Peerless Martial God

“Hua Qing Feng, Godly Clouds’ First Master, lost again.” Many people in Godly Clouds City were astonished. Godly Clouds’ First Master had lost again!

Lin Feng didn’t let him off though, he continued chasing him at the speed of light while demanding, ”Say it!”

Fists were humming, preparing to renew the pummeling. A strong wind brushed against Hua Qing Feng’s body. He had lost. He couldn’t believe his eyes. He had thought he’d definitely finish first during the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, and at the very end, he had lost twice! He had suffered two crushing defeats! He felt humiliated, was he even going to continue battling?

I’ll have to reflect on my shortcomings after the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, thought Hua Qing Feng, before saying, “I, Hua Qing Feng, have lost.”

People in Godly Clouds City were shaking. Hua Qing Feng had admitted it! He ranked sixth now…

“Surprisingly, the most astonishing battles involved Zhou Rong Man and Lin Feng. Everybody thought they were going to get eliminated, and in the end the two of them defeated Hua Qing Feng. Nobody can doubt about their strength anymore!” nodded many people.

——

Five people were left on the battlefield. Kong Ming had defeated the deployment spell caster which meant Kong Ming was now fourth. The deployment spell caster had lost, but could he defeat the others? It was difficult to evaluate. He hadn’t fought against them personally, so he didn’t know.

One thing people were sure of now was that Hua Qing Feng wasn’t Godly Clouds’ First Master anymore, because Kong Ming wasn’t weaker than him, and Zhou Rong Man had defeated him, too. The First Master had to be someone else. Like Prince Wu Qing, he had to give up his title of First Master now. Lin Feng or Chu Chun Qiu would become the Dark Night Region’s First Master.

“Four people are left. You lost. You’re out,” said Zhou Rong Man to the Great Deployment Master. The Great Deployment Master grunted in a cold way. He had sealed himself in a deployment mine for such a long time, and had to start from the Huang Qi layer again. Initially, he had thought he’d finish first, but in the end had lost. Everybody was pointing at him: he was out!

Kong Ming’s Ten Thousand Celestial Buddha and Indestructible Golden Body make him terrifying. However, those people underestimate me! The Great Deployment Master stared at Zhou Rong Man defiantly.

Deployment marks appeared and flowed towards Zhou Rong Man. However, a thousand arms instantly appeared on Zhou Rong Man’s body, and he destroyed the deployment spell with pure strength.

Zhou Rong Man walked towards the opponent. He had attacked by surprise? Zhou Rong Man didn’t like that at all. The Great Deployment Master and Kong Ming’s battle had been beautiful, this one wouldn’t be beautiful.

The Great Deployment Master couldn’t defeat Zhou Rong Man, but it was going to be difficult for Zhou Rong Man because he was good in close combat, and the Great Deployment Master was a deployment spell caster. He wanted to prevent Zhou Rong Man from getting too close, and he could achieve that using deployment spells.

At that moment, Zhou Rong Man stopped and said to the Great Deployment Master, “What is the point of this kind of battle?”

“You’re going to lose it,” replied the Great Deployment Master coldly. Zhou Rong Man’s offense and defense were incredible but if he couldn’t get close, then the duel was useless.

The Great Deployment Master wasn’t wrong. In the end, he would win if he continued this way. He could also try to attack, but it was true that this kind of battle was boring.

“Zhou Rong Man’s weakness is speed. Even though he’s very fast, if a little thing prevents him from using his agility technique, then he’s stuck,” pontificated someone in the crowd.

Kong Ming said to the Great Deployment Master, “You’re a Great Scholar. Since you lost, admit it and leave.”

Lin Feng and Chu Chun Qiu were also staring at the Great Deployment Master. The Great Deployment Master’s face stiffened. He stood there with his hands clasped in his back and sighed. “The world has changed so much. New geniuses keep rising all the time. I’m out.”

As Kong Ming had said, that guy was a Great Scholar, why did he need to occupy the battle stage like that? It wasn’t that important anymore. Therefore, he moved aside and watched the remaining four people.

