The Dazzling New Star of the Heroes of the Martial World
Inside the secret chamber of Canglong Cave, the head of Abstaining from Desire, which originally had no hair, suddenly sprouted long black hair, obscuring its features. At this moment, a strange laughter emanated from Abstaining from Desire, saying, "Widespread lust among women, corrupting virtuous wives of the world! Hahaha!"
The two Azure Courtesans watched in terror as Abstaining from Desire underwent a drastic transformation and stood up together, preparing to escape the secret chamber. However, Abstaining from Desire grabbed one with each hand, preventing their escape. Abstaining from Desire revealed a ferocious visage and said, "Though you are lowly women, you have stirred my desires. You have loosened the shackles that bind me; I shall reluctantly satisfy you." With that, Abstaining from Desire displayed an unprecedented technique.
Abstaining from Desire threw one Azure Courtesan into the air and unleashed a Qigong technique, suspending her aloft. The other Azure Courtesan clapped in admiration at this display, but this only drew the ire of Abstaining from Desire. With a single palm strike, Abstaining from Desire shattered the proud bosom of the clapping Azure Courtesan. A scream erupted as blood gushed forth, and she died on the spot from excruciating pain. The Azure Courtesan suspended in mid-air witnessed this horrific scene and was instantly filled with dread. Abstaining from Desire said, "Do not be afraid; it will soon be your turn." After saying this, Abstaining from Desire lifted the remaining Azure Courtesan and channeled internal energy into her, a force directly piercing through her body. Another agonizing scream followed as the Azure Courtesan met her demise in mid-air.
Abstaining from Desire declared, "This is your ultimate enjoyment of my deathly treatment! Hahaha!"
At that moment, Huang Li heard the screams and rushed to the secret chamber. Upon opening the door, he saw the two Azure Courtesans lying lifeless on the ground while Abstaining from Desire appeared completely transformed. Huang Li asked, "Abstaining from Desire, what is going on here?"
Abstaining from Desire slowly donned his clothes and replied, "Huang Li, thank you for preparing this feast for me. In return, I have decided to leave your corpse intact." After finishing his words, Abstaining from Desire gathered energy in his palm; a technique known as **Kiss Without a Seam** unleashed a powerful force that surged toward Huang Li like a massive mouth. With a thunderous impact, Huang Li attempted to resist but could not escape death. Just before his demise, Huang Li exclaimed, "How is this possible?"
Abstaining from Desire laughed and said, "You think you can withstand my astonishing technique? You are simply delusional." With that, he strode away, leaving behind a regretful Huang Li and two bloody corpses of Azure Courtesans. Moments later, Huang Li's eyes widened in death as his gaze was filled with unwillingness.
Within Yun Yin Temple, Duanmu Chong's life-and-death struggle had reached its final stage. Remaining in the arena were Lin Bao from Canglong Cave and Left Eye Blind from Famous Sword Society. Left Eye Blind wielded pure knife techniques with formidable inner strength and could even contend with Gui Gu Zi for dozens of rounds without losing ground; however, his blindness became a weakness that Lin Bao could exploit. Lin Bao's swordsmanship was decent but not on par with Left Eye Blind's; to win, he needed to take advantage of Left Eye Blind's lack of sight.
Left Eye Blind tested Lin Bao with a wave of knife energy aimed at him. Lin Bao dared not confront it head-on to conceal his strength and quickly dodged. Hearing Lin Bao's footsteps moving away, Left Eye Blind leaped towards him for close combat in hopes of ending it swiftly. Facing the deadly blade coming at him horizontally, Lin Bao swiftly raised his sword to block Left Eye Blind's ruthless attack. Left Eye Blind intended to distract Lin Bao with quick knife strikes while using a long staff for a sneak attack. However, Lin Bao had learned from Sima Qian's failure and would not repeat that mistake. As Left Eye Blind attempted to strike Lin Bao's lower body with his staff, Lin Bao was already prepared; he broke the staff with his short sword and then used both swords to create a clashing sound that disrupted Left Eye Blind's hearing.
Since Lin Bao's clashing sound originated from his own hands, Left Eye Blind instinctively directed his knife energy toward the source of the sound. Lin Bao could only defend with both swords but was forced back several steps due to his slightly inferior inner strength before finally stopping at the edge of the arena boundary.
