Chapter 1041: Is this what you call

Facing Long Xiang's shock, this Buddhist sect inner disciple gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain in his crotch.

"Hmph, a despicable villain like you could never understand the principles of our Buddhist sect. What I just did is called 'purity of the six senses'."

Huh???

Hearing this, Long Xiang was even more bewildered. You've got to be kidding me—you call *this* purity of the six senses?

But just glancing at the blood gushing from the disciple's crotch, it seemed, perhaps, that there was actually a shred of logic to it.

"But... are you sure you can still fight like this?"

He asked with a slight frown; at that rate of blood loss, even a Dharma Aspect Realm expert wouldn't be able to hold on.

To this, the Buddhist inner disciple replied with a face full of disdain.

"Heh, a mere minor injury is nothing worth mentioning. I only need one of our Buddhist sect's sacred healing pills, and I will immediately be..."

As he spoke, the disciple intended to retrieve a pill, but he suddenly froze. *Damn it, my spatial ring is gone; all my pills were inside. *

He had forgotten about it in the heat of the moment, as he had never encountered such a situation before.

Now that he was in this state, what was he supposed to do without pills to heal?

Watching his strange expression, Long Xiang also felt conflicted. The two locked eyes in silence for a long time, until the Buddhist disciple finally gritted his teeth and said:

"Give me back my spatial ring."

"Are you sick?"

"Then give me a pill to stop the bleeding."

"You really are sick."

We're enemies, for heaven's sake! You want me to give you a pill to stop your bleeding?

Seeing this, the Buddhist disciple's expression grew increasingly complex; the blood just wouldn't stop flowing.

Many other Buddhist disciples were in the same situation.

Their states of mind had all been shattered by the Dao One Sect disciples. *Grab, grab, grab—all they know how to do is grab! *

*You like grabbing, right? Fine, I'll give it to you—let you grab to your heart's content. *

With a painful sacrifice, cutting off their own crotches, one Buddhist disciple after another became a person of "purity of the six senses."

As for the Dao One Sect disciples, they were left dumbfounded. *That is truly ruthless—it looks painful just watching. *

Never mind the disciples; even Ye Changqing, standing atop the city wall, felt his scalp tingle.

Are you saying you just don't want a man's root anymore?

But on second thought, it seemed these Buddhist disciples didn't use them in their daily lives anyway. Leaving them there was just for show; losing them didn't matter. Unlike their Dao One Sect, where they cherished such things dearly.

Ruthless as it was, after the Buddhist disciples performed their self-mutilation, they realized they had no pills left.

In an instant, they all wore bitter, melon-like expressions again.

Moreover, while they could say they had solved the problem at the root, the current situation was that they were severely injured and had no strength left to contend with the Dao One Sect.

High in the sky, the Buddhist Saints watched their disciples retreating steadily.

They had seen the scene just now, and though they were filled with unwillingness, they had to grit their teeth and shout:

"Retreat."

It was still such a mess—bleeding profusely from the crotch while trying to fend off the Dao One Sect's attacks.

Even if the Dragon Claw Hand was useless now, the Dao One Sect disciples had other methods.

Besides, even if they fought normally, given the current state of the Buddhist disciples, they wouldn't be a match.

Therefore, despite their extreme reluctance, the Buddhist Saints issued the order to retreat.

In an instant, the numerous Buddhist disciples on the battlefield below fled toward the Boundary Sea.

The Dao One Sect disciples pursued them all the way.

"We won just like that?"

Atop the city wall, watching the Buddhist disciples retreating across the board, Ye Changqing felt as if he were in a dream.

They had won? To be honest, after the battle, Ye Changqing had only one feeling: shock.

*How the hell can a battle be fought like this? It's absurd to the extreme. *

The Dao One Sect disciples only stopped their pursuit at the edge of the Boundary Sea under the orders of Fairy Baihua and the others.

The Buddhist disciples, clutching their crotches, rushed toward the place where their starship fleet was docked.

Blood flowed continuously into the Boundary Sea, attracting many fish and shrimp.

But for some reason, why did the blood have such a pungent, urine-like smell?

The battle at Nanjing City was also a great victory. Returning to the city and seeing Fairy Baihua's clothes stained with blood, Ye Changqing asked with concern:

"Are you alright?"

"Don't worry, Husband, it's just some minor injuries."

Fairy Baihua's injuries were not serious and not life-threatening; she would recover in two days, especially with the help of pills.

Next was cleaning up the battlefield and reporting the situation back to the sect.

Within the Dao One Sect, Qi Xiong, who had been waiting for the results of the five battlefields, received reports from Venerable Hong, Fairy Baihua, and the others one after another.

Starting from Leiyun City, he learned that all five battlefields had been won. Except for the Dongzhou Ferry, which had only barely managed to hold off the Buddhist sect's offensive, the other four battlefields were complete victories.

However, Su Luoxing being able to hold the Dongzhou Ferry and repel the Buddhist sect already met Qi Xiong's expectations.

Not to mention, the Dao One Sect had won completely in the other four battlefields. After this first battle, the Dao One Sect could be said to have won big.

Even Qi Xiong, upon receiving the results, found it hard to believe at first.

"How the hell was this battle fought?"

The Buddhist sect came with such aggressive momentum, yet they returned defeated on all four battlefields. It was absurd; even if they were to win, it shouldn't have been this easy.

Why did it feel like the Buddhist sect was just a bunch of weaklings?

Qi Xiong wasn't there, so naturally, he didn't know how "dirty" the Dao One Sect disciples were.

Furthermore, the Buddhist sect had never experienced such a scene, or rather, they had never seen such dirty people.

That was why they were defeated so directly.

They were stunned from the very beginning; under such circumstances, winning would have been a fantasy.

Cloud-Exploring Hand, Star-Following Finger, Dragon Claw Hand, Yang-Locking Technique, Golden Snake Entangling Hand—this set of moves basically left the Buddhist disciples bewildered.

After that, wanting to contend with the Dao One Sect disciples was basically impossible.

That was why this battle seemed so simple.

However, Qi Xiong did not let his guard down because of the great victory in the first battle; the Buddhist sect would certainly not let it go.

This crushing defeat in the first battle might even drive the Buddhist sect to become even more frantic, launching even fiercer attacks next.

Therefore, it was not the time to relax. Qi Xiong's reply to Venerable Hong, Fairy Baihua, and the others was:

Do not let your guard down, carefully monitor every move of the Buddhist sect, and seek opportunities for battle on your own.

If confident, you may make decisions and take the initiative to attack, but you must ensure the safety of Leiyun City, Dongzhou Ferry, Nanjing City, Boyun Strait, and Wujun Island; they must absolutely not fall into the hands of the Buddhist sect.

Having done all this, Qi Xiong finally let out a rare sigh of relief, and his mood improved significantly.

Regardless, a great victory in the first battle was indeed something to be happy about; this battle undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to the Buddhist sect's morale.

At the same time, the major forces in Dongzhou also received the results of the first battle one after another. As for such results, the major sects had different thoughts, but shock was universal.
