On the train, Black Shark Triton’s killer instinct surged, but the next instant, his gaze involuntarily fell on that mud figure god puppet.
Its stomach was shattered to more than half, revealing a meatball the size of a walnut.
“God’s…
God’s bones?”
Black Shark Triton was utterly shocked; this should be Divine Remains, but why would it be inside the belly of a mud figure god puppet?
Wait a minute!
Could it be that Nine Dragons Hall knew there was this thing inside the stomach of the taboo thing all along?
The employer for this mission to the Lost Coast was none other than Nine Dragons Hall.
That head of the hall had offered a hefty sum.
Black Shark Triton stared intently at that meatball, his face covered in ecstasy.
This was God’s bones, priceless, a valuable resource that all major organizations would go to any lengths to plunder!
If the Lost Coast had a piece of Divine Remains, its value would skyrocket in an instant, becoming a target that all parties would actively seek to ingratiate themselves with.
[The ingredient has arrived, and due to its strong body odor, it is recommended to char-grill it and add plenty of spices.]
Eater God’s culinary note.
Lin Baici turned his head, facing Black Shark Triton’s ferocious and greedy eyes.
“Get lost!”
Black Shark Triton roared, “It’s mine!”
Lin Baici didn’t back down; he stuffed the hem of his kasaya into his belt and raised the burning torch.
Muscle Buddha appeared in front of him.
“Don’t touch the God’s bones, and I will spare your life!”
Black Shark Triton glanced at the torch in Lin Baici’s hand, this taboo thing; he didn’t care about Lin Baici himself but was mainly worried that the boy would damage the Divine Remains.
Even losing a sesame-sized piece would be a huge loss.
“Get lost!”
Black Shark Triton scolded.
Lin Baici was still contemplating tactics when suddenly a crack appeared on that walnut-sized meatball on the ground, like the eye of a god opening.
A pallid eyeball emerged.
Swish!
The eyeball moved.
A terrifying spiritual pressure swept across the entire scene.
In that instant, both Lin Baici and Black Shark Triton felt their hearts tremble, nearly stopping dead, as they felt themselves to be meager and insignificant, like insects, being looked down upon by a god.
Thump!
Black Shark Triton’s legs gave out, and he instinctively knelt down, bowing his head, not daring to maintain eye contact with that eyeball, as if that were an act of presumption and offense.
Lin Baici stood still,
unmoved.
“Is this the eyeball of a god?”
Lin Baici’s thoughts churned like turbulent waves, a mess in his mind.
That pallid eyeball took a deep look at Lin Baici, then the crack closed, but Black Shark Triton was not much better off.
He felt dizzy, nauseated, like throwing up, his whole body shaking as if clutching a piece of deck in a 40-degree fever, struggling through a stormy sea.
“It’s the radiation from the God’s bones!”
Black Shark Triton knew his state was due to the horrifying radiation from the Divine Remains, having experienced it once before, though not as overwhelmingly as now.
He even felt he was about to die.
His bodily functions were rapidly deteriorating.
Couldn’t delay any longer!
Black Shark Triton glared at Lin Baici, fiercely bit the tip of his tongue, and forcefully spat out a mouthful of blood.
The blood did not hit the ground; in midair, it coalesced into several blood-colored sharks.
In a swoosh, like bullets, they sped towards Lin Baici.
Blood Shark Bite!
This was Black Shark Triton’s strongest Divine Grace, his trump card of survival.
As these blood sharks sped towards Lin Baici, they also rapidly divided, grew larger, and in the blink of an eye, they were over a meter long, thirty or forty of them.
Muscle Buddha swung his fists, intercepting.
But he only blew up three.
With a flick of their tails, the blood sharks easily dodged it, continuing straight for Lin Baici.
Lin Baici didn’t panic.
He quickly retreated, took a deep breath, and activated his Divine Grace!
A Buddha figure manifested behind Lin Baici.
The Buddha figure’s eyes were tightly closed, seated in lotus position upon a lotus seat.
In front of its chest, its hands were bound inside with interlocked thumbs, while the index and middle fingers of both hands stood erect and united, forming a mudra of truth.
Suddenly, a fine rain began to fall in the air, quickly wetting everything inside the carriage.
“What kind of Divine Grace is this?”
Black Shark Triton’s expression became severe, also filled with a tinge of terror.
When those fine droplets of rain fell upon the blood sharks, a flame appeared atop their heads, like oil lamps being ignited.
Black Shark Triton looked up, and although he couldn’t see anything, he knew there was also a flame above his head because he could feel the warmth.
It was the flame of life, the warmth of the soul.
“Damn, why does this guy seem unaffected by the radiation of God’s bones?”
Black Shark Triton noticed another problem.
The swarm of blood sharks had already rushed up to Lin Baici, one already opening its big mouth, biting his arm.
However, in the next instant, Lin Baici’s big move arrived.
The seated Buddha figure behind him suddenly exhaled a breath.
Floating Night Rain, Wild Buddha blowing a lamp!
Whoosh!
There was no raging wind, no flying sands or rolling stones, just a cool night breeze as refreshing as that on a summer evening.
But after being swept by this gentle wind, the flames on top of the blood sharks instantly extinguished, just like the flame of an oil lamp blown out.
Pop, pop, pop!
The bodies of the blood sharks shattered the moment their flames went out, dispersing into the air.
Black Shark Triton was completely numb.
This kid’s Divine Grace,
so strong!