—

“The former first and second have been eliminated already, Hua Qing Feng ranks sixth and the terrifying deployment spell caster fifth. What about the four others?” everyone wondered. Hua Qing Feng and the deployment spell caster had been eliminated from the top four!

“Now, they’re four, Zhou Rong Man, Kong Ming, Chu Chun Qiu and Lin Feng. Zhou Rong Man and Kong Ming have similar abilities, they’re both incredible in terms of defense and offense. But Zhou Rong Man always uses pure physical strength, Kong Ming uses Buddhist techniques. Kong Ming has an Indestructible Golden Body. If they fight, I wonder who’ll win? Lin Feng and Chu Chun Qiu fought, but it was a draw…”

“Lin Feng, we were meant to meet again. We are four people left, Zhou Rong Man and Chu Chun Qiu can fight, and you and me can fight. Then, the winners fight one another and the losers fight one another,” Kong Ming said slowly and calmly.

“Kong Ming wants to fight against Lin Feng? He’s a Buddhist monk, Lin Feng is a Demon, their battle will probably be incredible!” The crowd was stirred up.

Lin Feng looked at Kong Ming. Kong Ming had an Indestructible Golden Body. He was much stronger than Zhuo Qing, who also had a king-type body too. Zhuo Qing had participated in the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds too, but he had been eliminated quite early. He hadn’t even finished in the top thirty. There was a huge difference between Zhuo Qing and Kong Ming.

“Alright!” Lin Feng nodded. Actually, Lin Feng was excited to duel Kong Ming and see how powerful his Buddhist techniques were!

“The winner will fight against me, and we’ll compete for first place!” smiled Zhou Rong Man.

Chu Chun Qiu was speechless. Did this guy think he was going to win no matter what?

People in Godly Clouds City rolled their eyes. Even though Zhou Rong Man was extremely strong, they had also seen how strong Chu Chun Qiu was. Zhou Rong Man was simply too funny.

Chu Chun Qiu released Sky Absorbing intent towards Zhou Rong Man and oppressed him. Chu Chun Qiu hoped he’d manage to absorb this guy’s incredible will.

——

On Lin Feng and Kong Ming’s side, Buddha’s halos flashed. 108 Golden Buddhas appeared behind Kong Ming.

Lin Feng released dazzling demon lights. A demon cloud appeared and surged forth. The Source of the Nine Netherworlds spread in the air, Demonic soundwaves resonated. The atmosphere was filled with Buddhist and demon energies.

The Nine Netherworlds Song resonated. The demon lights corroded the Buddha’s halos and started taking over.

“Nine Netherworlds Demonic Song, one of the strongest songs in the world. However, there’s also a Buddhist song: The Great Compassion Dhāraṇī, it delivers all living creatures from suffering and torment!” said Kong Ming with his eyes closed. He had turned into a golden body. The ten thousand things of creation couldn’t be corroded when they were protected by his Buddhist strength. The 108 Buddhas around him started chanting the Great Compassion Dhāraṇī at the same time, purifying everything.

The Great Compassion Dhāraṇī echoed far away. Everybody was surrounded by Buddhist halos, becoming selfless and calm.

——

Even the people in Godly Clouds City were affected, their hearts as calm as still water and selfless.

“What a powerful Buddhist song. The Great Compassion Dhāraṇī makes people want to give up fighting. However, they are fighting with it!” The sight shook many people. They realized that people around them had succumbed to the Great Compassion Dhāraṇī. They almost forgot that Kong Ming was using the Great Compassion Dhāraṇī to fight.

“The Nine Netherworlds Demonic Song attacks Kong Ming only. Kong Ming’s Great Compassion Dhāraṇī influences everybody. Kong Ming is probably stronger than Lin Feng!” analyzed some detached observers. The Buddhist lights oppressed the demon lights already.

“Where did that Bald Donkey learn the Great Compassion Dhāraṇī?” Xian Ren was astonished and staring at Kong Ming. That Buddhist monk was so mysterious and discreet, even though he was probably the strongest cultivator of Holy Mountain!
