Chapter 254: Chapter 253 Buddhism Gathering_1

The Twin Lotus is related to the formation of the golden core, and no one would give it up. Multiple cultivators at the late stage of Foundation Establishment were fighting a chaotic battle.

The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain knew their limits. They realized they could only use their skills for survival in a dense forest. If they had to confront an enemy head-on, their skills would be inadequate.

Moreover, having witnessed the combat abilities of Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, the Five Heroes doubted that anyone could snatch the lotus away from them.

Whoever can defeat an opponent in a higher realm would brag about it as if it were great feat.

But look at these two monks. They could fight across a superior realm, achieving consecutive victories. Such combat power was only heard in rumors. The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain had never seen such a thing before.

“Could these two be from the Suspension Temple?”

“Can Suspension Temple recruit two people at once?”

“Considering the abilities of these two young heroes, it might be possible.”

Meng Jingzhou was ranked second among his peers. One could also say he was second among all the cultivators of the Five Great Immortal Sects. Naturally, his stunning combat power attracted many cultivators to attack him, including those at the Golden Core Stage.

“Lu Yang, quit standing around watching!” Meng Jingzhou took on his opponents with Arhat Fist while calling on Lu Yang to assist him.

“And here I thought you, the great hero Meng, could single-handedly take on all challengers.” Lu Yang teased as he prepared to join the battle.

Four cultivators at the late stage of Foundation Establishment attacked Lu Yang. Without looking, Lu Yang sidestepped, easily avoiding the attack. He lightly tapped their bellies with his hands. They felt their stomachs churn and began to vomit violently.

Vomiting sound—

“Stop him!” The crowd realized that Lu Yang was a cultivator not inferior to Meng Jingzhou and a major adversary in the battle for the lotus.

“Shatter Mountain Palm!” Another cultivator attacked Lu Yang. His palms were iron-blue, hardened by a thousand hammers and a hundred forgeings. His skin was tough as iron, resisting even the heat of a furnace.

“Drawing a Jail!” Lu Yang extended his index finger and lightly drew a circle on the ground. The man’s body suddenly disappeared into the ground.

It seemed as if an invisible hand had forcefully dragged him down.

This eerie method made everyone shudder. They had no idea how to counter it.

“A disciple of the Dao of Painting?!” someone exclaimed, recognizing Lu Yang’s method. It was just like the artists of the Confucian school who could alter the course of the world with a simple stroke of their brush!

Isn’t this guy a disciple of Buddhism? How does he know Confucian techniques?

Lu Yang simply smirked and didn’t bother to explain. He kept drawing circles. Despite being surrounded and attacked by the crowd, he was as relaxed as if he were alone in the world.

Anyone who neared him was captured and thrown into the jail below ground.

“Taste my blade, Sky Question!” Duan Hongchen secretly took action. The Sky Question blade was gleaming, so bright that others couldn’t open their eyes.

“Arhat Fist!” Lu Yang crouched with his right leg, tense with his left. The power flowed through his body, concentrated in his left fist. Forward he thrust, deflecting the swipe from the Sky Question blade and smashing into Duan Hongchen’s face.

Duan Hongchen felt as if a mountain was crashing into him head-on, the force was so massive and heavy that no tricks could defend against it.

“Life is full of suffering, but salvation lies within reach!”

Lu Yang attacked continuously, hitting Duan Hongchen. Duan Hongchen felt pain all over his body, as if all of his bones had been disjointed.

Duan Hongchen was thrown back, and his vision turned black.

“Huh? What’s this?” The darkness before him wasn’t because he was losing consciousness. Something black was blocking his eyes.

“Hair? Whose?” Without thinking, Duan Hongchen touched his head.

So shiny. Whose head was bald?

“Where’s my hair?!” It suddenly dawned on Duan Hongchen. Where was the hair he had so carefully combed?

What is the most important thing for a master? To put on a deep façade, giving off an air of mystery.

And of course, a crucial element is hair!

Now that his hair was gone, he lost half of his mysterious appeal.

“Be careful, his Arhat Fist can make you lose your hair!” Duan Hongchen loudly warned the others.

An Ke, who originally wanted to ambush from the dark, turned pale upon hearing these words.

If she didn’t get the Twin Lotus, it didn’t matter. She could find other ways to form the golden core. But losing her hair would be a disaster!

Run!

Without a second thought, she turned and ran!

“Trying to escape?” Clearly, Lu Yang was not one to let his enemies go easily. He chased her relentlessly.

“Don’t chase me. I don’t want the Twin Lotus anymore!” An Ke shouted, attempting to show her goodwill.

“Trying to catch me off guard, eh? I’m tired of that trick!” Lu Yang responded, thinking An Ke might play dirty just like he would.

“Stop hurting Fairy An Ke!” Someone, who was captivated by An Ke’s beauty, tried to stop Lu Yang, but was punched out of the way by Lu Yang, leaving his hair scattered on the ground.

“Halt, scoundrel!”

“Stop hurting people!”

One after another, people tried to stop Lu Yang, only to be punched away by his Arhat Fist.

“Can you do a buzz cut?” someone asked Lu Yang in a low voice.

Lu Yang nodded. After practicing the Arhat Fist in the martial arts field for four days, he had reaped great benefits and could now craft hairstyles at will.

“Give me one!”

Nicely, Lu Yang made his move, sending the man flying.

The whole place was in chaos. An Ke was running around the lake with Lu Yang close behind. Anyone who got close to Lu Yang was punched twice and became bald.

Luckily, in the end, An Ke’s protector showed up, dragged An Ke away, and didn’t let Lu Yang hit her.

“Next!” Losing his target, Lu Yang quickly found a new one.

Lu Yang’s Arhat Fist was as powerful as the genuine one, and it made people bald. Even an accomplished monk would have to agree that it was a true Buddhist technique.

Whether they wanted it or not, regardless of their cultivation level, everyone was punched by Lu Yang.

Lu Yang was like a lawnmower, leaving nothing hairy wherever he went.

“First, get rid of this guy!” Everyone was furious and no longer focused on grabbing the Twin Lotus. They all aimed at Lu Yang. No one was even bothering with Meng Jingzhou anymore.

The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain watched this scene by the lake, sweat dripping in fear. They tried their best to minimize their presence, worrying the crowd would take out their anger on them.

Conscience of heaven and earth, they were just guides. They had no connection with Lu Yang.

“Excuse me, what happened here?” A gentle voice suddenly rang out. The Five Heroes of Eagle Mountain were shocked, thinking they were caught.

They looked back and saw a man and a woman. They had no idea when they had arrived.

The man was sturdy, like a member of the Barbarian tribe. The woman was slim, her face a bit young, with her age not seeming to be high.

It was Man Gu and Tao Yaoye.

Not long ago, Eldest Senior Sister had found Man Gu and Tao Yaoye, telling them that Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou had excellent performances during their field training. Therefore, they should also learn from them.

So, they took a flying boat and traveled by carriage, finally reaching the Demon Suppressing Pass after twists and turns.

At the Pass, they heard that the Twin Lotus was about to bloom, so they came to see what was happening and join in the excitement.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived, they saw a group of bald-headed people fighting fiercely in a pit, as if it was a Buddhist gathering.

They learned from a bystander that Lu Yang had displayed some sorcery to shave people’s heads, igniting their anger, and was being besieged.

“Ah, I see. Eldest Senior Sister must have hoped that we would learn from Brother Lu’s courage in bravely facing a group of enemies despite the hardships!” Man Gu had an epiphany.
