Inside the formation, Ling Yun faced an increasing number of black-robed figures.
"wrong!"
Upon seeing the face of the man in black robes before him, Ling Yun's expression darkened. This man had just been annihilated by him, yet he had reappeared shortly afterward.
"Haha..." the man in black sneered.
"You wouldn't believe it, would you? We've already absorbed the demonic energy. We won't die until the demonic energy is dissipated!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Yun's expression darkened completely. In the beginning of the world, there were three kinds of energy: Primordial Purple Energy, Innate Energy, and Demonic Energy.
Demonic energy is the most violent of the three energies. Absorbing demonic energy can not only enhance one's strength but also grant near-immortality.
With Ling Yun's current strength at the Integration Realm, it would take a great deal of effort to completely annihilate his opponent.
"Where did you find the demonic energy?"
Ling Yun asked in a cold voice.
"Want to know? Heh... Join my cult, worship the God Lord, and the God Lord will bestow upon you demonic energy!"
The man in black robes spoke with a smile.
Ling Yun fell silent, wielding the Xuanyuan Sword and relentlessly slashing at the black-robed man before him.
Anyway, with the Wood Spirit Witch Little Green providing a constant stream of spiritual power, she could wear down these black-robed men.
However, the more troublesome ones are the followers of the cult, who have completely lost their minds.
He kept charging towards Lingyun, repeatedly injuring him through self-destruction.
A Bao and his group, along with the worshippers from the Tianyuan Dynasty and the Yuanbao Merchant Guild, were firmly blocked at the perimeter.
While slaying the enemies around him, Ling Yun looked toward the location of the Golden Lion.
At that moment, the golden lion charged wildly, blasting a bloody path through it, before stopping in front of a huge crystal.
Crystal stones are the source of chanting.
"Stop him!"
Upon seeing this, the black-robed man's pupils shrank sharply, and a look of panic appeared on his face. If the crystal ball were shattered and the chanting stopped, billions of lives would no longer be under their control.
Once that happens, Ling Yun will be able to deal with them without any qualms.
The next moment!
Hundreds of men in black robes charged at Ling Yun to hold him back. At the same time, a dozen men in black robes rushed to the Golden Lion in an instant, preparing to blast the Golden Lion away and protect the crystal ball.
Upon seeing this, the Golden Lion's expression turned cold, and he immediately manifested his enormous true form.
Then, with its swollen belly, it unleashed its strongest lion's roar.
"Roar~"
The terrifying sound wave instantly blasted more than a dozen black-robed figures at the Integration Realm into ashes, and countless believers of the Divine Cult in front of them were also blasted into nothingness.
After unleashing its strongest lion's roar, the golden lion's aura was noticeably weaker.
Immediately, he raised his claw and smashed the crystal ball.
With a loud bang!
The crystal ball shattered with a deafening roar, and the chanting abruptly ceased the moment it exploded.
Apart from the man in black robes, all the other creatures looked bewildered. Their desires were slowly suppressed, and their eyes gradually regained their clarity.
Seeing this, the golden lion licked its paws and wiped the sweat from its forehead.
"It's finally going to end!"
The man in black robes was filled with resentment. Without the help of these believers, they would have been killed by Ling Yun very quickly.
The next moment, all the men in black robes looked up at Sima Yue's statue, their eyes overflowing with worship and piety.
"I offer myself as a sacrifice to welcome the resurrection of the God!"
The men in black robes jumped directly into the altar, offering their blood, souls, and demonic energy to Sima Yue.
At the same time, all the black-robed figures hidden in the shadows jumped into the altar. There were a total of six hundred people, all of whom were great cultivators.
Even though Ling Yun repeatedly shattered their bodies, the presence of demonic energy allowed them to successfully jump into the altar.
Seeing this, Ling Yun quickly shouted:
"withdraw!"
A Bao and the others immediately prepared to withdraw from the formation, for once Sima Yue was resurrected, he would be an incredibly terrifying being.
But then, in the next moment!
"hehe……"
A voice even more alluring than that of the Nine Heavens Fox rang in everyone's ears.
The sound emanated from the statue, and the moment everyone heard it, they were filled with a sense of worship and submission.
With a loud bang!
The statue exploded, revealing a woman in a white robe with delicate features and a divine aura standing proudly in the void.
"Believers, your God has returned!"
Sima Yue called out softly.
Instantly, the chanting began again, not from the crystal ball, but from the hearts of every living being.
The next moment!
All living beings knelt down in worship before Sima Yue.
"Welcome back, Great God!"
"We will forever believe in God!"
The power of faith from billions of living beings is enough to make Sima Yue invincible within this formation.
To weaken her power, you would have to kill all living beings.
The next moment!
Sima Yue looked down at Ling Yun with a holy smile on her face and a voice full of powerful seduction.
“Young man, it is you who forced my six hundred most faithful followers to sacrifice.”
"I could have cast you into eternal hell, but considering your talent, I am magnanimous. Follow me, and I appoint you as a missionary to expand the territory of my religion!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Yun's lips twitched. This Sima Yue really thought she was a god.
Then he looked at the golden lion.
"Recite the Heart-Cleansing Mantra!"
"clear!"
The golden lion immediately sat cross-legged, activated the Immovable King technique, and loudly chanted the Purification Mantra.
The Purifying Mantra can purify the desires in the hearts of living beings.
At the same time, Ling Shan also manifested his true form and recited the Good Sutra.
As the voices of the golden lion and the white qilin chanting scriptures spread, the eyes of the believers of the cult once again became blank.
The three chanting voices clashed fiercely.
The next moment!
Sima Yue said sternly:
"Believers, sweep away whatever hinders your desires!"
boom!
Her voice was more seductive than the chanting of scriptures, instantly causing the believer's suppressed desires to erupt violently.
Half the believers began to bombard the golden lion, while the other half rushed toward the Spirit.
The Golden Lion has the Fudo Myoo, which can withstand the attack for a long time.
Ling Shan is in a bit of a predicament. A Bao, Shangguan Hong, and others joined forces with Yuan Shan and the Yuanbao Merchant Guild to form a defensive array.
"I will tell you the profound meaning of Fudo Myoo!"
At this point, the Golden Lion did not hold back and taught Po and the others the profound secrets of Fudo Myoo.
Soon, A Bao, Shangguan Hong, Yan Ruyu, and Xiao Yanran erected the Immovable King Dharma Image to block the surging attack wave.
Ling Yun leaped into the air and gazed at Sima Yue from afar.
Sima Yue chuckled:
"Young man, in this world I am invincible and immortal."
Do not offer futile resistance, submit to this divine master!
Without saying a word, Ling Yun immediately used the Heaven-Slaying Sword Drawing Technique.
boom!
The explosive sword light, carrying the sword energy capable of annihilating everything, arrived in front of Sima Yue in an instant.
However, Sima Yue maintained a pure and holy smile throughout, showing no fear whatsoever in the face of Ling Yun's powerful sword strike.
She gently raised her right hand, extended her snow-white index finger, and lightly touched the sword light.
In an instant, the sword light shattered.
"Hehe..." Sima Yue laughed, "The power of faith is beyond your imagination."
After saying that, Sima Yue flicked her finger, instantly sending Ling Yun flying hundreds of feet away.
