Chapter 828

Both hands, however, swelled out of thin air, thrusting forward continuously, and with a single expansive palm technique, he directly engaged Xiao Jingtian in combat.

At the same time, that palm condensed from the world's primeval force in the void descended even more rapidly.

Xiao Jingtian seemed to have fallen into a state of being attacked from both front and rear!

"Big Brother…"

Xiao Aoshi and Xiao Jingtian had been brothers for several thousand years; their bond was truly deep.

Seeing Xiao Jingtian seemingly in danger at this moment, he immediately prepared to activate the Myriad Dao Forest Array to aid his elder brother.

"Hold on, hold on, Aoshi. Your family's Jingtian's Wu Gong is extraordinary, and he has also learned the complete version of the Hun Tian Si Jue from the Scripture Pavilion.

His overall strength was already at a critical threshold.

If he were to cultivate bitterly, who knows how long it would take to break through.

Now this Extraterritorial Evil Buddha, descending by borrowing this Barbarian Lord's body, is truly the best whetstone for Jingtian.

The moment you make a move, you'll ruin Jingtian's opportunity instead!"

Wu Wudi, with a faint smile on his face, explained this to Xiao Aoshi.

Among the Four Guest Ministers, Wu Wudi's strength was undoubtedly the highest.

Previously, at Tianshan in Yunzhou, he had fought that violent-eyed Jingtian.

In his view, the master of that violent eye was far above this Huang Tian Evil Buddha!

He also saw that the Huang Tian Evil Buddha was precisely the best whetstone for Xiao Jingtian.

Therefore, he spoke up to stop Xiao Aoshi.

When in You Dongying, Xiao Aoshi had been honored as the Big Boss, his status second only to the Great Demon God Xiao Jingtian.

After joining the Ruqinglong Society, he discovered that there was always a heaven above the heavens, and a man above the men!

Although he did not know Wu Wudi's true strength, he had gone on several missions with Di Shitian.

He saw Di Shitian, with a mere raise of his hand, could freeze ten thousand miles with profound ice.

He then knew that his previous Myriad Dao Forest Array would absolutely not be a match for Di Shitian.

Yet such a Di Shitian had been defeated by Wu Wudi at the age of forty.

Therefore, the Xiao brothers knew well that this Wu Wudi should not be judged by his young appearance.

It could well be that, in terms of strength, whether their own father could match him was unknown!

Therefore, although they were all Four Guest Ministers, Wu Wudi was also modest and courteous.

But in truth, whether the Xiao brothers or Di Shitian, all held Wu Wudi in great admiration.

Wu Wudi said Xiao Jingtian was not in danger, but rather had an opportunity.

The Huang Tian Evil Buddha possessing Tie Muzhen was, conversely, Xiao Jingtian's whetstone.

Hearing this, Xiao Aoshi immediately smiled, and thanked Wu Wudi,

"Thank you, Brother Wu, for the guidance."

In the martial path there is no order of precedence; the one who attains it is honored.

Although Wu Wudi was the youngest among the Four Guest Ministers, the others all addressed him as elder brother.

On the other side, the battle between the Huang Tian Evil Buddha and Xiao Jingtian also officially entered its white-hot stage.

Xiao Jingtian used the Hun Tian Si Jue to manifest four additional arms, totaling six arms.

These six arms unleashed the Wu Gong he had cultivated his entire life.

It looked as though he had merely performed a few more fist and palm techniques.

In reality, it was one person setting up a combined assault formation that would normally require at least three people to execute.

Ordinary combined assault formations still required the formation participants to train and live together for a long time, so that their minds would be in sync, in order to bring out the formation's maximum power.

The Qinglong Society's Twenty-Four Solar Terms were also cultivated according to this very principle.

It was only later that the Heavenly Dao bestowed the Mind-Synchronization Pill, multiplying the formation's power of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms several times over.

Xiao Jingtian's case was entirely different.

He did not form a formation with others, but rather used multiple Wu Gong by himself.

One person forming a formation!

No need for mind synchronization; wherever there is a gap, it is immediately filled.

Wherever the enemy shows an opening, several arms attack together.

Six arms, advancing and retreating in concert, shielding one another.

It could be said that although Xiao Jingtian's cultivation had not made any major progress at this moment,

relying on his six arms, his strength had instead risen several steps.

If a martial artist of the Nine Provinces encountered him, such as Old Fahai of the Jin Shan Temple from before,

it was likely that without employing that secret technique, he could no longer face Xiao Jingtian head-on.

But what Xiao Jingtian faced now was no ordinary person from the Nine Provinces.

It was the Huang Tian Evil Buddha from beyond the realms!

Martial artists of the Nine Provinces, before the Grandmaster Realm, refined their own essence and energy to form internal force.

After reaching the Grandmaster Realm, internal force began to transform toward true Qi.

Once they reached the Absolute level, true Qi gradually condensed and transformed into true essence.

Step by step, each progression of one's own strength was a metamorphosis.

From a lower level, metamorphosing toward a higher one.

The reason the Grandmaster Realm could mostly suppress those below it was precisely because true Qi was of a higher level than internal force.

The Absolute level and the Great Grandmaster, Grandmaster levels were a great watershed, also because true essence was already close to nature, and could begin to draw upon a trace of the world's primeval force.

But the Huang Tian Evil Buddha originated from beyond the realm.

The energy he controlled was vastly different from that of martial artists of the Nine Provinces.

With every attack, that energy surged from his palm.

Each time it made Xiao Jingtian's whole body tremble, and afterward he actually felt as though a portion of his true essence had been dissolved away.

After several successive strikes, Xiao Jingtian finally confirmed it.

Only then did he understand that this Huang Tian Evil Buddha could not be faced head-on.

He immediately executed a feint, not letting his palm meet the Huang Tian Evil Buddha's, and only kept striking at the golden radiance.

Luring the Huang Tian Evil Buddha to attack, he would immediately switch to another direction.

Judging by the level of raw power, this Huang Tian Evil Buddha was a notch higher.

But judging by Wu Gong and combat technique, it was Xiao Jingtian who was the more formidable.

After all, Xiao Jingtian was a martial artist by training; over several thousand years, he had fought who knew how many people.

How could his rich combat experience be something the Huang Tian Evil Buddha could compare to?

Seeing this, the Huang Tian Evil Buddha was so angry his teeth itched.

In the lands beyond the realm, he truly did not excel at martial combat.

Fortunately, the great hand seal he had summoned had already condensed to its utmost.

Gradually it descended from high above the void, already drawing near the battle circle.

The Huang Tian Evil Buddha immediately moved both hands together, forming a hand seal in midair.

The next instant, a Buddhist seal shot out from between his palms, attacking toward Xiao Jingtian.

Even though Xiao Jingtian kept dodging, this Buddhist seal kept pursuing him.

Adding to that, the great hand seal had now arrived in the attack, and caught between the two, Xiao Jingtian was completely surrounded.

Xiao Jingtian shouted repeatedly, but to no avail.

Gradually he was so hemmed in by the Buddhist seal and hand seal that his figure could no longer be seen.

"Hahaha! An ant trying to shake a great tree — what a laughable overreach!"

The Huang Tian Evil Buddha, thinking he had already taken Xiao Jingtian, immediately burst into wild laughter.

Sweeping a glance toward the Qinglong Society's side,

"Who else?"

"The Buddha's divine might covers the world; you petty rabble, Yin Susu retreat!"

Lotus Incarnation Living Buddha was overjoyed at this moment too — this Huang Tian Great Buddha he had invited at great cost was truly not bad at all!
