Taiyi Dao Fruit

Chapter 156: Returning the Favor (Part 2)


This is directly consuming power, sacrificing the foundation, to exchange for the power to deal with the enemy.

Jiang Li's "Carry Mountains and Chase the Sun" divine skill suppressed the sun, not only hiding the great sun in the sky, but also removing himself from the Sun-shooting Bow's targeting range. For him, Jiang Zhuyang was not the threat; it was the Sun-shooting Bow.

But Jiang Zhuyang sacrificed his cultivation body, forcibly unleashing the power of the Sun-shooting Bow, causing the might of Heaven Piercing Sun to burst forth. The white light, like the line where the sea meets the sky, split the heavens and the earth and tore through the darkness.

In less than the blink of an eye, it broke through the Divine Evil, piercing a hole in the chaotic scene.

The chaotic scene was formed by the destruction of All Heaven Divine Sha, and when the Divine Sha was pierced, the figure inside was revealed. Jiang Zhuyang's divine thought focused, sensing that silhouette, and his heart relaxed.

As long as Jiang Li was in this direction, this attack was sure to hit.

However—

Before the arrow light, Jiang Li's figure suddenly split in two, and this arrow passed straight through. The arrow, which could traverse eight hundred miles in an instant, was easily evaded.

Immediately, the two figures merged again, and the shattered Divine Sha formed a giant hand, sweeping across.

"Boom!"

Jiang Zhuyang used the Sun-shooting Bow to block horizontally. The third grade Dao Artifact could withstand the All Heaven Divine Sha, but the residual force of the Sha Jin still impacted.

"Eight-foot Mirror."

The copper mirror glowed, and the radiance like a sun wheel covered Jiang Zhuyang's body, only to be shattered by the Divine Sha.

In an instant, the light flickered and vanished, like a sun reaching its end, and a distressing crack appeared on the Eight-foot Mirror.

"Hand it over."

A hand reached out from the darkness, grasping the Sun-shooting Bow, and Divine Sha and Innate Qi erupted simultaneously.

"Boom!"

The air waves surged, illuminating a bright space in the darkness. Jiang Zhuyang exerted all his strength, with the Innate Eight Qi entwining the Sun-shooting Bow like a flood dragon, while he himself firmly grasped the great bow and looked towards the other person holding the Sun-shooting Bow.

——Jiang Li!

Jiang Li was also holding the Sun-shooting Bow aimed at the sun, looking at Jiang Zhuyang with an expression that seemed to both smile and not smile.

"This bow and arrow, you can't handle it, let me, as the Family Head, take it."

Family Head? "I?"

The Jiang family's Family Head possesses the authority to establish a family, enjoying the position of a prince, and can refer to oneself as "I"...

Such a simple sentence filled Jiang Zhuyang with hostility, but at this moment, he had no time for anger, only focused on retrieving the Sun-shooting Bow.

Without this Sun-shooting Bow, Jiang Zhuyang could not only have no means against Jiang Li, but even his own power would be greatly diminished.

"Emperor Yan's Blood."

Without hesitation, he used the forbidden move. His blood burned like fire, the Innate Eight Qi roared out from his Qi Sea, like eight furious dragons, bombarding Jiang Li.

However—

Jiang Li remained unmoved.

It was as if waves crashed upon a mountain, but the mountain remained unscathed, while the waves shattered, causing his own qi and blood to churn.

Fierce blood surged, Jiang Zhuyang's face flushed bright red, his whole body seeming to burn, while the All Heaven Divine Sha mercilessly struck back, destroying the Innate Eight Qi entwined around the Sun-shooting Bow, suddenly twisting.

The arm Jiang Zhuyang used to grasp the Sun-shooting Bow instantly turned into blood mist.

Intense pain swept over his body, further stimulating his mind, and the unwavering murderous intent and fighting will that Jiang Zhuyang had from start to finish seemed to reveal a crack. His face twisted fiercely, yet there was a trace of horror and retreat in his eyes.

"Your injury······"

The injury from the Sun-shooting Bow had actually healed. Otherwise, how could Jiang Li so easily suppress him?

So quickly?

Even at third grade, it shouldn't be possible to recover so quickly from such an injury, let alone Jiang Li being fourth rank.

Although the Sun-shooting Bow is also only a third grade Dao Artifact, and not yet integrated by a cultivator, due to its restraint over sun attributes, the injury it causes shouldn't allow Jiang Li to recover in just a year and a half.

