength, almost like a humanoid beast. However, compared to this Zen Master Fahai, he seemed quite normal.

On the other side, after defeating the wolf demon at the half-step outer realm level, Zhong Xu clenched his fist, a knowing look in his eyes.

The Secret Realm Technique truly lives up to its reputation as a combat method focused on self-discovery; it is indeed powerful. Now, his physique and strength even surpass those of ordinary half-step Outer Realm cultivators.

'The methods of the One Lifetime are essentially methods for seeking the Dao; if we're only considering direct combat power, the methods of the Secret Realm are more specialized and suitable.'

As thoughts raced through his mind, Zhong Xu's gaze shifted, turning to the demonic clouds in the sky.

"Third brother!"

An angry voice rang out, and a lion-headed demon rode the black wind, hurtling towards Zhong Xu. It was yet another half-step Outer Realm level demon.

Before its figure even landed, the lion-headed monster opened its blood-red maw, which swelled to the size of the temple gate, and an immense suction force emanated from it, causing a fierce gale to howl around it, threatening to swallow Zhong Xu whole.

'Holy crap, a descendant of the Blue Lion Monster?'

Looking at the lion-headed monster with its gaping maw in the sky, Zhong Xu's mind was filled with the image of the Green Lion Monster from Journey to the West, who was said to be able to swallow 100,000 heavenly soldiers.

Although the lion-headed monster in front of him was far inferior to the Green Lion Monster, Zhong Xu had no intention of going inside its belly.

He quickly formed a mudra with his hands, and a bright and clear swastika appeared.

In a daze, a slightly illusory golden Buddha appeared behind Zhong Xu.

The moment the swastika symbol hurtled forward, the golden Buddha's hand rose and slammed down on the lion-headed demon with its gaping maw.

"what!"

Seeing the illusory palm raised by the golden Buddha, the lion-headed demon felt a chill run down its spine. It had an irresistible urge to convert to Buddhism and quickly withdrew its innate supernatural power, swinging its long staff towards the golden Buddha's palm.

Bang

The air exploded with a loud bang, and a strong gust of air scattered in all directions. The lion-headed demon was instantly sent flying, following in the footsteps of the wolf demon before it.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Before Meng Qi and the others could react, another half-step Outer Realm level demon was sent flying.

Looking at the white-robed monk whose aura seemed to have not changed much, everyone felt an indescribable shock.

With only seven orifices of cultivation, he possessed combat power that almost crushed ordinary half-step outer realm cultivators. Even the core disciples of the top sects in the main world could not achieve this. What exactly is the background of this Zen Master Fahai?
Among the crowd, Meng Qi looked at the somewhat illusory golden Buddha behind Zen Master Fahai, and suddenly had a different understanding of Buddhism. The Golden Bell Cover in his body became more flexible, and he was vaguely about to break through to the seventh level.

'This is.'

Sensing the changes in his own cultivation technique, a strange thought arose in Meng Qi's mind:

The Buddha's Palm!
Only the true meaning of the Tathagata Palm could cause such a significant change in the Golden Bell Cover within his body.

After all, many of the martial arts techniques of Shaolin Temple are basically derived from the third move of the "Buddha's Palm" technique, "Smiling with a Flower"!
This Zen Master Fahai received the transmission of a certain move of the Tathagata Palm.

The thought crossed Meng Qi's mind, and his gaze faltered slightly.

Does the world of Jade Dynasty have the legacy of the peerless divine skill "Buddha's Palm"?
On the other side, after knocking away the lion-headed monster, Zhong Xu's heart stirred, and his eyes suddenly looked into the distance, his gaze slightly narrowed.

'They came so fast!'

boom

With a thunderous roar beneath his feet, he appeared directly in front of the wolf demon who had just stood up. The wolf demon, surrounded by demonic energy, was healing itself using its extraordinary regenerative abilities when a strong sense of crisis suddenly arose in its heart.

When it looked up, its vision was completely filled by a hand as large as a mountain, and it felt as if the surrounding air had been compressed and solidified.

"Roar!"

Driven by a strong sense of crisis, the wolf demon raised its claws with all its might, trying to block the hand that was about to fall on it.

Bang

A dull thud rang out, and the wolf demon let out a miserable howl. Black wind swirled around it, and it tried to use its demonic energy to climb higher again.

Their demon race possesses innate supernatural abilities, allowing them to fly on the wind even at the half-step outer realm level.

Once it can fly, this human will be absolutely unable to attack it anymore.

It was now somewhat afraid of this strange human whose physique was even more abnormal than that of its demon race.

"Want to go?"

The aura within Zhong Xu's body changed; within the pure and peaceful Buddhist light, a wisp of pure and extreme demonic nature faintly appeared, carrying an endless sense of depravity and destruction.

In an instant, the wolf demon's heart was filled with countless negative emotions, his eyes turned blood red, and his movements froze for a moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, an all-encompassing Yin-Yang Taiji diagram appeared in Zhong Xu's Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm. It was as if illusory portals opened within his body, making it more profound, and his own energy became increasingly vast.

His palm rose again, like an ancient divine mountain, filling the heavens and earth, immense and powerful, causing the surrounding air to continuously collapse.

boom

The palm landed directly on the head of the wolf demon, which was entangled in demonic energy. A huge roar resounded, and its wolf head exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

Withdrawing his hand, Zhong Xu held a smooth bead in his palm, which was the inner core of the wolf demon, containing its cultivation of over a hundred years.

After twitching, the headless wolf demon collapsed to the ground and was taken by Zhong Xu to meet Buddha.

In just a few moves, he directly killed a half-step Outer Realm level demon.

"Third brother!"

A voice filled with grief and indignation rang out. The lion-headed demon, having recovered from its earlier attack, witnessed the wolf demon being killed.

But before he could finish speaking, he sensed that the powerful human had turned his gaze to him. The lion-headed demon trembled and, no longer caring about avenging his third brother, hurriedly summoned the Black Wind and prepared to take off.

This human is terrifying; only the eldest brother can deal with him.

Zhong Xu moved his feet, intending to send this lion-headed monster to see the Buddha and reunite with its third brother.

But the next moment, his eyes flickered slightly, and his figure vanished from the spot.

Sizzle sizzle

As soon as the figure disappeared, crimson feathers, like sharp arrows, were embedded in the spot where Zhong Xu had been standing.

A monster with fiery red wings on its back approached from afar, hovering in mid-air, holding a crimson spear, cautiously watching Zhong Xu who appeared in another direction. It was another monster at the half-step outer realm level.

Seeing this, Meng Qi and the others snapped out of their daze at Zhong Xu's killing of the half-step Outer Realm level demon and quickly prepared to lend a helping hand.

Moo!
Just then, a series of bull mooing sounds rang out, and three bull-headed, human-bodied demons rode the black wind and roared in. All of them were half-step Outer Realm level demons.

So many half-step level monsters!

When Meng Qi and the others saw the newly appeared three-headed bull demon, they couldn't help but want to curse the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Including the wolf demon that was just killed by Zen Master Fahai, there are now six half-step Outer Realm level demons here.

Among them, Luo Shengyi, the strongest cultivator, was only at the Nine Apertures level. The Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation truly thought highly of them.
