My Disciples Are All Villains - Chapter 283

A Golden Body was another form of manifestation of an avatar. In essence, there was not much of a difference between them.

“A Buddha’s Golden Body!”

“A Buddhist elite!”

“It’s a Buddhist grandmaster!”

This Golden Body was clearly larger than an Arhat Golden Body.

An Arhat Golden Body was equivalent to a Five-leaf cultivation base, a Bodhisattva Golden Body was equivalent to a Six-leaf cultivation base, and a Buddha Golden Body was equivalent to a Seven- or Eight-leaf cultivation base.

This Golden Body before them was a Buddha Golden Body. They did not expect there to be a Buddhist grandmaster here.

Jiang Aijian had once witnessed Lu Zhou unleashing a Buddha Golden Body at Runan’s holy altar. Now that another one had manifested before his eyes, he immediately recognized it. He looked at Lu Zhou and said, “Compared to your Buddha Golden Body, old senior, this is nothing. It’s like comparing a grandson to the grandfather…”

Qin Jun sounded puzzled when he asked, “Old Mister, you know the cultivation methods of the Buddhist and zen sects as well?”

“Not only does he know about them, but if he claims he’s second, no one would dare to claim the first place…” Jiang Aijian did not hold back when complimenting Lu Zhou. Ever since he witnessed the Buddha Golden Body, he felt that the other Buddhist cultivators he met after the incident were too weak and too insignificant to mention.

However, to the others, they were clearly impressed by this grandmaster!

Thunk! Thunk! Thunk!

The flying swords collided with the Golden Body. They flew back and returned.

The grandmaster exclaimed in a deep voice, “A bunch of trash.”

‘Hm?’ The others were stunned. Why did this grandmaster utter such vulgar words?

“Abandon the flying swords!” the grandmaster barked.

“Un-understood…” With such an elite here, the others did not dare to hold onto the swords. They tossed the flying swords away.

When the swords fell into the Formation, they were carried up by Primal Qi and returned to the Seven Terminal Formation. The Sword Formation slowly stopped its attacks and resumed its original form. The swords were now orbiting the huge tombstone again. If it were not for the seven faint radiant circles on the ground, they would have thought that someone else was controlling these swords.

When the Seven Terminal Formation was restored, the Buddha Golden Body disappeared.

The effort the cultivators had exerted before this was all in vain. They had to give the swords they had gone to much trouble to obtain. Their attention was all focused on the grandmaster. At this moment, they finally had a clear look at his appearance. The grandmaster looked emaciated and was dressed in a gray monk robe and a monk cap. He was not young. In fact, he looked like he was in his 60s even though he looked energetic.

“It’s a Buddhist grandmaster! Where are our manners?”

The others bowed at the grandmaster.

At this moment, Jiang Aijian suddenly smiled and said, “Kong Yuan… What happened to you?”

The monk frowned. With a gaze as sharp as a blade, he looked at Jiang Aijian…

The others exclaimed in surprise.

“Grandmaster Kong Yuan?”

“Grandmaster Kong Yuan of the Temple of Great Emptiness?”

The Temple of Great Emptiness, the first among the four major Buddhist sects, had always commanded respect. However, ever since the incident at Runan’s holy altar, its reputation had been tarnished. However, since Kong Yuan was still an elite, they were, naturally, fearful of saying anything.

“You know me?” Kong Yuan asked. “Grandmaster Kong Yuan… I can understand why you dressed up as a minor monk, but please hide your Buddhist prayer beads. They stand out too much,” Jiang Aijian said flippantly.

Kong Yuan looked at his prayer beads. He must have exposed himself when he unleashed his Golden Body and his Primal Qi activated the prayer beads.

In the four major Buddhist Sects, Kong Yuan was the only one who wore prayer beads.

However, this was not important. Kong Yuan said in a deep voice, “In that case, there’s no reason for me to hide. I’m determined to get the Demon Sword in the Seven Terminal Formation. I have no need for the others, and you can have all of them… How does that sound?”

The other cultivators dared not bargain with him.

