Chapter 2201: Chapter 2146–2147: Five Elements Origin, Peacock’s Trump Card (Part 2)
The Fate Dao, as the most enigmatic among the many Daos, is not something every being is qualified to contact and cultivate.
This fortuitous insight for Pei Xuanjing is an extremely rare boon for his cultivation, offering tremendous assistance for his future cultivation.
What seemed like a prolonged insight was actually just a fleeting moment, and a trace of regret emerged on Pei Xuanjing’s face, even at this moment, he was unable to comprehend the workings of fate. Among the many Daos, perhaps he could possess the power to reverse the fate of some beings, but in the midst of Chaos, such seemingly omnipotent power is greatly diminished, and the Great Tao of time and space is even more obscured.
Pei Xuanjing put away his regretful feelings, and the divine sword in his hand swept horizontally towards the Peacock King, who was holding up the five-color divine light. The formidable divine sword held the power to stand tall and firm in the heavens and the earth.
The terrifying sword intent, with unbelievable power, pierced through the heavens and the universe, even penetrating the chaos void. In other directions, the Thunder Law Body wielded various divine weapons, standing on the Thunder Sky Boat, charging towards the Peacock King.
The Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life moved within the chaos, commanding the All-Heavens Divine Thunder, and every sweep of the Sanbao Jade Ruyi carried the power to tear through the chaos!
The Peacock King’s eyes turned, and five world phantoms appeared behind him, corresponding to the intangible ways of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. These five worlds aligned and then rotated, the power of the Five Elements nurturing and supporting each other, generating a mysterious power, akin to the power of the Dao, and even more like an origin power.
“Longevity, over the years, this king has not been without any progress!” The Peacock King finally revealed his trump card, something he hadn’t shown even during his prolonged battle with the Emperor of the South Pole Eternal Life.
As such a powerful figure, he harbored great fury over the years; although losing to Pei Xuanjing cast a shadow over his mindset, it also provided him with enough motivation to climb to a higher level.
The rotation of the Five Elements World, the terrifying power of the Five Elements poured in madly, and the strength erupted from the union was almost unimaginable.
As the Five Elements gathered, invoking the Way of the Five Elements Origin, its very presence seemed to cause the originally frenzied chaotic qi flow to faintly feel submissive, as if a more formidable presence had descended, posing a threat to them.
In the Divine Continent, Zhu Jiuyin’s originally cold and indifferent eyes, at that instant when the origin appeared, the black and white distinct pupils contracted, his heart filled with incredible shock.
As an innate demon god born to the world and grasping the laws and authority of the Daoist rules, he knew of the existence of the Origin; this Origin Dao was the path he walked.
Originally thinking such a path was unknown to many, he never expected this former loser, the now Peacock King, to also walk this path.
“Dao Origin, I didn’t expect you to embark on such a path too, it seems that strong beings between heaven and earth are not limited to me alone!!” Pei Xuanjing swung his divine sword without any hesitation.
The power of the Origin, or rather the path of the Origin, was Pei Xuanjing’s true promotion to a granted level, touching reaching this level’s ultimate presence.
The authority of Dao Origin rules is what the Taoist Monarch needs to grasp, and further, to directly control the Dao Origin.
What is the Dao Origin, the start of the Dao, is the origin of all things, the beginning of all rules, containing infinite creation, the supreme existence.
Why are the lives of powerful Taoist Monarchs so tenacious? Besides the authority they grasped, it’s because they have imprinted their life’s mark into the Dao Origin so that as long as the mark has not been truly erased, there is a day of eventual return.
A being who commands the Origin, even when world shatters, and the heavens return to chaos, his true body can still remain eternal and can return again.
The power of the Origin descends; this is the initial force, a force that returns all things to the start, returning the world to Chaos, navigating the chaos within. Even the power of the world cannot truly face the Origin Power.
It was as if from the ancient primordial beginning, the first life, the first wisdom was born; the force of the beginning, the origin of everything, Chaos constantly collapsing over time, even refined divine weapon treasures encountering this power will revert to their newly born forms.
At the beginning, all forms of life are at their weakest, allowing even strong Taoist Monarchs who have yet to truly grasp time and space, at their birth, to possess only ordinary cultivation.
Although at this moment the Peacock King’s origin power is not so terrifying, yet the rotating Five Elements continuously weakened Pei Xuanjing’s power, constantly eroding and breaking down the Five Elements power contained within his divine weapon treasure, reverting it to the original state.
“All within the Five Elements is under this king’s control!” The Peacock King’s Five Elements Origin power swept across, seeing Pei Xuanjing’s obstructed state, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.
“Not good!” Suddenly, a flicker of shock flashed through the Peacock King’s eyes, his mind turned swiftly, in an instant understanding that he had fallen into a trap. When attempting to channel mana again, to break free, he found himself immobile.
“How could this be!” The Peacock King’s expression changed drastically.
Pei Xuanjing looked at the Five Elements’ origin power which no one was controlling, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, reaching out to grasp the Five Elements Origin, initially possessing the power to oppress the entire chaos, directly in his hands.
No matter how the power of the Five Elements Origin moved and writhed like a divine dragon trying to break free, it was unable to truly escape Pei Xuanjing’s control.
Though the Origin power was exceptionally strong, in the absence of control, it could not pose any threat to a strong Taoist Monarch.
Just like a formidable treasure, if placed in the hands of a true strong figure, perhaps its power would be fully unleashed, gods unmatched! But if this treasure were to rely solely on instinctive force, any True Immortal could easily control it, making no threat to a true True Immortal.
After finishing all this, Pei Xuanjing then set his gaze on the trapped Peacock King; the originally powerful Taoist Monarch, possessing the power to wield origin strength, was now imprisoned, life and death in others’ hands.
“Peacock King, your choice to come here was a mistake from the beginning. The instant you appeared before me, your fate was already sealed. Taoist Monarch, every Taoist Monarch is a person of outstanding talent, how could I alone contend against the Four Great Daoist Monarchs with a single power? Unfortunately, all of you lost your true nature, even if I were defeated, could you still roam the Divine Land World at will?” Pei Xuanjing sneered coldly, without the Four Great Daoist Monarchs not unified, more so loss of true nature, having underestimated Pei Xuanjing’s prowess, accomplishing the slaying of the Rewarding Good and Punishing Evil Two Demon Monarchs individually would not have been possible.
In essence, both sides were simply using each other; the Peacock King was too proud, too confident that his control over the origin power could conquer Pei Xuanjing; otherwise, why watch as the two demon monarchs fell?
Though he was trapped by the South Pole Emperor of Longevity, it did not mean he lacked the ability to save them; if he wanted, he could definitely obstruct Pei Xuanjing for a moment, enough to grant the other a chance of survival.
Even with Pei Xuanjing possessing two avatars, if the Four Great Daoist Monarchs resolved to escape at heart, they could not be annihilated; Taoist Monarchs’ strength transcend the shackles of life.
Pei Xuanjing revealed many trump cards, finally managing to slay Rewarding Good Demon Monarch with the help of the divine sword, while Punishing Evil Demon Monarch did not truly fall yet.
If they truly united, Pei Xuanjing would find suppressing the opponent overly challenging, perhaps needing more cards to play.
Unfortunately, with disparate thoughts and hidden motives, they couldn’t unite, eventually granting Pei Xuanjing the opportunity to defeat them one by one, leading to this predicament.
