Chapter 48: Wuji's War Reaches the Heavens

  The Tongtian Saint and the Wujie entered the Taiji diagram one after another. The Tongtian Daoist faced the Wujie Daoist: "You little kid, you should make the first move. Although my cultivation is only in the middle of the quasi-saint period, the gift I have achieved has not decreased. Although some methods cannot be displayed, it's not something that an ordinary quasi-saint can match. You may have had experience with cross-level battles during the Daluo period, but the gap between quasi-saints is thousands or tens of thousands of times greater than that."

  Wuji heard what Tongtian said and thought there was some truth to it. Moreover, Wuji was also clear that Tongtian had his own pride and would never lose face by backing down first. Rather than continuing the stalemate, he decided to take the initiative himself. Wuji said, "Uncle Master, please forgive me, I am being unreasonable. Please tolerate me." As soon as he finished speaking, Wuji didn't wait for Tongtian's response and directly threw a punch at him.

  Tongtian Saint saw the move of Wuji and also excitedly swung his fist to meet him, the two can be said to have no water in their punches, Wuj found that Tongtian Saint's physical strength was even stronger than himself, and couldn't help but say: "Master Uncle's physique is not bad!"

  "That's right, although we three Pure Ones specialize in cultivating the Dao, we don't have specialized training for our physical bodies. However, with each of our promotions, our physical bodies are tempered by the Heaven and Earth's primordial energy. Before becoming a saint, our physical bodies may not be as good as those of the Great Witch, but they're still quite impressive. When we become saints, we're once again tempered by the Heaven and Earth's primordial energy. Now, I'm not sure about the true body of the Great Witch." The Tongtian Saint said with a pleased expression on his face.

  Wuji felt annoyed when he saw that face, thinking it was unfair that his own promotion had been so difficult, being beaten and hunted down every day, going through all sorts of dangers to achieve what he had today. Wuji decided to teach his uncle a good lesson, anyway the teacher had already spoken up, and he believed that after this his uncle wouldn't dare to cause him trouble again.

  Wuji is a person who does what he wants, which is somewhat similar to Tongtian Shengren. Wuji freely uses various moves that he has summarized at the critical moment of life and death towards Tongtian Shengren, calling out to him.

  Tongtian Saint suddenly fell into a disadvantage, only able to defend himself. Although Sanqing's physical body was stronger than Zuowu's at the moment, Sanqing Saint had always relied on his spiritual sense and understanding of the Tao to fight in the past. He would use his spiritual sense to communicate with the laws of heaven and earth to unleash powerful moves against his enemies. But now, he was engaging in close combat for the first time, and Tongtian suddenly found himself flustered and at a loss.

  After taking a number of punches from Wuji, Tongtian's combat skills have improved somewhat, but he is still no match for Wuji, an elite trained through beatings. In their ten-move exchange, Tongtian was only able to counterattack one or two moves, defend against three, and the remaining four or five moves landed on his body, causing unavoidable pain despite not being seriously injured.

  The two fought for half a day, and eventually the Tongtian Saint had no choice but to use spatial teleportation to dodge Wuji's attacks. Seeing Tongtian Saint break the rules, Wuji also used his own spatial divine ability, and naturally he wouldn't be polite to Tongtian either, so he too used his spatial teleportation.

  When it comes to the spatial teleportation of the two, although they are similar, there are also differences. The spatial teleportation of Tongtian Saint is a divine ability bestowed by the Heavenly Dao, with a range of one hundred million miles in a single step. Although Tongtian's cultivation has been sealed at the quasi-saint middle period, this divine ability has not been lost. As for Wuji's spatial teleportation, apart from being partially bestowed by the Heavenly Dao when breaking through to the quasi-saint realm, most of it is his own comprehension. Although Wuji can already reach a speed of one hundred million miles in a single step, he is not a saint and does not have such a vast foundation of divine power, so his speed is clearly inferior to that of Tongtian Saint.

  The two men's offense and defense forms changed in an instant, with Wujin defending and Tongtian attacking. With one move, they released a large amount of resentment that had been accumulated from the advertisement. Wujin, who couldn't keep up with Tongtian's speed at first, took a few losses, but then he didn't try to compete with Tongtian in terms of speed anymore. Instead, he started playing Taiji on the spot. With his current cultivation level, Wujin's Taiji form improved instantly, and Tongtian's attacks were caught by Wujin in an instant, who counterattacked Tongtian.

  Both parties forgot their previous agreement and only allowed close combat, with each person starting to display their own understanding of the Great Way. Tongtian Shengren displayed his understanding through his fists, and it was seen that Tongtian Shengren attacked Wujie with various mysterious trajectories, although his cultivation was sealed and some of the Great Way could not be displayed or had greatly reduced power, but the power was still extremely strong.

  Wuji is now fully engaged in this battle, unmoved by external objects. Wuji clearly feels unprecedented pressure and involuntarily becomes highly vigilant. With the Tai Chi fist in hand, Wuji continuously merges the five elements of his own Wuji boundary with the yin-yang cycle of Tai Chi to defend against Tongtian Shengren's attack.

  The two sides fought more and more fiercely, the Taiqing Saint and the Primordial Saint on the sidelines were very satisfied. One was satisfied with Wuji's combat ability and his understanding of the Great Way, and the other was satisfied that Tongtian Saint would vent out the resentment stored in his heart according to this situation, and then apologize to Tongtian afterwards, which would achieve a better effect.

  As the battle continued, both of them were no longer satisfied with their current state. Afterwards, they each took out their own weapons, Tongtian Shengren's Qingping Sword and Wuji's Shigong Spear. The Qingping Sword, as Tongtian Shengren's ultimate treasure, had a power similar to that of the Shigong Spear.

  Only to see Tongtian Saint thrusting his sword towards Wuji, Wuji only felt that the sword thrust by Tongtian Saint was no longer a sword, but a piece of sky pressing down on himself. Wuji understood that it was Tongtian Saint's insight and epiphany. He could only use his own insight and the "One Gun Breaking the Void" technique of the Assassin's Gun to directly stab at the void in front of him, adopting the strategy of using a point to break through the surface.

  As the two men's battle escalated, they no longer adhered to the rules previously set, each displaying their own understanding of the Tao. Wuji was now clearly at a disadvantage, his comprehension of the Tao not bad but far inferior to Tongtian Shengren's. Wuji was being completely suppressed by Tongtian Shengren, and could only resort to using the "Heavenly Evolution" technique he had developed based on his understanding of the boundless heaven and earth. With great difficulty, he defended against Tongtian Shengren's attacks, absorbing a small portion of the heavenly laws embedded in them. Although the amount was small, even a tiny mosquito is still flesh, and Wuji's "Heavenly Evolution" technique continued to advance and mature.

  Both sides were at a stalemate, and the Great Sage Tongtian and Wuji had been fighting for ten days. The current complexion of Tongtian could be said to be refreshed, making Taichu Sage and Yuanshu Sage who were watching the battle from the side very satisfied. Wuji was miserable, he had already woken up in the realm of enlightenment of the Great Dao, but his own magical powers were not as good as Tongtian's, which could borrow the power of heaven, and his magical powers were endless. When he didn't use the power of the Wujie border, he could only rely on his own bitter persistence.

  Taiqing Saint saw the situation was almost done, then he took action to separate the two people. He waved out a stream of spiritual power into Wuji's body to help him recover his spiritual power. Wujie didn't hesitate and directly absorbed it into his Wuji boundary. Then he took out another 9-turn Golden Elixir and consumed it, sitting down to recover his spiritual power.
