Chapter 777 Tong Ruobing Vs Jingwu Hua (II)

Jungwu Hua had many runes on her, similar to when she was in the Supernatural Realm. However, the runes were not on her skin but floated around her. The runes were beautiful and mysterious as they displayed the charm of the Dao.

Dao sounds or musing emanated from them, displaying the people to allow people to understand the Dao better. In an instant, she became n.o.ble, supreme, grand, and mighty.

"Emperor Body Awakening," muttered Tong Ruobing, unable to contain her shock. The technique of [Awakening] was something only Emperors could achieve after Grand Dao Source nourished their Pseudo Dao Body.

A Great Emperor's Dao Body is a manifestation of their foundation during the Mortal Stage of Cultivation. It's the result of their Qi/Energy, physical body, Innate Talent, Divine Abilities, Bloodline, soul, Willpower, and even Dao Heart.

As such, after [Awakening] it, a Great Emperor's strength will increase by a few percent, depending on the individual. From Tier 10 and above, the Grand Dao Source's percentage determined strength. However, the [Awakening] can give people of similar percentage a winning edge over the other.

Of course, this is not the reason the Dao Body Awakening is crucial to Great Emperors. This technique is one of the main ways Eternal Supremes are born. Their awakening can boost their strength by at least 1%, allowing them to kill Eternal Emperors with only 20% Grand Dao Source.

The awakening technique is why people who broke the Mortal-Immortal Barrier have a higher chance of becoming Eternal Supreme. Their Dao Foundation is so strong that it manifests in the shape of the Emperor Body Awakening.

Wu Hong once told w.a.n.g Wei that his Nine Extremity Foundation would grant him a 5% Grand Dao Source boost, and it would manifest in his [Awakening].

Tong Ruobing knew a little about the importance of this technique. So, she could not control her emotions after seeing Jingwu Hua's current state.

"No, something is not right,' she muttered, controlling herself and observing. According to the records she read, the [Awakening] often manifested in the shape of an armor made of runes. The records also dictated it could also take the form of different weapons, wings, animals, or various odd shapesbut they were all made of Dao Runes or Rhymes.

However, Jingwu Hua's runes seemed scattered and with no shape as they floated before her.

'This should be a technique that achieves an Incomplete Awakening,' she a.n.a.lyzed. She took a moment to check Jingwu Hua's aura and discovered the latter's strength was at the peak of 6-Leaf.

'An Emperor Offspring has too many trump cards,' calculated Tong Ruobing with slight envy. She could imagine how many trump cards Jingwu Hua's parents left for her. And these trump cards would be things allowed within the rules and regulations.

'I need to finish this battle as quickly as possible before something unexpected occurs.'

Tong Ruobing waved her hand, and a talisman appeared before her:

[Atomized Beam Talisman]

Tong Ruobing discovered it was challenging to create talismans involving the Supreme Outlaw. And using Law Resonance, she could, at best, bring about 70-80% of their powers.

She then experimented with refining a physical talisman and discovered how difficult the process was. Furthermore, she has to survive a terrifying Thunder Tribulation afterward.

However, she l.u.s.ted after their tremendous power and sought a way to use their full power. Her solution was to use one of their sub-Dao and elevate it to a higher level.

The [Atomized Beam Talisman] used the Atomization from Destruction Dao and elevated it to a level on par with its superior.

So, a terrifying beam rushed toward Jingwu Hua, eradicating anything in its path. Numerous black holes appeared on the beam's path as it tore through s.p.a.ce and collapsed the surrounding gravity.

Swis.h.!.+

Jingwu Hua evaded this powerful attack that was traveling an unquantifiable amount of times faster than the speed of light. Speed and Slowness are a concept of Yin and Yang. So, she used her Yang Dao to control the Dao of Speed.

The beam changed direction and followed her. For the next 15 seconds, it followed Jingwu Hua everywhere she went, preventing her from escaping. Finally, she rushed toward Tong Ruobing, intending to lead the attack back to its owner.

Jingwu Hua evaded all of the talismans in her path before reaching her destination.

'd.a.m.n it,' she cursed. She used her Bloodline Ability [Fiery Eyes] to see the unseen, the truth, and the unknown. Unfortunately, it was only after reaching Tong Ruobing she discovered it was fake.

The heat from Jingwu Hua's body eviscerated Tong Ruobing's illusion. Then, she turned around to face the beam.

[Nine Yang Flame]

A pure red flame that embodied the ultimate of Yang Energy shot out from Jungwu Hua's mouth, confronting the Atomization Beam.

Boom!

The Saintess of the Golden Crow survived the attack. However, she was not intact as a hole appeared in the lower left quadrant of her stomach, leaving the left part of her body in a moon shape.

'Luckily, I had used my Duyi Realm as a defense,' a.n.a.lyzed Jingwu Hua while scanning around her with her eyes and Divine Sense.

