By now, the fight between Ren and Lingji Bodhisattva had come to a halt!
Both had stopped at the same time, distracted by Ruthless and Liuli Buddha!
Ren was especially stunned to see Ruthless blow Liuli Buddha apart!
When Ruthless first arrived in the Primordial World, Ren had no idea how powerful she was! Now he could see just how strong she was. After adapting to the Primordial World and drawing on its complete Great Dao, she had grown this much, this fast!
That was Liuli Buddha, and Ruthless had blown him apart just like that!
Lingji Bodhisattva, meanwhile, clutched his head in disbelief and roared, "How is this possible? How? How could Liuli Buddha lose? How could he be defeated? This isn't real!"
Lingji Bodhisattva roared, refusing to believe what he had seen!
But Liuli Buddha's body had burst apart. His flesh and blood turned to flames that scattered among the stars, lighting up the galaxy. There was no denying it!
Much of his blood had not turned to flame. It spilled across the Starry Sky!
Tiny drops landed on Lingji Bodhisattva's vacant face!
Feeling the blood on his skin, Lingji Bodhisattva gave a dazed, foolish smile, then gently swallowed Liuli Buddha's blood!
"Heh... It really is blood. Liuli Buddha's blood! It's real..." Lingji Bodhisattva roared, still wearing that foolish smile!
As he smiled, his once-benevolent Buddha light began to turn black!
A dark, oppressive aura flowed over him like water, growing so dense it resembled a fathomless black hole!
The change startled Ren. "That's Demon Qi. Is Lingji Bodhisattva turning into a demon?"
Ren knew Demon Qi well!
Lingji Bodhisattva clutched his head and screamed, "Ah... This isn't real! It isn't real... I don't believe it! I won't!"
As he roared, Demon Qi surged from his body, jolting
