Chapter 1512: Chapter 1005: Celestial Cloud of All Heavens_2

"Thus, in the face of assimilating with Heaven and Earth, it is less about confronting the enemy, and more about contending against Heaven and Earth itself."

The Divine Ability of assimilating with Heaven and Earth is considered a signature Divine Ability of the Mystic Sect, and as a true disciple of the Mystic Sect, Jiang Chen naturally knew it and understood deeply how to break this Divine Ability.

The method to break it was not difficult, but achieving it was tough. The essence of the Heaven and Earth Assimilation was to let the enemy assimilate with Heaven and Earth, thereby completely disappearing from between Heaven and Earth.

Therefore, if one could become a part of Heaven and Earth first, this Divine Ability could be rendered ineffective. There was no need to fully merge with Heaven and Earth, just having a higher degree of synergy with Heaven and Earth than the opponent’s Divine Ability would suffice to neutralize it.

Sounds simple, doesn’t it? But it is extremely difficult. On the other side, we have an incarnation of a Saint and twenty-four Great Divine Transcendents, who could claim their harmony with Heaven and Earth surpasses theirs?

But Jiang Chen dares!

Because of his responsibility in reshaping the Boundless Starry Sky, his synergy with Heaven and Earth is extremely high, arguably second only to the Taoist Ancestors, and equivalent to Empress Nuwa and Mother Earth.

Thus, while the Heaven and Earth Assimilation was formidable, it could not harm Jiang Chen.

In the next moment, just as the Divine Ability was about to hit Jiang Chen, the aura around him suddenly changed, as endless starlight descended, and his whole being seemed to transform into a piece of the sky, vast and supreme.

When the Heaven and Earth Assimilation struck, it passed directly through Jiang Chen without causing any harm. At that moment, Jiang Chen was an incarnation of the sky, a part of Heaven and Earth — how could this Divine Ability hurt him?

Having dodged this Divine Ability, Jiang Chen also began his counterattack. Harnessing the utmost power, all his strength concentrated at one point, he then threw a punch.

Boom!

A Supreme Destructive Wave erupted, as if Heaven and Earth were shattered at that moment, billions of miles of void instantly fractured, and the nearby River of Time and Space was also impacted, stirring up sky-high waves.

At this time, a purple figure staggered out of the cracked void and appeared by the side of the Heavenly Venerable of Dao.

Dressed in a purple Taoist robe and wearing a purple jade crown, with youthful features despite his white hair and bright eyes, he looked like an old man but felt more vigorous than the younger ones.

The Saint of Taiqing!

The self-corpse of the Saint of Taiqing, also his strongest incarnation, the Saint of Taiqing!

"Very well, I did not expect the Saint of Taiqing to hold me in such high regard, to deal with me, he even dispatched both the Evil Corpse and his self-corpse."

Jiang Chen did not find it amusing, only feeling a solemn pressure. To deal with him, the Saint of Taiqing did not hesitate to deploy two incarnations, clearly regarding him as a formidable enemy, thus showing his full strength.

"Star Lord, the Boundless Starry Sky is your destination, the affairs of the human realm are best left untouched, just stay honestly in the Boundless Starry Sky and focus on repairing the Cycle of Stars, that is what you should be doing."

The dialect of the Saint of Taiqing was less polite, straightforwardly stating his purpose, intending to slay Jiang Chen and force him to remain forever in the Boundless Starry Sky.

"Kill!"

Jiang Chen did not argue, launching an attack directly. Having been ambushed twice, his rage had reached an indescribable level, only to be quenched by blood.

Seeing Jiang Chen attacking, a mysterious-yellow small pagoda suddenly flew out from the top of the Saint of Taiqing’s head, growing against the wind to become ten feet tall, with nine levels, and cascading strands of mysterious-yellow energy enveloped the Saint of Taiqing.

The Post-Innate Merit Treasure, Earthly Yellow Tower, famed for undefeated defense. Indeed, its defense was unbeatable, being ninety percent comprised of mysterious-yellow energy and ten percent from the Creation Merit.

What does ten percent Creation Merit imply? Simply put, whoever obtains it could become an Innate Saint just like the Sanqing, even more formidable than the twelve Merit Gold Wheels.

However, powerful as the Earthly Yellow Tower is, Jiang Chen’s attack was stronger.

The elevated twelve Merit Gold Wheels, initially non-offensive, but when Jiang Chen activated the ultimate power, that terrifying defensive power immediately transformed into a strong offensive force, coordinating with the rest of Jiang Chen’s power and blasted out.

Defense is also power. The ultimate power, this is the Supreme Divine Power of the Pangu Great God, revealing its formidable might.

Boom!

With one punch from Jiang Chen, even the defense of the Earthly Yellow Tower could not withstand it, the cascading Earthly Yellow energy directly shattered, and the Saint of Taiqing under the tower was blown apart.

