Taiyi Dao Fruit

At least for now, the issue Ji Xuantong must face is not who the Primordial Lord Rain Master truly is, nor why their Dao Fruit doesn't belong to the category of Divine Attributes, but rather, that they are too powerful.

Even if not as powerful as Jiang Li, who now stands as a fourth-rank supreme, they can completely halt Ji Xuantong's progress. In fact, if it weren't for protecting the Jade Tower, Ji Xuantong would have worried about their own safety.

With this thought in mind, five vortices spun behind Ji Xuantong, seemingly trying to discern the category of the opponent's Dao Fruit, while the Yin energy once again spread, attempting to infiltrate the Jade Tower from another direction.

However, before the Yin energy could take effect, three divine silhouettes rose around the Jade Tower. The qi mechanisms of wind, thunder, and lightning connected with the qi of the Primordial Lord Rain Master, forming a perfect whole. Vast white mist began to form out of thin air, gradually enveloping the Jade Tower.

Jiuli Vast Sky Realm Law!

Inside the Jade Tower, Gongsun Qingyue held the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, and with the guidance of the scripture, the three Dao Fruits of Marquis of Wind, Duke of Thunder, and Mother of Lightning circled around her, connecting with the Primordial Lord Rain Master to form a forbidden technique.

Behind her, Tianxuan and Jiang Li sat cross-legged, their eyes slightly closed, as if in a light slumber. Notably, Jiang Li had electric arcs flashing across their body, and their face appeared pale, indicating that the remnants left by Zhang Zhixuan were still entangling them, yet to be refined.

Emergence of the Primordial Spirit is considered one of the weakest states for a cultivator, let alone when Jiang Li also bears injuries. In such a state, even if there remains Divine Thought within the body, it cannot exert much power.

Fortunately, Gongsun Qingyue and the Primordial Lord Rain Master have joined forces to establish the Jiuli Vast Sky Realm Law.

As the white mist gradually encircled the Jade Tower, Ji Xuantong lost the opportunity to enter the Jade Tower unless they could defeat the Rain Master or break the Jiuli Vast Sky Realm Law.

Yet, Ji Xuantong didn't seem in a hurry.

In fact, there was even a sense of delight.

The Primordial Lord Rain Master sensed a scheming mind and found that the opponent didn't seem as frustrated as expected, which immediately raised doubts in their mind. However, at this point, suspicion felt somewhat belated.

A Divine Thought had already appeared in the Jade Tower first. As Gongsun Qingyue suddenly turned around, she discovered a figure appearing behind her.

The King You, who should have been recuperating in the Yin Law Department, unexpectedly appeared here, and there was no sign of weakness, as if he had never been injured.

Dao Fruit Divine Power·Dream Dragon Slaying.

The King You's fifth-grade Dao Fruit was precisely Judge Wei Zheng.

While alive, Wei Zheng served as an Underworld Judge, and one of his famous deeds was splitting his avatar to slay the Jing River Dragon King in a dream. The [Dream Dragon Slaying] is the divine skill of Wei Zheng's dream avatar.

This divine skill allows the splitting of an external avatar through the slumber of the main body. Although there is a time limit, its power is similar to the main body, unlike typical avatar divine skills where the avatar and the main body have a significant disparity.

In some sense, this is the ghost cultivator's version of the Primordial Spirit's emergence. The essence of ghost cultivation is a soul body, incapable of the emergence of the Primordial Spirit, but [Dream Dragon Slaying] makes this possible.

By employing this Dao Fruit divine power, the King You, like Jiang Li's Primordial Spirit emergence, utilizes another body to avoid being hampered by injuries. The crucial point is to catch others off guard.

Appearing as a surprise, the King You didn't wait for his form to fully solidify before making a decisive attack, forming a seal with one hand, channeling Nine Netherworlds Dark Energy, striking toward Jiang Li's chest, and pressing down directly on the Heavenly Spirit.

In choosing the softest target, Jiang Li, without the third-grade Dao Fruit and already severely injured, was undoubtedly the best target to attack.

While theoretically, a fourth-grade expert only has one weak point, which is the Sea of Consciousness, the heart remains an extremely crucial part. Destroying it will not result in death.

The King You's seal struck Jiang Li's chest, Nine Nether Energy roared with power, one hand gripped and pressed down on the Heavenly Spirit, a thousand souls roared, charging straight into the Sea of Consciousness.

One atop the other, it broke the heart's central hub, cut off the qi, and the thousand souls entered the Sea of Consciousness, occupying it.

When the Nine Nether Energy and the thousand souls entered the body simultaneously, the King You felt certain, "Succeeded."

At the same time, Earth Uncle in the Yin World also sensed the situation through King You's main body and was overjoyed, "Succeeded."

Although the victory was not yet determined, it seems that Jiang Li, the naturally evil little ghost from the Jiang family, had fallen. With his physical body in hand, even in the worst-case scenario, Jiang Li's physical body could be destroyed, ruining his cultivation.

On the other side, Jiang Li's expression changed, and the True Sun Fire's momentum also came to a halt, indicating they had sensed trouble with their physical body.

"You little brat, prepare to die!"

Earth Uncle laughed heartily, sweeping over the injured area, the Yin Qi spread, immediately filling the lost flesh and blood. He twisted the river, Yellow River water spanning the sky, further drawing Yin energy, like a furious dragon engulfing the heavens and earth, devouring Jiang Li whose qi mechanism had changed.

However——

Jiang Li's expression was not of urgency but revealed a smile.

"The plan is complete."

······

······

With the word "plan complete," King You was the first to notice the anomaly.

He felt his hand touching something furry. The physical body of Jiang Li, who had been sitting cross-legged, had turned into a large dog sitting and squatting.

At this moment, it was grinning, showing an extremely smug smile.

The Nine Nether Energy infused into the large dog was like a clay ox entering the sea, swallowed by an invisible void, and although a thousand souls had been sent into the Sea of Consciousness, they had no effect whatsoever.

Xiao Tian possessed the Heavenly Dog Bloodline, with its own space within its body.

Being also a dog-shaped magic treasure, its divine soul had long been refined into its body, leaving the Sea of Consciousness empty.

The King You's two harsh moves had no effect, instead, he had delivered his arm to Xiao Tian's mouth. The large dog lowered its head for a bite, clamping down on the King You's arm, fiercely injecting the qi of the three disasters of wind, fire, and soldiers through its teeth.
