Chapter 1806 Chaos Begins
Jun Wushuang's Dao power was extremely surging, and his attacks were also extremely violent, fierce, and powerful.

Although he did not use any innate spiritual treasures, the power he displayed was by no means weak.

The surrounding void was shattered, turning into chaos, and the universe was recreated.

Li Yanchu was far inferior to him.

However, he was experienced in combat and was able to deflect Jun Wushuang's attacks, and the chaotic Dao Qi around him became increasingly dense.

In a short while, Li Yanchu felt an extremely terrifying pressure.

If he relaxed even slightly, Jun Wushuang would probably be able to kill him.

This Jun Wushuang is truly terrifying. He couldn't help but regret his earlier agreement of ten moves; he had been far too arrogant.

Jun Wushuang is now unleashing his full power, and his strength is astonishing. It would be difficult to defeat him even if it took more than ten moves, let alone hundreds.

Li Yanchu activated the Divine Blade of Slaying the Dao, its blade shimmering, forcing Jun Wushuang back.

Jun Wushuang said calmly, "The eighth move!"

He raised his hands upwards, as if a giant were supporting the heavens and the earth.

In an instant, a terrifying pressure surged forth and pressed down.

The Dao power within Li Yanchu's body began to become disordered, and the killing Dao Qi and the calamity Dao Qi began to surge violently.

Jun Wushuang's move instantly increased the pressure on him, and he truly felt the threat of death.

However, at this moment, Li Yanchu stood in the void, sensing the dense chaotic Dao Qi around him.
Seeing Jun Wushuang's imposing move that opened up the chaos and evolved the universe, Li Yanchu's heart suddenly stirred, as if a lightning bolt had cleaved through the fog in his mind.

In the beginning of chaos, before heaven and earth were separated, this move precisely captures the essence of that time.

Li Yanchu suddenly let out a long roar, dispelling the supernatural power.

Jun Wushuang's expression changed.

His move is called the Eight Methods of Opening Heaven, which is extremely powerful and can create the universe.

With his immense Dao power driving this move, even if Li Yanchu possessed a primordial spiritual treasure, its power would not match his.

However, after Jun Wushuang unleashed this move, he was somewhat surprised that it did not actually harm Li Yanchu.

The next moment, Li Yanchu attacked with the same move, raising both hands upwards.

"The Eight Methods of Creation!"

Jun Wushuang's pupils contracted, and in a moment he realized that Li Yanchu was not just a pretty face.

Li Yanchu's move was exactly the same as his, except for the different Dao power he used; the Dao patterns were also identical.

Jun Wushuang was shocked: "Impossible! How could he know the Eight Methods of Creation!"

Jun Wushuang's heart was filled with turbulent waves.

Li Yanchu's move was exactly the same as his, and the operational route of the technique, the Dao patterns used, and even some parts were more mature than his.

If Li Yanchu had known this move before, he definitely could have withstood my supernatural power.
But he was clearly injured earlier...

"In other words, he learned my moves in a very short time!"

Jun Wushuang was greatly surprised when this thought came to mind.

He was a person of extraordinary talent, and over the years, there was only one person he admired: Jing Qing.

Master Jingqing is extremely talented and learns many Taoist techniques very quickly. He also often explains them to his fellow Taoists.

He had received guidance from Jing Qing back then, so when Jing Qing was resurrected, he treated Jing Qing with great courtesy.

However, even Jing Qing back then did not possess such terrifying comprehension as Li Yanchu.

While he was in a daze, he tried his best to defend himself, but Li Yanchu's supernatural power had already arrived.

The chaotic Dao Qi surged immensely. This time, he didn't use any innate spiritual treasures, but launched a fierce attack on Jun Wushuang.

Click!
Jun Wushuang was struck in the waist and abdomen by Li Yanchu's hands.

The chaotic power erupted, posing an extreme danger.

Jun Wushuang was instantly sent flying, his sternum caved in, and a moment later he turned into chaotic energy.

The two wisps of chaotic energy continuously dissolved his Great Dao.

Jun Wushuang was shocked and immediately used his supernatural powers to stabilize his own Dao, preventing it from being affected by external forces.

After a moment, Jun Wushuang slowly sighed.

"The ten-move agreement has been reached; I have lost."

Jun Wushuang was somewhat disheartened and disillusioned at this moment.

His prized Eightfold Path of Creation technique was learned by Li Yanchu in a single move.
He even injured himself; this person's talent is truly astonishing.

"No wonder Daoist Tianyang said he could lead us to break the current deadlock."

Li Yanchu said, "Fellow Daoist's strength is astonishing. I am only slightly better than you, and if we continue fighting, the outcome is uncertain."

Jun Wushuang shook his head and said, "Losing is losing. You injured me with my supernatural powers. I am not as skilled as you, so there is nothing to say."

