Martial Arts Crossover: The Sweeping Monk of Wudang? That's our patriarch!

Several days later.

They reached the summit and stood before the gate of Cihang Jingzhai.

At this moment, Fan Qinghui and Liao Kong had led the remaining forces of the two factions to gather in the square and line up in formation to wait.

They already knew about it when traces appeared at the foot of the mountain.

But they did not flee.

Knowing there was no escape, they decided to face the challenge head-on.

"Second Master Yu!" Fan Qinghui raised her eyes, her voice cold and clear. "We have already admitted defeat, why are you so determined to wipe us out? Wudang is also a reputable and righteous sect, do you really intend to exterminate us all?"

Yu Lianzhou remained calm, but his gaze was sharp as a blade.

"I don't trust Master Fan's character."

"Wudang is indeed a righteous sect, but it never shows mercy to its enemies."

"Since you are Buddhists, you should have heard of the Shaolin Temple."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.

Fan Qinghui and Liao Kong's expressions changed drastically.

Who doesn't know how the Shaolin Temple disappeared from the martial arts world?

In that instant, they understood—today, they would face life and death.

Strangely, when despair descended, their expressions calmed down.

"Please, Master, intervene and slay this villain!"

Two sounds rang out almost simultaneously.

Immediately afterwards—

"Ugh."

"Ugh."

As two soft sighs fell, it was as if a rift had been torn open in the void, and a monk and a nun appeared out of thin air, standing steadily in front of Yu Lianzhou and the others.

The old monk was gaunt and thin, the old nun aloof and serene, their auras as calm and still as fallen leaves in the mountains. Yet Yu Lianzhou felt a sudden tightness in his heart, a chill creeping up his spine.

Just now, he clearly heard Fan Qinghui and Liaokong call out "Ancestor Master" in unison.

In a flash, rumors about Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Chan Buddhism surged into my mind.

"A celestial monk? An earthly nun?"

His eyes narrowed, and the Black Child instantly emerged from his sleeve, transforming into a dark battle shadow standing beside him, asking in a deep voice.

"It is indeed this humble monk."

"It is indeed this humble nun."

The two nodded slightly, their tone indifferent as frost.

The Heavenly Monk's gaze swept over Yu Lianzhou, his voice calm yet devoid of any warmth: "Second Hero Yu, my sister and I are nearing the end of our lives and originally did not wish to incur further bloodshed. But you have pressed us relentlessly, forcing us to a secluded place like Emperor's Peak... then don't blame us for sending you on your way."

They were old, and each fight they waged was a burning of their remaining lives. They would never start a war unless they were driven to desperation.

But the Jingnian Zen sect had already retreated to nowhere, even abandoning its mountain gates and hiding in the extreme cold of the mountain peaks, yet this person still refused to give up—his anger had already been ignited.

"Senior brother, why bother with words?" Di Ni's eyes turned cold, his tone contemptuous. "A mere youth who has just stepped into the realm of terrestrial immortals, just crush him."

Before she finished speaking, her palm had already struck.

boom--!

The sky seemed to be torn apart, and the palm force was like an abyss overturning, crushing down and heading straight for Yu Lianzhou's face!

At the same instant, the Heavenly Monk also raised his palm to meet the Black Child.

boom!boom!

Two loud explosions echoed through the valley, and figures flew through the air.

Yu Lianzhou slammed into the rock wall, a sweet taste rose in his throat, and blood spilled from the corner of his lips.

"Huh? He's not dead?"

Dini raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

They had already reached the realm of celestial beings on land hundreds of years ago; with a single palm strike, even ordinary immortals should have been annihilated. Who would have thought that Yu Lianzhou and that strange child were still alive?

On the other side, Yu Lianzhou pushed himself up and smiled bitterly to himself.

"Strong...too strong. They're not even in the same league as us."

Without the slightest hesitation, he clenched his fingers, and with a snap, the jade pendant bestowed by Lin Daochen shattered.

He had originally intended to fight the Black Child head-on, but this palm strike made him realize the vast difference in strength; he had no choice but to ask for help.

Boom—!

The moment the jade shattered, the world suddenly brightened.

Countless streams of light converged and took shape, and a figure slowly emerged.

Dressed in white, with an air of profound composure, her eyes seemed to hold the swirling stars in the sky.

"Master Dao Chen!!"

The entire audience erupted in uproar.

Apart from a few who already knew the details, everyone else was speechless with astonishment. No one had expected that Lin Daochen could descend upon the scene in such a miraculous way.

Even the celestial monks and earthly nuns had their pupils shrink slightly at this moment.

Having lived for hundreds of years and witnessed countless changes in the world, such methods were unheard of. For a moment, they dared not make a move.

"Master Uncle, your junior disciple is incompetent, please help."

Yu Lianzhou quickly stepped forward and explained the whole story in a few words.

