Chapter 1043: Jason: I’m Great at Purification! (2)

Jason must be demonstrating considerable strength now, right?

Having such a powerful individual teach her, even the basic knowledge would far exceed others.

Involuntarily, the female detective starts to look forward to it.

Meanwhile, the wandering Onmyoji turned his attention entirely towards Jason.

That gaze was as if evaluating some unbelievable creature.

"To withstand the ’Demon Blade’ with mere flesh and blood!"

"No demon aura, just the vital energy of an ordinary person, this..."

"Vajra Body impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

The wandering Onmyoji’s gaze unconsciously shifted towards Tongshou Temple.

Inside the main hall of Tongshou Temple, Buddha statues stood tall.

Unlike the usual benevolent expressions of Buddha statues.

The Buddha statue enshrined in the main hall of Tongshou Temple wore an angry expression, with endless flames behind it, holding a sword in hand.

Immovable King!

The wandering Onmyoji naturally recognized this Buddha statue.

And precisely because he recognized it, he suddenly thought of the legend associated with ’Tongshou Temple.’

According to legend, the first master of Tongshou Temple was a wandering monk, active during the Warring States period, traveling through countries, continuously slaying demons and helping the impoverished.

Each time someone asked for his name, he would merely utter the word ’Immovable.’

Over time, people began to associate him with the ’Immovable King.’

However, in that era, this monk was referred to as ’Ming Wang’ Immovable.

Moreover, a temple was constructed where he was last seen.

Tongshou Temple!

And the Buddha statue enshrined within the temple also became the ’Immovable King.’

Because, at that time, people believed that ’Ming Wang’ Immovable was an incarnation of the ’Immovable King.’

But, in the Inside World, everyone knows that wasn’t the case.

The monk known as Immovable had no connections with the ’Immovable King.’

But his strength was undoubtedly formidable.

His most famous battle was when he faced an entire nation alone.

He stood there, letting the most powerful daimyo at the time lead ten thousand cavalry to charge at him.

In the end, Immovable remained immovable.

The flags of Wind, Forest, Fire, and Mountain fell to the dust.

And it was because of such a battle that ’Ming Wang’ Immovable became unimpeded across various nations.

And after he vanished, Tongshou Temple came under surveillance by various countries.

But absolutely no clues were found.

No information, no treasures.

And no so-called inheritance.

Ten years!

A full ten years, enough to make people give up on such fantasies.

It wasn’t until the second master of Tongshou Temple stepped out of this temple that things changed.

Just like the original ’Ming Wang’ Immovable.

The physical strength of the second Tongshou Temple master was incredibly formidable, especially the defense, frightening enough to make major demons retreat in fear.

However, after the second Tongshou Temple master, no other masters of Tongshou Temple demonstrated such era-dominating strength.

Even though every generation’s master of Tongshou Temple was strong.

Thus, rumors spread outside that Tongshou Temple’s strongest inheritance had been lost.

But now...

It might not be lost.

It’s just that the requirement for Talent is too high, and the subsequent masters of Tongshou Temple couldn’t learn it.

But Jason possesses such Talent.

Only this could explain why, after Jason arrived in the Silver District, the contemporary master of Tongshou Temple disappeared.

When they reappeared, Jason had already become the contemporary master.

It must be that the contemporary master of Tongshou Temple recognized Jason’s Talent and took him as his successor.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible for Jason to be so strong on his own, right?

If he were really that strong, Jason wouldn’t have been hunted down like a dog overseas.

"Ah, so that’s it."

The self-proclaimed enlightened wandering Onmyoji took a long deep breath.

Such a sigh naturally attracted the querying gaze of the female detective.

Facing the questioning from a detective supposedly in the same camp, the wandering Onmyoji did not conceal anything.

"It’s... ’Immovable King’s Body’!"

He whispered the name of the secret technique that had once dominated an era and oppressed another era.

The female detective blinked, somewhat unable to react.

As a novice entering the ’Mystical Side’, she couldn’t possibly understand what this term represented.

