Gaze and you will become stronger: starting from Doupo

It was a purple-gold mace, its entire body crafted from purple-gold, inscribed with countless ancient runes, exuding a rich aura of immortality. As Jin Taijun swung it, the purple-gold mace, with a whooshing sound, hurtled towards Jiang Han like a bolt of purple lightning, determined to pierce through the overwhelming ripples of his palm print.

Jiang Han's eyes narrowed, and he stepped forward, unleashing another surge of divine power like a burst dam into the rippled palm print. The palm print instantly became more solid, and its power increased several times over.

"boom!"

The giant, rippling palm collided with the purple-gold mace with a deafening roar that echoed throughout the entire Imperial Pass, even reaching the ears of the alien creatures in the borderlands. Almost instantly upon impact, the purple-gold mace was blasted away by the immense force, tracing a long arc in the air before barely managing to regain its footing.

Gazing at the enormous, patterned fruit that suddenly appeared in the palm of the rippled giant hand, Jin Taijun frowned deeply, a hint of solemnity appearing on her face for the first time. This Purple-Gold Mace was her weapon of enlightenment, accompanying her through countless years. It was sturdy and indestructible, containing a large amount of immortal gold, its quality comparable to a half-step immortal weapon, possessing boundless power. Yet, it had been so easily shattered, filling her with shock.

Above the Jin family's cave, the three supreme beings, Meng Tianzheng, Wang Changsheng, and Zhao Haotian, gazed at the spinning Tremor Fruit, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes. They could sense the terrifying power contained within the fruit—a power capable of shaking the very foundations of heaven and earth, far exceeding their imagination.

"Is this your weapon of enlightenment?" Jin Taijun asked in a deep voice, her brows furrowed, her tone carrying a hint of inquiry.

Jiang Han did not answer Jin Taijun's question, but instead urged the giant ripple palm to continue its suppression forward. The Tremor-Tremor Fruit released a vast spatial tearing force, which was like countless invisible scissors, frantically cutting through the surrounding space, covering the entire sky, and appearing in front of Jin Taijun in an instant.

With a light shout, Jin Taijun no longer hesitated and directly grasped the purple-gold mace with both hands. Countless strange phenomena appeared behind her, including the cries of dragons and phoenixes and the floating of immortal mountains. She charged forward with an indomitable momentum.

However, in the next instant, her pupils contracted sharply, and her face was filled with disbelief.

Beyond the spiraling fruit spinning in the giant, rippling palm, another layer of blue-green light appeared. This was a mysterious power she had never encountered before. Within the light, one could see a phenomenon of thousands worshipping, with countless figures kneeling devoutly in worship. Finally, this power condensed into a terrifying swastika symbol, radiating an aura of invincibility.

Click!
This supreme character was extremely domineering; wherever it passed, all defenses crumbled like paper. In an instant, it severed the purple-gold mace, which was mixed with a large amount of immortal gold. The broken surface was smooth and clean, as if it had been cut by the sharpest divine weapon.

"This...how is this possible!"

Staring at the broken purple-gold mace, Jin Taijun was stunned, momentarily losing her composure. She simply couldn't believe that her most treasured artifact of enlightenment could be destroyed so easily.

"What power this is! It can actually shatter Mother's weapon of enlightenment!"

"Has he really become strong enough to rival Mother?"

Staring at the shattered purple-gold mace on the battlefield, Jin Da and Jin Er were initially stunned. After recovering from their daze, they looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes. They had always thought that their mother's weapon of enlightenment was invincible, but now it had been easily destroyed by Jiang Han, which deepened their fear of him.

Immediately, their eyes hardened, and the two appeared on the battlefield simultaneously, positioned on either side of Jin Taijun, forming a pincer attack. They knew that they could not retreat now, or the Jin family's reputation would be completely ruined.

"kill!"

With a shout, Jin Da unleashed a frenzied rotation of Yin and Yang energies in his abdomen, causing his dantian to emerge and form a mysterious Yin-Yang diagram of life and death. The diagram rapidly enlarged, enveloping his entire being, with countless illusory stars floating around him, emanating a terrifying power of life and death alternation.

At the same time, Jin Er's internal organs glowed, radiating a dazzling divine light. An obscure chanting sound echoed from his mouth, as if all the Buddhas and demons of the heavens were chanting simultaneously, blessing him and causing his aura to surge instantly. His limbs seemed to connect to the entire universe, containing supreme power capable of suppressing the four poles of heaven and earth.

