Chapter 933: Great Strength Vajrapani Formula
The Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift!
Gao Hanshan, the clan leader of the Gao clan, and Chen Wuhui, the Sect Leader of the Intentionless Sect, as well as some of those from the Ming Preservation Faction, were so excited they were flushed.
The Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift was the absolute highest martial art technique in the Ming Cult’s lore. Even for them, it was a legend among legends. The cult leaders of the Ming Cult only cultivated the Heaven and Earth Great Shift. As for the Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift, only one cult leader in all of history had cultivated it. He was the legendary 34th cult leader.
Only when one had cultivated both the Nine Yang Divine Technique and the Nine Yin Divine Technique successfully would one have the right to cultivate the Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift.
Furthermore, even if one managed to successfully cultivate both the Nine Yang Divine Technique and the Nine Yin Divine Technique, one might not be able to use the Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift. That was because only someone who cultivated the legendary Yin Yang Qi would be able truly and successfully to harness this martial art technique.
Mo Wen’s Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift earlier had only scratched the surface. Yet, even so, the power behind it was already like that of ordinary rite of passage martial arts.
Rite of passage martial arts were the highest form of such skills cultivated by warriors in the Primordial Soul realm. Only when one reached the Primordial Soul realm could one thoroughly cultivate this type of technique.
And above the rite of passage martial arts was the path of martial arts. If the rite of passage martial arts constituted a complete profound meaning, then the path of martial arts were a complete path.
Profound meaning, paths, big paths, and heavenly paths were the four different realms of understanding heaven and earth.
It was difficult to understand the big paths, and even harder to understand the heavenly paths. Ordinary immortal cultivators usually wavered around the profound meaning realm and the path realm. As for the big path realm, once one understood that, one could be considered a divine soul.
Usually, only warriors in the Tide Changing realm and above had the right to understand and cultivate the path of martial arts.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMo Wen was not even in the Primordial Soul realm, but he had managed to cultivate the Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift to its initial realms. That was, indeed, something rather odd. Not even that other person managed to do something like this way back then. That was also why the Sinister Wind Sect was so afraid of Mo Wen.
Mo Wen defeated the Heavenly Sea Sect and successfully made it into the top four. Other than Dafang, the other sects that entered the top four included the Sinister Wind Sect, the Goddess Cult, and the Golden Buddha Sect. Those three were all top sects in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. They were all extremely powerful, and the people they sent were naturally not run-of-the-mill.
The battle of the top four began quickly. The competitors in each match were once again decided by drawing lots. Mo Wen drew the Golden Buddha Sect while the Goddess Cult drew the Sinister Wind Sect.
The Golden Buddha Sect was a Buddhist sect. The disciples were all monks who had pure hearts and few desires. They primarily worked hard at cultivating, and most of them were very accomplished in martial arts.
The Golden Buddha Sect was led by Monk Tongming this time around. His cultivation levels were very high, and he was by no means weaker than Yang Zonglin. In fact, he was even stronger than Yang Zonglin. Among those of the “Tong” generation in the Golden Buddha Sect, all of whom were experts, there were few whose abilities were stronger than him.
Among their warriors, those who succeeded in cultivating could become the master of another person who started cultivating before him. In the Golden Buddha Sect, one’s seniority did not depend on when one started training but instead on how powerful one’s cultivation was. The higher one’s cultivation, the higher one’s seniority. If Monk Tongming successfully broke through to the Primordial Soul realm, then his seniority would move from the “Tong” generation to the “Hua” generation.
“Benefactor Mo is very gifted. I admire you greatly and know that I am no match for you. However, I am not willing to give up without fighting.”
Monk Tongming led the others from the Golden Buddha Sect towards the field. They bowed slightly to Mo Wen.
“Master, you are too kind.” Mo Wen bowed back stiffly. Mo Wen did not wish to make any more enemies unless necessary. It would be best to have a good relationship with everyone. He could sense that the other sects from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm all looked at him and treated him differently since he had used the Yin Yang Qi and the Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift.
Even though he still did not know why everyone was behaving this way, he could sense from their reactions that it definitely something bad. At least, the Sinister Wind Sect suddenly bore great enmity towards him. They actually hated him.
“Seeing as Benefactor Mo can defeat the benefactors from the Heavenly Sea Sect, we are definitely no match for you. I saw earlier that Benefactor Mo is extremely powerful. You seem to have cultivated a body-refining secret technique. Meanwhile, I cultivated in the Golden Buddha Sect’s Great Strength Vajrapani Formula. I am quite adept at this. How about we pit our skills against one other’s and have a simple duel?” Monk Tongming said.
He had watched Mo Wen’s match against the Heavenly Sea sect. The young man’s cultivation levels were very high and difficult to gauge. He had not even given his all to defeat those from the Heavenly Sea Sect. The Golden Buddha Sect and the Heavenly Sea Sect’s ability levels were very similar. In fact, the Golden Buddha Sect might, on the whole, have been weaker than the Heavenly Sea Sect. As such, it was unlikely that they would defeat Mo Wen.
Hence, Monk Tongming limited their fight to a match-up using their body-refining secret techniques. He would go against Mo Wen in an area in which he was proficient. Perhaps he might be able to get in a hit or two.
Mo Wen raised his eyebrows. They would pit skill against skill and fight using body-refining techniques? Others might not realize this, but he knew that his body-refining technique was one of his strongest skill sets. The old monk was not aware of this, and had dared to pick this area to fight against Mo Wen.
