"Boom!"

The Yin Yang Qi spiraled in a violent strike upon the Taixu Cloud Qi, causing the cloud to completely scatter before crashing onto Jiang Li.

Jiang Li resisted the Yin Yang vortex, retreating swiftly. The Taixu's Body seemed to tend towards transforming into Taiji. Striking Taixu with Yin Yang caused Taixu to transition into Taiji, then divide into Yin Yang. By then, Jiang Li might not even preserve his physical body, being divided by the Yin Yang Qi into pure Essence Qi.

Previously, Jiang Li used the Taixu Tao to fiercely beat the elder; now he was facing a reverse beating from the elder.

"The beating was not endured in vain."

The figure of the Daoist Lord descended onto the back of the Green Bull, stroking his beard with a smile.

Previously, Jiang Li fiercely beat the elder at the cost of a Dao Primordial Spirit, yet from being beaten he discerned some roots of the Taixu Tao.

Taixu and Taiji are unified entities; Taiji can reverse-train Taixu, and Taixu can also evolve into Taiji. With a high-reaching Realm, the Daoist Lord discerned the link between the two, now breaking Taixu with Taiji, completely gaining the upper hand.

Jiang Li's figure retreated, the space behind him just encountered Taixu Qi, collapsing, but a few steps later, the signs of collapse vanished.

Jiang Li's body erupted with sounds of wind and thunder, even flashes of electric glow as the Taixu Qi gradually transformed, the resistance causing bursts of noise.

Black and white colors appeared on the pristine white body, as Jiang Li was about to be completely knocked from Taixu to Taiji, his retreat suddenly stopped.

"Boom!"

Like a giant elephant shaking the ground, Jiang Li stopped with one foot, the earth cracked beneath him, his previously leaning body slowly stood upright under the strike of the Yin Yang vortex.

"One Qi Transforms Three Thousand."

Layer after layer of Qi walls appeared before him, totaling three thousand. Each layer though is not strong, able to block Yin Yang vortex only temporarily. Yet breaking through a thousand Qi walls, transforming Taixu Qi into Taiji, the surrounding black and white Qi clearly put Jiang Li at advantage.

Innate Qi merged with All Heaven Divine Sha, twisted inward, reversing and crushing the Yin Yang Qi, transforming into Taixu Qi.

From Taixu to Taiji, then Taiji back to Taixu, the Yin Yang vortex shrunk, momentarily disappearing within Jiang Li.

Nourishing Yin Yang, transforming into Taixu, Jiang Li not only retained his Taixu Body but absorbed Yin Yang Qi, further advancing the Taixu Tao.

At this moment, both foe and ally turned their gaze toward Jiang Li, their eyes revealing undisguised astonishment.

Jiang Li's Divine Skills had recovered!

The foundation of "One Qi Transforms Three Thousand" was through the recovery ability of [One-foot Hammer], instantly erecting three thousand Qi walls, each consuming less than fifty percent power. Under the effect of [One-foot Hammer], power consumption below fifty percent equaled zero, hence the lavish use of True Qi.

Jiang Li's ability to use this move could only indicate one thing: his Divine Skills had returned.

Daoist Lord's [Daoism Rules the World], finally met a time of ineffective effect.

"Daoism Rules the World, the ghosts aren't divine, even the Emperor Yan's Tao Fruit Divine Power is hard to block, both being third grade, yet so strong and domineering, truly hard to comprehend."

Jiang Li held a sword in one hand, with the other blocking ahead, the last thread of Yin Yang Qi in the palm slowly disappeared, "But if we add another point, it's not hard to understand."

[The suppression of Daoist Lord's Divine Power had two aspects: one is directly nullifying the Dao Fruit's Divine Power, and the other, Jiang Li originally thought was the Dao Fruit's suppression. But now, he realized it wasn't suppressing the Dao Fruit directly, but the Dao Fruit system cultivators.]

[That was suppression from a single source stream.]

"Taoist Ancestor."

Jiang Li's gaze rested on the Daoist Lord, speaking slowly and steadily: "Not the Taoist Ancestor legend of the End of Dharma era, but the Taoist Ancestor who founded the Dao Fruit cultivation method after the End of Dharma. The source stream of today's cultivation path combined with [Daoism Rules the World], together make even [Primordial Human] this kind of Divine Skill subject to suppression by the human attribute Dao Fruit Divine Power."

"The fortune of this Dao Ancestor is now upon you, making [Daoism Rules the World] become nearly an unresolvable Divine Skill."

Compared to the original masters of first and second grade Dao Fruits, even the original master of a third grade Dao Fruit, this Dao Ancestor might not seem formidable, but he indeed is an ancestral source of one Dao.

The fortune of this Dao Ancestor seems trivial, not increasing Power nor slaying enemies, but combined with the Dao Fruit and [Daoism Rules the World], it becomes a powerful weapon against Dao Fruit system cultivators.

In today's world, whether righteous or evil, regardless of god, demon, humans, or monsters, which cultivator isn't from the Dao Fruit system? Even a reborn powerhouse like Sun Wukong, reborn through Dao Fruit, borrows the Dao Fruit system to be resurrected.

The Daoist Lord, seated on the Green Bull, calmly listened to Jiang Li's words, saying, "Fellow Daoist holds great secrets within."

The Daoist Lord had already regarded Jiang Li highly, yet it was still not enough. Or perhaps, no matter how much importance, Jiang Li still found a breakthrough.