Black Shark Triton’s condition was terrible under the radiation of the Divine Remains, and after witnessing this horrifying scene, he suddenly felt the urge to retreat, but it was already too late.
A breeze, brushed across his face, so cooling that Black Shark Triton couldn’t help but hum with pleasure.
Then the next moment, he crashed to the ground with a thump, breathless.
The flame atop his head, his life flame, had been directly extinguished by the breath of the Wild Buddha.
Lin Baici, holding a torch, prepared for battle, only to be stunned as Black Shark Triton crashed to the ground.
“Dead?”
The opponent seemed to have stopped breathing.
Was “Floating Night Rain, Wild Buddha blowing a lamp,” this Divine Grace, really that powerful?
[The creature’s bodily functions had already declined significantly under the radiation from God’s bones, which is why your Divine Grace was able to kill it instantly!]
The Eater God commented.
“You’re not planning on making me eat this thing, are you?”
Lin Baici’s head ached.
If God’s bones were still like the kind he had seen before at the Dragon Temple’s God’s ruins, akin to dried beef jerky, Lin Baici might have taken a bite, but this one was an eyeball and apparently still alive.
[Upon consuming God’s bones of this rank, humans will be immediately irradiated by God’s Ability, turning into a monstrous mutation, what humans call monsters.]
“What do I do now?”
Not having to eat the thing, Lin Baici sighed with relief.
But if he was honest with himself, there was still an urge to take a bite.
The Eater God did not respond.
Lin Baici did not expect the Eater God to have all the answers.
He quickly ran towards the corpse of Black Shark Triton.
Since he dared to use Taboo things, he must have brought the Black Tripod Bowl with him.
How else would he seal it?
Lin Baici did not know if the Black Tripod Bowl could seal God’s bones, but it had to be safer than just putting it straight into the Black Tripod Bowl, right?
Black Shark Triton was thoroughly dead.
He had a fanny pack.
Lin Baici undid it and opened it to find a compact wallet, a set of keys, and a cell phone.
Besides that, there were two cherry-sized black mechanical metal spheres.
“These must be the Black Tripod Bowls, right?”
On the mechanically-inclined black metal sphere, there was a button.
Lin Baici, holding the sphere, ran back to the Little Clay Man deity, smashed its belly open, and scooped out the ‘meaty ball’-shaped God’s bones.
He pressed the metal sphere against the God’s bones and pressed the button.
Click!
Click!
Click!
The metal sphere opened, releasing strips of black mechanical ribbons that instantly wrapped around the God’s bones tightly, making them look like a mummy.
Lin Baici briefly inspected them before placing them in the Black Tripod Bowl and then picked up the pine torch to completely smash the Little Clay Man deity.
The swirling yellow sand vanished rapidly.
…
“The facial features aren’t clear enough!”
“Personal characteristics are not distinct!”
The Little Clay Man monster was critiquing the figures baked by 18D.
“Fifty points, unsatisfactory!”
18D trembled all over, his mind completely dazed.
I’m going to die, aren’t I?
18D wanted to fight back, but recalling those unfortunate souls who were smacked to pieces by the Little Clay Man monster as if swatting mosquitoes, he lost all courage.
He simply put his hands over his head, closed his eyes, and played the turtle by shrinking back.
But after waiting for more than ten seconds, he wasn’t attacked.
Huh?
Could it be that I’m special?
The chosen one of fate?
This Little Clay Man monster is planning to spare me?
When 18D opened his eyes, he noticed that the red clay pit, the kiln platform, and the most terrifying Little Clay Man monster had all disappeared.
The disordered carriage and those passengers who had survived a disaster came into view.
“I’m back?”
18D was stunned and then he burst into tears.
Mom,
I want to go home!
I want to eat the braised pork you cook!
…
When Xia Hongyao and Ma Yuan rushed over, Lin Baici was getting used to the Divine Grace he had just absorbed from the ‘Little Clay Man deity,’ one of the Taboo things.
This Divine Grace was named ‘Red Rolling Stone.’
Lin Baici hadn’t figured it out yet and when he saw Xia Hongyao and the other person, he immediately stopped releasing God’s Ability, and the red clay Little Clay Man he had summoned crumbled into dust in an instant.
Divine Grace, a powerful trump card like that, obviously couldn’t be let known to others.
“Little Linzi!”
Xia Hongyao rushed over, full of curiosity, “What happened?
Why did the contamination of the rules end?”
Ma Yuan, being more meticulous and observant than Xia Hongyao, noticed Black Shark Triton lying on the ground at first glance.
“Dead?”
Ma Yuan was shocked and hurried over to check the body.
Did this young man kill him?
Surely not, right?
This man was one of the main members of the Lost Coast, incomparable to those wild God Hunters who fended for themselves.
“I got lucky and ambushed Black Shark Triton, killing him!”
Lin Baici shrugged.
“Did you really kill him?”
Ma Yuan was flabbergasted.
But why are there no wounds on this body?
What method did you use to ambush him?
It seems this kid has a strangely powerful Divine Grace.
“Ah?”
Xia Hongyao was startled, then burst out laughing, and heartily slapped Lin Baici’s chest, “Impressive, indeed the man I’ve set my sights on!”
Hearing this, Ma Yuan wanted to roll his eyes.
Xia Hongmian was such a cunning woman; how could she have a sister with the same intellect as Sled Dogs?
Are you two even blood related?
Don’t you have any doubts about what this kid is saying?
