Taiyi Dao Fruit

Chapter 197: Demon Refining Pot and Evil Summoning Banner


The Dragon Armor Divine Chapter is the source of Qimen Dunjia and also the "Qiankun Yi" of the Ji Family.

Jiang Li himself has already deduced the "Gui Cang Yi".

The Wind Queen's Strange Gate is a fusion of the Yi from the Feng family and Qimen Dunjia. Though it cannot encompass the entirety of the "Lianshan Yi", it has at least captured part of its essence.

Jiang Li, now, is seemingly integrating the Three Changes; although not in its full version, at least he can fashion a low-grade fusion. Throughout history, there may be others who understood the Yi of the three families like him, but those who can perfectly assimilate all three are likely only Jiang Li.

This is related to the path he himself walks.

All four plates appear, with the Eight Trigrams as the foundation, unfurling the Eight Gates and Nine Stars, crowned by the Eight Gods, simulating one thousand and eighty array formations, and further expanding upwards, presenting the Yin-Yang Five Elements, Three Wonders and Six Forms, and the Cycle Stars in sequence.

Jiang Li's acupoints emit beams of light, sketching a grand and intricate Complete Heaven Sphere, with symbols of Heaven and Earth, the sun, moon, and stars all manifesting within, resembling a small universe.

The Yi Dao Xuan Technique is pushed to the extreme, and Jiang Li's perception seems to elevate, observing natural changes, the flow of Qi Mechanism, the motion of space, entering the microscopic and the essence, and eventually viewing causality.

The surroundings subtly darken, countless causality threads emerge before Jiang Li's eyes, and the dense lines extend towards him.

Compared to the past, Jiang Li can now see more causality threads; even the faintest light does not escape his sight.

Unlike the Awakened, who has only a handful of causality threads, Jiang Li possesses innumerable ones, too many to perceive all at once. However, when these countless causality threads are about to connect with Jiang Li, they inexplicably vanish for a segment, as if directly severed.

Yet from the minute fluctuations on the causality threads, it is clear that the cause and effect are not completely broken but are converging on Jiang Li in some unknown form.

'This must be the causality convergence of the Karma Collection.'

Seeing this, Jiang Li finally comprehended the Awakened's words from that day.

Though the Awakened couldn't see Jiang Li's causality, he could observe Jiang Li approaching by surveying causality, because Jiang Li is like a black hole of causality, constantly converging related causality, even distorting nearby causality to incline towards himself, like a compelling force.

The Awakened also possessed Jiang Li's current perceptive capacity, unable to see Jiang Li's causality but seeing a large empty hole in the causality net.

'This is truly as if hiding money in plain sight.'

Jiang Li scoffed inwardly, then analyzed the causality to seek the thread related to the Great Venerable.

[As Jiang Li's perception continued, he found fluctuations in the causality thread that seemed to correspond to some existence, intertwined with······]

Jiang Li looked towards the Karma Collection, which vividly appeared in this vision.

The fluctuations of causality resonated with the Karma Collection.

When Jiang Li realized this, the color of the Karma Collection's pages suddenly deepened, changing its appearance, with lines of text emerging, covering page after page.

Jiang Li understood, 'The causality convergence of the Karma Collection manifests in the form of text; the contents of those myriad causality threads are ultimately recorded in the Karma Collection. However, compared to the usual records of Jiang Li's experiences, these causality records are exceedingly numerous and dense. If they were to manifest, I would not have been able to overlook them before'.

This information flooded directly into Jiang Li's mind like seawater, allowing him to receive the information without reading it in detail, akin to quantum speed reading.

If the past Jiang Li had been able to bear this information, he would still have struggled to process it.

And as this information entered his mind, Jiang Li finally understood why he was able to inadvertently deduce Feng Manlou in the past.

The converged causality doesn't sever; for Jiang Li, when causality with Feng Manlou emerged, he had already grasped a thread. As long as he could break through the other's barriers, he could trace it and calculate the other party.

Back then, Feng Manlou probably did not expect Jiang Li, a small cultivator, to directly calculate him and then keenly perceive Jiang's potential, promptly swearing brotherhood with Jiang Li.

Previously, Jiang Li's impromptu decision was a stroke of fortune that led him to the causality thread; now, he has sufficient Realm to proactively grasp the thread.

The causality line related to the Great Venerable was directly extracted from the vast records, and the light around rapidly flowed, tracing this causality line back to the Great Venerable.

However—

A river-like band of light suddenly appeared, spanning across the front, with innumerable stars moving within, blocking Jiang Li's pursuit.

The dark scene suddenly transformed into a magnificent cosmic sight, with the starry band resembling a Milky Way, becoming the greatest barrier obstructing Jiang Li.

Causality threads do not break, but tracing them back requires substantial capability.

Thanks to Jiang Li's actions, the Great Venerable is now fully guarded against any threats since first being deduced by Jiang Li and subsequently observed by Tianxuan through Jiang Li's Qi Shu.

"The Book of Luo River Map?"

Jiang Li softly murmured, his thoughts quick as lightning, penetrating into the Star River.

Like a fish entering the rivers, the "river water" surged, with space constantly flowing and changing, requiring the fish to adapt to the changes, to charge forward, while also evading some overwhelming undercurrents.

Lightning flashed across the Star River, changing its course, and externally, it manifested as the Complete Heaven Sphere accelerating its rotation.

