Taiyi Dao Fruit

The Nine Curves Yellow River Formation is ultimately just an array formation; if one does not enter it, no matter how formidable the killing power, it is difficult to impose it upon the enemy.

Even the Heavenly Monarch can easily make a move, not only because of the Self's Divine Skills "Sealing Heaven" but also due to the factors of the Nine Curves Yellow River Formation, ensuring that Heaven does not cast its gaze upon oneself.

However, at this moment, the Heavenly Monarch transforms the array into his body, converting the formation that was originally directed inwards to project outwards. A vague gigantic shadow strikes down from the sky, causing the twin suns to lose their brilliance, and gloom shrouds the heavens and the earth.

Under the blow of a palm, the sun and moon lose their light, and murky waves surge up, covering the heavens and the earth, as boundless ferocity expands, with the dark wind and black mist blowing over the four directions, seemingly intending to envelop the surrounding world into the array formation.

Previously, during the Heavenly Monarch's move, although appearing fierce, he employed killing intent and Divine Evil, yet his move was still grand. Now using the Nine Curves Yellow River Formation as the body, his move changes with the murky force, showing undeniable peril and peculiarity.

Heaven and earth turned upside down, causing sensory dislocation, as the dark wind erodes divine thoughts, obscuring the heart, and where the murky waves reach, they erode the body into Qi.

"The Nine Provinces and all directions return to this body."

Jiang Li faces this sky-shrouding giant palm directly, with the power of the Nine Provinces descending from a distance, a gigantic map of the Nine Provinces emerges behind, and the Innate Eight Sceneries manifest upon intent.

The Eight Sceneries represent all phenomena of the universe, as the Nine Provinces and Eight Sceneries align, Jiang Li's surroundings swell in unison, turning illusion into reality.

"Mountain Ghost God Shock."

No need for any move, Jiang Li softly mutters, turning mountains into form, five peaks stand firmly, transforming into a giant palm to greet.

Palm meets palm, mountain meets river, as the mountain stands tall and the murky waves surge, the two collide—

Shaking the heavens and earth!

"Bang!"

The sky dome quakes, with murky waves washing over the mountains, emitting the roaring sound of tidal waves, as airwaves surge, sweeping across a hundred miles of sky, making both the Yinglong Dragon and the Drought Demon Ba pause in their confrontation, focusing on resisting the aftershock.

Such aftershocks, although not as grand as witnessed previously in the Buddha Land Space, are not far off.

With the support of the Nine Provinces, Jiang Li's power is not beneath that of the Supreme Heavenly Monarch.

"The strength brought by the Emperor Dao Fruit to its bearer is unmatched by any third grade."

The gigantic shadow, shrouded in the dark wind and black mist, uttered a hollow voice, "Alas, the Great Zhou is no longer the past Great Zhou, and the Emperor Dao Fruit is not the same as before. Though you used the 'Yin Talisman Scripture' to defy heavenly intent, preserving your spiritual wisdom, it also prevents you from ascending to the realm of us. Even embracing the enlightenment of past emperors of Great Zhou cannot quickly assimilate it."

Without the blessing of the Heavenly Heart, this enlightenment is more like memory.

The sacrificial altar of the Great Zhou is now in a state of uncertainty, and a misstep may lead to its downfall. The Heavenly Monarch's previous measures have caused the Nine Provinces to fracture. Now, on the map of the Nine Provinces behind Jiang Li, many areas are dim and unable to provide much power.

He cannot step into the realm of the Supreme, being a line weaker than the Heavenly Monarch in the realm; even though not weak compared to the Heavenly Monarch, he cannot manifest the overwhelming effect of annihilating numerous powers with one force.

Previously, he was able to heavily wound the Heavenly Monarch with the Emperor Sword by having intention strike against unpreparedness, now—

Space weaves through nine turns, the Yellow River flows, the gigantic mountain is corroded into riddled holes and crumbles within a moment, only to see the Yellow River descending from the sky, rushing forward, flooding the marshland, destroying wind and thunder, with four of the Eight Sceneries submerging, yet the murky waves show no sign of halting.

