Chapter 181 Han Diao Temple's Dark and Twisted Crawling
"realm?"

"hehe!"

Xu Chunlin sneered: "I didn't know when we could use realm to distinguish between strong and weak?"

It was obvious that Xu Chunlin was disdainful of Han Diaosi's statement of using realm to divide combat power.

The finger of Xu Chunlin clearly had the power of the Great Finger Profound Realm, which contained the understanding of the Dao of Yin and Yang annihilation of the Supreme Taoist, and could be said to be able to grind all the Daos into pieces.

However, Han Diaosi, who was also in the Great Finger Profound Realm, had no power to fight back under that finger.

This is the essential difference in power.

It refers to the mysterious realm, which is a metaphor for Taoism. The key to this realm lies in the word "Xuan", that is, the ability to anticipate opportunities, predict the future, and anticipate the enemy.

When masters of the Zhixuan realm fight each other, or even when Zhixuan fights against celestial phenomena, no one can guarantee which side will win.

This is because masters who have reached the Zhixuan realm will comprehend their own unique Zhixuan secret techniques, each of which is different, with one or several, and no one dares to guarantee victory.

The Vajra Realm is derived from the Buddhist concept of Vajra Indestructibility, the Finger Mysterious Realm is derived from the Taoist concept of Immortality through Finger Knocking, and the Celestial Realm is derived from the Confucian concept of the resonance between heaven and earth and even the laws of heaven and earth.

Then there is the land of wonderland, which leads to the same destination through different paths.

The three religions each have their own strengths, which does not mean one can defeat the other. It just depends on the difference in people's understanding. Even if they are in the same realm, the combat power is very different!
There are nine grades of martial arts in the world today. Those that can damage armor without breaking it are the lower three grades. Those that can break less than six pieces of armor are the middle three grades. Those that can break eight or nine pieces of armor are the third grade.

A second-rank junior grandmaster can at least break the armor of more than ten people. In the martial arts world, he is already considered a master. Even in the army, he is a general-level figure.

The armor-breaking here refers to the imperial standard plate armor, which has two layers, front and back, and has strong defensive power. How much armor can be broken in one move has become a standard for measuring the strength of a warrior.

The strength of a second-grade junior grandmaster may be at a rough level, but when it comes to the first grade, the gap is completely widened.

Xu Chunlin's mother, Wu Su, once used the Daliang Dragon Sparrow Sword in her hand to break 160 armors with one sword.

Jian Jiuhuang's senior brother, the former Sword Emperor of Western Chu, once broke more than 600 pieces of armor with one sword in the last battle of his life, but eventually died of exhaustion.

In the same first-grade Vajra realm, there are also pseudo-Vajra realms and great Vajra realms. Some people can kill land immortals with Vajra, while some Vajra may not be as good as the second-grade junior master.

Realm is not the only criterion for measuring combat power. Although the King Kong Realm is already a first-class master, there are still quite a few of them in the entire world.

In this world, no matter whether one is an ordinary warrior or a person of Confucianism, Taoism or Buddhism, in the end of cultivation, they will more or less rely on luck.

If a person's luck is strong enough, then his cultivation will be quite easy. He can observe the nature of heaven and earth and see how water drips through a stone. Then he may have an epiphany and comprehend some powerful tricks.

On the contrary, if one lacks luck and understanding, it will be extremely difficult to break through.

There are immortals in the sky of this world, and those so-called immortals influence the human world by fishing for the fortune of the human world, making it impossible for the human world to completely dominate the world, and even unable to truly control their own destiny.

Many years ago, a book reader named Huang Longshi came to this world and instigated a war among the nine countries, which led to constant wars among the nine countries during the Spring and Autumn Period. Eventually, the Liyang Dynasty unified the world.

This also allowed a lot of luck from the nine countries to flow into the martial arts world, making it easier for practitioners around the world to break through and creating more masters.

If the whole world is compared to a fish pond, the immortals in the sky are the anglers, the people who catch fish.

