Chapter 564: Fusheng Leitianzun, Invincible! (Finale) (Part 1)
Chapter 564: Fusheng Leitianzun, Invincible! (Finale) (Part 1)
The tall man scanned his surroundings, his gaze sweeping across the area.
Wherever his eyes fell, whether it was Yan Aoyun, who had already opened the Dao Gate, the Gu Shen, or the exceptionally talented Xu Yuanzhen, Tang Xiaotang, and Zhao Chanyang, his gaze remained calm and unperturbed.
Whether he had interacted with them before or not, it seemed to make no difference to the owner of those eyes.
However, in that instant, those who had previously come into contact with him suddenly felt an overwhelming fist intent forming on its own, as if it were about to strike them again, making it seem impossible to escape the unpredictable heavenly might no matter where they fled.
But as various mysterious energy streams within the grand formation converged and enveloped them, the others no longer felt the suffocating threat.
The tall man's eyes only showed a slight change from their previous state when they landed on Lei Jun, who was of similar stature.
They became even more domineering and oppressive.
"Wuji," he nodded, his expression unchanged. "It's you."
Lei Jun's gaze remained as calm as still water.
Strictly speaking, this wasn't their first encounter.
They had clashed numerous times before through the Imperial Furnace and the sealing formation, and before Lei Jun achieved the Daoist Profound Truth Realm, he had even directly touched the Imperial Furnace, reaching the sealed Diyuan Great Thousand World.
It was there that Diyuan noticed Lei Jun, who had already attained the Wuji Stance.
And now, they were finally facing each other.
This time, the man who seemed to embody heavenly might broke his usual pattern and didn't immediately launch an attack. Instead, he stared at Lei Jun for a moment before slowly speaking, "Not just the Wuji Stance..."
He had sensed it too... Lei Jun wasn't surprised.
The other party was a Huangtian Form, a Saintly Emperor.
Sixty years ago, Seek Good and Avoid Evil had predicted the other party's actions once, and as a result, Lei Jun had sent the Taiyi Shaman Sovereign to Gao Fengliangjie.
Gu Shen and Zu Tao Tie, who were still present, hadn't noticed it, but the other party involved, Diyuan, had sensed the clues.
As a Martial Saintly Emperor, he was particularly sensitive to anything that touched upon him, as if he had foreknowledge.
Although he had caused the Taiyi Shaman Sovereign to suffer a great loss, similar incidents still made Diyuan cautious.
With this heightened awareness, Seek Good and Avoid Evil could no longer predict the actions of this top Martial Saintly Emperor of the age.
And now, facing each other, Diyuan directly confirmed that the source of his earlier actions being anticipated by others lay with the tall, young Daoist before him.
Lei Jun didn't mind this either.
With their current cultivation and realm, it was time to focus on themselves.
Diyuan looked at Lei Jun without waiting for a response.
After confirming his suspicions, he raised his hand.
The fist that had once appeared before the Taiyi Shaman Sovereign, Yan Aoyun, and Gao Tiansui, as if holding the entire universe in its grasp, clenched once more.
And what appeared before the fist was a door.
It was an illusory, ethereal, formless, and transparent door, yet it was unmistakably a door.
The fist covered the void, and even within the vast Daoist formation, it seemed omnipresent, capable of reaching every corner of every Great Thousand World.
However, the existence of the "door" caused the fist's final strike to land in one place, and it continuously missed its target.
Diyuan's gaze remained calm as he looked at Lei Jun, who was with the "door": "It's meaningless."
Lei Jun: "Although your fist power doesn't diminish when attacking multiple targets, your actions are even more baffling."
Diyuan: "They can't help you; they exist in a different world from you."
Lei Jun: "I have no interest in the life and death of every individual, but when I encounter someone like you who engages in genocidal slaughter, it makes me seem merciful in comparison."
Diyuan didn't speak again.
Could he understand how Lei Jun and the others viewed his slaughter of countless cultivators?
In fact, he could.
He wasn't born as the Heavenly Emperor.
He had experienced, witnessed, understood, and empathized with the various aspects of the mortal world.
But now, it was all like passing clouds.
Because their levels of life were completely different, there was no need for people to pause over the joys and sorrows, births and deaths of mere insects.
