Hearing Monk Lidi’s roar, the corners of many people’s lips twitched . They all looked towards the source of the voice .

“Such a confident tone . Where’s this monk from?”

“Jialuo Gu is wearing the Thousand Cassock Robe . His combat ability is comparable to a Half-Saint . Who dares to say he’s going to bleed?”

“Judging from his looks, he’s not some good guy either . Have you ever seen a monk with a broadsword?”

The young Monks in the Talent and Conquer Seats all discussed Monk Lidi . They thought he looked too menacing to be a good guy .

He looked more like an evil monk from the Death Zen Sect . On the other hand, Jialuo Gu looked kind and gentle . He radiated with Buddha light . This was what a monk should look like .

If Jialuo Gu’s methods from before hadn’t been so cruel and hateful, the people would probably have an even worse impression of Monk Lidi .

Monk Lidi rolled up his pant legs, revealing calves covered in black hair . His shirt was open wide, revealing his chest and stomach as he walked to the peak of Scroll Mountain .

Monk Lidi’s voice was loud and he looked powerful, but he walked really slowly . After 15 minutes had passed, he still hadn’t reached the middle of the mountain .

Even a beginner who’d just started cultivating martial arts could reach the top in that time .

Chen Tianpeng, one of the three heirs of the Eastern Region Saint Mansion, was sitting in a Conquer Seat . He said telepathically to Chen Laner, “Is this monk scared? How come he’s taking so long?”

Monk Lidi’s two large ears twitched as if he’d heard something . Stopping, his bell-sized eyes glared at Chen Tianpeng . “Scared?” he boomed like thunder . “I am dedicated to the Buddha . I have no fear, no terror, and no obsessions . How will I fear a traitor of the Buddha Way?”

Chen Tianpeng was shocked . He didn’t think that Monk Lidi’s hearing would be sensitive enough to hear his telepathic message . Then Monk Lidi rolled up his sleeves and stalked over to him menacingly .

Chen Tianpeng thought that Monk Lidi was furious and that he wanted to beat him up . He stood up in panic and put his hands together to apologize . “I’m sorry, I spoke incorrectly . Please forgive me . ”

Actually, Monk Lidi only wanted to go debate with Chen Tianpeng . He wasn’t angry at all . It was just that he looked too scary and his voice was too rough . This made Chen Tianpeng think that he was angry already .

Seeing that Chen Tianpeng’s apology seemed genuine, Monk Lidi nodded . He huffed and turned to leave . He continued climbing up at a snail’s pace .

Chen Tianpeng returned to his seat . Staring at Monk Lidi’s backside, he let out a long sigh .

Behind him, Chen Laner didn’t understand . “This monk looks scary, but you don’t have to apologize voluntarily . ”

But Chen Tianpeng was still feeling afraid . He wiped away his sweat, saying, “Didn’t you see that sinister expression? If I didn’t apologize immediately, I probably would have gotten killed with one punch . This monk can’t be anyone good . ”

Actually, Chen Tianpeng didn’t know how to explain what he’d felt . It was just that, when Monk Lidi’s eyes stared at him, it felt like there was a god standing before him . He felt reverent and had to submit to him .

After that small interruption, no one dared to look down on Monk Lidi .

Even Lin Yue had said he could fight against Jialuo Gu . How could he be an average man?

Monk Lidi could hear the telepathic messages of a Monk in the Ninth Change of the Fish-Dragon Realm . This meant that his cultivation was definitely powerful . Thus, everyone started waiting patiently . They wanted to see if this monk really could defeat Jialuo Gu .

Huang Yanchen walked to Zhang Ruochen’s side and reached out a slender hand to hold his arm . “The traitor of the Buddha Way should be taken care of by a Buddhist monk . Shall we go back first?”

Zhang Ruochen glanced over . Staring into her blue eyes, he caught a clear fragrant scent . His face didn’t betray any emotions, but he sighed softly inward .

Huang Yanchen was like an ice mountain, rejecting any man before they even got close . But now, she’d come to hold onto him voluntarily . His identity must have been exposed .

How had Huang Yanchen figured it out? Zhang Ruochen had been very careful . He couldn’t think of any mistake he’d made .

“Yes . ” Zhang Ruochen nodded and returned to the first King Seat with Huang Yanchen .

After one hour, Monk Lidi finally approached the mountaintop . He stopped and exhaled loudly . He looked up, meeting Jialuo Gu’s eyes .

Jialuo Gu stood at the top of Scroll Mountain . He put his hands together in prayer and every inch of his skin glowed with golden Buddha light . His voice was graceful as he said, “Are you a monk of the Ten Thousand Buddha Way?”

“I cultivate the Nirvana Way . My clerical name is Lidi,” Monk Lidi said .

