Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1303: Thousand-Handed Tathagata

Chapter 1303: Thousand-Handed Tathagata

Yenatai had no moment to dwell in shock, for Liang Yue had already rushed forward to launch her assault.

A chilling glow radiated from her long sword, while blue energy surged through her limbs and bones, snaking along the armor's crevices to cloak her completely.

[Will Qi Entanglement] dramatically boosted her power and allowed her to unleash will qi strikes over short to medium distances.

Fifty meters marked the reach of her sword's strike.

Liang Yue swung her blade straight at Yenatai without any pause!

Yenatai's reflexes were swift too. His left hand stayed raised before his chest, as thick golden radiance wrapped around his whole form.

Her sword slashed across, smashing fiercely into his shielding golden light!

The clashing mighty forces nullified one another.

From just a meter away, the sword's energy whipped by. Though it failed to breach his golden protective light, it demolished much of his barriers.

Alarm stirred in Yenatai's mind.

This foe facing him possessed tremendous might!

Even though her initial blow hadn't landed, Liang Yue showed no sign of impatience.

Reinforcement-type superhumans displayed the widest gap between their peak and weakest potentials.

They mainly amplified the user's physical form without showy special powers.

Yet, when wielded by a skilled expert, this boost to core traits could erupt into inconceivable might.

For a robust physique meant superior vitality, stamina, power, agility, and resilience.

Thus, Liang Yue's combat approach stayed straightforward.

Once she closed in on a rival lacking supreme defenses, she'd seize the chance for a fatal blow!

She could afford endless errors, but one slip from her enemy spelled doom.

Yenatai struck back in turn.

He chanted softly, "Tathagata - Thousand-Hand Manifestation!"

The ethereal Buddha image at his back abruptly transformed. Arms unfurled gradually to the sides, resembling a lotus in full bloom.

Moments later, a colossal Thousand-Hand Tathagata phantom loomed behind him.

Next to this gigantic Buddha specter, Liang Yue on the ground appeared minuscule like a mere bug.

Yenatai glared at Liang Yue and thrust his left hand outward with fury!

"Go!"

The Buddha figure discarded its serene look, shifting to a furious Vajra form, before innumerable fists hammered savagely at Liang Yue!

This onslaught resembled a raging tempest.

Cold determination filled Liang Yue's eyes, devoid of any dread. She lifted her long sword high, opting to confront the assault directly!

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Like a relentless rainstorm, the Thousand-Hand Tathagata's barrages hammered down. The terrain ahead rapidly cratered deeper.

The battlefield had already turned into a vast depression long ago. Spectators hurried to the rim, observing the clash below.

Gripping her sword two-handed, Liang Yue parried each incoming strike.

Those massive fists seemed overwhelmingly forceful, yet they were just manifestations of superhuman powers, not solid flesh.

A lone swing from Liang Yue sufficed to demolish them!

Her form moved like a streaking panther, weaving through the Thousand-Hand Tathagata's onslaught gaps as she struck back relentlessly.

Following the intense barrage, not a single wound marred Liang Yue's body.

As Yenatai's offensive ceased, a momentary lapse in his power created the ideal opening for Liang Yue.

She vaulted skyward, soaring to within fifty meters of Yenatai.

The Buddha radiance intensified sharply. Yenatai's enveloping Buddha light sliced relentlessly, causing Liang Yue's armor to flake off tiny metal particles.

Where the Buddha light passed, even the earth splintered into minuscule shards.

However, unless it wounded Liang Yue's core self, it failed to hinder her advance.

Undeterred, she thrust her sword toward Yenatai's frame!

Yenatai at last refused to gamble. He dreaded that Liang Yue could truly rupture his Buddha light shield this round.

With his right hand's vajra rod, he retaliated!

"Clang!"

A metallic clash echoed loudly.

The impact drained the color from Yenatai's face in an instant, nearly dispersing his golden protective sheen.

Hundreds of steps backward he stumbled. Blood poured from the split skin across his right palm's tiger mouth!

"With Buddha light guarding me, how can I still falter against her raw power?"

In disbelief, Yenatai gaped at his profusely bleeding right hand.

Meanwhile, Liang Yue surged onward in pursuit.

Yenatai drew in a deep breath, reactivating the Thousand-Hand Tathagata for a direct confrontation against Liang Yue.

His assault proved ferociously intense. Strikes from thousands of hands left no gaps, unleashing power that could seemingly drill through a planet, hammering down brutally on Liang Yue beneath!

However, Liang Yue's form brimmed with boundless vigor, clashing headlong with the onslaught.

"Is this your reliance? I'll shatter your Buddha statue first!"

Liang Yue vaulted upward, soaring swiftly while scaling one of the Buddha's arms. Her longsword slashed across the Tathagata's limb, instantly demolishing the golden radiance.

Yenatai spotted her aim and rapidly deployed other Buddha hands to intercept.

Yet these rushed strikes got effortlessly deflected by Liang Yue's sword arcs.

She spun like a gale, arriving at the Buddha's crown in a flash.

Gripping her sword with both hands, azure energy cloaked the edge. A thick torrent of force erupted over the Buddha's head, raging like a cerulean tempest!

"Hah!"

With no delay, Liang Yue swung her blade downward at full power, targeting the Buddha's head precisely!

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Yenatai swiftly directed the Buddha hands to merge overhead in a devotional clasp.

Thousands of Buddha hands obstructed Liang Yue's sword path.

This savage cleave sliced through hundreds of Buddha hands until its momentum finally ebbed.

Liang Yue's brow creased faintly as she switched her armor to flight, pulling away rapidly.

With a slash's energy depleted, her airborne state exposed her to counterstrikes.

True to form, as she evaded, hundreds of Buddha hands lunged savagely at her.

Witnessing the arena spectacle, even Zhang Yi's face grew somewhat stern.

"This dirty lama's ability is quite strong!"

He felt no anxiety over Liang Yue's safety.

On the contrary, Yenatai's power genuinely earned his admiration.

The technique fused offense and defense seamlessly, rendering both aspects tremendously potent.

Zhang Yi couldn't resist imagining: should this foe ascend to Epsilon level and challenge him directly, it would demand substantial exertion to overcome.

Little wonder the alliance reserved him for the finale. Among Delta-level superhumans Zhang Yi had encountered, his prowess placed him at the pinnacle.

"Can Liang Yue defeat him?"

Zhang Yi found himself intrigued.

Still, the battle's verdict stirred no concern in him whatsoever.

With Hua Hua on standby for support, after all.

Liang Yue might fail to overpower Yenatai alone, yet triumph in this clash was inevitable.

Activating her armor's capabilities, Liang Yue descended in a glide. Facing Yenatai ahead, she lightly knitted her brows.

That defensive might was overwhelmingly robust. Leaving aside the colossal Buddha, merely piercing Yenatai's shielding holy light posed a daunting challenge.

"Let's try from a different angle!"
