446: Chapter 359 Future Threat?_2 446: Chapter 359 Future Threat?_2 It was a location specially chosen by the Great Bright Buddha, one where human traces were rare, to serve as his escape route to the Mirror World.
He believed that as long as he retreated to this place, unless Lin Xing truly had divine Dharma Eye abilities and could scour heaven and earth within 25 days, he would never be able to find him.
But what Great Bright Buddha hadn’t anticipated, was that just as he opened the celestial gate and crossed over, the other side was already waiting for him.
“Lin Xing…”
At this mont, the Great Bright Buddha suddenly recalled the warning his opponent had given him during the battle beyond the skies, and a thought erged in his heart, “Can he predict my movents?”
“Only by foreseeing my movents in advance, could he possibly be waiting here for .”
At this mont, the Great Bright Buddha reflected on Lin Xing’s various abilities, going back to the past, foreseeing the future, leaping through ti…
the more he thought about it, the more he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Under a barrage of thoughts and the intense pressure they brought, he even blurted out such nonsense as ‘I was just about to look for you.’
And after uttering that useless phrase, Great Bright Buddha felt a strong sense of humiliation.
But just then, he heard Lin Xing say indifferently, “Relax, I didn’t co here to kill you today.”
“Not here to kill ?”
Great Bright Buddha was filled with disbelief, “Ridiculous, if you weren’t wary of my potential, if you weren’t afraid of gaining control of the fourth legacy after the great change in heaven and earth, why would you intercept imdiately?”
“Lin Xing, even now as the world’s number one master, do you still need to resort to lies and deceit to make lower my guard?”
Lin Xing listened to these words and simply smiled, saying carelessly, “Baldy, you don’t need to keep trying to provoke into sparing you.”
“I won’t kill you, simply because even if you gain control of the fourth legacy, you’re still no match for .”
“My real threat, my real opponent, has never been you.”
Hearing this, Great Bright Buddha, a top-tier powerhouse, felt a surge of anger, a deep fury at being so utterly slighted by the other party.
And the next mont, he heard Lin Xing continue, “Furthermore, provoking is useless.”
“Because if I, Lin Xing, truly decide to kill you, even if heaven and earth were to overturn, the cosmos reverse, nothing would change my mind.”
Listening to the other party speak, Great Bright Buddha felt that Lin Xing was ten tis more arrogant and overbearing than before.
He thought to himself, “Is this the influence of the battle beyond the skies on him?
Indeed, to mobilize such a terrifying power, his heart must be burdened with emotions far beyond what ordinary people can imagine.”
“Such an arrogant state of mind might be sothing I can take advantage of.”
While Great Bright Buddha was deep in thought, his true body had already reached a hundred ters away.
In fact, while conversing with Lin Xing, he had secretly cast a ntal veil, creating an illusion that he was standing still and concealing his real actions.
Although he was shocked at Lin Xing’s strength and understood that he was no match for Lin Xing in a direct confrontation, it was absolutely impossible for him to simply surrender and let the other party dispose of him.
Even if defeat or death were certain, he still had to resist with all his might because…
“There aren’t many strong enough in the entire world to vie for the fourth legacy.”
“And I am the only one who wishes to break free from the demonic fusion, to extricate myself from the evil spirits’ entanglent.”
“To create a world where the mighty don’t go mad and order isn’t in chaos, I’ve borne such a heavy burden for so many years, and I’ve finally seen a glimr of possibility.”
“If I were to die, there would be no hope left in this world.”
“The future would descend into a dark world belonging to madn…”
Thinking this, the fighting spirit that Lin Xing had suppressed in him reignited.
anwhile, on the other side, facing the ntal veil’s illusion with his back turned, Lin sighs, “Destiny truly is a helpless thing.”
“To be defeated here by , to be humiliated by , perhaps that’s your destined fate, Great Bright Buddha.”
“Even I cannot change it.”
As Great Bright Buddha fled faster and faster, and felt that no one was pursuing him from behind, a sense of surprise couldn’t help but rise in his heart, “Could it be that I have really deceived Lin Xing this ti?
Escaped from danger?”
At that mont, the scene before him made him pause briefly.
Just a short distance ahead, Lin Xing’s figure had appeared again.
Even the way the other stood and the surrounding forest remained unchanged.
Lin Xing spoke lightly, “Have you had enough running?
Can we continue our talk now?”
With gritted teeth, Great Bright Buddha changed direction and shot toward the east, but after a burst of frantic acceleration, he saw Lin Xing appear before him once more.
It seed that no matter which direction—east, west, south, or north—he fled, no matter how fast he sped, he would eventually end up back in front of Lin Xing, feeling an overwhelming sense of despair.
Seeing Great Bright Buddha stop, Lin Xing asked, “If it’s not enough, you can keep running.”
“Our conversation will require you to fully acknowledge the gap between us, so feel free to run so more.”
At that mont, Great Bright Buddha took several deep breaths, then suddenly shot up toward the sky, trying to fly into the heavens.
But quickly, with a loud thump, he felt as though he had slamd into an invisible wall, unable to ascend any further.
He looked down instinctively and realized there was no endless forest.
The forest where he had been was only ten miles in diater.
Beyond the forest lay an endless expanse of darkness.
And after hitting the barrier in the sky, the sky itself began to be consud by the darkness.
It was as if the entire world was reduced to just that small forest, standing like a solitary island amidst an endless void.
The next mont, the forest seed to fly rapidly towards him, Great Bright Buddha stood still, yet saw himself standing in front of Lin Xing once again.
“So it is…” Great Bright Buddha chuckled bitterly, “Have you sealed off the entire ten miles around?”
Thinking of the dark world Lin Xing had created in the outer layer of space, Great Bright Buddha shook his head, “No, is it that every blade of grass and tree within these ten miles is within your control?”
“I thought I was getting away from you, but from beginning to end, I’ve been in the palm of your hand.”
Lin Xing nodded slightly, and saw the trees around him bearing countless black runes on their surfaces, which flashed and vanished at his will.
He continued, “I’ve told you, I’m not here to kill you, and for the next 25 days, I don’t plan to eradicate any potential threats.”
“Because I haven’t seen any threats in the future of these two realms.”
“My opponent is not you.”
“And I’ve sought you out, Great Bright Buddha, only because I’m very interested in your potential future achievents.”
“Unfortunately, in the future I can see, you are destined to fail.”
“So my finding you is rely to see if I can defy fate, get to succeed in the future, and turn all the madn in this world back into sane people.”
