He wears a crown on his head and the royal armor of the King of Hell, which symbolizes the highest status in the underworld, and has a red face and fangs.
The roar from before came from it.
Of course, it's not quiet here either.
The sounds of chanting scriptures, incantations, prayers, and orders lingered in the air.
The source of the sound could not be found because they had been dead for thousands of years and even their bodies had long since decayed.
The will of the martyrs who suppressed the King of Hell thousands of years ago still binds the King of Hell tightly, preventing him from going to the human world.
At this moment, realizing that there was a new invader in the underworld, the King of Hell stood up.
A body taller than the mountains and rivers stepped on the corpses on the ground, leaving behind only a mixture of blood plasma, yellow spring water, bones and gravel wherever it passed.
It swung a machete in its right hand and a round shield in its left hand, and walked a few steps to Lingye.
Such a monster, even for Ling now, is too scary. If she hadn't been given the Light of Gaia, she wouldn't have had the courage to stand here.
But the humans back then were just flesh and blood, but they faced it head-on and even defeated it.
It's incredible.
The machete chopped down at the girl, but she was still thinking about other things until the extremely sharp ghost-head machete stopped above her head.
The nearly thirty-meter-long sword can cut through all tangible materials in the world, whether it is rock or steel.
But a thin layer of light curtain stopped in front of the knife, less than half a meter away, and it could not be cut down no matter what.
Once, the light of mankind trapped it for thousands of years. Now, the light of the planets also makes it unable to start.
This is the protection from the planet Gaia.
The next second, light burst forth. In this endless hell, a giant of light descended from the sky.
The light condensed into Gaia's body in the air. While the person was still in the air, the attack in his hand had already arrived.
Gaia Cut
One after another, light bullets hit the King of Hell, and the first one knocked him off his feet.
Gaia's Cut is not her highest-damaging skill, but its strength here is compared with 'Photon Ice Blade' and 'Quantum Streamline'.
It is not weak in itself. It can kill ordinary monsters.
She is no longer at a loss when facing monsters as she was when she first came to this world. As she unlocked medals one by one and gained the support of the warriors, she became more and more familiar with the Light of Gaia.
The light that Gaia entrusted to her contained within a power that had infinite possibilities.
Now, even if she puts aside all the medals, she can stand on her own with her own strength.
At least, if the Ultra Beast Baraba, who had once pushed her into despair, appeared before her again, even if she did not use the light of Aguru to unlock the V2 form, she would no longer be powerless to resist.
After Gaia's initial cutting success, subsequent light bullets were blocked by the monster's shield.
Ling was not surprised, she was just testing.
Taking advantage of the moment when the monster used its shield to block, she adjusted her posture in mid-air, and kicked down as she landed, hitting the monster's shield.
The whole body of the Yama monster, along with its shield, was kicked into the air and fell heavily into the mud of the underworld.
Gaia took advantage of the situation and did not show mercy, because she knew that the monsters wearing armor and carrying shields had amazing defenses, and this alone would probably not be enough to cause serious damage.
Indeed, the King of Hell was not seriously injured.
Beidou once said that super beasts have no sense of pain. But compared to super beasts, the monster in front of him is the one who truly has no sense of pain. Because it is not even a living thing, but just an aggregate of concepts.
Coming from the dark world, it is the law of death condensed by Zoda after destroying countless civilizations.
It can even be said to be immortal.
Ling did not use the Aguru Medal to evolve to V2, because that was time-limited after all, and she was not sure if she could destroy the monster in just a few minutes. She needed to find the opponent's weakness.
The previous Gaia cutting was a test, and the close combat at this time was also a test.
The earth shook and the mountains trembled. The entire Yellow Spring Kingdom became a battlefield of giants and monsters. Two behemoths weighing tens of thousands of tons fought each other here, causing the Yellow Spring water that corroded everything to flow.
The foul-smelling juice splashed everywhere.
If other creatures were here, they would have been corroded to death long ago. Even Taro from the Kingdom of Light could not ignore the influence of these foul-smelling waters.
The dirty underworld will corrode light.
However, its erosion is ineffective for both sides of the battle at this moment.
Monsters were born from the law of death, so they would not be corrupted by it. The same is true for Gaia.
Gaia, who wanders in the sea of souls, is the true destination of the soul. She is the beginning and the end of life, and she guards the reincarnation of all things.
The so-called Yellow Spring here is nothing but a fake thing born out of fantasy.
Ling also felt that it was dirty, smelly and disgusting, just like the garbage water that spread out of the garbage station on a rainy day. No one would want to step on it, even if it didn't cause any real harm.
