Taiyi Dao Fruit-Chapter 1338 - 91: Human Dao Holy Sword (Part 2)

The Great Heavenly Venerate, who was once unmatched, is no longer invincible at this moment.

"Laughable!"

The Candle Dragon rose from the ruins of the palace, its upper body transforming into a human form, and sneered, "How could the daughter of the Human Race's Heavenly Emperor bow to an unrighteous ruler like you."

In myths, the Human Race often seems to play a supporting role, but in ancient times, the Human Race was home to many fierce individuals.

From the lords of the earth to the emperors of Heaven, countless beings fell at the hands of humans.

The Three Emperors, Five Emperors, Warlord, Xingtian, Da Yi... Many notable gods and demons, although some among them contained divine blood, all originated from the Human Race.

To truly compare, this Heavenly Emperor who rose later to power, occupying the faith, still falls short in credentials compared to the Three Emperors.

Nu Ba, as the daughter of the Yellow Emperor, might not necessarily submit to the Great Heavenly Venerate.

However, in today's world, the Three Emperors have yet to awaken, and even the rebirth of the Drought Demon Ba was entirely orchestrated by the Great Heavenly Venerate, which made him overlook this point.

Or perhaps, in the heart of the Great Heavenly Venerate, he, as the ruler of the Three Realms, is not beneath the Three Emperors, and it's understandable that the Drought Demon might align with him.

Besides, for gods and demons, familial bonds have long faded over the eons, so the Drought Demon making another choice is entirely possible.

Whatever the reason, the ultimate result is that the Great Heavenly Venerate was stabbed in the back.

When Fu Xi's True Spirit was bolstered by the power of incense, it withstood the suppression of the Great Heavenly Venerate and even began to counter, putting the Great Heavenly Venerate back into a tug of war.

"Primordial Qi, Shangqing Protecting Dao."

Feeling the backlash of the incense, the Great Heavenly Venerate shouted sternly, as a Pure Light emanated from the Heavenly Spirit, forming a mysterious talisman, suppressing the incense backlash on him.

The Primordial Qi Shangqing Talisman of the Upper Pure Sect!

After the destruction of the Upper Pure Sect, this talisman mysteriously vanished; Jiang Li had always speculated that the Great Heavenly Venerate had taken it. Now it seems, this was indeed the case.

The Great Heavenly Venerate's years of preparation were far from exhausted. While temporarily suppressing the backlash with the Primordial Qi Shangqing Talisman, his expression was full of severity, ready to manifest divine skills, "Even if I need to suppress Fu Xi and suffer the backlash of incense, defeating you is still as easy as flipping my hand."

The space that had been opened was controlled by his will, and with the Heavenly Killing Mechanism, directly aimed at the Great Venerable.

First, the nemesis of the Feng family must be slain.

But before the Great Heavenly Venerate could act, his advanced perception detected a threat of great danger.

He suddenly looked toward that Eight Trigrams Heaven and Earth.

······

······

The Eight Trigrams generated All Things, forming its own world, trapping Jiang Li within.

Moreover, the Sixty-four Symbols evolved into layer upon layer of killing intent, fully displaying the changes of Heaven and Earth, the principle of Yi Dao, crashing in.

The Eight Trigrams, created by Emperor Xi, have been passed down through countless years. Although the Great Heavenly Venerate is not like Emperor Xi in his exhaustive study of the principles of Yi Dao through the Eight Trigrams, he is still knowledgeable of this path. Hence, even without fully mastering the Dao Fruit, he can already combine the Eight Trigrams with his own [Enlighten Ten Thousand Heavens].

This is also the drawback of its widespread transmission.

From the Eight Trigrams derive Sixty-four Symbols, further evolving infinitely, endlessly.

Wind Roll, Water Flood, Thunder Strike, Fire Burning, Mountain Collapse, Swamp Sinking, plus Earth Split, Sky Collapse, the killing mechanism merged with Heaven and Earth becomes a calamity, determined to annihilate Jiang Li, reducing him to ashes.

It could even go a step further, with the Eight Trigrams potentially evolving into eight realms of Heaven and Earth, repeatedly attacking Jiang Li.

"Boom boom boom boom boom..."

Jiang Li wielded the Pangu Banner, slicing through the disaster after disaster, the True Sun Fire engulfing the Power of Wanxiang, continuously channeling into the Pangu Banner.

But no matter how mighty he is, capable of slicing through endless disasters, unless this realm is broken open, the disasters are endless. The Eight Trigrams form a cycle, seemingly self-contained, where all loss turns into new power.

Seeing this, Jiang Li gripped the Pangu Banner with one hand while intending to draw another Dao Artifact with the other to break open this realm.