Because, Jiang Li held great secrets.

The Daoist Lord didn't know what the secret was yet, but the source of the formidable suppression power of [Daoism Rules the World] wasn't something Jiang Li could discern alone.

The world's known effects of this Dao Fruit Divine Power, with countless thoughts on solution strategies, like the Heavenly Monarch, who devised specific countermeasures after losing to the Daoist Lord back in the day.

But even the Heavenly Monarch hadn't revealed the secret of [Daoism Rules the World].

The effect of this divine skill is so simple, so simple that it makes one overlook the secret behind it.

This secret is hidden so deeply that even the supreme ones have not noticed.

Until now, it has been revealed by Jiang Li.

"This secret cannot really be considered a secret," Jiang Li said with a smile, "I was able to advance so quickly in such a short period of time; surely everyone has been speculating that I possess some hidden secrets, am I right?"

Even the most talented must have a limit, and everyone present was a person of extraordinary talent and stunning genius, each with some expectation of the limits of talent.

Well... it could be said that rather than believing Jiang Li is someone who surpasses limits and defies logic, one might as well believe that he possesses a great secret, which allows him to rapidly advance in the Dao Fruit while also fully tapping into his potential, even advancing courageously through the realms.

The latter is the common sense, while the former defies common sense.

And as it turns out, their guess was correct, Jiang Li indeed possesses a great secret.

However, when these words come from Jiang Li's mouth, the credibility suddenly takes a hit.

Someone who claims to treat people with sincerity, yet constantly misleads with sincerity, whatever is spoken from his mouth, even the truth, may have to be interpreted in reverse.

Furthermore—

"Fellow Daoist, this secret of yours is truly a secret," the Daoist Lord said, shaking his head.

It's no secret that Jiang Li carries a secret, but what his secret actually is, no one knows.

As he spoke, the Daoist Lord dismounted from the bull for the first time, standing firmly on the ground.

This seemed to also represent an attitude of going all out.

"Is it time to make a move?"

Jiang Li held his sword, his eyes shining, the Divine Palace opening between his brows, and the Heavenly Eye appeared, "Do you not want to speak of where exactly this Daoist Lord's fortune comes from?"

Is this Daoist Ancestor Qi Fortune inherited by some special method?

Or does it simply originate from the Daoist Lord himself?

If it's the latter, then the depth of his Daoist journey may still be indefinable.

"Fellow Daoist, are you willing to explain how you broke free from the suppression of divine skills?" the Daoist Lord countered.

The answer, of course, was not to be given.

Jiang Li's gaze fell forward, onto a book that only he could see.

Solve the suppression of [Daoism Rules the World], it is both simple and difficult to explain.

The Karma Collection records various causes and effects, including changes in Jiang Li's own state, and it was from the gathered causes and effects that Jiang Li found the true source of suppression and conceived a method to solve it.

[Daoism Rules the World], combined with the Daoist Ancestor Qi Fortune, suppresses even the divine skill of the same third grade, [Primordial Human (residual)]. As long as the enhancement from Daoist Ancestor Qi Fortune is undone, the divine skill of Green Emperor Dao Fruit is enough to exempt Jiang Li from the suppression by Human Attribute Dao Fruit's skill.

Ultimately, fortune is also a link in the chain of causality.

Jiang Li once used the Karma Collection's ability to rewrite causes and effects to remove portions of causes from the Emperor Dao Fruit, reverting the fruit to its original form, and now he used the Karma Collection to sever the causal ties pertaining to the Dao Fruit cultivation system, using Eight-Nine Profound Skill to obscure causes and hide effects to prevent the causes and effects from reconnecting.

In this way, he was no longer a member of the Dao Fruit cultivation system, thus lessening the suppression by [Daoism Rules the World] by one fold, weakening its power. What remained, supported by [Primordial Human (residual)] and [Green Emperor Longevity], which is the prototype of [Longevity and Eternal Prosperity], was enough to restore Jiang Li to his peak state.

Simple in steps, but if this were known, hardly anyone else could achieve it, and it might expose Jiang Li's greatest reliance.

"Forget it, let me verify personally, just where does this Daoist Ancestor Qi Fortune come from."

With those words, the map of the Nine Provinces emerged behind Jiang Li, his Qi Mechanism became eternal like the heavens, vast like the earth, as wide as the sea, with the phenomenon of heaven and earth gathering upon himself, combining the merits of the Three Emperors into one.

The long sword left his hand, flew into the sky, transforming into a red giant star, reflecting against the Great Sun in the sky and the Sun Dharma Form, like three suns in the sky together.

'Without even using [Oral Heavenly Constitution], they were able to display such phenomena, he...' The Great Venerable watched this scene, his heart filled with waves.

On the other side, the Heavenly Monarch observed the future with the divine skills of Tan Wuwei to understand the situation, his heart was similarly stirred, 'Jiang Li... has already stepped across that line.'

Compared to the Great Venerable, the Heavenly Monarch could more surely grasp the situation.

Previously, Jiang Li forcibly crossed that line using [Oral Heavenly Constitution], manifesting Fatian Xiangdi by his capabilities, discerning the similarities and differences with divine skills, and was afterward suppressed and demoted in realm by [Daoism Rules the World].

Yet the insights of that period had been gathered by the Karma Collection, only lacking a bit of cause, causing the effect to be slightly off.

Now with his divine skills restored, Jiang Li reached his peak again, crossing over anew, yet without the aid of divine skills, arriving at a new realm.