The world didn't need cultivators who looked up to the heavens.
All living beings needed to bow their heads and crawl.
He didn't actively attack ordinary people, but if he did, he didn't care.
It was like not paying attention to whether his footsteps had crushed any blades of grass.
If anything, he didn't understand Lei Jun.
This was the existence that seemed closest to him, yet he thought like an ant.
Did this Daoist believe that he shared the same life as other cultivators? Just breathing could decide the lives and deaths of countless ants.
Would his fist power be dispersed because of this? Of course not, as they weren't the targets.
It was just that when he attacked Lei Jun, it was like pouring a bucket of boiling water, splashing onto the surrounding ants.
But their lives were too fragile, and a single drop of water could destroy them.
It seemed that this Daoist had only caught up externally, while internally, he was still clumsy.
He had wasted the Wuji Stance and the Daoist Profound Truth Realm.
Being the closest to him was, in the end, only in appearance.
However, it didn't matter.
He didn't care anyway.
As for the "door" that seemed omnipresent...
Diyuan struck out indifferently.
It seemed like an ordinary punch, but it appeared to directly penetrate the illusory "door."
It directly hit Lei Jun.
But at that moment, Lei Jun also seemed to transform into the illusory "door."
Countless mysteries manifested within, endlessly changing, as if encompassing all the secrets of the world, allowing him to freely construct everything he thought, imagined, and contemplated.
The cultivators who hadn't yet opened the Dao Gate witnessed this "door," and it was as if they directly understood the mysteries beyond.
This was Lei Jun's summary of his previous cultivation experiences and his continuous exploration and deduction of the unknown.
This was his Daoist mantra after achieving the Daoist Profound Truth Realm:
The Gate of All Wonders!
With endless variations, even a Martial Saintly Emperor like Diyuan, who could almost foresee his opponents' moves, couldn't fully grasp the changes of Lei Jun's Gate of All Wonders at this moment.
He also sensed the mysteries behind his earlier calculations.
But his mind remained undisturbed, and as he punched, he shattered all the mysteries.
Numerous wondrous truths and principles crumbled under his fist, most not lasting more than two punches, and many not even withstanding a single punch.
Amidst the myriad changes, the essence remained the same.
I am the essence.
The Dao Gate had long since been surpassed.
Both sides exchanged blows at lightning speed, clashing countless times in an instant.
In the latter part of ancient times, the current Taoist Wuji Tianzun fought the Martial Saint Huangtian Shenghuang once again!
Within the array, the Gu shen, Zu Tao Tie, and Da mie pu sa, the three of them, had indeed felt something amiss earlier.
An opponent like Diyuan was not to be taken lightly.
Lei Jun was indeed not in the mood to deal with the Gu shen and the others, but he also had no intention of letting them off.
The initial exchange of blows was not meant to be a minor punishment.
Instead, it was to weaken their strength, making it easier for Lei Jun to engage Diyuan, while others could assist from the sidelines, coordinating with the timing.
Wang Guiyuan rarely took the initiative to request to join the battle.
Especially against an opponent whose cultivation realm was genuinely higher than his.
Da mie pu sa.
Even though the opponent had initially attained the body of a Bodhisattva through clever means, their cultivation was not complete.
Even though the opponent had already been injured by Lei Jun.
But this was, after all, an opponent who had already opened the Daoist door, the former ruler of the Jingtu World, one of the three great demons, and the first master of the Demon Buddha lineage after Da mie Rulai.
According to Wang Guiyuan's past habits, if given a choice, he would definitely not provoke the opponent on his own initiative.
But some things are exceptions.
When he faced the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree, his cultivation realm was still insufficient, but now, with the appearance of Da mie pu sa, he decided to participate.
"My Buddha is merciful."
As Wang Guiyuan, in the form of the Golden Body of Fa Qing Da Zun, pronounced the Buddha's name, a Buddha land unfolded within the Daoist array, with both sides not interfering with each other, as if they were in two different yet overlapping worlds.
In the Buddha land, six Earth Store Bodhisattva's dharma bodies appeared, holding wish-fulfilling jewels or vajra staffs, guiding the six paths of reincarnation.
