Lao Tzu is Ji Gong

Seeing Donghuang Taiyi's arrogant expression, Li Duotian was also furious. He thought to himself, "You really can't praise this guy. Once you do, he'll get all cocky."

Li Duotian knew he couldn't give this guy a friendly look, so he activated several other totems on his Pangu Mansion. He needed to use a violent move to destroy all the surrounding light orbs.

Chapter 1386 The Two Engage in Intense Battle

Donghuang Taiyi was quite satisfied with the move he had unleashed, but he did not continue to control the ball of light. He simply wanted to use this move to test Li Duotian in front of him.

Although he could use his abilities to further control the ball of light, making it multiply even more powerfully, even surpassing the original ball's strength, he didn't do so. After all, if he used his ultimate move right away, the battle would end too quickly and be too boring for him.

However, Li Duotian's reaction did not disappoint him. He directly activated some of the Pangu Axe totems again, and they once again displayed their powerful strength in Li Duotian's hands.

The Pangu Axe suddenly developed an outer layer of light and shadow, and the entire Pangu Axe doubled in size. The next moment, the huge Pangu Axe, accompanied by the light and shadow around it, slammed down on the four orbs of light.

The next moment, light and shadow exploded, and the Pangu Axe flashed by. Along with the light and shadow, the four yellow spheres also exploded. The space in front of us seemed to be shattered by the enormous force, and the light spheres disappeared without a trace.

As the smoke cleared, Donghuang Taiyi saw Li Duotian's unflappable expression and nodded slightly. Li Duotian then said, "What? I only used a little force and your move vanished without a trace. You're not all that great."

Donghuang Taiyi didn't take Li Duotian's provocation to heart, and simply said, "Being able to neutralize the easiest move in my first black hole, you've passed the test, haven't you? From now on, I won't hold back."

Li Duotian, however, was not going to be outdone. He retorted, "Not just you, but I'll also let you taste the power of my Pangu Axe."

The next moment, Li Duotian also took the initiative to attack. After all, it would not be in line with his personality to always be at a disadvantage. So the axe in his hand was enlarged again, and the totems flashing on the Pangu Axe became more and more numerous.

This time, Li Duotian activated more than 80% of the totems, indicating that he was taking this attack very seriously.

One of the characteristics of this Pangu Axe is that the more totems are activated, the greater the weight contained in the axe itself, and the larger its size will also be.

The Pangu Axe in Li Duotian's hand is now twice as tall as Li Duotian himself, giving the impression that a single strike of the Pangu Axe would split the heavens and the earth.

The other demons, seeing how fiercely this guy was attacking when he got serious, couldn't help but feel a little uneasy for their young master. After all, Donghuang Taiyi was indeed small under that axe and didn't seem to be able to withstand it so easily.

Feeling Li Duotian's fierce attack, Donghuang Taiyi frowned slightly. Clearly, such a fierce and pure attack of power was somewhat beyond his expectations.

They thought that the Pangu Axe in Li Duotian's hand had already exerted its full power when breaking their black hole ability, but they didn't expect that was just the beginning. It seems that they can't hold back this time either.

The three black hole powers around Donghuang Taiyi erupted simultaneously, forming a black barrier in front of him. This barrier continued to advance, as if it were actively welcoming the attack of Li Duotian's Pangu Axe.

Chapter 1387 First Move: Bloodbath

When Li Duotian saw that Donghuang Taiyi dared to take his attack head-on, he curled his lip. What he was afraid of was that Donghuang Taiyi would not dare to take his attack and would use strange movement techniques to dodge his attack, just like before. If that happened, he would have to put in some effort.

Now that Donghuang Taiyi dares to confront him head-on, Li Duotian has become even more arrogant.

He thought to himself, "Since you're so eager to die, I'll let you taste the full power of my Pangu Axe."

Then Li Duotian activated the remaining two layers of totems at the same time, and the Pangu Axe instantly smoothed the great array as if it were about to blind the entire cave.

The Pangu Axe, having activated all the totem's power, revealed its true form. Its originally simple and unadorned appearance had become magnificent. However, the light and shadow on its exterior had all been contained within the Pangu Axe itself, making it increasingly refined.

The wind pressure where he had applied the decree was now so intense that it was making the ground creak violently. The demons who were slightly closer were constantly retreating, feeling that if they didn't leave soon, they might be blown away by the strong wind, which would be too embarrassing.

Donghuang Taiyi sensed the renewed surge of his opponent's attack and dared not hold back any longer. He poured all the energy from the three black holes into the barrier above.

After Donghuang Taiyi focused his energy on the barrier again, it became increasingly solid and continued to shrink, indicating that Donghuang Taiyi was preparing for a fixed-point defense.

After all, when he saw the incredibly powerful Pangu Axe, he subconsciously thought that the strongest point of power should be at the top. As long as the attack at the point of explosive power could be blocked, the rest of the attacks would be secondary and not so difficult to resist.

