Chapter 1973 11972 3 Buddhas 1 Body, Sword Proves Bodhi
Chapter 1973 1.1972 Three Buddhas as One, Sword Proving Bodhi
The swordplay conveys compassion, its power is like thunder. "A Bodhisattva with lowered brows, a Vajra with wrathful eyes," this is what is meant by "a Bodhisattva's heart, a thunderbolt's methods."
It is also said, "The sea of suffering is boundless, but turning back is the shore." The sword move twists and turns, with many turns. The sword energy transforms into ten thousand golden rays, shining brightly. The true energy used is the one previously seized.
As Wu Chen previously stated, the *Emei Three Yang Skill* can both reverse the flow of Qi in the dantian and regulate the flow of Qi in the dantian. It's like three Buddhas standing side-by-side, moving from the past to the present and then to the future, or from the future back to the present and then back to the past. According to the skill, it's not a matter of time and space shifting, but rather the forward and reverse circulation of Qi in the dantian and dantian. After all, the *Emei Three Yang Skill* is, in essence, a martial arts manual, and the Buddhist teachings it incorporates must be related to its practice. Readers, please remember not to put the cart before the horse.
But as Master Jingyin's sword pointed, the thirteen female eagles, seemingly with wings, could not escape. Streams of sword energy pierced their bodies, like golden needles stabbing acupoints. Their entire bodies ached unbearably, their meridians were damaged, their true energy surged, and they were in danger of their cultivation being broken.
On the other hand, the Thirteen Female Eagles were not entirely without a chance to fight back. The Xuanwu Flying Eagle Formation adapted to the situation, changing tactics accordingly. Seven figures—blue, gold, yellow, white, gray, red, and indigo—were seen, moving alone or in pairs like shooting stars, their cries echoing. Within the formation, water and fire intertwined, dust filled the air, and the cold moonlight mingled with bursts of flame—a scene both eerie and dangerous.
The two sides were locked in fierce combat, and it was difficult to determine a victor for the time being.
However, as one thing diminishes, another increases. The Thirteen Female Eagles' true energy was more than half depleted, and she gradually became powerless.
As Wu Chen previously stated, the Jade Maiden Sword Technique appears to be a dignified swordsmanship on the surface, but in reality, it uses the sword as a medium to absorb internal energy. Its core essence is "outwardly displaying celestial beauty, inwardly possessing divine power; the sword of passion evokes desire, stealing jade and fragrance; yang gives rise to yin, yin devours yang." Practitioners seek out "sword cultivation furnaces," where, in sword battles, their minds are disturbed, and their true energy is stolen.
In other words, every move of the seven Emei disciples was "using the sword as a medium to steal true essence." And the thirteen female eagles who fought against them were actually "sword cultivation furnaces" for feeding them moves.
The seven disciples relied on the "Emei Three Yang Skill," which, though not widely known, was comparable to the "Northern Darkness Divine Skill."
Especially when true energy is greatly depleted, the Divine Strike will become unsustainable. Unable to invoke divine possession, the power of the "Black Tortoise Flying Eagle Killing Formation" will be greatly reduced. This is exactly the same as Xiao Huaiya's defeat in the first round when she invoked the Pleiades Star Lord.
Wu Chen had already foreseen the secret. The Qimen Dunjia technique inscribed on the body of the Thirteen Female Eagles required divine intervention to activate. This was a method for quickly mastering divine skills. Otherwise, the Thirteen Female Eagles themselves would be unable to activate the Qimen Dunjia. This was also the only weakness of "divine intervention." As the saying goes, "Sincerity brings results." In short, the one who invokes the spirit must be completely focused and free from distractions to successfully summon the spirit. Once their spirit falters or their mind wanders, the technique will immediately fail.
Therefore, we should respect the elixirs that can enhance one's skills and accelerate one's cultivation.
With victory seemingly within their grasp, the seven masters and disciples pressed on, unleashing the ninth move, "Three Yangs Revolving."
Sword energy swirled, coalescing into a vortex. True energy converged, like the sun high in the sky. The sword techniques were extremely varied, sometimes as fiery as fire, like tender love; sometimes as cold as ice, like lingering hatred. The Three Yang True Energy circulated endlessly within the sword techniques, subjecting the opponent to extreme torment, like being subjected to nine layers of ice and fire. At best, it would injure the body; at worst, it would kill. The slightest carelessness would cause the mind to lose its composure, turning the opponent into a walking corpse.
The ninth move of the Jade Maiden Swordplay, "Three Yangs Revolve," gathers the energy of the sword into Yang. This move is similar in principle to the eleventh move of the Thirteen Styles of Gentle Breeze, "Gentle Breeze and Bright Moon."
The vortex of true qi (gathering qi into yang) generates an immense suction force. Under the rotation of the three yang energies, the thirteen female eagles' dantian trembles, and their dantian floats. The true qi stored in the eight extraordinary meridians is rapidly drained through the limbs and bones. Despite giving it her all, her power gradually wanes. Losing her composure inevitably leads to distracting thoughts.
With his Qi and blood fluctuating, his spiritual attack showed increasingly unstable signs. The most obvious manifestations were incessant blinking and twitching of the corners of his mouth.
"We must not allow them to unleash the 'Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage' technique!" With this thought in mind, Granny Huang Ying, possessed by the Star Lord Doumu Xie, decisively declared: "Seven constellations emerge simultaneously!"
