A Core Ship From The Start-Chapter 2279 - 1538: Dimensional Strike (Full Sim Racing Rig for Double 11)_2

The reason Duanmu Huai summoned the Power Armor was merely to put on a complete act, after all, the Jingnian Zen Sect was insignificant; he could eliminate them with his fists alone. But just like Duanmu Huai previously said to Wan Wan, killing people is easy, but eradicating thoughts is not so simple. That’s why he gathered everyone to enact this scene.

For Duanmu Huai, this was enough.

"........."

When Shi Feixuan opened her eyes, all she saw was chaos.

"Where am I........"

She sat up in confusion, looking around to see that the once vast Jingnian Zen Temple had now completely turned to ruins. Everything around was silent, not even a bird’s song, as if everything here had been utterly destroyed, leaving nothing behind.

Where is Master Liao Kong? Where are the others?

Thinking of this, Shi Feixuan hurriedly got up and looked around, but at that moment, a playful voice sounded.

"No need to find those monks, they’ve already turned to ashes."

Accompanied by this voice, Wan Wan descended from the sky like a Celestial Maiden, landing in front of Shi Feixuan and looking at her with a smiling face. Seeing Wan Wan, Shi Feixuan’s face changed slightly, instinctively reaching for the Colorless Sword at her waist. However, Wan Wan seemed indifferent to Shi Feixuan’s reaction, merely laughed and spoke.

"Sister, you’re too heartless, if it weren’t for Wan Wan pleading with that Lord to spare your life, you might have turned to ashes along with those monks."

"...... Why help me?"

Shi Feixuan naturally wouldn’t let down her guard due to a few words from Wan Wan, she asked in a low voice as Wan Wan stared at her with a playful, bright smile.

"Of course, to let you witness the downfall of Cihang Jingzhai firsthand. It’s quite unexpected that after fighting each other for hundreds of years, you ended up destroying everything due to your own stupidity. From now on, there will be no more Cihang Jingzhai or Jingnian Zen Sect."

With that, Wan Wan suddenly moved quietly closer to Shi Feixuan, staring at her, then leaned towards her ear.

"Never thought this day would come when you would be called the real devils. Now, look, who is the true devil?"

Upon hearing Wan Wan’s words, Shi Feixuan’s face turned pale, her eyes momentarily lost focus, and by the time she came to, Wan Wan had disappeared.

While Shi Feixuan stood silently in the ruins of the Jingnian Zen Sect, speechless, like a corpse.

After completing his post-meal exercise, Duanmu Huai left Luoyang directly, the conflicts there no longer concerned him. However, the impact Duanmu Huai brought was just beginning to manifest.

For those Jianghu people who followed Duanmu Huai to the Jingnian Zen Temple, the scene witnessed at the temple was already enough to shock them for life. Yet when they returned to Luoyang, they found the situation more exaggerated than anticipated——— in fact, when Duanmu Huai destroyed the Jingnian Zen Sect, all the temples within Luoyang were struck by Heavenly Thunder, splitting the Buddha statues, whether gold, stone, or wood, all in half.

Upon learning this, everyone was astonished, though it wasn’t over yet, subsequent reports came from various regions, stating the Buddha statues in temples were split by thunder and lightning, indicating a certain omen.

This naturally was due to Duanmu Huai’s "Sixth Heavenly Demon King" Divine Power effect, a religious specialty attack specifically targeting Buddhism, which Duanmu Huai found quite convenient to use, a mere Southern State could easily be completely enveloped by him.

With this event, the Buddhist Sect’s power in the Southern State greatly diminished, after all, everyone knew Buddhism attempted to choose a master of heaven, angering the skies resulting in the descent of Heavenly Generals for punishment. Suddenly, Buddhism became like rats crossing the street, everyone shouted to eliminate them, and those local overlords began to suppress temples within their domains, forcing monks to return to secular life.

They never wanted to do this before, as temples housed robust young monks, and their lands were extensive and wealthy; whether recruiting soldiers or seizing money, they were the best means. But religion, after all, is a social stabilizing factor, without proper reason to act would incite rebellion within their domains. However, following the destruction of the Jingnian Zen Sect by Duanmu Huai, these rebel overlords were freed from this moral burden, rushing to "carry out heaven’s law" to eliminate Buddhist power within their territories.

After all, we didn’t witness Tathagata Buddha manifesting, but we did see heaven’s manifestation, even though Duanmu Huai clearly favored no sides, if we eradicated Buddhism well, maybe heaven would favor us?

After all, fighting for dominion is a contest for Heaven’s son and Divine Destiny. Heaven has manifested, what else is there to say?

This is much simpler than scrambling for the He Shi Bi.

Thus, everywhere in the Southern State erupted with anti-Buddhist actions, temples were destroyed, monks slain or captured, even Cihang Jingzhai wasn’t spared, as it was the main culprit in selecting the emperor on behalf of heaven. Obviously, whoever could eliminate Cihang Jingzhai might gain heaven’s favor——— consequently, major forces rarely united to attack Cihang Jingzhai, destroying it in one fell swoop. As for the sect leader of Cihang Jingzhai, perhaps recognizing the situation was hopeless, didn’t flee but was destroyed along with Cihang Jingzhai.

With this, the Buddhist power in the Southern State was completely diminished——— simultaneously, raising Duanmu Huai’s Sixth Heavenly Demon King by half a rank.

Thus reflecting that this world is not completely devoid of benefit.

Although Duanmu Huai considered targeting Shi Feixuan, and Wan Wan kept whispering to him to let the fairy taste the flavor, Duanmu Huai thought for a long time and decided against it, he had no particular interest in such affected women like Shi Feixuan, even if it was to gain pleasure experience points, Wang Yuyan, Little Dragon Girl, and Wan Wan were sufficient for now.

Even if it was for practice and leveling up, he had to choose his target, otherwise, he could just go to a brothel, as long as he had money, how many women wouldn’t he get?

However, when forced by Ling’Nu to train in this Ninjutsu back then, Duanmu Huai realized that such work-related interaction was devoid of fun, no wonder many married men called it "prisoner’s duty", speaking of it with eyes dull and a look of utter despair. If there’s no fun involved, it’s no different from torture.

If choosing, he must choose what he likes. Especially with Wan Wan willing to cooperate with Duanmu Huai in every position enthusiastically, significantly enhancing his pleasure experience points.

And Wang Yuyan and Little Dragon Girl weren’t jealous of Wan Wan’s addition; instead, they were relieved, as Duanmu Huai’s energy exceeded that of ordinary people, and even together they couldn’t support for long. Plus, Duanmu Huai liked to use unique positions and games——— though Duanmu Huai thought they were commonplace, Wang Yuyan and Little Dragon Girl found them hard to accept.

Now that Wan Wan was willing to sacrifice herself, reducing their burden, they couldn’t be happier.

Thus, the group of four left Luoyang, heading to their next destination——— Ba Shu.
