Chapter 425: Unexpected Harvest

The gods consider problems from the perspective of the natives, so they have no scruples and only think about maximizing their own interests.

Xu Longyun considers problems from Lin Bai's perspective, but she comes from a background as a County Princess and considers things for Lin Bai according to the definition of the Lord of the Three Realms; she does not know what Lin Bai's needs are, which is why she is full of worries;

The players consider problems from their own perspective, naturally doing whatever feels good...

Everyone looks at problems from a different angle, so the conclusions reached are naturally different.

After all, everyone combines their own circumstances and hopes that things will develop in the direction most favorable to themselves.

All of this is perfectly understandable; there is no right or wrong.

If there is truly any fault, it should be the Game Company, and the system creator who sent themselves into this world...

Neither side is a good thing.

And standing from Lin Bai's own perspective, it does not matter which world collapses.

After all, he is from Earth, and apart from Xu Longyun and the others, he has no feelings for any of the worlds.

Even for the Xianxia World where he stayed the longest, he only spent a few months there, and they were months of running for his life, with three months spent on Tribulation Transcendence...

Of course, at Lin Bai's current height, unless the players possess the ability to destroy the world, they can no longer kill him simply by piling up numbers.

He can completely act as a boss who can never be defeated, regulating the development of both sides, living happily and freely between several worlds, messing around with players when he has nothing to do, or flirting with girls.

When he wants to hide and find some peace, he can just find an empty corner and hide safely for a period of time.

Life is rich and interesting, at least more interesting than how the Nine Heavenly Kings live...

Of course.

This might just be in line with the Game Company's wishes; after all, now that Lin Bai is actively participating and no longer looking for trouble, the game has started to run on its own.

It might also force the guys behind the system to come out, after all, the agents they cultivated have started slacking off!

But for now, the tasks that need to be done must still be done. Lin Bai must ensure that all the powerhouses are under his command. He must learn all the Skills; he may not use them, but he cannot be without them. The Ruyi of the Dream Heavenly King that can force players to delete their accounts is quite awesome...

"Husband, who do you think is right?" Xu Longyun could not win the argument against the others, so she turned to Lin Bai and asked for help.

"Everyone is right," Lin Bai said.

"Everyone is right?" everyone asked in unison.

"Xiaoyun, actually, things aren't that hard to solve, and there's no need to kill too many people. We are people of the Righteous Sect; killing too many people will damage our reputation. So, if we can avoid killing, we shouldn't kill. My persona cannot collapse."

Lin Bai glanced at the players who were watching them livestream with undivided attention, smiled slightly, suddenly stopped talking, and used an Oracle to project his consciousness into the minds of Xu Longyun and the others, "I just said it. If they want to play, then accompany them to play."

Our Fazhe Zhidao is not just for show. Players are different from Celestials; they have gender distinctions. Once the players enter the game, find a few goddesses who cannot be killed and are fast, such as the Earth Goddess, and use Phoenix Seeking Phoenix; that should at least be able to keep half of the male players quiet!

Phoenix Seeking Phoenix is a law; there is no limit to the number of people. At most, we can make billions of male players perform talents for a period of time. Most of those who are combative are men; if we settle them down, the remaining women will be much easier to deal with. When they behave, we will let them out again. If they don't behave, we will just keep making them perform talents. As long as there is life, there is talent. We have plenty of time, don't we? How wonderful, it neither kills people nor leaves hidden dangers."

The gods were stunned.

Xu Longyun widened her eyes: "This works too?"

"Of course, don't say anything about this matter. No need to let them know; just do it when the time comes," Lin Bai looked at the players livestreaming again and smiled, "The Game Company is too rogue, lest we say it out loud and they add a patch on the fly."

"Alright, that can be considered a way to solve the problem." Xu Longyun nodded blankly. Her mind was a complete blank, and she subconsciously looked at the only player on the scene. A trace of sympathy appeared in her eyes; Lin Bai's method was much crueler than killing them; it was simply the most brutal punishment.

Players are restless; making them perform talents endlessly would probably drive them crazy...

A string of ellipses floated across the bullet comments, followed immediately by an explosive discussion:

"What are they doing?"

"What did Lin Bai just say? We can't hide any of our movements from Lin Bai, why can't he be open and honest? He's not that kind of person!"

"Is there anyone who knows lip-reading? I urgently want to know, how does Lin Bai want to deal with us? Using the God of Curses?"

"Lin Bai didn't open his mouth, read what lip-reading."

"How could the God of Curses be that powerful? If he were really that powerful, Lin Bai would have used him to deal with the Earth Goddess and the Abyss Master long ago."