The Nirvana Way was a branch of the Ten Thousand Buddha Way . “Lidi” meant to “stand firmly on the ground . ”

Eight hundred years ago, when the Buddha had appeared out of nowhere, he became the leader of the Buddha Way . The Nirvana Way developed quickly and became the strongest branch of the Ten Thousand Buddha Way in the end .

Jialuo Gu nodded . “Since you’re not from the Ten Thousand Buddha Way, why don’t you mind your own business?”

“The Death Zen Sect completely betrays the Buddha Way . It is a cult . Any disciple of the Buddha Way will try to destroy it . ” Monk Lidi’s voice was strong and powerful . Each word seemed to shake one’s eardrums .

Jialuo Gu smiled thinly . “Aren’t you betraying the Buddha Way’s beliefs by saying the word ‘destroy’?”

“I do not like to kill,” Monk Lidi said evenly . “However, I can still have periods where I kill, or even kill many . ”

Jialuo Gu had wanted to use his words to destroy Monk Lidi’s internal composure . He didn’t think that this monk was completely different from the Buddhist Sect’s monks . He kept saying the word “kill,” clearly not caring about the rules .

Continuing to fight verbally would be useless .

In that case, they would have to fight physically . Jialuo Gu refused to believe that he would lose with his cultivation and the Thousand Treasure Cassock .

“I’d like to see what kind of people the Nirvana Way has produced this generation . ”

Jialuo Gu’s eyes darkened . He put his hands together before his chest . His Buddha Light flared ten times brighter, becoming extremely dazzling .

“Mainstay Buddhist Mark . ”

Jialuo Gu’s feet left the ground automatically and he shot into the air . Spreading his hands apart, he created two Buddhist Marks .

Golden Sanskrit words flew out of his palms, gathering in the center . They formed a huge golden hand that pressed down at Monk Lidi .

Jialuo Gu didn’t underestimate Monk Lidi at all . When he attacked using the Mainstay Buddhist Mark, he also activated the Thousand Treasure Cassock . It would be best if he could use this one strike to defeat the other .

“Thousand Dragons and Elephants . ”

Monk Lidi wasn’t intimidated . Powerful Yang Qi rushed out of him, transforming into flames that gathered into a golden cloud of fire .

Handprints formed in the fire cloud and lined up behind Monk Lidi . There were actually 1,000 handprints . Each one had the mark of a dragon and elephant in the palm . All lined up, it was as if there were 1,000 dragons and 1,000 elephants .

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes lit up . “The eighth movement of the Dragon and Elephant Palm,” he said .

The eighth movement of the Dragon and Elephant Palm was a set of palm martial arts techniques . Once one cultivated it, one would reach the middle class of the Ghost Level . The power released could compare with the martial arts techniques of the Ghost Level Superior class, too .

It was called the Thousand-Hand Dragons and Elephants because once one cultivated it fully, a single palm could unleash the power of 1,000 aggressive elephants .

One palm could wipe out an entire army .

Even if the Monk stood miles away, he could still collapse a city’s walls with one strike . It would be as if 1000 angry elephants crashed against the walls .

Once a Monk could successfully cultivate the eighth movement, the Yang Qi within him would be 100 times more than the average man . He could easily lose control and light himself on fire .

Even Zhang Ruochen was only on the seventh movement of the Dragon and Elephant Palm . Of course, that was because Zhang Ruochen was preparing for the Sword Technique Conference and was putting all his efforts into cultivating his Tao of Sword . He had no time to practice his palm .

Kaboom!

Two palms filled with Yang Qi clashed against each other . It sounded as if two steel mountains had collided . Beams of Buddhist light shot out in all directions .

The next moment, Jialuo Gu flew backwards . When he landed at the peak of Scroll Mountain, he stumbled backwards further . He couldn’t digest the power and steady himself until dozens of steps later .

On the other hand, Monk Lidi was like a boulder . He stood firmly on the ground without moving the slightest bit .

Jialuo Gu’s eyes almost fell out of their sockets . He couldn’t accept this reality . “How can it be possible? I have the Thousand Treasure Cassock’s help . Even a second level Half-Saint would be affected by my Mainstay Buddha Mark . ”

The Half-Saint Realm was divided into nine levels . Each level was far apart from the others . It was practically impossible to challenge someone of a higher level .

Only someone with a Saint Body could surpass one level in the Half-Saint Realm and fight . This meant that even a Saint Body in the first level could only fight against a second level Half-Saint . He would still be defeated by a third level Half-Saint without any question .

Jialuo Gu was very clear about his own abilities . With the Thousand Treasure Cassock, even if he couldn’t defeat a second level Half-Saint with the Mainstay Buddha Mark, he could still force the other back a few steps .

However, Monk Lidi’s feet seemed rooted in the ground . He hadn’t even budged . Thinking of this, huge beads of sweat appeared on Jialuo Gu’s forehead . He felt great pressure .
