Chapter 672
Therefore, not only did he not continue studying Buddhist teachings and walk the path of Fomen,
he instead went deeper into researching Wu Gong, hoping to achieve great success with his divine skill, so that all the monks of Yunzhou Shaolin, including the Monk Emperor, would look at him with new eyes.
In the end, if he could force them to give up the Monk Emperor's throne, that would be best!
His talent for learning martial arts was truly extraordinary.
Any martial art under heaven, he mastered at first study, and perfected it at first grasp.
In just twenty short years, he had already reached the supreme Mythical Realm.
That day, he even sensed the Nine Emptiness Boundless Realm and was able to enter it.
Legend has it that the Nine Emptiness Boundless Realm is the gathering place of all martial arts above the Nine Provinces.
Any martial art created in the world will correspondingly appear within the Nine Emptiness Boundless Realm.
Whether Wu Hui fully observed all the martial arts of the world within it, no one knows.
But it is only known that when he returned from the Nine Emptiness Boundless Realm, he had an additional divine weapon in hand — Calamity King.
Although this Calamity King came from the Nine Emptiness Boundless Realm, it was extremely Xie Sect.
Wu Hui, who had originally still belonged to Fomen, after obtaining Calamity King and returning, became cruel and bloodthirsty.
After killing ten thousand people in the martial world, he earned the title of Blood Ancestor.
He then even declared that on the night of the full moon, he would storm Yunzhou Shaolin.
He would kill all the Shaolin monks, including the Monk Emperor, to sacrifice to Calamity King!
At the critical moment, no one knew where the Monk Emperor had invited Yun Dingtian, who bore the reputation of a reincarnated Guan Yu, from.
Yun Dingtian, wielding the divine weapon Bixie, fought the madly rampaging Wu Hui Blood Ancestor atop Songshan for seven days and seven nights.
In the end, Wu Hui Blood Ancestor's whereabouts became unknown, and the divine weapon Calamity King fell into Yun Dingtian's hands.
Carrying Calamity King, Yun Dingtian returned to Yunzhou Shaolin to report to the Monk Emperor.
The Monk Emperor was overjoyed, and told Yun Dingtian to leave Calamity King behind and he could return home.
He also said that although this divine weapon had slaughtered countless beings, it was ultimately the will of heaven.
Its baleful aura ran too deep, and it had killed countless people; only by keeping it in Shaolin and dissolving it with Buddhist teachings could it be resolved.
Yun Dingtian obeyed the Monk Emperor's wishes, left Calamity King behind, and then returned home.
Only to discover that his entire family, and even his whole village, had died a strange and tragic death.
After inquiring at nearby villages, he learned that his village, including his own family, had died from a sudden plague.
Yun Dingtian's heart was seized by inexplicable grief, and he recalled the Monk Emperor's reputation for divine calculation.
So he got the idea of wanting to find the Monk Emperor to ask whether he had foreseen this strange plague.
And whether there was any way to save his own relatives.
Right in front of Yun Dingtian, the Monk Emperor coldly said that all of this was the will of heaven.
For the world, for Fomen, for the Monk Emperor, Yun Dingtian had not hesitated to fight Wu Hui Blood Ancestor for seven days and seven nights before finally defeating him.
Yet his own family had died tragically, and the Monk Emperor clearly knew, yet said nothing.
He even pushed it off onto the vague and elusive will of heaven!
Yun Dingtian was furious beyond measure, and immediately disregarded everything, wanting to attack the Monk Emperor.
The Monk Emperor actually took out Calamity King and fought Yun Dingtian for a while.
In the end, when the two divine weapons clashed this time, Calamity King actually snapped directly in two.
Then the inexplicable power on Calamity King's blade seeped into Bixie.
Then the Great Evil King, renowned throughout the world and one that people dared not mention, descended upon the world.
After wielding the Great Evil King, Yun Dingtian seemed to fall into the demonic path, becoming cruel and bloodthirsty.
The Shaolin monks were slaughtered by him, the greater part of them.
Even the Seven Elders of the Heart Zen Hall all died protecting the Monk Emperor.