After exchanging glances, the two reached a tacit understanding and, each wielding their Dao-attaining weapons from different directions, charged towards Jiang Han with fierce killing intent.

"Are you in such a hurry to die?"

"Come back to me!"

Jiang Han's mocking voice and Jin Taijun's anxious shouts echoed almost simultaneously throughout the heavens and earth. Jiang Han's voice was full of disdain, while Jin Taijun realized the danger and wanted to stop Jin Da and Jin Er.

Jin Taijun's expression changed drastically, and a strong sense of unease welled up in her heart. But before she could stop Jin Da and Jin Er, Jiang Han had already approached them like a ghost.

Jiang Han swung his fist. The fist looked simple and direct, without any fancy moves, but it contained the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and the power of faith. The two powers intertwined, and were also mixed with various profound laws and principles.

The instant he threw his punch, illusory images of countless stars appeared behind him, as if the entire universe was under his control. As his fist swung, galaxies swirled around him, and it seemed as if the sun, moon, and stars were rolling along with his movements. The sight was terrifying and awe-inspiring.

Bang!
Jiang Han threw the first punch at Jin Er.

In an instant, the chanting that had been swirling around Jin Er, like the chanting of Buddhas and demons, abruptly ceased. His once luminous internal organs twisted and dimmed, as if crushed by an invisible force. With a deafening roar, Jin Er's body exploded amidst the ripples, his form and spirit utterly destroyed, leaving not even a trace of his primordial spirit behind.

Upon seeing this, Jin's pupils constricted sharply, his eyes filled with fear. Alarm bells rang in his mind, and he instinctively tried to withdraw his attack and retreat. However, Jiang Han's palm seemed to possess an irresistible pulling force, like a giant vortex, making it impossible for him to break free. He could only continue forward involuntarily. *Bang!*
With another deafening roar, Jiang Han's second punch landed squarely on Jin Da's abdomen. The life-and-death diagram formed by the intertwining of Yin and Yang energies crumbled like fragile glass under this blow, instantly dissipating into a shower of light. The surrounding stars also exploded simultaneously, countless fragments scattering in all directions, and howling gales swept across the heavens with astonishing power.

Like Jin Er, Jin Da's primordial spirit didn't have time to escape, and didn't even have time to scream before it was completely buried under Jiang Han's fist, dying and disappearing from this world.

From the moment Jin Da and Jin Er made their move to the moment they were killed by Jiang Han with two punches, everything happened in the blink of an eye, so fast that no one could react.

"what--!"

"You killed four of my sons, this is a fight to the death!"

Jin Taijun finally arrived, but it was too late. Staring at the spot where Jin Da and Jin Er had vanished, her eyes instantly filled with bloodshot veins. Suddenly, she seemed to go berserk, letting out a long, mournful roar. The roar was filled with chilling killing intent and boundless grief, like a mother beast that had lost her cubs, sending shivers down one's spine.

Filled with boundless hatred, Jin Taijun unleashed dozens of terrifying attacks in succession. Each attack contained her full power: light blades condensed from immortal laws, black flames brimming with destructive aura, and ice capable of freezing time, all swarming towards Jiang Han. However, these attacks were all neutralized by Jiang Han's defenses, causing him no real harm.

"What? You, a man who has lived for a million years, still feel the pain of losing a child?" Jiang Han stood with his hands behind his back, coldly looking at the seemingly insane Jin Taijun, his voice full of sarcasm. "When you issued the decree to send those underage children of the Stone Clan to the frontier to their deaths, did you ever think about how their parents felt? When you made those children suffer on the battlefield, even die tragically, did you have a single pity in your heart?"

The chilling voice echoed across the battlefield, like an icy blade piercing the hearts of everyone present. It resonated in the minds of everyone in the Imperial Pass, reminding them of the scene of the Stone Clan children being forcibly taken away from the sky, making them even more disgusted with Jin Taijun's actions.

Jin Taijun paused, taken aback by Jiang Han's question. The madness on her face subsided slightly, but was quickly replaced by a deeper rage. She stared intently at Jiang Han, her eyes blazing with fury: "Stop pretending! Those sinful descendants deserve to die. My sons are so noble; how can they be compared to those lowly bastards!"

