Horror Resurrection: I Evolve Starting with the Ghost Buddha

As they spoke, Zhao Linfeng took out a device and projected video footage of [Lingshan] onto Lin Chuan's golden statue of the Evil Buddha.

The image was shaky, seemingly affected by some kind of rule or force.

However, it is still clear that a majestic golden mountain is suspended in mid-air above a charred and broken ruin.

The mountain seemed to be cast in gold, radiating a dazzling luster under the dim sky.

The mountain is dotted with temples and towering pagodas.

Through the open temple doors, one can vaguely see countless figures sitting cross-legged inside.

There are arhats glaring angrily, bodhisattvas with lowered brows, and Buddhas preaching.

At first glance, the scene inside resembles the legendary "Pure Land of Bliss".

However, when the camera zooms in...

You can then see that the skin of those "Arhats" is already ulcerated, revealing maggots wriggling underneath.

Black pus and blood flowed from the eyes of those "Bodhisattvas," and greedy smiles lingered on their lips.

And those lofty "Buddhas" are actually deformed monsters pieced together from countless broken limbs!

What they chanted was not scripture, but a bizarre murmur that could cause one's reason to collapse and one's soul to fall into depravity.

Countless survivors of the Peacock Holy Kingdom are bowing and prostrating themselves with every step, like walking corpses, as they worship towards that sacred mountain.

With each step they took, their bodies became more shriveled, as if their life force was being sucked away from them.

"Mount Ling..."

"All Buddhas..."

Lin Chuan, witnessing this absurd scene, suddenly realized... the resurgence of terror had intensified even further!

As a taboo, Lin Chuan could sense that perhaps not long after, even more terrifying beings would descend!

A sense of urgency suddenly enveloped his heart.

This world is sliding into an irreversible abyss.

To stand firm in the coming era of terror, and even become the master of the game, the power of the rules he currently controls... is far from enough!

"Step down."

Lin Chuan's grand yet indifferent voice resounded in the main hall.

"Continue to closely monitor the movements of various countries!"

"Yes! This disciple takes his leave!"

Zhao Linfeng respectfully kowtowed once, then got up and backed away from the main hall.

The main hall was empty.

Layers of black light instantly emanated from Lin Chuan's Evil Buddha Golden Body!

A malevolent, twisted, vast, and dark divine power... continuously spread outwards!

The space was in constant turbulence, and chanting of Buddhist hymns filled the air.

"Amitabha Buddha... Hehehe!!"

"Since calamity is unavoidable, I will first thoroughly cleanse the Land of Rebirth on the other side and strengthen myself!"

Wow!!!

A ripple spread through the space.

Lin Chuan's [Teleportation] rule is activated.

Soon, his enormous golden statue of the evil Buddha vanished from the Temple of Rebirth.

At this moment, within the territory of the "Land of Rebirth".

Although the overall situation is basically stable, many taboos still lurk in some remote mountainous areas and abandoned urban corners.

For Lin Chuan right now, they are the best "supplements".

Ten thousand miles away from the City of Rebirth, in the western wilderness.

Beside a dry well, nothing grows for miles around.

A chilling aura emanated from the wellhead, and the faint sound of a woman weeping could be heard.

Lin Chuan's consciousness panel showed that an S-rank, second-tier 'Chaotic Forbidden' entity was entrenched here... [The Resentful Woman of the Dry Well].

boom!!!

When Lin Chuan's true form arrived, he wasted no time and immediately activated the [Buddha Kingdom in the Palm] rule!

A black Buddha's hand, obscuring the sky, appeared out of thin air and slammed directly into the dry well.

Under the power of Lin Chuan's rules, the earth trembled and the dry well collapsed.

Before a piercing scream could even escape, it was swallowed up by endless chaotic black light.

[Master has successfully devoured the S-rank, second-tier forbidden body!]

[Gained Forbidden Value Reduction: 1.5 points!]

After the [Well-drying Wives] were devoured, a notification popped up on Lin Chuan's consciousness panel.

He was very satisfied with this, and then immediately activated the [Teleportation Rule] again!

Whoosh!

The void trembled.

In the northernmost part of the Land of Rebirth, deep in the mountains.

A strange mangrove forest stands there, with every tree covered in withered human skin.

This grove of trees is also a forbidden place!

Its terror level is only S-rank, level one.

Its code name is... [Human Skin Forest].

As soon as Lin Chuan's true form arrived, he activated his own rules once again!

In an instant, the entire forest vanished, becoming nourishment for the forest stream!

Then, on the panel deep within his consciousness, a series of prompts popped up:

[Absorbing an S-rank, Tier 1 Forbidden Medium!]

[Gained Forbidden Value Reduction: 0.5 points!]

【…】

Lin Chuan's figure flickered continuously within the territory of the Other Shore Kingdom.

Each time it appears, a forbidden entity and a forbidden medium will disappear.

He cleaned up almost the entire territory of the other shore's rebirth country.

of course.

There was one place he didn't go to.

That is a Gothic church not far from the City of Rebirth.

There, the medium of the [Nightmare Master] lies dormant.

Lin Chuan doesn't plan to touch him for the time being!

Because, as things stand, items that retain the former master of Nightmare still have value for cooperation!

Even if we need to use the medium to deal with the Nightmare Master, we must make full use of it!

After all, the disaster spreading from Japan might still require His help!

Apart from the medium of the Nightmare Master.

Within the entire territory of the Other Shore Rebirth Kingdom, all forbidden entities, projections, and media, whether S-class or SS-class projections, were completely devoured by Lin Chuan!

When Lin Chuan returned to the Temple of Rebirth.

The taboo value reduction he received was more than enough!