After this successful strike, Jiang Chen continued his assault, activating the Divine Ability of the Divine Furnace Between Heaven and Earth, seeking to refine all the shattered flesh and blood of the Saint of Taiqing to completely obliterate him.

But at this moment, an attack from the Heavenly Venerable of Dao on the other side followed closely.

Seeing that the Heaven and Earth Assimilation was ineffective against Jiang Chen, everyone immediately changed their strategy, assimilating their own powers, multiplying it onto the Heavenly Venerable of Dao, elevating his strength to the Primordial Chaos Stage.

Then, he saw the Taoist Ancestors of Morality wave the whisk in his hand, as the cause and effect, rules, and the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth seemed to vanish into nothingness under this strike.

"Boundless Void!"

Jiang Chen displayed Di Jiang’s Supreme Divine Power, and in an instant, millions of Jiang Chens appeared, filling up the void.

These figures were all Jiang Chen’s real body, not a single one was an incarnation. This was the result of him folding space millions of times, continuously projecting it.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

Millions of Jiang Chens punched simultaneously, their power being pushed to the limits, unleashing a barrage of Divine Abilities, most of which targeted the Taoist Ancestors of Morality, while a few attacked the Daoist of Taiqing.

"Break!"

A barrage of Divine Abilities came rushing, each carrying the power of Primordial Chaos, capable of destroying the Three Realms and turning them into nothingness.

However, facing such Divine Abilities, the Taoist Ancestors of Morality remained unflustered, lightly uttering just one word: "Break!"

The moment the word was spoken, a Celestial Cloud appeared above the head of the Taoist Ancestors of Morality.

The Celestial Cloud displayed five colors, seeming to nurture a world of Hongmeng within it, with the Sun, Moon, and Stars all included, and even celestial music resonating throughout the Vast Universe.

From outside the Celestial Cloud, countless golden lamps, golden lotuses, necklaces, and pearls descended from the Celestial Cloud like constant dripping water from the edge of a roof, unending and relentless.

The moment Jiang Chen’s Divine Abilities touched the Celestial Cloud, they lost all their power and failed to inflict any damage on the Taoist Ancestors of Morality.

"All Heavens Celestial Cloud!"

Recognizing the origin of the Celestial Cloud, Jiang Chen involuntarily looked towards the direction of Mount Kunlun.

The All Heavens Celestial Cloud, the protective treasure of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, and the last breath of the Pangu Great God merged with the Innate Celestial Cloud.

It belongs neither to Innate nor to Acquired, situated between the two. It has no offensive power, but its defensive capabilities are as formidable as the Innate Treasures, extremely powerful.

It is known to deter all evils and is unaffected by all laws. It ignores any attacks from precious weapons and is immune to all damage from Divine Abilities and spells.

In the past, the reason the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign and the Saint of Taiqing could break through the Immortal Slaying Sword formation without injuries was not that they were powerful, but because the sword formation could not break through the defenses of the All Heavens Celestial Cloud and the Heaven and Earth Mystic Yellow Tower simultaneously.

Although the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign did not come, he lent his protective treasure to the Saint of Taiqing.

The two strongest Magic Treasures in Heaven and Earth are now with the Saint of Taiqing, no wonder he is so confident in capturing Jiang Chen.

"Star Lord, do not bother trying anymore, you cannot kill me, you will undoubtedly lose this battle."

While the attacks on the Taoist Ancestors of Morality were ineffective, the efforts to eradicate the Daoist of Taiqing were also fruitless. Under Jiang Chen’s full efforts, the Daoist of Taiqing’s physical body indeed perished, but his primordial spirit was immortal, impervious to any means Jiang Chen employed, unable to harm him a bit.

The Sanqing primordial spirits, also originated from Pangu’s spirit, bearing the Pangu Mark, were indeed immortal in some senses.

Of course, there isn’t a true sense of immortality; if the power is strong enough, even the true body of the Saint of Taiqing could fall, let alone an incarnation?

But with Jiang Chen’s current capabilities, although he could erode the Daoist of Taiqing’s primordial spirit, that was not something he could do in a short time.

With the All Heavens Celestial Cloud above the head of the Taoist Ancestors of Morality quickly approaching, there wasn’t enough time left for Jiang Chen to slowly erode the Daoist of Taiqing’s primordial spirit.

"Star Lord, just give up!"

"Unless you can completely reshape the Boundless Starry Sky, only then can you erode my primordial spirit in a short time; otherwise, without millions of years, you can forget about eroding me."

Even as he was suppressed by Jiang Chen, the Daoist of Taiqing was utterly fearless, as he knew Jiang Chen couldn’t harm him.

His action now meant to stall Jiang Chen, thus creating an opportunity for the Taoist Ancestors of Morality to kill Jiang Chen.

It was simply playing tough by relying on immortality, an unprincipled method, but it was extremely effective, indeed holding Jiang Chen back.

"Do you really think I have no way to kill you?" Jiang Chen coldly smiled, looking at the confident Daoist of Taiqing.