When the luck of the nine countries flows into the rivers and lakes, it is like sprinkling a lot of bait in the pond, making the fish grow bigger.

This is also the reason why there are more and more top-notch masters in the world in recent years.

Of course, the luck of this world is always limited. After being divided among countless people in the world, it can certainly produce many masters, and even the number of immortals on land will increase.

However, this approach is tantamount to exhausting the resources. Once most of the world's luck is consumed, it will be difficult for land immortals to appear again in the next thousand years.

The great reduction in the luck of the human world will also make it difficult for the immortals in heaven to influence the human world through luck.

Perhaps, after that, heaven will return to heaven and the earth will return to the earth.

It is difficult for ordinary people in the world to ascend to heaven, and even achieving the second rank is difficult. The martial arts are gradually declining, and there are no longer so many masters in the world. Perhaps it will transition from a cultivation civilization to a technological civilization.

Of course, all this is still a long way off.

There are many brilliant people in this world who do not want to be manipulated by the immortals in heaven and want to truly control their own destiny.

Therefore, Zhang Fuyao, the first Confucian sage, ruled the world for eight hundred years, trying to keep the world peaceful and prevent immortals from fishing for the fortune of the world.

There was Wang Xianzhi who guarded the gate of heaven for the mortal world, and there was the Peach Blossom Sword God Deng Tai'a who did not allow any immortals to exist in the mortal world under his sword.

Throughout the world, more and more people have broken through to the first level, thinking that they can be the one who breaks the situation, the one who plays the chess game.

Little do they know that someone is using the entire world as a chessboard and the immortal in heaven as his opponent, hoping to bring eternal peace to the world.

.........

Back to the point.

Knowing that he was no match for his opponent, Han Diaosi decisively chose to escape, and ordered the thousands of cavalry to stop Xu Chunlin's pursuit.

"Want to run?"

Xu Chunlin sneered, his figure flashed, he stepped on the seven stars, starlight appeared under his feet, and then he disappeared from the spot, leaving only thousands of faint afterimages in the air.

Although Han Diaosi is also a top master in the Great Finger Profound Realm, he is like a child in front of Xu Chunlin and has no ability to fight back.

He tried his best to move his body, trying to escape from Xu Chunlin's pursuit, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not get rid of Xu Chunlin's lock.

"You can't escape!"

Xu Chunlin's voice sounded softly in Han Diaosi's ears, like a magic spell, causing Han Diaosi's mind to tremble involuntarily.

He looked back and saw that Xu Chunlin had caught up with him and was only a few feet away from him.

Han Diaosi was terrified. If this continued, he would probably die today.

He was not willing to die like this.

So, he tried his best to mobilize the remaining energy in his body, trying to fight a life-and-death battle with Xu Chunlin.

However, Xu Chunlin just smiled faintly, stretched out his palm, and lightly slapped Han Diaosi.

"Try my newly developed palm technique!"

To deal with Han Diaosi, a powerful eunuch, one naturally has to use a vicious palm technique. This palm may seem understated, but the power contained in it is enough to destroy Han Diaosi's flesh and blood.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, Han Diaosi's body flew backwards as if hit by a sledgehammer, and more than 200 bones in his body were shattered like sand.

But the flesh on the surface was not damaged at all.

At the same time, the blood in Han Diaosi's body seemed to be completely mobilized by that palm. Under the power, it flowed out directly through thousands of fine and dense pores, penetrated his body, and spilled bright red all over the ground.

His body suddenly became dry like a withered flower, like a piece of human skin wrapped around broken bones.

Han Diaosi spurted out blood uncontrollably, but the blood turned into a light red color. His face immediately turned as pale as paper, and his eyes were full of despair and unwillingness.

If he hadn't been relying on Han Diaosi's Great Finger Xuanjing to keep him alive, he would have died long ago.

He didn't expect that he would die at the hands of such a young man, and moreover, die so miserably and powerlessly.

"You... who are you?" Han Diaosi raised his head with great difficulty and looked at Xu Chunlin, wanting to know who the young man who killed him was.