Such rapid recovery was completely beyond Jiang Zhuyang's expectations.

No possibility of success, retreat!

Rationality prevailed at that moment, but Jiang Zhuyang was shocked to find that the murderous intent in his heart surged like tides, making him reluctant to retreat.

This······

'Did I fall into deviation? When did it happen?'

If not for deviation, why would he be so impulsive, unable to wait for other assistance and directly confront Jiang Li?

If not for deviation, why was he still unwilling to retreat at this moment?

At such a crucial moment, Jiang Zhuyang's mind was in chaos, unable to decide whether to retreat.

Meanwhile, Jiang Li had already taken the Sun-shooting Bow, with a thought, the surrounding Divine Sha transformed into a giant claw, grasping toward Jiang Zhuyang's head.

It seemed Jiang Li intended to capture this eldest son of the Jiang family alive.

After all, being the son of the previous Family Head, and now a fourth-rank of the Jiang family, his intelligence value was significant. Capturing him alive and extracting the information from his mind would allow Jiang Li to understand the current situation of the Jiang family.

However, just at this moment, a black void cracked open above Jiang Zhuyang's head, and a golden hand reached out from it.

"Stop!"

The bellow was like the roar of a lion, the golden hand exuding an unbreakable solidity, boldly confronting the giant claw.

The clash of palm and claw swept the All Heaven Divine Sha across, only for the golden light to shatter, the Divine Sha destroying the golden hand like scraping away decayed wood, still falling towards Jiang Zhuyang's head.

"Vajra Nature, so it's Vajrapani Bodhisattva of the Buddha Country."

Jiang Li chuckled softly: "If the true body of Vajrapani Bodhisattva came, he might exchange a few moves with me, but if it's only an External Dharma Form, don't disgrace yourself."

In the Yin World, physical bodies cannot pass through, and although Vajrapani Bodhisattva is not lacking in other aspects, his foundation is in his physical body. If his true body had come, he might withstand a few strikes from the All Heaven Divine Sha, but an external form, a manifestation of divine thought accumulated from incense offerings, should not be taken seriously.

The sweep of the Divine Sha didn't just destroy the hand, but also damaged the Dharma Form emerging from the black void,

Yet the giant claw still descended, the Divine Sha having already enveloped Jiang Zhuyang, who resembled a monkey in the palm of the Tathagata Buddha, unable to escape.

However, at this moment, Jiang Li's gaze shifted, and the All Heaven Divine Sha suddenly intensified, erupting from within him like a flood tide, not caring for Jiang Zhuyang's life or death, intending to bury everything ahead.

For in the black void, a roulette shadow descended, merging with Jiang Zhuyang's body.

"Amitabha."

The grand Buddhist chanting echoed, yet carried an eerie ghostly energy not matching Buddhist tone, as the roulette spun, the golden light like a wall, blocking the Divine Sha.

"Bang!"

The giant claw and Divine Sha struck the golden light simultaneously, causing a severe distortion in the black void, even cracking the surrounding space, forming web-like fissures.

The destructive force of the All Heaven Divine Sha shattered the structure of space directly, but the roulette suppressed the collapsing space, and in the confrontation, the space where Jiang Zhuyang was contracted sharply, as if seized by a giant hand, pulling back.

"Benefactor, apologies."

The six figures on the roulette spoke in unison, retreating with the contracting space, while the seized Jiang Zhuyang finally suppressed the distractions in his mind, looking up at Jiang Li.

That gaze concealed an unquenched ambition, as well as the intent to kill Jiang Li.

His gaze towards Jiang Li was tinged with hostility, and even a blind man could sense the covetousness.

For Jiang Zhuyang, possessing the Han Zhuo Dao Fruit, nothing was a more suitable enemy than Jiang Li. As long as he could kill Jiang Li, overcoming his superior, Jiang Li's current achievements would be his future.

Though defeated today, it did not mean he couldn't make a comeback in the future.

The premise was he must survive until that future.

Jiang Li and Jiang Zhuyang stared at each other coldly, with the All Heaven Divine Sha transforming into Innate Qi, pouring into the Sun-shooting Bow in his hand, refining it instantly.

Then, he condensed an arrow from qi, drew the bowstring, and the pure white cold qi arrow was aimed ahead.

"Heaven Piercing Sun."

Jiang Li murmured softly, and the arrow light pierced through space, destroying the solar attributes.