Gracefully drifting, deeply enigmatic, unstoppable in its momentum.

But at this time, Jiang Li still doesn't bring out any other trump cards; the Military God's Five Weapons which he had gathered in his hand are nowhere to be seen, only gathering the Innate Eight Sceneries.

"Yin and Yang illuminate each other, complement and regulate, the four seasons succeed one another, create, and destroy each other."

With the voice echoing, the four scenes that had been broken are reformed, with the Taiji revolving, vaguely taking shape.

Then, thunder and wind resonate!

"Rumble!"

A clap of Spring Thunder roars, bringing abundant vitality, as strikes of Jing Lei thunder down on the Yellow River, with thunder clashing against murky waves.

And then True Sun Fire descends from the sky, accompanied by Xia, and double suns reappear in the sky dome, with Golden Flames burning the dark wind and black mist, breaking through the dim and murky scene.

"My disciple's realm is indeed a line weaker than that of the elder, knowing something while constantly feeling there's a layer of separation, it is indeed rather uncomfortable."

Jiang Li stands calmly in the air, not hastily yet said leisurely, "But sometimes, perhaps just knowing is sufficient."

Knowing doesn't necessarily equate to mastery, in the realm of cultivation, pre-emptive knowledge may even create an invisible bottleneck, making breakthrough more challenging. This is commonly referred to as the barrier of knowledge.

Even for Jiang Li, the barrier of knowledge is not easy to traverse.

However, being unable to cross doesn't mean it cannot be circumvented.

"Heaven and Earth live with me, and all things are one with me."

As these words were spoken, the Innate Eight Sceneries merged into Jiang Li's body one after another.

"Qian Form Heaven."

"Kun Form Earth."

The body merges with the universe, appearing with a gigantic form in a blink.

"Yang-shaped Sun."

"Yin-shaped Moon."

The True Sun Fire gathers in the left eye, while Taiyin Energy transforms into the Moon Wheel in the right eye.

"Earth Form Mountain."

"Water Formation River."

"Rain Cloud."

"Wind Form Qi."

The myriad phenomena of Heaven and Earth all enter the body, making one's body like Heaven and Earth, encompassing Heaven and Earth.

This is the great achievement of "Form Tomb."

Jiang Li was actually a bit short of this realm. Once he could transform the insights of past emperors for his own use, or reach the realm of Supreme, it would naturally come to fruition.

But now, Jiang Li had directly achieved it.

No, it should be said he's achieved it temporarily.

"[Oral Heavenly Constitution]!" An empty voice echoed from within the shadowy mist, carrying a noticeable fluctuation.

The realm's explanation is mysterious and profound, but to put it bluntly, it's about the use of power. The "Oral Heavenly Constitution" divine skill of the Emperor Dao Fruit is a way to wield power.

By utilizing the power of the Nine Provinces through simple speech, the emperor only needs to provide power and intent, leaving the rest to the divine skill to handle.

Although this incurs unnecessary consumption, it doesn't matter because the emperor's least concern is a lack of power.

Before the deceased former emperor's battle at Ziwei Hall, he used [Oral Heavenly Constitution] to forcibly accelerate time, allowing the Immortality Elixir to be completed ahead of schedule. Now, Jiang Li was using a similar method to experience the effects brought by that realm.

However, Jiang Li's usage might be unprecedented in the Great Zhou's eight hundred years, among all past emperors.

They directly assimilated with Heaven, ascending in one step. What they knew was what they could do, rendering the use of divine skills unnecessary. This led the Heavenly Monarch to never have thought Jiang Li had such a move.