[Phoenix Flame]

She gathered the life (Yang) aspect from Life and Death (Yin-Yang) and combined it with her Flame Dao to create a Flame full of life and the power of regeneration. With a boost from her Duyi Realm, she was barely healing from this injury.

[s.p.a.ce Bomb Talisman]

A cube the size of a basketball appeared before Jingwu Hua and exploded. To create the cube, Tong Ruobing compressed a large amount of s.p.a.ce comparable in size to hundreds of the Myriad Emperor World's Domains into a cube before detonating them.

The s.p.a.ce turbulence created by this explosion was enough to destroy thousands of Middle Thousand Worlds.

Boom!

Jingwu Hua's flame burned the s.p.a.ce around her. However, the shockwave from the explosion crashed into her, injuring most of her organs.

[World of Yang]

Nine Suns suddenly appeared above Jingwu Hua's head, burning the surrounding billions of light years. Tong Ruobing could no longer hide and showed up. Then, nine ma.s.sive Golden Crows rushed toward with the power to incinerate the world.

Tong Ruobing wanted to take action but discovered her actions were very slow. Her movement, thinking, Origin Essence Operation, and even Law Control became extremely slow.

Soul Protecting Talismans appeared in her Sea of Consciousness, breaking the effect of this attack on her soul. Her thinking returned to normal, and she swiftly a.n.a.lyzed the situation.

'A domain that boosts her Yang Dao,' she observed. 'Using Yang Dao to control speed, she then robbed me of all my speed, thus achieving control of slowness. What a brilliant application of her Dao.'

Jingwu Hua's Dao should only allow her to control speed and not slowness. However, she achieved the same result by removing speed from her opponent.

Tong Ruobing's mind quickly calculated the most efficient way to get out of this technique, and the first thing eliminated was using absolute strength. In less than a nanosecond, she thought of a method.

Then, she blessed herself with a few talismans: [Speed Talisman], [Light Blessing Talisman], [Wind Blessing Talisman], [Sound Control Talisman], and [Thunder Blessing Talisman].

With these talismans, Tong Ruobing brought the concept of [speed] back to her body, allowing her free mobility. Then, she waved her hand to manifest nine Fire Phoenixes that overwhelmed her opponent's Golden Crows.

Tong Ruobing knew the benefit of defeating the opponent using their own specialtyit is devastating to their state of mind. And her strategy worked.

Jingwu Hua's body trembled when she saw her flame being overwhelmed.

[Pillar of Purification]

A pillar of golden flame descended on Tong Ruobing's head, purifying everything on its path. The flame contained the most profound meaning of Purification from Yang Dao.

Tack!

Tong Ruobing snapped her finger to manifest a large magical circle. It swallowed the flame pillar with no effort. Then, the magic circle spread so fast that Jingwu Hua could not react.

'A sealing array? When did she set it up?' Her face was difficult to look at. She felt a strange fluctuation from the array, but she could not a.n.a.lyze more information.

'I am outcla.s.sed. I need to run away.'

Jingwu Hua felt humiliated and unwilling. She used her father's special Emperor Bone to achieve an Incomplete Awakening. But even then, she was easily defeated and now has to run away.

However, she knew it was the best choice.

[Bloodline Ability: Fire Escape]

Jingwu Hua exploded into a large quant.i.ty of golden flame before condensing into a tiny dot like an implosion. Then, she was gone.

Tong Ruobing calmly watched this without any action. She never planned to kill Jingwu Hua for many reasons.

Firstly, she had reservations about the latter's father. On the chance she succeeded in proving the Dao, this might become a problem in the upper dimension.

Secondly, she wanted to use this battle to temper herself. However, Tong Ruobing discovered her opponent was not in the best shape. Jingwu Hua was distracted during the entire fight, making many mistakes, including not transforming into her demon form. It was as if something was preoccupying her mind.

Finally, Tong Ruobing wanted plausible deniability. Her current status was on the side of these traitors. However, she only did so out of desperation to have a chance to win this battle.

So, after she betrays these people, she can use the excuse she never killed any of the Heaven Chosens to show her innocence, to show this was all her plan from the beginning.

Of course, Tong Ruobing also knows her plan was obvious to some people. However, as long as they do not have direct evidence, she can argue her innocence that she wanted to infiltrate these people and destroy them from the inside.

The cultivation world has certain rules that it must follow as a society. And because of these rules, w.a.n.g Wei can secretly help the devil race but would never openly admit it. So, even if someone knows the truth, they can't do anything unless there is obvious evidence.

Tong Ruobing was using the same logic.

Northern Quadrant:

Jingwu Hua appeared with even more significant injuries. She hurriedly found a place to set up formations and hide. Unfortunately, someone found her before she could swallow a few healing pills.

"d.a.m.n it," she cursed after seeing who it was.
