"It's you! You are … Almsgiver Ming? "
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Jinghua's mind.
The face of the young man on the throne was becoming more and more familiar to her.
But the young man's face was completely different from the Evil Emperor Ming Tonghui in her memory.
Where had she seen him before?
Wait …
Jinghua was even more shocked at this moment.
She suddenly realized that there was another profound mystery on his body. It was as if a layer of dense fog had been created to confuse her knowledge.
Even though she gradually recognized him, she still didn't know why. She intuitively felt that her memory and perception were being disturbed.
This kind of method was usually used by demons, Taoists, or Buddhists to affect the mind.
However, the Evil Emperor should be a martial artist.
No, Li Shulou judged that there was an unimaginably powerful formation in Chang 'an that covered the Yanhuang World. It was clearly a Taoist method.
Chang 'an had expanded over the years, and the various legendary phenomena in the legends also sounded like a Taoist method.
Could it be that the reincarnation of the Evil Emperor had cultivated Taoism in addition to martial arts and reached an extremely high level?
Was it because he had a fragment of the Immortals?
Jinghua's mind was in a mess.
She forced herself to stop paying attention to Zhang Dongyun. She gathered her mind and guarded her mind, calming her chaotic mind.
Zhang Dongyun sat on his seat and quietly looked at the nun who had calmed down.
Jinghua glanced at the jade Ruyi and Master Zhiyuan. At this critical moment, her mind was even calmer.
Seeing that Master Zhiyuan had already passed away, she sighed and said, "It seems that benefactor already knew about us as soon as we came in. After all, this place was managed by benefactor like an iron bucket. It was unwise of us to hold on to any hope."
Zhang Dongyun said indifferently, "The three poisons of greed, anger, and stupidity are still there. So what if you joined the Buddhists?"
"I'm ashamed that my cultivation is not good enough. I planted the seeds of the past and now I have the consequences."
Jing Hua clasped her palms together. "Right after I separated from Martial Uncle Zhiyuan, you killed him and took the Ruyi Scepter, right?"
Zhang Dongyun smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
It was just as Jing Hua had said. He had known the moment the other party entered.
Because of the core of the Immortals and Invincible City, his control over the ruins of the Immortals was beyond ordinary people's expectations.
However, the Outland Void where the Ruins of the Immortals were located was still somewhat different from the Invincible City.
As such, as soon as Zhang Dongyun arrived, he cut off the enemy's path of retreat. He killed Master Zhi Yuan and took the jade scepter, sealing off the path to the Benevolent Boar Pure Land.
After that, he returned to the illusory palace and waited silently for Jing Hua to come to him.
As soon as the two sides met, Jinghua realized that the situation was not good and hurriedly retreated. However, it was already too late.
Zhang Dongyun didn't give chase and stayed in the palace without moving.
Jing Hua had nowhere to run. In the end, she had to come back here to settle things.
As for the effect on Jing Hua's spirit, it was partly because Master Zhang had been cultivating in Invincible City day and night. His spirit was constantly nourished by the spiritual energy in Invincible City. His strength and agility far exceeded that of ordinary martial artists.
On the other hand, it was because his martial arts attainments had surpassed that of the Evil Emperor.
Not long ago, around the time Fu Yuting found Feng Qi, Zhang Dongyun successfully broke through from the 12th realm to the 13th realm.
The 13th realm of martial arts was also known as the fourth realm of the Martial Emperor Realm. It was called the Expansion of Six Harmonies.
At this realm, not only did the martial artist's physical body become stronger, but he also had a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the void.
For Zhang Dongyun, the increase in his strength was even more exaggerated than other people's when he advanced to the next realm.
Although he was still one realm lower than the Evil Emperor of the past, his actual combat strength was much higher than the former Evil Emperor.
He sat still and displayed the mysteries of the Celestial Emperor's Finger, the Wind Emperor's Body, the Lake Emperor's Body-Refining Technique, and the Water Emperor's Palm at the same time and merged them into one.
His physical body's Qi and blood were extremely powerful and mysterious. In turn, it began to affect his spiritual world.
When he was at the 12th realm, Zhang Dongyun had merged the various techniques and could only merge three techniques into one. However, he could already fight head-on and kill the 13th realm Mountain-Moving Demonic Ape and Thunderclap Dragon.
Now that he had reached the 13th realm, his physical body's foundation had improved greatly and he could merge more than three techniques together.
The merging of the four techniques of "Sky," "Wind," "Lake," and "Water" into one was not only the peak of "Martial Arts," but also the merging of Dharma and Martial Arts.
Buddhist cultivation originally focused on the mind, and Jing Hua was the peak strength of a Buddhist Dharmakaya. However, facing Zhang Dongyun's merging of Dharma and Martial Arts, her mind was still affected.
