Upon hearing these words, Abbot Jingxuan was horrified, for he had never noticed that there was another person besides them in the main hall of the Buddhist Sect temple!
In fact, they didn't even notice the sound immediately when it appeared!
This means that his opponent is much stronger than him.
Abbot Jingxuan stopped trying to kill Ning Chenxin, but a crimson Buddhist light had already filled the arm that was pressing against Ning Chenxin's back.
If he wanted to, he could kill Ning Chenxin in less than a breath!
"Why don't you come out and meet us? If you want to save this young benefactor, why don't you come out and discuss the terms?"
Ning Chenxin is now a hostage; after all, the other party is stronger than him, so he still needs to keep a backup plan.
At this moment, the space behind Ning Chenxin began to distort.
Immediately, a man in white stepped out. He looked at Abbot Jingxuan and said, "So, this kid has been taken hostage?"
Abbot Jingxuan smiled slightly and said, "That's right, so you should not act rashly, otherwise I might accidentally make a mistake."
Lu Changsheng laughed and said, "Then kill him."
His face showed an indifferent attitude.
After all, if you go along with the other party's threats, things won't end well; you have to put on a show at least a little.
Abbot Jingxuan was also slightly taken aback, "Didn't you come here to save him?"
Lu Changsheng shrugged and said, "Yes, but I wouldn't have time to save you in this situation, and besides, I don't want to be threatened by you, you old geezer."
That old geezer...
Abbot Jingxuan's brow twitched.
However, with his body as frail as rotten wood, he could indeed be called an old codger.
Abbot Jingxuan took a deep breath and said, "Alright, since that's the case..."
At this point, Abbot Jingxuan's hand began to surge with Blood Qi aura and Buddhist light!
In the blink of an eye, Ning Chenxin coughed up a mouthful of blood!
Lu Changsheng cried out anxiously, "No, no, no, old bald man... wait, grandpa, why aren't you playing by the rules?"
Abbot Jingxuan stopped, frowned, and looked at Lu Changsheng, saying, "Didn't you disregard this young benefactor's life?"
Lu Changsheng said, "No, buddy, I was just joking."
"So, should I state my conditions?"
"Go ahead and mention it." Lu Changsheng nodded affirmatively.
Abbot Jingxuan then smiled, but just as he was about to say something...
A spurt of blood gushed from Abbot Jingxuan's elbow!
Abbot Jingxuan was stunned. He slightly raised his arm, and the hand that was pressing on Ning Chenxin was cut in two!
With a fierce expression, Abbot Jingxuan let out a soft shout and suddenly slammed his other hand towards Ning Chenxin!
But.
In the blink of an eye, with a gentle breeze, Ning Chenxin's figure vanished from the spot.
A crimson Buddhist light struck the floor of the main hall.
Rumble rumble rumble!!!
The floor was smashed.
The entire Buddhist Sect territory trembled!
Several of the surrounding Buddha Mountain have begun to crumble.
Even the highest peak was enveloped by a pillar of crimson Buddhist light descending from the sky, its immense power covering the entire world!
If it weren't for the protection of the Buddha's light, this entire mountain would probably have been destroyed.
When the crimson Buddhist light disappeared, Abbot Jingxuan stared at Lu Changsheng with an ugly expression. Beside Lu Changsheng, Ning Chenxin barely managed to stand up.
"You cheated?"
Lu Changsheng said innocently, "Huh? I didn't, it's just that I can't accept your conditions."
Actually, it was just to be on the safe side, to distract Abbot Jingxuan a little before taking action to save Ning Chenxin. For someone who has reached this level, killing someone is already very easy; it's something that can be done with just a flick of the finger.
For example, if the opponent's speed is already 0.0001 seconds, how much faster could you be, even if your speed were 0.000001 seconds?
It's better to play it safe.
Abbot Jingxuan: "..."
I haven't even stated my conditions yet!
He didn't even utter the first word!
Abbot Jingxuan took a deep breath. This was the first time he had ever seen someone so powerful act so shamelessly, treating him like a monkey...
"Alright, now that my disciple is saved, how about this, it's my turn to make your demands."
The roles have been reversed.
Abbot Jingxuan was slightly taken aback. "You're giving me conditions?"
"That's right." Lu Changsheng nodded, his tone serious. "After all, you don't have any leverage over me right now, but I do have leverage over you."
"For example?"
"For example, I could wipe out your entire Buddhist Sect; it's not the first time I've done this."
Abbot Jingxuan's face darkened slightly, and he said, "This old monk would like to hear what your conditions are."
Although his strength is not as great as Lu Changsheng's.
But even with the entire foundation of the Buddhist Sect, he was confident that no one could shake Buddhist Sect!
After thinking for a moment, Lu Changsheng shut his mouth again, and his aura began to surge wildly. Nine swords appeared behind Lu Changsheng.
God-Slaying Sword Array!
This Abbot Jingxuan completely bewildered once again.
Didn't you say you were going to set conditions?
Why are they about to fight again without warning?
Lu Changsheng scratched his head sheepishly and said, "I'm afraid you'll do what I just did, so I'll just wipe you all out."
Abbot Jingxuan, enraged, laughed coldly. He then clasped his hands together and roared, "Abbots, Buddhist Sect, and pilgrims, gather your Power of Faith in the Buddha!"
The sound resounded throughout the entire Buddhist Sect territory!
Without a moment's hesitation, all the pilgrims, abbots, and monks knelt and bowed in the direction of the main hall!
Golden rays surged toward the Eighteen Arhats and the golden Buddha behind Abbot Jingxuan!
This moment.
The Eighteen Arhats seemed to come alive, leaping down from the high platform and surrounding Lu Changsheng!
At the same time, the eyes of the golden Buddha also regained their luster, and it lowered its head to look at Lu Changsheng.
An overwhelming Power of Faith gathered in the main hall of the Buddhist Sect temple!
The enormous commotion spread throughout the entire Buddhist Sect... but was intercepted by Lu Changsheng's formation, which was originally intended to reach the outside world.
Abbot Jingxuan himself was also enveloped in a surge of crimson Buddhist light that flowed toward the golden Buddha, and his face turned pale in an instant.
Looking at Lu Changsheng, he said, word by word, "The foundation of the Buddhist Sect is not something you can easily shake!"
He held nothing back, unleashing the strongest trump card of the Buddhist Sect.
When facing a powerful figure like Lu Changsheng, he felt he had no chance whatsoever.
Even more deadly were those nine swords...
As soon as one senses the Sword Dao Origin power, one feels as if they have been pierced by ten thousand arrows and died!
This was unlike any other swordsman he had ever seen... they were all much stronger!
Seeing this, Lu Changsheng scratched his head helplessly and said, "In my previous life, Buddhist Sect were usually portrayed as villains in novels. How come they're villains here too?"
"Forget it, the premise that Buddhist Sect is the villain is already set in stone..."
