Chapter 620 - 245: Battle at Jianan Temple
The cultivation system of Shixiu is like this; while the Immortal Dao condenses the Golden Core, they need to gather a Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss within their dantian.
Nurturing followers with this Pure Land, and breaking through the Great Brightness Realm by borrowing the Power of Faith from their prayers.
"Speed up, observe further at Celestial Aromatic Mountain!"
Hui Jie suppressed his excitement and spoke in a deep voice.
The monks on the auspicious clouds immediately unleashed strands of magical power, controlling the auspicious clouds to quickly fly towards Celestial Aromatic Mountain.
Moments later, the auspicious cloud arrived and hovered over Celestial Aromatic Mountain.
In the dense forest only ten miles away from Celestial Aromatic Mountain, the cultivators of the Shen Family saw the auspicious clouds above and clenched their magical artifacts tightly.
However, as Shen Chongming did not give an order, they naturally refrained from rash actions.
On the auspicious clouds, Hui Jie and Hui Jing stood separately on both sides, and after a sweep with their divine senses, seemingly found nothing unusual, their inner vigilance rapidly relaxed.
"It seems Junior Brother’s guess was right."
"The Shen Family probably assumes we at Jianan Temple would gather all forces to defend the Imperial City Zen Temple, engaging them in an open battle."
Hui Jie said, a sneer appearing on his face.
"They certainly wouldn’t expect us to take a detour and attack the city under their control."
"Junior Brother Hui Jing, this time we are destined to gain great merit..."
Just as the words fell, a fiery red arrow silently appeared a yard behind him.
"Senior Brother, be careful!"
Upon seeing the fiery red arrow, opposite him, Monk Hui Jing first froze in his expression and then suddenly punched towards Hui Jie’s head!
Hui Jie’s reaction was swift, slightly tilting his head, letting Hui Jing’s fist, glowing with rich golden light, graze his cheek and heavily smash onto the incoming arrow!
Boom!
The fiery red arrow crashed onto the golden fist and the blue jewel at the arrow’s tip suddenly exploded!
A massive wave of terrifying thunder power raged, directly engulfing the duo!
[Purple Thunder Break Extreme] is the secret skill Shen Chongming comprehended through bloodline evolution, although not flawless enough to imprint in the bloodline yet, its abnormal power is nonetheless formidable.
Possessing Fetal Breathing Perfection, the thunder power contained within the [Purple Thunder Break Extreme] secret skill is difficult to resist even for cultivators of the same realm.
Hui Jing’s punch may have prevented Hui Jie’s fatal crisis, but the exploding thunder power by a twist of fate injured both.
Their monk robes were instantly torn apart by the thunder revealing their golden-glowing physiques.
Shixiu are mostly monsters who cultivate both body and techniques, each individual has an incredibly strong physical body.
The golden light on the bodies of Hui Jing and Hui Jie offset most of the thunder’s destructive force; otherwise, the tempestuous thunder power would have torn them apart!
"There’s an ambush!"
Blood dripped from Hui Jing’s mouth; he scanned his surroundings with a grim expression.
Since Hui Jie was closer to the core of the [Purple Thunder Break Extreme] secret skill’s power eruption, he was more severely injured than Hui Jing.
The flesh on the right side of his face was charred by the thunder, exposing eerie white bones, looking quite terrifying.
The excruciating pain caused spasms across his facial muscles, and a violent color intensified in his narrowed eyes.
Surveying around and failing to locate the ambusher’s form, Hui Jie sneered coldly.
"Alright, alright."
"They are indeed waiting for us here."
As he spoke, he formed formulas with both hands and magical power surged within him.
In an instant, massive golden palms descended from the sky, indiscriminately bombing the Celestial Aromatic Mountain below!
Although divine sense didn’t reveal the ambusher’s form, instinct told him the enemy was surely hidden in the forest below.
"This old bald monk is indeed decisive..."
Watching the towering Celestial Aromatic Mountain in the distance with its peaks being crushed one after another by golden palms, rocks splintering, dust rising.
In the forest, Shen Chongming chuckled coldly and waved his hand.
Upon receiving his command, numerous Shen Family cultivators in the forest immediately formed formulas.
The wave induced by the magic formulas stirred up the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, instantly attracting the attention of those Jianan Temple Shixiu above Celestial Aromatic Mountain.
"They’re there!"
"Not good, quickly dodge!"
Though Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators are insignificance in the eyes of Fetal Breathing Realm.
If thousands of Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators simultaneously unleash techniques in indiscriminate attacks, such power even Fetal Breathing Perfection would not dare to withstand head-on.
In the forest below, thousands of Shen Family cultivators formed formulas simultaneously, causing surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to become volatile!
In an instant, various Five Elements Techniques rained down towards the Jianan Temple cultivators on the auspicious clouds!
Energy from various Water Arrows, Wood Stakes, Seas of Fire, and Golden Radiance Techniques erupted directly shattered the auspicious clouds that many Jianan Temple monks were on.
Some Jianan Temple monks caught off guard were engulfed by various techniques and promptly perished, their path toward eternal bliss concluded.
"Kill!"
Upon revealing their forms while unleashing techniques, many Shen Family cultivators promptly surged forward in attack, seizing the chaos in Jianan Temple ranks!
Shen Chongming wasn’t idle either.
His sneak attack dealt damage to both Hui Jie and Hui Jing; now he intended to press the advantage and first eliminate one of them.
Only by doing so could he fully focus on the other, ensuring they couldn’t interfere in the low-tier cultivators’ battlefield.
"Croak!"
"I haven’t tasted bald monk before; wonder what their flesh tastes like!"
From the mountain forest, golden light suddenly rushed towards the heavily injured Hui Jie!
The golden light was precisely the Golden Toad.
Last time, during a massive harvest, he and the Silver Thread Centipede along with the Centipede Leader devoured several Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm cultivators’ corpses and many cultivators of Fushan Country; their cultivation had long restored to the previous Late Stage of Fetal Breathing peak, only a step away from the Realm of Perfection.
