Chapter 52: Chapter 52: Burying Everything
Translator: 549690339
Unstoppable, completely unstoppable.
None could stand in his way.
Master Pudu was killed in an instant, and the monks of Dalin Temple went berserk, launching wave after wave of fearless attacks.
Clang…
Jiang Ming’s long sword burst forth, executing Ten Thousand Swords Return to One, annihilating countless enemies.
Blood flowed like rivers, dyeing the mountain peaks red.
Flee, flee, flee…
Some monks, terrified by the slaughter, repented and fled down the mountain; others who had been invited to watch, or who wanted to pick off the leftovers, turned and ran as well.
The figure before them was not a human but a killing god, a demon, a fierce ghost, beyond the resistance of any mortal force.
“Flee?”
Jiang Ming leaped into the air, his sword’s radiance reaching a hundred meters away.
With one swing of his long sword, sword qi shot out up to 500 meters, making escape impossible.
Whoever tried to flee would be the first to die.
Front Mountain, Back Mountain, Jiang Ming made several killing rounds.
Bodies littered the mountains, and blood flowed like waterfalls.
At the end, he stood on the highest peak, gazing at the many martial artists who had come to watch the fight; they shuddered as his eyes swept over them. Some even collapsed to the ground.
“From now on, those who want to confront me should first consider whether they can bear the price of my retaliation!” Jiang Ming’s voice boomed like a giant bell, echoing throughout the mountains.
The slaughter today was also in preparation for the third year.
By then, those who were rejected by the will of Heaven and Earth would be influenced by an invisible will and might try to besiege him.
No, they definitely would.
By that time, he would face an even more terrifying situation.
But after today’s massacre, those who wanted to make a move would hesitate.
“Everyone!” Jiang Ming sheathed his sword and bowed to the crowd in the distance, “Among you, there must be quite a few disciples of the righteous sects. Today, many of the Demon Sect’s grandmasters and experts have been killed by me. Two months ago, the sect leader of the Demon Sect, Yang Kaitai, was also killed by me. That is to say, the Demon Sect is now at its weakest point, and you can all go and make a name for yourselves.”
“The Demon Sect has been resisting the righteous path with its power alone, so they must be hiding countless treasures, countless wealth, various cultivation techniques, divine weapons, and miraculous medicines.”
“This is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. If you miss it, you’ll miss the chance to become a powerful martial artist!”
“Seize the opportunity, exterminate the Demon Sect, become famous throughout the world, be remembered for a thousand years, and enhance your strength!”
Having said this, Jiang Ming headed towards the scripture repository of Dalin Temple.
This was also one of his targets.
The battle ended with more than 80% of the people at Dalin Temple dead or injured. The remaining disciples were either below the Innate Realm, fled down the mountain, or escaped into the depths of the mountains. Some ordinary disciples, such as those skilled in fire, stayed behind.
The news spread far and wide, shaking the world.
Most people thought Jiang Ming would fall at Dalin Temple, but they had no idea such a situation would unfold.
Three great grandmasters perished, and over thirty grandmaster martial artists were killed, along with many other fallen powerful fighters.
This battle was even more fierce than when Elder Zhang took on the Demon Sect years ago.
Dalin Temple was ruined.
Imperial Capital.
The Crown Prince was dignified and awe-inspiring without showing anger. He held a teacup and listened to the messages coming back: “He actually slaughtered Dalin Temple. How can there be such a powerful person in the world? All in all, seven Great Grandmasters have died at his hands, right?” “Seven Great Grandmasters!” The Crown Prince’s scalp tingled.
“Your Highness, he said he would come to the Imperial City!” An elder bowed and said.
“Come to the Imperial City?” The Crown Prince laughed, “1 hope he comes. No matter how strong he is, he is just one person. Can he really resist a large army? If one thousand is not enough, then three thousand; if three thousand is not enough, then thirty thousand; if thirty thousand is not enough, then three hundred thousand.”