Xu Chunlin looked down at Han Diao Temple and said calmly, "Me? I am just a passer-by in the vast world."

Xu Chunlin lifted Han Diaosi's messy hair, asked him to open his eyes wide to see his appearance clearly, and said cruelly in his ear:
"Don't worry, I won't kill you right now, because it would be too easy for you to die so easily. I'm sure you can feel your current state. You are just holding on with one breath."

"I want you to live like this, to live in this way, unable to live, unable to die, so that you know what it means to live a life worse than death!"

"From now on, this broken body of yours can only crawl in darkness and twisted form!"

"Also, if you dare to commit suicide, or if you can't hold on and die early, I will definitely kill Zhao Kai and bury him with you!"

"Hahaha!"

Xu Chunlin looked up to the sky and laughed.

"you you!!!"

Han Diaosi widened his eyes and looked at Xu Chunlin as if he were a devil. He had always prided himself on being vicious and cruel, but this was the first time he felt uneasy towards other people.

He had committed too many sins in his life and had killed countless people. Perhaps Han Diao Si had already anticipated that he would not have a good end, but the person he least wanted to involve was his apprentice Zhao Kai.

That meal may have been his last bit of warmth and humanity.

"You killed me! Kill me!"

Han Diaosi shouted, trying to provoke Xu Chunlin, asking only for a quick death and for all cause and effect to be erased.

Xu Chunlin didn't care about Han Diaosi's life or death. He turned around and looked at the cavalry who were still desperately fleeing, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Although these cavalrymen are the elite of the Liyang Dynasty, in Xu Chunlin's view, they are just a group of ants.

He raised his hand and flicked his sleeves, and put his hands behind his back. Two powerful auras swept out instantly, turned into tornadoes, and rolled back, covering all the cavalry.

"what!"

The cavalrymen let out screams of terror, and both they and their horses were strangled by the energy created by the sleeves, and instantly collapsed into a rain of flesh and blood.

One sleeve of armor can break three thousand six!

Xu Chunlin didn't even look at the corpses of the cavalrymen and turned away.

He looked back at Tai'an City. The feud between him and the Liyang Dynasty had just begun.

"Next time you come, it won't just be a matter of killing a few people!"

"I will lead the Hanmolin Cavalry and march straight in!"

"The streets of heaven are trampled with the bones of nobles!"

"drive!"

Xu Chunlin rode away on his horse, and Qi Lianhua waited for him outside Tai'an City, but it was obvious that there was someone who didn't want him to go away so easily.

After walking for only a few miles, Xu Chunlin and Qi Lianhua were stopped by a young eunuch outside the official road.

The young eunuch clapped his hands and said, "Good scholar, good spirit!"

"Why, you want to stop me too?"

Xu Chunlin stopped his horse and looked at the feminine man with a dragon-like aura. Although he was a eunuch, he had the Confucian air of a scholar and a sense of having seen through the world.

Li Yang has been in existence for more than two hundred years from its founding to the unification of the Central Plains today, so this eunuch has also lived for more than two hundred years. When Li Yang was founded, this eunuch entered the palace.

Xu Chunlin guessed that because of his crippled body as a eunuch, he was originally unable to set foot in the realm of perfect terrestrial immortals.

As a person with heavy yin energy, only the extremely yang and strong dragon energy can make his yin and yang complement each other. Therefore, this young eunuch can live forever by absorbing the yang dragon energy to nourish his qi, blood and essence.

In Tai'an City, he is invincible relying on the dragon energy and the luck of the Zhao family. He is a top celestial being on par with Lu Zu, a great immortal.

He witnessed the changes of Li Yang for two hundred years. There was nothing in the world worth his nostalgia. Everything was just a passing cloud.

Now this young eunuch has come here specifically to wait for him, he might have bad intentions.

The young eunuch also looked at Xu Chunlin and asked curiously, "From your tone, it seems that you have known about my existence for a long time."

