Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 519
Chapter 517 Only This Life
“Does this thing have a backup?” Jiang Li stroked the Six Paths of Reincarnation Stele. The surface was rough, and he could sense the strong aura of the cycle of life and death.
He tried to comprehend it, but to no avail.
Only the dead could comprehend the cycle of life and death, and Jiang Li, in his suspended state, couldn’t do so.
The female ghost officer warned, “Don’t mess around. This thing is extremely difficult to refine. Hou Tu Huang spent a long time refining a single piece. The entire samsara zone was shut down, the Wheel King and the Equal King were resting, and only Hou Tu Huang was working overtime. It was incredibly difficult.”
“I didn’t mean to try it. I’m not that kind of person,” Jiang Li explained earnestly, but the female ghost officer wasn’t convinced.
“Jiang Ren Huang.” Two Yamas appeared behind Jiang Li, clasping their fists.
Jiang Li knew without a second thought that they were the Wheel King and the Equal King.
He asked with a half-smile, “Why, you two want to test my skills too?”
“Not just the two of us, all ten of us.”
King Pingdeng spread his arms, and behind him appeared eight towering figures shrouded in deathly auras.
All ten Yama Kings had arrived!
“Emperor Jiang, your knockout punch just now was just an accident. This time, I’m fully prepared. Let’s fight again!”
King Chujiang revealed his Qilin form, exuding the majesty of the first Qilin to emerge from the universe.
“It was the same with the four of us. You were just too fast, caught us off guard, and landed a punch on each of us. We felt comfortable lying on the ground for a while, but this time, we won’t let you go!”
The four Yama Kings ruling the four hells declared in unison, their fighting spirit high, and they began to gather their powerful magical powers.
King Yama wondered if he had come too hastily. He should have inquired about the matter before coming. Five of his colleagues had been struck five times by Emperor Jiang. This didn’t seem right.
He had come too hastily.
King Pingdeng’s face twitched. He’d been beaten, yet he spoke so confidently. Could he have any shame?
“You all came here, are you done with your work?” Jiang Li scratched his ear.
The Ten Yama Kings froze, the lingering deathly aura threatening to dissipate.
“This man’s fighting ability is unclear. Everyone, attack together and test his strength!” At this point, a fight was necessary. King Pingdeng waved his hand, commanding the nine Yama Kings.
King Chujiang took the lead, emitting the Nanming Lihuo, the fire of the innate Bagua. A river of weak waters erupted beneath his feet, its flames surging, yet the weak waters remained unmoved!
Emperor Song blew out an ancient black snow, accompanied by a howling gale. The raging wind and snow were powerful enough to freeze a soul, plunging it into an abyss of eternal damnation!
King Yama drew out the Book of Life and Death, aiming it at Jiang Li, a brilliant light shone. He held the Judge’s Pen, intending to shorten Jiang Li’s lifespan! King
Biancheng, the Metropolitan King, the Wheel King, and the others also attacked Jiang Li with all their might.
The Ten Yama Kings were all Golden Immortals. Their combined might was unimaginable!
“From this perspective, Golden Immortals are still somewhat stronger than Celestial Immortals.” Jiang Li smiled, recognizing the power inherent in these moves. He leisurely commented that any one of the Ten Yama Kings was capable of crushing the envoys of Honghu Lake.
“Then I’ll play with you.” Jiang Li took a step, moving a thousand meters, and arrived before King Chujiang.
King Chujiang was horrified and caused the Weak Water beneath his feet to engulf Jiang Li.
The Weak Water was so dense that even a feather couldn’t float, and Jiang Li sank to the bottom.
Jiang Li whispered, “Follow the laws of heaven and earth.”
A massive figure rose from the Weak Water River. The best way to avoid drowning is to rise above the water level.
The massive Jiang Li struck King Chujiang with a single punch, burying him in the earth.
“Although I don’t know how to refine elixirs, I do know a little about controlling fire.” A ball of flame appeared in Jiang Li’s hand—the very Nanming Lihuo that King Chujiang was preparing to attack.
King Chujiang was horrified to discover his connection to the Nanming Lihuo had been severed. Jiang Li had actually refined his Nanming Lihuo without him even realizing it!
“The legendary immortal fire has a reasonable temperature, but it seems to be encased in another flame.”
Jiang Li pulled, drawing the flame hidden within the Nanming Lihuo. The
soul-destroying fire, the Netherworld Ghost Fire.
King Chujiang had hoped the Nanming Lihuo would explode, allowing the Netherworld Fire to consume Jiang Li’s soul like a maggot, but he never imagined Jiang Li would rip it out.
The Nanming Lihuo in Jiang Li’s hand blazed fiercely, its flames soaring into the sky.
The Yamas were in disbelief. This was several, even dozens of times more powerful than the Nanming Lihuo King had wielded!
He had only just obtained the Nanming Lihuo!
Jiang Li’s hands were coated in the Nanming Lihuo and the Netherworld Ghost Fire, resembling two red and black gloves.
Jiang Li delivered a light punch, sending countless sparks flying, igniting the black snow blown by Emperor Song.
The blow was accompanied by a gust of wind, and black snow, ignited by ghostly fire, clung to Emperor Song, causing him to cry out in pain.
King Yama moved his pen to alter Jiang Li’s lifespan, but just as he was about to write, the pen stiffened, trembled slightly, and then broke in half.
As if this single stroke would involve a causal connection, he refused to begin even if the pen itself threatened to break.
“No matter how powerful you are in this life, it’s only this life. You can’t be as powerful in the next!”
Behind the Wheel King, countless tightly meshing gears rose. Pointing at Jiang Li, they began to spin rapidly, transforming him into the form of his next life.
This was the Wheel King’s ultimate magical power, “Crossing the Next Life,” transforming an enemy into the form of their next life. It was impossible for a being to be equally powerful in their past, present, and future lives.
Even the mighty Dao Ancestor couldn’t pull it off!
“No, this is impossible!” the Wheel King cried out in horror, retreating rapidly.
“How could someone be immortal without an afterlife? Why can’t I allow you to temporarily transform into your next life?”
The Wheel King discovered that Jiang Li had shown no signs of reincarnation, let alone making him as steadfast as a rock. He discovered that Jiang Li’s lifespan was even longer than what was written in the Book of Life and Death, with no end in sight.
Or could this person’s lifespan truly have an end?
Even the supposedly infinite Hunyuan Wuliangxian had a limited lifespan.
“What’s that? He only has past and present lives, no afterlife?” The Wheel King shuddered, unable to comprehend. Could anyone truly be this powerful?
The Wheel King had met Daozu, Hou Tuhuangzhi, and the Immortal Emperor, and nothing like this had ever happened to him.
Jiang Li couldn’t understand it either, but that didn’t stop him from striking.
Jiang Li punched the Wheel King in the stomach, sending him spinning backwards. The gears behind him collapsed and scattering to the ground.
The Wheel King was a female ghost, so Jiang Li gave her some face and refrained from striking.
The Wheel King flew back in dismay, livid and furious.
“Even if you don’t have this life, you should have had a past life. I refuse to believe this is your first!”
“Reverse past life!” the Wheel King roared, and the fallen gears reappeared behind him, forming a completely different shape.
Jiang Li took the blow calmly, and nothing happened.
The Wheel King was also unable to transform Jiang Li back to his past life.
“You have no past life, no afterlife, only this life!” The Wheel King stumbled back. These two moves had exhausted all her strength.
Jiang Li raised an eyebrow.
