Ch 141: Derivation Heaven Star Controlling Skill
Wen Fusheng’s eyes were half-closed, not even glancing at the palm strike.
His internal energy surged, and the rustling clothes immediately calmed down.
But strangely, his hair lifted slightly, and an invisible aura instantly dispersed in eight directions.
And the huge palm print in mid-air slowed down the closer it got to Wen Fusheng.
It was as if there was an invisible wall in front of him, obstructing his palm technique.
His figure even slightly stagnated, as if about to be frozen in mid-air.
That person’s face suddenly changed:
“Derivation Heaven Star Controlling Skill!!”
This skill is said to have been comprehended by Wen Tianheng, the ancestral master of Luochenshan Villa, in the Back Mountain Forbidden Zone of Luochenshan Villa.
After cultivating it to the extreme, once the mysterious skill is activated, the internal energy spreads to the surrounding forty-nine directions, forming an aura within a certain range.
As if within the heavens and earth, a new heaven and earth is created!
Even if stars fell here, they would be enveloped by this aura, like sinking into a quagmire, unable to escape.
The moment that person uttered the five words “Derivation Heaven Star Controlling Skill,” Wen Fusheng completely opened his eyes and glanced up at him:
“Scram!”
As soon as these words came out, a huge repulsive force slammed into him.
Not only was the huge palm shadow dissipated, but the person himself was sent flying backward.
Blood spurted uncontrollably from his mouth.
This was because Wen Fusheng showed mercy; otherwise, with the Derivation Heaven Star Controlling Skill combined with the Nine Heavens Starfall Finger, even if a star truly fell here, he would have been able to strike it down with one finger.
Now, he only used internal energy to repel him, without injuring his life.
As they watched that person fall, several figures leaped to him simultaneously, two of them reaching out to grab his shoulders.
The group then gracefully landed.
Wen Fusheng raised his eyes, sweeping over these people one by one, before slowly exhaling:
“Solitary Peak Chang Wei, Iron-Clad Marquis Mo Donglin, Huayang Sword Shao Ziheng, Thousand Buddha Palm Zhuo Ku, Green Robe Sun Xiaoxiang…”
Every time he said a name, Bian Cheng’s heart would jump.
Because these people were all top-tier experts in Nanling.
Solitary Peak Chang Wei was from the Blazing Fire Hall of the Three Halls, and was the second-in-command.
He was similar to Luo Cheng of the Divine Blade Hall, possessing both internal and external cultivation, strong and resistant, possessing the might of ten thousand soldiers.
Iron-Clad Marquis Mo Donglin was not only a skilled martial artist himself but also had a large following, with many experts serving under him.
Huayang Sword Shao Ziheng was a loner, but he obtained superb swordsmanship through chance encounter, wandering the martial world for ten years, experiencing over a hundred battles, and remaining undefeated.
Thousand Buddha Palm Zhuo Ku was the one Wen Fusheng had thrown out earlier.
He practiced Buddhist martial arts and had a similar experience to Shao Ziheng, having obtained the legacy by chance.
Unfortunately, his legacy was incomplete. 【He only learned three of the seventy-two Golden Light Palms,】 but the Golden Light Palm is extremely powerful. He integrated these three palms, earning him a place in the martial world.
As for the last one, Green-robed Sun Xiaoxiang… her experiences are quite unique.
She came from a wealthy family and was known throughout the martial world for her beauty, earning her name from her preference for green robes.
However, due to her beauty, she was targeted by an important person in the martial world who forcibly took her away.
This lasted for a year. Sun Xiaoxiang, unable to bear the humiliation, disfigured herself, causing that person to abandon her.
When Sun Xiaoxiang returned home, injured and ill, she did not receive the care and love of her family but was instead condemned for her dishonor. Her disfigurement further alienated her parents, and she was driven from her home.
She disappeared from the martial world until five years ago.
She learned incredibly high-level martial arts from an unknown source. Her return to the martial world was marked by the annihilation of that important person’s entire family.
Afterward, she returned home and drove her parents and relatives out, leaving them to starve on the streets without allowing anyone to help.
But she didn’t let them die… she just wanted to vent her anger.
This action caused dissatisfaction among many people in the martial world. Benevolence, righteousness, filial piety, and fraternal duty are virtues in any era.
Even if Sun Xiaoxiang’s parents were at fault, she should not have treated them this way.
However, those who tried to use this as an excuse to confront her were all defeated. She didn’t kill them, but only ruined their martial arts, leaving them to wander the streets like her parents.
Over time, no one dared to question her actions.
The name “Green Robe” once again became famous in the martial world, but last time it was for her beauty, this time for her ruthlessness.
None of these people are easy to handle.
Yet, five of them appeared at once.
