Incredible Insight: Cultivating Immortality at Eight, Astonishing Zhang Sanfeng

Chapter 47:Refining with True Fire

The crowd had been engrossed in the skirmishes,with most combatants being of the Grandmaster level at most.But now,with the sudden appearance of three Heaven-Man level masters from Shaolin,everyone was stunned.

Each person silently marveled at Shaolin’s deep foundation.

Abbot Kongwen finally breathed a sigh of relief.He had refrained from stopping Song Yuanqiao and the others,secretly sending for reinforcements instead.Upon seeing the three elder monks,he respectfully greeted them,”Greetings,Masters Unbearable,Calamity,and Difficulty!”

These old monks,who appeared suddenly,had deeply sunken cheeks and were extremely gaunt.One had a yellowish complexion,another was darker,and the third was pale.

Blocked by the monks,the Wudang contingent tensed up.Heaven-Man level masters rarely intervened,typically leaving Grandmasters to display their prowess in the martial world.However,today had been a disastrous day for Shaolin.Their plan to elevate their prestige had backfired with the scandal involving Yuan Zhen.If they allowed Song Yuanqiao and the others to leave with the Dragon-Slaying Saber,Shaolin’s reputation would be tarnished,while Wudang’s would soar at Shaolin’s expense.

Such an outcome was unacceptable to Shaolin.

Song Yuanqiao’s eyes showed a hint of gravity as he slowly said,”So it is Masters Du’e,Du’jie,and Du’nan.My master spoke of meeting you decades ago and regretted not hearing of you since.To learn that you’ve reached the Heaven-Man level is a cause for celebration.”

The crowd now recognized the trio.Some recalled their identities and looked astonished.

Strictly speaking,Zhang Sanfeng and these monks were of the same generation.It had been assumed they had passed away,but instead,they had achieved Heaven-Man level mastery,extending their lifespans significantly.

However,Song Yuanqiao sensed that their aura was far weaker than his master’s,likely at the lowest Heaven-Man levels,the first or second rank.

Once he processed his shock,he regained his composure.

He touched the warm talisman in his pocket,calming himself.What was there to fear from mere first-rank Heaven-Man masters?

“My junior brother said this talisman could withstand a Heaven-Man master,so it will!”Song Yuanqiao had unwavering faith in Ning Changge.

The Seven Heroes of Wudang unleashed their aura,countering the three monks’pressure,their eyes sparkling with determination.

The crowd was amazed;Wudang showed no fear even before Heaven-Man masters.

The yellow-faced Du’e chanted a Buddhist mantra softly,”We have been away from the martial world for decades,yet we are still remembered.Since your master once paid respects before Buddha,surely he would not wish for you to take the Dragon-Slaying Saber,inciting further bloodshed.”

His words subtly belittled Zhang Sanfeng.

Zhang Cuishan immediately protested,”Master’s words are inappropriate.My master did not practice martial arts at Shaolin,as widely known.My brother’s actions reflect our master’s teachings.Even if my master were here,he wouldn’t allow the Dragon-Slaying Saber to roam the martial world,causing more killings!”

“If Shaolin intends to bully us,let it be known!”

This accusation of bullying turned Shaolin monks’faces pale with frustration.

But they had no choice.Shaolin’s disciples couldn’t compete with the Seven Heroes of Wudang,hence why they summoned the three monks.

The hot-tempered black-faced Du’nan was enraged,”The Dragon-Slaying Saber was found by Shaolin.Today,your Wudang seeks to take it without following the rules and dares speak of bullying?”

“Brothers,Shaolin need not consider this trifling third-rate sect founded by a Shaolin reject.The Dragon-Slaying Saber must remain with Shaolin.If it is to be destroyed,Shaolin will do it!”

Tension escalated instantly,and even the bystanders moved back,sensing the brewing conflict.

The Seven Heroes of Wudang were furious,”You bald monk dare insult our master!”

Calling Zhang Sanfeng a Shaolin reject was a direct affront to them.

