Mortal Bones

"Recite... Recite scriptures?!"

Listening to the chanting sound coming from the ring, there was another round of surprised voices from the audience, and everyone, including Jun Shuyan, was confused.

"Brother Du, this Brother Song, could it be that he is also a Buddhist disciple?"

Jun Shuyan asked Gongshu Nanxing beside him tentatively.

"This... I really have never heard him talk about it."

Gongshu Nanxing smiled bitterly.

Even though she had been with Xu Taiping for a long time in Xuanhuang Tower, she was also full of surprise at Xu Taiping's behavior of reciting scriptures on the stage at this moment.

However, unlike Jun Shuyan and the others, Gongshu Nanxing firmly believed that Xu Taiping's behavior at this moment must have a deep meaning.

Even if Xu Taiping really cultivated Buddhist magical powers, she would not be surprised at all.

"Dang!..."

Just as she was thinking this, a loud and melodious bell sound suddenly spread from the clouds above the ring.

Immediately afterwards, Gongshu Nanxing and Jun Shuyan, who was standing beside him, watched in astonishment as a golden beam of light fell from the crack in the cloud layer, landing on Xu Taiping, who was reciting scriptures with his hands clasped together.

"To obtain Buddhist power from scriptures... isn't it... isn't it said that only those monks who have been comprehending Buddhism for hundreds of years can do it?"

Jun Shuyan, who originally only suspected that Xu Taiping was a Buddhist disciple, was stunned when he saw that Xu Taiping actually used the means that only Buddhist monks could use.

"Sure enough, the young master has many secrets that we don't know."

Nanxing, who was standing beside him, was surprised and relieved.

However, compared to the surprised expressions on the faces of the people below the ring, the face of the hall master Wuhuan standing on the ring was ashen.

He never thought that Xu Taiping would use this trick he asked him to accumulate Buddhist power.

However, seeing that more and more Buddhist power was integrated into Xu Taiping's body, and the fluctuations of Xu Taiping's aura were getting more and more violent, Wu Huan gradually couldn't keep calm.

"Crack, crack, crack..."

The ice crystals under his feet became thicker and thicker, and continued to spread to the half of the arena where Xu Taiping was, and the aura around him became colder and colder.

Many practitioners who were watching behind Wu Huan avoided him because they couldn't resist the cold air.

In the blink of an eye, the area behind Wu Huan was empty.

However, Xu Taiping seemed to have not seen it at all, and he was still there with his hands clasped together, reciting scriptures.

"I admit that I miscalculated and shouldn't have given you the opportunity to recite the scriptures, but just because I let you make the first move doesn't mean that I can only stand there motionless."

After staring at Xu Taiping for a moment, Wu Huan suddenly raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and his face regained his previous confident and calm expression.

"Boom!..."

Immediately, Wu Huan's aura surged, and the cold true energy around him suddenly turned into wind and snow and spread out.

At the same time, his flying sword also flew up from the ground with a "clang" sound, hovering above his head, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at Xu Taiping who was chanting on the opposite side.

"No matter how powerful the Buddhist magic is, with your current cultivation, you can't take my dark frost sword energy."

Amid the sharp sound of the flying sword, Wu Huan crossed his arms and looked self-conscious.

As he said this, cold sword energy flew out from his Qi Palace, constantly merging with the flying sword above his head.

"Could it be...could it be...could it be that the Wu Huan Hall Master intends to directly use the dark frost sword energy?!"

After seeing this scene, Jun Shuyan of Tianyuanzhai immediately opened his eyes wide and exclaimed in astonishment.

"Dark frost sword energy?"

Nanxing looked at Jun Shuyan in some confusion.

As a descendant of an aristocratic family who was born and raised in Xuanhuang Tower, Jun Shuyan has much more information about Tianshuang Pavilion than Xu Taiping and Gongshu Nanxing.

"The Dark Frost Sword Qi is the secret of Tianshuang Pavilion. It is said that the ancestor of Tianshuang Pavilion killed a general of Guifang with this Dark Frost Sword Qi, and finally won the recognition of the court and proudly founded the Tianshuang Pavilion with great prestige."

Jun Shuyan stared at the Wuhuan Hall Master on the stage with an extremely nervous expression, and explained to Gongshu Nanxing without turning his head.

"What is so unique about this Dark Frost Sword Qi?"

After hearing what Jun Shuyan said, Gongshu Nanxing also became a little nervous.

For these foreigners, the most dangerous part of Xuanhuang Tower is the word "unknown".

Whenever you encounter a person or thing that you have tried your best to find but still missed in the end, it basically indicates the arrival of danger.

"Brother Du, you don't know that this Dark Frost Sword Qi is not the sword Qi cultivated by ordinary sword cultivators. It is the same as the blazing flame that Brother Song transformed from the fusion of wind and fire. It is a unique sword Qi that is transformed after the fusion of the Dark Frost Qi and the Heavenly Frost Sword Qi of the Heavenly Frost Pavilion."

"This sword Qi has both the armor-breaking power of ordinary sword Qi and the frosty air of Dark Frost Qi that can freeze the soul."

"Under the same cultivation realm, there are very few magic and magic weapons in the world that can resist it. Legend has it that when you reach the highest realm, you can kill gods and Buddhas."

Jun Shuyan explained to Gongshu Nanxing in great detail.

When he said this, his eyes were full of awe in addition to nervousness.

"So, this Dark Frost Sword Qi and your Tianyuanzhai magic are of the same origin?"

Gongshu Nanxing frowned.

"Yes." Jun Shuyan nodded and then smiled bitterly, "But the difficulty of practicing this Frost Sword Qi is more than ten times the difficulty of fusing the Shuofeng Wind and Silver Sand."

"I can see that."

Gongshu Nanxing took a deep breath.

...

"Your disciple is really cautious. He actually wants to use the Dark Frost Sword Qi right from the start."

High above the stands, the reflection of the Demon Lord Tian Xing in the teacup conveyed a message to the old Pavilion Master beside him with a look of appreciation.
