The Iron Hand Yama recovered very quickly. With the help of Medicinal Pills and Xiao Chen's personal treatment, his complexion soon turned red.
The scars on his body healed automatically, and the scabs fell off.
The physical body of a peak Major Primal Core cultivator was already rather strong, even stronger than Xiao Chen's physical body, which had been cleansed by the Life Juice Source.
This was because his body would undergo a transformation every time he advanced to the next level.
Of course, if Xiao Chen reached peak Major Primal Core Realm, the strength of his physical body would definitely surpass the current Iron Hand Yama's.
On the deck, the Iron Hand Yama slowly woke up. When he saw his surroundings, he looked at the people around him.
He slowly rose to his feet. He did not express his thanks, and there was no joy on his face either.
"Do you have wine?"
When Xiao Suo heard this, he frowned. "Although your cultivation is high, your injuries are only slightly better. It is not easy for you to drink."
The Iron Hand Yama grinned and said, "This old man's body is fine. Do I need a rookie like you to talk so much? You saved this old man's life, so you can criticize me?"
Xiao Suo was speechless when he heard this, and his expression was slightly awkward.
Fei`er could no longer watch on. She pulled a long face and said, "How can you be like this? Boss Xiao Suo, at any rate, risked danger to save your life. You didn't even say a word of thanks. Now that he's concerned about you, you're actually taunting him instead. "
The Iron Hand Yama turned his head. Although he was injured, his aura was still there. His eyes widened slightly, which made him look exceptionally scary.
However, Fei 'er's body did not move even half a step back. She looked straight at the other party.
The Iron Hand Yama grinned and said, "Little Fatso, get this straight. I did not want this rookie to save me in the first place. If I don't give him a slap, I'll be doing him a favor. You want me to thank him? Ridiculous. "
Fei-er's expression darkened. Her little face, which had some baby fat, was so angry that it turned completely red. "You said I'm fat, you …"
Before Fei`er went berserk, Luo Nan quickly held back Fei`er. They needed to remain calm at this moment.
After all, the other party was a peak Major Primal Core cultivator with a ferocious reputation. Now that he had recovered some of his strength, it was best not to offend him.
"Hahaha!" The Iron Hand Yama could not stop laughing. "The people on this ship are all weirdos. He didn't know which small place this couple came from, but they were so unsophisticated. There were also the novice pirates who had just arrived at the Grave Sea. They were very foolish, as stupid as cows. Oh, there's even an elder from the School of Imperial Beasts. You're from a reputable sect after all … "
Elder Tang's face darkened. With a cold harrumph, he waved his hand and turned to leave.
The Iron Hand Yama did not care. He glanced around and fixed his gaze on Xiao Chen. Then, he continued scolding, "There is also this white-clad brat who came out of nowhere. To think that he is the captain. To think that he managed to escape from the Divine Shield Army's encirclement with this broken ship intact. "
The Iron Hand Yama laughed loudly when he heard the comments of the crowd. His good intentions were truly unrewarded. Instead, he was looked down on by the crowd, a venomous snake pointing its finger at him.
Xiu!
Xiao Chen casually tossed out a wine bottle, which shot out like a bolt of lightning.
The Iron Hand Yama reacted quickly, catching the bottle firmly. Then, he removed the cap and started gulping it down, finally stopping the Iron Hand Yama's mouth.
"Good wine! Good wine! I could not tell that you are such a simpleton. Unexpectedly, you have some good stuff."
However, Xiao Chen had already turned around. He said indifferently, "Everyone, return to your posts. Our destination is the blessed land. Let's continue our journey."
The people on the deck glared at the Iron Hand Yama, feeling aggrieved. Then, they left one after another.
As the Iron Hand Yama drank wine and enjoyed the wind, he ignored the gazes of others.
However, no one noticed that there was no sign of life in his eyes. As he looked at the sea, they were empty.
The following days were calm and peaceful.
With his cultivation of the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique hindered, Xiao Chen switched to the Thousand Army Sword Technique. This Sword Technique possessed extraordinary might and vast might. In terms of offensive power, it was even stronger than his Flawless Saber Technique.
After all, Xiao Chen had created the Flawless Saber Technique when his cultivation had not been high. Now that he looked back, he still needed to supplement some of the moves.
Compared to the extremely profound Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique, the Thousand Army Sword Technique was very broad. Xiao Chen's comprehension ability was very high. He quickly comprehended it and infused it into his own Saber Technique.
After all, the saber and the sword were somewhat different. Xiao Chen combined his own advantages and focused on the word 'break'.
He condensed the Thousand Army Breaking Saber Technique into four major killing moves: Breaking Mountains and Rivers, Breaking the Stars, and Breaking the World.
Among them, Breaking the World was based on the dark-gold-armored Venerate's extremely mighty One Sword Subduing Rivers and Mountains.
After half a month of comprehending it, Xiao Chen's Thousand Army Breaking Saber Technique became increasingly colorful.
