Mixed with resentment and frenetic thoughts, they flew into the blood-red cave, whether aimed at Yellow Heaven or Heaven, all were sent into the same place...

The pristine white vapor disrupted the form of the blood hole, three forces collided, causing the blood hole to explode like the demise of the sun...

Scene after scene reflected in his eyes, instilling an inexplicable urge in the white-robed young man standing on the hillside, a peculiar sensation that quickened the flow of blood in his body, making him unable to resist the desire to destroy.

This feeling should be called anger.

Then, his face suddenly froze, and waves of emotion appeared.

"I..."

"Even if I abandoned that part of the residue, I still couldn't avoid being affected... No, no that's not right, it wasn't me, it was Heaven that abandoned that part of the power..."

The young man's expression changed, feeling he had never been so abnormal before, and the more abnormal he found himself, the more abnormal his emotions became.

After a long while, as if he had adapted to his current state, he finally regained his calm.

"If Heaven has feelings, even Heaven ages, this is indeed a rare experience. Creating such a Magic Door, even in the history of the Human Race, you are among the best."

The young man murmured, his figure gradually fading in the wind, "But instead of seeking advancement through Dao Fruit, you focus on the Cultivation Technique. Ji Jiji, what did you discover?"

...

...

On the other side, Jiang Li was sitting cross-legged in a cave, with light flickering uncertainly in his left eye, fast at times, slow at others. When fast, the pupil of his right eye would begin to fade, indifferent and merciless; when slow, his right eye regained humanlike warmth.

After a long while, the frequency of the flickering light finally stabilized, the pupil of his left eye revealed, and Divinations encircled the pupil, forming Eight Trigrams, ceaselessly circulating.

"If Heaven has feelings, even Heaven ages," sighed Jiang Li.

When the blood hole was destroyed, Jiang Li could sense that Heaven took the opportunity to abandon that part of its corrupted power, the other two must have noticed as well.

After all, they each had more or less a connection with Heaven.

Then, the three of them burst forth simultaneously, each seizing a part of the power of the heavens.

Because Jiang Li had previously assimilated with Heaven, he managed to snatch the Eight Trigrams Propagation power that matched him. However, because of this, he was also affected by this power, showing signs of human nature fading.

It was only because Jiang Li had the Karma Collection targeting him, along with his cultivation of the Heavenly Escape Sword Skill and the Heart Demon Secret Sword, that after repeated attempts, he finally suppressed the influence.

But this also made Jiang Li realize that the method of Sacrifice to Heaven indeed served its purpose.

If the Taiping Sect really took over the world, making offerings to Yellow Heaven, it might actually be possible for Yellow Heaven to completely replace Heaven and devour it entirely.

'Even the Heaven Creation Device might be related to the Sacrifice to Heaven.'

Jiang Li's left eye swirled with Eight Trigrams, making derivations.

This power of the heavens, neither strictly essence energy, Qi and Spirit, nor Heaven and Earth Spiritual Mechanism, and also unrelated to the Five Vile Qi. From Jiang Li's personal experience, the derived power was more akin to Dao Fruit Divine Power, his left eye acting like a Dao Artifact or perhaps an external processor, enhancing his computation power while also alleviating the burden from his prodigious intellect.

Overall, it was beneficial.

The reason it was only 'beneficial' obviously lied in having both positive and negative effects, but the positives outweighed the negatives.

'In this case, I'm afraid I'll clash with both the Great Venerable and the Sect Leader.'

Thinking thus, Jiang Li readied himself, his hands on his knees poised to strike at any moment against the affiliated son-in-law lying beside him.

The final three-way clash resulted in mutual harm for all parties involved, whether it was the Taiping Sect's followers, uncollected refugees, or people from his own side, all suffered devastating blows. Many Heavenly Soldiers, as well as numerous of Dinghu Sect comrades, were lost; without the aid of Yin Tulong and Shen Hou, they might have been entirely wiped out.

As an apparent fifth-rank, Feng Manlou was also gravely injured, now placed in this cave along with the similarly wounded Jiang Li for healing.

However, that was only on the surface.

In reality, Jiang Li was there to suppress the impact of the power of the heavens and further stabilize his physical body. The previous collision, though brutal and damaging to all three parties involved, thanks to Taixu's Body and the fortune of Heaven, Jiang Li's most critical injury was the disintegration of his physical body, which had now recovered, leaving him with no real injuries.

As for Feng Manlou...

Even though he was severely injured, it wasn't due to any aftershock.

The injuries might be real, but the injured might not necessarily be "Feng Manlou," but another participant.

— Great Venerable!

And now, Jiang Li found that he might have to confront the Great Venerable.

If this power of the heavens indeed came from the Fuxi Dao Fruit, then Jiang Li absorbing this power, could this affect the integrity of the Dao Fruit? And since the three of them each seized a part of the power, a natural conflict arose between them.

Thus, Jiang Li immediately showed a stern demeanor.

"Enough, stop pretending."

Beside him, half-lying, leaning against the cave wall, Feng Manlou's face pale as golden paper, rolled his eyes and said, "Right now, your master is probably sensing your Qi Mechanism all the time; you're much safer than I am."

It seemed that Jiang Li and Feng Manlou were alone, while Tianxuan took Gongsun Qingyue to clean up the aftermath and handle what comes next.

But in reality, as soon as there was any disturbance here, a certain disciple as dear as life teacher would immediately appear, likely bringing along the rest of the fourth-rank.
