Lin Jiang took command of allied space battleships and devised a "kite tactic" to lure Buddhist cultivators into a trap. This strategy successfully drew several dozen cultivators away from the main battle, allowing Lin Jiang's forces to surround and decimate them. However, a True Buddha intervened, warning the remaining cultivators, who then escaped. Undeterred, Lin Jiang decided to personally lure the enemy into a newly developed battleship sealing formation.

Unknown Star Domain

"Bang"

Lin Jiang fell from the teleportation, but the next moment, he disappeared again, followed by at least a dozen attacks landing in the same spot.

Thousands of miles away, Lin Jiang appeared and touched his body; his robe was already torn and ragged. Lin Jiang ripped it off, but he wasn’t completely bare because he was already used to wearing seven layers of robes.

Lin Jiang’s robe now was different from before; technological advancements had raised the level of top-tier robes several times.

The robe Lin Jiang wore now was the pinnacle of Blue Star technology, with raw materials sourced from demon race creatures above the Demon Emperor level, forged with high technology and supplemented by various top-tier materials. Each robe’s defense was more than ten times stronger than before, and similarly, their cost was extremely high, even beyond monetary measure. This level of robe was something Lin Jiang couldn’t provide to all high-ranking members of Blue Star; only a few people had one or two.

It was precisely because of the many ways to survive that Lin Jiang dared to be so reckless, taking risks in dangerous situations.

"Bang"

Lin Jiang disappeared once more; he wouldn’t stay in any place for more than three seconds because he was now the number one enemy of the Buddhist faction, a target to be eliminated.

"Taoist Friend Lin, it’s almost time."

"Taoist Friend Lin, stop playing with fire."

Even Ming Xin and Taoist Friend Da could not bear to watch. Lin Jiang had scavenged at least one or two hundred pieces of dao auras on the battlefield, and he didn’t spare even the cultivators. Now, even the immortals of the Heavenly Court couldn’t stand it.

"Taoist Friend Cao Ying, your man, truly is…"

An immortal shook his head at Cao Ying, saying it was too much, too much.

"Ahem, Taoist Friend, my man is not doing this for selfish reasons. He is trying to win this war; he is risking his life."

Cao Ying coughed softly, refusing to admit that Lin Jiang was doing this for selfish interests. Didn’t you see the Space Battleship nearby? That was for victory, for the Heavenly Court, for the immortals.

"Buddhist Domain, imprisonment."

With the help of Buddhist cultivators, they activated the Buddhist Domain to imprison Lin Jiang’s movements, making even the Spatiotemporal Mirror useless. The whole space seemed to become sticky.

"Taoist friend, lend me a hand, I will distract the enemy."

Lin Jiang sent a message to Ming Xin and the others; they would not ignore the situation and would bring people to help.

Lin Jiang was also trying his best to break through. He threw out countless talisman arrays from his storage bag. He had made these talisman arrays himself, and they caused the Buddhist Domain to shake continuously.

"Boom."

Lin Jiang then took out a big treasure, a nuclear weapon weighing five thousand tons. He was now a person who carried a big treasure with him. He had two or three dozen of these big treasures in his storage bag. After all, Lin Jiang’s storage tool was very large; no one in the Blue Star camp had a storage tool bigger than Lin Jiang’s.

"Kaboom."

The explosion of the five thousand-ton nuclear weapon directly destroyed the Buddhist Domain. The Buddhist Domain shattered, and Lin Jiang’s figure vanished.

"That’s enough."

Lin Jiang did not count how many dao auras he had collected; he just grabbed whatever he saw, taking his own.

After taking so much, the hatred has almost piled up, and the use of spiritual power has nearly run out; it’s about time to stop.

"Under the rule of the Heavenly Court, I, Blue Star Lin Jiang, challenge the bald monks of the Buddha; if you dare, come and fight me."

Lin Jiang directly communicated with all the nearby Buddhist cultivators, then vanished from the spot.

"The Grandmaster has given the order: kill him."

"Kill Lin Jiang and seize the Dao Auras."

"Those who seize the dao auras will achieve great merit, and the True Buddha will protect you."

Over at the Buddhist sect, many Bodhisattvas received orders, and many True Buddhas directly commanded to kill Lin Jiang, seize the dao auras, and made many promises.

In a war of this scale, no matter which side wins, they will not be able to take many dao auras for themselves; most of it will have to be given to the Buddhist sect or the Heavenly Court, and then the Buddhist sect or Heavenly Court will reward them based on their merits.

Of course, the rules are like this, but there is some room for maneuvering. For instance, in Lin Jiang’s situation, if the Heavenly Court loses and Lin Jiang takes the spoils, it would be very difficult to retrieve them, or they could be absorbed by Cao Ying during the battle, and she would have every reason to do so.

Dozens and hundreds of Bodhisattvas no longer cared about their opponents and directly chased after Lin Jiang, who rushed into the formation set by the battleship.

Just moments later, the Buddhist cultivators arrived.

"Activate the formation."

