Just then, a deep voice suddenly came from the void, "Since you're here, come into Shaolin Temple!"
The sudden sound startled everyone present. The sound came slowly from a distance and reached everyone's ears.
A faint echo, like the chanting of sacred music, resounded in their ears, making them dizzy and terrified.
Commander Lu said gravely, "Is this Abbot Xuan Nan? Such strength is probably only something that His Majesty could defeat!"
Princess Minmin snapped out of her daze and said solemnly, "Let's go inside!"
After saying that, Princess Minmin led everyone into the Shaolin Temple. They arrived at an open space where the people of the Shaolin Temple had been waiting for them for a long time!
Abbot Xuan Nan slowly said, "I wonder if the Southern Emperor's promise still stands?"
Princess Minmin calmly replied, "Of course it counts! But do you people have any chance of winning? My Emperor is hiding in the shadows!"
Abbot Xuan Nan smiled slightly upon hearing this, "If the Southern Emperor were here, he would have already made his move. Why would he need to hide?"
Princess Minmin's face darkened upon hearing this, knowing that she could not deceive Abbot Xuan Nan any longer. She then chuckled and said, "How about this, since you, Abbot, and my Emperor cannot fight, let's settle the score with our men?"
Upon hearing this, Abbot Xuan Nan gave Princess Minmin a deep look and said, "Alright! I grant your request!"
The Shaolin Temple members were overjoyed upon hearing this, as they still had a chance to win as long as the Southern Emperor didn't make a move.
Those in the Imperial Court's camp frowned deeply, and Commander Lu said gravely, "Your Princess! Although I have confidence in our people, this arrangement will inevitably introduce some unforeseen circumstances!"
Princess Minmin chuckled and said, "Don't worry! I know what I'm doing! Just go ahead and make your move!"
Commander Lu nodded upon hearing this and said to the people behind him, "All those above the Grandmaster level, make your move!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the Brocade-Clad Guard -level eunuchs from various sects and the Imperial Court guards stepped forward, their faces filled with murderous intent as they stared at the Shaolin Temple people opposite them.
The Shaolin Temple faction did the same, with the four chief monks taking the lead and suddenly attacking the Imperial Court masters.
The Hall Master of Subduing Dragon made the first move, unleashing his full inner energy and using the first move of the [Bodhidharma Divine Sword], "Buddha's Light's Light Shines Everywhere." Streams of golden Buddhist light condensed between his fingers, and with a sudden step, he leaped into the air, striking out a golden Buddhist sword seal with his two fingers together.
With a fierce and demon-slaying power, his arm was like an indestructible golden sword. Wherever the sword passed, the air exploded and twisted, flashing with golden lightning. He suddenly attacked the people of the Imperial Court with extremely fierce and domineering power!
The Hall Master of Subduing Dragon's attack startled all the grandmasters in the Imperial Court. Upon seeing this, Yuhuatian's face turned solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Hall Master of Subduing Dragon! I will take your move!"
After saying that, Yuhuatian drew his sword and unleashed his true energy, using the first move of the Plum Blossom Swordplay, "Plum Blossoms in Full Bloom." Streams of Yin Softness and domineering true energy condensed in the sword. With a light slash, Yuhuatian unleashed a Yin Softness white sword aura.
The sword energy transformed into a plum blossom-like shape and slowly drifted away. This plum blossom, though seemingly beautiful, actually contained a terrifying killing intent. Then, the plum blossom slowly collided with the indestructible golden sword, and suddenly a fierce sword energy erupted.
"Bang"!
A violent explosion rang out, and Yuhuatian's plum blossom sword energy, which concealed murderous intent, was forcibly shattered by the indestructible golden sword of the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon. It turned into a sky full of fallen petals and slowly disappeared into the air. The remaining golden sword energy once again attacked him with extremely fierce power!
Upon seeing this, Yuhuatian's eyes narrowed, and he directly blocked the fierce golden sword energy with his sword, forcibly deflecting it and creating a bottomless hole. The power was extremely fierce!
Seeing this, the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon remained calm and continued to attack. He leaped into the air and suddenly unleashed another indestructible golden sword, which struck Yuhuatian once more. Wherever it passed, golden lightning flashed and ripples spread through the void. Its power was extremely terrifying!
Upon seeing this, Yuhuatian was immediately startled. He unleashed his true energy and used the second move of the Plum Blossom Swordplay." Streams of Yin Softness and domineering true energy condensed in his sword, and he suddenly unleashed a fierce rain of swords. Suddenly, a plum blossom appeared in the sky.
Like a hundred flowers blooming in spring, the scene was so beautiful that it made people relax their killing intent. The plum blossoms slowly approached the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon, looking completely harmless.
The Hall Master of Subduing Dragon was momentarily confused, then suddenly awoke with a start. He then swung his arm, unleashing countless indestructible golden swords that shattered the plum blossoms that filled the sky, turning them into bursts of true energy that dissipated into the air.
Then, he suddenly pointed a finger at Yuhuatian, and an indestructible golden sword suddenly shot towards him. The sword energy pierced through Yuhuatian's body without any hindrance. There was no blood spurting out as expected, and only a figure slowly disappeared into the air.
Upon seeing this, the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon was immediately alarmed. "Damn it! This is an afterimage he left behind! We've fallen for his trap!"
At this moment, Yuhuatian suddenly flashed behind the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon, his true energy erupting as he unleashed the third move of the Plum Blossom Swordplay, "Winter's Lone Red." Streams of Yin Softness and domineering true energy violently condensed in his sword, unleashing a fierce and domineering strike. His entire body transformed into an extremely fast afterimage.
Wherever it passed, ripples spread through the void. Its speed was astonishing, and snow and frost fell around it. In an instant, it had already reached the back of the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon. Its power was extremely fierce and domineering!
Upon seeing this, the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon immediately took action, unleashing his full inner energy and using the second move of the [Bodhidharma Divine Sword], "Golden Summit Buddha Sword." Streams of golden Buddhist light condensed within his body, and a dignified and majestic phantom of a Buddha appeared behind him.
With both hands extended, a sword finger suddenly shot backward, followed by the Buddha behind him, unleashing an indestructible golden lightning sword finger that struck the void behind them. Ripples spread across the void as it passed, and golden lightning flashed around them.
"Bang"!!
A violent explosion rang out as the golden lightning sword finger unleashed by the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon collided directly with Yuhuatian's fierce and powerful sword strike, unleashing a surge of thunderous sword energy that rippled outwards.
Wherever it passed, lightning and sword energy crisscrossed, causing ripples in the surrounding void. The energy was filled with bursts of lightning and sword energy, which collided with each other, producing a series of explosive sounds. Its power was extremely astonishing!
A bead of cold sweat slowly trickled down the forehead of the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon, who thought to himself, "That was close! This guy's attack isn't that great, but his speed is astonishing!"
Yuhuatian stepped aside, looking at the Hall Master of Subduing Dragon with a solemn expression, and thought to himself, "Alas! It's still a failure. It's too difficult to kill such a master by surprise!"
