Chapter 271: Ascension to God
Whether on the shore or on the islands of the alliance, almost everyone there was a martial artist, and they were all shocked by this strike.
It cleaved the ocean in two with a single stroke.
What kind of strength is this?
"What... what's going on?"
"Which powerful figure is about to land on the island!"
"Is this the power of a terrestrial immortal?"
"..."
Countless people gasped in surprise.
Most of those who came to the island were martial artists at the seventh or eighth level, and they came from all over the world. Even these powerful individuals had never witnessed such a terrifying scene.
"This is something no terrestrial deity could do!" someone immediately said with great certainty.
"Who exactly is trying to land on the island?" Lu Jingdu was taken aback.
The female secretary exclaimed in horror, "With such strength, even Emperor Qin would have to give way!"
As time went by, countless martial artists from the island gathered there, all their eyes focused on the center of the ocean that had been cleaved open by a single slash.
While they were shocked, they were also very curious about who this deity was who could split the ocean in two with a single stroke.
An elderly man at the eighth realm said, "Judging from swordsmanship, could it be from the Kawashima family of the island nation?"
The Kawashima family has practiced swordsmanship for generations, and Kawashima Taro has honed his swordsmanship to the extreme, aiming to defeat his enemy with a single strike.
Unfortunately, a year ago, Taro Kawashima died in the Dragon Kingdom, defeated by the Dragon Kingdom's terrestrial immortal... Emperor Qin!
Not only did these martial artists gather, but the leaders of the Martial Arts Alliance also came together.
The person in charge was the old foreign man from earlier. He looked to be over seventy years old and his strength was unfathomable. He held a cane and slowly looked ahead.
A figure sped from the center of the cleaved ocean and arrived on the island in the blink of an eye.
boom!
As he landed on the island, his unparalleled aura forced many seventh and eighth-realm martial artists to retreat several steps.
Some martial artists with lower strength were even shaken to the point of vomiting blood.
The ocean behind them, which had been split open, began to slowly close again, as if nothing had ever happened.
"It's the Grim Reaper... Kawashima Kitetsu!" someone exclaimed.
"So it's Senior Death, long time no see." A land deity walked forward. He was a land deity from Russia named Uruguay.
Not all the terrestrial immortals went to the Dragon Kingdom; several did not.
"What?!"
"Is he a senior Grim Reaper?"
"My God! Isn't this supposed to be a martial arts gathering of terrestrial immortals? How come even the Grim Reaper has come?"
"Senior Death God was a powerful figure from the last century. It's said that he was already incredibly close to godhood back then. After so many years, he cleaved the ocean in two with a single strike. Could it be that he has already stepped into godhood?"
As the Grim Reaper's identity was revealed, everyone became even more terrified.
The Earth Martial Arts Alliance has held meetings more than once or twice; it happens every year. There are only a handful of terrestrial immortals on the surface of the world, and often they can't all get together to participate in this martial arts meeting.
But most of the time, there are three or four people who come to participate.
However, no half-step god-level expert from the last century has ever attended this meeting.
Unheard of!
Ultimately, this is just an annual martial arts gathering, and even the land immortals of the eight great powers might not all attend. But now, a half-step god-level expert has appeared!
Still a powerful figure from the last century... Death!
With the arrival of Death, this martial arts tournament is about to become anything but simple.
"Death has arrived..."
Lu Jing's pupils contracted: "It seems that, most likely, just as we guessed, the Earth Martial Arts Alliance will definitely take action against Qin Chuan!"
A hint of anticipation flashed in the female secretary's eyes.
Kawashima Kitetsu glanced at Uruguay, his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent.
"A mere ninth realm cultivator dares to talk about 'long time no see' in front of me?"
Uruguay was immediately embarrassed and dared not say anything more.
Countless martial artists gasped in shock upon hearing such domineering words.
A mere nine realms?
Oh my God!
The Ninth Realm is the pinnacle of martial arts, and those who attain it are known as terrestrial immortals. Currently, there are only eight terrestrial immortals in the entire world.
But now, in the face of death, they are like ants.
Moreover, faced with death's disdain, this land god of Uruguay didn't dare utter a single word.
Horror!
"Amitabha……"
And at that very moment.
A Buddhist chant rang out.
"Namo Amitabha Buddha... Namo Amitabha Buddha... Namo Amitabha Buddha..."
Immediately afterwards, the entire island seemed to be dominated by the Buddhist chants.
The chanting of the Buddha's name seemed to come from all directions, penetrating everywhere.
Ding!
A golden light descended from the sky.
boom!
A loud bang.
Countless people were thrown back by the force of the impact.
The appearance of the Grim Reaper had already made many people feel extremely uncomfortable, but the fall of this golden light was even more shocking.
Those present who were unharmed included the head of the Earth Martial Arts Federation, Uruguay, and Death.
They are all safe and sound.
It is completely unaffected.
The golden light quickly dissipated, and an Indian ascetic appeared before Death. He was shirtless, with broad shoulders and back, and taut muscles, like a cheetah, with wrist guards wrapped around his arms.
The Indian ascetic closed his eyes and clasped his hands together in prayer.
"King Kawashima, it's been a long time."
"So it was Bodhidharma." Kawashima Kitetsu spoke the same words, but he treated this Indian monk with considerable respect.
"It's been a long time, almost fifty years, hasn't it?"
Bodhidharma asked, "Benefactor Kawashima, do you still consider the suggestion I gave you fifty years ago?"
"Your sins are too great; convert to Buddhism."
Kawashima Kitetsu scoffed, "I have a heavy blood to draw? Then why didn't you come here to kill?"
"Amitabha..." Bodhidharma still clasped his hands together, "One of my disciples died in the Dragon Kingdom."
"It seems we share the same goal." Kawashima Kitetsu smiled.
With the appearance of Bodhidharma, countless martial artists were once again shocked.
Another half-step god-level being from the last century!
Whether it was Bodhidharma or Kawashima Kitetsu, they were both well over 150 years old, and no one knew their exact age.
But today they have all gathered at the Earth Martial Arts Alliance.
What exactly is going on?
The appearance of a Grim Reaper was already terrifying enough, but now an Indian monk who is halfway to the divine realm has arrived.
Can't believe it!
Soon, many people became excited.
The martial arts conference hasn't even officially started yet, but two half-step divine realm experts from the last century have already arrived.
What does this tell us?
This only means that this martial arts gathering will definitely involve some big moves!
"Boss Lu, is he also a half-step god?" The female secretary trembled. Although Bodhidharma's appearance was not as shocking as that of the Grim Reaper, he did not seem weaker than the Grim Reaper.
"Exactly!" Lu Jing nodded heavily.
The female secretary looked excited.
"Two near-divine beings from the last century!"
"Bring Qin Chuan here right now, and stop him from being so arrogant in front of us!"
