Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 164

Chapter 164: Chatting with an Old Friend

foursome’s battle gradually began to show signs of victory or defeat.

Bai Hongtu’s swordsmanship rivaled that of the Sword Lord, and he was also proficient in runes and formations. The Sword Lord, relying solely on his sword, was unable to match him and fell into a disadvantage.

Yu Yin, after all, had just broken through to the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and her foundation was not deep enough. Even with the blessing of national destiny, she could not match Li Er, a veteran Tribulation Crossing Stage who had already survived the Immortal

Tribulation. In fact, as an immortal artifact, the Ruyi Gourd naturally possessed combat power exceeding that of the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Otherwise, when the Yin-Yang Heavenly Seal was invigorating spiritual treasures, the Tribulation Crossing Stage warriors present would have stepped in to suppress them.

However, Yu Yin did not intend to use the Ruyi Gourd’s full power. Even if she defeated Li Er, she did not feel that she had truly defeated him.

She would rather not have such a victory.

The Sword Lord and Yu Yin were both at a disadvantage, but the true winner could not be determined for a while, as battles in the Tribulation Crossing Stage were often protracted.

Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin exchanged a glance, made a decision, and withdrew from the battle to reunite.

Eight small flags flew out of Bai Hongtu’s storage ring, forming an ancient formation above Li Er and Jian Jun.

Yu Yin stepped forward, placing the National Destiny chessboard beneath them.

The formation and the chessboard merged into one, isolating a space. Countless runes appeared, their purpose unknown.

Li Er and Jian Jun noticed that the flow of spiritual energy within their bodies was gradually slowing. Even releasing their sword intent and Dharma body was much more difficult than before, like a mortal moving through water, encountering resistance at every turn.

“What is this?” Li Er had never seen a move combining National Destiny and the formation.

“It was originally intended to be used against Jiang Li, to see if I could win once in a hundred battles. Who knew I’d use it on you first?” Bai Hongtu said.

Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin were both the strongest contenders for the title of Human Emperor, but Jiang Li’s unpredictable nature meant they had no hope of becoming Human Emperor.

However, they wanted to defeat Jiang Li once more, so they devised a method to combine National Destiny and the formation.

Plans can’t keep up with change. The two men, after decades of deliberation, finally finalized their plan. However, Jiang Li’s rapid growth left him beating the Outer Realm Demon like a grandson. Using this method proved impossible, so they shelved it and didn’t use it.

This was the first time the two men publicly employed this method.

The formation and the chessboard of national destiny activated. Fu Wenhua took on the forms of Li Er and the Sword Lord, each employing similar methods. Li Er used his Dharmakaya, and so did Fu Wenhua Li Er. The Sword Lord used his sword intent, and so did Fu Wenhua Sword Lord.

Furthermore, Fu Wenhua’s Li Er and Sword Lord’s movements were fluid, unrestrained and unimpeded!

Li Er saw Fu Wenhua mimicking him, repeating his actions, which was incredibly annoying.

Li Er shattered the galaxy, and so did Fu Wenhua Li Er.

Li Er’s roar shook the universe, and so did Fu Wenhua Li Er’s roar.

Li Er slapped himself hard, but Fu Wenhua Li Er remained motionless.

“…”

Li Er boldly declared that such a wicked Fu Wenhua must have been Bai Hongtu’s design!

Sword Lord and Li Er clashed with Fu Wen’s avatar, whose imitations were unstoppable, forcing them into a bitter struggle.

They punched Fu Wen, and Fu Wen responded with a punch; they struck him with a sword, and Fu Wen responded with a sword.

Li Er roared with an aura so vast and ancient that his clothes, unable to withstand it, shattered into shreds. His

towering Dharma body shattered the formation and the chessboard of national destiny, its power so terrifying that the stars were like grains of sand to his Dharma body.

That night, Li Er wasn’t bragging!

Bai Hongtu and Sword Lord were both embarrassed. Everyone else was bragging, so why were you the only one telling the truth?

Li Er grinned, his mighty hand covering the sky. Even the Kyushu Continent was nothing but a pebble in his eyes.

“Oh, big but slow, nothing to show for it.” Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin didn’t see this as a threat. How could the rule that the larger the size, the higher the combat power? If that were the case, Buddhism wouldn’t be pursuing such a thing as a six-foot-tall golden body.

