Chapter 751: 73 chapters Heaven's Will
Jiang Li had been sculpting his Mental State and amending himself with the Karma Collection since the beginning of his cultivation. Later, he even experienced the Yellow Millet Dream, where he spent Jiazi years, and was further supported by various Dao Fruit Abilities, which only then allowed him to achieve a Mental State capable of swaying people's hearts.
Zhang Zhixuan's plot had failed. The Heavenly Monarch was clearer than him about the potential weaknesses of the Yin Talisman Scripture and even utilized it against Earth Uncle.
As for Earth Uncle...
"A wizened old man, a gray-bearded old thief, how dare you compare yourself to me?"
Jiang Li exclaimed proudly.
"You've grown arrogant." Tianxuan couldn't help but laugh and scold upon hearing this.
At the same time, a thunderous voice resounded.
"Ridiculous!"
It was Earth Uncle in the distance who had heard Jiang Li's words, scoffing incessantly, "A mere child, dares to claim his Mental State surpasses mine? Ridiculous to the extreme!"
Although distant, Earth Uncle's strength allowed him to hear Jiang Li's voice from anywhere within the Treasure Extreme Cave Heaven, as long as Jiang Li did not deliberately conceal it. Earth Uncle's judgment of him was clearly conveyed into Earth Uncle's ears.
And Earth Uncle's reaction was as expected. Upon hearing Jiang Li's words, he dismissed them with a sneer, refusing to believe that Jiang Li's Mental State could surpass his own.
How long had Jiang Li cultivated, and how long had Earth Uncle cultivated?
The former's tenure paled in comparison to even a fraction of Earth Uncle's, how could Earth Uncle believe Jiang Li's words?
Furthermore, the one speaking was the inherently evil Jinping from the Jiang family, which further reduced the credibility and increased the insult, making Earth Uncle even more incredulous.
Annoyed in his heart, his originally imperceptible and traceless Qi began to fluctuate, detected by nearby Handprints. Suddenly, weather phenomena erupted within the Cave Heaven. Mountains, plants, sun, moon, wind, and thunder all appeared, creating an extraordinary vision that formed a map of the vast territory of the motherland and pressed towards Earth Uncle.
The majestic Qi Mechanism filled the heavens and the Earth at this moment, revealing a tip of the iceberg of a Supreme's strength.
Even if it was just a leftover Handprint, it could be considered a casual strike, and its Power was enough to make a third grade be extremely cautious. How Jiang Li dealt with ordinary fourth-rank, a Supreme dealt with ordinary third grade.
Despite both being third grade, the difference between them could be like heaven and Earth.
At least, the current six strongest indeed lived up to their name.
Thinking thus, the former Family Head of the Jiang family, Jiang Tao, understandably died silently. The gap in their strength was huge, and the Heavenly Monarch may have ambushed him without regard for Martial Virtue.
However, Earth Uncle was not afraid.
"Bring it on."
The old man with white hair and beard snorted, as Yin energy howled forth, filling the heavens and the earth, colliding with the imposing Qi Mechanism. His majestic body was replaced by a colossal shadow.
In the black mist formed by the Yin energy, Earth Uncle revealed his Divine Demon Body, standing over one hundred and fifty zhang tall, taller even than Jiang Li's Fatian Xiangdi.
A pair of sky-piercing horns as if forged from lava protruded from the black mist, showing a stone color with red magma flowing over the horns, forming winding red streams. His gigantic body was looming within the black mist, where one could vaguely see a human-like bovine body and a fierce tiger head.
The Ji Family's "Form Tomb" could transform oneself, perfectly matching the original owner's body type with the Dao Fruit. Earth Uncle had cultivated the corresponding Divine Demon Body using this and had abandoned his own name, calling himself "Earth Uncle," perfectly matching the Dao Fruit.
Now that he had shown his body, he truly resembled the Ancient Demon God Earth Uncle reincarnated. A pair of giant hands reached out of the black mist, red and bloody, one could even see the Yinming Sha Qi transforming into blood dripping from the hands, dissipating in mid-air.
"Open!"
Earth Uncle bellowed, his blood-colored hands poised to grasp the map of the vast territory formed by heaven and earth, and with a fierce grab, he managed to seize it, then tore it apart forcefully.
"Hiss—"
The entire Cave Heaven Blessed Land echoed with a sound like tearing silk, the vision of heaven and earth transformed by the Handprint was torn apart forcibly, the Yin energy bursting forth and dissipating the remaining force, with only sparse Vigorous Qi trickling down like raindrops.
Indeed, Earth Uncle's disposition had worsened, but he had also grown stronger.
Lacking the capacity to control the "Yin Talisman Scripture" didn't mean that cultivating it was useless. Earth Uncle had received the fundamental method of proving the way created by the Heavenly Monarch, even if partially, and it had benefited him immensely.
After all, both originated from the same source.
Far away, Jiang Li watched and made his judgment, slightly squinting his eyes, his thoughts unknowable.
He had deliberately not concealed his words, wanting Earth Uncle to hear them in order to gauge how deeply Earth Uncle was affected and how much his strength had changed.
From the looks of it, both changes seemed significant.
The change in disposition made Earth Uncle more aggressive than before, and the increase in strength gave him confidence, influencing his style of action to be more assertive. Combining the two, Jiang Li could guess Earth Uncle's next moves.
Fortunately, this change in Earth Uncle's disposition was not due to being controlled by the Heavenly Monarch. His current state would likely impact his relationship with the Heavenly Monarch.
As Earth Uncle already broke through the numerous obstacles ahead, his dominant Yin energy carved a path, his colossal body transformed back to normal size, speeding forward several miles before landing.
The reason for his decisive action, apart from arising from annoyance, was also due to Earth Uncle's intention to quickly find the location of the Heavenly Monarch and the Heavenly Incarnation.
Now that he had shown his strength, it had cleared the obstructions in one go. With no more Handprints, Earth Uncle could freely release his Divine Thought to find his target.