Reflecting with the heart of the Supreme Person, the movement of the Star River was fed back to the Array Plate, simulating a Star Map, with one thousand and eighty array formations constantly shifting, calculating responses, while the Three Wonders and Six Forms, Eight Gates and Nine Stars also kept changing accordingly.

"Found it."

The Primordial Lord Rain Master saw the Complete Heaven Sphere formed by the Array Plate accelerate, and his dragon eyes lit up brightly.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Li truly grasped the karma of the Great Venerable, tracing it back to his location.

However, judging by Jiang Li's situation, the process did not appear smooth.

The Primordial Lord Rain Master's eyes flickered with brilliance, suddenly speaking: "I will take over the Dragon Armor Divine Chapter, Fellow Daoist Jiang, you focus on deducing the breakthrough path."

As he spoke, the Yinglong Dragon spat out a stream of Primordial Qi, entering the Array Plate, merging into the Dragon Armor Divine Chapter.

As a former elder of Tianxuan, the Primordial Lord Rain Master naturally had no lack of Yi Dao proficiency. Though due to different inclinations, choosing the fighting path, he wasn't as advanced as Jiang Li and Tianxuan now, but he was still a rare Yi Dao expert.

Otherwise, the Rain Master wouldn't have been able to infiltrate the Taiping Sect for years.

Engaging with the Great Venerable, for someone like him aspiring towards Dao, was undoubtedly an opportunity not to be missed. Moreover, his Qi mechanism resonated with Jiang Li's, enabling him to intervene in the array formation and take over the Dragon Armor Divine Chapter.

Simultaneously, lines of white light connected the array layout, making Jiang Li's Array Plate operate more smoothly.

This was the Rain Master's true fourth-grade Dao Fruit—Silkworm God's Divine Skill.

As Lei Zu, the pioneer of mulberry cultivation and silk weaving, revered as the "First Silkworm God," his divine skill focused on compiling and crafting, Rain Master combines this divine skill with his Qi Men skill, achieving the weaving of Qi veins and masquerading the ability of karma.

The Three-Phases Transformation Skill was founded based on this.

At this moment, the Primordial Lord Rain Master made his move, aiding Jiang Li with support. Under the operation of the Three Changes, thoughts as light as lightning were about to traverse the Star River in an instant, breaking through the Great Venerable's defenses.

In perception, a colossal red Divine Dragon coiled within the Star River, its eyes slightly drooping, seemingly asleep.

Jiang Li's actions evidently alarmed this red Divine Dragon, as the light of the sun and moon began to rise within its eyes.

But it was too late; Jiang Li was on the brink of breaking through the Star River, even if the Great Venerable detected it in time and acted to prevent it, the moment they made contact, Jiang Li would have a general feeling of the Great Venerable's whereabouts.

However······

As success was at hand, within Jiang Li's "field of vision," the massive figure of the red Divine Dragon rapidly shrank, transforming into a human shape. Subsequently, a bronze pot appeared in front of that figure, shooting a green light from its mouth, and within the brilliance, a grand banner unfurled.

Heavy atmosphere emerged with the banner from the pot's mouth, spirals of green aura circling the banner, with strange shadows flashing within.

Dragons, tigers, qilins, flowers, birds, insects, fishes······a myriad of demonic shadows danced around the banner, and waves of demonic energy converged on its surface, becoming layers of imprints.

The Great Venerable's figure was enveloped by the banner's shadow, while the banner itself fluttered upwards, unleashing a demonic wind.

The thought that had just passed through the Star River was struck by the demonic wind head-on, retreating directly into the Star River, where all the stars seemed to transform into illusions, allowing the thought to pass through, retreating straight back to Jiang Li's body.

Meanwhile, the Primordial Lord Rain Master, who was in charge of the Dragon Armor Divine Chapter, was as if struck by a thunder strike, his figure shook, nearly falling from midair.

"It's the Demon Refining Pot." Yinglong steadied himself, panting as he spoke.

Yinglong, being a Dragon God, belonging to the Divine Attribute, not the demon kind, but dragons themselves, if strictly classified, still relate to demons. The Demon Refining Pot to demons is like the God-beating Whip to divinities, a profound restraint.

Indeed, the Demon Refining Pot contained the Wa Emperor Dao Fruit, ranking two levels higher than the God-beating Whip.

Jiang Li simultaneously jerked his head back, his psychic senses having returned to his body.

He also felt a throbbing pain in his forehead, a loss in divine thought, and spoke quietly: "And that flag, gathering the qi of the Devil God Sect members."

The Great Venerable protected the Devil God Sect members, their qi, conversely bolstering the Great Venerable. Once the Great Venerable utilized the Demon Refining Pot, displayed the flag, no one in this world could truly grasp the karma of the Great Venerable.

Even Jiang Li, though having a path, without breaking through that flag, could never follow the path to the end.

In this skirmish, it became evident that the Great Venerable's position in Yi Dao remained unshakable.

The only gain might be that the Great Venerable was deliberately concealing his traces.

That is to say, Feng Manlou was not returning, at least not for the time being, furthermore, he had blocked any means to spy on him.

The observing Princess noticed this point, a blazing Flame Qi erupted from her body.

She cast a cold glance at the yet undispersed Array Plate, as though wishing to see Feng Manlou's figure through it, then turned and left.
