 Chapter 2946: Once I Go, It Will Become Common 

The Buddha's heart collapsed, severely injured, and his realm fell. In his last moments, the Thousand Sunlight Buddha endured all the pain he deserved. In his self-doubt, he was enveloped by the power of death, his entire body decaying, as if he had truly fallen into the Avici Hell, dying in agony. Ultimately, his flesh rotted, his soul shattered, and he perished. 

Lu Zeng watched from the side, thinking to himself, "Mr. Lin's methods are truly terrifying." "To counter-kill a Six-Wheel Ancient Buddha as a Dao Sovereign of the Second Realm, if Mr. Lin reaches the Seventh Realm in the future, I'm afraid no one but the Three Ancestors will be his match." "Such a person is truly terrifying." Lu Zeng felt that Lin Moyu would inevitably become a figure like the Three Ancestors in the future. Entering the Great Dao realm would be no problem! Such a person cannot be offended; one can only try to befriend him. 

Suddenly, a golden light emerged from the corpse's blood. Lin Moyu's eyes narrowed slightly, and with a wave of his hand, he swept away the decayed flesh. A small, exquisite golden Buddha statue appeared in view. "What is this?" Lin Moyu looked at the golden Buddha statue, showing some confusion. He did not reach out to take it, remaining cautious. 

Lu Zeng landed beside Lin Moyu, "This is his Golden Body Relic." Lin Moyu searched his memory but found no information about the Golden Body Relic. Lu Zeng explained, "This is a secret technique of the Buddhist clan. The Golden Body Relic has three main functions. First, it's used for breakthroughs. Normally, one accumulates the Golden Body Relic, like storing power, to assist in breakthroughs, usually from Six-Wheel to Seventh Realm." "Second, it's used for inheritance. The Golden Body Relic contains the Buddha's heart cultivated throughout one's life and can be passed on to successors." "Third, it's used for resurrection. As long as the Golden Body Relic exists, they aren't completely dead and might return to the world one day." "However, the third function is just a legend; no one has truly resurrected. The first function is the most apparent and most used." 

After Lu Zeng's explanation, Lin Moyu understood the purpose of the Golden Body Relic. With a grasp, he took the Golden Body Relic into his hand, "So, he was close to becoming a Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddha." Lu Zeng nodded, "Pretty much, at least not far off." Lin Moyu smiled, "Fortunately, I killed him early. If he had become a Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddha, he would have been much harder to kill." A Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddha is akin to a Dao Sovereign of the Seventh Realm, with significantly increased strength compared to a Six-Wheel. At that point, who would kill whom would be uncertain. Of course, if Lin Moyu used his trump cards, a Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddha would still be insignificant. 

Lu Zeng said, "Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddhas are indeed hard to kill, and even if killed, it might not be their true body." Lin Moyu said, "Please explain, Senior." Lu Zeng was about to speak when the Golden Body Relic in Lin Moyu's hand suddenly emitted a brilliant light and flew out of his hand. Lu Zeng reacted quickly, pulling Lin Moyu back instantly. 

The Golden Body Relic radiated ten thousand rays of light, transforming into a giant golden Buddha. The giant Buddha looked at Lin Moyu and Lu Zeng with cold, indifferent eyes. Lin Moyu felt a chill all over, a sense of danger rising from his heart, but his intuition didn't warn him, so he knew there was no real danger. This feeling was probably from being watched by a powerful entity. After a glance, the giant Buddha quickly disappeared, and the Golden Body Relic fell to the ground, silent. 

Lin Moyu asked, "What just happened?" Lu Zeng, with a hint of helplessness, said, "That's what I was going to tell you. Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddhas rarely act personally; they create avatars to operate outside." "The Buddhist clan's avatars are different from ours. Their avatars can cultivate normally, just like ordinary people." "Once they reach a certain level, they can merge with the true body, pushing the true body further." "The Buddhist clan has many secret techniques, and this avatar cultivation method is one of them." 

Lin Moyu understood Lu Zeng's words, "Senior, are you saying the Thousand Sunlight Buddha I killed was actually an avatar of a Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddha?" Lu Zeng shook his head, "Not necessarily, it could also be an avatar of an Eight-Wheel Ancient Buddha. As long as the true body doesn't appear, it's hard to determine." Lin Moyu took a deep breath, "It's like hitting the small one and the big one comes, never-ending." Lu Zeng said, "That's how the Buddhist clan is, endless. Now our aura has been marked by that Ancient Buddha, and we don't know when he might come for us." "The Buddhist clan's actions are often more insidious than any other race; you must be careful." 

Lin Moyu said, "It seems I'll have to visit the Buddhist clan in the future." Lu Zeng was shocked, realizing Lin Moyu's thinking was different from ordinary people. A typical Dao Sovereign, knowing they were targeted by at least a Seven-Wheel Ancient Buddha, would be terrified and worried. But Lin Moyu didn't seem worried at all, even thinking about how to go there and fight back, asking, "Why are you targeting me?" Lu Zeng didn't know what Lin Moyu was thinking, but he said, "If you go to the Buddhist clan, be careful. It's said there are some strange things in the Buddhist realm." "I don't know exactly what they are, but perhaps the Three Ancestors do. You could ask them if you get the chance." Lin Moyu smiled, "Don't worry, if I go, I'll be well-prepared." 

He picked up the Golden Body Relic, "Does this thing have any other use?" Lu Zeng shook his head, "It's a treasure for the Buddhist clan, but for us, it's useless." Lin Moyu thought for a moment, "Maybe it's not entirely useless." With a thought, a Buddhist Lich appeared beside him. Lin Moyu handed the Golden Body Relic over, "Is this useful to you?" The Buddhist Lich looked at the Golden Body Relic, then reached out and grabbed it. The Golden Body Relic softened, turning into liquid and flowing into the Buddhist Lich, whose aura began to rise rapidly. Lin Moyu smiled, "See, it's not entirely useless." 

Lu Zeng was once again shocked, feeling that in all his years of cultivation, he hadn't been as shocked as he had been in the past half-hour. Lin Moyu's methods seemed increasingly mysterious and unpredictable to him. Suppressing his shock, Lu Zeng complimented, "Mr. Lin, you're amazing." Lin Moyu asked, "Senior Lu, does the guild sell Golden Body Relics?" Lu Zeng shook his head, "This thing has no value outside the Buddhist clan, so the guild doesn't sell it." "What a pity!" Lin Moyu sighed, showing a hint of disappointment. 

The Buddhist Lich's aura quickly rose, with another halo appearing behind it, becoming a Four-Wheel Ancient Buddha. But this wasn't the end; the Buddhist Lich's power continued to rise. Lin Moyu, feeling the increasing power of the Buddhist Lich, muttered to himself, "It seems the Golden Body Relic is a good thing. When I go to the Buddhist clan's territory, I should get more." Lu Zeng's mouth twitched, "Golden Body Relics aren't common in the Buddhist clan." Lin Moyu looked indifferent, "No problem, once I go, they'll become common!" 

Lu Zeng seemed to see a vision of the Buddhist clan turning into a sea of corpses and blood.