“Benefactor Mo, please rest assured. This competition is just a simple duel. No matter what happens, the Golden Buddha Sect will withdraw from the competition,” Monk Tongming said.
He thought that Mo Wen was hesitating because he did not speak. Everyone knew that the Buddhist sects were all extremely skilled at body-refining techniques. Almost all of them cultivated the indestructible Body of Vajrapani. If he limited the competition to this area, it would seem a little unfair. Tongming had never wanted to take advantage of this and ask Mo Wen to not use the Yin Yang Qi and Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift in their fight.
He had decided to withdraw from the competition, and so he suggested this. The Golden Buddha Sect was not one that could accept losses.
In truth, Tongming was not the most powerful person of the “Tong” generation in the Golden Buddha Sect. There were several seniors who were more powerful than he was. However, those seniors either were focused on their cultivation or lead unworldly lives. They would not come to participate in the martial arts circle convention. Of course, if they had known that a rare talent like Mo Wen would appear at the martial arts circle convention, they would probably have been very interested and have come to the event.
“Master, you are being too serious. We will do as you say and just compete using only the body refining secret technique.”
Mo Wen nodded lightly. He had had no intention of rejecting the offer in the first place. The Golden Buddha Sect was so forthright he could not find a reason to object.
“If that’s the case, then I have offended you.”
Tongming placed his palms together, and rays of brilliant golden light shone from his body. Around him, sand and rocks flew into the air. Tongming’s body grew three feet. His originally thin body expanded, and his muscles bulged out. He looked muscular and strong. If this change were to happen to anyone else, it would make them look ferocious and sinister. However, Tongming seemed even more peaceful and benign.
Power and calmness melded together harmoniously.
The monks of the Golden Buddha Sect glanced at each other and backed away. They knew that their senior wanted to fight Mo Wen alone and did not want them to work together to attack him.
“Tongming’s Great Strength Vajrapani Formula has already reached its peak and is beyond the mortal realm. Only those old ones from the Golden Buddha Sect in the Primordial Soul realm would be able to surpass him. While Tongming might not be the most powerful among the ‘Tong’ generation of the Golden Buddha Sect, no one is his match in the body-refining technique.”
Hu Shuo laughed coldly. That young man cultivated Yin Yang Qi and the Yin Yang Heaven and Earth Great Shift. His understanding of the laws of profound meaning was also very scary. However, when competing purely in the body-refining technique, even two of Mo Wen might not be a match for Tongming. The Great Strength Vajrapani Formula of the Buddhist sects was an ultimate martial art form passed down from ancient times. It was one of the 36 powers of Buddhist sects. It was said that there were two parts to it. The second part was cultivated by ordinary warriors who had not become immortals, while the first part was for warriors in the Primordial Soul realm and above.
It was said that, when the two parts were put together, the result was just as powerful as an ordinary path of martial arts.
Tongming had already cultivated most of the second part of the Great Strength Vajrapani Formula to the peak. There were not many warriors below the Primordial Soul ream who could match him in body refinement. In fact, there were many warriors even in the Primordial Soul ream who were no match for him if they were not focused on body refinement.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“If Monk Tongming could hurt Mo Wen, that would be for the best,” said a warrior from the Sinister Wind Sect beside Hu Shuo.
His eyes glinted with viciousness. Mo Wen could not be left alive, or he would bring great trouble to the Sinister Wind Sect. However, they all could see how powerful he was. It would be almost impossible for them to kill Mo Wen, given their abilities. Whether they could defeat him or not was an issue for them.
It would be in their best interest if that monk Tongming were to hurt Mo Wen. Anyway, this battle would not decide what happened in the competition. The Golden Buddha Sect was going to withdraw. Mo Wen would definitely enter the finals. The Sinister Wind Sect did not dare to claim that they could deal with Mo Wen. However, they were confident that they would be able to defeat the women of the Goddess Cult.
As such, they would definitely go against Mo Wen in the finals. The most perfect ending would be if they could get rid of this thorn in their side at that time.
“Benefactor Mo, be careful.”
In the arena, Tongming’s body glowed with golden light. He took a step forward, and the ground shook slightly. An immensely strong power hurtled towards Mo Wen through the earth.
An earthquake arose almost in an instant. Mo Wen stood in the quake’s epicenter and bore the brunt of it.
Mo Wen continued to stand there with his hands behind his back. If this were a competition in any other area, he might not be so calm. However, he was very confident in this match that was simply a battle of body refinement techniques.
His body had been refined by the pure vital Qi of the primeval space for 10 years, and he had cultivated the Celestial body at the same time. Even he did not know how strong his body was right now.
The terrifying shaking crashed into Mo Wen. Even though Tongming had only taken one step forward, it was evident that he had already struck.
However, Mo Wen stood his ground without moving. It seemed as if he did not feel anything.
“Hmm?”
A hint of shock flashed through Tongming’s eyes. Just now, he had not taken a casual step forward. It was a mystical method of generating power in the Great Strength Vajrapani Formula which could gather all one’s power and send it straight into the body of the opponent. If one’s opponent was in the third martial arts realm, he would immediately explode and die. Tongming had seen that Mo Wen’s body refinement technique was extraordinary, which was why he had dared to do this.
However, Mo Wen did not react at all...
Monk Tongming, who had been pleased with seeing someone who was as good as him, grew even more excited. Just now, Mo Wen had not done anything at all. He had definitely endured the attack just by using his physical body. In other words, Mo Wen’s body refinement technique was even stronger than Monk Tongming had thought.action