Even Jiang Li had only conceived of it before. He discovered that his Dao Fruit divine power [Emperor Emerges from Zhen] is the prototype of [Oral Heavenly Constitution]. Compared to [Oral Heavenly Constitution], it actually has a deeper impact on all things in Heaven and Earth, perhaps achieving a unique operation.

And the result was as such.

Embodied as Heaven and Earth, achieved "Form Tomb," transforming into an enormous divine body. This is Fatian Xiangdi, but somewhat different from Qingyuan Miaodao True Monarch's [Fatian Xiangdi].

The feeling... it's like passing through a layer of white mist, no longer seeing flowers in a haze, piercing a layer of window paper to see the truth.

"So that's how it is."

Jiang Li laughed heartily, reaching out to grab, the mighty river was grasped by him. Though it seemed to be water that gathered and scattered at will, at this moment it was as if it had form, firmly held in Jiang Li's hand.

Then, infinite strength surged from his palm, the river under pressure emitted strands of runes.

This is the rune of the Sealing Immortal Technique.

The Nine Curves Yellow River Formation has such ferocious might, harming those of the third grade, besides the mystery of the formation itself, also involves the Dazzling Immortal Pill and Sealing Immortal Technique. Together, they have the power to strike down Immortal Gods.

If the Mixed Element Golden Bowl for capturing enemies was added, even the formation's flaw of being difficult to project outward could be remedied.

At this moment, Jiang Li's palm exuded power, forcibly expelling the runes of the Sealing Immortal Technique, shattering inch by inch, the dirty waves exploding, impacting Jiang Li but failing to harm him, instead being refined into his own Primordial Qi.

Even more so, the Five Vile Qi poured in, transforming into Primordial Qi within his body.

At this moment, Jiang Li embodied Heaven and Earth, his inhalation and exhalation abilities had increased a hundredfold, the Five Vile Qi entered his body, his momentum surged, and with a reverse palm, he struck towards the blurred giant shadow. The space collapsed under great force, dispersing the spatial inversion brought by the Nine Curves Yellow River Formation.

"Martial Uncle, why don't you take a move from your Junior Nephew as well."

Also attacking with a giant palm, though it lacked the mysterious transformation of the Heavenly Monarch's, it carried the weight of Heaven and Earth.

The palm manifested the color of mountain rock, with one strike it was like Mount Tai crushing, its power unmatched.

The Heavenly Monarch said nothing, only the blurred giant shadow raised an arm to block, as the river of filth and immense power ground the earth, the shadowy mist collided fiercely with the erupting Primordial Qi.

Under the illumination of dual suns, the two enormous shadows battled, the formation operation visible in their exchanges, space changing, yet shattered by immense force.

The shadowy mist and True Sun Fire interacting, creating billowing thick smoke.

The ground trembled with countless boulders from the aftershock, yet to the two combatants, it was as insignificant as dust.

"Martial Uncle, why don't you come out of the Nine Curves Yellow River Formation?"

Jiang Li struck with both palms, suddenly his arms transformed, one became an Yinglong Dragon, the other an Azure Dragon, the twin dragons roared, scattering the shadowy mist, revealing a slightly transparent blurred shadow.

The Nine Curves Yellow River flowed within the shadow, the formation operated, space unpredictably altering, making the Yellow River flow everywhere.

The twin dragons' onslaught caused the formation of the shadow's arms to crack layer by layer, yet the myriad transformations within the Nine Curves were elusive.

But it didn't matter, Jiang Li had another helper.

Suddenly, a remnant shadow manifested, ripples emerged, resembling the flow of an invisible long river.

The specter-faced man's silhouette emerged from the ripples, shouting, "Brothers, I will assist you."

Don't think that just because the Heavenly Monarch and Great Venerable collaborated once, they became allies. Compared to stopping the Awakened from advancing, Great Venerable actually wanted more to reclaim the power of Heaven from the Heavenly Monarch.

After all, this is the power of the Feng family, how could they allow outsiders to meddle.
