Let’s split the story into two parts. Let’s look back at the city of Jining.
Let’s say that Xie Xuanzi took his four hall masters and ran all the way towards their main altar. The journey was smooth and extremely smooth.
Of course, that's what it should be: firstly, there is only one main road from the Dharma platform to their main altar, without any turns, just run in a straight line; secondly, because today is " "Collect donations", so almost all the shops in the city were open, and the people living nearby also went to the market entrance to see the "practice", so this road was already deserted.
The five of them were running on this empty street. Although the distance was not short, they did not breathe much. After all, the five of them were all good at martial arts. His physical strength is much better than that of ordinary people.
Just like that, I ran for seven or eight minutes. I saw that the main altar was almost there, but unexpectedly, suddenly! Shi Xuanzi, who was running at the front, exclaimed: "Ah!"
The four hall masters who were following him just had time to turn around following the sound, and saw that Xie Xuanzi was already lying face down. When I went down, I fell down and gnawed on the mud.
"Leader! Are you okay?"
"Leader, let me help you!"
The reaction of the four people was not slow, and they were all pregnant. Wanting to flatter him, he wanted to be the first to rush forward and help the corpse.
But Shi Xuanzi lay there and immediately shouted: "Leave me alone! Be careful of ambush!"
Unfortunately, before he could say the word "bury" , dozens of hidden weapons flew from high places like a goddess scattering flowers.
His four hall masters are all paying attention to him at the moment. In addition, the martial arts of these four are average, so this sneak attack is enough to cause heavy damage to them...
Tong Gu, the leader of the Blue Lotus Hall, the "Invincible King Kong", stood closest to the direction of the hidden weapon, and his back was completely turned to the attacker, so he was hit by the most darts and fell first. , and couldn't stand up again.
The leader of the White Lotus Hall, "Little Hansheng" Huang Zhong, is the oldest among the four hall masters. He has extraordinary arm strength and is good at using bows and arrows. He can be regarded as a master who is proficient in long-range attacks. However... he is proficient in long-range attacks. It was only a long-range attack, not a long-range defense... He was obviously the only one facing the hidden weapon, but he failed to make any dodge and block movements. Even though he only had one dart in his throat and one in his chest, it was still the same He died immediately.
The leader of the Black Lotus Hall, "Black Wind Overlord" Jiang Ba, has better luck. Although his martial arts skills are about the same as that of Huang Zhong, fortunately, the weapons he carries with him are a pair of Xuanhua axes. When this thing turned sideways, the blocking area was relatively large, which just helped him block a few fatal darts. Therefore, he was only hit by the darts on his legs and did not die immediately.
Finally, the remaining leader of the Red Lotus Hall - "Mountain Top Arhat" He Yi, is the most powerful among all the hall leaders (including the deceased leader of the Green Lotus Hall "Green Face Patriarch" Chen The one with the highest martial arts skills (ancestor), the origin of his nickname is because he once became a monk and followed an early monk in a small mountain temple.The old monk who came out of the dog hole in Shaolin Temple learned a set of Arhat Boxing and a set of Zen introductory mental techniques.
Perhaps you may think that this is nothing remarkable at first glance. Let alone him, even the monk who taught him was a man who couldn’t even penetrate the bronze man formation and had to drill a dog. Someone who came out of the hole?
Then you are wrong.
The person who taught him had no talent and could not endure hardship, so he slipped away. If the person who practices Kungfu is not good, it does not mean that the Kungfu he teaches is not good either.
The authentic Zen boxing techniques of Shaolin and the corresponding Zen mental techniques, even for entry-level people, will never be weak if they are practiced to perfection.
He Yi was more talented than his master, so he practiced this skill and soon surpassed his master.
Of course, it is not much better, because Zen martial arts has its own special characteristics...
Most of the martial arts of other sects only focus on "moves" and "inner skills (mind methods)" "The two complement each other. Only when you reach mastery or attainment will the so-called "artistic conception" appear.
