Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree

Chapter 928 338: Hel and Wuzhou's Clash—Can They Win? (Part 2)

...On the ancient road of Emperor Heaven.

Ji Jingqiu suddenly stood up, sensing the descent of the True Buddha by summons.

Hel, who had already reminded him, asked, "Has there been a change?"

"Yes, and in more than one place."

With a trace of spirit, Ji Jingqiu traveled with the Dharma Form projection that descended with the True Buddha, passing through various battlefields, and eventually arriving at Qian Chong's location.

At this moment.

On the various battlefields besieging Buddha Country, dozens of "suspected formations" suddenly appeared.

Despite having gained a slight advantage against Shi Zun in the contest for incense support due to the support of Nine States forces recently, temporarily boosting his power, the True Buddha found most of his strength now tied up.

"In the short term, the True Buddha will probably not be able to address matters on the side of the Great Universe," Ji Jingqiu said gravely.

Cooperation with the various forces of Nine States dictated that the True Buddha must assist each family's important disciples.

Currently, the Daoist No Heaven has used the Four Demon Followers as coordinates, leveraging the 'Void Attribute' of Gusu Star to link a passage leading to the depths of the Chaotic Abyss Sea.

However, if the Daoist No Heaven encounters a critical moment, the True Buddha—originally planned to protect him—might find it difficult to provide timely support.

Hel sneered, "That's obvious then; there's indeed an important clone of Wuzhou in the Chaotic Abyss Sea."

Ji Jingqiu detected something unusual from this statement.

Come to think of it, this conniving woman had mysteriously instructed him earlier to pay more attention to Nine States, especially the movements around Buddha Country, and to notify her once the True Buddha's Dharma Form was summoned.

Ji Jingqiu gradually realized, "You're suggesting that this is Wuzhou's deliberate move to keep the True Buddha occupied, preventing his aid to No Heaven?"

But soon, Ji Jingqiu frowned:

"But how did Wuzhou even know that No Heaven is my clone, and that in times of crisis, he would receive the True Buddha's support?"

Is this Wuzhou's special power, or has the latter already planted spies within the high ranks of the Heavenly Saint Lake, holding unique information channels?

Hel replied flatly:

"I hinted to Master of All Phenomena through 'Gavin' to test Master of All Phenomena's current situation."

"Whether Wuzhou is using the power of All Phenomena to trouble you or not proves that he doesn't want your Reincarnation Body to have any chance of support."

"Now it seems, there really is an important clone of Wuzhou in the Chaotic Abyss Sea, and he eagerly anticipates your clone's arrival, confidently certain he can keep your clone there."

"Moreover, the state of All Phenomena is indeed worse than I initially imagined…"

Gavin, the old Me of All Phenomena…

Ji Jingqiu looked with a peculiar expression.

At this moment, Lady La appeared so cunning and shrewd, making him feel unfamiliar.

This was more than just probing the state of the Master of All Phenomena.

It was also testing the tug-of-war between Wuzhou and All Phenomena.

At the same time verifying the realities and illusions of the Chaotic Abyss Sea…

Was this a move that could achieve multiple effects?

Ji Jingqiu secretly clicked his tongue, previously never realizing Lady La had such profound shrewdness.

Could it be his problem?

Lady La indeed had mentioned that all beings see her as the image they wish to see in their heart.

Ji Jingqiu humbly asked, "Do you think Wuzhou has fallen into your scheme this time?"

"You underestimate Wuzhou too much," Hel sneered, "Simply speaking of strategy, he is the greatest among the four of us. A piece of advice: to deal with him, don't use trickery, use open schemes, grandly and openly luring him into the trap!"

"To date, I've never seen anyone use intrigue to scheme against Wuzhou."

Ji Jingqiu pondered, "Now that the True Buddha cannot act, having lost a significant guarantee, should we delay this upcoming battle?"

"Why delay?" Hel retorted, "Now is the best time; Wuzhou thinks he's sure of victory, coincidentally, I think the same."

Ji Jingqiu's face twitched.

So it wasn't your clone that would suffer in the end...

"Wuzhou's clone, its strength shouldn't exceed the Heavenly Person level, right?" Ji Jingqiu inquired.

"Do you think, being at the same Heavenly Human Rank, you can win now?" Hel shook her head, "Your gap is too large, far beyond just the difference in Dao Power. Even if at the same level of Dao Power, crushing you would be no harder than crushing an ant for him."

Seeing Ji Jingqiu slightly frowning, Hel explained:

"The battlefield of this fight is in the Four Gods Temples, which is Wuzhou's home ground. Even with the pressure of the Great Universe's rules, he can still perform at the peak Heavenly Person level, a realm above yours, not necessarily weaker in Dao Power."

"Your Dao Power doesn't hold an advantage, and in terms of divine skills, it's even more difficult to say."

"The few divine skills you pride yourself on are far from being perfectly cultivated or comprehended. Even if at the same level, there are still many flaws and loopholes in the eyes of a true expert."

"Wuzhou embodies myriad forms, has mastered countless divine skills numbered in the millions; in the path of divine skills, at the Heavenly Person level, the only things allowing you to contend with him are your Supreme Method and Dao Establishment Divine Ability."

"There's no need to mention other aspects like vision."

After hearing Hel's analysis, Ji Jingqiu sighed, "Listening to you, it seems there's no chance of victory, where is your 'sure of victory'?"

"Naturally, in you."

Hel stated without hesitation.

"My previous analysis would be what Wuzhou also thinks. So he wouldn't mind me probing through 'Gavin', because in his eyes, without the help of that True Buddha, even if your clone carried the Heavenly Saint Lake's Supreme Method, there would be no chance of victory."

"And Wuzhou's favorite tactic is to seize others' clones, then turning from guest to host."

Ji Jingqiu pondered, "Is this the open scheme you're referring to?"

Suddenly.

Ji Jingqiu seemed to have thought of something, his eye twitched, and he said:

"You… you wouldn't want me to incite Karmic Fire and perish together with him, would you?"