Seeing this turn of events, Xia Zhouyi remarked, "Gui Gu Zhangmen, it seems that the life of sinner Duanmu Chong is now mine."
Gui Gu Zi replied, "The outcome is not yet decided; you may be celebrating too soon."
Lin Bao realized that creating distractions was futile; observing his surroundings led him to unleash sword energy in all directions toward the large tree in the courtyard to disrupt Left Eye Blind's hearing further. Disoriented by the noise, Left Eye Blind stood still waiting for Lin Bao's attack. While sending out sword energy in all directions simultaneously aimed at Left Eye Blind for victory, Left Eye Blind sensed changes in airflow around him and spun his knife handle to counter incoming sword energy; however, due to its overwhelming number, he was still caught off guard by two sword strikes that injured his left hand and drew blood while retreating defensively until he found himself near the edge of the arena.
With such a significant shift in battle dynamics occurring, Gui Gu Zi laughed heartily and said, "Xia President, it seems you have no authority over sinner Duanmu Chong anymore."
Xia Zhouyi retorted with the words just spoken by Gui Gu Zi, saying, "Left Eye Blind has not lost yet, so don't celebrate too early."
Left Eye Blind knew that continuing to fight like this would undoubtedly lead to defeat, so he could only take the initiative to attack. He leaped forward to the center of the battlefield, swung his blade, and unleashed a wave of cold air from it. The signature move, Cold Blade Drinks Blood, was executed, instantly enveloping the area in chilling air, especially intensifying within the battlefield. Then came the cold blades, as the icy energy condensed into sharp blades that shot out in all directions. The spectators were forced back dozens of feet, while Lin Bao could not retreat; retreating meant losing. He had to muster all his Inner Strength for a desperate fight but was still injured by the cold blades and had no choice but to withdraw from the battlefield to save his life.
Seeing this, Buddha's Mysterious Mechanism declared, "This decisive battle is won by Left Eye Blind, and the fate of the sinner Duanmu Chong naturally falls under the jurisdiction of Famous Sword Society."
Xia Zhouyi said, "Everyone, thank you for your efforts. Someone, take Duanmu Chong back to Famous Sword Society."
Although everyone was unwilling, they had lost the match and could do nothing about it! Yi Junsheng remarked, "This Xia Zhouyi has actually restructured Famous Sword Society in such a short time; that's quite impressive!"
Buddha's Mysterious Mechanism replied, "Perhaps this is the true Famous Sword Society. The previous Famous Sword Society had no notable experts apart from Xia Zhouyi; now that experts have emerged from Famous Sword Society, they are making remarkable achievements."
Zhu Yingtai saw the members of Famous Sword Society escorting Duanmu Chong away and followed them. Shu Heng was injured but secretly trailed behind Famous Sword Society for revenge against his clan's enemies. The wounded Heroic Blade Eighteen Vengeances worried that Shu Heng might act recklessly and could only follow him. After everyone bowed to Dharma Master to bid farewell, they began to leave. Yi Junsheng asked Gui Gu Zi, who was about to depart, "Gui Gu Zhangmen, how do you plan to deal with Celibacy Master?"
Gui Gu Zi replied, "Harboring a sinner means that the entire Yun Yin Temple cannot escape responsibility. Abstaining from Desire is the Abbot; dealing with Abstaining from Desire alone is already a great mercy. You people should no longer plead for Abstaining from Desire. Lin Bao, let's go." With that, Gui Gu Zi left in anger.
Dharma Master said, "Calamity! This may be Abstaining from Desire's Calamity."
Abstaining from Desire emerged from Canglong Cave and arrived at a village where he revealed his true nature upon seeing women. In one household, a woman refused to submit; her husband defended her and attacked Abstaining from Desire. However, Abstaining from Desire was only interested in women and killed the obstructive man with a single palm strike, sending him to Nine Springs and leaving only regret for not being able to protect his wife.
