My brainpower is evolving infinitely.

Buddha and sword, they are mutually opposed and antagonistic.

Its powerful mental abilities even caused a slight tremor in the mental realm.

Even though he was mentally prepared, Lin Ye still couldn't help but feel slightly shocked after witnessing this fantastical scene.

No...it's not fantasy!

After careful observation, Lin Ye discovered that both the sword and the golden Buddha statue conformed to a certain order of spiritual power.

Like their own psychic fields, they were all artificially created by psychic individuals.

Buddha statues are likely the result of some kind of spiritual practice.

Just like martial arts moves, with the same amount of force, a good martial arts move can exert an attack power far exceeding that of random kicks and punches.

The Buddha statue is more like a giant attacking with a tangible spiritual force, created through powerful spiritual abilities.

It does not form a psychic field, yet it can engage in ranged combat.

It releases powerful spiritual energy to form a physical giant to fight, and due to its special spiritual arrangement, it possesses an extremely 'masculine' attribute in terms of spirit.

Mental energy also has different types of emotions, such as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and the emotional impact of different mental energy attributes is completely different.

The Buddha statue's spiritual attributes and the sword's spiritual attributes form a perfect counter.

Furthermore, the spiritual power of the sword is even more profound than that of the Buddha statue.

Its main body uses a very special material. This material not only has powerful energy, but can also lock in spiritual power, just like a living person, giving the sword itself a certain consciousness.

This manufacturing method is somewhat similar to giving robots AI intelligence that allows them to think for themselves.

But it is more powerful than artificial intelligence because it is truly self-aware.

The artificial intelligence technology that humans currently possess does not inherently possess emotional characteristics, yet it can.

From this perspective, it is already infinitely close to a living organism!

This groundbreaking discovery opened Lin Ye's mind.

That is, can the consciousness of a living organism be permanently transferred to non-organic matter?

If this could really be achieved, wouldn't that be another form of... immortality?

For example, after a human body dies, it can be permanently preserved through this transformation.

Of course, it can also be transferred into other life forms, but transferring it in will inevitably kill one person.

Furthermore, cultivating living organisms requires a lot of resources, which is far less efficient than transferring them into mechanical life forms.

He himself certainly didn't want to use this method, but he had so many subordinates. If his subordinates died, wouldn't using this method be the same as resurrecting them?

It can also cultivate an even more powerful mechanical legion.

This gives off a feeling of mechanical ascension.

Once he breaks through to a higher level of life dimension, he can easily create powerful unconscious life forms, and even transfer his subordinates into these new life forms...

Lin Ye's heart pounded wildly.

The Evolution Frenzy can only grant superpowers, but it doesn't say it can make people live longer, much less make them immortal.

He can indirectly reverse death; his methods are truly extraordinary!

Just like the gods in mythological novels.

"Now we really have to build a 'divine court'!"

Could they simulate and create mythical realms like the "Heavenly Court" and the "Underworld"?

A series of thoughts exploded in Lin Ye's mind like sparks.

It was the unusual movements of the Buddha statue and the sword that brought him back to his senses.

At this moment, the spiritual fluctuations on the sword became increasingly intense, showing a willingness to fight to the death.

The Buddha statue began to flicker between light and shadow, and its spiritual sequence was beginning to collapse, unable to continue.

Once a certain point in the sequence collapses, the entire Buddha statue will be completely destroyed.

At that time, the sword will regain its autonomy and leave this place.

Lin Ye naturally couldn't let the sword leave.

With a sudden thought, he immediately began to analyze how the Buddha statue worked.

"The True Meaning of Tathagata... the name is quite nice."

With a calm smile, Lin Ye once again analyzed the sword's mental fluctuation sequence, discerning all its weaknesses.

In the spiritual realm, the golden Buddha statue grew increasingly weak, and the fluctuations in the spiritual realm became increasingly intense.

Even in the darkness, one could hear the sword emit a sound of extreme pleasure.

The golden Buddha phantom struggled fiercely, seemingly trying its best to suppress it, but it was helpless.

Just when he was on the verge of despair, suddenly, a golden light burst forth, illuminating the darkness in the distance.

At first, it was just a tiny bit.

It quickly grew stronger and transformed into a golden Buddha with the same 'masculine' attribute.

Do not!

This golden Buddha is even stronger! It's much larger!

The golden Buddha phantom and the sword shadow were both greatly shocked at this moment, seemingly not expecting that a Cheng Yaojin would suddenly appear out of nowhere.

Sensing the threat, the sword shadow trembled. Lin Ye, controlling the golden Buddha phantom, hurled it at the sword shadow without hesitation.

boom--!

With a deafening roar, the entire mental realm was violently shaken.

The sword shadow was blasted back on the spot, and the phantom began to flicker, severely damaged.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Ye used his mental power to penetrate the sword, targeting its mental sequence weakness and locking it in.

Upon realizing Lin Ye's intentions, the sword shadow first let out an angry tremor. Before it could even attack, it was already completely under Lin Ye's control. Shocked, it let out a mournful cry, declaring that it would never be free again in this life.

Lin Ye, wielding a golden Buddha sword, unleashed a single strike that shattered the entire spiritual domain.

In that instant, the entire Tianjing Temple trembled violently.

The worshippers who were burning incense and praying in the front yard suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"ah--!"

"What happened? Was it an earthquake?"

...

Amidst the commotion, a beam of dark blue light shot out from the meditation hall in the backyard and flew straight into Lin Ye's hand.

With the divine sword in hand, Lin Ye lightly touched the ground with his feet and quietly departed.

Just as he left, an old Zen master rushed out of the meditation hall, shouting in shock:

"Senior, please wait. This sword is dangerous and cannot be controlled by ordinary people. It risks devouring its master."

Just then, two young monks rushed in.

"Master, what just happened?"

The old Zen master looked terrified.

"Quickly, inform the World Honored One that the God-Slaying Sword has been stolen!"

Lin Ye ignored this and had already gone to an alley several streets away.

He looked at the sword in his hand. It was three feet and three inches long, and its entire body was bronze. Mysterious inscriptions were engraved on it. A consciousness within it was like an old dog that had been tamed for many years. It was respectful to him and dared not resist in the slightest.

"Devouring to its master?"

A slight smile appeared on his lips.

For ordinary people, there is indeed a possibility of them being devoured by their master, such as those who are family-oriented.

Lin Ye knew from Gu Manyun's memories that this sword was kept by the Gu family heads of successive generations, and that every Gu family head who used this sword would die young.

Because they didn't subdue the sword, but rather recognized it as their master, treating it as a sacred object of their family.

But for Lin Ye, it was just a weapon, a weapon completely under his control.

Devouring one's master is simply not an option for him.