In the end, the reclusive expert Wu Wuer was invited out by the Monk Emperor, wielding the Heaven's Mandate Blade, and engaged in a fierce battle with Yun Dingtian.
The two fought from Yunzhou Songshan all the way to the shores of the Eastern Sea.
That battle struck until the sun and moon lost their light, and Shanhe lost its color.
Countless powerful experts throughout the world witnessed this vicious battle.
After fighting for ten days and ten nights, Wu Wuer, on the verge of defeat, comprehended the ultimate blade technique — Wrath of the Vaulted Heaven!
This move was the supreme blade technique that united heaven, man, and blade as one.
With one strike, heaven and earth changed color because of it.
It actually stirred the Thunder of Heavenly Punishment, which together with Wu Wuer's blade technique, desperately struck toward Yun Dingtian who wielded the Great Evil King.
Struck fiercely by the Thunder of Heavenly Punishment, Yun Dingtian finally suffered heavy injuries.
But he did not wish to die at another's hands, so he actually wielded the Great Evil King, turned it, and stabbed himself to death.
Before his final moments, he even uttered that blood curse!
He cursed that although his flesh would die, it would also transform into a vengeful ghost, and for all eternity, he would surely annihilate Fomen entirely.
He also placed a curse upon Wu Wuer!
At this point, that secret tale from back then could be considered completely revealed.
However, there are still many unsolved mysteries within it.
For example, why the Monk Emperor insisted on acting this way, forcing Yun Dingtian into rebellion, and deceiving the descendants of the Wu family.
And where Wu Hui Blood Ancestor went.
Having heard Seeing Di Shitian's story, Wu Wudi fell into deep thought.
Could it be that he himself, and even the Monk Emperor whom the Wu family had always revered, was actually such a many-faced person?
Could it be that all these years, cultivating a successor for the Great Evil King had been the wrong approach?
Wouldn't it be better to submit to Ximen Wudi a step earlier?
"Then how do we break the Blood Curse?"
Wu Wudi was heavy-hearted at this moment; he had never imagined that the Monk Sovereign, who had won the deep trust of countless Wu Lin figures in Yunzhou,
was actually a man of many faces!
He couldn't figure out what the Monk Sovereign's purpose in doing this was.
Only he didn't want to think it through either—the Wu family's Blood Curse had to be broken by himself.
Otherwise, his son Xiao Wu, with his outstanding talent, would have to follow in his footsteps.
"The first method is indeed to defeat Shi Dingtian!"
Only now did Senior Dugu Jian reveal the method—and there was more than one method at that,
"It's just that this Shi Dingtian, according to what that Monk Sovereign said, is possessing the Great Evil King.
So he hoodwinked your Wu family into cultivating someone who could comprehend the Evil King's Ten Tribulations.
But in truth, the true origins of these Evil King's Ten Tribulations far exceed anything any of us could imagine.
And Shi Dingtian is not even on the Evil King's Ten Tribulations at all."
Wu Wudi sighed deeply—the Monk Sovereign's scheming was truly profound!
His old Wu family had truly been sold out by him and still counted the money for him!
"Then where is Shi Dingtian?"
Forget it, no need to think so much—better to focus on how to break the Blood Curse first!
"With your current strength, this path won't work."
Senior Dugu Jian glanced at Wu Wudi, hesitated for a long time, recalled the way Ximen Wudi had looked when saying these words, and couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh.
Ximen Wudi knew Wu Wudi had been unrivaled his whole life, able to defeat even Di Shitian.
He seemed easygoing, but was in truth proud and arrogant, which was why he single-mindedly focused on breaking the Blood Curse that even Wu Wuer couldn't undo.
Unfortunately, he was still confined by how small this world was, unaware of the principle that beyond the heavens there are greater heavens, and beyond people there are greater people.
"Impossible… besides the Great Dragon Head, is there anyone I cannot defeat?"
Wu Wudi shook his head, his face full of disbelief.
He bit down hard on that word "person."
Clearly he also knew that what he could defeat were people, not other things.
For instance, that Violent Eye—he asked himself whether he could defeat it.
If Shi Dingtian is not a person, then perhaps, maybe, probably, he can't be defeated either!
