Too much fruit

Chapter 1016: From Spring to Summer, Jiang Li's Promotion

A strange misunderstanding thus arises and will last for quite some time.

At least... before Jiang Li was promoted to the second rank.

As for now——

Jiang Li put his left hand behind his back and made an invitation with his right hand, "The Xuanyuan Sword is behind me. Come, let me see the power of the sky."

This is not the Three Pure Heavens, where the power of heaven can be exerted. The strength of the Great Heavenly Venerable is far stronger than before.

But now Jiang Li is stronger than he was in the previous battle. At that time, he had not truly mastered the "One Qi Transformed into Three Purities". He was just at the entry threshold, and he had not yet achieved the Tai Shi Dao.

The most important thing is Pangu Banner.

The Great Celestial Venerable knew that Jiang Li was now very powerful. Although he had not yet been promoted to the second rank, he had undoubtedly kept up with the version. Relying on the Pangu Banner, Jiang Li was not left behind by the strongest person who was promoted to the second rank.

Because the same is true for the Great Celestial Venerable himself.

Even because of the existence of Cang Tian, ​​the Great Heavenly Venerable has more to rely on than Jiang Li.

At this time, facing Jiang Li's invitation to fight, the Great Celestial Venerable did not refuse. He smiled slightly, raised his right hand with the palm facing up, and said, "Please."

As soon as the words fell, the world seemed to lose its color, everything turned black and white, and time seemed to stop at this moment.

Space has lost its meaning. Although the two are far apart, they seem to be right in front of you.

Jiang Li turned his palm and pushed forward. The invisible blow of the elephant was not very powerful, but it carried the momentum of the movement of heaven and earth, naturally and irresistibly. The black and white images seemed to be rejecting the Great Heavenly Venerable and Hanba, and the pressure of the universe fell at this moment.

Here, heaven, earth and man are combined into one, and everything seems quite pale.

The figures of the Great Lord of Heaven and Hanba were crushed in an instant, not even half as powerful as bubbles.

However, in the next moment, these two bubbles reappeared.

The crumbling space was like a broken mirror, constantly being crushed, and new space constantly appeared. Outside the space where the Great Celestial Lord and Hanba were, there were layers of small worlds like nesting dolls, one layer was crushed, and another layer was created.

The attack broke out in an instant, but it seemed that it would never be able to reach the two of them.

"One thought, three thousand worlds."

The Great Celestial Venerable slowly moved his palms, and as his thoughts moved, three thousand things appeared. The universe and the sky appeared layer by layer, while he himself remained motionless.

The shattered space has formed a dark hole, revealing the depth of the void. The space where the Great Heavenly Venerable and Hanba are located is squeezed by the heaven and earth and pushed straight into the void.

"Emperor Jiang, the battle between you and me will be saved until you are promoted to the second rank. I think that day is not far away."

The clear voice passed through the collapsed hole and reached Jiang Li's ears directly, while the figures of the Great Heavenly Venerable and Hanba were getting farther and farther away in the void until they disappeared into the deep darkness.

"What a profound attainment in the universe."

Jiang Li raised his eyebrows, then waved his sleeves gently, "Return."

The broken space seemed to have reversed time and quickly recovered. The black and white world regained color, and even the aftermath of the chaos was eliminated.

In an instant, everything returned to its previous state, but unfortunately, the Great Heavenly Venerable and Hanba were no longer there.

The Great Celestial Venerable's attainment in the Dao of the Universe was even better than that of the Heavenly Sovereign. Even though Jiang Li possessed the Haotian Mirror and had placed it into the divine palace between his eyebrows, he was still unable to lock onto him, let alone keep him.

After all, this mirror has been broken and has not been repaired yet. It looks intact, but in fact it is still in the state of being broken into two.

"However, you don't dare to take action at this time, which means you are not sure," Jiang Li whispered, "Is there any restriction in heaven? Or is it that the Qingping Sword cannot be used at will?"

Jiang Li and Pangu Banner were so compatible, but he still had the price of losing control. If he wasn't careful, he would break the sky and tire himself to death. The Qingping Sword and the Great Heavenly Venerable were definitely not as compatible as Jiang Li and Pangu Banner, and he would never be able to control this sword as he wished.

As for the sky, due to the wisdom of our ancestors, this existence, which should have been a guarantee, was instead used by the Heavenly Lord, leading to the current result. But now that it has become an enemy, we have to sigh at the foresight of our ancestors.

Perhaps, there are limitations on both of them, otherwise the Great Heavenly Venerable would not have withdrawn so easily.

But this time it's just a test, when Jiang Li is promoted...
'He has already predicted that I will be promoted,' Jiang Li thought to himself.

The Great Celestial Lord almost made it clear that he would come to block Jiang Li's way when he was promoted.

I just wonder if the Great Celestial Master will come alone or in a team?
As the thought flashed through his mind, Jiang Li gently pressed his palm on the dragon claw beside him, and the innate qi flowed into Yinglong's body, quickly healing Rain Master's injuries.