He tore open the woman's clothing and let out an eerie laugh; this was a sign that a storm was coming. An unusual atmosphere filled the room, making it suffocating. The woman screamed for help, but Abstaining from Desire silenced her by covering her mouth with his own. With no way to call for help, she could only grasp Abstaining from Desire's arms desperately; her futile struggles were like an ant biting him—insignificant—and this only fueled Abstaining from Desire's desires further. Channeling his Inner Strength caused all his clothing to shatter instantly as he prepared to engage in illicit acts with the woman.
With another surge of internal energy, he emitted some heat. Affected by this heat, the woman's body began to sweat profusely. To prevent her from moving around wildly, Abstaining from Desire sealed her acupoints before revealing his true strength. After some teasing and tenderness, the woman let out a moan; Abstaining from Desire pulled away his mouth from hers only to see her face covered in tears—a sight that evoked pity. However, he was not one to cherish beauty; he would not hold back on how he released his pent-up desires.
Using his signature skills with overwhelming power and grace that shook the world, the woman could no longer endure such excitement and let out a long sigh—this was an unprecedented feeling. Looking at her deceased husband left her filled with shame as she suppressed her inner turmoil while tears of regret continued to flow.
At this moment, Abstaining from Desire recalled a past scene. During his last sordid act before entering Buddhism, Dharma Master intervened and stopped him with profound words that enlightened him as a lost lamb. From then on, he entered Buddhist Sect and diligently practiced; he even took on the name Abstaining from Desire—a name that constantly reminded him of that unbearable past. His sins washed away over time through repentance before Buddha had seemingly changed Abstaining from Desire's tainted life forever. Yet just as he reached spiritual fulfillment again, Abstaining from Desire fell once more into a sea of desires—this time even more intensely than before.
In the midst of the woman's cries, Abstaining from Desire stopped moving, put on the underground woman's clothes, and left the room indifferently. After Abstaining from Desire left, the woman shamefully committed suicide. The descent had already begun, and Abstaining from Desire's sins were incredibly deep. At this moment, several villagers came with iron shovels, hoes, and other farming tools to surround Abstaining from Desire. A voice was heard: "The sea of desire has no end; the Buddhist Sect cannot contain me!" Then there was a loud crash, and Abstaining from Desire's hands were stained with innocent blood once again.
Within the Famous Sword Society, Xia Zhouyi first had Duanmu Chong imprisoned in the dungeon. Left Eye Blind asked, "Why not kill this sinner immediately?"
Xia Zhouyi replied, "Now that Duanmu Chong's martial arts are completely gone, he poses no threat to the martial world. He is now a monk of Yun Yin Temple; if we kill him, it will provoke the dissatisfaction of Yun Yin Temple's Dharma Master. I took control of the sinner's fate precisely to prevent Canglong Cave from further elevating their status in the Martial Arts Alliance. We can wait for Duanmu Chong's enemies to come for him; this way, he can still be used as a bargaining chip."
Chen Liu gave Xia Zhouyi a thumbs up and said, "President truly has deep schemes; I admire you."
At this time, Zhu Yingtai arrived with Shu Heng and Heroic Blade Eighteen Vengeances. Both parties came to personally kill Duanmu Chong. Xia Zhouyi said, "As long as you can agree to one condition of mine, I will hand him over for you to deal with."
Gui Gu Zi returned to Canglong Cave and found Huang Li and two Azure Courtesans dead in a secret chamber, while Abstaining from Desire had already disappeared. It was evident that Abstaining from Desire had killed and escaped. Gui Gu Zi ordered many members of the Martial Arts Community to search for Abstaining from Desire throughout the martial world, regardless of life or death—alive to see him, dead to see his corpse.
The news of the killings spread throughout the martial world. Buddha's Mysterious Mechanism, Zhuge Kongming, Yi Junsheng, and others were searching for Abstaining from Desire within the Martial Arts Alliance, intending to bring him to justice. Efforts bore fruit when they found Abstaining from Desire in a village. Yi Junsheng was shocked upon seeing his appearance and exclaimed, "Celibacy Master, how could it be you?"
Tension filled the air. What would happen when the Martial Arts Community confronted Abstaining from Desire? Zhu Yingtai and Shu Heng simultaneously approached Xia Zhouyi to demand Duanmu Chong's life. What kind of conditions would Xia Zhouyi propose in exchange?
