Chapter 422: Chapter 422: Flame Saber! Deduction

"Haha..."

Ding Ling laughed loudly, not expecting to encounter such trivial matters at this time. However, he was not someone who feared trouble, and immediately said:

"If you want to engage in a duel with me, you must be prepared to be killed. I do not strike lightly; when I do, blood will surely be shed."

"Truly arrogant."

The old monk, enraged:

"Donor Ding, you set fire to Shaolin, stole the Secret Manual, stubbornly unyielding, extremely murderous, and now dare to speak such arrogant words. Truly, you are clueless."

"I don’t want to waste words with you."

Ding Ling’s face darkened, he waved his hand, and a surge of Vigorous Qi flew out, snap! Instantly capturing the Heaven-Swaying Sword placed at the bedside.

Clang!

Ding Ling drew the sword, pointed it at the group of monks, and coldly said:

"Anyone who doesn’t want to die, get lost immediately!"

Upon saying the last word ’get lost.’

Shezhan Spring Thunder!

Roar!

Sound waves surged forward like dragon’s roar or tiger’s howl!

The sonic wave shocked many monks, their eardrums pierced, some fell to the ground, groaning in agony.

The old monk was even more enraged upon seeing this:

"Even Buddha has three points of fire. Donor Ding is this reckless, so don’t blame us for being rude."

The old monk gestured and launched an attack first:

"Let me show you the Shaolin Temple’s Prajna Divine Palm!"

He struck out with his palm.

The powerful Palm Power condensed into a forest of steles; one palm struck out, followed by another quickly. In no time, the air was filled with dense palm shadows.

These palm shadows’ Qi interweaved into a net, yet overwhelmingly powerful to the extreme, seemingly like a mountain pressing down from above, capable of crushing and shattering everything.

The Little Dragon Girl saw this, frowned, and instinctively tightened her grip on the Golden Bell Rope, ready to act.

But Ding Ling was already one step ahead; he thrust out a sword.

Dugu Nine Swords’ Breaking Palm Form!

A flash of dazzling sword light disappeared in an instant.

Suddenly.

Puff!

It pierced through the sky full of palm shadows, penetrated the old monk’s palm, and in an instant, shredded his arms.

Then Ding Ling stepped forward, in the old monk’s terrified, horrified, and incredulous expression, he swung the sword across, puff!

Directly slicing the old monk’s neck.

In the next moment.

The old monk only felt the world spinning, dizzy and blurred vision. He struggled to open his eyes, seeing a blood-red scene covered in rain.

Once Ding Ling made a move?

There was no reason to hold back.

With the Heaven-Swaying Sword, he stormed into the monk group, dashing left and right, with no enemy able to resist. In just a few moments, corpses littered the ground.

The old monk, with extremely strong vitality, witnessed this scene before dying, his soul swayed unsteadily, feeling the utmost regret and remorse.

’Such a fierce villain, just like the legends of those Aliens. How dare I provoke him?! Truly blinded by anger, foolish beyond measure.’

[Achievement Medal Acquired: Shake the Shaolin Temple Bodhi Hall Abbot.]

[Notes: The Bodhi Hall Abbot’s cultivation has reached the First-class Transformation Realm, Half-Step Innate Realm! Yet faced with you, he was defeated instantly. He came with full confidence, but left bewildered, regretful unto death.

He could not believe this result until death. But with the facts before him, he had to accept, and for this, he felt regret, sorrow, and sadness.

If he could choose again, he would certainly never try to challenge you, let alone attempt to subdue you!]

Upon hearing the prompt.

Ding Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at the scene, walked to the old monk’s remnants, and used the sword tip to pick up the Secret Manual.

Grabbed it.

Carefully inspected. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Sure enough, it was the "Burning Wood Saber Technique!"

He casually flipped through it.

Scanning hundreds of lines quickly, he finished reading.

[Burning Wood Saber Technique Full Level]

[Strength +0.2]

[Agility +0.1]

[Constitution +0.2]

This is an absolutely High Tier Saber Technique Secret Manual.

Ding Ling executed Technique, using his palm as a saber, slashed forward, seeing fiery waves rolling in the void, spontaneously condensing into a Flame Saber!

Though this Flame Saber seemed frail.

Yet under the drive of special Qi, it could become overwhelmingly fierce! Extremely sturdy!

