The book in front of him refreshed with lines of text, the words of slander made Jiang Li cough lightly, putting away the Dao Fruit of Han Zhuo and the other shadowy images.
'Am I naturally rebellious? Ji and Jiang, sharing the world, I hold great righteousness.'
Regardless of the nonsense from the Karma Collection, Jiang Li planned to later find someone to make the Dao Fruit of Han Zhuo into a suitable Dao Artifact for future use. Such a fitting Dao Fruit would truly be a pity if not utilized.
Not to mention, the Divine Skill [Rebel King], which is unaffected by imposing auras, could be quite useful to Jiang Li when facing the Supreme.
Although his mental state could withstand the aura of a Supreme, having a Divine Skill as assistance would make it much easier for him.
As for the Sun-shooting Bow······
Jiang Li looked again at the bow in his hand.
[Third Grade Dao Fruit: Arrow God·Hou Yi]
[Category: Human, Divinity, Ghost]
[Fitting Conditions: Fourth Grade Dao Fruit of Human, Divinities category, reaching the pinnacle of archery]
[Promotion Ceremony: Shoot the Sun]
[Divine Skills: Heaven Piercing Sun, Zongbu God, ??????]
This Hou Yi is not that Hou Yi, but the name is the same. Han Zhuo, who killed "Hou Yi", using Hou Yi's Sun-shooting Bow, it could only be said that Jiang Zhuyang had his own ideas.
Compared to the Dao Fruit of Han Zhuo who willingly joined him, the Hou Yi Dao Fruit in the Sun-shooting Bow seemed a bit ungrateful.
Only two Divine Skills were displayed, and the information was incomplete. Jiang Li knew the bow was meant to counter the sun, anything related to the sun would be utterly suppressed, and once wounded by it, both form and spirit would be destroyed, the injury so severe that it hardly could be healed.
Moreover, even when not facing something related to the sun, the Sun-shooting Bow could still exhibit simple and brutal speed and power.
The swiftness of the bow and arrow could almost chase the sun, and the strength could break mountains and pierce through peaks with ease.
Jiang Li, through observing with Cause and Effect, vaguely felt that the Sun-shooting Bow also involved the Cosmic Dao Technique, and if it could accommodate Hou Yi Dao Fruit, it might shoot arrows that traverse space.
Indeed, to shoot down the Sun Golden Crow, it couldn't rely solely on speed and strength. To wield the full power of the Sun-shooting Bow, even he couldn't achieve that at this time.
'However, this is enough. I'm already so restrained with my Fire Element; if encountering a true Golden Crow······' Jiang Li chuckled softly.
Besides the Sun-shooting Bow and Dao Fruit, Jiang Zhuyang left nothing else of value.
Everything had turned into ice dust in the previous coldness, even the metal mirror left only a few fragments.
Jiang Li observed with the Heavenly Eye, discovering that this mirror was supposed to carry a Dao Fruit and was a Dao Artifact, yet for some reason, no trace of a Dao Fruit existed within it.
'Usurping a nation, and this mirror······' Jiang Li slightly frowned, 'Could Jiang Zhuyang have usurped Fusang?'
Thinking carefully, the sun power that Jiang Zhuyang demonstrated earlier should have been taken by him using the Dao Fruit of Han Zhuo. The island country in his impression worshiped the Sun Goddess Amaterasu.
"Tsk, could it be that someone of my glorious Jiang family has their eyes on this Dao Fruit?"
Just thinking about it made Jiang Li feel nauseated, "It does give me another reason to destroy the head of the family."

Mountain of Mind and Heart.
Inside the dim Jiuhua Temple, the distortion of space gradually smoothed out, with the dim Buddha Light reflecting two gloomy faces.
Vajrapani Bodhisattva had blood at the corner of his mouth, and the damage to his External Dharma Form had also left him injured. Jiang Zhuliu, on the other hand, had a completely dark face, his teeth grinding with rage.
"Jiang Li! You killed my brother, harmed my kin, and if I, Jiang Zhuliu, don't avenge this, I swear I am not human!"
First, the third brother, then the eldest; the three sons left by the previous head of the Jiang family were reduced to just one, both dying at Jiang Li's hands.
Jiang Sikong was compassionate and couldn't bear to see partings through life and death, so he dutifully sent the head's sons to reunite with the previous head.
"Amitabha."
