CHAPTER 705: 582 VAJRA DEMONIC DESTRUCTION DIVINE PALM

The Tian brothers only had a little over a hundred years of mana cultivation, and even together, they didn’t have half as much as Yu Xiangzhu, let alone when teamed up with Wei Yaozhi, who was also highly skilled in mana.

Their brotherhood, facing both mentor and disciple of the renowned clan, quickly found themselves at a disadvantage.

Yu Xiangzhu fought with increasing ferocity, unleashing all his magical treasures, venting the frustrating defeat he had suffered at the hands of Master Zun Sheng.

The magical treasures that the Tian brothers carried were destroyed one after another as Yu Xiangzhu bore down mercilessly, intent on killing them. Unable to withstand the onslaught, they desperately resorted to their most powerful hidden techniques.

A thousand years ago, Shi Pi the Elder was an Elder of the Demon Cult, and also the Sect Hierarch of the Great Asura Sect, a branch of the Demon Cult. A millennium ago, when the Demon Cult was at its zenith, the Asura Sect was particularly remarkable for its assembly of capable figures.

Another, the Fire Spirit God, was just as renowned as Shi Pi the Elder, ranking among the Cosmic Six Strange. In the past, he had been engaged in a well-matched duel with Li Jingxu.

In addition, Shi Pi the Elder had a disciple, the Golden God Monarch, a wife Adan Han Po, along with other formidable experts under his command, constituting a large and mighty force.

However, as time passed, the Fire Spirit God was the first to retire from worldly affairs.

The Fire Spirit God had one legal wife and two concubines, all of whose mana was said to be no less potent than his, each formidable in her own right. Yet, years ago, fate dealt them a blow, and after his consort’s persuasions about the diverging paths of the Demon and the righteous, encouraging him to return to virtue, the Fire Spirit God chose to retreat and focus on cultivation. He dismissed all his disciples and servants, male and female, keeping only a few, not allowing them to step outside the mountain.

He once had the opportunity to become the Great Asura King and ascend to the Asura Path, but plagued by a severe fateful calamity and numerous enemies, even with Li Jingxu meeting the agreed conditions to aid his ascension, he barely escaped annihilation.

Likewise, the Golden God Monarch and Adan Han Po, due to their impending fateful calamities, hid behind the Yin Mountains, in an isolated and remote area to avoid their fate.

Shi Pi the Elder did not open his own Cave Heaven World, and has been living between Yunnan and Burma on Divine Sword Peak for nearly a hundred years. Transitioning from demon to Buddhist, he’s been cultivating for over a hundred years, seeing through the vanity of many worldly matters.

Long ago, he had already dismissed his followers and disciples and sealed a Demon he had followed for over a thousand years in the Demon Prison, preparing to find a way to transform it.

Besides two maids, the only ones left in the Demon Palace were his much-beloved daughter Ming Shu and the Tian brothers, who had a predestined relationship with him in a previous life and whom he treated as his own sons.

He gave each of the brothers a lotus on top of their heads for protection – treasures he had personally crafted and which were not to be used lightly except in dire circumstances.

Now, as the brothers were no match for Yu Xiangzhu, driven into a tight corner, they both raised their hands to their foreheads and slapped down on them. Two lotuses, one inlaid with gold and jade, one green and one white, were activated by their mana. Like thousands of petals unfolding, they were akin to two blooming lanterns, suddenly spewing thousands of layers of gold and crimson Demonic Flame straight at Yu Xiangzhu and his disciples.

This Asura Divine Flame was incredibly potent; as the burning torrents wildly surged, they turned the entire sky above Shaolin into a blazing crimson in an instant.

The two magical treasures Yu Xiangzhu had released earlier fell into the fire, too late to be retrieved and were reduced to slag in the process, while the Flying Swords’ glow was weakened by the flames, and Wei Yaozhi’s Flying Sword dissolved outright into molten metal.

Infuriated beyond measure, the Three Xiang maiden unleashed all her remaining Gui Water Divine Thunder with abandon, clashing ferociously with the Asura Divine Flame.

The further their powers clashed, the greater the affected area, with water battling fire and thunder violently bursting. The mountains echoed with tumultuous roars that shook the very ground.

The monks at Shaolin Temple could no longer maintain their composure and began to emerge, watching from their courtyards as the heads of Dharma Institute, Arhat Hall, Bodhi Institute, Discipline Hall, and Prajna Hall, and others gathered around Master Fang Zheng, "Master Abbott! If they continue to fight like this, Song Mountain will surely collapse, and Shaolin Temple will be destroyed!"

Master Fang Zheng, however, looked calm, "No need to worry. If Master Zun Sheng left reassured and without special instructions, Shaolin Temple will surely not be destroyed..."

As he spoke, a wisp of Asura Divine Flame that had been blown open by the Gui Water Divine Thunder descended. A monk released a Flying Sword to meet it, only for it to melt into molten iron upon contact.

That wisp of Demonic Flame was very sinister; after consuming the Flying Sword, it did not stop but followed the energy trail towards that monk.

Seeing this, Master Fang Zheng hurriedly used the Vajra Zen Palm passed down from Master Zun Sheng, striking the air with a huge golden light hand to disperse the fragment of Asura Divine Flame.

As more and more Demonic Flames fell from the sky, and with the blowback from the Gui Water Divine Thunder explosions, even the glazed tiles on the roof of the Great Hall rattled noisily.

The leaders once again suggested forming the Five Hundred Arhats Formation and releasing Buddha Light to protect Shaolin Temple.

At that moment, from over the mountain, a stream of golden light appeared, also of the Buddhist order. Within it stood two identical young girls, the twin sisters from Immortal City!

Xie Ying and Xie Lin flew side by side. After lifetimes of accumulated cultivation, learning Daoist Techniques from Xie Shan, Ye Bin, and Cui Wu, and studying Buddhist Law with Master Ren and Master Fen Tuo, and together practicing the "Demonic Destruction Treasure Record" by the Absolute Venerable, they had nearly two hundred years of Dao Level. Even though their mana was not as strong as Yu Xiangzhu’s, what they had cultivated was extraordinarily formidable!

As soon as they took action, they released vast Buddha Light, separating the sky-filled Demonic Flames and Water Bombs, "If you keep fighting, Song Mountain will collapse, and countless living beings will perish in an instant. Can you bear the consequences?" Xie Ying shouted to bring both sides to a halt.

Upon seeing the sisters, the Tian brothers’ eyes lit up.
