"I must thank the Daoist Lord. If Zhuang Zhou's Dao Fruit had been in Daoist Lord's possession, I wouldn't have gotten it so easily."
Jiang Li steadied himself, his wounds rapidly healing, even his Qi chanism recovering.
The combination of the three Dao Fruit Divine Powers, [Nourishing Life Master], [Green Emperor Longevity], and [One-foot Hamr], with Jiang Li's own cultivation technique, was enough to let him fight until his mind was exhausted and his thoughts unmoving.
Even the Daoist Lord felt a sinking feeling in his heart upon seeing this situation.
However...
"Essence, Qi, and Spirit, as long as the consumption doesn't exceed fifty percent, can imdiately recover. This must be the divine power of Zhuang Zhou's Dao Fruit."
The Daoist Lord sensed Jiang Li's Qi chanism and slowly said, "A consumption below fifty percent is no issue for you, but if it exceeds fifty percent, it takes additional ti to recover. This should be the effect of the combination of [One-foot Hamr] and [Nourishing Life Master], and there might be other divine powers involved."
Zhuang Zhou's Dao Fruit originally belonged to the Daoist Lord, only later falling into the hands of the Awakened One.
Back then, Jiang Li was able to tamorphose Zhuang Zhou's Dao Fruit, obtaining [One-foot Hamr] and [Nourishing Life Master], by acquiring part of the Dao Fruit from the Awakened One. In other words, the Daoist Lord was aware of the information of Zhuang Zhou's Dao Fruit, at least partially.
And in the earlier exchange, even if there was missing information, it was filled in.
If the consumption is above fifty percent, it takes a mont longer to fully recover. If above seventy-five percent, even more ti is needed. Thereafter, as consumption nears one hundred percent, the increase in recovery ti grows.
As the Daoist Lord's voice fell, Essence Qi flowed uninterruptedly into his body, stabilizing his aura, unceasing and persistent as if it eternally existed.
The Valley Spirit never dies; it is called the mysterious female. The gateway of the mysterious female is called the root of Heaven and Earth; continuous and barely existing, yet utilized without weariness.
Though the Daoist Lord had not yet reached the state of immortality, through the Nine Heavens Demon Clearing True Technique, he could achieve continuity and persistence without effort. His injury recovery speed might not match Jiang Li's, but his power had inexhaustible potential and recovered extrely quickly.
This is precisely why the Daoist Lord could swiftly retrain the extinguished Three Pure Ones Primordial Spirit.
Even without using [Daoism Rules the World] to suppress Jiang Li, his own strength was unmatched. Moreover, this was while he was threatened by Jiang Li and Tianxuan, leaving a Primordial Spirit on Kunxu Mountain.
The battle was far from over.
'But stopping the Daoist Lord shouldn't be a big problem.'
Jiang Li thought silently, Sword Qi coalescing into form in his hand, the Jiangshan, Sheji, and Fuli Cangsheng scene appearing on the sword.
The myriad forms of the Nine Provinces were to manifest upon this sword.
At that mont, a change occurred within the Buddha Land Space. The seven Buddhas stood side by side, Buddha Light shining universally, the Pure Saint's aura seemingly suppressing the Sixth Desire Realm.
The clash between the Awakened One and the Karma Tathagata had shown clear signs of hierarchy.
This shift stirred everyone's nerves, even revealing a towering figure.
"Luo Hou!"
Sunlight Bodhisattva saw this figure and imdiately shouted, "Stop him; he could be the dwelling prepared by Karma Tathagata!"
The Awakened One perfected the [Buddha's Scripture of the Strongman Moving Mountains] to the extent that his physical body could withstand the Yin Yang Dual Swords of Daoist Guang Cheng without active defense, illustrating the might of his physique.
He had a physical advantage over Karma Tathagata, who likely aid to compensate for this.
Coincidentally, the Fire House Buddha Hell housed another who perfected the [Buddha's Scripture of the Strongman Moving Mountains]—Luo Hou.
Even if Luo Hou's physical body wasn't as formidable as the Awakened One's, it should compensate significantly for his disadvantages.
"So it's you, Asura."
Sun Wukong's Fire Eyes Golden Eyes focused on Luo Hou, the Jingu Bang suddenly raised, "Perfect, I wasn't satisfied with our last fight; let's have another round this ti."
Last ti, Sun Wukong had just revived when the Fire House Buddha Hell forced the Awakened One out of seclusion. Sun Wukong guarded the No Buddha Temple, fending off enemies from all sides, but was briefly ensnared by a certain notorious troublemaker using an array, forcing the Awakened One's exit.
This ti, it won't be so easy.
The Golden Monkey lifted the mighty Jingu Bang, smashing it down the heavens, where beneath its strike, space shattered into earth, water, wind, and fire, demonstrating boundless violence.
Yet Luo Hou showed not a hint of defense, rely forming a hand seal to summon a massive roulette.
When the Jingu Bang descended, sword light traversed the skies, crisscrossing, with its sharp edges clashing on the Jingu Bang, producing a thunderous ringing.
It was Taibai True Monarch!
Indeed, this figure was present, rely concealed in the shadows, unseen until now.
Sword shadows cut through the air, revealing three figures within the intersecting Sword Qi. They simultaneously channeled Sword Qi, sequentially deflecting the Jingu Bang, causing its impact point to shift.
These figures all bore the likeness of Taibai True Monarch.
"One Qi to Three Pure Ones?"
Seeing this, Sun Wukong chuckled, "Your One Qi to Three Pure Ones isn't quite there, and your sword takes an unorthodox path. The Three Pure Ones Primordial Spirit should grow and live together, but you train one at a ti. It's not authentic, not authentic at all."