"I think Lin Bai is just trying to scare us? How can there be a way to solve the problem without killing anyone?"

"Right, it's just a Soul Bewitching formation; Lin Bai is best at this trick."

"My heart is itching!"

"This is a good thing, everyone can breathe a sigh of relief. Although Lin Bai is unreliable in his actions, he basically doesn't change what he promises, so he won't go on a killing spree in reality! As long as we all enter the Game Capsule, by then, it will be too late for him to make a move."

"I still want to know, how is Lin Bai going to deal with us?"

"Why don't we list Lin Bai's Skills and use the exhaustive method to infer what means Lin Bai will use to deal with us?"

"Idiot, there are no telling how many of Lin Bai's fans are among the players. Discussing it here is just clearly telling Lin Bai how to deal with us!"

"Don't worry, I won't say anything. You guys should list them! I'm also curious how you guys will deal with my brother."

"Fans get out."

"I seriously suspect Lin Bai is fishing."

"What about the remaining players?" Alei Ya asked.

Lin Bai glanced at her and continued to use the Oracle to transmit his voice: "Zhaofeng, marriage, repeat this process. It's nothing more than my Disciples working a bit harder, but coordinating with you gods, it shouldn't be that difficult..."

Gulp!

Xu Longyun swallowed her saliva. She suddenly felt that no matter how many players there were, it wouldn't be an issue. According to her husband's way of torturing people, no matter how many people there were, they would all be brought to heel by him!

"So, do you all understand?" Lin Bai smiled.

"Understood." The gods smiled in unison.

"There's nothing to be afraid of, right!" Lin Bai shook his head and continued, "This world is just a game; who plays it and who doesn't? Alright, everyone go do your work! Immigration and such, prepare what needs to be prepared. We must use multiple methods; this is the time to test everyone's coordination ability. My focus will still be on the Immortal World; I'll leave the game's open beta to you all."

"Husband, we have no problem." Xu Longyun smiled and nodded vigorously, "I will make contingency plans for every situation that might happen."

Jin Tianwang's Skills were all drained by Lin Bai.

Jin Tianwang, who was almost dizzy from the transfer, looked blank. After he sobered up and noticed the changes in his body, he was shocked: "Lin Bai, you actually wiped out all my Skills?"

"To be precise, they didn't disappear; they were transferred to me. This complies with the law of conservation of energy." Lin Bai smiled at him and said, "Xiaojin, go back. Bring a message to the Dream Heavenly King: if you want to suffer less torture, don't resist. The more you resist, the more painful it will be."

Having finished speaking.

Without waiting for Jin Tianwang to respond, Lin Bai turned the Holy Sword in his hand, wiped away his head, and directly cleared his health bar to zero.

Keeping this blank slate in hand was useless; it was better to send him back to the Immortal World, which would also count as one more mark.

……

Shui Tianwang and Huo Tianwang also failed to escape Lin Bai's poisonous hands; Shenmo Dalu was Lin Bai's home turf, and with many gods and deities present, the isolated Heavenly Kings were lambs waiting to be slaughtered, with absolutely no chance to resist.

At this moment.

The players' focus was entirely on the national open beta, and they were no longer as concerned about the fate of Shui Tianwang and the others; they were looking forward to their own futures more.

After finishing off the three Heavenly Kings, Lin Bai had four Law Sacred Artifacts in his hands: the Thunder Hammer, the Holy Sword, the Scepter of Fire, and the Holy Grail.

However, Lin Bai was in no rush to find trouble with Meng Tianwang, instead using Shadow-Following to arrive directly behind the War God.

He also recruited several gods of the Yuanyuanjun under his command; with the Earth Goddess and the Lord of the Abyss acting as lobbyists, the several gods surrendered cleanly and efficiently, without any hesitation.

He had subdued all the gods of Shenmo Dalu.

The War God System sent a task completion notification: 【…Conquer those false gods and let the War God's prestige spread throughout the world (Completed); Reward: Law Heaven and Earth (Already issued)】

Having obtained a new Skill, Lin Bai did not hide it and conducted an experiment on the spot.

Then, he made a fool of himself in front of everyone.

After using Law Heaven and Earth, Lin Bai's body instantly expanded into a giant ten thousand zhang tall, comparable to the lightning giant in Thunder God Descent.

It was a pity there were no Hulk-style shorts.

The moment Law Heaven and Earth was completed, all the clothing on his body was burst apart.

He stood between heaven and earth completely bare, with everything seen by others.

Fortunately, the Spirit Fruit and Temperament Fruit had long since sculpted Lin Bai's body into something perfect and peerlessly charming; the moment Law Heaven and Earth displayed his physique, his fan count surged by a huge margin.