Lin Daochen smiled gently and said softly, "There's no need to blame yourself. They've cultivated for hundreds of years longer than you, and they're even stronger now. What's so strange about that?"

"When you reach their age, you'll probably be able to suppress them with a wave of your hand."

After offering a reassuring remark, he flicked his sleeve, and the Heavenly Prison Sword hummed and trembled in his hand.

He immediately turned around, his gaze falling on the Heavenly Monk and the Earthly Nun, and said calmly, "Come at me together."

Although this divine consciousness avatar only possessed 70% of the power of the original body, the two people before it were no longer at their peak.

His pale complexion and weak breathing were clear signs that his lifespan was nearing its end. A few more battles and he would collapse without a fight.

Therefore, even though he was merely an incarnation descending to earth, Lin Daochen remained calm and composed when facing two celestial beings on land.

If we really reach our limit, we can simply burn our spirit.

That's right, he can also use the "Burning Spirit Explosion Technique". It's about 70% effective, but more than enough to deal with these two old guys who are on their last legs.

In short, everything is under control.

"I never expected that Master Dao Chen would possess such skills. This humble monk... is truly impressed."

When the monk spoke, his tone was already hesitant.

He didn't want to fight.

I really don't want to.

Although he lived in seclusion in the Jingnian Chan sect and did not concern himself with the conflicts of the martial arts world, the title of Dao Chen Zhenren of Wudang was still personally reported by the contemporary abbot, Liao Kong.

He knew that Lin Daochen was a genuine terrestrial celestial being with unfathomable strength.

Fighting someone of this caliber would only hasten the depletion of his and Dini's already dwindling lifespans.

Therefore, he is unwilling to take action unless he is forced into a corner.

Will Lin Daochen give him this "unwilling" opportunity?

Yu Lianzhou has already summoned his divine avatar; does he still think he can escape unscathed? What a fool's dream!

"Not good."

"Now that I've come, I won't leave empty-handed."

"Today is the day Cihang Jingzhai is expelled from the list." Lin Daochen's tone was calm, but every word was like a knife.

The monk and nun's expressions suddenly darkened.

"Master Dao Chen, you dare to claim you can destroy my Jingzhai with just an avatar? Do you really think you are no match for my fellow disciples and I working together?"

"You may give it a try."

Lin Daochen's expression was indifferent, his eyes as deep as an abyss.

"Very well! Then we two will experience your superior skills today!" the Heavenly Monk said coldly. "It seems you are destined to perish on Emperor's Peak!"

Before she could finish speaking, Di Ni suddenly let out a cold laugh, her gaze sharp as lightning: "Dao Chen Zhenren, if I'm not mistaken—you are merely manifesting your divine consciousness, not your true self, are you?"

Lin Daochen chuckled: "Indeed. This is a wisp of my divine consciousness, not my true self."

He stood with his hands behind his back, speaking leisurely: "You were able to see through it at a glance; that's quite remarkable. You must have studied the ways of the spirit quite well."

He paused, then added casually, "No wonder... you once shared a deep and abiding love with the Demon Emperor Xie Tiao, and even the Cihang Sword Manual was derived from his 'Records of Demonic Thoughts'."

"In the end, your Cihang Jingzhai is nothing more than a branch that split off from the Great Sui Demonic Sect. Heh, the distinction between good and evil is sometimes not so clear-cut."

These words caused a huge shock throughout the room!

Fan Qinghui and other Cihang disciples looked ashen-faced, their hearts reeling.

The sect they revered, which always considered itself the leader of the righteous path and regarded the demonic sect as its mortal enemy, could never have imagined that its founder was once the lover of the Demon Emperor? And that its sect's attack methods actually originated from the demonic scriptures?

Absurd! Horrifying!

The young marshal's side was in an uproar.

No one expected that this old nun's past would be so shocking!

Xu Xingzhi's eyes lit up, and he quickly approached Kou Zhong, whispering, "Young Marshal, this information is a powerful weapon! After we wipe out Cihang Jingzhai today, we will announce this to the world—let everyone see that the so-called 'leader of the righteous path' is nothing more than a remnant of the demonic sect in disguise!"

"Brilliant!" A cold glint flashed in Kou Zhong's eyes. "Just what I wanted. These hypocrites will not find peace in life, and they will be infamous for eternity in death!"

On the other side, Dini's face was as black as ink.

She knew better than anyone that if this secret were to be exposed, the century-old foundation of Cihang Jingzhai would collapse in an instant.

"Senior brother," she said in a low, hoarse voice, "killing all these people today isn't enough... we must make a trip to Wudang."

There is only one goal—to kill Lin Daochen, sever his roots, and silence his words!

The celestial monk nodded slowly.

Knowing everything that had happened, he naturally understood the implications.

The two terrestrial celestial beings were now consumed by murderous intent, with no way out.