Li Yanchu said with a faint smile, "Fellow Daoist, you admit defeat readily and don't renege on your promise. However, does our previous agreement still stand?"

Jun Wushuang said in a deep voice, "Of course it counts. Since I have agreed to the ten-move agreement, I will follow you and form an alliance with you. I will not go back on my word."

On the other side, Daoist Tianyang and Daoist Guo were also greatly surprised.

They were highly skilled and experienced, and they could tell that Li Yanchu had injured him with Jun Wushuang's supernatural powers.

The two men's eyes were filled with horror.

The Heavenly Sun Dao Master was the first to recover. He smiled and said, "This is truly a cause for celebration. With Brother Li here, we can finally join forces and work together towards a common goal. What are the Three Great Dao Masters, Jing Qing, or the Great Heavenly Venerable compared to them?"

He seemed very happy, partly due to flattery of Li Yanchu, and partly genuinely so.

Whether it's Jing Qing, the three Dao Masters, or the Great Celestial Venerable, they all pose a formidable threat to them. If they are not careful, they will suffer a terrible fate.

They are all fighting alone and can't amount to much, but if they were to unite, none of them would be able to command respect.

They had only briefly joined forces before going their separate ways.

Now that Li Yanchu has appeared, the problem has indeed been solved, and the Heavenly Sun Dao Master is very happy, revealing his true feelings.

Guo Daozhu said, "Killing the three Dao Lords, overthrowing the current corrupt rule of the foreign land, and creating a new situation is indeed exciting to think about."

Guo Huchan couldn't suppress this thought either. Back then, they had been vying for power and influence, deceiving and scheming, all in an attempt to ascend to the throne of the highest ruler of this foreign land.

However, what was unexpected was that three unknown guys ended up in power.

There are many people stronger than them, but now they have all perished, either killed or collected as provisions, which is truly heartbreaking.

As time passed, these old guys were killed one by one, as if they were watching a magnificent war unfold, only to become cannon fodder themselves.

This feeling of disappointment is very difficult to accept.

Now that Li Yanchu possesses unparalleled talent for cultivation and extraordinary skill, he was able to defeat the three of them in succession, and within ten moves no less. With him leading them, they truly felt that there was much they could achieve.

In truth, Guo Huchan, this tyrannical madman, was far more sincere than the Tianyang Daoist, who was urging others to form alliances and forge unions.

Having subdued these three ancient Dao Lords, Li Yanchu was overjoyed.

Although cooperating with these three is like dealing with a tiger for its skin, Li Yanchu is fairly confident that there won't be any problems in the short term.

Li Yanchu not only comprehended the mysteries of the Chaos Dao by using Jun Wushuang's Eight Methods of Creation, but also broke through to the Chaos Dao Master level in one fell swoop.

His cultivation of the Great Dao was so strong that his Dao power surged, which allowed him to defeat Jun Wushuang in an instant using the newly learned Eight Methods of Creation.

Jun Wushuang was indeed wronged. Even if Li Yanchu used any kind of supernatural power, even if he cultivated to the level of the Chaos Dao Master, Jun Wushuang would not necessarily be at a disadvantage, let alone be defeated within ten moves.

Unfortunately, Li Yanchu used Jun Wushuang's supernatural abilities to fight him, but his skills were even more refined, which greatly alarmed Jun Wushuang and caused a flaw in his technique. It was at this moment that he was injured by Li Yanchu.

Li Yanchu and his group arrived at a secluded place, Baixiang City, where all four of them settled down.

The Heavenly Sun Dao Master said, "The three Dao Masters are currently very busy and in a mess. It's fine for us to stay here for a short time, but it won't be very convenient in the long run."

Li Yanchu asked, "What suggestions do you have, fellow Daoist?"

The Heavenly Sun Dao Master is a native of this region, so he is naturally familiar with many places.

Daoist Tianyang smiled slightly and cupped his hands to Li Yanchu, saying, "Brother Daoist, since you have resolved the killing Daoist Qi on my body, I should naturally give back. Please wait here for a moment, I will be right back."

After they arrived in this big city, Li Yanchu used his great supernatural powers to dissolve the remaining killing energy in his body. The Heavenly Sun Dao Master grew an arm again and found Li Yanchu increasingly pleasing to the eye.

At this moment, the Heavenly Sun Dao Master left in a hurry, but Li Yanchu did not understand his meaning.

However, they have just formed an alliance, and it is unlikely that the Lord of Tianyang Dao would do anything foolish to ruin the hard-won situation.

The three of them stayed in Passion City.

Jun Wushuang was still somewhat shocked and asked curiously, "Just now I sensed the fluctuations of the Three Proofs of the Great Dao. Did you break through to the Three Proofs of the Chaos Dao Master in that instant?"

