The chanting of Buddhist prayers echoed.
The old monk immediately led the monks to sit down cross-legged and began to chant the Rebirth Sutra!
Li Qingcang remained silent, standing there for a long time.
Until a leaf slowly drifted down onto his feet, at that moment, he seemed to realize something.
He suddenly burst into laughter, as if he had lost his mind.
"You bald monk from Huaihai! Don't even think about interfering with my Dao heart!"
"You and I are but like these falling leaves, a hundred years passing in the blink of an eye!"
"Even for this moment, I will shine with the most beautiful radiance!"
"You have your path, and I have mine! We each walk our own path; this is the way of heaven! Hahahaha!"
Li Qingcang laughed maniacally, and then—BOOM!
With one stomp, the centuries-old tree in the courtyard collapsed.
The monks were so frightened that they all ran away.
Li Qingcang strode forward, turning his hand into a knife, and began to carve and chop at the giant tree. Before long, a square wooden niche appeared before everyone's eyes.
He glanced at Elder Huaihai's body and said calmly, "Although we didn't fight, I have indeed benefited greatly from these seven days! Now I have a complete understanding of life and death. This wooden shrine is my way of repaying your kindness!"
boom!
With a wave of his hand, Li Qingcang caused the wooden niche to instantly fly up and land on the ground with a clang.
At the same time, he disappeared from the courtyard.
The monks looked at each other in bewilderment. They all turned to look at the old monk.
The old monk's eyes were filled with complex emotions as he shook his head. "My senior brother originally intended to use his own death to convert him and extinguish his bloodlust, but unexpectedly, it instead helped him break through the demons in his heart and strengthen his resolve to follow the path of killing! If I'm not mistaken, his cultivation will actually improve after leaving Mount Song. I'm afraid the martial world is about to face a bloodbath!"
...
The old monk was right!
Before challenging Elder Huaihai, Li Qingcang was already at the peak of the Grandmaster realm, just one step away from perfection.
Don't underestimate this step; for the vast majority of grandmasters, it could be an insurmountable barrier!
Once a grandmaster has perfected their true qi cultivation, they can soar through the air and kill with a single breath!
This is the realm of Great Perfection, only one step away from becoming a Martial Saint!
It can be said that even among ten thousand grandmasters, perhaps only one could cultivate true qi to perfection.
This is because quantitative change has led to qualitative change. The body's energy channels have been fully opened, all the orifices are open, and lifespan will increase by one-third!
Their strength is immeasurable; even if a hundred grandmasters attacked together, they might not be able to harm a single hair on a grandmaster at the Great Perfection stage.
Ten miles away from Mount Song, in a forest.
Li Qingcang leaped through the forest and arrived at a waterfall, which was where he had previously secluded himself for cultivation.
At this moment, he felt his internal energy surging uncontrollably, and some previously closed acupoints were on the verge of bursting. His skin also began to crack, oozing bright red blood, turning him into a blood-soaked figure!
However, he felt no fear whatsoever; on the contrary, he was quite excited.
Because as long as he goes into seclusion now and breaks through these acupoints, he can immediately step into the Great Perfection realm!
"Chief!"
At this moment, a disciple suddenly emerged from the forest. Seeing Li Qingcang covered in blood, he was initially startled, then immediately knelt on the ground. He excitedly asked, "Chief, I heard a constant wailing from Mount Song. Could it be that you killed that bald monk from Huaihai?"
Li Qingcang shook his head and sighed, "That old bald monk avoided battle and eventually died in meditation. Humph! He wanted to use his own demise to teach me a lesson! It's utterly ridiculous! I've cultivated the Great Clumsy Skill since childhood, enduring what others cannot. He thinks he can change my nature with this? That's nothing short of a fool's dream!"
"However, after sitting in meditation with him for seven days, I haven't come away empty-handed. This time, I've actually calmed down my previous restlessness and comprehended the supreme killing path, solidifying my resolve on my path! Hahaha, when I break through this barrier, the entire martial world will tremble for me, Li Qingcang!! Hahahaha!"
Boom!
The waterfall exploded, trees flew everywhere, and wild beasts in the forest howled and trembled.
The disciple knelt on the ground, extremely excited, "Congratulations, Grand Master! Congratulations, Grand Master! It seems that the position of Martial Arts Alliance Leader in this Martial Arts Tournament is rightfully yours!"
Li Qingcang nodded, then asked, "What's the situation in Guanzhong now? I asked you to inquire about my grandson's whereabouts before, have you found anything?"
The disciple's face was grim. He lowered his voice and said, "Master, I've found out about the young master. After he went mad, he was sent to a mental hospital, but Tiger rescued him. However, for some reason, Tiger was also poisoned by that brat from the Lin family and died a violent death. As a result, the young master was also blinded in one eye!"
"What??"
brush!
Li Qingcang used his large hand to pull his disciple towards him from a distance, grabbing him by the neck.
The disciple's face flushed red as he pleaded with difficulty, "Master, please, please calm down!"
call!
Li Qingcang waved his hand and threw him to the ground. Although he had calmed down a bit, his body was still trembling uncontrollably.
Although years of cultivation had hardened his heart to be as strong as diamond, he was still furious upon learning of his grandson's miserable state!
"My poor grandson! It's all my fault for not protecting you!"
Li Qingcang's eyes slowly revealed a chilling killing intent as he coldly said, "Lin family brat, you just wait and see, I will never let you go! The day I return to Guanzhong will be your death day! No, I will tear your tendons and skin you alive in front of everyone at the Martial Arts Tournament!! Ahhh!!"
Li Qingcang roared to the sky, venting his anger.
He stared coldly at his disciple and said, "I am about to break through to the next level. In the martial arts tournament a few days from now, I will take this boy's life! Go back and tell all the families, big and small, in Guanzhong that when I return to the city, every family must come out ten miles outside the city and kneel down to welcome me! Anyone who does not come will be considered an enemy of the Martial Alliance and will be killed without mercy!"
