Of course, Song Lin doesn't engage in such practices; he absorbs energy instead of inheriting Shariputra, but the properties of the Shariputra make the energy easier to absorb.
The downside is that once the absorption is complete, the original Shariputra basically loses its spirituality and can no longer be bequeathed.
As time passes, the glow of the Shariputra becomes increasingly dim.
The clouds above the sky turn a pale gold, with sharpness piercing towards the heavens.
The earth's vegetation withers, the soil faintly glimmers with gold, and metal ores gradually form.
The three Great Demons feel as if needles prick their backs, and their foreheads throb with pain; the innate golden energy is too sharp. Cultivators of this path, even without magic artifacts, can destroy anything with just a wisp of golden energy.
Any magic artifact with gold attributes faces reduced effectiveness by at least thirty percent against practitioners of this Dao.
