The world reincarnates, each time a new talent!

201: Seize Taixuan Sutra, besiege Ningyuan!”Senior Brother, do not hesitate! These people harbor ill intentions. If we defect now, do you think they will let us go?”

Min Rou hurriedly shouted, ”They are all famous figures of the Martial Forest. Once they obtain the supreme art, they will surely return to the Central Plains. How could they be willing to let today’s events spread? When the time comes, anyone not on the same boat as them will definitely be killed to keep them silent.”

Hearing this, Shi Qing also reacted immediately, his expression turning wary.

Because what Min Rou said was correct.

After these people obtained the Tai Xuan Sutra, it was naturally impossible for them to continue staying on Xia Ke Island forever.

If that were the case, there would be no need to go to such great lengths to obtain the supreme art.

Returning home in glory is the goal; otherwise, it’s like walking in the dark wearing fine silk.

”It seems there’s nothing more to say. Today, anyone unwilling to walk with us must be eliminated to prevent future trouble.”

A Bearded Strongman shouted loudly.

Immediately, many people echoed him, surrounding Shi Qing, Min Rou, and their group.

Xiang Wentian’s brow furrowed. He had originally intended to let Shi Qing see Yue Buqun’s true colors and help expose him, causing his reputation to be utterly ruined.

But now, it seemed there was no chance.

”Fine, as long as Yue Buqun can be eliminated, the matter of destroying his reputation isn’t that important. I only resorted to that plan before because I couldn’t kill him.”

Xiang Wentian thought silently to himself.

While the crowd dealt with Shi Qing, even more people surged into the final stone chamber.

”Brother Long, what should we do?”

Island Master Mu couldn’t help but ask.

Island Master Long also looked contemplative, feeling somewhat conflicted.

They didn’t want things to become so tense, but what Xiang Wentian and the others said also made a lot of sense.

Although the other party had previously promised to share the Tai Xuan Sutra with them if he could comprehend it, it was, after all, just empty words.

Once he truly comprehended the supreme art, whether he would still abide by that agreement would be up to him. At that time, even if the two of them joined forces, they might not be his match.

If the other party had only comprehended a portion of the martial arts, even if he went further than them, Long and Mu would not have allowed things to develop this way. Because it would only be a portion, everyone could study it together and continue researching the subsequent content.

But now, the other party had already comprehended the entire Tai Xuan Sutra, so how things would develop was uncertain.

That was not something they could control.

And having lost the ability to control the situation, if the other party was willing to tell them the technique, they would know; if not, there was nothing they could do.

Thus, while the two were hesitating, many people had already bypassed them and rushed into the final stone chamber.

The two saw all this but chose to remain silent and did not stop them.

Clearly, the crowd also understood the thoughts of Long and Mu.

The two couldn’t bring themselves to do such a thing for the sake of their Face, but they didn’t stop it either.

”Now is the time!”

”Strike immediately, otherwise it will be too late once he wakes from his enlightenment.”

As the crowd burst into the final stone chamber, they immediately saw Ning Yuan sitting cross-legged in mid-air. After recovering from their shock, they immediately shouted.

At this moment, the crowd couldn’t be bothered with shock and immediately attacked.

Streaks of Sword Qi, Saber Qi, and palm energy all rushed toward Ning Yuan simultaneously.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Ning Yuan’s Bei Ming Divine Skill automatically protected his body, acting like an abyss, swallowing all the energy completely.

After a moment, the crowd finally noticed something was wrong.

”Not good, this person’s Cultivation Technique is bizarre and can automatically protect his body. Our True Qi is useless against him; we must use weapons and physical strikes.”

Someone reminded the others at this point.

Everyone present had once been a leader of a sect with exceptional vision. They saw the problem at a glance and immediately drew the longswords at their waists and charged.

Seeing this, others also leaped up one after another.

Since they had already acted, they had no way back.

Now, they either succeeded or could only wait for the other party to wake up and kill them in return.

Everyone understood this point and used their full strength at this moment.

Sabers, swords, hidden weapons, and various exotic weapons all smashed toward Ning Yuan, leaving no blind spots.

Boom!

With a roar, all the weapons stopped three inches away from Ning Yuan’s body.

A layer of invisible Protective Aura blocked all these weapons.

However, it was visible to the naked eye that the Protective Aura on Ning Yuan’s body was gradually distorting.

Because there were too many experts attacking this time.

These people had stayed on Xia Ke Island for thirty years, studying martial arts every day. Even if they only understood the basics, it had allowed them all to reach the first-class Realm.

In the current Central Plains, it would be impossible to gather so many first-class experts.

With so many experts, let alone an ultra-first-class one, even an Aperture Opening Martial Artist who had just reached the Dao Foundation would feel a certain amount of pressure.

Under such a powerful impact, Ning Yuan’s mental consciousness also began to shake. Points of light swayed before his eyes, and the dark Void Realm began to distort, breaking Ning Yuan’s state of enlightenment.