Just as Granny Ma had predicted, the tenth move, "Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage," is the ultimate secret of the Jade Maiden Sword Technique. When unleashed, illusions abound, sword energy paralyzes the body, and countless alluring celestial maiden phantoms appear around the opponent, dancing and singing seductively, emitting decadent melodies. This is both a blissful illusion and an unending hell. All these illusions, combined with the sword techniques, pierce the mind, not killing but destroying the spirit. It completely transforms the opponent into a sword-obsessed furnace, achieving ultimate worship.
Of course, from the perspective of a martial arts master, the person is already "dead" at this moment. Because the sword spirit is dead.
Therefore, sensing the impending crisis, Granny Huangying decided to take a desperate gamble, unleashing the full power of the Seven Constellations of Xuanwu in one strike.
It is said that the "Black Tortoise Flying Eagle Killing Formation" resonates with the chilling aura of the Northern Constellations, combining the steadiness of the Black Tortoise with the ferocity of the Flying Eagle. It traps enemies invisibly and eliminates them in an instant, making it a peerless formation in the martial arts world. The key to breaking the formation lies in simultaneously disrupting the combined power of the seven constellations. This can be achieved by using a powerful light to break the concealment of the Sun Rat, using ice to counter the raging flames of the Chamber Fire Pig, or by forcibly shattering the illusory image of the Black Tortoise with external force, striking it with power far exceeding the formation's tolerance limit.
Of course, like the Jade Maiden Sword Technique, a gradual approach, like slowly devouring a whole enemy's strength, until their true energy is exhausted, is also a way to win.
With a sharp shout from Granny Huangying, the Seven Constellations Gods—Doumu Xie, Niu Jinniu, Nvtu Fu, Xu Ri Shu, Wei Yue Yan, Shi Huo Zhu, and Bi Shui Yu—attacked simultaneously with all their might!
In an instant, the Xuanwu Flying Eagle Killing Formation opened wide, its aura overwhelming heaven and earth. Before the seven masters and disciples could change their moves, the cold-blooded female Thirteen Eagles unleashed a sudden, desperate arrow, fighting to the death.
Relying on their numerical advantage and the Seven Constellations Divine Power, they broke into the sword formation in one fell swoop, disrupting the swordplay of the seven masters and disciples. Especially the eldest sister, Li Lumei, known as the "Three Phoenixes of Emei," was inferior in skill to the two heroines, Xiyue and Chilian, and far less skilled than her master, Jingyin. Under the frenzied attacks of the Thirteen Eagles, her swordplay became chaotic, and she faced constant danger. Fortunately, the two heroines, Xiyue and Chilian, provided cover from the side, barely managing to stabilize the situation.
However, the six of them could only barely protect themselves and had no strength left to form a sword formation to counterattack the powerful enemy.
At this moment, all hope of turning defeat into victory rests on the shoulders of Abbess Jingyin, the leader of the Emei sect.
The spectators upstairs thought so, and so did the thirteen female warriors in the arena. The Seven Constellations Divine Strike unleashed a barrage of eighteen weapons at Abbess Jingyin, the leader of the Emei Sect. Fortunately, as a renowned martial arts master, Abbess Jingyin maintained her breathing and swordplay as usual.
Respond to each move with a counter-move, attack swiftly and defend quickly.
Although unable to unleash the tenth move, "Ten Thousand Buddhas Paying Homage," the Thirteen Female Eagles were also unable to achieve a quick victory. The Seven Constellations Divine Strike circled around the Abbess Jingyin, shifting between offense and defense, their figures moving like lightning.
The depletion of true energy far exceeds that of before.
Even more remarkably, while Master Jingyin remained unmoved, sword in hand, positioned in the center, facing enemies from all sides, a figure with three heads and six arms was rapidly taking shape, visible to the naked eye.
"The Three Buddhas are one, the sword proves enlightenment!" A discerning person exclaimed in surprise.
Yes. Just as Wu Chen succinctly revealed the essence of the Jade Maiden Sword Technique: "Sink your Qi to the Dantian, remain still; let your strength flow through the eight meridians, gain wisdom and supernatural powers; let your intention be attached to the sword moves, compassionately guide and transform; let the three Buddhas become one, and let the sword prove enlightenment."
The nun Jingyin was transformed into a three-headed, six-armed being, which corresponds to the unity of the three Buddhas.
Only waiting for the sword to prove enlightenment.
"Don't let her make a move!" Seeing that disaster was imminent, Granny Huang Yingma, who had been possessed by the Star Lord Doumu Xie, gathered all her strength and struck out with both palms.
It is none other than the unique and divine skill: the Cloud Rolling Palm!
The force of the palm strike swirled and twisted the Emei sword in Master Jingyin's hand into a pretzel in an instant. Seeing the force shatter the hilt, she had no choice but to discard the sword to protect herself. Facing the twelve-fold cloud palm strike, Master Jingyin pushed her palm forward to meet it!
"Bang—" True energy burst forth, and figures flew everywhere.
The two men clashed palms together, exchanging internal energy. This sent everyone flying.
"Master!" After a somersault, the Emei disciple hurriedly gathered his energy and stepped forward, transferring his power through his palms.
The thirteen female eagles, without any distinction of order, gathered behind Granny Huang Ying and lined up to pass on their skills.
"Not good," sighed the viewer who had been watching earlier.
"Who is at fault?" someone nearby asked hastily.
“It is indeed the Thirteen Eagles,” the man replied.
"How do you know this?" Some people will surely disagree.
"Brother, don't forget, Abbess Jingyin still has a trump card."