The youngest,Mo Shenggu,couldn’t hold back his rage anymore.His eyes blazing,he unleashed a sword qi,but Du’nan shattered it with a casual finger,showcasing the vast gap between Heaven-Man and Grandmaster levels.

“Excellent!Today,we’ll capture you and have Zhang Sanfeng come to Shaolin to beg for your release!”Du’nan’s face was cold,and golden light began to emanate from his body.

The Buddhist Golden Body was imposing.

The oppressive sensation spread,making the onlookers’faces pale.Some sneered at the Seven Heroes’ignorance.Even Grandmasters were like infants before Heaven-Man masters.

However,Yue Buqun and others watched with anticipation.

They remembered the terrifying Qinglong Sword Qi on Mount Song,understanding why the Seven Heroes of Wudang were so confident.

Sure enough,Mo Shenggu exploded.

His eyes blazing,he drew a talisman,”If you want my master to apologize,we’ll first crush you baldies!”

“Behold my junior brother’s talisman magic!”

Tearing the talisman,the world appeared to change color.

“Yimu Qinglong Sword Qi!Qianhuo Vermilion Bird Sword Qi!”

Roar!!

Cry!!

The roars of dragons and cries of phoenixes echoed.Terrifying sword qi materialized—vivid green Qinglong Sword Qi and fiery red Vermilion Bird Sword Qi—fiercely attacking the three Heaven-Man monks!

The crowd was dumbstruck,unable to comprehend the source of such fearsome sword qi.

Although the talismans could only manifest about thirty percent of Ning Changge’s spell power,their sheer quantity was overwhelming!

Countless sword qi filled the sky,transforming into Qinglong and Vermilion Bird forms,roaring towards the monks.

The three monks’expressions changed drastically.

The invisible force of the world was shredded.Facing such ferocious sword qi,they immediately assumed their Golden Body forms,filling the air with golden light,clashing with the Qinglong and Vermilion Bird forms.

Bang!Bang!Bang!Bang!!!!

The deafening clashes forced the onlookers to retreat repeatedly.

The Crescent Moon Villa elder and Wei Yixiao,who had previously fought the Seven Heroes,swallowed hard,eyes wide with horror.

“If they had used this sword qi earlier,wouldn’t we have been instantly killed?!”

“Who is this junior brother?Rumor has it that Zhang Zhenren took an eighth disciple;could he be this miraculous?”

Mo Shenggu’s proclamation was clear to all,prompting speculation about Wudang’s mysterious junior brother.

Each person was deeply shaken.

When had Wudang begun to transform so profoundly?

Only Yue Buqun and his group watched with bright eyes,each demonstration of the talismans’magic leaving them in awe.

At this moment,the field was filled with golden light,but under the sword qi’s bombardment,it dimmed visibly.The Seven Heroes of Wudang intermittently tore talismans,bombarding the monks,causing Shaolin monks to turn pale but not daring to intervene.

The sword qi’s power was too overwhelming!

When the bombardment finally ceased,the crowd saw that the three monks were in dire straits.

Their bodies were covered in dense wounds,bloodied.

They had formed a circle at some point,their golden light almost gone,but still with some residual force,beginning to coalesce again.

Song Yuanqiao squinted,”The Diamond Demon-Subduing Circle?Remarkable skills.I advise you three monks,refining your Golden Body is no easy task;do not waste it here!”

The monks had survived thanks to the Diamond Demon-Subduing Circle,combining their powers,nearly equal to a fourth-rank Heaven-Man master.

Yet,even so,they had almost lost their combat ability.

The monks’eyes blazed with fury,their mindsets shattered.Hearing Song Yuanqiao’s advice only angered them more,convinced that Wudang had exhausted their tricks.

“Today,you will not leave Shaolin!”

Song Yuanqiao shook his head,his eyes cold.He drew a white jade talisman,saying icily,”If you won’t listen to reason,then taste my junior brother’s Pure Yang True Fire and see your inferior Golden Body burned away!”

He crushed the talisman.

In an instant,a deep blue Pure Yang True Fire appeared,its terrifying heat shocking everyone!
