Am I going to be controlled by the players too?

Only Sylvia, a seemingly delicate noblewoman, born into a life of luxury, had never faced a true life-or-death crisis. These generals, who valued military achievements and glory above all else, would have only recognized her beauty, piety, and kindness.

But now?

She accomplished what no one else could, conquering all the unruly generals with her strong will!

"Such an extraordinary woman exists in this world..."

"And she's so beautiful! Ah, if she were an idol, I'd definitely support her!"

"No, even if she's not an idol, we can still push her, right? I heard from the general that she seems to be participating in the queen election?"

"I want to support Sylvia as queen!"

"Hey! Wait a minute, the general is still here!"

Everyone turned to look at Lieutenant General Navel, instinctively lowering their heads in preparation for Navel's wrath.

However, Navel didn't get angry. Instead, she clasped her hands to her chest, looked up at the Water Curtain Cave, and her face showed a look of infatuation: "Ah... Sylvia, what a hero! How could there be such a being in the world who combines beauty and heroism..."

Looks like our boss is a Seele fan too.

The generals looked at each other in silence. Just then, Li Xianyu pointed in the direction of the Jingguan Bodhisattva and exclaimed, "Look, everyone!"

All eyes turned to them.

The Jingguan Bodhisattva statue was now a mess, its branches trembling, cracks spreading across its surface, and red liquid seeping out, pooling on its lotus pedestal. Meanwhile, the upstream river gushed forth from the Water Curtain Cave, forming a moat around the military camp as if it were free.

"Oh oh hoo hoo gu gu ga ga oh oh oh hoo~"

The chanting of the Bodhisattva Jingguan, which originally sounded like the chanting of millions of monks, has changed from the decisive and ruthless "Vajrabhairava" to the sensual "Hevajra Tantra". It is no longer as obscure and difficult to understand as before, but instead has a soft and sweet tone with breaths and trembling.

No matter how you look at it, the Jingguan Bodhisattva appears to be defeated.

but--

"not enough."

Navel frowned, staring at the cracks on the Jingguan Bodhisattva: "Although we defeated the Jingguan Bodhisattva, this little bit of life force is not enough to kill it!"

Besides, only Sylvia is left inside the Water Curtain Cave now.

Despite its extraordinary talent and its impressive skill in wielding the golden cudgel, it was still too small compared to the enormous body of the Jingguan Bodhisattva!

What should we do now?

Everyone wore expressions of despair.

The Jingguan Bodhisattva will recover soon, and they will no longer be able to fight... unless Sylvia can kill the Jingguan Bodhisattva by herself!

But is that even possible?

Just then, the Water Curtain Cave, which had been shrouded in shadow, began to emit light!

Purple light shone through the cave entrance, turning the waterfall purple, like a luminous ribbon.

"Oh oh ho ho ho gu gu ga ga oh oh oh ho!!!"

The struggles of the Jingguan Bodhisattva became more intense, its thousand hands digging wildly at the ground, its fingernails carving trenches more than ten meters deep into the soil, sending sand and dust flying!

It's a spark of lightning!

Thunder, being the most yang and yang element, is precisely what restrains the most yin and dark element, the god of death.

Cheng Cheng chose to use lightning and fire to discharge wildly within the Xuanpin, where the Yin energy of the Jingguan Bodhisattva was most abundant. The damage exploded, directly charring the Jingguan Bodhisattva's entire body, and causing the blood from the Reverse Flow River to gush out like a raging torrent!

"They're actually charging on Bilibili... Such a ruthless tactic..."

Navel, Li Xianyu, Freya, and the others present all turned pale, their legs involuntarily closing together, feeling the pain as if it were their own.

"Boss, isn't this a bit too much?" Bugu wiped his drool. "But it looks really interesting, I really want to try it..."

Li Xianyu felt a chill run down her spine and quickly moved away from the cuckoo.

However, the discharge lasted only a moment before the purple light went out, the waterfall returned to its blood-red color, and only steam continued to rise.

Navel blinked, realizing the reason: "Water conducts electricity. If this move were used in the Reverse River, Sylvia would probably be seriously injured."

Inside the Water Curtain Cave.

Cheng Cheng loosened his grip on the golden cudgel; his fingers were numb, his forearms were numb, and his whole body was covered in charred marks.

What should I do?

Sylvia was alone; without using lightning, where would she get enough life force to kill the Jingguan Bodhisattva?

Cheng Cheng was also thinking about this problem.

When he reached the top of the Reverse River, he found that continuing to use the Golden Cudgel to attack had no effect other than making the Reverse River water of the Jingguan Bodhisattva more and more turbulent.

Lightning should not be used excessively, otherwise, before the Jingguan Bodhisattva dies, you will be buried with him.

Where can we find enough vitality?

Cheng Cheng remained silent, looking out of the Water Curtain Cave.

The light at the cave entrance was dim, mostly obscured by the blood-red waterfall, leaving only a dark red outline around its edge. Through the waterfall, one could vaguely see the sky outside—the black sun was still there, but the blood moon was hidden beside it, its light as pale as a veil.

Under the moonlight, an army of 200,000 was continuously producing life force to supply Cheng Cheng, making him immune to the fatal effects of the red mist and the Reverse River.

