425: Chapter 429 Fighting to the Point of Madness!
As Venerable Ming Gu dissolved into nothingness, two figures stood facing each other from a distance on the battlefield.
The air solidified like ice.
Yun Chenzi stood in the Void Realm with his hands behind his back, black and white Qi slowly circulating around him. His eyes, containing the phantom images of the taiji diagram, watched Jiang Wunian opposite him as calmly as still water.
His robes fluttered slightly in the wind, and no excess aura leaked from his body.
Yet, that invisible sense of pressure was like a ten-thousand-ton mountain, causing the air for a hundred miles around to creak and groan.
Jiang Wunian also stood in the Void Realm. The rainbow-colored mist around him had mostly withdrawn, leaving only a faint, flickering halo enveloping his body.
A trace of a satisfied smile still hung at the corner of his mouth—the residual pleasure from devouring Venerable Ming Gu.
However, his eyes were fixed dead on Yun Chenzi, like a venomous snake waiting for the right moment to strike.
The Void Realm between the two seemed to be torn in half by an invisible force.
One half was clearly black and white, orderly and disciplined; the other half was a blurred rainbow, chaotic and eerie.
Jiang Wunian tilted his head, a provocative smile curling on his lips.
Yun Chenzi did not speak, merely raising his right hand slowly.
This movement was like lighting a fuse.
BOOM!!!
Both figures vanished from their spots simultaneously!
In the next instant, they collided with a thunderous crash deep within the Void Realm!
Yun Chenzi struck with a palm, his black and white Qi transforming into a massive Yin-Yang fish that opened its giant maw to bite down on Jiang Wunian's head!
As the Yin-Yang fish swam, the Void Realm distorted along with it, as if it were the Dominator of this world itself!
Jiang Wunian gave a cold snort and formed hand seals. The rainbow mist around him surged abruptly, transforming into an equally massive rainbow demonic claw that lunged fiercely toward the Yin-Yang fish!
Rumble!
The moment the Yin-Yang fish collided with the rainbow demonic claw, the Void Realm shattered like a broken mirror, exploding with countless pitch-black cracks!
Violent energy aftershocks rippled outward, sweeping away the clouds for dozens of miles and causing even the earth to tremble violently!
With one strike, both men were pushed back a hundred yards!
But a mere breath later, they charged forward again!
This time, Yun Chenzi no longer held back.
His hands changed seals as fast as lightning, and five massive phantoms of the taiji diagram suddenly surfaced behind him!
Each taiji diagram contained a different celestial phenomenon.
Sun and Moon, Stars, Water and Fire, Wind and Thunder, Mountains and Marshes!
The five phenomena burst into light simultaneously, illuminating half the sky with brilliance!
"Five Directions Taiji Yin-Yang Formation!"
With a low shout from Yun Chenzi, the five taiji diagrams rotated in unison, pressing down toward Jiang Wunian with a thunderous force!
This was a Formation based on the Law of Yin and Yang, manifesting five types of worldly Laws to create a seal capable of suppressing all things!
Ordinary Golden Core Perfection cultivators would cough up blood and be severely injured even if they were only grazed by one of the taiji diagrams!
However, Jiang Wunian showed no sign of panic.
"A mere Formation thinks it can suppress this seat?"
He gave a sinister laugh and slammed his palms together. Six massive phantoms suddenly appeared around him.
These were the six Dharma Idols of the Six Desires Heavenly Demon!
The Dharma Idol of Slaughter held a blood-blade; with one slash, blood-light filled the sky!
The Dharma Idol of Greed opened its giant maw and swallowed, devouring heaven and earth!
The Dharma Idol of Folly had blurred eyes that shot out two eerie beams of light, piercing straight into the heart!
The Dharma Idol of Arrogance roared at the heavens; wherever the sound waves passed, all things went mad!
The Dharma Idol of Lust danced lightly as pink mist diffused, giving rise to charming illusions!
The Dharma Idol of Emptiness was the most bizarre, turning into a patch of nothingness; wherever it passed, everything "disappeared"!
The six Dharma Idols, representing six extreme desires, attacked simultaneously, crashing into the five taiji diagrams!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of earth-shattering explosions rang out as the taiji diagrams and the six Dharma Idols collided frantically in the Void Realm!
Each collision triggered a miniature storm of Laws, tearing the surrounding Void Realm into fragmented pieces!
Yun Chenzi's expression was grave as his hands continuously changed seals. Under his control, the taiji diagrams acted like five flexible giant hands, constantly shifting positions in an attempt to divide and surround the six Dharma Idols!
Jiang Wunian also pushed himself to the limit. Driven by his will, the six Dharma Idols were like six frenzied venomous snakes, desperately biting and tearing at the taiji diagrams!
Both were competing in their comprehension of Laws, the subtlety of their Divine Abilities, and the toughness of their will!
This battle lasted from afternoon until dusk.
From dusk until late into the night.
And from deep night until dawn.
They fought through the clouds, cracked the earth, and shattered the Void Realm!
Within a radius of several hundred miles, several originally majestic mountain peaks had been leveled to the ground.
Even the Lancang River, which was once abundant with water, had been completely evaporated!
Zhuge Xuanji, who was watching the battle from the shadows, had retreated a thousand miles away, not daring to approach even a step closer.
"Crazy... they've all gone crazy..."
He muttered to himself, his eyes filled with terror as he gazed at the two god-and-demon-like figures in the distance.
A battle of this level had completely exceeded his understanding of Golden Core Cultivator.
It was no longer an ordinary duel of techniques, but a head-on collision of two Laws, a Life and Death confrontation between two paths of the Dao!
In the center of the battlefield.
Yun Chenzi and Jiang Wunian separated once more.
The auras of both men were no longer as composed as they had been at the start.
Yun Chenzi's Daoist robes were stained with spots of blood.
On his left shoulder was a deep wound that exposed the bone—the mark of being struck by the blood-blade of the Dharma Idol of Slaughter.
At the wound, rainbow light flickered faintly; it was Jiang Wunian's Law of Seven Emotions attempting to corrode his Physical Body.
But he seemed completely oblivious to it.
His eyes remained as calm as water, as if the wound did not even exist.
Jiang Wunian's condition was not much better.
On his right ribs, there was a wound bitten by the Yin-Yang fish. The wound showed an eerie black and white color and was continuously corroding his flesh and blood.
A trail of blood also hung from the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating he had suffered significant internal injuries.
However, the look of madness in his eyes only grew more intense.
"Yun Chenzi, you are indeed strong."
He grinned, revealing teeth stained with blood.
"But do you think you can win against me like this?"
Yun Chenzi did not answer, merely looking at him quietly.
Jiang Wunian's laughter grew louder and louder, finally turning into a fit of manic laughter.
"Hahaha... Yun Chenzi, do you know why my Six Desires Demonic Sect can become a Grotto-Heaven overseen by a True Monarch?"
He flung his arms open, and the rainbow mist around him surged violently!
The mist was no longer the gentle, dawn-like presence it was before; it became violent and chaotic!
Wherever the mist passed, the Void Realm distorted violently, as if it could not withstand the terrifying power contained within!
"Because what we cultivate has never been the Immortal Dao!"
His eyes flew wide, and rainbow light flashed frantically within them!
"You think your Perfection Dao Heart can block my Law of Seven Emotions and allow you to do as you please?"
Jiang Wunian sneered, his tone full of mockery.
"Then... you've thought too much of yourself!"
Before his voice had even faded, Jiang Wunian took a sudden step forward, and his aura surged explosively!
The rainbow mist filling the sky boiled like water, finally turning into waves of invisible fluctuations that surged frantically toward Yun Chenzi!
