Too much fruit

Chapter 896: A Competition Thousands of Miles Away

Three points of helplessness, three points of resentment, three points of unwillingness, and ninety-one points of responsibility for the mountains and rivers of Da Zhou...
Hmm...Jiang Li’s Great Zhou.

All in all, Jiang Li had a very complicated expression on his face. He had to accept the expectations of the royal family and the nobles and take on the responsibility of the Great Zhou.

When Zhu Huian saw that Jiang Li did not struggle, he knew that the time had come. He let go of Jiang Li, stepped back a few steps, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty."

The eldest princess, members of the royal family, and members of the Jiang clan also bowed, "Your Majesty."

All the officials bowed and said in unison, "Your Majesty."

Right in front of this imperial mausoleum, the fourteenth emperor of the Great Zhou was decided.

Although he has not officially ascended the throne nor announced it to the world, his title and position have been determined, and Jiang Li has become the master of the Great Zhou.

He accepted the homage of hundreds of officials and the submission of royal family members. He gathered the might of the vast Zhou Dynasty and was like the center of heaven and earth, with his imposing manner rising from the sky to the earth.

"When I accepted him as my apprentice, I never thought this day would come."

Inside the palace, Tianxuan looked at Jiang Li's back, witnessed Jiang Li's aura filling the universe, and couldn't help but sigh.

The original intention was to find a helper for Gongsun Qingyue and recruit a son-in-law, but the result was unexpected that it would turn out like this today.

Now that Jiang Li has become the emperor, Gongsun Qingyue can no longer be the head of the Dinghu Sect, and it is time for her to go to the palace to be the queen. The Dinghu Sect may eventually be taken over by Tianxuan.

"Of course the master couldn't have thought of that. He married a son-in-law, but ended up losing himself, and he even competed with his disciple for a man." Gongsun Qingyue snorted.

If it weren't for that old witch's interference, this junior brother would have been her, Gongsun Qingyue's, alone.

When Tianxuan heard this, she knew what Gongsun Qingyue was thinking. A smile appeared on her beautiful face, and she looked at Gongsun Qingyue with relief and love as if she was looking at a good-for-nothing child.

Silly child, if it weren’t for your master, do you think you could keep an eye on Jiang Li, this troublesome guy?
Even with the support of the Gongsun family and a master like Tianxuan to rely on, he was still easily defeated. It can only be said that this stupid disciple is not even a little bit behind Jiang Li in rank.

If Tianxuan hadn't seen that Gongsun Qingyue couldn't control Jiang Li, why would he have taken action himself?

Although the result was that Tianxuan also failed...

When Yu Shi Yuanjun, who was standing by, saw the expressions of the master and disciple, she knew what they were thinking and could not help but smile in an inexplicable way.

As the center of their conversation, Jiang Li had no time to pay attention to the three women's words. As the title was determined, Jiang Li's progress in integrating the Qingdi Dao Fruit was once again promoted.

Qingdi Qingdi, since he carries the word "emperor", even if he is not mainly responsible for ruling, he is still an emperor, or even an emperor who ascends from human to god, and his future is to become the emperor of heaven. The determination of the title affects this cause and effect, and brings greater progress than taking over the Buddha Kingdom.

Even though it is now divided, the emperor is still the ruler of the nine states in name. A lean camel is bigger than a horse, and the size of the Great Zhou exceeds that of the Buddhist Kingdom by more than one level.

As the Dao Fruit was further integrated, Jiang Li's mastery of the magical powers was further deepened. The blessing brought by [I am the State] was increasing, and [The Emperor is from the Shock] was also more profound.

The Emperor comes out from Zhen, meets in Xun, meets in Li, serves in Kun, speaks in Dui, fights in Qian, works in Kan, and accomplishes his words in Gen.

All things come from the Emperor, and the Emperor rules over all things.

In an instant, Jiang Li's thoughts expanded from the Divine Capital to the nine provinces. Originally, he could only perceive the Divine Capital, and although he could sense other places, they were not as clear as the Divine Capital. But now, Jiang Li really felt that the land of the nine provinces was his body.

The emperor achieved the realm of the strongest with the Heart of Heaven, and obtained the strongest power with the magical power of Dao Fruit. Now Jiang Li's realm is not inferior to the emperor with the Heart of Heaven. He even has a tendency to surpass the previous emperors because of his comprehension of the Map of Jingtianwei and the Map of Mountains, Rivers and States.

In this case, even though Jiang Li's progress in integrating Dao Fruit was not as good as that of the Emperor who had reached the first step of perfection, he could still see more from the magical powers.

However, when Jiang Li's thoughts covered the south, a heavy feeling suddenly appeared in his heart.

The heavy power of Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Yangzhou, as well as parts of Yuzhou and Jingzhou, suppressed the land veins of the three southern states and formed a barrier like a natural chasm, preventing Jiang Li's thoughts from being covered.

