Chapter 407: Chapter 279: Turning Black into White, Terrifying Killing Intent
Looking at Lu Qing pointing his blade at the crowd from Suspended Mountain, he had a calm expression.
This time, no one dared to underestimate his words.
There was no helping it. Anyone who could severely injure a disciple from the Four Great Secret Places who had attained Great Success in the Innate Realm with a single strike, no one dared to look down upon him again.
“Arrogant!”
On the other side, Xuan Nu had started to heal his injuries while sitting cross-legged, protected by other monks.
But being pointed at so arrogantly by a young man, how could the always high and mighty monks of Suspended Mountain endure it?
Immediately, someone wanted to step forward to show Lu Qing the consequences of his arrogance.
“Xuanxin, stop.”
However, at this moment, the leading monk called out lightly, stopping the monk named Xuanming from moving forward.
He then took a step forward, brought his hands together in prayer, and addressed Lu Qing, “This benefactor misunderstands us. We, along with your master, were merely exchanging insights and not harboring any ill intentions.
But you, benefactor, as soon as you arrived, not only interrupted the contest but also attacked, harming the life of a Suspended Mountain disciple.
I believe you owe us an explanation from Suspended Mountain.”
Upon hearing these words, not only did the elder doctor show anger on his face, but even the many watching Martial Arts Experts were also taken aback.
It seemed everyone was stunned by the words of the Suspended Mountain monk.
Only those familiar with the consistent nature of Suspended Mountain from the other Three Great Secret Places showed an unsurprised expression.
Some even whispered disdainfully, “This Xuanming Old Monk is still as shamelessly brazen as ever.”
“Misunderstanding?” Lu Qing, however, did not seem surprised by the words that Xuanming had spoken, and he coldly said, “The Vajra Subdues Demon Formation, a secret formation of Suspended Mountain.
Capable of using Buddhist chants to forcefully change one’s mind and turn them into puppets.
You tried to use such an evil formation to turn my master into a puppet of Suspended Mountain.
And now you tell me it’s a misunderstanding?
Is Suspended Mountain really such a den of shameless Evil Demons among the so-called Four Great Secret Places?”
Lu Qing knew his master was not articulate, so he directly pointed out the malicious nature of the formation previously used by Suspended Mountain.
Indeed, as soon as these words were spoken, apart from the people from the Three Great Secret Places.
The other Martial Arts Experts were greatly shocked.
Although they had been spectating just for fun, they were not aware that the formation deployed by Suspended Mountain possessed such terrifying power.
Forcibly changing people’s minds, losing their selves, becoming puppets.
The gathered experts only needed to imagine that scene to feel chills.
All the experts present had reached their current realms by fighting and tempering themselves along the way.
It can be said that each of them had a strong, independent character, and a strong mind.
Even death wouldn’t overly frighten them.
But losing their selves and becoming puppets controlled by others, for them, that was truly worse than death.
Suddenly, everyone’s gaze towards the people of Suspended Mountain became filled with immense wariness.
The monks of Suspended Mountain did not expect that Lu Qing would have such a deep understanding of their secret Vajra Subdues Demon Formation.
At first startled, they soon reacted.
“Amitabha.” The Xuanming Monk chanted the Buddhist mantra again, “The benefactor really misunderstands.
Indeed, what we deployed was the Vajra Subdues Demon Formation.
But this formation is not as the benefactor describes, transforming people into puppets with an evil formation.
Rather, the Vajra Subdues Demon Formation is our Suspended Mountain’s formation for subduing demons and controlling inner demons.
We saw this elderly gentleman just come out from the Holy Pool with some insights and still carrying the Merit Light that only our Buddhist cultivation can achieve, so we wished to discuss doctrines with him.
However, during the discussion, we discovered that this elderly gentleman seemed to have spawned a Heart Demon after his insights from the Holy Pool.
Thus, we decided to employ the Vajra Subdues Demon Formation to help this elderly gentleman subdue his Heart Demon.
We truly did not expect to be misunderstood by you, benefactor, it is indeed our fault.”
Xuanming Monk’s words were earnest and seemed sincere.
This caused the surrounding Martial Arts Experts to be once again stunned and hesitated, unable to judge who between him and Lu Qing was telling the truth.
