Chapter 66: The Buddhist Lion’s Roar
The subordinate who had spotted me and my master was an ordinary person. How could there be any room for ‘idlers’ in this battlefield that had become chaotic in the blink of an eye? My master and I were obviously acting in a way that was illogical, and it was ‘shocking’ to be discovered.
After receiving the order to shoot, the subordinate immediately raised his gun and aimed at us.
At this time, it doesn’t matter if you immediately lie down, suddenly use Taoist roar, or even run… In short, in the chaos, even if you don’t have any preparations, there are still many ways to escape.
However, no matter if it was the subordinate or me and the master, no matter how fast we were, we couldn’t escape the whirlwind of chaos that the poor Qi’s remnant soul had summoned. The whirlwind seemed to be conscious, and it only swept towards the subordinates of Yang Sheng’s forces.
When those subordinates of Yang Sheng were wrapped in the whirlwind, they immediately became temporarily paralyzed. Those in the town seemed to have anticipated such a reaction, and some took the opportunity to grab the guns from the subordinates’ hands… and shot without thinking.
They’re crazy, they must all be crazy… Are the people in this town also going crazy and starting to kill? At that moment, with the sound of gunshots, my master and I turned and ran towards a slightly remote alley. The first thought in my mind was this.
The second thought was, is this the true power of the legendary beast? The pressure of the aura was so strong that it caused Yang Sheng’s subordinates to be temporarily stunned. Don’t think this is strange. It’s like an ordinary person suddenly encountering a hungry wolf in the mountains. Right, even if it’s just a hungry wolf, people will subconsciously be stunned before they react.
The reason is that the hungry wolf, because of hunger, only has the idea of attacking, and the animal’s thinking is simple, and the reaction of fear is not as sensitive as that of humans, so a relatively sharp aura is formed.
The fear of humans is instinctive, and their aura is weak.
Once this form is formed, there will be a typical oppression.
The ferocious beast Qiongqi, to be honest, I don’t understand it. Its remnant soul appeared, and I just accepted it numbly. However, the cold and murderous aura on its body, the indescribable mysterious and ancient aura, and the confidence of the strong, it is too simple to form an absolute aura.
Coupled with the powerful soul power and aura, it is not surprising that so many of Yang Sheng’s subordinates are oppressed.
The sound of the wind was in my ears, but against the background of the gunfire, it sounded like the sound of a knife being swung through the air… A layer of blood seemed to appear before my eyes, and I felt inexplicable sadness in my heart. I had experienced so many things, but I had never experienced such a naked mass killing.
So is the so-called great era that Master mentioned filled with such killings? Men who have never been to war and men who have experienced naked fighting are still lacking a layer of toughness, I think I am.
“If you can’t accept it, try to stop Yang Sheng! If you can’t, the whole of China, no, the whole world will face greater madness.” My master and I ran to the side of a building and stopped to catch our breath.
This is only a place where we can catch our breath for a while, but it doesn’t mean that we’re out of danger. We’re surrounded by cars from Yang Sheng’s forces, and there are only two exits from this town: one is the road in and out of town, and the other is the exit to the mountain.
“Stop Yang Sheng?” I lowered my head, and the sweat on my nose dripped to the ground. This was not caused by the running just now, but by the pressure in my heart. People absolutely have to believe in one thing, and that is that even a group fight with only ten people is 10 times more exciting than a fight between two masters.
As for stopping Yang Sheng, I used a question mark because I simply didn’t believe I could stop him. Yang Sheng gradually revealed his ‘minions’. The deeper I realized, the more I felt that it was as difficult as moving a mountain. Why did my master keep telling me to stop Yang Sheng? Was he trying to put the final burden on me?
However, the time to catch my breath was so short that I had not even had time to explain to my master what had happened when I heard a deafening roar from Yazi, followed by a roar from Qiongqi, and then a series of collisions that shook the ground and made the whole town tremble.
Jiazi has struck!
“The true Buddhist lion roar, passed down by the true martial monks of the Buddhist sect (not just ordinary monks, but monks who are also fighters, like Master Hui Gen and Master Hui Ye, who are based on their status as cultivators). The master stood up straight and looked serious.