“Your Highness, what if he really comes to the Imperial City?” The elder pondered, “I’m afraid it would be troublesome if he comes in secret. Even if he comes openly, we must be on guard. After all, he is too strong, beyond common sense. Your Highness, he hasn’t come down from the mountain yet, but the City Defense Army has already assembled there, and the Black Flag Army led by General Chang has also arrived. Shall we deploy them? It would be best if we can encircle and kill him. If not, consider it a test for targeted slaughtering next time.”
“Kill!”
“Yes, Your Highness. What about the Emperor’s side, and…”
“No problem!” The Crown Prince stood up, his eyes sharp, “I’ve been waiting for too long, and now the time is barely ripe…”
He didn’t continue speaking.
Zhen Wu Sect.
“Dalin Temple has been slaughtered!” Elder Zhang stood at the edge of the cliff, looking at the rolling clouds and frowning deeply, “His killing intent is too strong. If seeking revenge, there is no need for slaughter. But…around twenty years old and already at the peak of martial arts, what kind of origin does he have?”
“Alas, I don’t know whether this is a blessing or a curse?”
Elder Zhang sighed.
“Master, he should be resentful of evil and takes vengeance for even the smallest grievance. He cannot bear a slight insult; that’s why he takes extreme revenge. After all, he has been targeted several times, and any other person would have already died.” A middle-aged man beside him said, “Didn’t the youngest junior brother say he is a good person? The first time they met, he exchanged his martial arts skills, and the second time they met, he even opened his collection of various secret techniques, even including the publicly deduced Nine Yin and Nine Yang. Such martial artists with magnanimous hearts and heroic characters should be considered a good thing for the world of martial arts. After all, there will be peace in the martial world for a long time, a very long time after this incident.”
“But 1 have a bad feeling!” Elder Zhang’s voice was ethereal.
Inside a meditation hall in Dalin Temple.
In front of Jiang Ming were many martial arts scriptures, as well as various precious spiritual elixirs and tonics hidden in Dalin Temple.
“Yi Jing Sutra, Marrow Cleansing Scripture, Shenzu Scripture, Flower Picking Finger, amazing. These are all top-notch martial arts.” Lu Yuan’s eyes shone, “Elixir of Great Returning, Small Returning Pill, eighteen whole pieces of thousand-year ginseng, oh my God…”
“You can watch the martial arts as you please, but the tonics are mine!” Jiang Ming laughed.
“As the saying goes, sharing when we meet, Brother Jiang. We don’t need half of them. One-tenth or one-twentieth would be enough, right?” Lu Yuan stared at the Elixir of Great Returning with saliva flowing.
“Brother Jiang, what about a sister here?” Constable Jin directly hugged his arm.
Jiang Ming’s mouth twitched, “Alright, everyone can have some, is that okay?”
“Speaking of, if 1 were to oppose the whole world and the heaven and earth, what would you choose?” He asked a strange question.
“Oppose heaven and earth? Isn’t that nonsense? Are you trying to blow up the whole world?” Lu Yuan laughed, “Of course, if we must oppose, then we will oppose. After all, without you, 1 would have already died in Black Wind Village!” “Brother Jiang, I have already massaged your back and shoulders, served you tea, and poured water for you. How about I warm your bed tonight?” Constable Jin joked.
But her face turned red.
“Brother Jiang, count me in!” The Ninth Princess walked in from outside. Her eyes swept around, and Constable Jin quickly let go of Jiang Ming’s arm.
“Alright!” Jiang Ming showed a trace of strangeness, “How did you come here?”
“I’m worried. I’ve already arranged for the Tianwu Manor, so 1 came to see what’s going on!” The Ninth Princess still had the shocking look in her eyes.
How magnificent the Dalin Temple was, and yet it was leveled.
It was all due to the effort of a single person.
Looking at the young man in front of her, her eyes were filled with astonishment. She stepped forward and lowered her voice, “Brother Jiang, where are you going next?”
“The Demon Sect should be finished. We can only go to the Imperial Capital!”
“The Imperial Capital has a stationed army of two hundred thousand troops and countless strong people. It is not comparable to Dalin Temple. Brother Jiang, are you really going?”
“Two hundred thousand? Let’s give it a try and see if we can break through!”
“Fine, 1 will collect your corpse when the time comes, so that you don’t expose it in the wild!” The Ninth Princess said solemnly, “Approximately when?”