Xu Chunlin narrowed his eyes and said, "Of course I know. There are actually quite a few immortals in the world. Zhang Fuyao is one of them because he has achieved immortality by monopolizing the fate of Confucianism for 800 years. But you are probably the only one who claims to be as old as the country."

Faced with such a great immortal, Xu Chunlin's original intention was not to provoke him. After all, less trouble is worse than more, and this person would not take action unless it affected the dragon energy.

But unexpectedly, this person came!
The young eunuch said, "Whether it's killing Master Liu Song or deposing Han Shengxuan, I don't care, but you interrupted the imperial edict, ignored the imperial power, and even clearly opposed the Liyang Dynasty."

"The Liyang Kingdom is unstable right now. If we let a master like you go out, who knows how much chaos it will cause. The Liyang Dynasty may even decline because of it."

"So, you'd better leave your life here today!"

As he spoke, murderous intent flashed in the young eunuch's eyes. Originally, Xu Chunlin was an interesting person in his eyes, but it was a pity that the timing was not right. Liyang was currently in a turbulent time and could not tolerate such a thorn in his side.

After hearing this, Qi Lianhua wanted to protect Xu Chunlin without hesitation, with his hand tightly gripping the hilt of the Great Xia Dragon Bird, but was blocked by Xu Chunlin.

"You are no match for him, let me do it!"

Facing such a master, Xu Chunlin drew out the Hanchi sword behind him for the first time. The sword shone with a cold light and made a clear sound like a "dragon's howl".

I want to sharpen my sword, but I am afraid of the hard work. In the early morning, I open the box and hear the jade dragon howl. The spirit in my hand is three feet of ice, and there is a spirit snake on the stone.

Xu Chunlin's fingers gently brushed across the long sword. In Tai'an City, countless masters were not worthy of unsheathing this Hanchi sword, but now he had encountered an opponent at the very end.

Xu Chunlin exhaled cold air, holding the Frost Chi Ice Blade, and challenged him to a fight: "Please give me your guidance!"

The young eunuch sneered and said, "You are really a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger. Do you know how long I have lived and how many masters I have seen?"

Xu Chunlin did not answer, but slowly raised the Hanchi sword in his hand, and a murderous aura instantly spread.

When Lu Zu draws his sword, it is always: the sword shines brightly, rushing into the bull-fighting world, slaying demons and subduing evil spirits!

Today Xu Chunlin is also going to kill the evil dragon monster!
The two men looked at each other, as if there was an electric current surging in the air. The young eunuch moved and turned into a golden dragon-shaped afterimage and attacked Xu Chunlin. Xu Chunlin's eyes focused, and his body also turned into a sword light and rushed forward.

The sword points to the cold stars, and the sword energy turns into a dragon. A green and cold dragon as big as a mountain is lively and agile, leaping between heaven and earth, calling the wind and rain, stirring up thousands of celestial phenomena. A vast sea of ​​black clouds rises from the sky, heavy snow flutters, and ice covers thousands of miles.

The moment the two men fought, it seemed as if only the two of them and the fierce and mighty sword energy were left in the world. The Hanchi Sword collided with the eunuch's palm, and the extremely strong and yang dragon energy confronted the Hanchi Sword's icy sword energy, making a deafening roar.

Every collision seemed like a landslide and the earth splitting, with the qi of heaven and earth interacting and the tremendous force exploding, turning everything into dust.

My eyes are as cold as the snow on Tianshan Mountain!
A sword cuts through the vast sea of ​​clouds!
Xu Chunlin swung his sword, pulling the clouds in the sky downward. Waves of vast sword energy pushed the floating clouds upside down. He held up the Sword of Heaven in his hand and slashed the golden dragon with it.

And that young eunuch stirred up the celestial phenomena and the clouds, opened the sky with one palm, broke through the dark clouds in the sky, and cut off the clouds to create the blue sky.

"boom!"

Finally, after a loud bang, the two figures flew backwards at the same time. The young eunuch fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with ice chips.
