Lin Yi easily defeated Shiva and his Divine Soldiers using the Divine River Song. When Chai Po tried to claim the Divine Artifact, Lin Yi challenged him to prove his worth by connecting with it directly. Despite his hesitation and Ruolan's provocations, Chai Po accepted, only to be overwhelmed by the artifact's power due to his arrogance.

In the previous moment, Chai Po was full of vitality, but suddenly he withered away.

Without using his Divine Power and Taichu to defend, his meridians and blood flow were invaded by the terrifying cold of the Nine Netherworlds in a single breath.

His rosy skin turned a ghostly blue and was covered with a thin layer of ice crystals.

The burly man curled up at that moment.

Click, click, click~

The clashing of his teeth resounded clearly in the silent city of the King of the Nine Netherworld.

Originally, Shiva’s composure had already collapsed.

Having reached the end of the road and even having his equipment snatched by a junior, Shiva was completely ignored by Chai Po, as if he didn’t exist, fighting over the very things that had been forcibly taken from his hands with the junior.

This desolation made Shiva feel like an utter clown.

But what Shiva didn’t expect was that the comical plot was far from over here; even the unlikely pair of Wolong and Phoenix Chick appeared, and someone embarrassed themselves in front of so many righteous and villainous figures, tossing their face aside.

"Hahaha, hahaha, you’re killing me with laughter, Chai Po, you really are my good brother, I’m about to die, and you’re still going out of your way to make me happy."

"Hahahaha, hahaha!"

Shiva’s hearty laughter ruthlessly whipped across Chai Po’s face.

If Chai Po were in a normal state at the moment, he would have surely stepped forward to teach Shiva the basic emotional intelligence of not revealing others’ shortcomings.

Unfortunately, the situation for Chai Po was disastrously bleak now.

Allowing the Yin Cold Power of the Nine Netherworlds to invade his body without defense led to extremely disastrous consequences.

Both the Divine Power and the Power of the Primordial were frozen, leaving him completely passive.

Chai Po realized his clownish stance, but he couldn’t make any response.

"Uh, big brother Chai, you don’t want it anymore?"

Hahaha!

Hahaha!

Amazing! What an incredibly exciting scene! Who would have thought that in one’s lifetime, an Upper-Rank God would amuse me so much?

Who would say otherwise, eh? I think, forget about the title of God of Chaos, just change it to God of Clowns instead.

Such mocking words echoed continuously.

Whether they were Divine Soldiers or Demon Slayers, they couldn’t bear it anymore and burst out laughing wildly, giving no face to Chai Po.

As one of the Divine Soldiers put it, having such a big shot cast aside their image to make us laugh is truly a rare opportunity in life.

It felt no different from a top capitalist of the 21st century causing a farce just to amuse normal people.

The biting sarcasm and scathing mockery were like heavy slaps on Chai Po’s face, making him want to crawl into a crack in the ground and be forgotten by the world.

The hatred for Lin Yi couldn’t be stirred at this moment.

To him, it seemed better to die with Shiva.

In that desperate moment, the Yin Cold Power of the Nine Netherworlds was completely drawn away.

Streams of black mist returned to the Divine River Hall as if summoned.

The frozen Divine Power and Taichu inside his body began to flow again, and the ice crystals on his surface completely disappeared, allowing Chai Po to return to normal.

Yes, it was Lin Yi who intervened.

The score that needed settling, Lin Yi had settled it. After this incident, none in the Dark Rising Organization would dare easily provoke Lin Yi again.

If Chai Po were to continue losing face any further, the grudge with him would be irreparably grave, which wouldn’t be conducive to the organization’s unity, would it?

"Chai, we’ve completed all the tasks we needed to, isn’t it time to end this farce? Continuing further would do no good to anyone."

Lin Yi put away the Divine River Song, walked in front of Chai Po, reached out his hand, and used his Gravity Manipulation Skills to draw Chai Po’s hand forward, and clasped it together.

Presenting himself with an opportunity to reclaim his dignity, Chai Po couldn’t help but cherish it.

He stood up in a daze.

With tens of thousands of gaze upon him, Chai Po dared not act big and immediately assumed a stance of having everything under control.

"Brother Lin Yi, your skills are truly unmatched. I thought as long as one let their guard down against the Divine River Song, they could subdue it. I never expected that obtaining it would depend on fate."

After a simple exchange of pleasantries, Lin Yi turned his gaze back to Shiva.

"Aren’t you regretting not killing me in the previous battle?"

What?!

Lin Yi had already battled Shiva once?!

With this revelation, not only Chai Po but even Ruolan felt their worldview being shattered.

From the beginning, when Shiva and Lin Yi met again, neither Chai Po nor Ruolan could imagine what had transpired between them from Shiva’s agitated emotions.

Now they finally understood.

No wonder Shiva got exhausted so quickly in the fight against Qin Zhu, it turned out not only Chai Po and Ruolan benefited, but Qin Zhu did too.

"Hehe, kid, you’re truly capable. If I had known the outcome would be like this, when I first met you, I would have gone all out and eradicated you, leaving you no chance to escape."

Lin Yi smiled slightly, with a thought he summoned his Lifebound Divine Artifact from his personal space—the shimmering Soul-Breaking Skill.

At the moment the silver light flashed in his eyes, Shiva could foresee his fate.

As for Chai Po and Ruolan, upon seeing Lin Yi bring out his Lifebound Divine Artifact, they couldn’t help but regard Lin Yi as being on the same level as themselves.

"Well then, time for you to depart."

A serene smile appeared on Shiva’s face.

Allowing the Soul-Breaking Skill to pierce his body, letting his Life Force and Divine Power drain away.

At the moment Shiva fell, his transparent soul was drawn out and absorbed into Lin Yi’s Soul-Breaking Skill.

Witnessing this scene, even the elder sister Ruolan couldn’t help but sigh, feeling she had underestimated Lin Yi.

It’s no exaggeration to say, in his youthful vessel was hidden such a seasoned soul, none would dare imagine.

"Alright, everything is over now."

"Divine Soldiers of the Upper Plane, do you plan to continue fighting, or shall we proceed battling against Dark Rising?"

"If you aren’t planning to continue fighting, I will announce to the entire Three Realms and Six Paths the deeds of All Celestial Divine Beings."

What?!!!

Chai Po and Ruolan’s eyes widened significantly.

Indeed, their worldview shattered once more.

Bringing Lin Yi to rescue Shakyamuni was just the surface of the task, the most crucial step was to have Lin Yi lose control of his body, helping Wo Zhiqi seize Lin Yi with the assistance of the higher-ups of the Dark Rising Organization, but Lin Yi didn’t follow their script at all.

Not only did he manage to complete the task of revealing the disgrace of the Upper-Rank Gods to the entire Three Realms and Six Paths, but he also became the biggest beneficiary of this operation.

But Shakyamuni was no more.

How could Lin Yi expose the ugly truth of All Celestial Divine Beings to the Three Realms and Six Paths now? Didn’t Shakyamuni already vanish before the mission even began?

[Heaven-piercing Mantra]!

As Lin Yi chanted each True Word, the golden Buddha light gradually appeared behind him.

An enlarged apparition of Shakyamuni began to manifest behind him as well.
