Taiyi Dao Fruit-Chapter 1123 - 347: Force Pierces the Void

"Heavenly Monarch, today you succeed because of human nature, but you also fail because of it."

As Jiang Li spoke, his Divine Thought left his body, clashing with the resonance around and attempting to unsettle the Heavenly Monarch's mind to attack his heart.

The actions of Taibai True Monarch completely exceeded the Heavenly Monarch's expectations. He thought he understood human nature thoroughly and calculated people's emotions accurately, but he failed to calculate his own heart.

Regarding the Daoist Lord and Jiang Li, the Heavenly Monarch could be said to have grasped their mindsets quite accurately. However, regarding Taibai True Monarch, whom he considered a mere pawn, the Heavenly Monarch failed to understand clearly.

Or rather, he didn't use the same Heart Power on this matter.

Perhaps calculating the Daoist Lord and Jiang Li left the Heavenly Monarch no time to consider Taibai True Monarch, or perhaps it was simply due to arrogance.

When facing other people, the Heavenly Monarch rarely refers to himself as "I," only when facing a supreme being, he always uses "I" for self-reference.

His arrogance is quite evident.

Though it seems the main reason lies with Taibai True Monarch, the true cause lies within the Heavenly Monarch himself.

Jiang Li aims to attack the heart of the Heavenly Monarch with this.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Monarch is not Taibai True Monarch, even though Jiang Li pinpointed the crucial point, he still couldn't break the Heavenly Monarch's defense.

The massive shadow gradually solidified, almost indistinguishable from the True Body, except the face was a blur, transforming into light and mist, hiding the true appearance, revealing only a pair of translucent pupils and a vertical eye in the middle of the forehead.

Just judging by these three eyes, it resembled Jiang Li quite a bit.

"You say, you are here not to rescue the Daoist Lord, but to deal with me..."

Three gazes simultaneously fixated on Jiang Li, "Then come."

Since Jiang Li has come here, he wouldn't let the Heavenly Monarch easily leave. Without the Heavenly Monarch, and after Jiang Li is gone, the combat power between the two sides would favor the court, and the battle must have already commenced.

Moreover, Jiang Li's intention to act was as clear as can be. As he said, he came to confront the Heavenly Monarch.

And the Heavenly Monarch, he doesn't wish to leave either, for he also wants to see Jiang Li's strength.

After Jiang Li sealed the Great Venerable, he needed to constantly output Primordial Qi to maintain the seal, theoretically inferior to the Heavenly Monarch. But after that, Yi Dao advanced, and if someone thinks of his name, Jiang Li immediately becomes aware, now even countering the Heavenly Monarch's move.

This failure didn't shake the Heavenly Monarch's mind, but it did heighten his vigilance to the maximum.

Daoist Lord was now severely injured, in the short term, the only one who could threaten the Heavenly Monarch was Jiang Li. As for that monkey, though strong, it's insufficient in confronting techniques.

Sun Wukong, though possessing the 72 Transformations, primarily uses them for evasion rather than defeating enemies. Direct confrontations rely mostly on the Jingu Bang.

The primary function of the 72 Transformations is disaster evasion, not enemy overcoming.

That is why Sun Wukong went through numerous trials on the Western Tour, having superior strength over enemies, yet often calling for reinforcements.

The Heavenly Monarch might not know the monkey's past, but he clearly sees Sun Wukong's small weakness. Capturing Sun Wukong may be impossible, but finding a way to restrain him is achievable.

So, only Jiang Li remains.

As the thought flickers, the Heavenly Realm has already changed.

Jiang Li's figure also underwent transformation simultaneously.

The Yellow Emperor's Four Faces when confronting, never allows its form to be at a disadvantage. Almost the moment the Qi Mechanism was incited, Jiang Li transformed into a towering figure.

Fatian Xiangdi has flawlessly merged with the Form Tomb, allowing Jiang Li to perform Divine Skills without a thought.

The aura of the two erupted instantly, causing a massive upheaval around them. All Things flashed past, an automatic evolution of the Heavenly Realm, manifesting Jiang Li's own cultivation technique.

Both had cultivated Form Tomb and Qi Tomb, even receiving the power of the heavens. From a certain perspective, their foundations have quite a bit of similarity. As they acted, a similar transformation immediately occurred.

When their aura and momentum were reaching the peak, without needing further words, both seized the best opportunity to strike.

"Buzz—"

The Heavenly Realm trembled, space wailed, two colossal figures raised their palms simultaneously.

No time to use extra moves, no thought to cast Miracle Techniques, only simple, unadorned power to truly test the other's foundation.

The massive Handprints clashed overhead, instantly cracking the Heavenly Realm with numerous fissures, the solemn and sacred virtual shadow of the Heavenly Palace dissipated in a moment.

Unlike the Daoist Lord, Jiang Li is in his prime, despite needing to allocate some power to maintain the seal, he still possesses world-shattering strength, not to be suppressed by the Heavenly Monarch.

The Heavenly Monarch previously battered old injured people, now he faces a young, healthy person in his prime; naturally, the situation is different.

"Boom!"

In a thunderous crash that shook the heavens and earth, space quaked, and instantly the Heavenly Realm emitted a crisp sound, shattering into countless fragments.

The three reappeared in the world outside, Qi Mechanism pervading heaven and earth, sweeping across all directions.

The Heavenly Monarch's colossal figure suddenly became a phantom, melding into the surrounding heaven and earth, formless and intangible, seemingly one with the universe.

Jiang Li remained unmoved, Primordial Qi around his body transformed, Innate Qi and All Heaven Divine Sha merged into one, forming Taixu's Body, delivering a pristine and unadorned punch.

The force of the fist penetrated into the Void, in the collapsing space, the Heavenly Monarch's figure appeared suddenly.

Jiang Li impressively pierced through the void with Perception, directly locking onto the Heavenly Monarch's true form.

The figure in the void reacted swiftly, raising another palm to meet the Taisu Fist.

Within the palm appeared All the Things of Heaven and Earth, All Things residing within the form. The Heavenly Monarch's form at this moment resembled that of the Nine Curves Yellow River Formation, yet far more profound and unfathomable than that day. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

It's almost as if the heavens assumed human form, every movement carried the weight of a universe.

"Boom!"

The shock occurred upon impact, yet before the aftermath could take shape, the figure vanished once again.

Jiang Li at once shifted positions, Taixu's Body formed by Primordial Material erupted with grand power, surpassing a certain limit yet showing no visible force, embodying the unperceived might of the elephant.

One's every movement displayed All Things in the palm, the other fundamentally simple and unadorned, fists embodying the unperceived might of the elephant.

Their clash caused space to be inadequate to bear their weight, mountains and rivers unable to withstand their power.

Jiang Li, much like an entrant cultivator, every step and fist was a straightforward palm strike. Yet every step crossed seemed like a mountain, each punch broke into the void, fracturing space.

The other party struck horizontally from the void, with extreme power coming from exceptionally unique angles, displaying unmatched Daoist attainment and formidable Power.

After ten consecutive steps, ten massive black holes appeared mid-air, two figures respectively moved within reality and the void, clashing through space, with every collision penetrating the space, showcasing immense destructive power.
