Too much fruit

Chapter 1064: The Promotion Ceremony Beginning Years Ago
After a few breaths, Jiang Li had basically recovered by relying on his breathing to restore air and blood.

Using Tai Shi's body to manifest the form of Pangu and accommodating the sun as the left eye, the method of exerting magical powers, although it consumes a lot of energy, is not a big problem for Jiang Li.

This kind of consumption is much smaller than the cost of the Qingping Sword.

Just from the previous battle in Paradise, the amount of life that Jiang Li lost was enough to replace sixty emperors in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"They retreated."

A black shadow flashed and appeared, and the body of the Tathagata became real. He waved the rosary in his hand, and a barrier was automatically formed around him. "The Way of Cosmic Light is indeed a rare and wonderful way in the world. It can advance and retreat. These two are proficient in this way. They can be said to be extremely difficult to deal with."

The Great Venerable can turn back time and create incarnations. Even if you cut off his head, you may not be able to save his life.

The Queen Mother of the West even used a mirror to project the Milky Way, drawing the vast energy of the stars here. If Jiang Li hadn't forcibly broken the projection of the Milky Way, the other party might have been able to gain the upper hand at this time.

After the Queen Mother of the West's strength recovered by more than half, her advantage in Taoism began to expand, and now she was able to use it to fight against Jiang Li's power.

These second-rank powerful beings do not need to demonstrate the Dao Fruit at all. Their Dao Fruit is their own and is perfect in itself.

On the other hand, regaining strength is much easier than improving it.

Jiang Li is using his own progress to fight against the enemy's recovery.

but······
"If I use the Qingping Sword or Pangu Banner to break the Tianhe projection, it won't be too difficult," Jiang Li said as he looked at the barrier that appeared. "Is this what you want to talk about, sir?"

Ye Tathagata had seen the power of the Qingping Sword with his own eyes. Although he didn't know how powerful this weapon was, at least it would not be stopped by the Tianhe projection.

Moreover, Karma Tathagata himself already possesses a first-grade Taoist weapon. Although it is incomplete and only of the third grade, and has not yet been further practiced, it can still be used for auxiliary purposes.

As a result, seeing that Jiang Li was willing to reveal a trump card rather than use the Qingping Sword, Ye Tathagata simply hid the third-grade lotus platform temporarily.

The reason for this is that Ye Tathagata knew that Jiang Li was definitely not a person who would spare no expense. If he really wanted to kill him, he would definitely use the Qingping Sword at the first moment, or even send the Pangu Banner.

Of course, Dazun and Queen Mother of the West are not without trump cards.

For example, the Queen Nuwa's Taoist artifact. Although the Demon Refining Pot has appeared, the Demon Refining Pot alone is not enough to represent the complete Queen Nuwa's Taoist fruit.

The Great Master had taken out the Whip of Creation before, who knows what else he has hidden in his hand.

Although according to Jiang Li's experience, the use of first-grade Taoist tools requires a huge price, the Great Venerable, who was a male member of the Feng clan, who transformed from a human, Feng Hou, to a demon god, Zhu Jiuyin, would most likely not be able to use the Queen Nuwa Taoist tool, but there is always a chance of something happening.

In short, it is not easy to kill the enemy.

"Although I am confident that I can win..."

As this thought flashed through Jiang Li's mind, he continued, "Before heading to the void, I did have the idea of ​​sweeping the caves with thunder and destroying all enemies as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, during this time, I learned of a huge variable."

It is precisely because of this idea that Jiang Li and Ye Tathagata would raid the vast desert together. If he had not known about the Fuxi Daoguo promotion ceremony halfway, he would still be conducting a blitzkrieg and must kill the powerful enemy before Tathagata returns.

At the very least, it will inflict severe damage.

With his growing strength and a first-grade Taoist weapon, this is not impossible.

such a pity······

"Start with yourself, create a civilization or power, and occupy the mainstream of heaven and earth."

Jiang Li said slowly: "Just like the human race defeated all things and became the protagonist of heaven and earth, if you want to be promoted to Fuxi Dao Fruit, you must make your own inheritance become the mainstream of heaven and earth. This is the promotion ceremony of Fuxi Dao Fruit."

“Starting with oneself?” Ye Tathagata’s expression slightly changed, “No wonder…”

It is actually quite simple to become the mainstream of heaven and earth, because the human race is now the mainstream of heaven and earth, and all practitioners are human.

The hard part is starting with yourself.

The founders of the human race were Fuxi and Nuwa. Apart from them, Yan Emperor and Huang Emperor were somewhat inferior.

The human race has become the protagonist, and in order to complete the promotion ceremony, another protagonist is needed.

The protagonist is not necessarily a race, it can also be in other forms, such as a dynasty.

——The Great Zhou Dynasty was established by the reincarnation of the Great Celestial Lord.

The human race is the mainstream of heaven and earth, so let the Great Zhou Dynasty become the mainstream of the human race, and become the only protagonist by unifying the human race and ruling heaven and earth.

