The Battle Ends, Golden Body Sculpting Method

Mu Yang took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and mobilized all the energy within his body before snapping his eyes open and jerking his head upward.

Before him, the massive Destruction Energy Ball, vast as a planet, blotted out everything in his field of vision; oxygen vanished, and the very air trembled.

The magnificent Destruction Energy Ball, radiating energy like a sun at every moment, suddenly surged toward Mu Yang.

It was right upon him, inches from his face.

Mu Yang raised both hands, struggling desperately to hold back the energy sphere.

Sweat beaded on his face, yet it was all to no avail!

Mu Yang remained powerless against the Destruction Energy Ball, forced to retreat step after step.

"If you cannot block it, then just die like this." Champa stood with his hands behind his back, watching Mu Yang struggle in vain below, a flicker of imperceptible regret flashing in his eyes.

This brat...

It's a pity he's a Candidate Destroyer for that guy Beerus.

Why isn't he my Candidate Destroyer?

What kind of blind luck did that guy Beerus stumble into?

"Stop joking around, Destroyer Champa!" Even pushed to such a wretched state, Mu Yang gritted his teeth, holding on stubbornly, his voice showing no sign of weakness, "I won't lose, and I certainly won't die!"

"Heaven Swallowing Demon Art, activate!"

"Body Tempering Method, activate!"

"Ahhh!! I will transcend my limits!! Reach the pinnacle!!"

The Legendary Super Saiyan Bloodline within Mu Yang boiled and burned.

In an instant, he vaulted over layers of combat power, arriving at a new dimension!

"Nani?"

Champa's eyes widened, his heart filled with even more envy and jealousy toward Beerus.

Under this life-or-death crisis, not only did he not give up, but his strength had reached a new level—what kind of monster was this?

It was heaven-defying!

Champa was bitter, but he didn't say it.

He continued to mock, "It's useless; no one can save you."

How vast was the gap between a Destroyer and a mortal? It was not something that could be bridged by merely breaking through a realm or two.

As one-quarter of Champa's power, it was impossible to block without strength at the Super Saiyan Blue level.

At this moment, Mu Yang's eyes gradually lost their focus; he was so exhausted that he no longer had the strength to think about such things.

Only one thought remained in his mind.

That was to successfully stop this Destruction Energy Ball.

The system's mechanical voice rang out once more.

[Ding~, congratulations to the host for experiencing a life-or-death crisis. With heaven-defying comprehension, you have automatically mastered the Golden Body Tempering Method.]

Golden Body Tempering Method!!

Mu Yang felt the information of the Golden Body Tempering Method flood into his mind; it contained only a single line of text.

Seek death to find life; like a phoenix rising from the ashes, attain the Buddha Golden Body.

Mu Yang's face lit up with joy, and he directly abandoned all resistance.

His body was gradually swallowed by Champa's Destruction Energy Ball.

"Is this all it amounts to?"

Champa's gaze fell with complex emotions; he sighed regretfully and closed his eyes. "It's over."

"Mu Yang..." Whis furrowed his brows tightly.

"How could this be?" Vados lost her composure, covering her lips with her hand.

She had not expected such an outcome.

A mere sparring match had actually led to such an accident.

However, thinking of her own abilities, Vados breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there was still a chance for a remedy.

But Mu Yang...

Vados shook her head in disappointment. Nothing but reckless courage.

Even with heaven-sent talent, his lack of wits meant he could only serve as a vanguard, never a general.

"Vados, hurry and use Time Rewind! If you're too late, this brat is really going to die." Champa shouted at Vados, his hands clasped behind his back.

"I understand, Lord Champa." Vados smiled, gripping her staff tightly as she prepared to channel her Angelic power to reverse the flow of time.

"Hum!"

A massive golden radiance suddenly erupted across the Destroyer God Realm.

"Nani?"

Champa, Whis, and even Vados all gasped in astonishment.

Before them stood Mu Yang, his entire body shimmering with golden light, having suddenly absorbed the entirety of the Destruction Energy Ball. His body seemed to be etched with a map of the cosmic stars.

Mu Yang sat cross-legged on the ground, his every breath embodying the laws of the universe, his body radiating a brilliant glow.

"Thump!"

A Buddha Golden Body suddenly manifested around Mu Yang.

Then.

Under the stunned gazes of the Angels and the Destroyer God, Mu Yang slowly opened his eyes. A golden glint flashed within his pupils, illuminating the heavens and the earth.

The energy grew obscure and intangible before vanishing entirely.

Mu Yang retracted the dozens-of-meters-tall Buddha Golden Body back into his frame and slowly stood up.

Under Champa's bewildered gaze, a wicked, playful smirk curled onto Mu Yang's lips. "I'm not dead yet. Are you disappointed, Destroyer God Champa?"

Champa slowly regained his composure, casting a complex look at Mu Yang. "You guy..."

As for the rest of the words he left unsaid, Champa didn't want to continue; it was too demoralizing.

Not only had his repeated attacks failed to kill Mu Yang, but they had actually helped him grow stronger time and time again.

Anyone with a weaker heart would have probably quit right then and there.

Although Champa could no longer gauge the extent of Mu Yang's current strength, judging by the celestial phenomena and that massive Buddha Golden Body from just moments ago, his power had undoubtedly ascended to a different level.

"So, let's continue..."

Mu Yang looked at Champa, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.

But the next second.

Before he could even finish his sentence, he collapsed, unconscious.

Seeing this, Champa let out a sharp sigh of relief.

Thank goodness...

Whis tapped his staff lightly against the ground, and a gentle barrier enveloped Mu Yang, floating him over to his side.

"So, Lord Champa can feel fear after all?" Vados chuckled softly.

"Vados, I am not afraid!" Champa retorted stubbornly. "He just performed well, so I'm sparing his life, that's all."

"Hehe... sure, sure..." Vados nodded repeatedly.

Champa was left speechless.

Vados's attitude was truly perfunctory.

A cockroach that couldn't be killed and only grew stronger the more you fought it—whoever wanted to deal with him could go right ahead.

As for him, Champa, he was done!

"Then, Sister Vados, I shall take my leave." Whis prepared to depart with Mu Yang.

"Don't be in such a rush." Vados chuckled, looking at Mu Yang. "It won't be too late to leave once this little one wakes up."

Whis: "..."

He finally understood; his sister still hadn't given up on Mu Yang.

"Sister, Mu Yang is very fond of Universe 7." Whis said with a serious expression.

"Damn Beerus, I'm going to beat you up sooner or later." Mu Yang muttered in his sleep.

"???"

Whis didn't even know what to say anymore.

"Hahahaha..." Champa burst into gloating laughter.

"It seems little brother Mu Yang isn't quite as attached to Universe 7 as all that." Vados gave Whis a meaningful look.

Whis's mouth twitched; he was starting to regret bringing Mu Yang to Universe 6.
