Taiyi Dao Fruit-Chapter 1299 - 64: The Combat Acumen of Old-School Powerhouses

The Queen Mother of the West, before today, had already used the Immortality Elixir to restore her Primordial Spirit, and it was her Primordial Spirit that she had been using to manifest herself before.

Now, the dead vine drawn by the Great Venerable brought miraculous creation, mingling with the vitality of the Immortality Elixir, performing a shocking miracle. In a short period, a physical body was created, one that was compatible with the Queen Mother of the West's Primordial Spirit and capable of bearing her Dao Fruit.

Thus, the Queen Mother of the West was completely resurrected.

"I, have resurrected."

In a simple yet luxurious gown, her aura carried ancient thickness and divinity superior to the mortal world.

Upon her revival, the Queen Mother reversed her previously suppressed state. Though still not above Jiang Li, her Yin Yi Power had firmly established its footing.

The Queen Mother used Jiang Li's momentum to compel the Great Venerable to make a choice, aiding in her successful resurrection.

"Creation Whip?"

The Sun Wheel entered the mortal world, merging with the towering giant god's figure, as Jiang Li stood within the Great Sun, casting his gaze on the miracle-creating dead vine.

Ancient texts say, "When heaven and earth were first opened, there were no humans. Nuwa molded yellow earth to create people. In her laborious work, she was unable to keep up, so she drew a cord through the mud to lift and make people."

This Creation Whip is likely the "cord drawn through the mud."

Only such miraculous objects can assist in the resurrection of the Queen Mother of the West's physical body.

However, after the End of Dharma, even such divine objects like the Creation Whip struggle to regain their full strength. Now, helping the Queen Mother of the West to resurrect surely requires considerable consumption.

Moreover, after the Queen Mother's resurrection, the equal relationship she had with the Great Venerable will change, making it difficult for the Great Venerable to restrain her. Thus, the Queen Mother used Jiang Li's return to pressure the Great Venerable into making a choice.

Even...

"Is the current Queen Mother human or divine?"

Jiang Li gazed at the goddess who embodied Yin's beauty yet carried a familiar sensation, not rushing to make a move, instead asking.

The Creation Whip is an artifact of creating the Human Race, can it create the Queen Mother of the West's Divine Body?

The familiarity Jiang Li felt wasn't his intimacy with the Queen Mother but rather seeing human Qi within her.

The Queen Mother's form and appearance were shaped by Yin Yi Dao; from her appearance, one could sense some of her essence and see her achievements in Yin Yi. Therefore, when the Queen Mother's essence changed, her aura would also change.

If given time, the Queen Mother could cover this newly emerged aura, but she has no such time now.

"If my guess is correct, the Human Race should be more compatible with the Wa Emperor Dao Fruit than the God."

Another voice came, Ye Ru emerged from the Void, his words carried an encouraging tone and seductive magic power.

No, it's not encouraging because what he said should be true.

Legends say the Wa Emperor was an Innate god who molded earth to create humans. There is also a legend that the Wa Emperor and Fuxi were siblings, establishing the first human marriage post-catastrophe and giving birth to the Human Race.

As for the Wa Emperor being of the Demon Clan, being too wild should be categorized under unofficial history.

Anyway, in every aspect, the Human Race is certainly more compatible with the Wa Emperor Dao Fruit than the God.

Now that the Queen Mother of the West has resurrected with the Creation Whip, her physical body has transformed into the Human Race, sharing the same femininity with the Wa Emperor, even understanding Life and Death and Creation Ability. She no longer needs to worry about not being compatible with the Wa Emperor Dao Fruit.

But Jiang Li and Ye Ru will not help the Queen Mother of the West cover this up.

Since they are enemies, every method is used to attack, expose, and fracture the opposing fragile alliance.

The Great Venerable spares no means for the Emperor Xi Dao Fruit, and now, the Wa Emperor Dao Fruit is no exception.

Faced with these words of attack, the Queen Mother of the West carried a faint smile, neither hypocritically denying it nor calmly nodding, "Indeed, I do have an interest in the Wa Emperor Dao Fruit."

Her countenance remained calm, showing no signs of urgency, speaking slowly: "You two are indeed talent figures of the time, quickly grasping my thoughts. However, if you aim to sow discord between me and the Great Venerable, you might be disappointed."

Why, you ask?

It's naturally because Emperor Jiang is too strong.

"Great Venerable, can you see when Tathagata Buddha might return?" The Queen Mother of the West asked.

In response, the Great Venerable shook his head.

The Candle Dragon gazed at the Great Sun, sighing, "You have become stronger."

Seizing divine skills from the Great Sun Tathagata Fruit, the sunlight universally illuminates the Ten Directions, covering past and future.

At this moment, even the Great Venerable couldn't surpass Jiang Li's splendor to divine the future or perceive when Shakyamuni Tathagata might return.

It could be a day, two days... or the next instant.

Jiang Li's radiance blinds the world's exploration of the Void, making it tough for the Great Venerable to sense Shakyamuni Tathagata's Buddha's energy, even if Shakyamuni Tathagata might be very close already.

If Shakyamuni Tathagata's side returns, it will surely become a huge variable altering the battlefield.

But when will he return?

No one knows.

The Queen Mother of the West pointed this out, and the Great Venerable did not become a bad teammate, unaffected by the enemy's attacking words.

At least for now, he won't turn against the Queen Mother of the West, even if she covets the Wa Emperor Dao Fruit.

It can even be said that the Great Venerable, before this, already had an inkling of the Queen Mother of the West's intentions.

Cultivators are typically "too eager to advance," and the Queen Mother of the West is no exception.

Moreover, compared to the unreturned, even being refined by the Great Heavenly Venerate, Fuxi Dao Fruit, the Wa Emperor Dao Fruit is still in the Great Venerable's hands. The Great Venerable only needs to guard against it, unlike the myriad efforts required to reclaim the Fuxi Dao Fruit.

"Never expected a distinguished Queen Mother to harbor such dread towards me; it's truly flattering for me."

Jiang Li saw the Queen Mother of the West unabashedly revealing her dread, shaking his head.

To think you, one of the oldest goddesses, would have such fear of a junior like me, truly defying your noble status.

Unfortunately, Jiang Li anticipated her self-assuredness due to her status or newly regained power upon resurrection, thinking little of himself—hoping to surprise attack.

Yet this lady deserves her years, showing no flaws.

Is this the veteran power's defensive quality? Extremely troublesome indeed.

But this also reflects the strength of Emperor Jiang now, enough for such a presence as the Queen Mother of the West to proceed cautiously.

"In the end, it's still time for brute force."

As words fell, the water light suddenly shattered.

The water spirit light enveloping the Ten Suns, formed from the extraction of water from twenty thousand miles of sea by the Queen Mother of the West, shattered and steamed, broken through by the True Sun Fire.

The heavy pressure on the Ten Suns and Jiang Li's Divine Intent was being freed, even being counter-refined.