The Fire Eyes Golden Eyes clearly discerned the presence of one real and two virtual entities; Taibai True Monarch consisted of the main body and two Primordial Spirits.
The monkey waved his hand, the Jingu Bang quivering, shattering all Sword Qi, then drew a circle in mid-air like a whip, striking down again.
Taibai True Monarch prepared to strike once more, but suddenly, an unexpected edge approached from his side.
"Dang——"
A sword suddenly appeared at the side, with the Yin Yang Dual Swords penetrating the shadow of the sword, striking this sword, different Sword Qi, similar sharpness bursting forth, the sound of clanging resonating.
"Taibai Fellow Daoist's 'Wan Guchou' has a life of its own, able to sense enemies and block them, truly opening my eyes to such wonders."
The late voice reached the ears, as Daoist Guang Cheng arrived in a golden light.
It was he who used the Yin Yang Dual Swords to intercept the Taibai True Monarch, preventing Taibai True Monarch from making a tily move.
With Taibai True Monarch's interception gone, the Jingu Bang fell, shattering the virtual shadow of the roulette, the unmatched strength directly striking Luo Hou.
Third grade attacking fourth rank, even though Luo Hou is a pinnacle within the fourth rank, with hopes of becoming like Jiang Li and being supre within the fourth rank, it was difficult to withstand such a heavy blow. In theory, it was supposed to be so······
But in reality——
A massive Asura form floated behind Luo Hou, its features grotesque, engulfed in black flas, the upper body human-shaped with four arms, the lower body entwined with multiple dragon tails, displaying ferocity.
Luo Hou······or rather, Luo Hou's complete form!
Luo Hou was one of the Asura Kings, disguising as a Heavenly Deity with illusion techniques, drank Immortal Nectar and was sliced in half by the Divine Wheel of Vishnu among the Three-faced Gods. At that ti, the Immortal Nectar hadn't completely taken effect, causing Luo Hou to be separated into two parts but not die.
The upper body beca Luo Hou, the lower half beca Jidou, transforming into a star in the sky that chases the sun and moon.
Now, Luo Hou's form had restored to its complete state, signifying the fusion of Jidou and Luo Hou's two Dao Fruits, with his dual arms extended, actually blocking the Jingu Bang with his flesh.
"Boom!"
Flesh flew, bones shattered, even with Luo Hou's powerful physique, it couldn't withstand the ferocity of the Jingu Bang.
The dual arms were broken, but another pair of arms intercepted below, bearing the brunt force, forcibly stopping this strike.
At this ti, Luo Hou's upper body suddenly grew another pair of arms, and his lower half transford into multiple dragon tails. His figure swelled, towering like a mountain in the blink of an eye, even lifting the exhausted Jingu Bang.
The mysterious black flas that extinguish light burned fiercely, making the sun-obscuring surroundings even more gloomy, the Qi chanism of the Asura King sweeping all around, displaying strength beyond the fourth rank.
This is——third grade!
A century ago, Luo Hou was already fourth rank, now showcasing his power in a third-grade form, the flying flesh like ti reversing, returning to his arms, regrowing broken arms, overflowing with vigorous energy like dark red blood mist surrounding his body.
"Good, good, good, this is interesting enough."
Sun Wukong wasn't daunted by the massive demon body, shouting good continuously while his form rapidly expanded, bellowing, "Stop that troublemaker."
The voice spread far to Tianxuan, Gongsun Qingyue, and Primordial Lord Rain Master's direction, prompting the trio to gaze at the Great Venerable.
No need for more words, hearing 'troublemaker,' just fix on the Great Venerable.
Still dressed as the fourth king of the Fire House Buddha Hell, the Great Venerable heard the sound and seeing Tianxuan and others vigilant expressions, couldn't resist shaking his head, "I say, sister-in-law, no need to be so cautious towards brother."
This 'sister-in-law' wasn't clear who it referred to, but both Tianxuan and Gongsun Qingyue took it as referring to themselves.
Gongsun Qingyue chuckled lightly, "Brother might want to change clothes before speaking."
The Great Venerable was still wearing the attire of the Fire House Buddha Hell.
Additionally, Sun Wukong now wielded both Fire Eyes Golden Eyes and Six Ears, capable of comprehensive transformation, understanding celestial and terrestrial benefits, discerning truth, knowing past and future, his perception exceptionally keen, few in the world could rival.
Since he said to stop the Great Venerable, it indicated that the Great Venerable intended to stir up trouble again.
"Could a re change of clothes signify brother wants to misbehave?"
The Great Venerable feigned grievance, pretending to change clothes, "Brother will change clothes right away."
As he spoke, he reached to unbutton, but his form suddenly faded at this mont.
The Great Venerable indeed intended to cause chaos.
Tianxuan was about to act but before she could, the Heavenly Monarch, who kept a distance from that side, waved his sleeve from afar.
Space imdiately stagnated, making it difficult to move, and a beam of white light suddenly descended on the Great Venerable.
"Please, treasure turn around."
White light streaked across, an object with eyes and brows circled around the Great Venerable's neck, and a head flew off.
The Heavenly Monarch··· he actually acted against the Great Venerable at this mont!
Clearly, the Heavenly Monarch was allied with Taibai True Monarch, intending to slay the Awakened and claim the incense of the Buddha Country for himself, yet suddenly turned against the Great Venerable, who could join hands temporarily again, remarkably unexpected.
Besides, could the Great Venerable just die like that?
"Seems, there's a third party involved."
The flying head of the Great Venerable mouthed, the Cosmic Light rewinding around it, the head reversely traveling its trajectory, returning to the body.
However, the Heavenly Monarch's form was also already flickering close.
With all things in hand, the world in his grasp, the Heavenly Monarch unleashed a palm that surpassed ti, striking the body of the Great Venerable before the head and body could reconnect.
