Incredible Insight: Cultivating Immortality at Eight, Astonishing Zhang Sanfeng

Chapter 45:The Seven Heroes Take Action

A sudden change struck fear into everyone’s hearts.With a powerful enemy outside and Xie Xun now free inside,a massacre seemed imminent!

The Seven Heroes of Wudang drew their swords and secretly prepared their talismans,shielding the Wudang disciples.

Meanwhile,sounds of fighting erupted outside,revealing the attackers’identity as the Ming Cult.Although fragmented,many powerful figures still respected the Golden-Haired Lion King Xie Xun and had come to aid him,including the Green-Winged Bat King,the White-Browed Eagle King,and the Sack Monk.

Unexpectedly,Xie Xun didn’t plan to escape or join forces with the Ming Cult outside.Instead,he shouted,“Cheng Kun,prepare to die!”and charged towards a monk in Shaolin Temple.

“Yuan Zhen!”

Seeing Xie Xun’s target,the Shaolin monks were puzzled.They didn’t understand why Xie Xun wanted to kill Yuan Zhen while shouting Cheng Kun’s name.

But there was no time to ponder.

The situation quickly descended into chaos,with battles breaking out everywhere,leaving Shaolin Temple in disarray.

Shaolin monks rushed to stop Xie Xun.Seeing Xie Xun’s murderous intent,Cheng Kun panicked,deeply regretting his arrogance in revealing everything to Xie Xun the previous day.He realized if he hadn’t bragged,he could now watch the drama unfold safely rather than face this dire situation.

“Xie Xun,you’re insane!”Cheng Kun roared,finally unleashing his famed skill,the Heaven-Shattering Thunder Hand.

Though blind,Xie Xun’s hatred fueled his lethal intent.His wild saber energy forced Cheng Kun to dodge frantically,unable to confront the Dragon-Slaying Saber’s unparalleled sharpness directly.

“Cheng Kun,you killed my family,betrayed us to the Mongols,and caused chaos in the martial world.You deserve to die!”Xie Xun’s roar shocked everyone,including Song Yuanqiao and the others.

They were stunned to learn that the turmoil in the martial world was orchestrated by the Mongol Yuan dynasty.

Though unconfirmed,it seemed credible.The Mongols had always eyed the Central Plains hungrily,and they had every motive to sow chaos.

What shocked everyone more was a Shaolin monk’s involvement,raising suspicions of hypocrisy.They looked at Abbot Kongwen with newfound distrust.

“Enough!Shaolin is a place of purity,don’t slander it with your nonsense!”Many monks were enraged and attacked Xie Xun together,aiming to quickly subdue him.

Xie Xun roared in anger.

Instead of striking others,he swung the Dragon-Slaying Saber at himself,severing his left arm.His blood soaked the saber,turning it a sinister red and making it even sharper,with a formidable aura that kept the monks at bay.

This was a technique Xie Xun had discovered by chance—using his blood to strengthen the bond with the Dragon-Slaying Saber,enhancing its power.

If Ning Changge were here,he would recognize this as a crude form of blood refinement.

“Brothers,you should leave.Staying here for me isn’t worth it!”Xie Xun shouted to his Ming Cult allies,appearing like a madman.

He was ready to die,with only one goal in mind:to kill Cheng Kun!

Saber light flashed,slicing through several Shaolin monks.Finally,no one stood between Xie Xun and Cheng Kun.

With a resolute swing,Xie Xun decapitated Cheng Kun!

Everyone was stunned.

The Ming Cult members retreated,watching from a distance.The rest watched Xie Xun,blood-tears in his blind eyes,holding the saber with his severed arm.

“I’ve finally avenged you!”Xie Xun’s roar moved everyone.

Once leading a happy life,his family was destroyed by Cheng Kun—his wife violated,his son killed.His hatred was boundless.

Now,everyone understood the situation.A Shaolin monk,with a grudge against Xie Xun,had caused his family’s massacre.Xie Xun’s return to the martial world for revenge led to the killings,while the monk secretly allied with the Mongols,creating chaos.

Everyone’s eyes flickered with realization.

Kongwen,looking at the dead monks,shouted in anger,“Xie Xun,you must die for your crimes today!”

But Xie Xun’s face twisted into a strange smile.He laughed bitterly,“I,Xie Xun,have killed countless and bear heavy sins.Now that my revenge is complete,I have no face to live on!”

“I know you want the Dragon-Slaying Saber,so—”

“Take it!!!”

Laughing wildly,he struck his chest,blood trickling from his mouth as his strength waned.Falling,his face showed deep disdain.

In his final moment,he threw the saber high into the air!

Everyone’s eyes followed the saber,their hearts racing.The memory of Xie Xun’s ruthless massacre was fresh,and now the masterless saber tempted them all.

Finally,someone couldn’t resist.

“The Dragon-Slaying Saber causes chaos.Only I,Ding Peng of Crescent Moon Villa,the Demon Blade,can suppress it.This saber should be taken back to prevent further bloodshed!”

A master from Crescent Moon Villa leaped towards the airborne saber,moving swiftly to grasp it.

But others wouldn’t allow it.

Most attendees of the Dragon-Slaying Assembly had ulterior motives.People like Song Yuanqiao,who genuinely wanted to destroy the saber,were rare.

“How dare you!Ding Peng is called the Demon Blade.How can the Dragon-Slaying Saber fall into his hands?”

“This saber pairs with the Heavenly Sword.It should be kept by Emei Sect for everyone to study!”

“Shaolin found the saber.How can you take it?”

“Shaolin’s scandalous behavior makes them the least qualified to keep the Dragon-Slaying Saber!”

“By order of the Marquis,we will take the saber to destroy it before all the heroes,ending the chaos!”

In an instant,experts from various sects attacked,their greed overtaking reason.With a plausible excuse,even those who once wanted to destroy the saber,like Master Jinguang,fought to seize it.

Chaos reigned.

The Seven Heroes of Wudang exchanged glances,their eyes burning with determination.

They weren’t after the saber’s sharpness;their own swords,forged by Little Martial Uncle,were equally fine.They coveted the saber’s immense spiritual energy.

“This saber will be invaluable to Little Martial Uncle.We should take it back to Wudang and destroy it before everyone,ending the turmoil and providing him with rare materials!”

“This is a win-win!”

Transmitting their thoughts secretly,the Seven Heroes of Wudang nodded firmly.

“Attack!”

Zhang Cuishan,channeling his Yin-Yang energy,used his peerless lightness skill,Floating Cloud Rainbow Feathers,to leap tens of meters,reaching for the Dragon-Slaying Saber under his companions’cover!