In an instant, Yu Shi Yuanjun's injuries had recovered and he transformed back into human form from a dragon.

"Ahem—hum—"

Tian Xuan coughed, signaling the two to pay attention to the situation and stop pulling each other, then looked at the Xuanyuan Sword and said, "I didn't expect that Hanba is really the reincarnation of the Emperor's daughter, and she has set her sights on the Xuanyuan Sword. After today's failure, I'm afraid she will not give up in the future."

As he spoke, Tianxuan gave Jiang Li a look.

She had mentioned before that she wanted to seal the Xuanyuan Sword completely and not let it be exposed. Now that she saw Hanba intending to take the sword, this idea came to her mind again.

Even if Hanba didn't succeed this time, what about the next time? Even if he didn't get the approval of Xuanyuan Sword, he might move the sword peak away. You must know that Xuanyuan Sword was not inserted here at the beginning.

Leave the Xuanyuan Sword here. Next time the enemy comes, we will have to allocate some strength to guard it.

The day when Jiang Li is promoted should not be far away. By the time he is promoted, the enemy will most likely attack again.

So Tianxuan decided to seal it completely.

Just do it...

It's a bit too hurtful to our ancestors.

It can only be said that Jiang’s filial piety is inseparable from Tianxuan’s words and deeds.

Tianxuan herself is a person who does not follow the rules, or rather, she has her own set of rules. Jiang Li just happened to suit her temperament, and so the two of them have come to this day.

The apprentice is filial, and the master is no exception.

It's so filial.

It was because these words were not spoken out loud that the Xuan-Yuan Sword might have rioted.

At least in Jiang Li's opinion, this is something that could happen. Huangdi's Dao fruit is not like Yandi's, which was divided by his unworthy descendants. Moreover, Xuanyuan Sword has been nurtured in the furnace of heaven and earth for hundreds of years. Who knows whether Huangdi's Dao fruit has awakened.

Jiang Li glanced at the Xuanyuan Sword inconspicuously, and when he saw that it was motionless, he said, "This is a serious matter, I think we need to discuss it later. At least, let's go and ask our ancestors first."

This "ancestor" obviously refers to Emperor Yan.

"That's quite true." Tianxuan's eyes lit up and he nodded.

If Yan Emperor thinks it is possible, when Huang Emperor's true spirit awakens, he can also put the blame on Yan Emperor and let Huang Emperor's true spirit settle accounts with Yan Emperor.

All I can say is that when it comes to filial piety, these master and disciple are indeed of the same lineage.

"It can also help me test Emperor Yan's thoughts on the Xuanyuan Sword." Jiang Li's eyes fell on the sword's peak.

Although the old ancestor was very satisfied with him and felt that he had brought honor to the Jiang family, Jiang Li knew that he had not yet completely gained the old ancestor's trust.

Through the advice given by the true spirit of Emperor Yan, Jiang Li may be able to guess what position he holds in Emperor Yan's heart.

"And promotion..."

Jiang Li thought with some regret.

Judging from the current situation, he should be unable to contain the Dao Fruit of Emperor Huang, and can only rely on the cause and effect of defeating Da Zun, Dao Jun and others to abuse them.

However, given the law of cause and effect, your choice may not be a bad one.

"Just show me your limits, Karma Set."

······
······
On a plain in Yangzhou, the space evolved, revealing layers of heavenly realms. Then, light and shadows flashed, and the Great Heavenly Venerable and Hanba emerged from them.

The Great Celestial Venerable dispersed the evolving space and said with regret: "I didn't expect that even you can't master the Xuanyuan Sword. What a pity."

Although Hanba had other intentions when he took the sword this time, he did want Hanba to master the Xuanyuan Sword.

Even if it cannot match the Yellow Emperor's Dao Fruit and is difficult to use for advancement, the Xuanyuan Sword itself is still a powerful weapon.

The enemy defeated by the sword will be suppressed by this sword, and it also has the power to restrain gods, demons, monsters, ghosts and other non-human beings. The more non-human beings die under this sword, the more restrained it becomes. This is the Xuanyuan Sword, a holy weapon dedicated to killing.

It almost perfectly interprets the meaning of the word "conquer". Even if he obtained a first-grade Taoist weapon, the Great Heavenly Venerable still felt that if he could not use the sword for himself, he must not let the enemy use it.

The Great Celestial Venerable sighed softly again, then concealed his expression and said, "This time, I fought with Jiang Li, but I retreated after only one move. He should have guessed that it would be difficult for me to master the Qingping Sword. However, I also discovered something. Jiang Li might have chosen the Dao Fruit of Emperor Yan or the Lord of Arms as the second-grade choice, so he left a restriction on the Xuanyuan Sword so early."

"Hmm?" Hanba, who was angry, showed a surprised look, "In terms of the strength of Dao fruit, my father's Dao fruit should be better. Besides, I don't think that the Emperor of the Jiang family will have any respect for me."

