949 It is Sword Anyway Part II (2/2)
In the past few years, the cultivation world began to believe in the existence of the Chosen Generation, and several geniuses appeared in the Unknown Places including the Xuankong Temple, Zhishou Abbey, Taoism and the Second Floor: the traveling disciple of Devil's Doctrine Tang, the traveling disciple of Taoism Ye Su, Mr. First and Mr. Second of the Academy, and the traveling disciple of Buddhism Qi Nian.
Liu Bai and the Sage of Calligraphy were born half a generation earlier than the Chosen Generation, and Ye Hongyu, Chen Pipi, Ning Que, Mo Shanshan, Tang Xiaotang and Long Qing were born half a generation later than the Chosen Generation. The Chosen Generation was called so because they were the strongest, most vital and imaginative, and possessed the highest state.
Among the Chosen Generation, Li Manman, the Eldest Brother of Academy was the strongest, and he proved it during the battle against the Tang.
Jun Mo, Ye Su, Tang and Qi Nian followed closely behind Eldest Brother, and nobody could tell which one of the four was stronger. In the Battle of Verdant Canyon, Jun Mo became the strongest among the four since he defeated Ye Su. But soon his arm was cut off by Liu Bai, and the he lost his superiority.
Qi Nian thought he could defeat Jun Mo, but soon he found that it was not the case. In the long and arduous battle of the underground world, Jun Mo became weaker because he had lost too much psyche, but meanwhile he was stronger because his will was strong enough to affect the reality.
Seeing that Jun Mo was able to break the Acalanatha and Buddha's King Kong Devil Conquering Pestle with his sword, Qi Nian knew that his state undoubtedly returned to ninety percent of his prime state and his art of sword was even better!
How did he do it?
Qi Nian was stunned and hesitated for a moment. Unfortunately, he missed his opportunity to attack due to the moment of hesitation. With the crowd gradually dispersing in the distance, Jun Mo held iron sword in his hand and walked back.
The corner of his lip was still full of blood, and his face was still pale, but he had gained back enough Psyche Power during the short time of meditation since he could stand still with the iron sword in his hand. At least he believed he could defeat Qi Nian.
Qi Nian was still wondering. How did he do it?
The enemy's shock and frustration were the source of the companions' confidence. Holding the bamboo spears and bone sticks high, the soldier serfs looked at back of Jun Mo and believed that he was an invincible god.
”Guru is the best!”
”The Living Buddha is invincible!”
Hearing these, Qi Nian remembered that these serfs were shouting that they would protect the Living Buddha previously and suddenly laughed out. He stared at Jun Mo and said ironically, ”You want to destroy Buddha, but you have to urge these stupid serfs in the name of Buddha. Don't you think it is ridiculous?”
Jun Mo held his iron sword up, and the frantic shouts behind him stopped instantly.
He carried the iron sword behind him. Although thousands of serfs were somewhat puzzled, no one hesitated and then they withdrew at the fastest speed, fleeing to the depths of the field with the important impedimenta.
Looking at the serfs who quickly withdrew like the tide of the sea, Qi Nian slightly frowned and somehow puzzled.
Jun Mo asked, ”Why is it ridiculous?”
Qi Nian replied, ”If you are a Living Buddha, does it mean that you have to destroy yourself before you destroy Buddha?”
Jun Mo answered, ”I am a real Buddha. The Buddha you worshiped is a fake.”
Qi Nian shouted, ”How dare you to say this in front of Buddha?!”
Jun Mo unbent the iron sword and said, ”If I am a Living Buddha, Buddha can only be a fake if he were to come to see me.”
Hearing this, an Elder of Commandment Hall was furious. ”Today I must send you to see Buddha!”
Jun Mo ignored him and said to Qi Nian, ”Don't you understand?”
Thinking of a possibility, Qi Nian turned pale slightly and asked, ”What do you really want to do?”
Jun Mo answered, ”The reason I marched seven hundred li with three thousand soldier serfs is to attract you and the monks here.”
Staring at his eyes, Qi Nian asked, ”Why?”
Jun Mo answered, ”There were no strong monks on the peak. I can join forces with my Elder Brother on the cliff yard after I get through you. Then we will kill the chief monk and destroy Buddha's Chessboard.”
Qi Nian turned pale and asked, ”So your aim is the chessboard all along?”
Jun Mo answered, ”Of course. My Youngest Brother is in the chessboard. I must save him.”
Qi Nian went silent for a while and then asked, ”Are you sure you can get through us?”
Jun Mo answered, ”I wasn't sure before, for I didn't know the situation of my recovery. But after breaking the Acalanatha and Buddha's King Kong Devil Conquering Pestle, I am sure that you can't stop me you if you are not among the peaks.”
Qi Nian looked at him and asked, ”Do you know what is in the chessboard?”
Jun Mo responded, ”As I have said, I will call Buddha a fake even he is right in front of me.”
Qi Nian asked, ”You want to see Buddha?”
Jun Mo pointed to the Prajna Peak with his sword and said, ”If the mountain does not come, I will go to the mountain. If Buddha does not come to see me, then I will go see him.”
Qi Nian said, ”Even if you were to see Buddha, what can you do?”
Jun Mo answered, ”I will destroy the hellish Buddha land and the fastest way is to kill Buddha. I have to try.”
