White light surged into the sky, and figures began to materialize within the radiance.
Observing this scene, all beings displayed expressions of sudden understanding. They had all investigated Lin Yu and were aware of his fusion technique, which could multiply his strength and even give birth to new abilities, making it incredibly formidable.
Even the insectoids were taken aback. While they could fuse, their fused beings only underwent morphological changes and a simple increase in power; no new divine abilities were born.
Lin Yu's clones, however, were different. Each of his fused clones possessed divine abilities that aligned with its concept. For instance, the giants could cleave the heavens, and the Candle Dragons could manipulate day and night, yin and yang, and so forth.
At this moment, hundreds of Candle Dragons and hundreds of giants appeared on the battlefield. Their forms were identical, seemingly indistinguishable, and in truth, there was no difference. Their abilities were the same, and even their sizes were uniform. For Lin Yu, it was simply a mob battle, so he saw no need to expend effort in shaping the forms of his fused clones.
The embodiment of wrath, sensing the aura emanating from the fused clones, was filled with shock and dread. "How is this possible?" he stammered, his mouth agape. As the embodiment of the Immortal Buddha's wrath, he had always possessed a perverse and cruel nature, looking down on all beings. Yet, now, he was astonished.
The Bodhisattvas and other monks behind him, witnessing his state, also appeared shocked. Since when did the embodiment of wrath show surprise? They all turned their attention to the fused clones and, upon sensing them, were greatly alarmed. They could not gauge the strength of the fused clones, implying that these clones might be stronger than them. And there were hundreds of them, each potentially superior to them. Even if they numbered in the thousands, they would be no match, as only a few top-tier Bodhisattvas possessed such strength.
Bodhisattva Duoxi approached the embodiment of wrath and whispered, "My Buddha, what shall we do next?" His question was simple: should they continue fighting, or should they reconcile and retreat? The former seemed impulsive, while the latter lacked a certain dominance, even appearing somewhat cowardly.
The embodiment of wrath roared, "Duoxi, cease your nonsensical talk and disrupting our morale. Prepare yourselves, and charge with me!" Since the embodiment of the Immortal Buddha had given the order, they had no choice but to prepare and charge forward.
The distance between the two sides was short. With their strength, the engagement occurred within a single breath.
RUMBLE!!!
Each of their punches and kicks could make space tremble and the earth crack. Eventually, some hidden deities could not bear to watch and employed their abilities to stabilize the surrounding space, preventing this part of the world from collapsing.
At this moment, Lin Yu's hundreds of clones were engaged in fierce combat with the monks of Great Brahma. A giant swatted away hundreds of Vajra guardians with a single palm and then kicked away hundreds of divine beasts. The Candle Dragons, not to be outdone, unleashed blazing divine solar fire from their eyes, incinerating hundreds of guardians in an instant.
Apart from the Bodhisattvas and a few Arhats, no one could withstand a single blow from the fused clones. This led to widespread chaos, and the battle became one-sided. Lin Yu gained the upper hand. Even the embodiment of wrath was surrounded by ninety fused clones, exchanging blows relentlessly, leaving the embodiment of wrath with no room to retaliate. He could only defend, and defeat was only a matter of time.
Witnessing this, the beings observing from the shadows fell silent. They knew Lin Yu was powerful, but they had not anticipated him being this strong. "Lin Yu's fused clones are already comparable to a God King's level." "No, still a bit short, but their sheer numbers can compensate for the lack of individual quality." "If Lin Yu wins this time, what will happen to Great Brahma?" "There will likely be an interesting spectacle. I am looking forward to it." "Hahaha~" "............."
The beings chattered amongst themselves, their words reaching the ears of the Great Brahma contingent, greatly displeasing them. Bodhisattva Duoxi roared, "All of you, shut up!" His voice was so loud that it made space tremble. The beings, hearing this, were startled and dared not continue their discussions. Although Great Brahma seemed to be at a disadvantage, what if they possessed hidden trump cards and could turn the tide? Even if Great Brahma lost, they dared not continue to mock them, for the Immortal Buddha of Great Brahma was still present.
They fell silent, and the scene became quiet, save for the sounds of battle on the field. However, the engagement was already nearing its end. Lin Yu's fused clones had sealed thousands of Bodhisattvas and Arhats into the Dimension Scroll. Only the embodiment of wrath was still desperately resisting.
Lin Yu shouted, "Still not surrendering? When will you?" The embodiment of wrath's fury blazed. "You shut up! I am merely a wisp of wrath from my Buddha. Killing me will only expend a wisp of my Buddha's wrath. You wait and see, when my Buddha descends, it will be your time to die." His entire being was alight with wrath, like a death god from hell.
But Lin Yu merely laughed. "If he could come, would he need you to?" This taunt made the embodiment of wrath's face turn crimson. It was true; the ruler of Great Brahma, the Immortal Buddha, could not enter Blue Star directly. He could only project his power, and the embodiment of wrath was an example, formed from fiery wrath. With this thought, he became anxious. He did not fear death, nor could he truly die, but he encountered someone like Lin Yu, who was unfazed by any pressure, and a bad premonition arose.
"You killed the Buddha's Son, Great Powerful Bodhisattva, and nearly a thousand monks. What more do you want? Do you intend to kill us all?" This statement, delivered with righteous indignation, caused many to ponder. Lin Yu chuckled coldly, "You repeatedly came looking for trouble with me, and you won't allow me to fight back? What kind of logic is that?" The beings, hearing this, also fell into contemplation. Thus, the "contemplation monsters" appeared, and everyone was lost in thought.
The embodiment of wrath, hearing this, roared, "If you had not killed the Buddha's Son and incurred the karma of Great Brahma, how would we have arrived at this day?" The death of the Buddha's Son was not something Great Brahma could ignore. If they did not retaliate and reclaim their honor, it would remain a permanent scar for Great Brahma. Therefore, revenge was the only logical course of action.
Lin Yu sneered, "Life and death are fated, wealth and honor come from heaven. When you venture out, accidents are bound to happen. Don't think that just because your faction is powerful, you can do whatever you please. I tell you, I will not let you do as you please!" The beings, hearing this, nodded in agreement. Most of them were not of high cultivation and naturally wished that those with higher cultivation would not trouble them, nor treat them like servants to be summoned and dismissed at will. Consequently, Lin Yu garnered more support.
The embodiment of wrath's fury surged, transforming him into a figure of pure flame. Lin Yu scoffed and waved his hand, declaring, "Vast Sky Sea!"
RUMBLE!!!
The sky split open, and a massive deluge poured forth. The floodwaters descended, sweeping across the land. "Die!" "Dimension Scroll!" Hundreds of more potent Dimension Scrolls descended, reducing the surrounding space in dimensionality. However, this was not a God King's technique, and the effect was not ideal. Seeing the embodiment of wrath resisting the dimensional reduction, Lin Yu was also somewhat surprised. "Interesting. Put more effort into killing him. I don't believe his energy is infinite; it will eventually run out."
