I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory
Chapter Summary
Even the former Great Xue Emperor didn’t dare to face his divine sword head-on, how can this old monk? ”General Rengong roared: “If we win, you just give us what should already be ours, and if we lose, not only do we get nothing, but Sword Elder has to accompany you back and become a monk? This strike, with the power of a Grandmaster level, even the former Great Xue Emperor would not dare to face it head-on, only to dodge.
“Amitabha!
”The old monk, with his hands clasped together, said: “Let us agree to three moves!
This poor monk will stand here motionless, and you may strike me three times!
After three strikes, if this poor monk remains unharmed, then it is poor monk’s victory!
Otherwise, it is your win!
”The crowd was in an uproar!
“To stand still and let Sword Elder strike?
”“Does this old monk have a death wish?
Sword Elder wields a divine sword, his strength rivals that of a Grandmaster!
Even the former Great Xue Emperor didn’t dare to face his divine sword head-on, how can this old monk?
”“Exactly!
Grandmasters are strong, but even they can’t withstand the divine sword!
”“This old monk is too arrogant!
”Sword Elder narrowed his eyes; he felt that things were not so simple.
“What happens if you win, and what if you lose?
”The old monk said: “If you win, this poor monk will immediately step aside, and you can do as you please without further interference from poor monk!
However, if poor monk is fortunate enough to win, then you should retreat!
At the same time, Sword Elder donor should convert to Buddhism and follow this poor monk back to chant scriptures and eat vegetarian meals!
” “Is that what you call a good karmic bond?
”General Rengong roared: “If we win, you just give us what should already be ours, and if we lose, not only do we get nothing, but Sword Elder has to accompany you back and become a monk?
How shameless can you be?
”“Indeed, it is a great karmic bond!
”The old monk’s face was full of compassion: “If the Sword Elder donor wins, there’s no harm, and if he loses, he still has the chance to listen closely to the teachings of Buddha.
Isn’t that good?
”“Hey!
You old bald donkey!
” General Rengong rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight.
Tiangong and General Digong held him back: “Third brother, calm down, you can’t beat him, be careful he catches you and take you back to become a monk!
”After hearing this, General Rengong instantly calmed down.
But he, along with the other Great Xia experts, glared angrily, despising the shameless monk.
Sword Elder, however, showed no reaction and said indifferently, “Master, you really think highly of me!
”“Of course!
Below a Grandmaster, you are indeed the first!
” the old monk said.
“What if I refuse?
” asked Sword Elder.
“If you refuse, it would be best to take your troops and leave now!
Otherwise, as long as this poor monk is here, I will not allow you to continue to harm the people of Great Feng, Amitabha!
” The old monk said with a face full of compassion.
The people of Great Xia looked at each other in dismay.
They had fought so hard to get here, and the thought of leaving without achieving their goal was unbearable.
But to take the bet?
If they won, all would be well, but if they lost, the Sword Elder might never return!
The Sword Elder was Great Xia’s strongest warrior, wielding a divine sword capable of battling a Grandmaster and striking fear into neighboring nations!
If he didn’t return, Great Xia would lose an unparalleled powerhouse!
Who could bear such a loss?
Upon further reflection, everyone realized that the monk wouldn’t have proposed this wager without being fairly confident of winning—at least an 80% chance.
So, very sensibly, they all chose…“Sword Elder, you must not agree!
”“We can’t take this risk!
”“We’d rather return home.
His Majesty won’t blame us!
”The Sword Elder also felt that he couldn’t gamble.
These people from the Buddhist Sect were always cunning and deceitful; who knew what tricks they might be playing behind the scenes?
In the past, when he was a lone wolf with not many years left, it didn’t matter whether he gambled or not.
But now, he was a part of Great Xia, and his Master was the Emperor of Great Xia, who held him in high regard.
His strength was also crucial to the development of Great Xia.
Therefore, he absolutely couldn’t take the risk!
Better to earn less than to suffer a loss!
