Chapter 200: Chapter 97: Transformation 1, 2

A general leads an army, few can excel with an abundance; a martial artist practices martial arts, likewise, excessive greed leads to inefficiency.

This principle applies equally to deities and Buddhas.

A small temple cannot accommodate a grand Bodhisattva; how can the earth withstand the incense of the Jade Emperor?

A mischievous novice kicks over the golden statue of the Buddha, yet sitting oneself down will not transform one into a new Buddha.

With the incense numbering in the millions, Li Xuan has long felt the limit, estimating it was reached in a place with tens of thousands of people.

This is not his limit, but rather the limit of the "God and Buddha characteristic" devoured by the "Rotting Buddha Corpse Rat".

However, as the incense reached its limit, the "Incense Fire Divine Realm" that Li Xuan can utilize also reached its limit. Afterward, even if the incense increases, it serves no purpose. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

These powers swirl within him.

He can remotely slash with a blade, spanning hundreds of miles, across mountains, using the "object-moving method" to decapitate the Black Mountain Tuo.

As long as the power of this incense can tug at the head of Black Mountain Tuo, its head will instantly soar, this is the principle of the Headless Buddha’s "head plucking".

However, the "Rotting Buddha Corpse Rat" is merely a Tier One mutant monster, and the span between each tier is massive, increasingly vast.

Li Xuan gazes at the terrifying Black Tuo and instinctively recognizes it as the Black Mountain Tuo, the source of demon blood he absorbed from those numerous pig dragons.

A casual drop of blood, even a bit of stimulation, can usher in a Tier One monster.

What tier is the Black Mountain Tuo itself?

Tier Two?

Yet the demon blood within him indicates "Incomplete Black Mountain Tuo demon blood is Tier Two", but the Black Mountain Tuo before him is not incomplete.

Summoning wind and rain, relocating mountains and overturning seas.

Li Xuan asks himself, he cannot achieve this.

Can he kill it?

Can he?

Regardless of the possibility, this is the utmost Li Xuan can manage.

Opportunities for him to strike are scarce.

Traveling at the speed of a rainbow consumes tremendous power, let alone utilizing such abundant incense.

State citizens, Esoteric Sect disciples, remnants, raise their hands high, worshipping with incense that empty shell of a golden Buddha.

Incense will eventually burn out, Li Xuan’s time is limited.

He cannot afford to miss.

Because if he fails, he must immediately pack up and flee northward with his family, disregarding all else.

He is like a gambler on a wild spree, eyes red, sitting at the table.

Yet the redder his eyes, the calmer he becomes.

Were this a story, with the atmosphere built up to this point, not even the greatest deity could escape death under his blade.

But... this isn’t a story, this is his reality!

With the power of incense, Li Xuan sees the island-like Black Tuo amid the black ink currents, watching as pig dragons scuttle from its body into the sea, witnessing the Great Yin frontline’s soldiers and Secret Martial Arts martial artists constructing a wall of flesh and blood with their bodies to resist these pig dragons.

If not for their fervent resistance, more pig dragons would appear in the State City.

This scene, is akin to a calamity of giant crocodiles.

’Perhaps, I can also summon wind and rain? As long as the opposing wind and rain were suppressed, I could push them back to the sea.’ Li Xuan suddenly thought.

However, the opposition is relocating mountains and overturning seas, the sea is with the Black Mountain Tuo, what can his wind stir up? Even if intense, could he possibly sweep the entire city populace into the sea?

’Perhaps...’

"Perhaps..."

Many thoughts flashed by, Li Xuan stopped pondering.

He infused his body with the demon blood of the "Fog Concealing Ghost Leopard".

With the power of incense, at the chilly seaside of spring, amidst heavy rain, atop high mountains, a breath of mist enveloped everything around in obscurity.

He then infused his body with the demon blood of the "Black Mountain Tuo", glanced at his "45 Demon Points", and again checked his attributes:

[Strength: 70/90]

[Agility: 46+10/90]

[Constitution: 109+84/109]

[Spirit: 40/90]

’Allocate points.’

Li Xuan began to furiously invest points.

At this moment, he’s unable to invest in the Spirit Attribute.

The Spirit Attribute requires time to manifest.

But right now, he needs to become stronger.

He invests 20 demon points into Strength, 25 attribute points into Agility.

With the fall of these points, he feels increasingly better.

At the same time, his appearance becomes increasingly bizarre.

Around him, crocodile skin, a long tail, a silhouette revealing glaring golden light, and when exerting power, wearing red-black flesh armor.

Li Xuan sweeps his gaze past the incense to the distance, shifting from the Black Mountain Tuo to the numerous pig dragons climbing ashore, assaulting the Great Yin army, devouring humans.

Maintained by a million incense, he didn’t immediately draw his blade, but with the incense, his body transformed into a dazzling rainbow light, arriving at the tumultuous battlefield of the East Sea coast.

The waves roar, pig dragons frantically tear at the wall of flesh and blood.

Li Xuan’s gaze fixes on those pig dragons, stepping onto the ground, only to hear a thunderous "boom".

The sea as if struck by a meteor, suddenly tumultuous, amid splashing waves, anything clinging to Li Xuan instantly turns to steam.

’Die!’

Li Xuan, now over three meters tall, a giant in form, spins, his massive hand like a rain tarp, bringing sonic booms and white steam, clutching a nearby pig dragon, and grasping it up.

The other fist follows directly.

Boom!!

The pig dragon, like swine assaulted by a truck at high speed, its body emits "crack" sounds of fractures and pulverization, blood flows from eyes and mouth.

Li Xuan grips its long jaws, fiercely tearing them apart, ripping it brutally in two.

A breath of high-temperature fire poison descends, the unburnable flesh instantly charcoaled, making the demon blood therein starkly visible.

Li Xuan discards the pig dragon’s corpse, crushing the demon blood in his large hand.

Hiss~~

A drop of demon blood floods into his body.
