"However, your foundation is still too weak. All your abilities rely on spiritual support. This ability to ignore attacks is indeed powerful, but how long can you, at the fourth level, maintain it?"
At this moment, Kongjian seemed to have adjusted his mindset and regained the composure of a master, looking every bit like an enlightened monk.
As a sixth-tier expert, he deeply understood the principle of cutting his losses in time. Since he had already lost face, there was nothing more to lose. All he needed to do next was to remain unchanged and preserve his last shred of dignity.
However, he underestimated the wickedness of human nature.
Faced with Kong Jian's indifference, Fang Xiu only said one sentence, which broke Kong Jian's defenses.
"Tear his clothes off."
Kong Jian's expression suddenly changed, and his previous composure vanished instantly.
"You...you...you young man, you have no sportsmanship!"
Having dealt with the supernatural for many years, he never imagined that people's hearts could be so treacherous!
In comparison, the bizarre creature that only wants to eat people seems too naive.
Upon receiving the order, the wife immediately took action, her ghostly figure speeding through the void, leaving behind trails of afterimages.
"You bastard! How dare you!" Kong Jian's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly dodged, disappearing several miles away as if by teleportation.
The sixth-tier expert displayed his speed to the fullest, but his wife still followed closely behind.
As she gently raised her hand.
Tear!
Kongjian's robe was torn open, leaving a large hole. The robe did not have his self-healing ability, and only a few tattered strips of cloth were left fluttering in the wind.
What was exposed on her chest shocked everyone.
Because it wasn't a human chest!
To be precise, only half of it is a human chest, while the other half is a mummified corpse!
The half of the mummified corpse was covered with scarlet tadpole-like characters, which seemed to wriggle faintly, exuding an indescribable eeriness and evil.
Each of the two occupies half of the chest, with what appears to be a dividing line in the middle, like the clear distinction between the Chu and Han borders.
Upon seeing this scene, Fang Xiu's eyes flickered slightly, something strange?
Has this old monk also become eerie?
No, that's not right. This feeling is different from that of the Ace of Spades and the others. If it were a transformation into something supernatural, it would definitely have a strong eerie aura. But Kong Jian only has Buddhist light on him, a Buddhist light like that of a true Buddha descending to earth, radiating a quiet and peaceful aura.
His aura was even more stable than that of an average spirit master.
There is no risk of spiritual loss of control in him.
But what about that half-corpse? That feeling was definitely eerie.
etc!
Fang Xiu suddenly thought of Zhou Qingfeng!
When Zhou Qingfeng sealed the burial site, he dismembered the forbidden monster and used its body to sever the connection between heaven and earth. However, in the illusion of the previous era, Zhou Qingfeng actually ripped out his own heart.
Could it be...?
He vaguely guessed the key to the sixth rank.
Just as Fang Xiu was speculating, gasps of surprise rang out from the crowd.
"Master Kongjian is a mystery!"
"He's a monster in human skin!"
Faith can crumble in an instant. Who would have thought that the kind-faced Buddhist abbot would have half of his body covered in strange ailments?
Just like a good person who has done ten thousand good deeds, but when he does one bad thing, he will be condemned by everyone.
But a bad person can become a Buddha on the spot by doing just one good deed.
"You old bald monk! You still say that Brother Xiu relies on his strange abilities, but you yourself are a strange being. What a double standard!" Yang Ming didn't tolerate a sixth-level cultivator and started mocking Fang Xiu from behind.
Seeing the faint fear in everyone's eyes, Kong Jian's expression turned cold, and his gaze toward Fang Xiu flashed with murderous intent. He knew that if this matter was not handled properly, it could very likely shake the foundation of Buddhism.
Because Buddhist sects need to attract a wide number of believers, once the news spreads that the abbot of a Buddhist sect is a mysterious figure, who would dare to come to a Buddhist sect?
call!
He took a deep breath and chanted a Buddhist prayer: "Namo Amitabha Buddha, this old monk is not a monster."
The sound was so loud, like thunder, that it drowned out all other noises.
"Bullshit!" Yang Ming shouted at the top of his lungs. Although he didn't have any supernatural powers, he had a loud voice.
"What the hell is that on you? It's shit! Do you think we're blind?"
At this moment, the liar Xiao Chuxia seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire: "Everyone! Listen to me, I am Captain Fang's personal secretary, so I know some inside information that others don't know."
I once saw a confidential document containing a shocking secret: this Buddhist sect, which seems to be saving all sentient beings, is actually deceiving you believers. Recently, there have been frequent disappearances of believers. According to our headquarters' investigation, all those missing believers were eaten by this old monk.
He is a monster in human skin, who needs to eat a pair of young boys and girls every day to maintain his human form!
Wow!
These words caused an uproar among the crowd.
The secretary of the Xia Kingdom's chief captain revealed a secret about Buddhism: the highly respected abbot was actually a cannibalistic monster in private.
It's already a top story in the world news.
Moreover, Xiao Chuxia's words clearly utilized her own abilities, greatly enhancing their persuasiveness.
Yang Ming and the others silently gave Xiao Chuxia a thumbs up. What inside information, what confidential documents, and even a pair of virgin boys and girls every day? She could spout such lies so easily.
They were both from headquarters and had never seen such confidential documents or heard of such so-called inside information.
Kong Jian was so angry his face turned green. "I, this old monk, eat vegetarian food and chant scriptures every day, and occasionally have a chicken leg. When have I ever eaten a human? This is going to uproot the Buddhist community!"
As the saying goes, it takes only a mouth to spread rumors, but it takes a lot of legwork to refute them. If these rumors are not clarified today, Buddhism will definitely be disgraced.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Kong Jian flew into a rage, and the Buddhist light around him surged like golden flames, its violent power shaking the entire area.
Xiao Chuxia turned pale with fright and screamed, "Murder to silence us! Everyone here will be silenced. Running away is useless. Who can outrun a sixth-level expert? The only way now is for everyone to unite and defeat that old bald monk!"
"Enough!" Kong Jian shouted, constantly turning the Buddhist beads in his hand and chanting scriptures. Countless Buddhist sounds filled the entire place, and the people who had been stirred up by Xiao Chuxia gradually calmed down.
"This old monk is not a monster, this is the secret of the sixth rank! The way to advance to the sixth rank is to control a sixth-rank monster, break the limits of mind and body, and unite spirit and body to become a spiritual body!"
Upon hearing this, the room fell silent, and everyone's eyes flickered as they pondered Kong Jian's words.
The secret of the sixth order?
This earth-shattering secret, which was only held by the powerful figures of the previous era, has unexpectedly been revealed to the public today.
Xiao Chuxia's mouth was slightly open. She never expected that the lie she made up on the spur of the moment would reveal such a big secret.
Seeing the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, Kong Jian felt a pang of heartache; he had suffered a huge loss.