The pure Buddha light shone everywhere, and Da mie pu sa, without a head, immediately turned around, as if staring at Wang Guiyuan, even though it had no eyes.
Then, the pitch-black dharma body, which had been sitting in the lotus position, suddenly stood up, and in one step, it stepped onto the Buddha land.
Wherever its footsteps fell, nothing unusual happened, but the precious light suddenly dimmed, and the Buddha land cracked extensively.
Even the six paths of reincarnation seemed as if they would be crushed by Da mie pu sa's footstep.
But after stepping onto the Buddha land, it suddenly stopped.
"Da mie Rulai destroys all things, unafraid of fighting Diyuan, and eventually returned with Earth Store Bodhisattva. You, together with Taiyi Shaman Sovereign, severed the fate of the Buddhist door in that Grand World. Now, fighting Diyuan again, the cause and effect will come to an end today," Wang Guiyuan's voice echoed.
Along with him, countless boundless Buddha lands appeared.
The Buddha light shone everywhere, covering all directions, though not as extensive as Lei Jun's array that enveloped the entire universe.
Countless layers of Buddha lands emerged, and numerous Buddhist treasures appeared, falling into the hands of one Buddhist dharma body after another.
Even with Da mie pu sa's ability, as it shattered one Buddha land, more Buddha lands appeared, as if they could never be completely destroyed.
This was indeed beyond Da mie pu sa's expectations, but it did not affect its determination to take another step and continue advancing in Wang Guiyuan's Buddha land.
It shattered one, then moved on to the next, continuously destroying them.
The headless pitch-black body now had its palms joined together in front of its chest.
As it destroyed layer upon layer of Buddha lands, at the broken neck where its headless body had been severed, black air currents swirled, and there were signs of its head being reassembled.
By continuously destroying the righteous Buddha lands, it was in harmony with its cultivated dharma door.
If there were truly countless Buddha lands for it to continue destroying, not only could it repair its current injuries, but it might also be possible for it to complete its cultivation and become a new Da mie Rulai.
But in the next moment...
"Bang!"
The black air that had just shown signs of reassembling into a head was immediately smashed again.
Da mie pu sa stopped once more.
The black air it had reassembled was naturally not as sturdy as its original head.
Although Lei Jun had smashed its head with a palm strike, the unique characteristic of its Demon Buddha lineage's integrated offense and defense ensured that even a temporarily reassembled head made of black air was not something that just anyone could touch.
As a result, not only was it smashed, but the opponent remained unscathed.
It was clearly a Buddhist dharma wheel with a dark surface, devoid of Buddha light, and appeared distinct from ordinary Buddhist dharma wheels.
In the air beside it, there were a second, third, and fourth dark dharma wheels, and more dharma wheels were condensing and manifesting.
The source of these dharma wheels was the countless Buddha lands that had been shattered by Da mie pu sa.
Severely injured by Lei Jun, Da mie pu sa's strength had greatly diminished, and its perception, which was not its strong suit, became even slower.
Eager to repair its dharma body, it suddenly realized that the shattered Buddha lands had not completely turned to dust and ashes.
More refined and numerous, countless fragments of Buddha lands gathered to form one dark dharma wheel after another.
Da mie pu sa was not unfamiliar with the Buddhist principles revealed in the dharma wheels.
They originated from the dharma lineage of Earth Store Bodhisattva.
There were a total of ten dharma wheels.
Countless Buddha lands, Earth Store Bodhisattva's Ten Wheels.
With the ten wheels, it was as if Earth Store Bodhisattva had reappeared in the world.
Countless precious treasures, along with the shattered dharma wheels, ultimately created a miracle.
If it were any other time, Da mie pu sa would have tried to persist, as Wang Guiyuan's dharma door required immense consumption and could not last long.
But now, already severely injured, it could not hold on, and in an instant, it was pressed down by Earth Store Bodhisattva's palm, and its headless dharma body began to shatter and disintegrate on a larger scale.
Xu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiaotang joined the fight later, coordinating with Wang Guiyuan's progress.
More importantly, the three of them worked together with Lei Jun's rhythm.
Within the array that covered the universe, the mysterious energy flowed, forming three large voids, which were supposed to be the weak points of the array.