When Xiao Chen brandished the saber, a saber light howled. When he unleashed his Great Dao Energy, the saber light howled. It was like hot-bloodedness filled his chest as he reared his head back and roared.
Break! Break! Break! Break! Thousand Army Breaking! Mountains and Rivers Breaking! Stars Breaking! Breaking the World!
After executing the entire Thousand Army Breaking Saber Technique, Xiao Chen, who was on the deck, felt carefree. His blood surged, and his entire body felt comfortable.
The bottleneck of the Primal Core Realm also loosened significantly.
"Good Saber Technique. I have seen many geniuses in my life. However, I have never seen a demonic genius like you. In your hands, the Divine Shield Army's famous Thousand Army Sword Technique became yours in less than half a month. "
For the past half a month, aside from Xiao Chen, only the Iron Hand Yama remained on the deck, minding his own business and drinking.
When Xiao Chen heard that, he smiled faintly. This was the first time the Iron Hand Yama said something normal.
In the past few days, Xiao Chen had received a lot of "criticism" from the Iron Hand Yama. It was like a housefly buzzing around, not pleasant to hear.
"Damn it! If only that despicable general were here. When he saw this Saber Technique, he would definitely be angered to death. Hahahaha!"
Xiao Chen had just been praising the Iron Hand Yama in his heart when he suddenly said such a thing.
Xiao Chen's lips twitched. He said embarrassedly, "It would be best if he did not appear."
Xiao Chen was not tired of living. If the Iron Hand Yama were here, everyone would die.
"That's true. Given that old fellow's character, even if he was really angry, it would not be written on his face." The Iron Hand Yama's lips curled up, feeling bored.
Xiao Chen could not help asking, "What was the result of that huge battle that day?"
The Iron Hand Yama drank a large mouthful of wine and replied weakly, "What else could it have been? That is the Divine Shield Army's style. No matter how great the losses are, they want to wipe out the pirate group. We could not charge out at all. The severely injured Boss did his best to help open an opening … "
When Xiao Chen heard that, he felt it was strange. "He dared to get distracted while fighting the Iron Hand Yama?"
"Indeed. Hence, although we managed to charge out, Boss's whereabouts were unknown. We did not know if he was dead or alive. After that, it was a complete mess. None of the severely injured managed to escape. We fought it out with them … "
As the Iron Hand Yama spoke, tears welled up in his eyes. Then, he slammed his wine glass on the floor. "However, do you know that only I f * cking survived?! All of them died. I am the only one left alive! "
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. He did not know what to do.
He could imagine the Savage Blood Star Venerate getting severely injured due to being distracted in such a miserable situation. It was probably not a good ending.
All the severely injured people did not care about their lives, charging at the Divine Shield Army with the resolve to die.
Every one of them died a miserable death in battle or died under the swords of the golden-armored cultivators, getting their heads chopped off.
Ten thousand arrows pierced their hearts, dying with remaining grievances, or dying together with others.
Or being blasted to death by the cannons. Hot-Bloodedness rushed to their heads as rage spread throughout their bodies in the surging seawater.
The Savage Blood Pirate Group fought to the last man. The Iron Hand Yama personally saw every one of them die.
Everyone died; only he survived …
In this world, there was an even greater pain than death. It was the loneliness that came from death. Those who died were fortunate. Those who survived were the ones who suffered the most.
The Iron Hand Yama leaned against the ship's railing and held his head, lowering it in pain.
For a moment, Xiao Chen did not know what to say.
When Xiao Suo said that the Iron Hand Yama refused to help, Xiao Chen had already guessed it. However, he had not expected it to be so tragic.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen thought of a phrase from the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique: The world of mortals is bitter. Birth, old age, sickness, and death. Resentment and hatred.
Resentment, hatred, desire, and not being able to obtain these were not appropriate for the Iron Hand Yama.
But in reality, wasn't he the same?
There were many things in the world of mortals and all kinds of suffering. It was better to break the precepts and break the peace. I will use the mortal world as a furnace to forge my Buddhist heart.
"Breaking the precepts, breaking the peace …"
Xiao Chen muttered to himself as if he had comprehended something. However, bitterness spread in his heart. At this moment, he was not willing to comprehend a Saber Technique.
Shaking his head, Zhang Xuan turned around and left. Xiao Chen saw Xiao Suo standing at the entrance, looking in his direction.
"What are you doing here?"
Xiao Suo said embarrassedly, "I'm afraid that he won't be able to get over it. Actually, I really don't blame him. I'll go over and let him scold me a few times. Perhaps he will be fine after that. "
"Go on, then."
After Xiao Chen left, he paced back and forth, thinking about Xiao Suo's words. Suddenly, he understood something.
All kinds of suffering exist. However, in this world of mortals, there will always be people who understand and care for you.
Breaking the precepts and ignoring the rules of the mortal world would not bring peace but a moment of joy. One would definitely fall into the Demonic Dao.
Xiao Chen understood now. It did not matter whether he broke the precepts or not. Since the Buddhist heart existed, he was Buddha!