On the consciousness panel, a series of evolution prompts popped up:

[This cleanup operation absorbed a total of thirteen forbidden entities!]

[Cumulative Taboo Value Reduction: 40 points!]

[Honorable Master, you are now ready to evolve and level up immediately!]

[Has the evolution begun?]

"evolution!!"

Without hesitation, Lin Chuan immediately began the evolution process.

The moment the thought crossed his mind, the evil Buddha's golden body underwent another qualitative change.

His evil Buddha-like golden body became even more solid and profound.

The black stone texture began to exhibit a black hole-like quality, instantly swallowing up any light that fell upon it.

Behind Lin Chuan's evil Buddha golden body.

The already twisted and eerie Buddha light wheel continued to writhe, eventually transforming into a huge sun wheel that was as black as ink and had pale flames burning around its edges!

The sun wheel slowly rotated, emanating a terrifying aura that caused all things to wither and the rules to collapse!

[Congratulations, Master! Forbidden level upgraded to S-rank, eighth tier!]

[Your rules have been greatly strengthened!]

[Required Taboo Points for the next promotion (S-rank, 9th tier): 100!]

"S-rank, eighth order..."

Lin Chuan felt the power of rules within his body that seemed capable of easily tearing through space, and even had a sudden illusion of "dominating all things".

This is him now.

If we were to encounter an existence of the level of [Rotten Firefly] again, we wouldn't even need to use the three layers of forbidden domains; we could easily suppress it with just the power of normal rules!

He even has the ability to fight against a true S-rank ninth-level opponent!

"Not enough."

"That's far from enough."

Lin Chuan did not revel in the joy of becoming stronger.

He knew perfectly well what the Bodhisattva statue in Chanzhou, what lay behind the gate of Japan, and what was in Kunlun Ruins...

Their levels are definitely above S-rank ninth level!

"We must accelerate our strategic planning."

Lin Chuan's will instantly connected with Li Shanyuan, who was far away on the border.

"Li Shanyuan".

"Disciple is here!"

Li Shanyuan's voice immediately echoed in my mind, filled with fervor and respect.

"Transmit my decree."

"Immediately launch the 'Nationwide Demon Taming' and 'Mass Production of Forbidden Masters' plans!"

"South of the Land of Rebirth on the other shore, there are thirty-six small countries..."

"There's no need for it to exist anymore."

"Send troops south!"

"I will incorporate all those lands, people, and resources into the territory of my otherworldly realm!"

"I need more believers!"

Lin Chuan's voice was loud, like the sound of a strange bell.

"Once the thirty-six kingdoms are unified, we will use this as a foundation to dedicate the entire nation's resources to selecting suitable candidates!"

"I intend to train three hundred A-rank Demon Tamers and... twelve newly promoted S-rank Forbidden Masters within a month!"

"Yes! I will obey the Buddha's command!!"

Upon hearing Lin Chuan's decree, Li Shanyuan accepted the order, his eyes gleaming with fanaticism.

Even if Lin Chuan hadn't said anything, he was already planning to take action against those thirty-six small countries!

Even in the Age of Terror, the core elements for measuring a power were still its vast territory and large population...

Just as Li Shanyuan was preparing to take action.

the other side.

Another ancient continent bordering Dongsheng Prefecture is the continent of Evide.

This place was once one of the birthplaces of ancient civilizations in the world, possessing a splendid culture and history.

But now...

This place has become a living hell.

In the endless desert, eeriness roams freely.

The forces of the Demon Hunters are divided, cults abound, and ordinary people are trampled and slaughtered at will like weeds.

On the border of a small country called "Land of Gold".

Amidst the swirling yellow sand, a man dressed in a tattered monk's robe and holding black prayer beads walked out.

His face was weathered, with stubble, but his eyes shone as brightly as the stars in the night sky.

The man was Qin Yao.

After leaving the Land of Rebirth, he crossed countless mountains and rivers before finally arriving in this chaotic land.

"Is this...Eved?"

Qin Yao looked at the scene before him.

Before a ruined city, several soldiers carrying old-fashioned rifles are grinning as they herd a group of ragged civilians into a deep pit teeming with venomous scorpions.

The cries and pleas for mercy from the civilians mingled with the soldiers' maniacal laughter.

"here……"

"It was filled with sin, and it was filled with...suffering."

Qin Yao gripped the Buddhist prayer beads in his hand, a trace of pity flashing in his eyes.

He was a follower of Lin Chuan and a practitioner of the Rebirth Sect.

He decided to establish a new branch of the Rebirth Church here.

He wants to make this desert bloom with the flowers of redemption!

"Amitabha……"

Qin Yao murmured a Buddhist chant.

Then.

He took a step forward.

hum! ! !

A strange and powerful force of rules erupted from his body.

"stop!"

A loud shout, like a thunderclap, resounded in front of the city gate.

Upon hearing this, the soldiers froze and turned their heads.

They saw a vast expanse of yellow sand.

A man who resembled a monk, like an unshakeable mountain, pressed down on them step by step.

"Who are you?! How dare you meddle in my business?!"

A soldier mustered his courage and shouted.

Qin Yao did not answer.

He simply looked at the desperate civilians with pity, then slowly raised his head and spoke leisurely:

"I am..."

"Qin Yao, the disciple of the ancient Buddha who has attained rebirth in the Land of Rebirth!"

"By the will of Buddha..."

"I have come to convert you!"

May all sentient beings... be reborn in the Pure Land!

boom!!!

As the words fell.

The fierce and unpredictable rules emanating from him shone brilliantly, appearing both incredibly sacred and incredibly terrifying in this golden desert.
