Zhao Mingyuan suddenly drew his sword to challenge, which naturally caught everyone off guard.
After realizing what was going on, the monks who were preparing to listen to the Dharma were extremely angry.
After all, Zhao Mingyuan not only disturbed them to listen to the master's lecture on Buddhism, but also wanted to attack the master they respected.
They all greatly admired the Buddhist monk's cultivation and wisdom, but they did not have a clear understanding of the monk's strength.
Therefore, everyone spoke out to stop it.
The Shaolin monks were even more anxious. After all, all the Shaolin masters had been defeated by Jiumozhi, and the only one who had won, Xuanci, had just passed away.
If Zhao Mingyuan wanted to challenge Shaolin at this time, Shaolin really didn't have enough masters to compete.
Are we going to let this sweeping monk compete in a competition?
This sweeping monk seems to have a high level of Buddhist practice, but his martial arts skills have not been revealed at all. He looks like a senior monk who concentrates on Buddhism.
There are many monks in the Shaolin Temple who are devoted to Buddhism and have never practiced martial arts. They are all people who have studied Buddhism deeply but have no interest in martial arts.
Therefore, the Shaolin monks knew that they had little hope in the possibility of the sweeping monk possessing superb martial arts skills.
However, Jiumozhi on the side suddenly said: "This holy monk just said that the higher the Dharma and the stronger the compassion, the more profound Shaolin's martial arts can be cultivated.
And given the level of the divine monk, his martial arts must be extraordinary. He must be the best in the world as Daxia Zhao said, right?
No wonder Zhao Daxia was so happy to meet Liexin. It must be because we are blind and cannot see the charisma of the divine monk. "
What Jiumozhi said was to use his spear to attack his shield, and to use the point of view just mentioned by the sweeping monk to refute the monks.
If what the sweeping monk said is true, then he will naturally have strong martial arts skills and be able to compete with Zhao Mingyuan.
And if he didn't have such profound martial arts, then what he just said must be just nonsense, and it would be difficult to convince people.
After hearing Jiumozhi's words, everyone couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Although in everyone's mind, this sweeping monk is indeed highly educated in Buddhism, and what he said is very reasonable. But whether he really has such high martial arts skills is still doubtful in everyone's mind.
Could it be that all this sweeping monk said was just to make people stop coveting the books in the Shaolin Scripture Pavilion? Everyone murmured secretly in their hearts.
The sweeping monk seemed to see what everyone was thinking, and knew that if he really retreated, those words he just said would be in vain, and it would cause more trouble for Shaolin.
So, the sweeping monk said to Zhao Mingyuan: "Almsgiver Zhao is indeed of a profound state and has a compassionate heart. There is no problem even if he practices my Shaolin stunts.
However, as the head of the Xiaoyao Sect, Benefactor Zhao, although his basic skills are based on Taoist skills, they seem to be patchworked together from a variety of skills, including my Buddhist skills, but they appear to be a bit mixed.
If you can get rid of the clutter and retain the true, and gain a comprehensive understanding, you will definitely be able to go a step further, and I will no longer be an opponent.
However, since Benefactor Zhao is determined to fight with Lao Na, Lao Na will accompany him. "
Ha, Zhao Mingyuan heard the sweeping monk say that if he could understand everything, he would not be his opponent. Doesn't this mean that he can never beat him now?
It seems that this sweeping monk is also quite arrogant.
Of course, maybe people think that they are just telling the truth?
However, the sweeping monk directly recognized Zhao Mingyuan as the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, which must have recognized the leader's ring on Zhao Mingyuan's hand.
It seems that he is very familiar with Xiaoyao Sect.
In the original work written by Zhao Mingyuan, the sweeping monk can recognize Jiumozhi's formless magic. I wonder what connection he had with the Xiaoyao Sect before?
Is it true, as some people have speculated, that the sweeping monk is actually Li Canghai, or is he Xiaoyaozi?
However, no matter who the sweeping monk's true identity is, the only thing Zhao Mingyuan wants to do now is to defeat him.
Naturally, it was not convenient for the two of them to do anything inside the Sutra Pavilion, so soon everyone arrived on a nearby hillside. The terrain here is gentle and open, surrounded by mountains, which is extremely spectacular.
Gradually, many people who had not yet come down the mountain discovered the situation here and gathered around, and the scene gradually became lively.
The two were already standing opposite each other, unmoved by the crowd watching the battle, just staring at each other, as if peeping at each other's flaws.
Zhao Mingyuan holds a long sword in his hand, with a tall and straight posture and a calm and confident expression. The sweeping monk put his hands together, with no intention of taking action, as if he could stand like this until the end of the world.
Seeing that the other party had no intention of taking action, Zhao Mingyuan took the first step to test.
I saw Zhao Mingyuan casually hit the sword with a wave of his hand and held it in a sword flower. An arc-shaped sword light left the body and flew towards the sweeping monk.
The sword light quickly crossed the distance between the two people, but before the sweeping monk was three feet away, it seemed to encounter an invisible barrier.
The sword light became slower and slower, and became smaller and smaller. It completely melted before it reached a foot in front of the sweeping monk.
The whole process of the sword light melting seemed to be smooth and there was no sound of collision of energy. It melted naturally like Tang Wo Xue.
