Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 1913 - The Duel Between the Buddha and the Warrior

“Master Liujie, I won’t show any mercy.”

Qin Nan brought his fists together. A shocking dragon intent burst out from his body with dragon cries.

Liujie murmured a chant. An invisible Bodhi intent formed a giant wall blocking the dragon intent.

“Master Lin Nan, show me what you got. Probing me isn’t necessary.”

Liujie lowered his gaze. His presence was overwhelming.

“Sure.”

Immortal flames erupted in Qin Nan’s eyes.

The Battle Dao Immortal Manuscript in his body was activated. A tremendous battle intent surged wildly like a fierce tide, shaking the hall vigorously.

“This…”

The elders, cultivators, and Qing Liu and her men were astounded.

The battle intent was absolutely terrifying. They had a feeling that an outstanding realm of battle had slowly descended upon the place.

“The successor of the Immortals is truly terrifying!” Yuanjue exclaimed.

“Master Lin has impressive cultivation!”

Liujie wore a stern look. He immediately performed a hand seal and executed two of the Ancient Bodhi Temple’s Arts of Dao Seeking simultaneously.

“The Bodhi is no tree, and the clarity mirror is no platform.”

Liujie raised his voice. Each word was like a clap of thunder.

An ancient tree and an ancient temple floated behind him.

Chants of scriptures echoed in the surroundings. Golden runes floated in the air, each possessed a terrifying Bodhi intent.

“This must be Master Liujie’s true strength!”

Qing Liu and her men bit their lips. They had only forced him to less than seven-tenths of his strength even when they were joining hands against him.

“I didn’t expect Junior Brother Liujie to have comprehended the True Scriptures of Buddhas and the Rulai Ancient Temple to such an extent!”

“It seems like this Lin Nan might lose the duel!”

The smiles on the faces of the elders nearby blossomed.

Yuanji and Yuanjue remained expressionless, yet they were clenching their fists under their sleeves.

If Immortal Arts were allowed in the duel, they believed even two Liujie were no match against Qin Nan.

However, they were having a Duel of Will.

Currently, Bodhi intents were surging wildly within the round diagram, as if they were aiming to convert the battle intent Qin Nan was unleashing.

“Such a strong Bodhi intent! If we are in a normal duel, I can still rely on my other moves. However, we are only competing with our will!”

“I fight against the Heavens and Earth, there’s none I don’t fight, and none I wouldn’t win against!”

Qin Nan’s battle intent skyrocketed once again.

The surroundings were dyed blue by the blinding light. An ancient aura grew rapidly inside the hall.

The two sources of Bodhi intents were suppressed instantly.

Liujie’s expression shifted. He took a few steps back.

“How did his will grow stronger?”

The elders and the cultivators could not believe their eyes.

Everyone knew that there was no classification for the Arts of Dao Seeking. Both Lin Nan and Liujie had the same cultivation level. The former was only using an Art of Dao Seeking, but the latter was using two Arts of Dao Seeking.

Yet why was Liujie losing his ground instead?

“Heart-Cleansing Temple, strengthen me!”

Liujie secured a foothold and performed a hand seal. The temple began to tremble and emit Bodhi rays.

The cultivators outside the temple were startled.

BANG!

Following an explosion, the Bodhi drawings across the ceiling of the main hall emitted blinding glows. The light poured down into Liujie’s body.

Liujie’s aura rose tremendously. It was twice as strong.

“I knew that bald donkey is going to use his shameless tricks!”

Yuanji and Yuanjue cursed. Normally, there was an unwritten rule for a Duel of Will. The usage of artifacts was forbidden too.

“Sitting is Dhyana, walking is Dhyana, a flower as a world, a leaf as a Tathagata!” action

An illusionary golden lotus emerged below Liujie with a majestic aura. A Buddha or a warrior attendant would appear in the hall following every word he uttered.

Qin Nan’s battle intent was suppressed in an instant.

“I’m allowed to use my artifacts?”

Qin Nan raised his brows. His lips curled upward.

“Heart-Cleansing Temple, behave yourself if you don’t want to be destroyed!”

Qin Nan uttered coldly. His right arm transformed into the Heaven-Shattering Saber and stuck into the ground.

Buzz!

The saber buzzed and unleashed an overwhelming will.

BANG BANG BANG!

A series of explosions took place across the rift.

The Bodhi glows that the Heart-Cleansing Temple was emitting dissipated completely. The elders even heard some faint helpless cries.

It left them with great astonishment.

The Heart-Cleansing Temple had almost surpassed the level of a Dao Weapon. It could resist the attacks of a peak Peerless Ruler even if no one was controlling it.

What kind of saber did this mysterious cultivator with the name Lin Nan took out? How could it possibly suppress the Heart-Cleansing Temple to such a great extent?

“Dao-Jolting Saber Art!”

Qin Nan’s hair drifted wildly. He slowly stepped forward. His saber intents soared into the sky and shattered the Buddhas and warrior attendants scattered across it. It felt like no one could put a stop to him.

The outcome of the duel would soon be decided.

“Crap!”

The hearts of the elders sank.

This Lin Nan’s will was just too terrifying. He had forced Liujie into a corner. It was unlikely for Liujie to turn the tables around.

“Junior Brother Yuanji, Senior Brother Yuanjue, it seems like you’ve been planning for this for a long time!”

Liujie suddenly grinned as he spoke, “It’s true that I don’t stand a chance against Liu Nan’s will, but unfortunately, I’m still the winner today!”

He waved his hand. A golden orb floated before him and unleashed a terrifying aura.

“A Sarira of a Nine Heavens Supreme?”

Yuanji, Yuanjue, and the crowd were dumbfounded.

When a senior monk that achieved great heights in Buddhism passed away, their remains would turn into Sariras. These Sariras contained the will of the monks. They could be refined, or used to fight the enemy as they possessed remarkable power.

However, the Ancient Bodhi Temple had always kept the Sariras safely. Yuanji could not even hold onto a Sarira of a Peerless Ruler, yet Liujie was holding onto a Sarira of a Nine Heavens Supreme.

“Amitabha!” Liujie uttered with a loud voice.

The golden Sarira turned into a magnificent figure with a strong will of Buddhism.

Everyone felt themselves to be tiny in front of it.

“Interesting!”

Qin Nan remained still when he saw the figure. He groaned in his heart.

“Divine Battle Spirit, rise!”
