Chapter 310 Undercurrent
"Your Highness, save me!"
The eight Buddhist monks held their prayer beads strung together in a straight line, like a long sword, which swept across and bent several spider silk threads.
He then heard his men calling for help, but his intelligence told him not to interfere!
He was just a subordinate; his death is no big deal.
Once I escape alive, I will take my revenge one day!
Perhaps even he himself didn't realize that in those few short moments, the roles of hunter and prey had been reversed.
However, just as he broke free from the spider silk's control and turned to flee, Ye Kang's cold face suddenly appeared, followed by a massive fist that came crashing down.
"Little tricks!"
With a thought, the Eight Buddhas held a prayer bead sword in each hand and thrust it forward fiercely.
This move contains the immense true energy of the Three Lotus Leaves and flashes with martial arts inspiration; it is clearly a sneak attack that can be countered instantly!
Eight Buddhas grinned maliciously, their eyes gleaming with triumph.
Do you really think this Buddhist disciple is afraid of you?
It's just a pretense of weakness to lure you in.
This final, deadly move is unstoppable by any warrior of the Three Leaves!
How would you cope with such a close distance?
Click!
The answer is that there was no response.
Ba Fuzi stared at his hands in shock.
The prayer beads and longsword each pierced halfway into Ye Kang's chest, drawing blood; they had almost pierced through!
However, countless spider silks had already wrapped around his wrists, temporarily fixing his body in place.
It was in this delicate struggle that Ye Kang's fist came crashing down.
Ink patterns appeared, and immense force pierced through.
A fine head was reduced to minced meat and vanished.
Amidst the spray of blood mist, the lower half of the Eight Buddhas' body continued to fly forward.
Ye Kang used his physical strength to shatter the prayer bead sword. Then, as if nothing had happened, he grabbed Ba Fuzi's body, tore off his storage bag, and burned him to ashes with a burst of demonic fire.
The remaining four henchmen, tightly bound by spider silk, watched this scene in utter terror.
His Highness is dead!
Ye Kang looked back, the spider silk slashed violently, blood vessels burst, and the four people's life force dissipated.
Ye Kang was very disappointed that none of them had storage bags on them.
He quickly swallowed a precious plant, and the Flood Dragon Blood Forging Technique slowly circulated. Combined with the Holy Extreme True Qi, the wounds on his body healed rapidly, and in no time, the injuries were no longer visible.
After breaking through to the Lotus Realm, my body's self-healing ability has been significantly enhanced. With the help of the Demon Body Refining Technique and the precious plants, a mere fatal injury is nothing to worry about.
Ye Kangfei landed in front of the actress and said, "Let's go, there shouldn't be any ambushes now."
"Yes!"
The actress suddenly jolted, her body stiffening taut.
All that had just happened made her dare not question Ye Kang in the slightest. This man was so strong that she dared not look him in the eye!
Two Buddhist disciples from the Buddhist kingdom have actually died!
After a moment of stunned silence, she suddenly realized something and hurriedly said, "My lord, the Tenth Buddha has been in contact with those treacherous people from the White Lotus Sect!"
"When?" Ye Kang asked, his eyes filled with doubt.
"Shortly before he went to kill you, he met with a member of the White Lotus rebels. I don't know the specifics of their conversation, but it was definitely about forming an alliance. If both sides make their move at the same time, the Great Jin Dynasty will be in trouble!"
The actress now unconditionally trusts Ye Kang, and therefore confides this top secret to him.
But Ye Kang just shook his head: "This is not my task. Go tell Leng Shuai and let him decide."
Ye Kang was somewhat interested in the White Lotus Sect, after all, their Supreme Yin-Yang Reversal White Lotus Technique was useful to him, and he could put it into the Furnace of Myriad Laws to open up another path for him to open up.
However, this interest ranks behind that of the Gu Clan.
Although the lotus has already been formed, Ye Kang still wants the subsequent parts of the Imperial Supreme Heaven-Reaching Technique.
Can the lotus-growing part of the orthodox Huangji Tongtian Gong be integrated with the Shengji Tongtian Gong deduced by the system?
He was very curious about this.
Along the way, Hua Dan's injuries gradually improved, while Ye Kang rummaged through Ba Fo Zi's storage bag.
There were quite a few things, but unfortunately, they weren't very useful.
Of the twenty precious plants, only one could be used for body tempering. Ye Kang consumed it directly, recovering from his injuries while simultaneously tempering his body.
With about 200 spirit crystals, Ye Kang's total number of spirit crystals reached 500.
The remaining miscellaneous items were used either to set up talisman arrays or to launch sneak attacks and poisons, showing absolutely no trace of the righteousness of Buddhists.
Ye Kang casually took out some usable items and then tossed the entire storage bag to Hua Dan.
"Take it. Don't come to the border before the Buddhist kingdom is destroyed."
"Thank you, Mr. Ye!"
The actress's eyes lit up with delight. The storage bag was incredibly beautiful and spacious; even a martial artist of innate talent couldn't possibly possess something so wonderful.
Ye Kang didn't care, he had already seized too many. The key was that these things couldn't be stacked, and the storage bags couldn't be put into another storage space, including the ancient jade treasure.
Ye Kang already has several hanging on him; if he hangs any more, he'll truly become an eight-bag elder.
Rather than losing it, I'd rather give it away.
"Lord Ye, your recapture of Jiaozhou is undoubtedly a monumental achievement! I will certainly report the truth to you and strive for the best possible credit for you!"
In a tit-for-tat manner, the actress clearly regarded herself as Ye Kang's subordinate.
Ye Kang nodded and said, "Alright, but I have a question I'd like to know."
"Excuse me, sir."
"If the ten disciples of the Buddha Kingdom are already this strong, then the ruler of the Buddha Kingdom must be a Grandmaster, right?"
"My lord, you may not know this, but the Buddhist Kingdom only has ten disciples. The ruler is the former King Yelan, who now has no real power."
"So, the Buddha's disciple is the king of the Buddha's kingdom?"
"You must have guessed something, sir."
The actress sighed.
Ye Kang said calmly, "The only possible controller behind the Buddhist Kingdom is a reclusive sect. Otherwise, it wouldn't pose such a huge threat to the Great Jin. So who could it be?"
"A secluded Buddhist temple, Beiluo Temple."
The actress spoke the name solemnly.
These elite Qinglin Guards were more familiar with the current situation than Ye Kang was.
The so-called Buddhist disciples were actually ten people trained by the Beiluo Temple. They first seized the Yelan Kingdom, and then wanted to seize the Great Jin Dynasty, aiming to spread Buddhism throughout the world.
Behind all of this was the instruction of Beiluo Temple.
Ye Kang was even more puzzled.
"Since it's a reclusive Buddhist sect, why resist? Just open the gates and hand it over. Otherwise, do you think a mere mortal can defy a reclusive sect?"
The actress shook her head.
"It's not that simple. These hidden sects are strange. They're like...fighting crickets? Although Beiluo Temple created the Buddhist Kingdom, it won't personally intervene. As soon as they make a move, the four major hidden sects within the Great Jin will also take action."
"In other words, the hidden sects are also vying for power. Leng Shuai said that these high-ranking figures seem to be getting anxious, but no one knows exactly what they are anxious about."
The actress revealed everything she knew.
This further confirmed Ye Kang's idea.
The undercurrents are surging even fiercer. What exactly are the hidden sects so anxious about? What are they planning to do? Will a war break out?
Everything was unknown, and the only thing Ye Kang knew was that with his current strength, he was far from being able to deal with these unknowns.
He needs to become stronger faster!