Just as he was about to refuse, the old monk added, “Donor, actually, you have another choice!
”“What choice?
” asked the Sword Elder.
“Previously, due to the matter with Master Sanchi, our Buddhist Sect owes you a favor!
If you lose, you can use this favor to cancel the debt, and Sword Elder donor won’t have to follow this poor monk back to become a monk.
Wouldn’t that make everyone happy?
Amitabha!
”The Sword Elder narrowed his eyes slightly; he sensed that this was the old monk’s true intention from the start.
The Buddhist Sect owing his Master a favor was originally no big deal.
But now that relations had soured, this favor was like a thorn in the throat of the Buddhist Sect, particularly uncomfortable.
So, they wanted to take this opportunity to reclaim the favor.
In this way, whether they won or lost, there would be no real loss for Great Xia.
The voices of opposition within the Great Xia camp noticeably diminished.
Without hesitation, the Sword Elder declared, “Good!
We’ll settle this in three moves!
You stand still and let me strike three times.
If you remain unharmed, then we of Great Xia have lost!
We will immediately retreat, and the favor owed by the Buddhist Sect will be considered repaid!
If you lose, you must immediately clear the way and not obstruct the Great Xia troops!
”The old monk smiled and said, “Agreed!
”And so, the wager was set!
The old monk brought his hands together in prayer and said, “Sword Elder donor, this poor monk is ready.
You may strike!
”“Alright!
” The Sword Elder, taking no chances, gripped the Xuanxiao divine sword with both hands and concentrated all his True Qi into a powerful slash.
“Clang!
”The Sword Qi was sharp, instantly spanning a hundred yards, and came slashing down in front of the old monk!
The sword strike was so terrifying that it could probably cut through city walls!
Someone couldn’t help but shout, “Be careful!
”Yet, the old monk remained calm and unmoved, not taking a single step, only chanting a Buddhist invocation.
“Amitabha!
”The sword finally descended!
“Boom”The sound was like thunder.
Dust billowed up, obscuring the sight of many people.
After a moment, when the dust had settled, everyone could see that a crack three zhang wide and a hundred zhang long had appeared on the ground.
It stretched from the Sword Elder’s zhang all the way to the gates of the Golden City.
But at the old monk’s position, it stopped.
The old monk appeared unharmed, not having moved an inch, and not even a speck of dust had settled on his clothes.
Everyone couldn’t help but inhale sharply in awe.
“So powerful!!!
”“This sword strike could split a small mountain, yet the other party is unharmed?
”“Is his body made of iron?
”“Even iron wouldn’t suffice, is there any iron harder than his body?
”“Who is this old monk, and how is he so terrifying?
”The faces of those from Great Xia changed dramatically, while those from Great Feng began to celebrate.
“Your Majesty, how powerful is Master Jiechen?
” an old minister asked with a smile.
The Great Feng Emperor couldn’t help but give a thumbs up: “Master Jiechen is truly too strong!
To block such a terrifying move with his mortal flesh!
With him, Great Feng has nothing to worry about!
”“Your Majesty, was the price worth it?
”The Great Feng Emperor thought of the price he had paid, his mouth twitching slightly.
To invite the Buddhist Sect’s Grandmaster to block the iron hooves of Great Xia, he had agreed to make Buddhism the state religion and fully support the Buddhist Sect in spreading their teachings and development here.
In addition, he had donated five million taels of money to the Buddhist Sect to invite this Grandmaster.
Now it seemed expensive, but worth it.
Below the city tower, the old monk smiled faintly: “Amitabha!
Sword Elder donor, you have two more moves!
”“I am aware!
” The Sword Elder’s expression was extremely grave.
Just now, he had used 90% of his strength to deliver a terrifying blow!
This strike, with the power of a Grandmaster level, even the former Great Xue Emperor would not dare to face it head-on, only to dodge.
Yet, the old monk in front of him had taken it head-on and remained unharmed.
This old monk was much stronger than the Great Xue Emperor.
