Chapter 897: Slaying the Future

The Buddha was burning with rage. How many epochs had it been since he had been suppressed by an ant like this, and even before the supreme beings of two races, he had lost so much face.

This was simply unbearable.

Even if he tore the other party into ten thousand pieces, it would be hard to wash away the anger in his heart.

Lin Fan, now at the end of his rope and forced into a corner, said, "Bald donkey, even if you kill me, you can never wash away the fact that I suppressed you."

"Silence!" the Buddha roared, his golden Buddha body trembling violently. His Buddha eyes were now filled with boundless fury. "This Buddha will slay you in every life, past and future, and reduce you to nothingness."

"Haha, bald donkey, you just wait. Even if I am slain in this life, what of it? In the next life, and the life after that, I will fight you to the death without end."

Lin Fan laughed loudly. Since there was no other way, he would go all out. Even if he died, he would die standing tall.

As long as his spiritual consciousness was not extinguished, he could be reborn.

Lin Fan hadn't expected to end up like this. The path of cultivation was fraught with danger, never smooth sailing.

"Hmph, next life? Do you think this Buddha will give you that chance?"

"At the Sovereign realm, spiritual consciousness is indestructible, seemingly immortal. But unfortunately, you have met this Buddha and the Sutra of Three Lifetimes."

The Buddha roared, the swastika on his chest radiating golden Buddha light. Countless Buddhas surrounded him, imbued with boundless power of time.

"The Buddha's Sutra of Three Lifetimes is truly formidable. Slaying all three lives, eradicating everything. Even if the spiritual consciousness is indestructible, it will only dissipate and become nothingness," said the Star Clan Ancestor calmly, but greed flickered in his eyes.

The Sutra of Three Lifetimes was an extremely wondrous scripture between heaven and earth, possessing mysterious and unfathomable power.

The Buddha's achievements were inseparable from this sutra.

Hum!

Suddenly, a mysterious, irresistible force enveloped Lin Fan.

"What the hell is this?" Lin Fan was greatly alarmed. What was this bald donkey up to now? Lin Fan naturally knew about the indestructibility of spiritual consciousness. As long as it was not extinguished, one could keep reincarnating. But although it was indestructible, it could fall asleep, and whether it would awaken in the next life was another question.

Suddenly, Lin Fan felt as if something in his spiritual consciousness was being pulled out by this force.

Instantly, an image appeared in the void, showing his life on Earth.

Lin Fan didn't know what the bald donkey was trying to do, but suddenly a thunderous shout came.

"Slay!"

Pfft!

Lin Fan's mind shook violently, as if struck by a heavy blow, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Hmph, human, this ancestor has slain your past life and wounded your spiritual consciousness. Once I sever your present and future lives, no matter how strong your spiritual consciousness, from now on it will dissipate between heaven and earth."

The Buddha's gloomy voice came again.

Lin Fan's heart trembled, his face full of disbelief. How could there be such a method in this world?

Slaying his past, present, and future lives—this left him no way out at all.

He had to resist.

"Heh, don't bother resisting. Even if you turn the heavens upside down, it's useless."

"Slaying your future, let's see how you dissipate," the Buddha said coldly. The Sutra of Three Lifetimes began to operate again. This was a great divine power that penetrated heaven and earth, incomparable even to the Great Conversion Buddha Light.

This great divine power was a technique the Buddha clan had seized from a mysterious place during the first epoch.

Even the supreme beings could not resist it, let alone a mere human.

In an instant, an image appeared.

Slaying the three lives was too profound. Even though Lin Fan used every means, he could not stop it.

At this moment, Lin Fan looked up at the image. Was that his future?

"Loo! Loo!"

As soon as Lin Fan saw the image, he was stunned. Was that really him? He looked so dispirited.

In the image, his future self was sleeping in what seemed like a void, sleeping very soundly, snoring away. He looked ordinary, just like a common person.

"Human, this is your future. After this Buddha severs your future, you will have nothing to rely on. Your spiritual consciousness will vanish, and you will completely dissipate between heaven and earth," the Buddha said coldly, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"This is the peak of the Sutra of Three Lifetimes—severing the future. I didn't expect the Buddha to have reached this level," said the Star Clan Ancestor.

"If he unifies the three lives, his strength will surpass all. By then, even we might not be his match," the Night Demon Ancestor muttered to himself.

Awakening in this epoch was to pursue the final hope.

If they failed to seize this opportunity, even they would completely dissipate and cease to exist from then on.

Heaven and earth would be annihilated, time would dissipate, everything would vanish, all would return to nothingness. Epochs would cease, transcending all.

"Bald donkey, stop! Let's talk this out," Lin Fan said, feeling his spiritual consciousness begin to tremble again.

If this bald donkey really slew his future, everything would be destroyed.

Even his spiritual consciousness would be unable to reincarnate.

"Human, take a good look at your future. Sleeping in the endless void, just like you now. Everything will vanish like smoke," the Buddha toyed with all beings, severing all karma.

"Slay!"

In an instant, the Buddha roared, and a beam of Buddha light penetrated the image. The mysterious force traversed the river of time to the future, completely slaying Lin Fan's future.

"Damn..."

Lin Fan looked at the scene before him and instantly roared. What the hell...

"Bang!"

A faint smile appeared on the Buddha's lips. Everything was under control. The image before him would soon dissipate completely.

Lin Fan's heart tightened. It was over...

But at that moment, the Buddha looked at the image and suddenly cried out in panic, "How is this possible..."

Lin Fan, still unaware of what had happened, was also stunned when he saw the image of his future.

His sleeping future self rubbed his chest and muttered, "A bit itchy."

"How is it possible? How can it not be severed?"

"I don't believe it."

The Buddha roared in fury.

"Slay!"

Seeing the light that could sever everything penetrate the image, Lin Fan closed his eyes in despair again.

But then he heard the Buddha's roar again and opened his eyes. His future self was still sleeping there, scratching himself.

"Haha!" Lin Fan burst into laughter. "Bald donkey, are you messing with me? Trying to slay my future, you didn't even cut a hair. Who are you trying to scare?"

"Impossible!" the Buddha roared.

"Slay!"

"I slay!"

"I don't believe it! Slay! Slay! Slay!"

At this moment, the Buddha was enraged. He slashed countless times. How could the Buddha clan fail to slay the other's future?

But then, a scene that terrified everyone occurred.

"Slay your mother! Slay, slay, slay! Can't you let me sleep?"

In an instant, his future self opened his eyes and roared angrily.

"Didn't expect my future self to have such personality, just like me," Lin Fan said with a smile.

Then, a terrifying aura erupted from his future self's body...
