Originally thought it was the Dharma Protector God of the Buddha Country blocking the way, unexpectedly there was no one from the Buddha Country, instead, a stranger became the heavenly barrier.

In the sunlight, that figure was dazzling and sacred, while in the front, it seemed covered by a massive shadow, creating a suffocating sense of pressure.

"Shen Hou, it's Jiang Sikong."

The Dragon Whisker Tiger, already pressed onto a giant rock, asked Shen Hou on its back, "What should we do?"

"What else can we do? Fight." Shen Hou said in a low voice.

"Huh? We fight Jiang Sikong?" Dragon Whisker Tiger was a bit confused.

Shouldn't you consider the disparity between the two sides first, don't end up turning to dust under the opponent's palm.

"Just make a show, let others go first." Shen Hou said.

He too wore a face full of bitterness. If he could, Shen Hou already wanted to return to his original camp. But since Jiang Li and Daoist Guang Cheng didn't call it off, Shen Hou could only continue to undercover.

'Once I return to the family in the future, I must have the family head give me a status under one but above ten thousand, and as for the sect, if they don't make me deputy temple master, they better not think of dismissing me. I've given too much for the family and the sect.'

Shen Hou cried out in his heart as he gripped the God-beating Whip in his hand.

There was definitely a need to fight, but himself being merely a fourth-rank, it was best not to rush to the forefront and cause a scene. Better to stay behind and wait for those third grades to act.

At least, Shen Hou could confirm that the Upper Pure Sect, Dragon Palace had already arrived at the Buddha Country, and there was also the Heterodox, those ragtag individuals surviving within the Buddha Country backed by a third-grade person.

"Shen Hou, they may not be willing to act either."

The Dragon Whisker Tiger spoke in a deep voice, its gaze falling on the Giant Snake Baqi within another river.

The giant snake was at this time wriggling its eight heads fiercely, with evil spirits surging, gathering strong disaster energy, but the Dragon Whisker Tiger clearly saw the huge snake body sinking down, silently submerging underwater, even into the mud beneath the riverbed.

This snake intends to escape.

Back then, after much effort, the Giant Snake Baqi was about to break free from Mount Tai, only to be stepped back by Jiang Li, and was later cut down in both physical body and main body. Had it not been for its avatar remaining outside, it would already have perished at Jiang Li's hands.

After such an ordeal, the Giant Snake Baqi had decided always to retreat three days away from Jiang Li; wherever Jiang Li was, there was absolutely no place for it.

However—

"Whether they are willing or not doesn't matter." Shen Hou also glanced at the Giant Snake Baqi, a cold smile appearing on his face.

Fourth-rank may be strong, but in today's world, even a fourth-rank is just a slightly more significant pawn. As one after another third-grade ended, the era of fourth-rank has passed.

Sure enough, as soon as Shen Hou's voice fell, a thread of golden light appeared in the eight blood-red snake eyes of the Giant Snake Baqi, and suddenly its malevolent nature was unveiled, the eight heads spewing out baleful, evil energy.

"Evil Luo Sheng."

Amid surging evil energy, countless skulls whirled and crowded, forming into a gigantic gate, shaking towards the top of Eight Peaks Mountain at that figure.

At the same time, the Flood Dragon emerged from the water, revealing a body stretching dozens of feet long, roaring loudly, raising heavenly waves as the tides in the rift valley were forcibly pulled up, measuring by tonnes, crashing towards Eight Peaks Mountain.

One above, one below, though belonging to different forces, they chose to cooperate at this moment.

Above was the demonic energy forming into the Luo Sheng Gate, below were the towering waves, enveloping Jiang Li and the Eight Peaks underfoot within the strike range.

Facing this sudden explosive attack, Jiang Li neither moved nor raised his hands, barely shifting his gaze, and a barrier spontaneously formed.

An invisible barrier appeared before Eight Peaks Mountain, as disastrous, evil energy and raging tidal waves crashed simultaneously against the barrier, stirring up evil currents and wild waves, yet that barrier was—

Immovable as a mountain!

"Roar!"

Following the evil energy, eight grisly serpent heads pierced through, a fierce edge cutting through the skies, it was precisely the Sky Cluster Cloud Sword.

The Sky Cluster Cloud Sword of Giant Snake Baqi had been seized by Jiang Li and refined into the Great Circle Sword, but its Dao Fruit Divine Power still persisted, and at this moment, the sword cleaved through space, falling straight onto the invisible barrier.

"Clang—"

The sharpness of the space-breaking strike collided with the barrier, producing a sound akin to metal clashing, yet the barrier remained undamaged.

Even with all its might, the Giant Snake Baqi found it hard to breach the barrier.

Meanwhile, a sudden dragon roar erupted, as a Flood Dragon dived straight down from the sky, having concealed itself among the evil energy, it soared high, bypassing the invisible barrier.

"Overturn the Sea."

The Flood Dragon roared angrily, and the water vapor, as vast as the sea, fell from the sky with a weight of ten thousand tons, causing the mountains to tremble.

