I Will Teach You How to Hunt Gods-Chapter 461 - 99: Lotus of Karmic Fate

Although this character is extremely rare and almost absent from modern records, Yun You recognized its meaning at a glance.

[Star].

"It's the second volume of the Star-Attracting Skill!"

Yun You felt a surge of joy in her heart.

The reason she took the risk to come to the Floating Island was precisely for this thing, wasn't it?

However, despite having gathered much intelligence, she couldn't find the exact coordinates of the remnant of the Star-Attracting Skill, only knowing that it had been thrown into the Corpse Lake.

When she learned this, she almost gave up.

How vast is the Corpse Lake? Searching for a book within it is not quite a needle in a haystack, but equivalent to finding a diamond in the desert.

But who would have thought that the vast Corpse Lake transformed into a Flesh and Blood Lotus Platform, ultimately becoming her feast, and the Star-Attracting Skill remnant hidden in its waters fortuitously fell into her hands.

Truly, what is meant to be will be; what is not meant to be should not be forced...

The first volume of the Star-Attracting Skill ushered her into the ranks of the Apprentice Death God, granting her a nearly invincible level of physical fitness within her tier in a short time.

And what surprise will this second volume bring her?

Yun You was quite eager, even wishing she could open the book now and study it thoroughly.

But after contemplating for a moment, she decided against it and instead tucked the book into her pocket.

Although her speed in studying the Star-Attracting Skill was fast, now is indeed not the time for learning.

If she accidentally fell into a coma again, subsequent events would go beyond her control.

"Let's take it easy, better to study it after returning."

She silently thought to herself and then looked at the second large item in her palm.

It was a crystal clear, semi-translucent twelve-faceted crystal, the size of a baby's fist, entirely with a faint pink hue, and within it, a complete lotus slowly rotating, emanating a reassuring glow.

"Is this... a prosthetic crystal made by Yuanbao referencing the 'Reality Stabilizer'?"

Yun You recognized the original form of the crystal.

But unlike those large crystals embedded in the Karma Remnant Buddha, comparable in size to a car, this pink crystal was too small, and even more, it carried the presence of Alef Creatures.

"Could this be the Karma Remnant Buddha's 'Soul Stone'?"

After thinking about it, Yun You still used the "Information Reconnaissance Chip" by her ear.

In the previous battle, this chip, like Yun You, had suffered countless cuts.

But as it was made of memory metal, unless subjected to extreme heat, even if cut hundreds of thousands of times, it would not suffer major damage and could still be used.

Soon, the information panel of the crystal appeared before Yun You's eyes.

[Single Soldier "Abnormal" Power Suppressor · Anomalous Transformation (Prototype, with unpredictable mutations due to unknown force influence)]

[Manufacturer: Master Yuanbao]

[Prosthetic Level: Quasi-Military Level]

[Suggested Retail Price: 50 million Yabi]

[Prosthetic Introduction: The "Abnormal Power Suppressor" was previously created by Yuanbao referencing the "Reality Stabilizer", capable of selectively suppressing all types of "abnormal" powers, including but not limited to: Power of the Apprentice Death God Sequence, Power of the Death Domain, Power of Tower Citizen Sacrifice, with suppression strengthening as proximity increases]

[Whether Sur Particles can be suppressed is still under research]

[It is worth noting that due to the influence of some kind of flesh-like artifact, the size of this prosthetic and the range of its power suppression have been greatly reduced, but in return, it has gained a new ability]

[The specific abilities are shown below]

[Prosthetic Effect One: Directional Suppression]

[Upon activation, the crystal will release a power suppression beam to lock onto a designated enemy in front, suppressing their power, with the suppression degree enhancing as the enemy gets closer, capable of suppressing up to 60% of power]

[However, note that this suppression beam only has full effect on Apprentice Death Gods below Tier Four, Apprentice Death Gods of Tier Four and above can resist this effect, and Tier Five and higher Death Gods can even be immune to it]

[This beam will not cause harm or suppression to the user, please use it with confidence]

[Each emission of the suppression beam consumes all the energy within the crystal, which is automatically replenished by solar energy, typically refilled every 1 to 3 days, or the user can replenish it themselves, ensuring only to charge it with Sur Particles]

A rather powerful ability.

Yun You finally understood why Yuanbao was resolute in creating this crystal.

Suppressing Tier Four Apprentice Death Gods' power with no side effects at all... the effect of this item could only be described as exaggerated.

In combat within the same tier, a one percent difference can sometimes influence the outcome of the battle.

But it could suppress 60%...

Such an effect wholly deserved the title of "Quasi-Military Prosthetic"!

Moreover, even more exaggerated was that the crystal's ability was not just limited to one aspect.

[Prosthetic Effect Two: Karma Lotus Descent]

[Specific effects are unknown, but the user can attach the crystal to any surface with a lotus pattern to activate the effect]

A somewhat "enigmatic" effect.

Initially, Yun You was a bit puzzled.

But soon, she realized, gazing at her Red Scale.

Just before passing out, she noticed a pink lotus pattern appearing on one of the scales of the Red Scale Giant Claw.

At that time, she didn't know what the lotus signified or its purpose...

But now it seemed this was meant to be used in conjunction with the crystal.

"It doesn't mention restrictions, eh..."

Yun You licked her small tiger teeth.

"Why not... give it a try?"

[Go ahead and try it]

Master Zero casually said.

Practice leads to truth; without trying, Yun You would never understand the effect of this thing.

"Then I'll try it."

Yun You nodded and cautiously lifted the crystal, placing it on the scale imprinted with the lotus...

...

"Drip... drip..."

"Da da da..."

"Whoosh—"

Suddenly, the sky released rainwater, quickly turning into a torrential downpour.

Under the crystal's glow, the red scale turned an eerie pink, from whose crevices erupted pure white misty weapons. These semi-transparent mists ascended to the sky, enveloping the entire Floating Island in their presence.

Dimly, Yun You could see in the clouds various statues of Buddha—some dignified and solemn; others dilapidated; some resplendent yet internally decayed, and still more... persisted in unchanging golden bodies.

Yet Yun You was certain that each of these statues was incomplete.

Either lacking limbs or missing heads.

But this was trivial.

For soon, all the fragmented Buddhas coalesced into one.

From the clouds appeared a singular Buddha, not of a white jade aspect, but a contaminated real Buddha composed of flesh, bones, and overwhelming resentful power.

It gazed calmly at the world below, as if observing mere dust.

Then, the colossal Buddha's foot pierced through the clouds.

"Rumble...!"

The atmosphere was instantly compressed into visible circular ripples, the air igniting to try to stall the Great Buddha's descending foot.

But all was futile.

When the sole touched the ground, there was no roaring noise, as all sound was drained by the surrounding vacuum before it could emerge.

The hills beneath the Buddha's foot melted like chocolate, the already fractured crust completely shattered, exposing the steel structure foundations of the Floating Island.

Yet, whether intentional or not, the Buddha's stomp did not harm anyone, even the shockwaves appeared consciously avoiding Yun You and the others.

Yet Yun You was stunned.

"Karma... Karma Remnant Buddha?!!"

She stared blankly at the Buddha's foot, towering like a sky-high pillar before her, utterly convinced this was the Karma Remnant Buddha, and it was even larger than the one summoned from the Corpse Lake by Tian En earlier, with just a single foot covering half the urban area.

Finally, she understood what "Karma Lotus Descent" did.

This thing could actually help her summon a projection of the Karma Remnant Buddha...