The golden orb in front of the roulette dimmed slightly, with the figure inside uttering a Buddhist chant, saying: "This poor monk couldn't save that Benefactor, you both, please accept my condolences."
"It's fine, Venerable Zhuanlun has already tried his best."
Although Vajrapani Bodhisattva's mood was poor, he was ultimately a decent person and would not vent on those who aided them. He raised his palms and chanted a Buddhist mantra, saying: "This poor monk will inform the Great Master of your support."
The implication being that they acknowledge this favor.
"It was a mere trifle," King Zhuanlun said flatly, "the wish of this poor monk is solely to protect this little corner of land. As long as this Jiuhua Temple remains undisturbed by winds and rains, this poor monk is satisfied enough."
Neutral?
In Vajrapani's heart, thoughts surged as he made secret plans.
It appeared that King Zhuanlun did not intend to involve himself in the internal strife within the Buddha Country, neither supporting nor opposing the actions of Manjusri's side.
However, since he had acted once, there would inevitably be a second, a third time. In the future, this off-the-record Bodhisattva could very well become one of their own.
After all, King Zhuanlun also practiced Summoning Techniques. He was able to stabilize his Primordial Spirit body after transitioning to the Ghost Path, thanks to the worship of believers, and his cultivation over the past century did not lack for incense.
The citizens of the Buddha Country were also grateful for King Zhuanlun's deeds in the past. Although King Zhuanlun rarely appeared before people, his incense offerings had not diminished but rather flourished.
Of course, Manjusri Bodhisattva's push was indispensable in this.
That Great Master wished to promote King Zhuanlun's cultivation of Summoning Techniques, allowing him to become one of the incense practitioners, further distancing from the Awakened.
Within just a breath or two, Vajrapani had already thought of several ways to draw King Zhuanlun to their side.
But, before he could put these methods into action, or even speak a word, King Zhuanlun's voice of astonishment reached his ears.
Outside Jiuhua Temple suddenly fell into darkness. Through the sole passage, one could see the disappearance of Buddha Light, the absence of daylight, as if Jiang Li's Divine Skill [Carry Mountains and Chase the Sun] had extended to this place.
Simultaneously, the roar of wind and thunder struck suddenly, the dark sky descending, pressing against the entire Mountain of Mind and Heart.
"What demon is this?"
From the No Buddha Temple, a golden light rose almost instantly, the Jingu Bang transforming into a Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar, soaring into the sky, colliding with the descending heavenly dome with a booming sound.
"Boom!"
The dome trembled, with intense sound waves sweeping hundreds of miles, the golden light reaching the heavens, holding up the descending sky, revealing traces like river valleys and some ancient bronze textures.
It was a giant hand!
A sky-covering hand obscured the sky dome, encompassing the entire Mountain of Mind and Heart, those traces and textures being the palm lines.
"Boom!"
The Jingu Bang continued to rise, overturning the sky-like giant hand, two forces clashing, unleashing storms and sound waves, plowing through one peak and summit after another.
"Fire House Buddha Hell Luo Hou, here to pay respects."
Like a primal beast roaring, the giant hand slowly withdrew, the incoming light illuminating a green-faced, fanged face with vermilion hair as thick as trees, an enormous body standing outside the Mountain of Mind and Heart, resembling both god and demon.
As the salutation fell, the demon god's body, nearly a thousand feet tall, began to move, breaking the Heavenly King Divine Statue not yet repaired, the sky-covering giant hand clenched its five fingers, forming a Fist Seal, then struck flatly.
The path of the fist was simple, yet carried the momentum to break an unyielding world, with infinite power, seemingly slow but truly swift, in an instant traversing the sky, smashing into the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar.
"Boom!"
Another resounding impact, as the fist crest and giant pillar collided, the sound of rushing rivers echoed, in that moment, as if heaven and earth were shattering, or an infinite ocean was surging.
From that giant arm, everyone heard the roar of a long river of blood and Qi.
Immediately, came the tremor of the Mountain of Mind and Heart.
The entire mountain range was shaken by the force, even the Earth Veins below trembled.
Luo Hou's strike, its power was simply immeasurable, making one suspect that if it wasn't directed at the Sky-Supporting Giant Pillar, the Mountain of Mind and Heart might be shattered by this punch.
However——
"Such a trifling trick!"
An equally massive form appeared within the Mountain of Mind and Heart, a furry giant hand bracing the Sky-Supporting Pillar, causing the fist crest to burst into a large swath of blood light.