"This saber technique is truly marvelous!"

Ding Ling was moved.

This saber technique that can unleash heat waves and flames, how is it different from Jiu Mozhi’s Flame Saber’s ultimate skill?

Especially when driven by his special fusion qi, it truly becomes a Flame Saber. When swung horizontally, who can withstand it?

"It’s just a bit taxing on the constitution."

Ding Ling looked at his palm, though undamaged, he clearly felt a burning sensation.

It’s thanks to his impressive constitution and defense that he can withstand the Burning Wood Saber fueled by fusion qi.

For others, a single palm strike might lead to a ruined hand.

Using a weapon for the Burning Wood Saber technique seems more appropriate going forward.

At Ding Ling’s level.

He can perfectly execute the Burning Wood Saber technique with a sword, without needing to prepare a saber. His Giant Que Sword is extremely broad, using it as a saber poses no problem.

"Ding Ling, are you alright?"

The voice of the Little Dragon Girl reached out.

Ding Ling broke his thoughts, glanced at Little Dragon Girl, noticed her anxious expression, and replied:

"I’m fine. How could anything happen to me?"

"That’s good to hear..."

Little Dragon Girl let out a sigh of relief, then hesitantly said:

"But... I heard Shaolin Temple is a big sect. We killed so many monks, if they conduct a siege on us, wouldn’t it be hard to escape?"

Little Dragon Girl had been with Ding Ling for some time now, no longer the clueless novice she once was; her understanding of certain common knowledge had grown clearer.

"Why worry?"

Ding Ling raised an eyebrow, stopped resting, went inside to pack up, then stepped outside saying:

"We’ll deal with soldiers with generals, and flood with earth."

"Alright."

Without overthinking, Little Dragon Girl stood firmly beside Ding Ling and said:

"I’ll accompany you."

Just in the recent battle.

She hadn’t even had the chance to act before it ended.

Ding Ling’s combat prowess once again opened her eyes wide.

On his journey, she had witnessed Ding Ling take action numerous times, and each time it reshaped her understanding.

This time, she realized Ding Ling might be strong to an incredible extent; otherwise, how else could he instantly kill a master of exceptional skill?

Indeed.

In her eyes, the head of Bodhi Hall was considered an unbeatable master and powerful figure.

Ding Ling instantly killed such a formidable superior in her mind.

How strong must one be to achieve that?

"Tap tap!"

Both of them stepped through blood, descended the stairs, and encountered the terrified innkeeper and others hiding on one side.

He just glanced at the innkeeper and the rest.

They immediately fell to their knees, continuously kowtowing, pleading, ’Hero, please don’t kill me, Hero, please don’t kill me.’

Ding Ling was taken aback, did he really resemble a villain?

The Little Dragon Girl seemed to perceive his thoughts and said:

"You are a good person. The ones you killed are the bad guys."

Little Dragon Girl had always shown her support for Ding Ling through her actions.

Constantly standing by Ding Ling.

Ding Ling chuckled at her, took her hand, and walked out of the inn!

Just as they exited, turning left.

Ding Ling saw a wash of crimson red lighting up this part of the territory.

Looking towards the direction of the light.

Indeed, Ding Ling saw a raging conflagration ascending the Mount Songh region, the fire burned intensely and greatly; it engulfed the forest, illuminating the Eight Directions Territory as brightly as daylight.

Ding Ling glanced sideways and pondered:

"Who are these people creating such a huge affair? Not only do they commit the act, but they also implicate and frame it on me!"

Information related to Ding Ling was released beforehand, notifying the Shaolin Temple folks of this ’villain’ Ding Ling.

Ding Ling arrived at Mount Songh.

Immediately, a fire broke out, theft occurred, diverting attention, then a player was sent to Ding Ling’s inn to throw the Burning Wood Saber Technique Secret Manual in front of Ding Ling’s door, before logging off and disappearing.

Ding Ling deduced.

This is approximately the conclusion.

As for the specific details within.

Ding Ling was unaware.

However, these people’s precise planning suggests that they might be a group with high IQ.

Regarding such people.

Ding Ling has never harbored contempt.

"But since you’ve provoked me, there’s no way I’d let you go unnoticed."

Ding Ling thought:

"Later I’ll log off, use hacking and other techniques to investigate, I don’t believe I can’t find traces online. As long as I find a hint, you’re dead!"