After the superstar task was released, Lin Bai's fan count was no longer being tallied. The reason he knew the number had increased was that the divine power of his many clones, which had divine sparks embedded in them, had skyrocketed; besides an increase in Faith, there was no better explanation.

For a moment, Lin Bai even considered continuing to display himself in front of the camera using the Law Heaven and Earth body to keep harvesting Faith points!

After all.

This way of increasing strength was simply too easy.

But reason stopped his greedy thoughts.

He was a real man; if he was going to do it, he would be a powerhouse, not an idol...

Moreover.

Displaying a perfect body to hundreds of millions of people was too shameful.

Law Heaven and Earth did not increase Spiritual Power; what it increased was the strength and durability of the physical body, by at least three thousand times.

The moment he transformed into a giant, Lin Bai even felt he could rely on brute force to flatten mountains and snap rivers; that was true brute force.

Strength was secondary; what was terrifying was the body's durability. Without any protection, a god's weapon could only barely manage to cut his skin, and only Jin Tianwang's Holy Sword could harm him.

And once Lin Bai tensed up, his own defense would increase by thirty times, and even the Holy Sword could not break his skin.

The War God of the Gods and Demons World was already burly enough, but compared to Law Heaven and Earth, he was just a little brother, especially when Lin Bai used Three Heads and Six Arms; he truly looked like an ancient god or Buddha resurrected, which was awe-inspiring.

The only regret was that a body ten thousand zhang tall not only lacked suitable clothing but also lacked a handy weapon; fighting bare-handed seemed a bit low...

……

"Damn, what is Lin Bai doing? Is this his ultimate form?"

"Coming to the Real World in this form, he could wipe out a whole area with one slap; he wouldn't even need Skills to be a World Destroyer."

"Is he showing off to us?"

"Who's afraid of him? Ants can bite an elephant to death; in an age with magic, being big doesn't mean it's useful."

"Bite an elephant to death? You couldn't even bite his elephant nose..."

"Don't you dare imply anything about our Brother Lin."

"What a perfect body, I'm a fan, I'm a fan."

"Knowing there's a live stream and still doing this, he's too showy, it's really enough!"

"You're clearly just jealous of our brother; even if you can customize your face in the game, can you customize such a perfect body? Brother's body is original..."

"So what if it's perfect? It's not like you can eat it, right?"

"Brother Lin is too doting on his fans, such an unexpected treat."

"I'm so damn jealous! He has strength, he has a body, why do all these good things happen to Lin Bai?"

"If Lin Bai doesn't die, we male players will never have a chance to get ahead."

"Sisters, did you take screenshots? Post them on the forum for everyone to admire!"

"Listen up, people of the Anti-Lin Bai Alliance: from now on, Brother is under our protection. If you dare to cause trouble, don't blame us for being impolite."

"Sisters, for Brother Lin, let's level up! We can't let them ruin our beauty..."

"……"

"Damn, Lin Bai is too shameless. To divide us, he actually used a beauty trap!"

"He really dares to use any trick."

"Dogs who slander Brother Lin, get out. Don't let me meet you in the game, or I'll kill you every time I see you."

……

The live stream bullet comments had always been the home turf of male players.

Because the fans' comments were simple and repetitive, they were meaningless and usually filtered out by everyone, making them invisible.

But this time, nothing could suppress the madness of Lin Bai's fans.

All rational voices were completely suppressed.

Tens of millions, hundreds of millions of fans conquered the entire bullet comment section; Lin Bai's fans were dying to pounce on the screen and lick it.

……

"Senior Sister Yun, this must be Husband's strategy for dealing with female players!" Jiang Qingqin was also watching the livestream, and looking at the female players going wild in the comments, she said with a blushing face, "The sacrifice is too great!"

"Master's physique is amazing." The little white fox stared blankly at Lin Bai's Law Manifestation, her eyes filled with hearts.

"Hmph." Xu Longyun looked at the giant Lin Bai on the screen, then turned her head to look at the Lin Bai avatar acting as a bodyguard beside them, her face burning hot.

Her gaze swept across the screen, seeing the messages from the crazed fans, seeing those comments slandering her and saying she was unworthy of Lin Bai, and she felt dissatisfied in her heart.

However, Xu Longyun was also unwilling to be jealous of tens of millions of female players; after all, it was Lin Bai who had taken the initiative to display his body.

All she could do was cover the little white fox's eyes, while simultaneously forcing herself to be comforted, "Husband has his own plans; recruiting a large group of players for us in this way is not bad either, it will save us a lot of effort."