But as a Sword Bearer.

As those around who were watching.

They understood the meaning of these words.

"Impossible! Impossible!"

"How could it be ’Immovable King’s Body’!"

The Sword Bearer shouted loudly, unlike the previous disbelief, this time it was pure terror, so much so that the hand holding the sword trembled.

Jason keenly captured this tremor.

He suddenly exerted his strength.

Bang!

The slashed tornado was completely repelled.

Then—

Thump, thump thump!

In the midst of his heart’s rapid pounding, Jason, who had activated [Charge], charged towards the Sword Bearer.

The horrified Sword Bearer, with eyes wide open, was about to defend.

But then, a bright light appeared!

A dazzling bright light burst out from all over Jason’s body.

Instantly, the Sword Bearer was plunged into blindness.

"Ahhh!"

The pain in his eyes made the Sword Bearer cry out involuntarily.

And amidst such cries, the onlookers around began to retreat.

Immovable as a mountain, dazzlingly bright!

This was the description of the ’Immovable King’s Body’; its defensive power was already demonstrated, and the radiance was shown as well.

It was indeed the ’Immovable King’s Body’.

Originally, the disappearance of the old monk from Tongshou Temple was to instruct Jason.

No!

That’s not right!

It should be said that Jason’s reason for coming to the Silver District was connected to the old monk from Tongshou Temple.

Otherwise, what would an Exorcist be doing in the Silver District?

Even, those recent overseas incidents might have been created by the old monk from Tongshou Temple to facilitate Jason’s smooth arrival in the Silver District.

Even if he didn’t act personally, it must have been guided by the old monk from Tongshou Temple.

Thinking this, the speed of the onlookers’ departure increased even more.

It was essential to inform their own family or power about this news.

The once terrifying ’Tongshou Temple’ might be making a comeback.

The Sword Bearer also wanted to escape.

Even though at this moment, tears covered his face.

But still, the thought of fleeing did not diminish one bit.

He swung the Demon Blade.

Trying to hold the Demon Blade in front of him.

But Jason was faster.

The moment the other party was about to swing the blade, Jason raised his hand and caught the opponent’s wrist. With a twist and a shake, under the effect of Master-level [Barehanded Combat] [Grasping Mastery], the Sword Bearer’s wrist, elbow, and shoulder were all dislocated.

Clang.

The Demon Blade fell to the ground.

Jason swung his shoulders and slammed the Sword Bearer to the ground.

Boom!

The ground shook three times.

Amidst the sounds of bones breaking and tendons snapping, fresh blood sprayed from the mouth of the Sword Bearer.

Very quickly, his gaze became scattered, losing its vitality.

And Jason, bending down, reached for the Demon Blade.

"Wait!"

The wandering Onmyoji hurriedly intervened.

Jason frowned slightly and looked towards him.

A mountainous pressure made the wandering Onmyoji’s breathing cumbersome.

And the trembling deep in his heart made cold sweat bead on his forehead.

What’s going on?

Why does it feel like being targeted by a great demon?

The feeling in his heart made the wandering Onmyoji uncomfortable.

However, he hadn’t forgotten the words he was about to say.

"This is a Demon Blade!"

"It requires a special sealing technique, otherwise, your mind will be corrupted!"

The wandering Onmyoji said this.

"Sealing?"

"I don’t know how."

"But I can purify!"

"Very good at it!"

Jason said emphatically.

The wandering Onmyoji was taken aback.

Purification?

He even excels at purification!

No wonder he was the successor chosen by the Master of Tongshou Temple.

Involuntarily, a sense of admiration arose in the heart of the wandering Onmyoji.

Only, what puzzled him was why the lady nearby had a twitching at the corner of her mouth?

Was she hurt just now?

Just as the wandering Onmyoji was guessing and preparing to take out a healing salve, Jason, who was bending down, had already grabbed the handle of the ’Demon Blade’.

Subsequently...

Something unexpected happened!