However, at the moment, Lei Jun was engaged in a fierce battle with Diyuan, and due to the existence of Zhongmei Zhi men, he could not pay attention to these three locations.
The Gu shen, Da mie pu sa, and Zu Tao Tie were each trapped in these voids, and because they had all been severely injured by Lei Jun earlier, even though the array had weak points, they were unable to break free at this time.
On the contrary, Xu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiaotang could wait for the right opportunity and had the leeway to choose the most suitable time to strike again.
Xu Yuanzhen's Xiantian Xingqi, Tai Xu Kong Jing, and Three Heavens Immortal Realm were all deployed, and the severely injured Gu shen could not do anything to her.
However, on the other hand, even with such severe injuries, the Gu shen remained mysterious and unpredictable, elusive and difficult to harm for most people in the world.
Xu Yuanzhen's Dragon-Tiger Strike had once hit the Gu shen's body directly.
It seemed as though the headless man in white was pierced through, but in reality, he suffered no real harm.
Through the torn clothing, his body appeared flesh and blood, but the gaping wound did not bleed. Instead, countless tiny translucent flesh buds were visible, like numerous spiritual worms wriggling, or streams of shamanic aura flowing and swirling.
In the blink of an eye, the shamanic aura converged, and the wound instantly healed, leaving the skin smooth and flawless, like perfect human flesh.
Except for the severed neck wound that refused to heal, all other injuries the Gu Shen suffered disappeared in an instant.
If it weren't for still being within Lei Jun's Daoist array, who knows how many Gu Shen clones would have scattered and escaped in the shadows.
However, despite Xu Yuanzhen's consecutive strikes failing to achieve true success, her face showed no sign of defeat. Instead, looking at the Gu Shen's eyes, she seemed somewhat intrigued.
It wasn't until Wang Guiyuan gathered the Earthly Storehouse Ten Wheels that Xu Yuanzhen truly made her move.
At that moment, as she struck, Xu Yuanzhen's steps towards the Gu Shen slowed slightly.
She did not use her own immortal technique, "Traveling through the Heavens with Qi."
Instead, she quickly approached the man in white.
Because, at that moment, his speed was slower than hers.
Xu Yuanzhen had indeed slowed down, but the Gu Shen was even less agile.
Not only was it unable to teleport or escape, but all its divine abilities, techniques, and immortal techniques had suddenly become useless.
In the surrounding expanse, it was as if an invisible cage had formed, and aside from Lei Jun's Daoist array still operating, all mystical techniques were rendered ineffective.
Even Xu Yuanzhen herself was not exempt from this.
At this moment, she couldn't even unfold her own Daojing Xuan Yuan.
But under the effect of the mystical techniques, a profound and serene void enveloped them, dimming the surroundings and causing colors to fade. Light and heat dissipated into the distance, making it difficult to gather.
Within this range, whether it was the spiritual energy of heaven and earth or the evil aura of demons, it was difficult to manifest various divine abilities. Before they could take shape, they scattered.
All of this was due to a single immortal technique that Xu Yuanzhen had used earlier.
One technique gives birth, and ten thousand techniques vanish.
This was Xu Yuanzhen's sixth innate immortal technique, created after comprehending the Three Purities Returning to Truth:
Tai Shang Miefa.
In the darkness, all techniques ceased to exist.
As a shamanic spirit, the Gu Shen, in its perfect state, would not be restricted by Xu Yuanzhen's current realm.
But under the burden of new and old injuries, it couldn't fully utilize its abilities.
In an instant, the Gu Shen realized that the current situation was exceptionally dangerous for it.
Under Tai Shang Miefa, all other techniques ceased to exist, and those within its range could only rely on their cultivation and physical strength, especially their mastery over their mortal bodies.
... If your opponent is a martial arts expert, you would never use this technique.
The Gu Shen was helpless.
Gu techniques were the way of shamanic spirits, focusing on soul cultivation.
At the same level, the Gu Shen did not excel in physical strength, but at its current realm and power, it was difficult to find any weaknesses.
However, in its current heavily injured state, without its various transformation skills, if it were to engage in close combat, it would be almost helpless!
As the Gu Shen's thoughts reached this point, Xu Yuanzhen, holding the Liheng Halberd, had already approached.
