In that instant, Huikong understood many things.
The Green Parasol Tree Sword, seemingly a deadly move, pierced the abbot's ribs, but was blocked by the golden body; it was all a decoy.
The real killing move was the invisible and intangible Yin Lightning that Chen Shuangbai had long ago hidden on the Green Parasol Tree Sword.
Huikong is at the Seventh Layer of Qi Refining, which is one level higher than Chen Shuangbai.
However, he is neither Foundation Establishment cultivator nor a Body Cultivator.
His Vajra King Buddha Golden Body is a result of hard skill, cultivated on the outside, not within the internal organs.
Yin Lightning is most effective at erosion.
Once it enters your body, even if you are at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, you will still be in deep trouble.
Let alone someone at the Seventh Layer of Qi Refining.
With Huikong's death, Compassionate Light Temple lost its leader.
Without any hesitation, Huiming suddenly unleashed a dazzling Buddhist light, transforming into a golden thread that disappeared deeper into the mountains and forests.
Thunder Method is inherently powerful.
Now that his right hand is crippled and he has lost most of his fighting strength, he is no match for Chen Shuangbai, not to mention that his reliance on him has died in a very tragic manner right in front of him.
If we don't run away now, when will we?
But no matter how fast he is... he can't outrun Feiguang.
Feiguang transformed into a white lightning bolt, shooting down from the clouds. Its claws, capable of crushing ore, directly knocked Huiming out of his golden state.
"You beast, you deserve a beating!"
Huiming was both anxious and afraid.
With his remaining left hand, he ruthlessly struck at Feiguang, from which a string of Buddhist beads emerged, seemingly intent on killing Feiguang on the spot.
In five months, Feiguang advanced from the Third Layer of Qi Refinement Qi Refinement Fourth Layer.
Although he was still not as skilled as Huiming, who was at the Sixth Layer of Qi Refining, Feiguang was best at using his extraordinary speed to fight his target. Therefore, he did not kill his target with one strike and immediately fled.
How could Huiming possibly hit it?
But as he was delayed, two sharp, piercing sounds came from behind him.
Huiming glanced back and saw two flying swords, one above and one below, slashing at him in a crisscrossing pattern.
Huiming naturally did not want to get into a prolonged fight.
As if he had made up his mind, he opened his mouth and spat out a golden pill, which exploded with a bang. Then, taking advantage of the spreading smoke and dust, he once again attempted to escape from the sky.
But as he tried to escape, he ran right into Chen Shuangbai was already waiting above.
Chen Shuangbai, who had been holding the prepared Midnight Month Cold Light Yin Thunder in his hand, thrust it downwards as if it were a divine intervention.
Huiming were bloodshot.
The distance was too close; he simply couldn't avoid it.
All he could do was roar, " Chen Shuangbai, behind my Compassionate Light Temple stands the Great Buddha Temple! Have you thought this through?!"
He raised his purple-gold kasaya, and rays of Buddhist light flashed, seemingly possessing the power of Vajra, which combined to form a golden barrier.
Chen Shuangbai stared at him coldly, showing no reaction to his words.
The Midnight Month Cold Light Yin Thunder in his hand flashed and fell, colliding with the Huiming, and a series of sharp, ear-piercing explosions rang out.
Frost filled the sky, crackling with silvery lightning, swallowing a living body and spitting out dozens of frozen chunks of flesh, which fell into the mountains and fields, disappearing into the lush greenery.
Without Chen Shuangbai's command, Feiguang, accompanied by a fierce wind, landed in the mountains and fields.
With its sharp eyesight, it hooked all the Spirit Stone stones on Huiming's body with its claws and handed them to Chen Shuangbai.
Chen Shuangbai patted Feiguang's big head, praised him as a good partner, then took Huiming's cassock and Storage Bag, and smiled as she looked at the faintly visible ice blocks in the mountains.
" The Great Buddha Temple... hehe..."
He then rode Flowing Cloud Flying Pouch back to Compassionate Light Temple.
An uproar erupted Compassionate Light Temple.
Abbot Huikong, who was considered by many believers to be an incarnation of the Buddha and a highly respected Huikong, was brutally beaten to death on the spot by a practitioner, which greatly shocked and terrified them.
Even more extreme, some claimed that a powerful demon had appeared in the world.
Fortunately.
Bi Sheng brought more than a dozen mortal masters with innate abilities. Although they couldn't deal with cultivators, they could handle these ordinary people.
After a few shoves, those who were making a fuss all quieted down.
Even so.
Bi Sheng still failed to completely retain the monks of Compassionate Light Temple.
Besides the two accomplished disciples, Huikong and Huiming, Compassionate Light Temple also has three or four monks at the Qi Refining Stage.
Seeing that things were not going well, they scattered in all directions.
Although Bi Sheng wanted to stop him, he was unable to do so and could only stop the nearest monk who was at the Second Layer of Qi Refining.
After a few exchanges, Bi Sheng ruthlessly killed him.
The remaining three... disappeared into the wild mountains behind No Return Peak.
When Chen Shuangbai returned, he learned that three remnants of Compassionate Light Temple who Early Qi Refining had escaped into the mountains. He then had a thought and sent the Feiguang above the clouds to pursue them.
Feiguang has excellent eyesight; no matter what movement there is in the mountains, no blade of grass or tree can escape its hunting.
They're just a few Early Qi Refining cultivators; it's only a matter of time before Feiguang finds and kills them.
" Feiguang will handle those remaining culprits. You have someone seal off the area around the mountain, and quickly tear up the temple, searching it thoroughly to find the assassin and any evidence of Compassionate Light Temple's crimes."
"Yes, Uncle-Master!"
Bi Sheng looked at Chen Shuangbai with some excitement in his voice.
The scenes from just now were still flashing through his mind.
He previously thought that Chen Shuangbai was only good at controlling flying swords and aspired to become a sword cultivator.
But at this moment, it was discovered that Chen Shuangbai was not only a sword cultivator, but also skilled in lightning techniques that ordinary cultivators could not learn. In a few swift moves, he killed the Huiming and Huikong brothers, who were at the seventh and sixth levels of Qi Refining.
Such ruthless decisiveness!
Such swift and decisive action!
Such a free and unrestrained spirit... this is the kind of character we cultivators should have!
Seeing the undisguised admiration and excitement in Bi Sheng's eyes, Chen Shuangbai simply nodded and said nothing more.
He surveyed the ravaged square, the panicked monks and believers, his gaze calm and unwavering.
"Go and do it."
Chen Shuangbai's voice was not loud, but it clearly reached Bi Sheng's ears, causing the Qi Refinement Fourth Layer cultivator to immediately calm down and solemnly agree. He then turned around and led his subordinates to uncover the secrets of Compassionate Light Temple.
Those ordinary believers and pilgrims who were still inside the temple were sent to the flat ground in front of the temple and placed under supervision.
Not long after.
The county government officials rushed to the scene upon hearing the news.
Chang Yuan Changyuan had long disliked Compassionate Light Temple, but he could only turn a blind eye because of the temple's cultivation background and his own mortal status.
These temples, seemingly detached from worldly affairs, are actually engaged in usury, illegally occupying land, hoarding grain, and doing nothing productive—truly a malignant tumor.
Therefore, when Chang Yuan learned that Chen Shuangbai had killed the abbot and the disciplinary elder of Compassionate Light Temple with swift and decisive action, he was so excited that he jumped up and said that he had finally met a father figure.
Looking at the charismatic, tall, and imposing figure standing before the main hall, he felt an overwhelming surge of admiration and gratitude.