She didn't care that she was contaminated during the battle.
Huhu——
The monster danced the knife in his hand tightly. It was a bit troublesome.
The monsters have weapons, so Gaia also needs a weapon.
The golden lightsaber was condensed by Gaia's light. This was originally Aguru's skill. After Ling used the power of the medal, he realized that the same could be done with Gaia's light.
So she learned it. It was so easy, like instinct.
The sword formed by the light has a very high energy level and is indestructible. Whether it is steel or soil, it is no different from tofu under the light sword.
But to her surprise, the lightsaber was cut off the moment it came into contact with the sword in the monster's hand.
Light is supposed to be an invisible thing, with the dual nature of wave and particle, but the knife fixes the material side of light and denies its nature as a wave when it is pure energy.
It can cut off anything that is material. This is an attack in the conceptual category.
After the lightsaber broke, Gaia was almost injured by the knife and had to take a few steps back to barely avoid it.
A bit troublesome, indestructible and invulnerable.
Gaia certainly still has many trump cards, and she hasn't used any of those medals yet.
The medal of Mother of Ultra can unleash life-saving skills, and may have a miraculous effect on dead monsters.
Aguru's medal can allow her to evolve to V2 or even Supreme, to achieve law-level quantum attacks, and the monster's armor and shield may not be effective.
The Medal of Nexus, needless to say, after the Meta Field pulls the monster into it, it will be suppressed in all directions, and it will be enhanced in all directions.
But Ling didn't use these either.
Because at this moment, a phantom of Ksitigarbha appeared in the sky.
If hell is not empty, I will never become a Buddha.
The Buddha statues that were cast in the first year of the Tianbao era and worshipped by the real Buddha in Buddhist temples came from the Tang Dynasty 1,200 years ago. The Buddha statues themselves are just cultural relics without any so-called blessing from ghosts and gods, but as an object of suppression, they condensed the thoughts of the people.
Human beings have gathered their hopes and persistence here.
As long as hell is not empty, there will be wars here forever, for hundreds or thousands of years. As long as the King of Hell is alive, the wars will not stop.
At this moment, the shadow of Ksitigarbha felt Gaia's will to fight against the King of Hell. That was also His determination for thousands of years.
So the next second, the shadow merged into Gaia.
Ling didn't refuse either.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva
No.
The real Him is the light that comes from human beings. The invisible faith condenses into entity through the tangible things.
We do not seek gods or Buddhas, nor do we seek the giant of light. Humans shine with their own power.
Chapter 396: Flowers Blooming on the Other Side of the Yellow Springs
What a wonderful feeling.
It feels quite different from the light energy blessing in the medal.
Gaia is still in her normal form, and has not evolved into V2 or Supreme, but——
Ling also looked down at Gaia's body, which was originally golden and red, and now shone with golden light. It was not the light of the giant star, nor the light of the earth.
It’s human beings themselves.
The will of those who gladly accepted death in the face of natural disasters that they could not resist no matter what was passed down from thousands of years ago to today.
To destroy the King of Hell, they have only one wish, and their only wish is to allow the human species to continue.
Lingye heard some voices. The voices of those people who rushed to the battlefield without hesitation thousands of years ago, their voices echoed in Lingye's heart.
Even if the body has been abandoned, even if the soul has been reincarnated countless times.
They had prayed to the gods and Buddhas before, but they did not respond. Now, the planet has indeed listened to their voices.
"I have received your wish." Ling also responded one thousand two hundred years late.
Gaia's body was shining, and the will of the planet merged with the will of mankind.
The King of Hell didn't understand what was happening, but he had no fear. He just instinctively spread death and hated the light.
He raised the dagger in his hand high and chopped it down towards Gaia. The sharp blade that could cut through all matter in the universe was caught by Gaia with one hand.
Ling didn't think much about it. She felt that she could catch it, so she caught it. The concept of cutting off everything didn't work. It was covered by a higher level concept.
Everyone just wants to live. Even if they die, they want the people they love and who love them to live on.
There's no reason why this shouldn't be possible, right?
Then came a punch.
The plain punch was blocked by Yan Wang's shield. The shield, which was invulnerable to swords and guns, cracked in the next second.
With a few crisp sounds, the cracks gradually expanded, and fragments of the shield began to fall off and break apart, one piece, two pieces, and then more.
When Gaia retracted his fist, the entire shield turned into powder.
"Someone once thought I was Izanami, but of course I'm not." Ling said, not caring whether the King of Hell could understand him or not.
She was just telling it to herself.
