Lin Mu's eyes glowed red. With a sweep of his hand, a gigantic longsword slashed toward the Golden Buddha Phantom.
Abeyama's expression turned grave. Scriptures wrapped around his hands as he blocked the longsword Lin Mu had sent at him.

As Abeyama restrained Lin Mu's longsword, he shouted.
Two enormous hands extended from the Golden Buddha Phantom's back once more and smashed fiercely toward Lin Mu.
"Emergence!"
The scriptures on the Golden Buddha's additional pair of arms began to flow rapidly. Amid faint, indistinct chanting, they crashed down onto the Half-Body Susanoo.
"Boom boom boom—!!!"
The scripture-wreathed fists struck the Half-Body Susanoo's chest, leaving two extremely distinct fist marks there.
The struck area caved in deeply, with scriptures continuously spilling from the breach.
The presence of the scriptures made Lin Mu's process of repairing the Susanoo extremely slow.
The power of that punch had somewhat exceeded Lin Mu's expectations. He had not expected it to break through even the Half-Body Susanoo's defenses, if only slightly.

That was to stall for time until
