Chapter 981: The Fisherman Benefits

Yinli Star outer space

This is an unprecedented chaotic battle, with each side having thousands of Space Battleships and thousands of skilled fighters, all mingling together, fighting within a battlefield spanning a hundred thousand miles.

Many Space Battleships’ cameras and radars have been damaged, making it impossible to observe the battlefield; all they see are streaks of light moving like meteors.

This is how the fighters adapt to the battlefield; very few dare to stay still in space, everyone has to keep moving at high speed, even taking irregular paths to avoid the scanning and locking of the Space Battleships, reducing damage.

Liang Long, as the commander of the Space Battleships from Heavenly Court, brought many Droplet Robots, but the Droplet Robots were no match for Bodhisattva Hui Ming, who shattered several of them in succession.

"The heroes of the Buddha are truly remarkable, but sadly, I have already become an immortal. Otherwise, I would really challenge this Hui Ming."

Liang Long was excited to see Hui Ming; unfortunately, he could not join the fight. First, he lacked the power, as he was just a fragment of a soul. Second, he did not have the same status; if an immortal joined the battle, the true Buddha would not take it lightly, so it would be like not participating at all.

The Space Battleships that Liang Long gathered were not many, only a little over three hundred, not even one-tenth of all the battleships, as the Buddhist forces were too entangled, leaving him with no chance to regroup.

However, with more than three hundred Space Battleships in Liang Long’s hands, they still caused a terrifying effect. In less than half an hour of fighting, Liang Long’s forces destroyed over five hundred of the Buddhist Space Battleships and instantly took down several Buddhist cultivators.

As the Buddhist Space Battleships dwindled, Hui Ming focused on Liang Long, mainly because Liang Long’s ship was a Space Mother Ship, which stood out.

"Taoist Friend Ming Xin, come to help and defeat Hui Ming."

Liang Long calmly communicated with Ming Xin. As a top-level Transmigration expert, Ming Xin should have the strength to face Hui Ming. With his assistance, there was a chance to defeat Hui Ming.

Mahayana Star

The battle scenes on Yinli Star appeared before Lin Jiang through Liang Long’s perspective, showcasing the strength of the Buddhist faction once again.

"This is Hui Ming, the leader of the Buddhist faction in the Tianyuan Star Domain. He is indeed powerful."

Lin Jiang pointed at Hui Ming and said, "Not long into the battle, I have already seen Hui Ming defeat two Transmigration experts, and he has personally destroyed more than ten Space Battleships. He is incredibly strong."

"It is him. According to the news from Yinli Star, Hui Ming has defeated twelve top-level Transmigration Stage opponents and killed four, including Taoist Friend Di from Taibai Star and Taoist Friend Tang from Yinli Star. In the end, he met his fate at Yinli Star. He alone can stand against thousands, truly a hero of the Buddhist sect."

"The Buddhist sect has many talented people, there are many powerful practitioners."

Lin Jiang thought of many great monks from the Buddhist sect, all of whom were very powerful, much stronger than ordinary Transmigration Stage practitioners.

"Master, I am not sure I can win against this person. He is wearing biological armor; I can only aim to remain undefeated."

Ye Chen also answered honestly. Although he was strong among the Transmigration Stage practitioners, he could not be considered one of the top ones.

"Stone Emperor, when it is your turn, can you fight him?"

"It’s hard to say, but I am tougher than him."

Stone Emperor shook his head. Without having fought, he also did not know how powerful Hui Ming really was.

"Alright, let’s find a few more people to surround him."

Lin Jiang said, "Hui Ming is truly a hero of the Buddha’s realm. If Lin Jiang had not undergone Transmigration, he wouldn’t be completely sure he could defeat him; it would be a fifty-fifty chance."

"Master, from the current situation, both sides are equally matched, and it is hard to tell who will win. I wonder when the Heavenly Court will summon us to battle."

"Just wait. Without a third-party force getting involved, it will soon be our turn to take the stage."

Lin Jiang said, "The Heavenly Court still has many forces yet to join, and the same goes for the Buddha’s realm. They are wary of third-party forces, just like last time when the great battle ended mysteriously because a third-party force appeared."

If there were no third-party forces, they would definitely take the stage without escaping. In this battle, the losses for Mahayana Star are minimal, and the Heavenly Court will not allow them to just watch.

Everyone watched the war scene in the holographic projection, seeing the fighters from both sides fall one after another, bodies lying everywhere, and fragments scattered. They sighed at the fragility of life; even at the Transmigration Stage, they were merely pawns, just cannon fodder.

Just as both sides were locked in fierce combat, a ray of golden light shone down from the void onto Mahayana Star, followed by a Golden Armor Immortal stepping out, and Lin Jiang appeared in a flash.

"Where is the immortal Lin Jiang of Mahayana Star?"

