730 One Step, One Kill (2/2)
In his opinion, all men were equal. So why bother making a selection before death?
But obviously, not everyone agreed with him.
Qi Mei was still moving forward.
At this time, he was only nine steps away from Tang's camp.
It also meant that the Yuelun Kingdom would have to sacrifice nine more lives.
Eldest Brother looked gradually serious.
At the eighth step from the end.
The commander in chief of the Yuelun Kingdom died.
The seventh step from the end.
The incoming chief monk of the Commandment Yard at the Xuankong Temple died.
Master Qi Mei's footstep grew heavier and heavier.
Every step took more and more time.
Before he took the sixth step from the end, Eldest Brother suddenly said something.
”The Emperor of Yuelun Kingdom died.”
This was the first time since the fight started for Eldest Brother to kill someone by the use of Limitless State before Qi Mei had the chance to take a step. What did that mean? It meant that more than six people would die though there were only six steps left.
It could be sixty.
Six hundred.
Six thousand.
Or even more.
No matter how benevolent a person was, he wouldn't care to kill more once things had started.
Master Qi Mei's foot could no longer fall onto the ground.
It was at this time that a pair of shoes fell on the ground.
It was a pair of common indigo cloth shoes.
When the shoes appeared, they killed the ant who had been struggling for a long time in the thick blood.
The person who wore the shoes was a Taoist in an indigo Taoist robe.
Silence reigned.
Eldest Brother gave a salute and said, ”You are late, Abbey Dean.”
The Taoist in indigo was Chen Mou, Abbey Dean of the Zhishou Abbey. After the Headmaster left the world, the Chief Preaching Monk of Xuankong Temple and he became the supreme in the world.
If he had appeared earlier, Eldest Brother wouldn't have killed so many people.
Eldest Brother did not mean to kill, so he said he was late.
The Taoist looked at him and said indifferently, ”I wanted to see how many people the Headmaster's student, taught by way of compassion and benevolence, could kill. So I'm late.”
Eldest Brother understood what he meant.
Haotian Taoism did not care whether the Emperor of the Yuelun Kingdom was alive or dead, or how many people from the Buddhism Sect would die today. The Taoist in indigo wouldn't care at all even if the Buddhism Sect was destroyed together with Yuelun Kingdom.
Eldest Brother sighed. ”You all want me to kill.”
Then he looked at Master Qi Mei and said with a touch of sympathy, ”Do you still think that God's will cannot be violated?”
Master Qi Mei fell into silence.
Eldest Brother looked at the wooden dipper at his waist, staring at the cracks on it.
”Jun Mo was right. Fighting is to use something strong to attack the weak point of the enemy, with full effort and determination. And you did just that, Abbey Dean.”
He looked up at the Taoist in indigo and said smilingly, ”Then I finally learned how to fight.”
The Taoist in indigo slightly raised his eyebrows, his clothes floating in the wind.
A thunderous roar sounded at the field.
The wooden dipper at the Eldest Brother's waist seemed to have gone who knows where.
Countless pieces of wood scattered behind Master Qi Mei.
The wooden dipper was broken, and Master Qi Mei's head was severely deformed as if having been crused over by a mountain. Even though his body had nearly become Buddha's, he was now nothing but a crumbling clay statue.
Master Qi Mei fell to the ground, being too badly injured to stand on his feet.
Blood slowly seeped out of Eldest Brother's cotton jacket, reddening his shoulder.
On the previous instant, he applied his first attack to Master Qi Mei after learning how to fight. At the same time, he was almost seriously injured by the Taoist in indigo.
The Taoist in indigo looked at him quietly and said, ”Your state is lower than mine. How can you walk even more steadily than me on the Limitless State path?”
Eldest Brother said, ”You've been walking too fast over the years. Surely that makes you unsteady.”
The Taoist in indigo suddenly asked, ”It is said that you went into the Seethrough at dawn and ended being to the Knowing Destiny State at dusk. When did you surpass the Five States?”
Eldest Brother replied, ”That time I spent a relatively longer time. Three days.”
The Taoist in indigo fell into a long silence. He put his hands clasped behind his back and shook his head with a smile.
His smile was natural and unrestrained.
Although his hands were put behind his back, he had the whole world before him.
Eldest Brother did not speak and left.
The Taoist in indigo also left.
The first fight at the Limitless State in the mortal world had just begun.