The only good news for it was that among the top experts of the Celestial Master Manor, Xu Yuanzhen was not known for her physical strength.
In close combat, she relied more on her precise judgment and control.
In this situation, the Gu Shen could still attempt to fight back, which was better than facing a brute force opponent.
But when Xu Yuanzhen raised the Liheng Halberd and slashed down, it was as if she had split open the chaos, an extremely fierce and powerful move rarely seen in ancient and modern times, a formidable martial art of the Daoist school.
Xu Yuanzhen, along with Lei Jun, Tang Xiaotang, and others, had discussed and contemplated, creating her fifth innate immortal technique:
Hundun Ji.
Although it only had one burst of power, its might was extremely strong.
The headless man in white was split in half by the strike!
This time, the severed wound did not have swirling shamanic aura, and it couldn't heal quickly. Although there was no bleeding, it was as if the severed neck had lost all life force.
The Gu Shen, though not known for its physical strength, had an extremely powerful life force.
Despite being split in half by Xu Yuanzhen's halberd, both halves of its body remained alive.
But Xu Yuanzhen raised her halberd and stepped forward again.
Although her Hundun Ji lacked fluidity and didn't match her usual style, it was perfect for dealing with the Gu Shen.
The Liheng Halberd slashed down again, cutting the opponent into four pieces.
Compared to the serenity of Xu Yuanzhen's Tai Shang Miefa, Tang Xiaotang's side was much more chaotic.
Zu Tao Tie, headless, still had a black hole-like wound on its neck, emitting a terrifying suction force that devoured everything around it.
Tang Xiaotang's Tai Chu Qi had the domineering ability to revert all techniques to their formless and intangible state.
But Zu Tao Tie tried to devour and refine even such an existence.
"Good, I've seen the power of Hundun and Qiong Qi before, and now I'll experience the might of Tao Tie!"
Tang Xiaotang shouted, and her figure rushed forward. Her Tai Chu Qi ignited, transforming into dazzling flames that spread in all directions.
Countless tiny specks of light, as fine as dust, appeared.
These were Tang Xiaotang's Opening Pearls.
In an instant, they enveloped Zu Tao Tie.
Tang Xiaotang didn't need to do anything further, as Zu Tao Tie naturally sucked in the Opening Pearls like dust.
Its devouring and refining abilities were indeed powerful. This demon saint, injured by Di Yuan and Lei Jun, devoured numerous Opening Pearls, but its body remained in place.
However, the Opening Pearls that exploded outward also stopped.
Inside its belly, it seemed like an intense battle was taking place.
The Opening Pearls still floating outside Zu Tao Tie's body also exploded, instantly creating numerous wounds on its surface.
But except for the severed neck wound, which remained motionless, all other wounds on Zu Tao Tie's body turned into giant mouths, devouring everything around them.
"Let's see how much you can eat?"
As Tang Xiaotang spoke, her figure flickered, and her Qi transformed into the Three Purities. Three of her simultaneously asked, and in the blink of an eye, they appeared beside Zu Tao Tie.
One held the Inverse Yuan Sword, achieved through reversing the Hongmeng.
One held the initial Caoyuan Pearl.
One held the Black and White Taiji Diagram, unleashing the Pre-Heaven Qi Dragon-Tiger Strike.
The three Tang Xiaotangs approached Zu Tao Tie from three directions, attacking from extremely close range.
Falling onto Zu Tao Tie, the wounds on its body that had transformed into "giant mouths" were instantly torn to shreds.
However, Zu Tao Tie's body, shrouded in blood and flesh, trembled violently with a surge of demonic energy, and its injuries became even more severe, transforming into an even greedier abyssal maw.
But before this newly formed maw could devour everything around it, three figures of Tang Xiaotang flashed and disappeared from their original positions.
When they reappeared, they were all in front of Zu Tao Tie, their bodies merging and moving as one. Simultaneously, they pressed their right palms towards Zu Tao Tie, and in the end, only one palm landed on the body of this demon race grand sage.
After the Three Purities merged into one Qi...
The Three Purities returned to a single Qi.