"Reporting to the esteemed immortal, this humble one, Lin Jiang, is here."

"Lin Jiang, heed the command. I, acting on behalf of the ruler of the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Emperor, order the Mahayana Star Immortal Lin Jiang to lead his troops to Yinli Star to engage in battle and defeat the forces of Buddhism. If successful, Lin Jiang will be rewarded with one immortal treasure, ten pills, and fifty dao auras. If disobeyed, the immortal Lin Jiang will be punished, and his territory will be dismantled as a warning to others."

"Lin Jiang accepted the command."

Without saying a word, Lin Jiang accepted the order directly; no matter what happened, he had to maintain his stance.

"Execute it."

"Yes, my master."

Lin Jiang said, and the golden light vanished, followed by the disappearance of the Golden Armor Immortal.

"Ye Chen, gather the troops and prepare for battle."

"Yes, master."

Ye Chen accepted the command. The Mahayana Star’s troops had not disbanded and were on standby, and they quickly formed up.

"Leave three hundred people to prepare to attack Foyin Star. The others, you take to Yinli Star. Remember, do not get too involved with the Buddhist cultivators. You can work with Liang Long."

Lin Jiang reminded everyone. He would not go to Yinli Star. His Soul Fragment had already fought and was defeated. Heavenly Court would not say much, sending a few hundred more people was enough to explain his absence.

"Yes, Master."

Ye Chen received the order and immediately gave commands to activate the teleportation array.

Coordinating all the way, Ye Chen quickly arrived at Silver Star. The teleportation array leading to Yinli Star was not repaired, and Silver Star had already fallen. Ye Chen led everyone to open the Stargate.

After Ye Chen left, Lin Jiang also led three hundred people, bringing a lot of war robots, to open the Stargate and arrived outside Foyin Star. Foyin Star was not far from Mahayana Star, only about thirty light-years away.

When Blue Star had not ventured into interstellar travel, even going to Jiang Star, which was only eight light-years away, felt very far. Now, thirty light-years seemed quite close; they had truly changed.

By the time Lin Jiang arrived at Foyin Star, chaos had erupted. It wasn’t that Lin Jiang had made any plans, but all the Buddhist cultivators who had set out from Foyin Star had fallen. The Soul Lamps in many temples had been extinguished, which was enough to break their spirits.

For some reason, the news leaked, and then Foyin Star fell into chaos. Standing high above Foyin Star, one could see thick clouds of smoke rising.

Three hundred warriors charged into Foyin Star like three hundred fierce tigers entering a sheep pen. Foyin Star had no ability to resist, and one temple after another was broken into.

Previously, Cao Ying took control of Mahayana Star using a method similar to the power of Buddhist faith, but this mystical technique never reached its essence for Blue Star, so it was eventually given up.

The Heavenly Court has its own methods of conquest, and some of these methods are evil. They involve a lot of killing to capture the energy and resentment, to attack and pollute the power of the Buddhist faith, forcing the true Buddha to leave the star they control.

This method is, to put it simply, the technique of evil cultivators. However, the Heavenly Court does not care; taking a star always involves bloodshed, and each time it results in a sea of heads rolling.

After Lin Jiang’s spiritual power embedded itself in Foyin Star, his followers set up hundreds of banners across Foyin Star, releasing countless war robots. The terrifying slaughter began, as the banners absorbed and refined a large amount of energy and resentment, sending wave after wave of impact toward the true Buddha.

"You wicked one, you seek death!"

The true Buddha and Lin Jiang began to compete, both sides fighting for control of Foyin Star.

At first, Lin Jiang was not a match; he could only hold a single point. But as many Buddhist cultivators fell, the true Buddha’s presence weakened more and more, while Lin Jiang’s side grew stronger.

"You can choose to give up, or sacrifice beings for one last fight."

Lin Jiang said coldly, "The people Lin Jiang brought cannot be sacrificed. A true Buddha cannot leave a mark on them. But with the billions of people on Foyin Star, he can sacrifice them."

However, sacrificing living beings will bring serious consequences to the Buddhist faith. It goes against Buddhist teachings and can shatter the hearts of many true Buddhas. It can also destroy Buddhist principles. After all, Buddhism has always emphasized helping all beings, not sacrificing them. A few killings and sacrificing billions of people are entirely different.

The true Buddha did not answer or leave; he continued to resist. Lin Jiang ignored him. Three hundred Tao Achievers were enough to eliminate all the resistors on Foyin Star. If he killed enough, this true Buddha might not escape.

Lin Jiang also knew what he was waiting for. He was waiting for victory, for the Buddhist faith to win. If the Buddhists won on the battlefield of Yinli Star, Lin Jiang would naturally retreat, but unfortunately, he would not be able to wait for that.