”Who is it!”

Ning Yuan roared in anger, his eyes gradually turning red.

Just a little more, just a little more.

He could have deduced the subsequent technique for ascending to the Golden Core.

But now, it had been ruined by someone.

Boom!

Accompanied by a powerful Aura erupting from Ning Yuan’s body, everyone around was sent flying by a strong force. The weapons in their hands flew out, piercing into the surrounding stone walls like they were cutting through tofu.

Sitting cross-legged in mid-air, Ning Yuan also suddenly opened his eyes, which revealed an unprecedented anger.

Entering the enlightenment state of the Tai Xuan Sutra with forty-nine times Comprehension Ability to open his mind—this state was something even his forty-nine times Comprehension Ability couldn’t compare to, nor could even a hundred times Comprehension Ability.

Because no matter how high one’s comprehension was, one still needed to deduce from start to finish and required enough reference material.

But the state entered by opening the mind was like standing at a high point of the martial path and looking back at the lower Realms. Therefore, the techniques deduced were more perfect.

If given more time, he could have even written out a Golden Core technique.

Even a technique for the Divine Ability Realm.

But now, it had been ruined by someone.

And this kind of state was something that could be sought but not easily found. Even if he stacked a hundred times Comprehension Ability in the future, he might not be able to reach such a state.

Especially since entering this state caused his power to increase rapidly.

In just this short while, his cultivation Realm had actually surpassed that of the Tian Long World.

One must know that in the Tian Long World, he had absorbed two to three hundred years of internal power!

And this brief moment was equivalent to gaining over a hundred years of internal power out of thin air.

If given just a bit more time, he might have been able to directly step into the second Realm of the Dao Foundation, shedding his mortal body and exchanging his bones!

But now, everything was gone.

Vanished into nothingness.

How could Ning Yuan not be hateful?

”You... you actually dared to strike at me?”

Ning Yuan’s Face was full of fury as he slowly stood up, looking down at the crowd below from his high vantage point. ”Do you have any idea what you’ve done?”

”Yue Buqun!”

Seeing Yue Buqun wake up, many people gasped.

Such a posture and such an Aura were terrifying.

However, some were still defiant and snorted coldly, ”Junior, is this how your elders taught you to speak to your Seniors?”

”I forgot about that. Your elders all died thirty years ago. No wonder you’re so lacking in manners.”

Someone who knew about the conflict between the Sword and Qi factions of Mount Hua spoke mockingly.

Back then, if it hadn’t been for the internal strife between the Sword and Qi factions, where all the experts died or were injured, there should have been people from the Mount Hua Sect on Xia Ke Island today as well.

”Seeking death!”

Ning Yuan’s gaze turned cold. He didn’t care about the deaths of the Mount Hua ancestors, but since this person dared to mock him like this, there was nothing more to say.

Ning Yuan’s figure flashed. With his current profound internal power, even if it wasn’t a top-tier movement technique, he displayed a world-class speed no less than that of Dongfang Bubai.

Ning Yuan slammed a palm onto the crown of the speaker’s head, and the Bei Ming Divine Skill began to operate. ”Since you all ruined my cultivation, I’ll just use you to Cultivate and make up for my losses!”

As the Bei Ming Divine Skill operated, an invisible vortex appeared in Ning Yuan’s palm, instantly draining the other party’s internal power.

The energy then flowed into one of his apertures.

Now that Ning Yuan had directly entered the Dao Foundation and opened his apertures, his strength could be said to have reached its current strongest state.

”What kind of martial art is this?”

The people nearby immediately noticed Ning Yuan’s actions, and shock appeared on their Faces.

But Xiang Wentian’s eyes widened, and he couldn’t help but cry out, ”It’s the Cult Leader’s Star Absorbing Skill!”

”Yue Buqun, you really did kill the Cult Leader and mastered his Star Absorbing Skill!”

”Star Absorbing Skill?”

Hearing this name, many people showed expressions of alarm.

After all, this was the supreme art of the Sun Moon Divine Sect.

Although their strength had soared on Xia Ke Island, thirty years ago in the Central Plains, they had always lived under the shadow of the Sun Moon Divine Sect, so they naturally knew of this supreme art.

”What a fine Huashan Sect Leader, to actually practice a demonic sect’s supreme art! We truly cannot let you live. Fellow comrades, let’s attack together and eliminate this scourge for the Righteous Path today!”

An old man raised his saber and shouted loudly.

”Well said! Everyone has the right to punish those of the demonic sect. This Yue Buqun practices a Demonic Technique and has usurped the positions of Five Mountains Alliance Chief and leader of the Righteous Path. He is definitely a great source of disaster. We must not let him leave Xia Ke Island.”

”Great Master Miaodi, Daoist Tianxu, Daoist Yucha, what do you think?”

Someone shouted toward the back.

The experts from Wudang and Shaolin also appeared in the stone chamber, their expressions solemn.