Li Yanchu didn't hide anything. The aura of a Dao Lord was extremely powerful and difficult to conceal. There was no need to hide it here; displaying his strength would be better for leading the team.

Li Yanchu said calmly, "Indeed, it's all thanks to your supernatural power, fellow Daoist. May I ask what this supernatural power is called?"

Jun Wushuang sighed and said, "You are truly a peerless genius I have never seen before. You have broken through to the Chaos Dao Lord level without me even realizing it."

After a moment, he said, "My method is called the Eight Methods of Opening Heaven, which means to open up the universe in the chaos. Although it is called eight methods, it is actually only one move, but it is infinitely variable, with at least tens of thousands of variations. I didn't expect you to learn it in one move, and some parts are even more exquisite than mine. How did you do it?"

As Jun Wushuang spoke, he also became somewhat curious, and he looked intently at Li Yanchu.
Guo Huchan also looked at Li Yanchu, clearly very curious about this as well.

Li Yanchu said, "Recently, I have been comprehending the Great Dao of Chaos and have made some breakthroughs. When I saw your supernatural power, I understood its mysteries and then learned it."

"..." Jun Wushuang and Guo Huchan fell silent, remaining silent for a long time without uttering a single word.

Such talent is terrifying; the two of them shook their heads in unison.

Jun Wushuang sighed, "If we can overthrow the three Dao Lords and wipe out everything in the foreign lands, then it would be quite appropriate for you, Dao Brother, to sit at the highest position of the Great Heavenly Venerable."

At this moment, the Heavenly Sun Dao Master was not present, and Guo Huchan, this barbarian, did not speak rudely. He sincerely said, "That's right. I've always thought what Jun Wushuang said was nonsense, but this sentence does make some sense."

Jun Wushuang raised an eyebrow and looked at Guo Huzhan, who glared back at him without flinching, the two locked in a fierce confrontation.

Although these foreign Daoist lords chose to submit to Li Yanchu, form an alliance with him, and recognize him as their leader, they still refused to submit to each other, and there were still some old grievances between them.

The two were now locked in a tense standoff, with Guo Huchan coldly saying, "What are you looking at?"

Jun Wushuang snorted coldly, his gaze icy, as if he were about to start a fight right there at the slightest provocation.

Li Yanchu said calmly, "We'll stay here temporarily and wait for Fellow Daoist Tianyang to return. We can't fight among our own people."

Strangely enough, these two ancient Dao Lords, who were arrogant, haughty, and indifferent, actually stopped fighting at the same time.

If he had only admired Li Yanchu because of the bet, he wouldn't be so polite.

Li Yanchu's talent was truly astonishing. These people had witnessed the flourishing of Taoism, but they had never seen anyone as brilliant as Li Yanchu.

Given time, Li Yanchu's achievements will likely be immeasurable.

Even now, Li Yanchu has the strength to surpass them.

The foreign lands highly value martial prowess, and the practice of scalping has existed since ancient times. They still greatly respect the strong.

Although Li Yanchu's cultivation level was not high enough to suppress all the heroes, it was enough to make them submit.

Seeing the two stop fighting, Li Yanchu nodded slightly. He was content to persuade the two foreign Dao Lords for the time being; he couldn't ask for too much, such as resolving the conflict between them.

Each of these people was a hero of their time, a protagonist of their era. If they hadn't missed this 130 million years, they would be the three Great Dao Masters today.

Soon, the Heavenly Sun Dao Master returned, bearing several new injuries and looking quite disheveled.

Li Yanchu asked, "Where exactly did Fellow Daoist Tianyang go?"

The Heavenly Sun Dao Master smiled slightly, and a cave appeared behind him, connecting to the vast universe. But the next moment, the entrance to the cave opened and grew larger and larger. Soon, a sacred place for cultivation emerged from it.

This sacred place is a cliff, below which lies a complex of palaces, grand in scale and with a very sacred architectural style.

Li Yan was quite surprised when he saw this.

"Dragon and Phoenix Cliff Daosheng Palace!"

It was his former Daoist temple in the Great Luo Heaven, which he had once used as the Daoist Lord of Slaughter, but the Daoist Lord of Heavenly Sun actually took it down.

Li Yanchu asked, "You just went to the Great Luo Heaven?"

The Heavenly Sun Dao Master nodded slightly: "Not bad."

Li Yanchu asked in surprise, "The Great Luo Heaven is a unified whole. How did you manage to cut off the Daosheng Palace of Dragon and Phoenix Cliff?"

The Heavenly Sun Dao Master said somewhat embarrassedly, "When I was young, I liked to explore the dwellings of ancient people and quiet places, so I haven't given up these skills yet. If I had more time, I could cut down the dwellings of those three as well."

Li Yanchu was greatly surprised, but then he realized what he meant: "You mean digging up graves?"

Master Tianyang nodded and said, "Not bad."