Bian Cheng sighed inwardly, it was all the Heavenly Mechanism Order’s fault.
After Wen Fusheng named them one by one, his voice became even colder:
“Attacking immediately, are you… trying to die!?”
As soon as he said this, Sun Xiaoxiang was the first to speak.
She still liked to wear green robes, but now she wore a green mask, and the edges of the mask showed traces of knife wounds.
She calmly said:
“Don’t count me in, I’m here to watch the fun.”
Zhuo Ku sneered:
“We agreed to attack together, kill Wen Fusheng, and seize the Heavenly Mechanism Order.
“What do you mean now? Are you afraid of his Derivation Heaven Star Controlling Skill?”
Sun Xiaoxiang took two steps back and laughed:
“That’s baseless. It was you who said that, I didn’t agree. I’m just here to watch the fun.”
“…Yeah, first watch the fun, then whichever side gains the upper hand, you’ll stand by them, right?”
Shao Ziheng smiled:
“Miss Sun’s calculations are so precise, aren’t you afraid of offending both sides?”
“You’re offending me now, aren’t you afraid I’ll immediately side with Wen Fusheng and beat you black and blue?”
Sun Xiaoxiang sneered: “Don’t look for trouble, otherwise, I’ll make you face life and death.”
Shao Ziheng’s face darkened, about to speak, but Chang Wei stepped forward, looking at Wen Fusheng:
“Villa Master Wen, we have no intention of offending.
“But now that we know Celestial Mechanism Valley is under Tian Xing Mountain, please make it convenient and hand over the Heavenly Mechanism Order.
“To avoid unnecessary conflict.”
“I can’t stand your deception.”
Zhuo Ku stepped forward and angrily said:
“Wen Fusheng, I respect Luochenshan Villa, even though I know your martial arts competition for marriage is deliberately delaying things, I’m willing to cooperate.
“But I didn’t expect Celestial Mechanism Valley to be right here!
“For all these years, I don’t believe Luochenshan Villa is unaware of this.
“Deceiving us like this, if you don’t give us an explanation… today, we will not only take the Heavenly Mechanism Order, but we won’t let Luochenshan Villa off either!”
“Alright, alright.”
Bian Cheng’s voice came from behind Wen Fusheng:
“They say the older you are in the martial world, the less courageous you become. I think it’s… the older you are in the martial world, the more shameless you become.
“The Heavenly Mechanism Order has nothing to do with you, yet you speak as if it were yours.
“Regardless of whether Villa Master Wen took anything from Celestial Mechanism Valley, even if he did, it was left by the Celestial Mechanism Recluse for Wen Family’s descendants, what does it have to do with you?”
“Bullshit!!”
Zhuo Ku roared angrily:
“Treasures belong to the virtuous, you little brat is talking nonsense, aren’t you looking for death?”
“You uncultured old bastard, you dare to call yourself virtuous? Don’t you have a mirror at home, or even urine? Why don’t you take a piss and take a look at yourself?”
Bian Cheng was eloquent; he had never been afraid of arguing with people for so many years.
Wen Fusheng stood in front of him, pondering for a long time before realizing that this was his daughter’s second senior brother.
Fortunately, his daughter was emotionally detached; otherwise, living with this senior brother every day… he didn’t dare imagine what she would become.
But at this moment, Bian Cheng became his spokesperson.
Once the crowd gathered, he would explain the situation in Celestial Mechanism Valley, take the Heavenly Mechanism Order, and lead them there.
However, he and Chu Qing had been worried that these people would die in vain due to the Heavenly Evil Cult’s schemes. Now it seemed that their kindness was excessive.
As the saying goes, good words are hard to persuade a stubborn ghost, especially Zhuo Ku… Wen Fusheng, relying on his status, couldn’t utter any curses. He was thinking of secretly giving him a finger strike later, directly killing this idiot.
Zhuo Ku was stunned by Bian Cheng’s scolding. Already injured by the Derivation Heaven Star Controlling Skill, his anger caused him to cough up blood:
“I’ll kill you!!!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to leap.
But before he could, two figures, one gray and one white, appeared in mid-air.
They pressed down on his shoulders from both sides, forcibly holding him down.
Zhuo Ku was furious, about to lash out, but upon seeing the gray figure, he swallowed his anger:
“Not a Monk, Master?”
“Not a Monk!!”
Wen Fusheng narrowed his eyes, looking at the gray figure.
Not a Monk was indeed a monk, a chubby, smiling, compassionate-looking old monk.
This old monk wasn’t simple. The Two Gangs, Three Halls, Five Sects, and One Villa represent the top powers of Nanling.
However, besides them, there were three more individuals who, based on their martial arts and reputation, could contend with these major factions.