”amitabha, we were originally unwilling to participate in this matter, but since Headmaster Yue has practiced the demonic Star Absorbing Skill, for the sake of the Righteous Path, we have no choice but to act.”

Miaodi chanted a Buddhist name, his expression grave.

He was the previous generation’s abbot of Shaolin and was already one of the top experts in the world. After more than thirty years on Xia Ke Island, his internal power had become even more profound, making him one of the strongest people alive.

Previously, he had held onto his status and thus had not participated in the siege of Ning Yuan.

”Headmaster Yue, demonic martial arts must not be practiced. As long as Headmaster Yue is willing to cripple your Star Absorbing Skill, we can act as if this never happened.”

Daoist Yucha also spoke up.

He was the previous Sect Head of Wudang and a close friend of Miaodi; the two had been invited to Xia Ke Island together.

And with the addition of these three, the pressure they brought would be even greater than before.

It was just a pity that if it were the Ning Yuan who had first arrived on the island, he might not have been a match for the three of them combined.

But now, things were completely different.

Although the state of enlightenment had been brief, it had allowed Ning Yuan’s cultivation to directly break through the Bottleneck and reach the Aperture Opening Realm again.

It wasn’t even just entering the Realm; he had directly opened a hundred apertures throughout his body and condensed True Qi.

He could condense the nine innate apertures at any time to reach the Middle Stage of Aperture Opening, the Aperture Connection Realm.

”Want me to cripple my own martial arts?”

Ning Yuan felt as if he had heard some huge joke and couldn’t help but laugh out loud. ”You two really like to joke. Not to mention that what I, Yue, practice is not the Star Absorbing Skill, even if it were, it would be absolutely impossible for me to cripple my own martial arts.”

”If you want me to cripple myself, you first have to show your strength and see if you have the qualifications!”

Ning Yuan’s eyes turned cold. ”Today you blocked my enlightenment; this is a blood feud that will not end until one of us is dead. Let’s settle this together.”

Ning Yuan drew his longsword and immediately attacked, his figure flashing within the stone chamber. The space in the stone chamber wasn’t large, but it couldn’t limit Ning Yuan’s speed; instead, it provided him with more convenient opportunities.

It made it easier for him to absorb their internal power.

In Ning Yuan’s eyes, these people had now completely turned into consumables and resources.

”You prevented me from taking a step further, so use your internal power to compensate for my losses!”

Ning Yuan’s eyes were ruthless; he had never been as angry as he was today.

The True Qi of both sides erupted, and the stone pillars in the chamber were shattered.

Chunks of rock cracked and fell, and the entire cave began to shake.

”Not good, this place is going to collapse.”

In the adjacent stone chamber, Long and Mu’s expressions changed drastically, and they immediately rushed out.

Shi Qing and Min Rou were also abandoned by those who had been besieging them. At this time, saving one’s life was clearly the priority, but the two were obviously too late to leave and could only watch helplessly as the rocks fell.

Even the people besieging Ning Yuan began to flee one after another.

But as they were leaving, they joined forces to break the supports of the stone door, causing it to collapse and burying the exit under fallen rocks.

”What are you doing? This way, won’t Yue Buqun be sealed inside? We won’t get anything!”

Someone shouted angrily.

”That Yue Buqun is too terrifying. If we let him escape, I’m afraid none of us will be his match.”

Someone argued.

”Nonsense, can so many of us still not beat him?”

”Moreover, we have Island Masters Long and Mu here, as well as Great Master Miaodi, Daoist Tianxu, and Daoist Yucha. With everyone joining forces, no matter how powerful Yue Buqun is, can he deal with so many experts by himself?”

Someone was shocked and furious.

Now that the stone chamber was destroyed, it meant that only Yue Buqun knew the Tai Xuan Sutra, and they would never be able to practice it again. If Yue Buqun couldn’t get out, the Tai Xuan Sutra would be lost forever.

Wouldn’t they have wasted thirty years on this island for nothing, achieving nothing?

”Stop blaming me! Didn’t you also strike to break the stone pillars just now? Besides, if that Yue Buqun came out, with his strength, even if he couldn’t beat us, if he wanted to escape, could we have stopped him?”

No one present was much weaker than anyone else, so they naturally couldn’t stand such scolding and immediately retorted coldly.

”What should we do now?”

Someone stepped in to mediate.

But seeing the completely collapsed mountain, everyone’s Faces were grim.

”In this situation, even if that Yue Buqun were ten times more powerful, he probably wouldn’t be able to come out.”

Someone said in a muffled voice.

”What on earth happened inside?”

At this time, Long and Mu also arrived, looking disheveled and with grim Faces, and asked directly.

Seeing Long and Mu, everyone present looked embarrassed.

They had plotted for the Tai Xuan Sutra, and now not only was the original version gone, but the only person who had learned it was also buried within the mountain.

This was truly a case of trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice used to lure it.