With the commander’s order, an area of hundreds of thousands of miles was instantly trapped by the formation. Such a large-scale restraining formation could not be seen on any planet, as it required an incredible amount of energy.

The entire space suddenly became extremely thick, not any better than the previous Buddhist Domain. All the Buddhist cultivators felt an immense pressure, not just mental pressure, but real, heavy pressure.

"Fire!"

The remaining battleships began to concentrate their fire, causing the movements of the Buddhist cultivators to slow down significantly. They consumed several times more spiritual power than before, but their speed was still less than it had been.

"Come quickly to rescue!"

Some Buddhist cultivators began to call for help. This type of formation was difficult to break from the inside, but on the outside, breaking just one Space Battleship might be enough.

"Intercept"

"Stop them"

Ming Xin and the others immediately began to desperately block them. With hundreds of Bodhisattvas here, if they were all wiped out, the Buddhist world would suffer a heavy blow.

Lin Jiang had already left the scope of the formation and met Cao Ying aboard the Space Mother Ship.

"Both storage bags contain dao auras. You take one to share with the other immortals, and you should digest the rest quickly."

Lin Jiang said, he wasn’t foolish; if he hoarded everything for himself, he would never be able to face anyone again, and no one would want to be his friend. So, share the good fortune, and if Heavenly Court asks later, they will face the difficulties together.

"I understand. Be careful, I can’t act."

Cao Ying nodded. She didn’t dare to act; otherwise, the Buddhist world would surely have to intervene, and that would cause chaos.

Cao Ying returned to the immortals. At that moment, the immortals were confronting the true Buddhas, while hundreds of Bodhisattvas were trapped, and the true Buddhas were anxious to intervene.

"Bald donkey, try to make a move. As long as you dare to strike, none of the Buddhist cultivators who came today will escape. We’ll just have to perish together."

"Go ahead, bald donkey! Four or five hundred Transmigration for seven or eight hundred Bodhisattvas, we won’t lose!"

"Bald donkey…"

The immortals were scolding loudly. As long as they did not follow the rules, if a fight broke out, all the disciples from both sides would end up dead. The Heavenly Court would not lose out; they already had fewer people.

Cao Ying did not speak, but quietly shared the dao auras. Now there were still around thirty or forty immortals, and nearly everyone could get about seven or eight shares of the dao auras. In fact, they had also been secretly absorbing the dao auras before, just in small ways. This time, Lin Jiang was too obvious.

Cao Ying herself swallowed at least seventy or eighty shares. She didn’t even count, just absorbed it wildly, without being careful. The grand rules inside would have to be absorbed slowly later; for now, she just needed to finish eating.

The Bodhisattvas trapped in the formation had all gathered together. They joined forces to resist the layers of firepower, trying to break free from the range of the formation.

At this moment, if a rule bomb were to drop down, they would surely die, but Lin Jiang held back and did not act impulsively.

"Increase the firepower, we must not let them escape!"

Lin Jiang said coldly, finally managing to lead them into the trap. If they escaped now, it would be a huge loss.

"Lin Jiang, deal with the Buddhist cultivator quickly; we can’t hold them off any longer."

Ming Xin communicated with Lin Jiang, telling him they couldn’t stop them anymore. The true Buddha had given other Buddhist cultivators a deadly order to rescue those Bodhisattvas, and they were attacking furiously.

"Break!"

Lin Jiang took action himself, pulling out the Sagittarius Bow, fully charging the Burning Life Secret Method, and shooting out dozens of arrows.

It was unclear whether the explosion was caused by Lin Jiang or the Space Battleship, but the gathered Bodhisattvas were shattered, and seven or eight dao auras fell down at that time.

"I’m coming!"

A master at the Transmigration Stage rushed into the formation, aiming to defeat those Buddhist cultivators.

"Formation Master, control the formation carefully; don’t cause any harm!"

"Never mind, give me the control bracelet."

Lin Jiang said that before, formations were distinguished by tokens, but now they have become high-tech and turned into bracelets.

Lin Jiang took dozens of bracelets, activated the Spatiotemporal Mirror, and entered the formation. For those at the Transmigration Stage, as long as they wore the bracelet, they could avoid being affected by the formation.

With cultivators, Space Battleships, and the pressure of the formation, the Buddhist cultivators inside the formation were quickly falling, and dao auras were constantly appearing.

Some Buddhist cultivators couldn’t hold back and immediately used themselves to worship Buddha, trying to blow up the formation. However, they failed; a formation of this level couldn’t be broken by a single or a couple of Buddhist cultivators self-exploding.

"Ancestor Lin, speed up! The energy consumption is too high. The formation’s time is counting down — five minutes."

A commander sent a message to Lin Jiang; all warships were sounding energy alarms. They were close to running out of energy. After five minutes, all warships would have to retreat from battle. They wouldn’t have the energy to fight anymore, and they would need major repairs afterward. Many parts would be scrapped after such usage.

"Five minutes is enough."

Lin Jiang replied, then charged in. Within five minutes, he was confident he could slay all the remaining Buddhist cultivators. This battle must be won.
