Taiyi Dao Fruit-Chapter 1248 - 33: The Strongest Dao Fruit, the Strongest Shackle

Above the East Sea.

A huge Candle Dragon suddenly appeared in the sky dome, with time reversing with his arrival, restoring the damaged islands to their previous state, even some already dead devil cultivators were revived.

"What a pity."

The Daoist Lord who destroyed the islands slightly shook his head and then said, "What a delight."

The pity was that these destroyed islands were easily restored, which showcases the advancement of the Great Venerable's Cosmic Light Divine Ability.

As long as the Great Venerable doesn't die, these seventy-two islands and even overseas earth veins will be a major threat to the Divine Country.

The biggest drawbacks of array formations historically are twofold, one is the time to set up the formation, the other is unlike cultivators, once any part is broken, it can only be repaired after the battle. However, the Great Venerable's Cosmic Light Divine Ability perfectly resolves these two shortcomings.

As long as he doesn't die, the formation won't break.

As for the delight, naturally, it's the Great Venerable returning without success.

Thinking of this, the Daoist Lord laughed heartily, didn't continue to entangle further with the Great Venerable, lightly flicked his sleeves, and rode the clouds away.

The Great Venerable did not obstruct him, just quietly watched the Daoist Lord leave, and on his plain-like huge palm, the universe star river evolved from the Book of Luo River Map continued to operate incessantly.

A moment later, the Great Venerable slightly closed his eyes, shielding the brilliance in them, returning the world to its original brightness, and said solemnly, "Emperor Jiang successfully ascended, the Great Heavenly Venerate also escaped alive, I failed in intercepting this time."

Whether in timing or angle, the Great Venerable chose them perfectly, living up to the name of the world's number one troublemaker, alas, his enemies all possess extraordinary skills.

Not to mention the Great Heavenly Venerate's countless cards, even the post-ascension power surge of Jiang Li doomed the Great Venerable to failure.

This time Jiang Li ascended, his power surge defied both science and metaphysics, even with the Great Venerable's Yi Dao attainments it was completely unexpected.

Being able to retreat intact is already fortunate, has not the Great Heavenly Venerate lost not only the Green Duckweed Sword but also sacrificed one hand?

"However, he ascended to Emperor Yan's Tao Fruit," after finishing his words, the Great Venerable added another sentence.

Following his speech, there was a reply from the universe star river formed by the Book of Luo River Map, "Fortunately, he ascended to Emperor Yan's Tao Fruit."

A simple sentence, yet seems to contain some profound meaning.

This voice couldn't be distinguished whether it's male or female, or even characterized by any features, carrying a mechanical flatness, after mentioning Jiang Li, revealed another secretive matter pertaining to the present, "Three Tathagatas in the Buddhist domain have reunited, soon there will be movements."

Following the words, the Book of Luo River Map evolved into numerous scenes, seemingly with traces of Buddha images flickering through.

Pity, those few are all Second Grade, with extremely high realm, still powerful beings from before the End of Dharma, even now with Great Venerable's Dao Fruit ascending, advancing in Yi Dao, the cause and effect of those few cannot be figured out.

If now is the era of universally Sixth Brother, then before the End of Dharma it was the era of universally Yi Dao masters. In that era of clear heavenly mechanisms, orderly heavenly cycles, Yi Dao masters could predict futures spanning thousands, even tens of thousands of years.

Without such calculating divination ability, one couldn't survive at the top in that era.

Now, post-End of Dharma, in the Five Turbid Evil World, although those old-timers can't reverse knowledge of the future, they still cannot be underestimated. It's through the Book of Luo River Map that the Great Venerable captured a few traces, even unable to probe further.

Going further, they would be detected by the opponent.

However, relying on the Book of Luo River Map, the Great Venerable still sensed some signs.

"The Dao of Buddhism seems to be rising, it appears the Tathagatas in the Buddhist domain won't continue to remain dormant."

The Great Venerable communicated with the Book of Luo River Map in spirit, deducing a possibility, then said, "Before those two make moves, I may face a siege first."

Emperor Jiang ascended, following there must be major movements.

The Great Venerable understood Jiang Li.

Jiang Li perhaps lacks much ambition for power, but his desire for control is extremely strong, absolutely tolerates no one threatening him. Now he's ascended, regained the invincible throne, next should be sweeping through all enemies.

First, naturally occupying overseas Great Venerable.

Expanding the dominion's territory can further elevate Jiang Li's power, whether in Heaven or Mortal World, Jiang Li would make moves. Considering the Great Venerable's threat, Jiang Li would most likely prioritize campaigning against the East Sea.

If the Tathagatas' movements precede, then it's alright, should the two lack movements in short order, Jiang Li might first eliminate the Great Venerable.

"Understood." That voice comprehended.

Wanting to resolve the predicament is both difficult and simple. Either fight with Emperor Jiang and stop him outside the East Sea, or have the two Tathagatas in the Buddhist domain act first, increasing the threat level.

In that case, Jiang Li would target them first, allowing the Great Venerable to continue exerting his strengths.

After finishing this sentence, a light shadow gradually faded away in the universe star river, seeming like that mysterious presence is severing the connection, before ending he reminded once more, "Beware of Shen Hou, his Dao Fruit might hinder the master."

While speaking, an information flew out of the Book of Luo River Map, received by the Great Venerable.

Afterward, the typically aloof face of the Great Venerable changed somewhat.

"I am truly... indebted to you bunch of old foxes."

The name of Shen Gongbao before the End of Dharma wasn't universally known, but those with some experience were aware.

As a result, those resurrected old-timers, each and every one of them knew the harm of Shen Hou's hindrance, but none informed him. Others aside, even theoretically allied The Queen Mother of the West didn't inform him.