"Noble? Just because they aided and abetted the wicked and helped you harm the descendants of loyal and virtuous people? Such beings deserve to die!" Jiang Han sneered, his tone full of disdain. "On the contrary, you have lived for millions of years, yet your mind is so vicious. You will stop at nothing to maintain your status and your lies. You are simply unworthy to live in this world!"

"You're courting death!" Jin Taijun was completely enraged by Jiang Han's words. Her divine power surged wildly, and the immortal laws around her became extremely violent. The immortal image above her head also changed. The cranes cried mournfully, the fairies disappeared, and the Pure Land of Bosa turned gray, replaced by an aura of destruction.

Her hands moved swiftly, forming hand seals. Countless complex runes flashed in her palms, finally converging into a massive golden pillar of light. This pillar contained the essence of her life's cultivation, carrying an aura of scorching heaven and boiling seas, as it shot towards Jiang Han. Wherever it passed, space was scorched and distorted, emitting a pungent, acrid smell.

Jiang Han's expression turned serious; he dared not be careless in the slightest. He took a deep breath, and the Tremor-Tremor Fruit behind him spun even faster, emitting an even more terrifying power. At the same time, the power of faith surged forth once more, merging with the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit to form a solid defensive barrier.

"boom!"

The golden beam of light collided with the defensive barrier, unleashing an even more violent explosion. A powerful shockwave spread outwards, shaking the entire Imperial Pass. The space around the battlefield cracked like shattered glass, appearing as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

Upon seeing this, the three supreme beings, Meng Tianzheng, Wang Changsheng, and Zhao Haotian, immediately took action, joining forces to set up a massive barrier that enveloped the battlefield, preventing the aftershocks of the battle from affecting the billions of lives at the Imperial Pass. Even so, the barrier trembled slightly under the intense impact, clearly bearing immense pressure.

The cultivators inside the Imperial Pass City watched the battlefield unfold with bated breath through the barrier. They saw Jiang Han's defensive barrier flickering under the impact of the golden pillar of light, seemingly on the verge of shattering at any moment, while Jin Taijun, his face contorted with rage, continuously increased the output of his divine power.

"Can Ancestor Hongjun withstand it?" a cultivator couldn't help but ask with concern.

"It's hard to say. After all, Jin Taijun is a supreme being who has lived for millions of years. Her strength is unfathomable. This attack has probably already used her trump card." Another person shook his head, his tone full of uncertainty.

On the battlefield, Jiang Han felt immense pressure; fine cracks had already appeared on his defensive barriers. His eyes narrowed, and he unleashed his divine power without reservation. The Tremor-Tremor Fruit spun to its limit, emitting a buzzing roar.

"Break!" Jiang Han shouted, and the defensive barrier suddenly burst forth with a dazzling light. An even more terrifying power surged out from it, actually shattering the golden pillar of light.

The golden pillar of light shattered, transforming into countless golden specks that scattered like shooting stars. Jin Taijun was forced back by the recoil, a trickle of blood escaping from the corner of her mouth, her face turning pale. She looked at Jiang Han with a complex expression, her heart filled with shock and disbelief; she hadn't expected Jiang Han's strength to be so formidable.

"It seems that I have no choice but to get serious." Jin Taijun wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, a resolute glint in her eyes. She clasped her hands together, chanting incantations, and an ancient and powerful aura began to emanate from her body. Countless phantoms appeared around her, each a reflection of her past self, from youth to old age, and back to her current girlish appearance, as if reliving her life.

"This is Jin Taijun's innate divine power, 'Reincarnation of Time,' which is said to be able to mobilize the power of time and has boundless power. Once it is used, even a supreme being would find it difficult to resist!" A knowledgeable cultivator exclaimed, a look of fear on his face.

Jiang Han felt the power emanating from the passage of time, and his heart tightened. He knew that this battle had reached a critical moment, and victory or defeat depended on this one move. He held nothing back, completely fusing the Tremor-Tremor Fruit with the power of faith, transforming himself into a dazzling ball of light, charging towards Jin Taijun with unstoppable momentum.

"kill!"

The two clashed once more, this time more intense than ever before. The power of time intertwined and collided with the power of tremors and faith, generating even more terrifying energy fluctuations. The entire battlefield was shrouded in chaos, obscuring the specific situation within; only the continuous roars and sounds of colliding energy could be heard. (End of Chapter)
