. . " Monk Tanxin's face changed drastically; his chest burst open with a bang, and the forty-five kinds of dragon force tore out of his body.
Forty-nine savage dragon heads opened their great jaws and roared to all four quarters, ferocious beyond measure. Blood sprayed in every direction; much of it flew to every side and fell upon the faces and the black robes of monk after monk.
Shen Mu shook his head. "Had you borne me no murderous intent, I could have held back and spared your life; but you were set on beating me to death, and so I could not hold back.
" The monks were stunned.
Suddenly a monk pointed at him and cried furiously, "He killed brother Tanxin with demonic arts! Demonic arts, that is what he used!
" Shen Mu's gaze fell upon him, and he said slowly, "Are the Tingming Eight Secrets a demonic art?
I am of the Five Luminaries realm; he was of the Six Harmonies realm. I killed him with the very same move.
Because you will not admit his skill fell short, you call it demonic arts?
Tathagata, your disciples bring shame upon you. " "Vile heresies to delude the crowd.
I will kill you! " A furious shout rang out, and a monk in yellow robes came charging with a howl, his vital essence surging vast and mighty. He was plainly at the peak of the Six Harmonies realm, his arts overbearing beyond compare, his momentum like rushing thunder. Shen Mu did not even look.
He raised his hand and the Chubao Sword flew out: Surging River, Setting Sun.
Sword-light blazed, and the yellow-robed monk was in an instant riddled with a hundred wounds, his corpse dropping down. His face cold, Shen Mu said, "This is the Falling Sun Swordplay of the Kingdom of Yuyuan.
" A monk lunged at Shen Mu's back, about to strike the killing blow, when suddenly behind Shen Mu a gateway opened wide: the Heaven-Bearing Gate. Unluckily the monk rushed into the gateway; a beam of lamplight shone out, and his soul was at once sucked into Youdu and carried off with the ship. The Heaven-Bearing Gate closed behind Shen Mu, and he said coldly, "That was no demonic art either, but the Heaven-Bearing Gate of Youdu.
" "Kill this demon! " Another monk came to kill him, and Shen Mu drove out a fist.
"Mayasa! " The monk's soul was blasted from his body and shattered in midair.
Shen Mu said in a fury, "Now that is a demonic art! Do you see it?
I have no gift for demonic arts at all!
"