These three were known as the “Three Immortals of Xiaoyao”.
They were a monk, a Daoist, and a scholar.
The monk was “Not a Monk,” the Daoist was “Yi Ge Daoist,” and the scholar was “Escaping Scholar”.
Their names were peculiar, and so were their personalities.
Not a Monk enjoyed playing in the world, drinking and eating meat, acting as he pleased, unbound by precepts.
Yet, he was compassionate, and many experts in the martial world had received his kindness, making his reputation far greater than that of martial world leaders like Wen Fusheng.
The old monk adjusted his sleeves, glanced at the crowd, then looked at the person who had pressed down Zhuo Ku with him, and smiled:
“What is your name, young friend?”
“Junior Zuo Wenchuan.”
Zuo Wenchuan clasped his hands together, saying: “Amitabha Buddha, I have met Master Not a Monk.”
Not a Monk nodded repeatedly:
“I held down this brute to prevent Wen Fusheng from killing him with one finger and wasting a life.
“Why did you also intervene?”
As he spoke, the remaining martial arts experts also arrived at the treasure building, gathering behind these several experts.
Zuo Wenchuan respectfully said:
“Junior believes that the matter of Luochenshan Villa is deliberate.
“Before the truth is clear, conflict should not be initiated.”
As soon as these words came out, whispers arose in the crowd.
Actually, everyone had this suspicion… the events were too coincidental. First, rumors of the Heavenly Mechanism Order spread, then the location of Celestial Mechanism Valley was mysteriously revealed.
The coincidence was too much, but Celestial Mechanism Valley was too tempting. Even though they sensed that this ‘sugar’ might be poisonous, everyone still wanted to taste it.
Not a Monk laughed loudly:
“Worthy of being Tianyou’s disciple, daring to stand up in this situation is commendable.
“But you’re right, I also heard about some things earlier. I came here tonight to inform everyone.”
Having said this, he looked at Wen Fusheng:
“Donor Wen, whether to live or die, let them decide, what do you think?”
Wen Fusheng looked at him and smiled:
“If you have something to say, say it.”
Not a Monk laughed:
“Good, everyone, I hear that Celestial Mechanism Valley has another mystery. There’s a cult called Heavenly Evil, occupying Celestial Mechanism Valley, using the news of the Heavenly Mechanism Order to lure everyone to Luochenshan Villa.
“And using Celestial Mechanism Valley to lure everyone into the valley to kill you.
“Whether you go to Celestial Mechanism Valley… is up to you!”
If Wen Fusheng said this, these people might not believe him; faction leaders would inevitably prioritize interests.
But Not a Monk was a virtuous monk, compassionate, with boundless Buddhist teachings.
He would never lie to protect Luochenshan Villa.
For a moment, the crowd looked at each other, somewhat hesitant.
“May I ask, Master, where did you get this news?”
Chang Wei stepped forward, clasped his fists, showing great respect to the monk.
Not a Monk smiled and shook his head:
“Cannot be said, cannot be said.”
“This…”
Chang Wei was speechless, wanting to ask further but not daring to be too forceful, he stopped speaking.
Zhuo Ku was unwilling:
“Whether it’s true or false, we’ll find out. Wen Fusheng, dare you hand over the Heavenly Mechanism Order!?”
Wen Fusheng reached into his bosom, and a token appeared in his hand:
“This is the Heavenly Mechanism Order!
“If you want to go to Celestial Mechanism Valley, you can come with me…”
“What?”
Zhuo Ku was stunned. He thought he had to fight to the death to get it, but Wen Fusheng just handed it over?
“You… why didn’t you take it out earlier, why did you have to fight?”
Wen Fusheng glanced at him coldly and said:
“Everyone, you heard what the monk said.
“To be honest, since the news of the Heavenly Mechanism Order came out, I’ve been investigating the truth.
“I thought these people were after me, so I used the ‘assassination’ as an excuse to lure them out.
“But I didn’t expect them to be after you… these days you’ve been plotting for the Heavenly Mechanism Order, while I and the Third Young Master have been saving your lives and investigating the people behind this.
“Celestial Mechanism Valley has mechanisms, deadly poison, and ambushes. The Third Young Master went ahead to crack them.
“I waited here for you all, intending to take the Heavenly Mechanism Order, lead you to Celestial Mechanism Valley, and join forces with the Third Young Master to break the evil lair!
“I never expected… that you would attack without asking questions, how ridiculous!
“Now the Heavenly Mechanism Order is here, will you follow me to confront the Heavenly Evil Cult!?”
Within Luochenshan Villa, Wen Fusheng spoke passionately.
Chu Qing in Celestial Mechanism Valley looked at the building in front of him, frowning:
“This is troublesome…”