But just at this moment, Jiang Li sensed fluctuations in time and space.

He gazed expressionlessly forward, as if his sight could penetrate Heaven and Earth, piercing through spaces, to see distant scenes.

"As expected indeed..."

Jiang Li said calmly, "An expected development indeed."

The right hand, which was about to draw the Green Duckweed Sword, reached forward, grasping the spatial fluctuation, probing into it.

His hand passed through space, reaching down from the sky elsewhere.

It was a vast lake area, where large and small islands dotted the eight hundred miles of lake.

At this moment, a great battle was taking place here.

The unmatched Sword Qi was sweeping through, annihilating one anomaly after another. Even with countless ancient texts interweaving continuously, they too were shattered one by one under that Sword Light.

Here was precisely where Daoist Guang Cheng and the Imperial College Sacrificial Officer were fiercely battling in Dinghu.

Jiang Li's hand descended directly from the sky, expanding hundreds of times, landing on a towering island mountain, grabbing the peak pointing directly at the Sky Dome.

"Rumble——"

A thunderous roar resounded, followed by the shaking of the earth and mountains, the seized peak constantly fracturing, large shards of stone skin falling, revealing ancient imprints inside.

On one side were Mountains and Rivers, the universe and starry sky, and on the other were Gods, Demons, Immortals, Devils, Great Ancient. The gold sword carried the marks of Heaven and Earth, the imprints of Gods, Demons, Immortals, Devils, representing the slaughter created during the rise of the Human Race, also representing the Holy Dao of the Emperor.

The sword of the Yellow Emperor, the most adept in slaughter among the Three Emperors - the Xuanyuan Sword, finally appeared in the world today.

This sword, which had repeatedly rejected Jiang Li, was now being slowly drawn by him. The sword tip embedded deep into the earth left the Heaven and Earth Furnace, the Earth Core True Fire with hot magma surged out, only to be instantly drained of heat, turning into pitch-black scorched stone.

Jiang Li was finally able to wield the Xuanyuan Sword, yet unfortunately, this did not bring him joy.

He merely expressionlessly drew this Sword of Slaughter, Holy Dao Sword, across the world and took it in his hand.

As Jiang Li reclaimed his hand, the Xuanyuan Sword had already shrunk to match his size.

At the same time, the pressure from Cause and Effect caused turmoil in the surrounding Heaven and Earth, where Heaven and Earth, with wind, thunder, water, fire, mountains, and swamps seemed like phantoms, flashing intermittently as if on the brink of vanishing.

In theory, once reaching First Grade, even if just barely crossing that line, for a Second Grade Dao Artifact, or Second Grade Divine Skill to affect him would be quite difficult.

But unfortunately, the essence of Dao Fruit is Cause and Effect, and the suppression of the Xuanyuan Sword functions precisely on Cause and Effect.

[Man's Will Overcomes Heaven: Defeat can be repeated, victory must also be repeated. All entities who have been defeated by oneself can never achieve victory again, and the Cause and Effect of defeat can never be erased. Attacks from the defeated will be suppressed to seventy percent of their power, while the strikes against them can be increased by fifty percent.]

[Man's Will Overcomes Heaven] finally unveiled all its information to Jiang Li, and Jiang Li did his utmost to firmly establish this Cause and Effect.

Though the Great Heavenly Venerate is strong now, as Jiang Li said earlier - "You can't beat me." The Great Heavenly Venerate had been defeated by Jiang Li before, more than once.

Facing the Great Heavenly Venerate, the Xuanyuan Sword might be even more effective than the Pangu Banner.

In terms of power, the Xuanyuan Sword might fall short of the Pangu Banner and Green Duckweed Sword, but in terms of suppression, it is specialized for that.

When Jiang Li wielded the sword, the torrent of Human Path also flowed ceaselessly from far and deep, bringing down an immense pressure of suppression, the weight of the Human Path, the history of the Human Path was overwhelming the Cause and Effect.

The essence of the Xuanyuan Sword's [Man's Will Overcomes Heaven] is precisely to suppress Cause and Effect with the torrent of the Human Path. It is a Human Dao Holy Sword, and rightfully so.

Jiang Li gripped the sword, swung it, and the thousand-zhang-long golden Sword Qi swept through the sky, the torrent of Human Path expanded alongside, annihilating Heaven and Earth!

"Boom!"

The Eight Trigrams were cut apart, the Sixty-four Symbols shattered simultaneously, even the entire Heaven and Earth split in two under the Xuanyuan Sword.

The golden Sword Qi extended infinitely, cleaving through all things, allowing Jiang Li and the Great Heavenly Venerate to meet again.