It was only because of her high cultivation that she was able to regain her senses in time.
Previously, Master Zhiyuan's mind had been directly suppressed by Zhang Dongyun, and his head had been smashed into smithereens.
However, even though Jinghua was vigilant, she still felt as if the entire hall had been enveloped and occupied by Zhang Dongyun, causing her to have no way to escape.
"Buddha is merciful."
Jing Hua put her palms together and chanted, "Benefactor Ming, please enlighten me."
In a desperate situation where it was almost impossible for there to be any reinforcements, Jing Hua's mind was unprecedentedly calm.
She revealed her Dharmakaya, and endless light spread out in all directions to resist the immense pressure from Zhang Dongyun.
Her Dharmakaya took the form of a Bodhisattva with five faces and ten arms.
On the five faces, joy, anger, sorrow, joy, and worry respectively appeared.
His ten arms formed hand seals together.
They showed the Dharmakaya Seal, the Wish Seal, the Earth Touch Seal, the Fearless Seal, and the Dhyana Seal.
Thus, on her Dharmakaya's Pure Land, the Vajra, the Sweet Dew, the Fire of Wrath, the Bodhi, and the Pure Land appeared together.
When the various Dharmakaya combined, it was like forming a Buddhist country. It seemed small, but there was a universe hidden inside. It was like holding Mount Sumeru in a mustard seed.
Zhang Dongyun sized her up and nodded slightly, "So you've cut off your Peacock Body."
As he casually commented, he had already raised his hand.
He stretched out his right palm and opened his five fingers at the same time.
As he opened his five fingers, Jing Hua's mind suddenly went into a trance.
She seemed to see the power concept of the Celestial Emperor's Finger.
However, it was sword intent at this moment.
The Celestial Thearch Sword.
Under the sword, the universe was split and all living things bowed down.
The index finger was like a sword, while the thumb was like a hammer.
The Earth Emperor Hammer was majestic and unshakable. It made one's heart palpitate.
The middle finger was as violent as fire and was extremely fierce. It was as if the heavenly fire of the stars had exploded, and a huge spear pierced out from it.
Jing Hua recognized the fist intent of the Yan Emperor Fist. However, just like how the Celestial Thearch Finger had turned into the Celestial Thearch Sword, the Yan Emperor Fist seemed to have turned into the Yan Emperor Spear.
At this moment, the exquisite and profound Martial Dao concept was in Zhang Dongyun's hands, and it changed freely.
His ring finger and little finger also flicked out together.
The former was as fierce as thunder and as domineering as a knife.
The latter was as swift as the wind and as sharp as a halberd.
Zhang Dongyun just stretched out his palm and opened his five fingers. It was as if the five great divine weapons had been launched together, splitting the heavens and splitting the earth.
In his hands, the five great ultimate techniques recorded in the Evil Emperor Sutra were not so much a move. It was more like … playing.
It was as if the universe was under his control and he could play with it at will.
The power of his attacks could destroy the heavens and the earth. It was extremely terrifying.
However, when he used it, it was as if he was taking a stroll in the park.
However, his ease was unbearable for Jing Hua.
The pure land was shattered by the Earth Emperor Hammer.
The Diamond was split by the Thunder Emperor Saber.
The Bodhi was knocked down by the Wind Emperor Halberd.
The dew was evaporated by the Flame Emperor Spear.
The Fire of Wrath was extinguished by the Celestial Thearch Sword.
In the blink of an eye, Jing Hua's five great Dharma Powers were completely destroyed by Zhang Dongyun.
She took a deep breath and her mind reached an unprecedented state of emptiness.
Her body became one with her Dharma body.
A faint glow appeared on the surface of the Bodhisattva Dharma body and it gradually condensed into a solid body.
On its five faces, joy, anger, sorrow, joy, and worry disappeared and all became calm and peaceful.
The ten arms stretched out together and pushed towards Zhang Dongyun.
The Diamond, Bodhi, Dew, Fire of Wrath, and Pure Land Dharma Powers reappeared and combined with the Bodhisattva Dharma Powers.
Even the boundless Buddhist light that was expanding in the surroundings all returned to the Bodhisattva Dharma body at this moment and condensed into a layer of crystal clear Buddhist light on the surface of the Dharma body.
At this moment, Jing Hua also showed the power of Dharma and Martial Dao as one. She combined the Dharma Powers of the Buddhist Sect and the Dharma Powers of the physical body, reaching a new height that she had never reached before.
However, Jing Hua's heart did not calm down. Instead, it tightened!
This was because in her vision, Zhang Dongyun calmly made a move.
His stretched out palm and opened fingers closed towards the center of his palm.
His palm clenched into a fist.