Anyway, after this incident, Hanba has understood the thoughts of these younger generations.

Even Tianxuan and Yu Shi, who are descendants of Xuanyuan, did not have these thoughts, let alone Jiang Li, an outsider.

"Even you can't master the Xuanyuan Sword, so it's even less likely that he will be recognized by the Xuanyuan Sword."

The Great Celestial Venerable shook his head and said, "Moreover, the third grade that Jiang Li accepted should be the Qing Emperor Dao Fruit that I specially separated out at the beginning. It belongs to the virtue of wood, while the Yellow Emperor Dao Fruit belongs to the virtue of earth. Wood overcomes earth. If the third grade and the second grade are accepted together, it cannot be guaranteed to be harmonious. Although Jiang Li has a way to reconcile them, it will eventually leave a period of disharmony."

"In my opinion, he will use wood to create fire and accommodate the Dao fruit of the Lord of Fire. Even the Dao fruit of the Lord of Soldiers may not be suitable for him. His best choice should be the Dao fruit of Emperor Yan, or the Dao fruit of Dong Wanggong that has long fallen into his hands. Of course, if we consider compatibility, it is also related to heaven, and the Dao fruit of the Jade Emperor, who is an emperor, is also a good choice..."

At this point, the Great Celestial Venerable seemed to have something unfinished in his words. After a slight pause, he continued: "The Dao fruit of Emperor Yan belongs to the virtue of fire, while the Eastern King belongs to the virtue of wood and fire. Both of them can be compatible with the Dao fruit of Emperor Qing. Even if there are other choices, they are generally inseparable from the virtue of fire."

This is the most appropriate choice, and as long as Jiang Li still has the determination to reach the top, he will not abandon the virtues of fire and wood and choose other fruits of the Tao.

It’s not that this incompatibility will affect Jiang Li’s climb to the top, but as a person seeking the Tao, he must try his best to erase any flaws.

Moreover, after spring comes summer, which, from the perspective of the evolution of the weather, is also beneficial to the fruits of the Tao that belong to the virtue of fire.

From spring to summer, it is the best time for promotion.

As a master of Yi Dao, Jiang Li would not be unaware of this.

On the other hand, after wood generates fire, fire generates earth, just like the wood virtue of Emperor Xi turned into the fire virtue of Emperor Yan, and then was replaced by the earth virtue of Emperor Huang. Even if Jiang Li did not choose the Dao Fruit of Emperor Yan, Xuanyuan Sword would still be a powerful weapon against Jiang Li.

After a test, Jiang Li learned that it was difficult for the Great Venerable to master a first-grade Taoist weapon. The Great Venerable also learned the information he wanted from it.

Just based on that little discovery, Jiang Li's next move and even the range of Dao Fruit selection were determined. The Great Celestial Venerable's scheming was no less than Jiang Li's.

"When spring turns to summer?" Hanba's eyes showed strange color.

"That will be the latest time," said the Great Celestial Venerable. "After the beginning of spring, it will be the time of the Green Emperor. Jiang Li will reach his peak during this period. Whether it is transforming the clear and turbid, or performing the Dao Fruit, this is the best time. After reaching the peak, he will start to decline from high to low. However, if he is promoted to the Dao Fruit at this time and turns to the Fire Virtue, he will climb up again."

Even if one does not advance to the second-grade Dao Fruit of Fire Virtue, late spring is the best time for advancement.

That was also the time for the decisive battle.

Jiang Li and the Great Heavenly Master cannot coexist.

Not to mention anything else, just the Green Emperor Dao Fruit on Jiang Li's body, the Great Heavenly Venerable must take it back.

'Back then, in order to weaken Fuxi Daoguo, the Qingdi Daoguo was differentiated and integrated with the cause and effect of the emperor before the end of the law. The original intention was to facilitate recycling, but no one thought that one day someone would be able to return the emperor's Daoguo to its original state. Jiang Li...'

The emperor's eyes were like two deep wells, extremely deep and mysterious. 'You must have other secrets.'

At the beginning, the awakened one deduced that Jiang Li had a big secret by observing cause and effect. Now Jiang Li is able to cover up his own abnormality in cause and effect, but some of the secrets about the cause and effect set have still been revealed.

Changing the Dao Fruit, this should not be an ability that Jiang Li can have.

It should be noted that Jiang Li was only at the fourth rank at that time. How could he change the emperor's Dao fruit by his own strength?

"Should we inform those two Buddhists and the great master of Feng family about this news?" Hanba asked at this time.

"No need," said the Great Celestial Venerable, "If they are capable of knowing, they will participate. If they are not aware, they will come after Jiang Li is promoted and serve as the vanguard to test Jiang Li. What position they will play depends on their own abilities."

The implication was that the Great Heavenly Venerable believed that even if there was no one else, he could still deal with Jiang Li.

"Understood,"

Hanba nodded slightly, "Great Celestial Lord."