"The Dao Fruit of the Jiao Demon King..."

Jiang Li had once witnessed the Sea God of the Dragon Palace manifesting its flood dragon body on Dragon Abyss Lake eight hundred years ago, and the Dao Fruit it contained was that of the Jiao Demon King. Now, upon seeing such a giant flood dragon again, it immediately corresponded to the Jiao Demon King.

He spoke unhurriedly, and as he finished his sentence, his gaze had already met the blood-red eyes of the Giant Snake Baqi.

In an instant, the Giant Snake Baqi felt the sky darken. When it raised its eight pairs of snake eyes, a towering mountain appeared in its vision.

"Five Finger Mountain!"

In the Giant Snake Baqi's mind, it recalled the scene of that day—a great mountain descending from the sky, pinning it to Yong Province, leaving it unable to move.

As the memories of the Giant Snake Baqi were awakened, the mountain became more and more concrete. Though it seemed slow, it was actually swift, and the heavy pressure caused its body to sink.

"No!"

All eight heads roared to the sky, and the snake tail struck the void. The sharp edge of the Sky Cluster Cloud Sword reappeared, piercing through the mountain.

However, neither the sword tip nor the thousands of skulls could resist the mountain's suppression. The Giant Snake Baqi's body was pressed by the Five Finger Mountain, and it fell with a rumbling sound.

In the eyes of others, it appeared as if the Giant Snake Baqi had originally soared into the sky, slashing at an invisible barrier, only to suddenly roar madly and plummet from the air like a mountain.

They did not see the Five Finger Mountain; it was as if it was merely an illusion of the Giant Snake Baqi.

In fact, that was indeed the case. When the gaze of the Giant Snake Baqi met Jiang Li's eyes, its Divine Essence had already been forcibly crushed, awakening the scene of fear in its heart. Then, the heart demon materialized into reality and directly affected the body of the Giant Snake Baqi.

This effect was no different from the true descent of the Five Finger Mountain.

In the perception of the Giant Snake Baqi, all of this was slow and prolonged, but as it fell, the ocean-like water vapor was just beginning to press down.

Jiang Li raised his left hand gently, and a Great Sun rose from behind, illuminating the world. The boundless light evaporated the water vapor, and in an instant, the body of the flood dragon was engulfed by the light.

In just an instant, both sides were defeated.

The Giant Snake Baqi fell into the rift valley, shaking the ground. Its body, overwhelmed as if crushed by Mount Tai, was shattered and blurred. Such a gigantic demon snake met its demise with such ease.

Meanwhile, the flood dragon in mid-air was burned by the True Sun Fire in the sunlight, and then—

"Buzz—"

The space trembled, and the body of the flood dragon began to rapidly expand, from tens of feet to hundreds of feet, and then to hundreds of miles...

An incomparably enormous Kun Fish appeared in the sky.

"That Wuliang Heavenly Venerate, pretending to be a fourth-rank..." said Shen Hou, who hadn't even started paddling in the water, watching the sky with his mouth agape.

This flood dragon was actually the Elder Da Kun of the Dragon Palace, a noble third-grade masquerading as a fourth-rank to trap others.

The Kun Fish was so large that it could stretch for over a thousand miles. Although not as exaggerated as the shadow of the Kun Fish seen last time, which could reach three thousand miles, last time it was not Jiang Li who faced the Kun Fish head-on.

This was Jiang Li's first direct confrontation with Elder Da Kun of the Dragon Palace. The enormous physical body bore the greatest amount of power in the world today.

With the Nine Provinces secretly divided and Jiang Li absent from the Great Zhou, in terms of power, Elder Da Kun was the first in the world, surpassing even Jiang Li at present.

With a physical body spanning a thousand miles, the amount of demon energy it could refine, and the power it could bear, were beyond estimation.

When Elder Da Kun launched a sudden attack, his massive demon body combined with unmatched power directly rammed towards the Eight-Peak Mountain.

In a flash, Jiang Li raised his head to the sky, his lips moving slightly.

"Up is down, down is up, above and below interchange, Heaven and Earth reverse."

Divine Skills were deployed, Oral Heavenly Constitution was spoken, Heaven and Earth inverted, and gravity thus inverted.

The gravity of the earth was forcibly twisted by the Divine Skills, accompanied by the massive consumption of Primordial Qi. The forces above and below reversed, Heaven and Earth seemed to hang upside down.

The Sun Dharma Form rose into the sky like the rising sun, unstoppable, crashing into the Da Kun.

The Supreme Yang, Supreme Fiery True Sun Fire collided with the boundless Water Element Qi like an Infinite Sea. Water and fire clashed, the sky dome shook, a peerless force blasted the above and below, and the earth veins shifted as a result.

A tremor erupting several times stronger than when Jiang Li first appeared burst forth, the roaring dust expanded in all directions, even engulfing some mountains.

Soon thereafter, water cascaded down from the sky like a reverse-flowing Tianhe.