"The Lord of Heaven..."

The first person that Jiang Li thought of was Tianjun. His mind rose to a higher level, overlooking the Nine Provinces and perceiving the Three Provinces from another perspective.

One large tripod after another appeared in Jiang Li's perception. The bronze body of the tripod spoke of antiquity, while the simple dragon characters and patterns of mountains and rivers represented that it was a symbol of power.

"Nine Cauldrons!" Jiang Li recognized the cauldron almost immediately.

After all, he had fought with the King of Shu before, and he was the one who brought the King of Shu to the bottom of the valley. How could he not know the Nine Cauldrons?

However, the Nine Cauldrons should not be here.

The King of Shu is dead, and his Dao fruit has been taken away by Tianxuan. Could it be that the Emperor of Heaven has found the real Nine Cauldrons?

While thinking, Jiang Li's gaze fell on the three states. It was as if two invisible suns appeared above the nine states, emitting an invisible but real sense of presence.

At this moment, the sky above the three states twisted and squirmed, and an extremely huge facial outline emerged in the sky.

"Tianjun!"

"Jiang Li!"

The two parties recognized each other at the same time and attacked at the same time. The sky twisted and formed a huge hand, covering a space of a hundred miles, pressing towards Jiang Li's thinking perception.

It was obvious that he was extending his thoughts, not his divine consciousness, but an invisible thing. But when this big hand pressed down, Jiang Li's mind also became gloomy, as if the sky was falling.

But at the same time, a heavy rain suddenly occurred in Jingzhou without any warning, and the sky was filled with wind and clouds, lightning and thunder.

Jiang Li was in the imperial mausoleum outside the Divine Capital, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, but he created celestial phenomena out of thin air.

He grasped the laws of nature with a divine level, and with a slight movement he used the butterfly effect to guide wind, rain, thunder and lightning through the air.

Immediately, a huge divine thought descended directly. The half-mirror of Haotian allowed Jiang Li's divine thought to penetrate the distance of space and appear here, taking the form of wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

In an instant, the celestial phenomena moved according to the thoughts and formed the outline of a human figure, which appeared synchronously and occupied the sky.

Wind, rain, thunder and lightning entered his palm, and clouds and mist surged, absorbing the five turbid and evil airs between heaven and earth.

The turbid evil spirits were in harmony with the natural scene, and also a palm was pushed out to shake the hand of the sky.

"boom!"

Two earth-shaking forces collided, waves of air spread out in the sky, the space twisted, and a huge hole was shattered.

Jiang Li borrowed the celestial phenomena as his form and absorbed the five turbidities and evil spirits, which could be said to be a perfect combination of the power of nature and the five turbidities and evil world. However, the other party was not helpless against the five turbidities and evil spirits.

Tianjun also practiced "Qi Fen" and he also has methods to fight against the five turbidities and evil spirits.

Now that the two sides are in confrontation, the leaked strong winds have swept up rivers, collapsed mountains, and left the earth devastated and cracked.

Just a fight in the air caused such a horrifying scene, it was like the end of the world.

"boom!"

The huge facial outline in the sky collapsed in the impact, and the human figure transformed by wind, rain, thunder and lightning also exploded, leaving only the final wave to invade the earth.

It seems that this confrontation ended in a draw.

……

……

In Yangzhou, on top of a tall building, the Emperor slowly lowered his hand.

"Have you inherited the throne?"

Although it has not been announced yet, the Heavenly Emperor has already noticed the changes in Jiang Li.

Only by inheriting the throne of the emperor could Jiang Li make such rapid progress.

but--

“It’s a great improvement.”

Tianjun looked up at the sky, his eyes flickering, "But I want to know how much of your strength you have hidden."

He knew that Jiang Li would not easily display all his strength, at least not now.

But the gap between Tianjun and before is still huge.

At that time, the Heavenly Monarch was not in his true form, and his magical powers could not be used. Although the strongest had broken free from the limitations of magical powers, if they had magical powers to cooperate, their strength could be increased by at least 20%.

In addition, the Heavenly Emperor at that time had not yet received the blessing of the Nine Cauldrons.

……

……

"Tianjun, not bad."

On the other side, Jiang Li put away his energy and recalled the details of the fight. "Compared to the previous Tianjun, he is much stronger. At least he is able to hide. I don't know how much strength he retained."

"But I'm not bad either. I have hidden 30% of my strength."

The real confrontation hasn't started yet, so this can only be considered a warm-up.

"The most important thing is that the Heavenly Sovereign personally took action. He received the blessing of the Nine Cauldrons."

Jiang Li has been able to confirm that the Heavenly Monarch has possessed the magical powers of the King of Shu and his strength has improved significantly.

'He finally stepped onto the stage.'