The four engaged in a chaotic battle, their destructive power threatening to shatter the galaxy. Li Er, in particular, possessed immense destructive power. With a single turn, countless stars were annihilated.

“Alas, I’ll have to put an end to this,” Jiang Li sighed. If this continued, it would, among other things, scar the cultivators of Jiuzhou.

Ji Zhi, still taking heart pills, continued to take his medication. He squinted at Jiang Li, wondering if it weren’t for you, how could such a fight have unfolded?

Jiang Li rose and flew towards the battlefield.

The four were clearly in high spirits, and even upon seeing Jiang Li, they didn’t stop.

Jiang Li pierced through the Dharmakaya’s defenses, grabbed Li Er’s ankle, and threw him down.

The Dharmakaya’s defenses were impenetrable, and even Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin couldn’t crack them, yet Jiang Li easily penetrated them.

The Sword Lord’s sword energy ripped through the river, shaking the galaxy. Jiang Li’s fist cut through the sword’s power, stamped on the Sword Lord, and flung him onto Li Er.

“Wait, I’m done,” Bai Hongtu cried out, realizing what was happening.

“Too late,” Jiang Li said mercilessly.

Tens of thousands of runes blocked Bai Hongtu’s path, a barrier that would take even an immortal a moment to break. However, Jiang Li had no intention of forcing his way through. He entered a state of ethereal form, invisible and shadowless, passing through the runes and grabbing Bai Hongtu’s neck.

Surprised, Bai Hongtu recognized Jiang Li’s method. One of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Powers was the “Standing Shadowless” technique. Once mastered, one could neither be here nor there, visible nor untouchable.

“When did you master this?!”

Jiang Li didn’t answer, but threw him onto the Sword Lord.

“I’ll get down by myself.” Yu Yin jumped onto Bai Hongtu.

Jiang Li hadn’t intended to let Yu Yin go, but Yu Yin reacted faster and found her own position.

Jiang Li couldn’t just pick her up and throw her again.

“I’ve told you a long time ago that you should pay attention to the influence, pay attention to the influence, and maintain the Nascent Soul stage. Look at you, are you in the Nascent Soul stage?”

“Did I choose you to participate in the conference so that you can make trouble? I asked you to give face to Ji Zhi and support the activities of the Great Zhou.”

“Look at you, what have you become? Do you have the demeanor of the Tribulation Crossing stage?”

The four people thought to themselves, when did you say that, but seeing Ji Zhi’s expressionless face on the side, they decided not to refute Jiang Li and awarded the medals honestly.

Ji Zhi sneered. “I didn’t let them come to make trouble, but I believed your lies. “

Ji Zhi made up his mind to concentrate on practicing, and strive to go back five hundred years ago to beat up the shameless Jiang Li.

“And there are still stars in the sky. Look, how many are left now?” Jiang Li was distressed.

“Three hundred and sixty-three.” Li Er answered honestly.

“From today on, you will change the stars back to their original state. If you can’t change them back, you are not allowed to return to Jiuzhou.”

Jiang Li had also been in the Tribulation Period and knew the methods of the Tribulation Period. The shattered stars could be put back together. This was not difficult for them, but it was time-consuming.

“Oh.” The four agreed honestly.

“But before going to the universe, I want to find an old friend to chat with.” Bai Hongtu said.

“I’d like to catch up with an old friend, too.”

“Me too.”

“Same here.

” “Go quickly and come back soon.”

The four men, eager to fight, approached the Taoist priest, sneering…

“Don’t come over here!”

“You’re frivolous, aren’t you?   ” “You’re unscrupulous ,

aren’t you?” “You’re old-fashioned   , aren’t you?” “You’re honest and foolish, aren’t you?”   After a while, the four men, refreshed, flew off into the universe to clean up the mess.   ”Taoist priest, are you selling this corpse? We, the Corpse Driving Sect   , are buying it at a high price.” “From now on, the price you pay for information from the Corpse Driving Sect will be increased by 50%.”   The Taoist priest swallowed the Great Rejuvenation Pill he had prepared long ago, and became full of energy.   (End of this chapter)