Although there are some that require all three of "moves", "inner strength" and "artistic conception" from the beginning, such as Zhang Sanfeng's Tai Chi Tai Chi Sword, but those are mostly "magic skills" level Martial arts is rare.
As for Zen martial arts, it requires "moves", "internal strength" and "Buddhism" to complement each other. The rules are generally -
Learn entry-level martial arts When: The moves are simple and easy to learn, but most of them are clumsy and have average power; internal skills are difficult to develop, but the foundation is solid; even if you don’t understand much about Buddhism, the impact will not be great.
When learning advanced martial arts: the moves gradually become more complex and more powerful, but the hostility also increases; the internal strength grows steadily, and even people with dull qualifications are not inferior to most in internal strength at this stage. The same level of internal strength from other sects; one needs to be enlightened in Buddhism in order to suppress the hostility that grows along with force.
When learning stunt-level martial arts: the moves are exquisite and powerful, and can easily cause death or disability; the internal strength is powerful and can still increase steadily as time goes by; in Buddhism, it is necessary to achieve certain attainments. In order to resolve the hostility and prevent one from going crazy, the second is to be able to freely control one's martial arts.
Beyond these three stages, there is also the "Dacheng" stage, which is the state that only the top masters can reach, but it is not easy to generalize.
Taking these first three stages as an example, it is not difficult to see that after practicing Zen Kung Fu to a certain bottleneck, if you want to break through, you must first have a certain understanding of "Buddhism", otherwise it will be extremely difficult to break through. It is easy to get carried away and become possessed. Jiumozhi in "Dragon" is a good example.
With Jiumozhi's extreme intelligence and qualifications, he couldn't do anything by force, let alone He Yi, so his kung fu was stuck at the upper limit of entry-level.
But no matter what, with this little effort, He Yi managed to dodge this wave of hidden weapons and was unscathed for the time being.
At the same time...
"Taiyi True Immortal helps my soul, Yin Shou Yang Guan moves the sky to listen... rise! "The corpse lying on the ground also quickly chanted the incantation. After reciting it, he paused for a second and then got up with a movement that looked very laborious.
"He Fang Rats! You actually set up a formation to assassinate me, why don't you show up soon? "After getting up, Zhi Xuanzi shouted loudly in the direction from which the hidden weapon flew.
And the person who attacked them did indeed lean out from the roof in that direction.
p>
Unsurprisingly, that person was Huang Donglai.
"Humph! It's you! "Xi Xuanzi also guessed that it was probably this guy, and this sneak attack made him even more convinced... When he was destroying the temple a few days ago, this "Old Immortal Xudong" was indeed just bluffing, because a man with a cultivation level in People above me don't need to set up an ambush here, let alone use hidden weapons and other tricks.
"It's me, what's wrong? "Huang Donglai looked out on the roof and saw that after his first wave of attacks, two of the opponents were dead and one was injured, so he felt relieved a lot and his attitude became arrogant.
" Haha ..." Shi Xuanzi said with a ferocious smile, "Boy, I don't care if you are Xudong Old Immortal or Xudong Little Immortal. Just by the power of your formation, I can tell that your cultivation is lower than mine. , you dare to fight me like this, I think you are impatient with life, right? "
Huang Donglai also understands this matter without him having to say it.
The "Hundred-Step Magic Array" that Huang Donglai set up here today has a very simple mechanism, and its advantage lies in The time required to arrange it is very short, and it does not require too many props. As for its power, it mainly depends on the power of the caster...
If a master like Mianyinzi were to arrange this here today In this formation, when Shi Xuanzi steps into the range of the formation, it is not a "dog chewing mud" but a "human being turned into mud". However, in the formation set up by Huang Donglai, Xi Xuanzi can offset six or seven of its effects with just one "breaking technique" The biggest impact is that I feel a little heavy when I stand inside.
“How can you know who will die and who will live if you don’t try? "After a breath, Huang Donglai replied while taking out a brocade bag from his arms.
This brocade bag was not someone else's. It was Jiang Muchan who "walked away from Shi Xuanzi's body that day" "One of the two things.