The powerful force, mysterious and profound, acted without a sound, and in an instant, Zu Tao Tie's body was completely pierced through! The wounds on the demon race grand sage's body, front and back, trembled slightly, but it could no longer evolve to devour the heavens and earth. Its demonic energy and malevolent aura instantly weakened and faded.
As Wang Guiyuan, Xu Yuanzhen, and Tang Xiaotang simultaneously dealt further heavy blows to Da Mie Pusa, Gu Shen, and Zu Tao Tie, they began to kill them within the grand formation. In the vast Daoist formation, the originally three large voids began to have a large amount of invisible and formless profound and wondrous Qi converging.
On the other side, the battle between the two strongest beings of this era was reaching its climax.
The Three Caverns and Three Purities Realm achieved by the Daoist Talisman School's Dong Zhen Tianzun was filled with flowing and ever-changing Qi, and his entire person seemed to merge with the natural creation of the universe.
Lei Jun achieved the Dao Jue · Zhongmei Zhi Men, and in this aspect, his divine might was even more remarkable than Gao Tian Sui.
However, Di Yuan's talent was also exceptional, and he gradually adapted to the changes in Lei Jun's cultivation method.
His tightly clenched fist suddenly opened at a certain moment.
Then, his five fingers grabbed onto empty space.
In an instant, he grasped the frame of the "door."
The Zhongmei Zhi Men's changes also stagnated at this moment.
Lei Jun and Di Yuan seemed to stand face-to-face across the door at this moment.
Di Yuan also noticed the changes in the grand formation.
Although he had not cultivated the Daoist Talisman School's cultivation method, he possessed the talent of Huang Tian, which was essentially equivalent to the Taoist Wuji in many cases. Moreover, during his first battle when he was sealed, he had encountered Zhao Kejian, the 10th generation Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain, who had achieved the Third Level of the Fairyland.
In an instant, he grasped the constantly changing directions of the three voids within the formation.
The grand formation manifested the Three Purities and Three Treasures Realm.
The three Qis of Xuan, Yuan, and Shi interacted with each other.
Thus, the Qingwei Tian Yuqing Jing, Yu Yu Tian Shangqing Jing, and Da Chi Tian Taiqing Jing were born.
Within Lei Jun's Three Caverns and Three Purities Realm after achieving the Dao Dao Hong Zhen, the three Qis further evolved.
At the same time, Lei Jun and the others were equivalent to having offered sacrifices to Gu Shen, Zu Tao Tie, and Da Mie Pusa, three beings who had already opened the Daoist door.
This went against the Taoist principle of valuing life, but it also created an extremely powerful killing intent.
If it weren't for Lei Jun, a Taoist Tianzun with the Wuji Stance, presiding over and controlling the formation, it might have fallen into the hands of evil at any moment.
However, precisely because of this, the formation would become a rare killing formation in history, and it would fully erupt today.
The formation to destroy the world and the Dao!
As for the function and purpose of this formation, Di Yuan also understood without difficulty.
It was precisely to sever and break his immortal and indestructible, eternal and unbreakable life force.
Under normal circumstances, the Martial Saint could only be suppressed and sealed, and it was impossible to truly kill him.
But Lei Jun was about to create this rare exception from the very foundation of the Daoist principles, recreating the ancient event of the fall of Huang Tian in the distant past.
However, Di Yuan didn't care.
Because the other party was destined to fail.
He had already grasped Lei Jun's Three Caverns and Three Purities Realm.
Not only the Zhongmei Zhi Men, but even the changes in the surrounding Daoist formation, all came to a halt.
Achieving the Taoist Cultivation Realm with the Wuji Stance was indeed superior to other Taoist Tianzuns, but it was still flashy and insubstantial! When Di Yuan made his move, there were no various changes, and with just the force of his five fingers, it was as if he was twisting the frame of the "door."
He also had his own Martial Dao path, one of simplicity and strength.
The Martial Dao changes had completely disappeared, leaving only pure power.
It could twist and destroy all the profound and wondrous principles and realms of the world.
Or, one could say that all the profound and wondrous principles and realms had already merged into his power.
He himself seemed like an embodiment of strength and the Dao.
This was also the path of Huang Tian in the past.
All things, phenomena, and laws, all spirits and wonders, could be shattered with a single punch.
