Chapter 571: Chapter 262 Data Refresh_2 Chapter 571: Chapter 262 Data Refresh_2 Seeing that Yan Fei did not speak, Tripitaka took it as a silent acknowledgment of his Chinese identity. He went on to say, “Destroyer, let me introduce myself first. My name is Tripitaka, and I come from the US CIA.”

Yan Fei had been chased by this Western monk before and really didn't know his name. Now, hearing that this person was actually named Tripitaka, he felt somewhat surprised. He asked, “Tripitaka, do you understand the true meaning of your name?”

Tripitaka's face immediately revealed a solemn expression as he replied, “I'm well aware. Once, Tripitaka embarked from China to India to retrieve the Buddhist scriptures, enduring hardships and difficulties along the way, all for the purpose of seeking the Mahayana sutras, which also made great contributions to Chinese culture. I have admired Chinese culture since I was young and aspired to study classical culture in China. From that perspective, I was also on a pilgrimage to China, similar to Tripitaka's quest. The only differences between us are direction and time. Hence, I renamed myself Tripitaka to commemorate the elder Tripitaka who traveled West for the scriptures.”

Yan Fei was taken aback, not expecting the Western monk's name to have such an origin, and this monk even had such admiration for China. However, he was happy that Tripitaka was elaborating on his background, as it perfectly fit his purpose of stalling for time. Thus, Yan Fei pretended to be curious and asked, “Tripitaka, you are very impressive, being a God-Level Expert. Did you also learn your Kung Fu in China?”

Tripitaka had just used the Great Handprint, and then the Golden Bell Cover Phantom appeared around him, which resembled Chinese Kung Fu. This prompted Yan Fei to harbor suspicions and ask.

Tripitaka brought his hands together, assuming the posture of an enlightened monk, kindly clearing up Yan Fei's confusion, “Indeed, I traveled thousands of miles to China, and my destination was the Shaolin Temple. At the time, the Shaolin Temple was looking to promote its image internationally. Coupled with the considerable amount of Incense Money I offered, the Shaolin Temple decided to make an example of me by assigning an elder monk to teach me exclusively Shaolin Kung Fu.”

Tripitaka seemed to fall into contemplation before continuing, “My master told me that although I was American, I was a once-in-millennium martial arts prodigy. No matter what Kung Fu I learned, I would master it in a very short time. Initially, he only intended to teach me some basic moves and then send me on my way. However, after discovering I was a martial arts prodigy, he imparted to me everything unreservedly, passing on all the secret skills of the Shaolin Temple to me.”

“I spent merely eight years to learn all of Shaolin Temple's unique abilities and became an Innate Peak Expert, recognized as the top expert of the Shaolin Temple. Then I left the temple and ventured into the world. After another eight years and by a stroke of luck, I finally broke the human limit and became a God-Level Expert. It's because I received so much from the Shaolin Temple that I present myself as a monk to the outside world, considering myself a legitimate successor of the temple.”

Liste to Tripitaka's story, Yan Fei found it somewhat absurd. The venerable Shaolin Temple, aside from Bodhidharma, had not produced any God-Level Experts in a thousand years. Yet, after taking in a Western disciple for show, this disciple became a God-Level Expert, and what's more, he was part of the US CIA. The irony was striking.

Having learned of Tripitaka's background, Yan Fei secretly heightened his vigilance. The fact that a foreigner mastered Chinese Kung Fu despite a vastly different cultural background proved that Tripitaka was extraordinarily unique. Yan Fei then felt that something was amiss; Tripitaka had been too quiet since arriving here, realizing that the cliffs were unscalable, not at all like his ferocious attack when he first appeared.

Feeling a vague unease, Yan Fei dispersed his Spiritual Power, which could now briefly extend beyond his body. Under the sensation of the Spiritual Power, he detected the surging Mysterious Power beside the distant Tripitaka, appearing to be arranging and combining in some amazing manner.

Yan Fei was shocked and hastily withdrew his Spiritual Power, beginning to observe Tripitaka with his eyes. He noticed Tripitaka's joined hands continuously changing positions in a manner that had a magical resonance. Yan Fei had been focused on listening to Tripitaka speak and, because of the distance between them, had entirely missed the fact that Tripitaka's hands were also in motion.

Tripitaka was definitely secretly preparing an attack on Yan Fei, an attack of tremendous force. Such an assault required significant time to prepare, and even a God-Level Expert like Tripitaka had to accumulate power for a long time. Fearing that Yan Fei would notice something amiss and disrupt his preparation with a machine gun assault, Tripitaka used the story of his background as bait to mesmerize Yan Fei, while secretly readying a lethal strike.

Realizing something was wrong, Yan Fei did not hesitate to open fire again, with his anti-aircraft machine gun unleashing a frantic spray of bullets at Tripitaka. Unfortunately, with the buffer of time, Tripitaka's preparatory work was complete. He suddenly smiled and bellowed, “Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms!”

As soon as the words fell, the space around Tripitaka blurred, then a massive Golden Dragon suddenly emerged. The dragon coiled around Tripitaka, shielding all incoming bullets and protecting him from any harm. Yan Fei's anti-aircraft machine gun discharged rapidly, running out of bullets in mere moments. Under the protection of the Golden Dragon, Tripitaka remained completely unscathed.