Xi Xuanzi saw Huang Donglai take out this thing from a distance. He also frowned and thought to himself.
What is in the bag? What is it?
It is actually a "curse" refined by Shi Yanzi using the heavenly materials and earthly treasures he has collected over the years, called "Piluchou"
This "Vairu" is the name of the Buddha. If you add the word "sorrow" at the end, it means that as long as this thing is used, even if the Buddha comes, it will be difficult to understand.
< p>Of course, that's all. If there were immortals and Buddhas alive, how could they be afraid of something made by a mortal like you?Furthermore, we also mentioned it in the previous document, corpses? Although Xanzi's master was very good at refining magical weapons, Xianzi didn't learn much in this area, so he madeThis "Bi Lu Chou" is not very powerful. According to the familiar grade classification, it can be regarded as a "blue quality" item at most.
Originally, Shi Xuanzi was going to find an opportunity to make up a lie and let Zhu Xuan wear this thing as an amulet. Then he would use his own magic to cooperate with this curse, and slowly and slowly over time, he would I was slow to confuse the little prince's mind, but I didn't expect that before he could even mention this problem that night, Jiang Muchan came to disrupt the situation.
Now that he saw this thing falling into Huang Donglai's hands, Xi Xuanzi couldn't help but be a little scared, because he knew that if he knew how to use it, the other party could use this thing to display a very powerful "intimidation" "the art of".
And Huang Donglai... Since he has taken out all these things now, it naturally shows that he can use them.
"Xi Yuan Xie Mo Sui Dao leads, the evil eight wastes occupy the devil's heart, Tai Qing Xuan Sage, help me carry out my work, as urgent as a law or order!"
It was too late then. Quickly, after taking out the brocade bag, Huang Donglai quickly chanted the formula. At the same time, he picked up the village sword in his hand and pointed the tip of the sword at the brocade bag in his hand.
Huh——
The next second, a ball of blue flame ignited on the "Piluchou".
Before the fire burned his hands, Huang Donglai flicked his arm and threw the "Piluchou" into the street.
When Xi Xuanzi saw this, he turned around and ran away.
He is also a cultivator, so he naturally knows that such a method of casting a spell by directly "burning and sacrificing" the cursed object is tantamount to squeezing out all the potential of the magic weapon at once in order to maximize its potential. An effect that exceeds its normal power.
For Huang Donglai, this is a quite normal choice: First, his moral conduct is not as good as that of Shi Xuanzi. Even if he laid an ambush here in advance, he is still not sure of victory, so he uses It was necessary to get this; secondly...this thing originally belonged to someone else, and it was evil, so he didn't feel bad if it was burned.
"Ah!" On the other side, the corpse turned around and took two steps before he shouted again.
This time, it was not because he fell, but because he hit an invisible wall.
"You!" Shi Xuanzi understood at this collision that the opponent had more than one formation here. Before he just stepped into the "Hundred Steps of Demonic Trap Formation", he had already made several Stepping into another larger formation outside of the "Hundred-Step Magic Array", and that larger formation, to put it simply... is a "can only enter but not exit" enchantment.
Although it is not difficult to break this barrier based on Shi Xuanzi's Taoism, it still takes a little time.
But right now...he doesn't have that time.
Just a second after he hit the "air wall", the "Piluchou" thrown by Huang Donglai onto the street had already landed and turned into a burst of green powder and exploded.
Xi Xuanzi looked back and his heart sank. Big beads of sweat were already dripping from his temples: "It's over..."
When he murmured these two words,When he spoke, the scene in front of him began to distort.
The sky in front of him instantly turned red, and the earth under his feet also looked red under the red sky. A strong smell of sulfur rushed into his nose, making him almost vomit. out.
In a moment, the streets around the corpse no longer existed, replaced by stretches of wasteland covered with volcanic ash, and rivers of fire rolling with lava.
Of course, in this strange and wild land, the most terrifying thing is not the environment, but the countless zombies have never seen... terrifying local creatures.