However, they were too far apart, and the vital energy was supplied through a ritual, as if there was an invisible supply pipeline between them—there were losses and maximum power. With this amount of vital energy, it was impossible to kill the Jingguan Bodhisattva.

unless--

Unless we allow 200,000 troops to generate life force directly inside the Water Curtain Cave and strike straight at the heart of the enemy!

Could it fit inside the Water Curtain Cave?

Cheng Cheng looked around, estimated for a moment, and nodded.

It can fit!

This Jingguan Bodhisattva is truly a place where one can find refuge, just like the saying goes, "If only I had ten thousand mansions, I could shelter all the poor scholars of the world and make them smile."

The only problem was how to transport the 200,000-strong army in—the Water Curtain Cave was located at a high altitude, and 99% of those 200,000 soldiers were ordinary people who had not yet reached the Silver rank and had no ability to fly!

Moving all the gold in one by one, who knows how long it will take!

Unless the fire source is used... but the "marriage" fire source is a lower-level fire source after all. Controlling a few dozen people to fly in at a time is already the limit. How could it possibly link two hundred thousand people with the Jingguan Bodhisattva at the same time?

“A killing move…” Cheng Cheng muttered to himself, “Unless, like the other Gold Saints, he combines the fire seeds to unleash a killing move!”

But how do you create a killer move?

Cheng Cheng currently possesses four superior fire seeds: Puppet, Gun, Lightning, and Plane Crash; and four inferior fire seeds: Burning at the stake, Injustice, Marriage, and Spider. Among them, the Gun comes from Freya's contribution, while Injustice and Marriage are his own gains in reality. The rest all belong to Sylvia's body itself.

How did these sparks combine to form a deadly attack that brought an army of 200,000 to the scene?

Cheng Cheng closed his eyes.

Well... first of all, marriage is definitely the core of the killer move.

Guns, lightning, and burning at the stake are purely lethal fire sources... useless, so we won't consider them for now.

Spider silk and puppet silk share a commonality: they can attempt to control others without turning them into puppets...

Marriage allows people to share flesh and blood, cultivation, and power, but not marriage allows the shared parts to be separated... If one shares their power of flight with every thread, and then connects everyone through those threads, they can all take flight...

The essence of a plane crash is "falling," and while there's the capability to ban flights, how can a flight be banned if the plane isn't flying? Perhaps this is worth investigating...

In addition, the "Arrogance" card's effect doubles the power when used against soldiers who are inferior to oneself; the more one looks down on them, the more the power doubles...

The sparks began to move, approach, and merge. Cheng Cheng combined the sparks according to his own ideas and attempted to activate them.

Failed.

Cheng Cheng opened his eyes, his head throbbing as if someone were knocking it from the inside out, and liquid was flowing from his nose.

The paths of magic are in complete disarray, and how each spark should be coordinated and manipulated requires gradual research and experimentation.

But now there's no time. If we don't kill the Jingguan Bodhisattva in one fell swoop, the opponent will recover!

The ignition sources are too incompatible and cannot be combined... That's it!

Why can't one kind of fire be used on another kind of fire?

Wouldn't it be much more convenient to use puppets and turn all the other sources of fire into puppets that can act on their own and obey commands?

Cheng Cheng closed his eyes again, tried for a moment, and a joyful expression appeared on his face!

efficient!

He activated the fire again, this time using the puppet fire to indirectly control marriage, spiders, and injustice. While sharing a certain amount of flight ability, he amplified the effects of all abilities through the Pride card!

Furthermore, with 200,000 soldiers already engaged in reproduction, they can be considered a "married" unit, further reducing the number that needs to be controlled.

The next moment, silver threads shot out from his body.

Thousands of threads pierced through the waterfall, shot towards the military camp, landed on a soldier's back, and then began to tighten.

Killer Move: Providing shelter for all the poor and needy, bringing them joy!

"Boom boom boom—!"

Inside the military camp, the hundreds of fleshy mountains that were constantly generating life force were actually lifted off the ground by this deadly move!

Then—

Heading straight for the Water Curtain Cave!

At first glance, the Water Curtain Cave of the Jingguan Bodhisattva is like a vacuum cleaner, sucking up countless soldiers on the spot and quickly sucking them in to line up and enter the cave!

One after another, mountains of flesh were sucked into the cave entrance, the waterfall was pushed open, and water splashed everywhere.

And throughout this process, they continue to radiate vitality!

The Water Curtain Cave was constantly being filled, and even the upstream river was blocked by the crowd. They even went further, breaking through the cave entrance that was blocking Cheng Cheng's way, and flying towards the palace at the deepest part of the Water Curtain Cave!

May all the poor and needy of the world be sheltered and may they all rejoice!

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!"

Boundless vital energy surged within the Jingguan Bodhisattva, causing it to collapse violently. The statue crumbled from the inside out, layer by layer, with the lotus base shattering into millions of white porcelain shards, followed by the legs, torso, and thousand arms, before finally exploding on the spot and turning into red mist!

The Water Curtain Cave has been revealed to the world once again!

The black sun hung high in the sky, and the thick red mist and the Reverse River converged around Cheng Cheng, eventually forming a blood-red spark that hung in mid-air, level with his chest.

The tinder is about the size of a fist, shaped like a Buddhist rosary, with fine lines on its surface. Deep within these lines, light flows, beating like a heart.
