Chapter 3955 - Thousand-armed-Bodhisattva Variant

The moment Tianming said that, Jiang Lincheng rose into the air from beside him as his violetrose electrowings manifested. Like a flower of lightning, countless bolts of rose-shaped lightning shot out toward Zhan Xiao.

Princess You You, while young, was ranked third in the Ten Desolate Cosmic Genii Ranking. However, that didn't make her the strongest in the group. Even so, she was unmatched by any fourth-level cosmic god in the Ten Desolate Starforges, even though she was only a third-level cosmic god, which made her have even more talent and potential than any other deva.

"Charge!" Jiang Lincheng ordered. The kunlan primalwingers followed his orders without question and flew into the rabble. They were a strong foe for the devas to contend with, especially after the hard-fought battle against the Sin Pantheon and ashuras.

"Protect You You!" Zhan Xiao yelled, but Jiang Lincheng's kilometer-wide wings had already obscured his view. Countless bolts of lightning flowed through the wings and his astral body, unleashing as much power as Yushen An had! Both were powerful and talented primalwingers.

Zhan Xiao was completely enveloped by the purple lightning. Before he was swept off, he turned into his three-headed, six-armed form, roared, and charged toward Jiang Lincheng. Thanks to the unpredictable primalwings, primalwingers were one of the few human races that dared to fight specters in close combat. Beastmasters, on the other hand, preferred to keep their distance.

The other kunlan primalwingers locked onto their own deva targets. Even if they hadn't been their match back then, they had numerical superiority, not to mention the devas had been tired out from the previous fight. Soon, the cosmic gods from the Primordial Sands managed to gain a huge advantage while the devas struggled to keep up. Tianming appeared before Princess You You during such circumstances.

"Are you trying to take me down and force us to go back to fight the Sin Pantheon and ashuras with you? You're after the ninelives fruit, aren't you?" she said, staring warily at him.

"Oh? To think that you'd predict even that...." Tianming was rather surprised. He noticed that she seemed really frail and delicate from up close. Her eyes were a pale white and lacked the ferocity that a normal specter's eyes would have. In fact, she looked very humanly and her features even resembled those of porcelain dolls. Her skin was as smooth as white jade, making her look like a finely sculpted and polished work of art.

"I was born with a sense that lets me feel your thoughts."

"I see.... Then try to guess what I'm thinking of right now," Tianming said with a smirk.

She shook before her face flushed red. "How shameless! I'm still a minor!"

Tianming was rather taken aback that someone who had hit a hundred years of age would claim to be a minor. That was probably the norm for those who were born as cosmic gods, reaching a point where most lifeforms would never even approach across countless lifetimes. It was incredibly rare for people to be born like her and still have that kind of aura.

Though Tianming found her interesting, he didn't have time to waste words on this young genius. In fact, Tianming himself wasn't that far off in terms of age compared to her. When she was born as a cosmic god, Tianming was still nothing but the lowest-tier trash in Flamehaven.

"I want to go back to wipe them out too, but I have no excuse. If you're able to defeat me, then that makes things easier. I would at least have an explanation to offer the seniors," Princess You You said.

"Aren't you worried about the tracing ring? You're just openly talking about it right now."

"I turned it off long ago."

"Alright, then let's have ourselves a duel." Tianming understood her intentions. She needed a good excuse to cooperate with the Primordial Sands, and being defeated and forced to do their bidding was the perfect reason. The fact that this was even a possibility was due to how badly the ashuras and Sin Pantheon had enraged the devas.

Princess You You transformed into her specter form as Tianming watched curiously. "I wonder what makes her stand out to the point of being ranked third?" The Ten Desolate Cosmic Genii Ranking wasn't a ranking of combat capability, but rather, talent.

Then, Tianming realized that her form didn't have three heads and six arms. She still had one head, but countless hands seemed to appear from her back like a mirage. It looked as if she actually had a thousand arms, each one snow-white and spreading out sinisterly from her back.

"A thousand-armed-bodhisattva variant.... Is this one of the top-tier bloodlines of the devas?" Jiang Datou mumbled when he saw it from afar.

"She's born in an imperial-class world. I heard that her bloodline is imperial tier," Jiang Xiaobai said.

"Can Lin Feng defeat her?"

"No idea...." The two of them looked rather worried, but they wouldn't come to help. Thousand-armed-bodhisattva variants were far too terrifying.

A ring-disc began to spin on You You's back, letting out an ear-piercing sound.

"Sevenfold hell-rings! A ghoul king from the seventh layer of hell is being summoned!" When the sevenfold hell-ring opened, the devas' ghouls all around the battlefield cried in sorrow. Even though it was only a young ghoul, it was a supreme existence! Hands lifted up a single dark-red eye from behind You You's back. Within it, a crimson shade could be seen.

"The jianu ghoul king!" The shade had a thousand arms as well. It was the kind of talent that would make the devas go wild. Someone like Zhan Xiao, a genius from the Ninefold Hellstar, would no doubt have loved to serve her loyally and willingly and do anything she asked for.

Tianming was also impressed by it. "Now that's high tier."

In three hundred years' time, You You would no doubt have become a top elite in her faction and dominated maniverse-class worlds easily. Between those who were only a hundred, it was simply a competition to see who had the most monstrous talent.

Tianming gripped his sword tightly, supported by the four beasts fused with his body. He pulsed with power before his abilities fired off toward the princess, which immediately sensed the threat he posed.

"That's enough!" You You said, suddenly holding back before Tianming struck. "That's convincing enough. Once we wipe them out, I'll duel with you fairly." She wanted to conserve her strength for the upcoming fight.

"Then, let's at least put up a show," Tianming said as he charged.

"Alright."

They emerged into the chaotic battle, and Tianming quickly used the roots that stemmed from his legs to wrap around You You. He yelled at the devas, "Everyone, stop!"
