I, the leader of the esoteric sect, am doing great things in the infinite world!

If you don't know, that's even better!

A ruthless glint flashed in Li Lin's eyes. As soon as Pandora finished speaking, he used the same trick again, grabbing a lump of metallic paste and slapping it on Pandora's face. Then he delivered a low kick, tripping her and sending her sprawling to the ground.

This time, Pandora seemed to be on guard. Although she was still ambushed by Li Lin and fell to the ground, she endured the pain and rolled a long way on the ground before quickly disappearing from sight.

If they were ordinary god-slayers, they would already be in dire straits, since Pandora, who performed the ritual, had run away, and they, already severely injured, were practically doomed.

But Li Lin doesn't need Pandora to perform the ritual for him.

A dark green tabletop rose up in front of him, and a huge mass of molten metal fell onto the tabletop, sparking brilliant flames.

The flames then went out, and the progress of the [Starfire Prayer] upgrade became 2/9.

Pandora's rituals are more complex than the advanced rituals of the secret tradition, and they do not guarantee the transfer of all powers.

Now, the powers of this so-called "Great Sage Equal to Heaven" have been completely transformed into the side abilities under the "Spark Prayer". In other words, Li Lin has independently completed the "ritual".

I looked up and heard a commotion coming from not far away.

Then they saw Pandora, with swollen eyes and red eyes, leading a big man with ram's horns and dressed in hemp clothes towards them.

"Boy..." The burly man in hemp clothing showed displeasure, counting on his fingers, "How dare you—"

"Is this your father?" Li Lin asked Pandora, pointing at the burly man.

The burly man in hemp clothing froze as he was counting on his fingers, his expression turning awkward.

"No way!" Pandora stamped her foot.

"So this is your husband?" Li Lin's eyes widened. "He doesn't look stupid."

"You brat, how dare you say such rude things!" the burly man roared in anger. "Pandora and I are completely innocent..."

"Huh?" Li Lin looked at Pandora with a knowing expression. "Miss Pan, you wouldn't want a video of you having a secret rendezvous with another man in the Netherworld to be burned in front of your husband's statue, would you?"

"No way!" Pandora gritted her teeth, glaring angrily at Li Lin. "Let's teach this disobedient child a lesson, Mr. Yu."

The burly man, referred to as "Royal Husband," narrowed his eyes, then quickly revealed anger, a cold glint in them: "So smug after killing that monkey? Looks like I need to teach you a lesson on behalf of your mother..."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Li Lin used the same trick again, spitting in his face and then kicking him with a crowbar!

The Emperor, or Susanoo-no-Mikoto, was, after all, a rebellious god from a thousand years ago, and possessed powers similar to lies and deception. He quickly closed his eyelids to avoid being smeared with saliva, but the effect of startling the god was unavoidable.

The shocking effect took hold, and Susanoo was also tripped and fell to the ground. Li Lin leaped up and punched him mercilessly.

Having probably not expected to be ambushed by his "junior," Susanoo was momentarily stunned, and awkwardly questioned, "You, you rebellious son of Japan—"

“I’m your father.” Li Lin interrupted with a sneer. “Didn’t you say you were going to teach me a lesson? Today I’m going to the underworld and fuck your mother to death.”

As he spoke, Li Lin rained down punches and crowbar blows, forcing Susanoo to cover his head and beg for mercy.

The rules of the Netherworld are somewhat strange. Li Lin needed time to familiarize himself with them since he was a first-time visitor. As a result, he was unable to immediately summon the Lament Spear and the Heart's Delight Sword. He could only use the crowbar he was most familiar with to beat Susanoo. Although Susanoo was in pain and ashamed, he was not in any danger to his life.

The scene was quite chaotic and rather unsightly.

Even Pandora, who was watching, was startled for a moment. It took her a while to react before she rushed forward and grabbed Li Lin, pleading, "Don't make the same mistake again!"

337 I don't know what the main quest is, I only know who I have to fight.

Amidst the chaos, footsteps approached from outside, and several people came together.

Leading the way was a young princess with stunning beauty, wearing a twelve-layered kimono and a magnificent headdress. She had a pair of beautiful, empty eyes that looked like crystal.

Beside the princess with the glassy eyes was a monk with a emaciated figure, like a mummy. He was wrapped in a black robe, his cheeks were sunken, and he held a string of prayer beads in his withered hands.

In addition, there are some amorphous followers. These fairies living in the underworld often follow hermits and become their servants.

"What have you done?!"

The black-robed sorcerer's voice trembled, and his withered arm, like a tree branch, emerged from under his robe, pointing at Li Lin.

Princess Liulitong's calm expression also fluctuated drastically.

“Then naturally…do what a god-slayer should do!” Li Lin said, shoving his stick into the struggling Susanoo’s buttocks. “You better behave yourself.”

"You—let go of my beloved husband!"

The black-clad mage rushed forward, unknowingly stepping into Li Lin's attack range.

The next instant, Li Lin raised his head and struck the black-clad mage to the ground with his crowbar, pointing it directly at Princess Liuli Tong: "Who's next, you?"

"Let go, they mean you no harm." Princess Liuli Tong said helplessly, reaching out her left hand to pull Li Lin away, but then withdrew her hand when she saw the black-clad mage rolling on the ground.

After all, the black-robed sorcerer who attained Buddhahood in this lifetime wasn't particularly handsome, and no one would pity her if she fell to the ground. But if she were to be tripped up by Li Lin's sneak attack, then...

"I smell curry."

Li Lin said in a sarcastic tone.