At the end of the day, strength spoke the loudest here. In any case, after assessing themselves honestly, they did not think they were worthy of wielding the Demon Sword anyway. If someone could lead them to take down the Sword Formation, and they could gain the other flying swords, it was not a bad choice at all.

“In that case, kindly provide us with a plan, grandmaster.”

“Grandmaster… I have no qualms with you taking the Demon Sword. However, this Sword Formation is extremely peculiar. How are you going to break it?”

The other cultivators who did not speak silently agreed to this. Jiang Aijian could not help but shake his head. The so-called members of the Noble Path were a bunch of cowards in the face of this bald donkey. They had no morality or backbones at all.

Kong Yuan looked at the Sword Formation and said, “I’ve made many preparations for this sword. Those who have no business here or those who don’t agree with me taking the Demon Sword can get lost now.” The way he had asked them to get lost was extremely unbecoming of his status.

As soon as he finished speaking, two individuals broke away from the group and walked toward the exit.

Jiang Aijian whispered, “Oh, my. There are some with a backbone as well….”

Kong Yuan did not stop them. His eyes were on Lu Zhou’s group as he asked, “Do you have anything to say, benefactors?”.

Jiang Aijian said, “I do.” “Let us hear it, benefactor,” Kong Yuan replied.

Kong Yuan had never met Lu Zhou before. On top of that, it was dim in the mausoleum. He did not even notice Lu Zhou standing there initially.

Jiang Aijian said, “What happens if you can’t break this Sword Formation?”

Kong Yuan replied smugly, “Since I’m here, it’s only natural that I’m confident I’ll be able to break it.”

“I don’t think you can break the Formation… If you can’t break this Formation, why are you bragging about obtaining the Devil Sword! What a shameless character,” said Jiang Aijian.

Lu Zhou, Little Yuan’er, and Qin Jun looked at Jiang Aijian. They were impressed by his eloquence.

Kong Yuan was of a high status. He was also the abbot of the Temple of Great Emptiness. He would never allow anyone to question him. He immediately said, “If I can’t break this Formation, then, I’ll just disregard the Demon Sword. However, if I can’t break the Formation, who can?”

Jiang Aijian said, “I don’t know if anyone else can break this Formation or not, but I know you can’t.

Kong Yuan looked at Jiang Aijian again. When their eyes met, Jiang Aijian felt a hint of killing intent directed at himself. Jiang Aijian’s heart skipped a beat. ‘Is this what a Buddhist grandmaster is like?’ He retreated and deliberately moved closer to Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou said curtly, “Scram.”

“Scramming now…” Jiang Aijian went to the

side.

‘Is he trying to use his connections to intimidate others? How dare he use me.’

Kong Yuan ignored Jiang Aijian. He addressed the other cultivators and said, “The disciples of the Core Heart Sect, Seven Stars Villa, Celestial Masters Sect, and Hengqu branch will take up the vanguard.” He called out the disciples of the ten great sects directly.

About 20 disciples stepped forward. “Kindly give us your orders, grandmaster.”

“I’d like to see your true abilities… Don’t embarrass your respective masters,” Kong Yuan said.

The 20 disciples exchanged glances. They shook their heads and sighed. Among themselves, the ones with the most profound cultivation base had just recently entered the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm. The rest of them were mostly in the Brahman Sea realm with a handful in the Divine Court realm. How were they supposed to fight against Kong Yuan?

“Let’s start then,” someone said.

The cultivators returned to their original positions and manifested their avatars.

Jiang Aijian could not bear to see those puny avatars. He looked at them sympathetically before saying, “Old senior… Shall we?”

“There’s no hurry,” Lu Zhou said apathetically. If someone wanted to be cannon fodder, he was more than happy to sit back and reap the benefits. Moreover, he was not in his peak condition now and wanted to save as many item cards as possible.

Kong Yuan glanced at Jiang Aijian, a flash of killing intent could be seen in the depths of his eyes. A soft grunt rang in the air before his monk robes fluttered and a golden light appeared

“Bright Mirror.”
