Chapter 1533: Chapters 1480-1481 Confrontation Between the Strong_2 Chapter 1533: Chapters 1480-1481 Confrontation Between the Strong_2 But under the current circumstances, if the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder were to truly engage in combat with the Jade Emperor, let alone the absence of Yu Zhenzi, even if he were here, he would not be able to force a powerful being to change their own will.
After all, with the presence of the Longevity Taoist Monarch, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder may respect the opposition, but this does not mean that the opposition can use the Longevity Taoist Monarch's name to command him. That would be a contempt and insult to the strong, which even Longevity Taoist Monarch would not support.
When a cultivator reaches a certain status in their cultivation, they naturally gain a matching position and authority. If one has risen to the position of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder and still cannot control themselves, then what is the point?
Such powerful beings like the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, even when following commands, still retain considerable autonomy.
Moreover, now that he is facing this incarnation of the Jade Emperor, he is quite confident; even if he were to fail, he could prevent this artifact from falling into the hands of the Jade Emperor.
“I do not know what gives you such confidence, but since you seek death, I shall grant it,” the Jade Emperor said, his expression cold as he faced the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder.
As a True Immortal of the Sixth Heavenly Layer, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder is a top-tier existence even within the Divine Land World, yet he is not worthy of special attention from the Jade Emperor.
Given the Jade Emperor's current position, authority, and power, those who might warrant his attention are either Taoist Monarchs of the Seventh Layer or like the several Imperial Honors of Heavenly Court, who possess infinite authority.
However, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder has neither reached the level nor does he possess the power that would warrant attention from the Jade Emperor.
Now, having his plans hindered by the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder had already incensed the Jade Emperor greatly. The audacity of the latter to challenge him was utterly ignorant of impending doom.
At this moment, the Jade Emperor had decided to slay this incarnation of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, even if this move was instigated by the Shenxiao Sect.
Or perhaps it could be said that it is precisely because the Shenxiao Sect directed the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder to sabotage his plans that it roused further dissatisfaction and annoyance in the Jade Emperor, yet he was powerless against the Shenxiao Lineage, at least for now.
Even though there had been conflicts between him and the Shenxiao Lineage initially, over the years there had been a state of non-interference. Although he knew the Shenxiao Sect sometimes joined others in suppressing his authority, as long as there were no outright betrayals, he would bear it.
After all, under the current circumstances, he could not provoke more adversaries, especially with the united fronts of several Imperial Honors within the Heavenly Court already placing great pressure on the Jade Emperor.
However, while he didn't provoke the Shenxiao Lineage, they kept troubling him, which certainly infuriated the Jade Emperor. Even if he recognized that the situation was unfavorable, he couldn't just endure everything.
He felt it necessary to strike back at the Shenxiao Lineage to let them know that he was not someone to be trifled with.
However, how to strike back without completely alienating the Shenxiao Lineage required a careful balance.
The challenge from the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder appeared to the Jade Emperor as an excellent opportunity. If he could suppress this incarnation and retrieve the Great Law Decree Technique, there was no doubt that it would serve as a beneficial counterattack against the Shenxiao Sect.
This Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, representing the Shenxiao Lineage, must face the consequences of crushing the Shenxiao Sect's plan and utterly disgracing them.
“Why are you so confident, Jade Emperor?” the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder scoffed.
Indeed, the opponent is a Taoist Monarch, but just because it's an incarnation doesn't mean the Jade Emperor's incarnation is stronger than his own.
Knowing that upon arriving in this world, he had made all the necessary preparations, or rather, he was ready to confront the Jade Emperor directly.
With such thorough preparations, if he still lacked the courage to challenge when directly facing the Jade Emperor's incarnation, then why wait here at all? It would be better to just leave.
After many years spent in this Myriad Laws Realm, he understood the Jade Emperor's plans clearly and had had countless opportunities to seize the Great Law Decree Technique earlier and leave.
The reason he had waited until today was to await the arrival of the Jade Emperor and seek an opportunity to confront him.
“Confident or not, let's see what skills you have. Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, you are indeed a notable figure in this Divine Land World, but it remains to be seen if you live up to your reputation!” Without further ado, the Jade Emperor made his move.
Boom!
With a single palm strike, the Jade Emperor unleashed a massive hand imprint that silently arrived before the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, manifesting as if from thin air.
The Void Palm Imprint, an extremely powerful Divine Ability, once cast, could harness a terrifying force to transcend space and strike, considered a top-tier Divine Ability in both the Myriad Laws Realm and the Divine Land World, exclusive to True Immortals.
At this moment, in the hands of the Jade Emperor, a Taoist Monarch, it had reached the pinnacle of perfection, unlike other True Immortals' manifestations that shook space with a mighty presence, his Void Palm Imprint had become one with the void, omnipresent.
Such a fearsome top-tier Divine Ability was unpredictable and hard to counter for many True Immortals.
However, his opponent was not just anyone, it was the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, who was only a step away from reaching the level of a Taoist Monarch and possessed extensive experience in combative slaughter.
Accordingly, the moment the Jade Emperor made his move, the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder instantly reacted and responded.
Thunder Rage!
With a single thought, the skies stirred and the celestial phenomena altered, countless thunders howled, turning the region around the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder into a sea of thunder, engulfing the void.
The technique of the Void Palm Imprint emphasized appearing unobserved and striking when least expected.
But in this vast sea of thunder, as the pioneer of this realm, it was akin to being in his own domain, where he controlled everything.
“Void Palm Imprint, is that all?” scoffed the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder as he struck back.
Wind Thunder Slash!
Boundless murderous aura boiled, erupting from the seemingly frail body of the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder. Heaven unleashed a murderous intent, shifting stars and constellations; Earth unleashed a murderous intent, raising dragons and serpents; Human unleashed a murderous intent, upturning heaven and earth.
As this unparalleled powerhouse raged, the murderous energy surged violently, dimming the skies and darkening the sun and moon.
Winds and thunders collided, thrusting into the clouds, endless winds and thunders converged as if forming the Divine Blade of Wind and Thunder, constantly gathering strength and slashing towards the Jade Emperor.
This was originally a killing move mastered by the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, evolved over tens of thousands of years, amalgamating the Divine Abilities of the Divine Land World and the essence of countless worlds' Cultivation systems, massively amplifying its power.
“Quell!” The Jade Emperor, expressionless, silent, and unfazed by the adversary's strike, simply threw a punch.
Heavenly Emperor Divine Fist!
This Martial Study, originally belonging to the Great Ming Empire, evolved as the Jade Emperor embarked on Cultivation, inheriting legacies from many rulers of the human race, and after ascending to the role of the Emperor of Heaven, amassed countless years of Qi Luck, had renewed itself and carved out his own path.
A single punch, and the world submitted.
This was a magnificent and domineering fist technique, subjugating all of the ancient heavens, making all adversaries submit before him.
Boom!
Around the original position of the Jade Emperor were some subordinates, among them a few True Immortals or incarnations with comparable power to True Immortals gathered as well.
At this moment, the incarnations of these two were indeed at the level between the True Immortal Third Layer Heaven and not entering the True Immortal Fourth Layer Heaven, for the upper limit of this Myriad Laws Realm was such, so logically speaking, those mighty beings under the Jade Emperor should have been qualified to join in.
However, every time these two powerhouses made a move, the force unleashed was enough to shatter the limits of this realm; originally they thought to join forces with the Jade Emperor to besiege the Saint Lord of Wind and Thunder, but unexpectedly, once the two powerhouses engaged, they found themselves unqualified to even approach the core of the battlefield, retreating one after another.