"Could you please not use your butt-wiping hands to get near me? Help, folks! I'm telling you, you're absolutely awful! I'm telling you, folks, I really will thank you. Seeing your butt-wiping hands makes me feel like I'm a complete traitor, utterly speechless. I really will thank you, I'm really done for. Can't you go back to your Indian hometown? You're truly an absolute traitor, folks. That's how women are."

Princess Liulitong was caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to pull her or not.

But Li Lin's words were correct. Although she was wearing a magnificent twelve-layered kimono, she was not a native Japanese deity, but Sita, the wife of King Rama, the protagonist of the Ramayana.

Sita appears in the Rigveda and is worshipped as the goddess of agriculture; she is personified in the Yajurvetava; she is described as Savidri in the Tithiriya Brahmaputra; she is considered the wife of Indra in the Parasakara Sutta; and in the Ramayana, she is the daughter of Chanaka, whom Chanaka found in a furrow, so the earth is her mother, hence her name.

As Rama's wife, she went to the forest with him when he was exiled and suffered with him; she was also abducted to Lanka by the Rakshasa king, but she always maintained her chastity.

To rescue his wife, Rama allied with the monkey kingdom. With the help of the monkey god Hanuman and his troop, they finally defeated the demon king and rescued Sita.

Rama doubted Sita's chastity, so he made her throw herself into a fire to prove it. The fire god lifted Sita out of the raging flames, proving her chastity. However, popular belief held that Sita was not a virgin and unworthy to be queen, so Rama abandoned the pregnant Sita on the banks of the Ganges.

Sita, in desperation, cried out to Mother Earth for help, saying that if she was chaste and pure, she should ask the Earth to take her in.

Suddenly the earth split open. Sita plunged into the earth's embrace.

The origins of myths are always unclear, but one thing is certain: in ancient times, the female earth goddess was the common source of worship for all myths.

These earth goddesses always appear in a mixed form of dragons and snakes.

In various mythologies, the changes of the main gods are always described in an ambiguous way, and the destruction of the female earth goddess worship and the replacement with the male sky god worship is even more vague.

However, it is known that as the myths of those female earth goddesses ceased to circulate, their status plummeted. Magicians referred to them as god ancestors, meaning dragons and snakes that were once earth goddesses but have now been dethroned.

Japanese shrine maidens are actually priestesses who inherit the bloodline of the Earth Mother Goddess. Even in the era when the bloodline was most prosperous, the official history compilation committee never had more than twenty shrine maidens at the same time.

After being swallowed by the earth, Sita actually entered the Netherworld, where she became a god again. In the Netherworld, she drifted to the secret realm corresponding to the Japanese archipelago, where she, along with Susanoo and the black-robed monk, became the guardians of the present-day Japan.

This is why, despite being a deity in India, she is depicted with the physical adornments of a Japanese goddess.

"You're being too presumptuous, kid."

Suzumaki shouted angrily, shaking Li Lin off his lap, and wiped his face with his hand in anger.

"As a god-slayer born in Japan, you show no respect not only to your mother, but also to us who protect the archipelago—"

"Yes, I did it all, so what?" Li Lin sneered. "How dare you say such things? Do you really think I'm one of you Japanese pirates?"

"Want to take action?"

Pure white antlers sprouted from Li Lin's head, golden-purple twilight wrapped around him like a ribbon, the fragrance of hawthorn blossoms was incredibly strong, and his lowered eyes were filled with deep purple.

His figure appeared gaunt in the golden-purple twilight, like a door that had not yet been opened, its sharp edges almost cutting into the eyes.

That is a divinity that is similar to, yet not identical to, the disobedient god, but fundamentally different.

Susanoo alone sensed multiple, complex divinities, such as Minerva and Athena, emanating from the person before him, but it was not a clumsy imitation of them—quite the opposite.

That is an even more ancient source, a divinity that transcends names like Minerva, Athena, and Sully, more ancient, more powerful, and more pure than them.

Its divine aura was so intense that it seemed not to be a disobedient god who had stepped out of mythology, but rather a true deity who bore the destiny of heaven!

Suzumaki retreated warily, and everyone kept their distance from Li Lin.

Pandora, in particular, has fallen into chaos.

She had no knowledge of the powers of Sichen Double-Horned Axe and could only classify Li Lin as a disobedient god, but how could a disobedient god usurp the powers of another disobedient god?

"You, no, who exactly are you?" Susanoo asked warily after retreating to a safe distance. "There is absolutely no need for us to fight!"

Li Lin squinted, and intense purple light overflowed from his lowered eyes, forming wisps of light that danced and scattered in all directions.

The more this was the case, the less Susanoo dared to act directly—he was no longer the unruly god he was a thousand years ago, but the "Go-o-gong" (old man) enshrined by the official history compilation committee, the ruler of Japan behind the scenes under the alias of the Three Noble Sons.

“You are not a citizen of Japan, are you?” Sita suddenly spoke up. “You should be one of the beings of China.”

Zhendan is the Indian name for ancient China.

Susanoo finally understood why Li Lin had beaten him so badly earlier.

338 I can't think of a question again.

Susanoo suddenly realized that he was in a difficult situation.

He knew he wouldn't get the better of Li Lin if he fought him—the appearance of this god from the Land of Sunset was far superior to that of the disobedient gods who huddled in the Netherworld.

Running away, this is his hometown—it's a bit embarrassing to back down in his own home.

Like a constipated customer who had taken Wallace's, he was restless and could only lean against the telephone pole with a stern face, not daring to even sneeze.

Li Lin's inaction puts immense psychological pressure on him.

The less action is taken, the more anxious these disobedient gods become.