Moreover, this explosive power, once unleashed, will eventually weaken and exhaust itself, blocking the strongest point. This would severely damage Li Duotian's confidence in subsequent attacks.

Although Donghuang Taiyi chose the most correct way to deal with the situation and used all his strength, neither of them expected that their first move would unleash their full power.

If we disregard the previous test move, then the two of them unleashed their full power right from the start, a situation rarely seen in sparring or life-or-death battles.

However, Donghuang Taiyi's all-out defense was still effective. Although Li Duotian's Pangu Axe eventually struck, the strange energy on the shield neutralized most of the impact of the attack.

Li Duotian's Pangu Axe pressed down on Donghuang Taiyi inch by inch. Although Donghuang Taiyi's shield was constantly being pushed back, it showed no signs of breaking.

When the two were almost completely exhausted, the shields began to dim, and the gleam on the Pangu Axe also began to fade, resulting in a draw.

When the power of the Pangu Axe was completely exhausted, the shield formed by Donghuang Taiyi also dissipated, and the last wisp of energy shattered in the void.

Chapter 1388 A Worthy Opponent

The other little monsters watching were astonished to see that this guy had actually forced Donghuang Taiyi to unleash his ultimate move right away, and even managed to fight him to a draw at full power. They were all dumbfounded, as if they had just eaten a whole watermelon.

What is Donghuang Taiyi in their hearts? He is an eternal god! Now that the god has been defeated, this is a huge shock to them.

However, both parties laughed simultaneously, and Li Duotian said, "Not bad, I didn't expect you to be so slippery, you actually have some strength."

Donghuang Taiyi, unusually, refrained from mocking Li Duotian and said, "Your strength is truly formidable; it seems I'll have to resort to some of my trump cards."

The two of them found a worthy opponent this time. They were not saddened by the fact that their attacks were blocked or that the opponent's attacks had exhausted their full defense. Instead, they were even more excited.

Although they considered that attack to be a full-force strike, their limits don't end there.

Their limits are meant to be constantly pushed to the limit, and since the opponent can withstand the most basic all-out attack, then the opponent has the right to see their strength, which they usually don't display.

Li Duotian's progress in strength might not be visible from his appearance, because the power inherited from the Heart of the Water God within his body is sealed with layers of seals.

Although Li Duotian could only unlock a few of them, those unlocked seals were not always in use. In normal combat, Li Duotian might only use the first seal.

This time, he was about to use the power contained in the second seal. It felt like Li Duotian's whole body surged for a moment, but then returned to normal. It seemed like there was no change. The only feeling was that this guy's power seemed to have increased.

The changes after Donghuang Taiyi broke the seal were even more obvious. A circle resembling a rune was inscribed on Donghuang Taiyi's hand, and he gradually absorbed the circle into his wrist, as if the seal had been temporarily lifted.

After the seal was broken, Donghuang Taiyi's body turned dark. Although he didn't become like a black loach, he was no longer as handsome as before, and his overall color became a shade darker.

It's also possible that Donghuang Taiyi didn't have good control over the energy of the seal at this time, which caused relatively obvious changes in his body.

Seeing that Donghuang Taiyi's hidden power could change, Li Duotian smiled and said, "It seems you don't control this hidden power very well."

"But your current appearance suits your temperament quite well. You're already a cunning guy, why bother to make yourself so handsome and turn into a pretty boy? What's the point?"

After all, Li Duotian's aesthetic has always been based on masculinity and domineering. He couldn't appreciate Donghuang Taiyi's effeminate manner at all, and even found it a bit laughable.

Chapter 1389 An Even Stronger Showdown

Donghuang Taiyi didn't take Li Duotian's taunts to heart at all. He simply said, "Whether you have good control over your own power or not, you'll know once you take one of my moves."

This time, Donghuang Taiyi also chose to take the initiative. The energy in the three black hole-like orbs of light beside him was once again filled, and the energy in the three orbs continued to swirl around him, gradually gathering into a larger orb above his head.

Seeing this somewhat familiar scene, Li Duotian said, "What, do you have no other tricks up your sleeve?"

"All you do all day is play ball, and with this kind of black ball no less. Don't you find it disgusting to play with?"

Li Duotian has probably been by Li Xiu's side for a long time, and now his skills in mocking his opponents are quite high.

Perhaps one day in the future, he will be able to subdue his enemy without fighting, using only his words to drive them to their deaths. He won't need to use brute force; he can achieve this goal with just his mouth.

However, Donghuang Taiyi was not affected by Li Duotian's mocking words. The light sphere above his head was injecting energy into the black hole around his body at an increasingly faster speed, and the light sphere above his head was also becoming unusually deep and huge.

This time, Donghuang Taiyi's attack did not use the splitting ability like the previous move.