Lin Daochen looked at them and suddenly smiled.

Two old men, their lives hanging by a thread, still dare to dream of defying fate?

ridiculous.

Both sides were already intent on killing each other; there was no need for further words, they were just waiting for the thunderous strike.

"Dao Chen!" Di Ni roared, her sword energy soaring to the sky, "Today I will first destroy your avatar, then slaughter your true form! The entire Wudang sect will surely shed rivers of blood for this battle!"

Before he finished speaking, a vast sword aura swept across the sky like the surging Yangtze River, tearing through the void and slashing straight at Lin Daochen's head!

The ultimate skill of the Cihang Sword Manual - Sword Qi Yangtze River!

At the same time, the Heavenly Monk clenched his palms into a knife and struck out with a thunderous roar!

boom--!!!

A golden Buddha palm tore through the sky, and a powerful, dragon-like golden palm force crashed down from the heavens, heading straight for Lin Daochen's head.

The combined power of two celestial beings at the Land Realm is terrifying! Their sword energy is like frost, their palm strikes like a prison; in an instant, the wind and clouds reverse, and the world changes color.

The emperor stepped atop the peak, causing the void to tremble, as if even the heavens themselves were shaking.

"Master, Grandmaster Uncle... can you hold on?"

Kou Zhong's gaze was fixed on the battlefield, his tone filled with worry as he asked Yu Lianzhou beside him in a low voice.

Even though his grandmaster was renowned throughout the land, the combined attack of the Heavenly Monk and the Earthly Nun was so powerful and terrifying that he couldn't help but feel his heart pounding.

"No need to worry."

Yu Lianzhou remained unmoved, his voice as calm as a still well, "Uncle-Master, invincible."

Before the words were even finished, the battle situation changed drastically!

boom--!!!

Lin Daochen made a move!

With his right hand, the Heavenly Prison Sword cleaved through the void, unleashing a profound sword technique. In an instant, a river of sword energy appeared out of thin air, stretching across the sky!

Vast as a torrent, raging as a raging tide, carrying the force of thunder, it crashed head-on into the Yangtze River of sword energy unleashed by Di Ni!

The two sword intents collided wildly in mid-air, devouring and annihilating each other, closing the distance between them!

At the same time as he swung his sword, his left hand formed a hand seal!

Rumble—!!

Thunderclouds surged in the sky, and a thick, dragon-like bolt of purple lightning tore through the heavens, striking the golden Buddha palm of the Heavenly Monk!

In the same instant, they directly confronted two celestial beings from the terrestrial realm! Instead of retreating, they advanced and engaged in a fierce battle!

boom!boom!

Two massive explosions rang out almost simultaneously, shaking the mountains!

The Heavenly River of Sword Qi and the Yangtze River of Sword Qi shattered with a deafening roar, and the thunder and the Buddha's palm were also annihilated in mid-air!

The expressions of the heavenly monk and the earthly nun changed simultaneously!

This person actually fought two opponents head-on without being at a disadvantage!

"Junior sister, watch out!"

The celestial monk said in a deep voice, "This person's strength is extraordinary!"

After speaking, he raised his palm again, and golden light surged forth!

Dini also looked solemn, and with a flick of his longsword, the sword energy was like a rainbow!

The former senior and junior disciples, their minds in sync, unleashed a barrage of palm strikes and sword light from opposite directions, attacking Lin Daochen from both ends!

Click—!

In the blink of an eye, Lin Daochen's figure vanished, flashing like lightning, narrowly avoiding the combined attack!

The next instant, he appeared in front of Dini!

boom--!!!

A chilling, frost-like white sword aura slashed down!

Dini reacted extremely quickly, raising his sword to block. The blades collided, and a shockwave exploded!

The Heavenly Monk followed closely behind, launching a relentless offensive!

Bang bang bang—!

The great war has completely broken out!

Three figures flashed across the mountaintop, each move deadly and each strike capable of scorching the heavens!

In the blink of an eye, the Dita Peak Mountain Gate Square was swallowed up by billowing dust!

Various sword energies crisscrossed, purple lightning surged, golden palms stood like mountains... Countless forces collided fiercely, exploding into a sky full of dazzling light rain, like a galaxy falling to earth, breathtakingly beautiful!

The lingering aftershocks were even more terrifying, transforming into a destructive torrent that swept in all directions, forcing the Young Marshal's Army and the Cihang Jingzhai members to retreat repeatedly, not daring to get close at all!

At this level of confrontation, let alone intervening, even a slight misstep could result in annihilation for a mere spectator!

Both sides held their breath and remained motionless, their eyes fixed intently on the center of the battlefield.

The outcome will determine life or death!

But the ending came faster than anyone expected!

In just a few dozen moves, Lin Daochen caught a flaw in the cooperation between the Heavenly Monk and the Earthly Nun!