"The confused ones are still wondering why the great Celestial Lord established the Great Zhou and laid down the ancestral laws for the common people of the world. It turns out it was for this reason." Ye Tathagata said with sudden realization.

When the identity of Great Zhou Taizu as the reincarnation of Great Celestial Lord was revealed, the rule that Ji and Jiang shared the world seemed somewhat contradictory to reality.

With the means of the Great Heavenly Venerable, is it possible that he cannot suppress the Jiang family?
He could have easily allowed the Ji family to dominate, but instead he left a huge hidden danger for his descendants.

The reason is that the Great Heavenly Venerable does not care who sits on the throne. He only cares whether the Great Zhou exists and whether it still rules the Nine Provinces.

Even more, we must allow the Great Zhou to continue to grow and remain at its peak.

Leaving this rule behind can allow the Ji family and the Jiang family to continue to compete and not fall into the situation of dying in comfort. At the same time, there is the heaven as a backup. The emperors of all generations must accept the will of the heaven and exchange the heart of heaven for the heart of the people, so that the Great Zhou can continue to move forward.

Until the right time comes, until the Great Celestial Master controls the heavens and reappears in the world.

By then, relying on his great power and means as the Jade Emperor, is there any fear that he cannot make the Great Zhou great again and rule the world?
"This is a promotion ceremony that started eight hundred years ago," Jiang Li raised his hand to the sky, as if to capture the existence of the sky from the towering sky. "As long as the Great Celestial Venerable is resurrected and takes back his own Dao Fruit, he will be a perfect second-grade cultivator. He just needs to follow the steps, restore his full strength, and complete the promotion ceremony. He is not like us, and he still needs to perform Dao Fruit."

"The Great Celestial Venerable is indeed far-sighted," Ye Tathagata nodded, then suddenly laughed, "It's a pity that his plan still has variables."

The ceremony of promotion to the first rank is, of course, very difficult, so difficult that one must rule the world and defeat all those who disobey. One does not need to destroy all enemies, but at least one must take the world into one's hands.

But in today's evil world of the five turbidities, under the plan of the Great Heavenly Venerable, things have become relatively simple.

He had already planned everything eight hundred years ago, and was just waiting for the time to come for the Dragon King Taizu to return.

However, eight hundred years later, the anomaly Jiang Li appeared.

Not to mention that he replaced the Ji family with the Jiang family, he also made rapid progress all the way, so that even the reincarnated Great Heavenly Venerable could not defeat him, and even let the Jade Emperor's Dao Fruit fall into Jiang Li's hands for a time.

The returning Great Celestial Lord did not sweep across the universe, but instead almost got himself swept away.

This is not all. If it were just this, the Grand Celestial Venerable's promotion ceremony would still be feasible. The stronger the Great Zhou under Jiang Li's rule becomes, the more conducive it will be to the Grand Celestial Venerable's promotion ceremony.

It doesn’t matter under who leads the country to become the mainstream; what matters is that the Great Zhou becomes the mainstream of the world.

In a sense, Jiang Li was working for the Great Celestial Lord. However——

Ye Tathagata is sharp-minded and a fighter among the old six. How could he not understand the dilemma that the Great Heavenly Venerable is facing now?

"Jiang Tanyue's progress is too fast." He looked at Jiang Li, feeling inexplicably moved.

The growth of the Great Zhou also brought about a surge in Jiang Li's strength, and Jiang Li's own Taoism was also improving. He also obtained two first-grade Taoist artifacts and even helped Tathagata obtain the Taoist fruit of Amitabha Buddha.

Even if the progress of the promotion ceremony increases rapidly, the Great Celestial Venerable will not be considered successful as long as he does not carry the Fuxi Dao Fruit.

Don't wait until later, when the Great Celestial Lord's promotion ceremony is about to be completed, only to be caught by Jiang Li and beheaded before his promotion.

It is possible.

Once Jiang Li rules the world, his power will expand to an unprecedented level, and [Emperor's Power] and [Pangu's Left Eye] are magical powers that can create miracles with great strength. In addition, Jiang Li also possesses [The First Ancestor of Humanity], which can sublimate all magical powers to the second level.

This incredible speed of improvement is the biggest hidden danger of the Great Heavenly Venerable's plan.

"The Great Celestial Lord could have taken my enemies by surprise and helped me achieve the final victory, but my current strength has caused him to worry."

Jiang Li chuckled and said, "So, he opened up the void and wanted to lead the Tathagata Buddha back early to be my enemy. The final result is that both I and the enemy will be defeated, so this way I can kill two birds with one stone."

Being a drag is the traditional virtue of the Sixth Brother. Once he finds out that the Great Celestial Lord is going to be promoted to the first rank, not to mention Jiang Li, the Queen Mother of the West and the Great Celestial Lord, as well as the two Tathagatas of Buddhism, will definitely not tolerate the Great Celestial Lord.

They join forces because they have a common enemy.

And the great celestial master who is about to be promoted and succeed will become the new common enemy.

