181: Chapter 181 The Buddha's might is overwhelming, converting the former master.

As the sound of the wooden fish echoed, a profound, distorted, and vast Buddhist Chant suddenly reverberated throughout heaven and earth!

Within the Buddhist Chant, the desperate wails of billions of living beings were intertwined, yet it also exuded a strange sense of holiness.

Behind Northern Evil, an immeasurably colossal phantom slowly descended.

It was a blurry buddhas shadow seated upon a black Lotus Pedestal.

The buddhas shadow had downcast eyes, its entire body a Chaos black that devoured everything, appearing sinister and oppressive.

However, it was clear that... this buddhas shadow was very illusory, not a true entity!

But even so, its appearance still caused the surrounding firmament to tremble and miles of Void Realm to crumble inch by inch.

The buddhas shadow's indifferent gaze directly overlooked the giant crystal skull.

This buddhas shadow was precisely a wisp of Lin Chuan's true Rule Ability, projected through Northern Evil as a medium.

While gazing at the crystal skull, Lin Chuan's consciousness panel suddenly displayed a series of information prompts:

【Old Master of the Skeleton!】

【Current Sequence Rank: 205.】

【Terror Level: SSS-rank third tier.】

【Rule Ability: Bone Spurs, Ossification.】

Looking at the prompts on the panel, Lin Chuan instantly grasped various pieces of information about the Old Master of the Skeleton.

At this moment, upon seeing Lin Chuan's buddhas shadow.

The Old Master of the Skeleton, who had been aggressive and high-and-mighty, felt the eerie green soul fire in its eye sockets suddenly contract.

It felt a deadly tremor originating from the depths of its Rank and Origin!

This power... surpassed the limit of a high-rank old master!

But as the Controler of the Chaos Void Realm, the third layer of the Nightmare World, and the Bone Domain... It still stubbornly maintained its facade.

"Transgressor..."

The Old Master of the Skeleton opened its massive crystal mandible, uttering obscure and ancient syllables, a warning full of bluster.

"This is... my territory... Retreat... or else..."

However.

Facing its bluster, Lin Chuan couldn't be bothered to pay attention.

"amitabha buddha..."

A Buddhist Chant spread, and Lin Chuan directly activated his own Rule Ability — Buddha Kingdom in the Palm!!

Above the sky, endless Chaos black light frantically converged.

In the blink of an eye, rules intertwined, condensing into a black Buddha Hand that blotted out the sky!

Within the Buddha Hand's palm, three thousand Buddha Kingdoms seemed to stand horizontally, as if carrying a magnificent and vast great realm, exuding world-shaking power!

Rumble!!

The black Buddha Hand, blotting out the sky, slowly descended towards the crystal skull with an unparalleled Aura that crushed everything!

The surrounding rule space, beneath this Buddha Hand, was annihilated like fragile soap bubbles...

"No!!"

The Old Master of the Skeleton, who had been stubborn just a second ago, felt an unstoppable Aura of destruction.

The soul fire in its eye sockets nearly extinguished from fright!

Without the slightest hesitation, it quickly submitted to Lin Chuan:

"Great... Existence..."

"Immortal Supreme... I surrender! I surrender!!"

An extremely absurd scene unfolded.

A majestic SSS-rank third tier high-rank old master actually let out a sharp wail, similar to a human begging for mercy.

The contrast was so great that it was both comical and eerie.

But Lin Chuan's actions did not falter in the slightest.

The sky-blotting Buddha Hand suddenly clenched, tightly gripping the massive crystal skull in its palm!

Immediately after, his Life-Reaping Sanskrit Sound Rule Ability erupted!

"na mo... Ami... tabha..."

A cold, bone-chilling, and profoundly sinister grand chanting directly poured into the depths of the skull through the Buddha Hand!

Sizzle!!

The Old Master of the Skeleton let out an extremely tragic howl.

Its true form was being forcibly torn apart, transformed, and reshaped!

Its eerie green rule fire, under the cleansing of the Buddhist Chant, was rapidly dyed with a rich, Chaos pitch black.

In just a moment.

The shrill screams subsided.

When the black Buddha Hand slowly dispersed, transforming into a sky full of rule light rain.

The crystal skull in mid-air had completely changed its appearance.

The surface of the crystal-clear skull was covered with strange black sanskrit characters.

The soul fire in its eye sockets had completely turned deep black and red, emanating absolute fanaticism and piety towards Lin Chuan.

"Great... My Buddha..."

"Your humble servant... your loyal Believer... Skeleton... salutes you..."

The crystal skull slightly lowered itself in mid-air, conveying its submission through the most humble rule fluctuations.

A high-rank old master was thus completely converted by Lin Chuan.

Originally, Lin Chuan had planned to devour the Old Master of the Skeleton. But considering that this guy was a 'faith taboo' with extremely high intelligence and rationality, Lin Chuan ultimately changed his mind and chose to bring it under his command.

Originally, Lin Chuan had planned to devour the Old Master of the Skeleton.

Firstly, devouring a high-rank old master wouldn't be of much help to Lin Chuan at the moment.

Secondly, Lin Chuan also wanted to use the Old Master of the Skeleton, this 'resident' of the Nightmare World's third layer, to learn more about the Nightmare World!

"Skeleton..."

In a thought.

Lin Chuan transmitted his will into the Old Master of the Skeleton's mind through his Rule Ability.

Soon, Lin Chuan learned some useful information from the Old Master of the Skeleton.

It turned out.

The location where the Base City established by Northern Evil fell was merely the shallowest edge of the Nightmare World's third layer.

This place, known as the 'Bone Domain', was precisely the territory Controlled by the Old Master of the Skeleton.

And the ruler of merely such an edge area of the Nightmare World's third layer.

Under its command, it actually possessed a total of six SS-Rank Taboo and more than twenty S-rank Taboo!

As for the low-leveleerie it created using 'Ossification' rules, they numbered in the tens of thousands!

This was the horror of the Nightmare World's third layer!!

Compared to the "Real World" of the Nightmare World's fourth layer, dangers were almost everywhere here!

S-rank Taboo, which could destroy a nation and cause great disasters in the "Real World", were nothing here!!

Upon learning all this.

Lin Chuan not only felt no fear but was instead incredibly excited!

This place was simply a perfect hunting ground tailor-made for him!

In the Real World, Advanced taboo above S-rank still required effort to find and contain.

But here, Advanced taboo were everywhere!

As long as he continuously devoured these taboo, he could frantically accumulate taboo value and reduction points!

At that time, his evolution speed would undoubtedly receive an unprecedented and terrifying boost.

Thinking of this, Lin Chuan directly instructed Northern Evil to stay in the Nightmare World's third layer, to preach on his behalf and collect more intelligence!

Lin Chuan had already decided to actively seek expansion in the Nightmare World next!

After arranging everything.

Just as Lin Chuan's rule phantom was about to dissipate and he was preparing to withdraw his consciousness.

The Old Master of the Skeleton suddenly transmitted an extremely important secret message to him.

"Great My Buddha..."

"The Nightmare World's third layer has been very restless recently."

"Several demigods are engaged in conflict."

"It is said that they are contending for something related to the True Realm."