Good idea!
Although Zhao Mingyuan's move was just a test, the internal energy gathered in this move was quite a lot, and the number of masters in the world who could forcefully catch it was definitely not more than five fingers.
I didn't expect that the sweeping monk would resolve it so easily.
With just this move, Zhao Mingyuan understood that there was no need to use ordinary methods.
Next, Zhao Mingyuan directly used one sword to create all kinds of magic. The long sword in his hand seemed to fly into a silver lightning and rushed straight towards the sweeping monk.
Since Zhao Mingyuan created this sword technique, he has never faced an enemy, and there is no one worthy of him using this move.
Now, this trick is used to deal with the sweeping monk.
I saw that Zhao Mingyuan's sword was unpredictable. Sometimes it was suppressed by a mountain, sometimes it was like a breeze blowing, sometimes the sword came out like fire, and sometimes it was as cold as ice. It is unimaginable that the sword's intention and sword force actually changed in the blink of an eye. Dozens of times.
Everyone watching the battle is a master of martial arts, and many of them are well-known figures in the world. Looking at Zhao Mingyuan's sword, everyone was sweating in their hearts.
Everyone thought that if they faced Zhao Mingyuan's sword in a different place, they might not know how to resist it, and they would be defeated and die.
Faced with Zhao Mingyuan's fierce offensive, the sweeping monk still clasped his hands together and seemed to have no intention of taking action.
However, it seemed that Zhao Mingyuan was stronger than he expected. The sweeping monk did not dare to underestimate the enemy. He used all his strength to resist Zhao Mingyuan's sword. The three-foot wall of energy in front of him became more condensed and had substance.
Others only saw the sparkling water in front of the sweeping monk, and could not see his face clearly, but they already understood how powerful he was.
As if he had sensed the obstacles ahead, when Zhao Mingyuan's sword came in front of the sweeping monk, it had already become sharp and fast, with the aura to break all obstacles.
The light of his sword was so sharp that when it struck the sweeping monk's Qi wall, it was like ripping a piece of silk.
In front of the sweeping monk, it was like a deep sea, with heavy waves blocking Zhao Mingyuan's sword.
But Zhao Mingyuan's sword was like a swimming fish, easily passing through obstacles one after another, looking for gaps and moving forward. Going upstream seems to be sprinting towards the dragon gate.
Although the further you move forward, the greater the pressure and the greater the obstacles. But the fish seemed to have adapted to the environment and rushed faster and faster.
In the blink of an eye, this sword had broken through the majestic wall of energy in front of the sweeping monk, breaking through the seemingly insurmountable barrier, and the sword tip stabbed straight into the sweeping monk's chest.
The sweeping monk was also shocked at this time. Unexpectedly, in an instant, his three-foot energy wall was broken by Zhao Mingyuan's sword.
Faced with Zhao Mingyuan's sword stabbing him in the chest, the sweeping monk had no choice but to step back half a step with his left foot, then used his right hand to strike out with Zhao Mingyuan's long sword.
This move is none other than the Great Vajra Palm among the seventy-two unique skills of Shaolin. Yes, this is completely different from what Abbot Xuanci used. People can't believe that it is the same palm technique.
As soon as the sweeper's palm came out, the power of his palm surged forward, like a wall of energy, hitting Zhao Mingyuan.
Before the force of the palm arrives, the wind of the palm arrives first. It's like the waves crashing, one wave after another, with violent force and unpredictable changes in strength. The blending and transformation of the two powers is indeed difficult to resolve.
However, being able to force the sweeping monk to take action was an initial victory for Zhao Mingyuan.
Zhao Mingyuan and Wang Yuyan had studied carefully for a long time before and came up with many ways to deal with the sweeping monk. Finally, they came up with this sword to break through the sweeping monk's three-foot energy wall.
Sure enough, one move worked out well today, forcing the sweeping monk to take action.
Seeing everything proceeding as Zhao Mingyuan and Wang Yuyan had deduced, Zhao Mingyuan understood that he had already won half of this competition.
As for the Sweeping Monk's palm, even though the palm power is surging and the internal energy is surging, it is even more powerful than the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. But so what?
Competing moves and fighting, when has Zhao Mingyuan ever lost?
This has entered its own turn.
Sure enough, facing the oncoming energy wall, Zhao Mingyuan moved his feet slightly, the sword intention on his sword became sharper, and he rushed towards the sweeping monk again.
The sweeping monk was still as steady as a mountain. He raised his palms calmly, and a powerful air flow roared out, aiming at Zhao Mingyuan.
Zhao Mingyuan did not show any weakness, and the aura on his sword became stronger and stronger, and the battle between the two became more and more intense.
There was silence on the entire hillside, as people were afraid of disturbing the war situation in the slightest. They witnessed a magical and splendid battle, and also witnessed a gorgeous martial arts legend.
The competition between the sweeping monk and Zhao Mingyuan made people know for the first time that martial arts can be practiced to such an extent, and also let people know that the peak of martial arts can be so strong.
Although the sweeping monk's bare-handed combat and three-foot air wall defense are almost unmatched, Zhao Mingyuan's swordsmanship is even better.
As the competition progressed, Zhao Mingyuan became more courageous and gradually gained an overwhelming advantage.