This history is like a cycle. Previously, the third-grade warriors wanted to join forces to advance to the second-grade. Now, the second-grade warriors are joining forces to try to advance to the first-grade.

Of course, the most important key is that Jiang Li is progressing too fast and may very likely become the biggest stumbling block for the Great Heavenly Venerable.

However, this alone is not enough to explain Jiang Li's actions.

Because the Great Heavenly Venerable will find that Jiang Li's progress is too fast, not because he is sharp enough, but because Jiang Li exposes himself actively.

The cause and effect relationship must be made clear. Jiang Li was exposed first, and then the Great Heavenly Venerable changed his mind.

If Jiang Li did not reveal the form of Pangu, then what awaited the enemy would be a stab in the back from the Great Heavenly Venerable, and then Jiang Li would deal with the Great Heavenly Venerable.

The current difficulties were caused by Jiang Li himself.

"Emperor Xi."

Jiang Li uttered two words in a concentrated voice, saying: "The fall of the Great Celestial Venerable is not the end. He tried to use the Fuxi Dao Fruit to advance to the first rank, so he naturally had to bear the risk of being attacked by the Fuxi Dao Fruit. If the Great Celestial Venerable falls, then the Emperor Xi will definitely return."

If you ask Jiang Li why he is so sure, it is naturally because the promotion ceremony of Fuxi Daoguo was told to Jiang Li by the ancestor Yan Emperor.

At such a delicate moment, Jiang Li learned about the promotion ceremony and gained insight into the Great Celestial Master's plan, which made it difficult for Jiang Li not to think too much.

Don't wait until the end, defeat the Great Heavenly Venerable without hesitation. In a blink of an eye, Emperor Xi was resurrected.

The Three Emperors are worthy of respect, but Jiang Li will not rely on the kindness of others for his safety, not even the Three Emperors.

But no matter what, the Great Celestial Venerable must be defeated. The promotion of the Great Celestial Venerable to the first rank is much more serious than the return of the Emperor Xi. No matter how vigilant the Emperor Xi is, he is still the Emperor Xi, and the Great Celestial Venerable is a pure conspirator.

The credibility gap between the two is even greater than the credibility gap between Jiang Li and Tianjun.

Because Emperor Jiang himself was not a good person, and in terms of character, he was far inferior to Emperor Xi. As for the Great Heavenly Lord and the Heavenly Monarch, the two could be said to be of the same lineage.

So it became a matter of either letting the Great Heavenly Venerable be promoted to the first rank, or letting Emperor Xi return, or...
'It is to delay the occurrence of these two results until I am promoted to the first rank, or my strength level is improved to the point where I can lock onto the Great Celestial Lord in advance and kill him.'

Jiang Li's mind was dim, and his left eye almost turned into a real sun.

Emperor Xi can return, but he must return under the condition that Jiang Li can take control of the situation.

······
······
When the dust settled in the East China Sea War, the Ten Suns' Radiance lost its control and gained the ability to illuminate all directions, beginning to spread in all directions.

On the island in the Yellow Sea, the Great Incarnation did not hesitate to gather the torrent of time, reverse the cosmic light, and pull the Fairy Queen, Tianmei, Xuanwu and others, as well as a group of subordinates, to retreat.

"retreat!"

His voice traveled far into the ears of the third-grade masters, allowing them to be sucked in by the torrent of time.

In an instant, the chaotic sea area began to return to normal. Gongsun Qingyue, the eldest princess and others had no time to stop them, and saw that the other party had been swept away thousands of miles by the invisible torrent of time.

Even the incarnation of the Great Venerable who was three thousand miles away disappeared in the torrent.

Compared with the previous attack, the retreat at this moment was even faster, and even the third-grade master found it difficult to pursue.

In just a few breaths, the torrent had traveled nearly ten thousand miles and was far away from the coast.

At this moment, a lofty energy came like a huge rock, smashing into the torrent and transforming into an invisible giant hand to grab it.

The pupils of Tianmei's eyes were stretched into a line within the torrent, sensing the imminent danger that could drown him. Without hesitation, he screamed sharply, and his white palms opened like a peacock spreading its tail, with the pupils in his palms looking in all directions.

However, her response was almost ineffective. The invisible hand pressed down in the air, causing the huge blood pupil in the center to appear, and an ancient bronze pot appeared in the pupil.

A powerful force fell on the bronze pot, forcing it to shake. A stream of righteousness took the opportunity to fly out of it and fell into an invisible giant hand.

Then, the storm subsided, and the big hand disappeared out of thin air with a majestic aura.

"Mo Yiling!"

Tian Mei was still in shock, so she shouted, "The Imperial Academy's chief priest has been taken away."

She turned and looked at the Great Avatar.

"It doesn't matter."

The incarnation of the Great Venerable, however, remained calm and showed no intention of taking action, as if he had already noticed the other party's identity.

He just waved his sleeves lightly, and the torrent disappeared beneath the sea.