Seeing Xuanming handle things so seamlessly even at this point, Lu Qing also somewhat admired him.
When it comes to shamelessness, these monks of Suspended Mountain truly ranked first under heaven.
If it weren’t for his superpower, he would have clearly seen the intentions of these monks at the very first moment.
He might even have been moved by their words, questioning whether he had really misunderstood.
“Old Monk, true to your Buddhist cultivation, this skill of reversing black and white shamelessly is unparalleled. Perhaps even the other three Great Secret Places combined are no match for you one-tenth.
However, even if you can speak eloquently, turning black to white, and death to life, what of it?
The young monk has already been slain by me, what can you do to me?”
“Mercy be upon us, this should merely be a misunderstanding, but as soon as you arrived, you indiscriminately killed, harming the life of a Suspended Mountain disciple.
It seems you and this elder are alike, harboring evil Qi and unknowingly cultivating a heart demon.
The old monk has a proposition, if the two benefactors don’t mind, why not follow us back to Suspended Mountain?
With the abilities of Suspended Mountain, we can surely exorcise your heart demons and restore your sanity.”
Facing Lu Qing’s provocation, Xuanming showed no hint of anger on his face; instead, he was utterly sincere.
His demeanor really seemed as if he was considering the best for Lu Qing and the elder doctor.
Lu Qing finally understood; these Suspended Mountain monks truly aimed to beautify their words in any scenario, never willing to suffer any logical defeat.
He shook his head, no longer wanting to waste words with these people.
He turned to look at the elder doctor who had been recuperating: “Master, how do you feel now?”
“I am unharmed now,” the elder doctor said.
He had been resisting the psychic attacks of the Vajra Subduing Demon Formation, causing enormous drain on his Divine Soul Power.
Having escaped the entrapment, he secretly consumed two drops of Earth Vein Spiritual Liquid and after such a long rest, had finally recovered substantially.
Lu Qing nodded, “In that case, let’s go.”
The elder doctor did not hesitate, stood up, and walked beside Lu Qing.
Seeing this, everyone finally realized that Lu Qing’s actions, whether it was the snapping of Hui Xin, provoking Xuan Nu to act, or debating with the people from Suspended Mountain,
all of it was just to buy time for his master to recuperate.
“This young man, what a deep schemer!”
Other experts from the Three Great Secret Places were instantly astonished.
They had thought that Lu Qing debating with the monks of Suspended Mountain was a self-inflicted hardship.
These monks were famously eloquent; they could argue black as white and the unreasonable as reasonable.
Almost no one could gain verbal advantage over them.
Unexpectedly, while Lu Qing appeared to be vehemently denouncing the actions of Suspended Mountain, he was actually buying time for his master.
“Not good!”
The monks from Suspended Mountain finally realized, they had been played by Lu Qing.
The elder doctor had been suppressed by their formations for a long time and had exhausted his strength with a powerful display of Sword Energy Domain.
But they, disrupted by Lu Qing, had failed to notice this, allowing the elder doctor to regain much of his strength.
“Master, let’s go.”
While Lu Qing truly wished to slaughter all the opposing monks,
it was clearly not possible at the moment.
Not to mention that the abilities of those several senior monks were not weak, each possessing the strength of Great Success in the Innate Realm.
Moreover, since they were from one of the Four Great Secret Places, Suspended Mountain, they surely had their own reliance.
Unless he truly disregarded all consequences and went all out,
it was still dubious whether they could win or not.
Besides, with so many experts around, once a fight broke out, who knew if someone would want to reap the benefits of the fishermen?
“Hold on!”
Seeing that Lu Qing and the elder were really about to leave, Xuanming couldn’t maintain his chanting anymore and urgently shouted out.
“What now, Old Monk, you want to stop us?”
Lu Qing, seeing this, his gaze sharpened, his hand on his waist.
An inexplicable aura began to rise from his form.
At the same time, a sudden tremor shook the spirits of all the experts present.
Suddenly, they felt an extremely terrifying crisis looming, causing a tingling numbness on their scalps in an instant.
The monks from Suspended Mountain, led by Xuanming, changed their expression dramatically and hesitated in their steps.