This Black Hole Annihilation move looks like a very vicious attack, unlike the previous ones that relied on clever tactics to constantly annoy people. It seems that he wants to crush Li Duotian head-on and let him taste the despair of facing stubborn power.

When Li Duotian saw Donghuang Taiyi silently gathering his energy, he sensed something was amiss. It seemed he might have underestimated Donghuang Taiyi this time.

The attack launched by Donghuang Taiyi this time may exceed his expectations.

However, Li Duotian did not back down. Since the other party had brought him a surprise and given him another boost in power, he naturally could not be at a disadvantage. His power was hidden in his body and he had not fully unleashed it.

Li Duotian wanted a head-on confrontation, which suited his wishes perfectly, so he would naturally give his opponent a big surprise.

As Donghuang Taiyi continued to build up his power, Li Duotian gradually digested and absorbed the surge of power brought to him by the second seal. He regained the feeling he had when he first received the inheritance of the Water God's Heart. If he wasn't careful, he might accidentally bump into the top of the cave with just one step.

Li Duotian suppressed this violent power, gathering it in his hands and then gradually channeling it into the Pangu Axe. It seems that he still intends to use the Pangu Axe as a vessel to break through all laws with force, using true violence to shatter the so-called power condensation of Donghuang Taiyi.

Although Li Duotian and Donghuang Taiyi were focused on their own power, the energy that leaked out still affected the space. The little demons watching the battle around them were now retreating far away from the two of them, because they felt that even the slightest bit of energy leaked out had exceeded their limit of resistance.

These two are truly freaks. If their powers clashed head-on, the aftershocks of the explosion would probably send all the surrounding lesser demons flying away.

Chapter 1390 Reaching the Peak Simultaneously

Donghuang Taiyi sensed that the black hole sphere above his head had reached the limit of his control over its power, and he stopped forcibly injecting more energy into it.

If you want to launch an attack, you must control every single bit of energy, ensuring that every ounce of energy unleashes its full potential. Only by avoiding any waste can you unleash the strongest attack.

On the other hand, Li Duotian, who was on the defensive, did the exact opposite. All he needed to do was continuously pour his power into the Pangu Axe. Regardless of whether he could control himself, what he needed to do was to unleash his own power at the same time as the enemy's attack, and make it even more powerful than the enemy's. This way, he could dissipate the aftershocks of other attacks and achieve perfect defense.

Offense is the best defense. Although Li Duotian could not truly attack this time, breaking through the opponent's energy in an active manner was a better choice for the defender. The two men's momentum once again reached its peak.

Donghuang Taiyi looked at Li Duotian, who was preparing to attack alongside him, and said, "Are you ready to face my challenge this time?"

Li Duotian retorted, not to be outdone. "Enough with the nonsense. Let me see what this slightly larger ball of light can do."

Without saying a word, Donghuang Taiyi activated the light sphere above his head. The light sphere immediately transformed into a giant dragon and lunged at Li Duotian.

Putting everything else aside, just looking at the presentation, Donghuang Taiyi's move this time already scored 99 points. The one point was deducted mainly to prevent him from becoming too arrogant.

The black dragon charged towards Li Duotian with incredible speed, like a tiger descending a mountain, before he could even swing his axe.

Li Duotian had not expected that Donghuang Taiyi's attack would be so swift and powerful. Although the speed was very fast, the power did not diminish at all. Moreover, as Donghuang Taiyi continued to charge towards him, his momentum continued to explode, as if he truly had the feeling of being unstoppable and brave enough to conquer the three armies.

Li Duotian wasn't entirely without ideas on how to deal with this attack. He roared as if on instinct, and the excess energy exploded around him, creating a powerful aura around him like a blood-soaked war god.

This aura temporarily slowed down the Black Dragon Tide's advance. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Duotian gripped the Pangu Axe and fiercely cleaved towards the dragon's head, just like Pangu splitting the heavens and the earth. This time, it was Li Duotian's turn to casually slay the dragon!

The two men's attack caused chaos throughout the cave, with the wind howling and the wind rustling through the air. Even though the little monsters had retreated far away, they could still feel the tremendous tremors within the cave.

Mount Buzhou's body is quite sturdy. Although it doesn't give the impression of being on the verge of collapse, you can still feel the impact of the force, causing the entire mountain to sway slightly.

It could also be a psychological effect, but the attacks of these two were truly beyond everyone's control. When Li Duotian's axe cleaved towards the dragon head of Donghuang Taiyi, the entire space inside the cave seemed to freeze.

Chapter 1391 Persuading Li Duotian to Retreat

The two forces did not explode upon contact as expected; instead, they began to erode each other, forming a black hole once again at the point where the dragon head and the Pangu axe intersected.

Seeing the energy impact was so fierce that it created a temporary vacuum, Donghuang Taiyi and Li Duotian were both terrified. It wasn't that they wanted to do this, but it was something they hadn't expected at all.
