Chapter 322: Instigating a Rebellion
“Young master, what should we do now? We simply can’t gather 20 people. How are we going to defend the formation?”
“That’s right. Although I can call my friends who are relatively strong to come over and defend the formation, with their strength, they won’t be able to pose any threat to the opponent.”
“Moreover, the Central Plains Sect Alliance definitely won’t let go of a hard-earned opportunity. Who knows, they might even trick young master…”
“Quiet.”
Ever since everyone received the news, their reactions became more and more intense.
However, it was understandable.
There was only half a day left. It was simply not enough to find 20 core formation realm experts with decent strength.
“I’ll think of a way to solve this problem.”
20 people were indeed too many.
Although Victor had a few good candidates, he was tight on time. It was not enough for them to rush to White Dragon City.
There was no other way. They could only find another way.
Just as Victor was racking his brains, there was a knock on the door.
“Who is it?”
“Poor monk, Ming Hui.”
As soon as he said this, Victor instantly had a good idea.
“So it’s Master Ming Hui. Please come in quickly.”
Victor laughed loudly and hurriedly stood up to invite him. This made the others feel a little sour.
After all, when Victor treated them, it was not as warm as how he treated Ming Hui.
Regarding this, Victor was too lazy to explain. Their thoughts did not matter.
“Master Ming Hui, why are you here?”
Ever since Feng Sidao and the others arrived at Wei Zihan’s residence, they had spent their own money to buy some furniture. She finally had the bearing like a city lord’s daughter.
“I’m here to ask you something.”
“Ask away.”
“When you were confronting Jue Yuan, you used a Buddhist Sect secret art, Crossing River on Reed. I want to know who your master is.”
“I don’t have a master. I just had an epiphany after watching Master Ming Hui perform it. You can call it Crossing River on Reed, but in my opinion, it’s not the same.”
“This poor monk is stupid. Please enlighten me.”
“Master, in your opinion, the 72 ultimate skills of Buddhism had to be cultivated with talent and thorough cultivation. But in my opinion, this will only lead to a slight comprehension of the technique.
“Attaching spiritual energy to one’s body and communicate with heaven and earth is the essence of Crossing River on Reed. It is not difficult to achieve this.”
Hearing Victor’s explanation, everyone was extremely shocked!
One had to know that each of the 72 ultimate skills of Buddhism was a top existence. However, Victor was able to comprehend the most difficult Crossing River on Reed on his own. This talent was terrifying!
“Master, you don’t seem to believe me?”
“A cultivator shouldn’t lie. Benefactor, please don’t hide it.”
“Hehe, since that’s the case, master, why don’t you use a different ultimate skill. Within 15 minutes, I will naturally be able to comprehend it.”
Victor chuckled and slowly stood up to walk out of the manor and into the backyard.
“This place is more s.p.a.cious. Master, you can demonstrate it here.”
“In that case, I’m sorry.”
Ming Hui was indeed very curious about how Victor learned Crossing River on Reed. In order to verify his suspicion, he decided to cooperate with Victor.
“Benefactor, this move is called the Buddhist Lion Roar.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ming Hui suddenly shouted. The spiritual power in his body spread out along with the sound waves. Behind Ming Hui, it was as if there was a lion’s roar that resounded through the world!
Fortunately, before he made his move, Victor spread out his spiritual power and enveloped the inner courtyard. That was how he did not let the lion roar affect the others.
“Master, look!”
After downloading the full-grade Buddhist Lion Roar, Victor laughed lightly. He concentrated his qi in his dantian and circulated his spiritual power.
Roar!
It was the same roar, but it was obvious that Victor’s lion roar was even more magical!
The lion avatar no longer stood in its original position. Instead, it followed the sound waves and pressed toward Ming Hui!
“Master, you should believe me now, right?”
Before the power of the Buddhist Lion Roar completely erupted, Victor calmed his spiritual power, and the roar that resounded through the world returned to calmness.
“Benefactor… you are indeed different from the rest.”
Before Ming Hui came, he originally thought that Victor was also a secular Buddhist disciple, but he did not expect him to be monstrous and have the ability to learn at first glance.
“With your talent, Wei Bailiang did not lose unjustly.”
“Master, since you are already here, I have something I want to discuss with you.”
“What is it?”
“Master, do me a favor. After the matter is done, I can agree to one condition of yours.”
Since there were less than 20 people, then he would poach 20 people!
Ming Hui was naturally Victor’s first target.
Ming Hui’s relationship with Wei Bailiang was more complicated.
In short, Ming Hui was not Wei Bailiang’s subordinate. He was more like a guest. Just like Victor and Wei Zihan, they could help when necessary, but he would never need to obey her.
This was also the reason why Victor chose Ming Hui.
“Tomorrow’s compet.i.tion will be different. We’ll need to charge, but because we have too few people, we have no choice but to seek help from you, master.”
Victor was very satisfied with Ming Hui’s strength.
Compared to ordinary core formation cultivators, a disciple from the Northern Plains’ Buddhist Sect was obviously much stronger. Even if Ming Hui fought Jue Yuan, it was not impossible for him to win. It was more than suitable for him to defend the first formation.
Of course, Victor was not certain that Ming Hui would agree.
After all, Victor did not have anything that could move Ming Hui.
Unlike Wei Bailiang, who had a bunch of relics.
However, what surprised Victor was that Ming Hui actually agreed to his request easily.
Ming Hui’s answer to this was that Victor had a Buddhist root and hoped to befriend him.
Although Victor was skeptical about whether he had a Buddhist root or not, since he had already agreed, there was no need to think about those meaningless things anymore.
At this point, there were already five candidates among the twenty.
Ming Hui, Feng Sidao, Ren Pingsheng, Tie Zhan, and Zhang Huang.
Apart from Zhang Huang, everyone’s strength was above average. As long as the Central Plains Sect Alliance did not make a move, it would not be a problem to defend the formation.
As for the remaining 15 candidates, although it was a bit troublesome, Victor already had an idea.
“Master Ming Hui, there’s one more thing. I hope you can introduce me to Wei Bailiang. Tell him that I have a deal and ask him if he’s interested.”
Wei Bailiang’s and Wei Baizhuo’s subordinates were the first targets that Victor had considered.
First of all, Wei Baizhuo definitely would not want his second brother to steal the limelight. Victor was very confident in convincing him.
As for Wei Bailiang.
Victor believed that ever since Wei Zihan won the martial arts compet.i.tion, there would definitely be many people who wanted to change sides.
“Alright, I will inform Wei Bailiang when I return.”
“Then I will have to trouble master.”
Victor nodded and watched Ming Hui leave.
“Young master, do you really want to ask Wei Bailiang’s subordinates to help? Isn’t this a little inappropriate?”