In the secular world, the Buddhist roar is the most outstanding, and the Taoist roar is not famous because the Buddhist roar is too strong.
But ordinary people think that lion’s roar is a martial art. In fact, it is not a martial art at all. After all, martial arts in the broad sense of the word are, first, a way to build up the body, and second, a way to use the body to strike with strength and skill to attack the enemy!
But what about lion’s roar? Even in movies, it is a technique that makes people dizzy and mentally suppressed after a roar. It can be considered a mental attack, so how can it be considered a martial art?
This is only the superficial lion roar, which requires the internal strength that has almost been lost and concentrated mental power.
The true Buddhist lion roar is extremely strictly taught. I occasionally heard Master Hui mention it when I was young. He said that he had only received a superficial teaching, because the true Buddhist lion roar is extremely demanding of spiritual power. To put it plainly, it is an attack technique that concentrates spiritual power and spreads it out in a roar… If the spiritual power is not strong enough, the soul will be injured before the roar is even released.
I don’t know the specific principles, but I at least understand that the true Buddhist lion’s roar is a technique that directly harms the soul! Perhaps it is also because it hurts the heavens and earth, and it is also one of the reasons why the Buddhist teachings are extremely strict.
The master said that Jiazhi used the authentic Buddhist lion’s roar? I couldn’t believe it. That crazy Jiazhi was actually a Buddhist? However, I couldn’t think about it. I felt a dizzy feeling deep in my soul… Jiazhi wasn’t targeting me, but even the aftereffects could cause such harm to a powerful soul like mine.
No wonder he is the Holy King. With just this one move, he is worthy of the title.
I didn’t see the scene of the energy collision… but I was already shocked to see the billowing smoke and dust rising from the main street of the nearby town… Recently, I have often thought about the relationship between metaphysics and science, and I have often wondered if the power of nothingness can affect the real world?
I think it can, just like the soul, which is not physical. Specifically, it may be a manifestation of a magnetic field or a wave band similar to an electromagnetic wave. Usually, we can’t see or touch it… But why can’t it affect the real world when it is powerful enough?
Just like the electromagnetic storms generated by the sun, they can have a huge impact on the real world. When they are strong enough, the consequences are unimaginable…
Therefore, even science has determined that electromagnetic energy is a form of energy.
The reason I think so much is because the past is vivid in my mind, the coldness of the ghost’s appearance, the strong wind, and the shock caused by the collision of the soul… all of these have passed through my mind once. I have just never seen such a collision scene before, just like a real small equivalent bomb explosion. Because of the smoke and dust, a building next to it collapsed.
Is this the power of the Holy King? This was the first time I had seen the Holy King use his full power like this… This was just one of the Holy Kings, and Yang Sheng had… I didn’t dare to imagine it, I couldn’t describe the bitter taste in my mouth, like after smoking a lot of cigarettes, the taste that came from licking the corner of my mouth.
Jiazi is very strong… so strong that when I first heard Qiongqi’s roar, it wasn’t the bark of a wild dog, but a low growl that matched its status as one of the four ancient beasts. I don’t know the outcome of their clash, but I just stood behind this house and saw those suppressed subordinates of Yang Sheng start to move again.
The people in the town, those who had grabbed the guns were still shooting wildly, and those who didn’t had drawn their knives…
When will the fighting end? Can my master and I really stay out of it? Reality soon gave my master and I a cruel slap in the face. I heard an unusually loud, excited, almost roaring voice shouting, “Holy King, I have made a major discovery. I… I saw… Jiang Lichun and Chen Chengyi!”
This voice was not far from me and my master, because just now, my master and I ran into this alley from that direction, and in the seemingly noisy, but actually only the sound of fighting and shouting battlefield, this voice was also exceptionally clear.
My master and I froze at the same time. I suddenly remembered that the moment the subordinate who discovered us raised his gun, the eyes under the mask seemed to have a kind of doubt… At that moment, Qiongqi’s energy storm swept through the town, and he also fell into a daze.
Then… Jiazhi and Qiongqi fought… and then the subordinates recovered… it was only a matter of seconds, and everything came together in my mind.
What should I do? The only thing that echoed in my mind was these three words!
