Chapter 898 You're Too Weak
They subconsciously stepped forward, subconsciously wanting to get closer to see the exchange between Yu Xu Yuan Shi and the Great Wilderness Heavenly Emperor, but they found that no matter how much they moved forward, the space was constantly retreating, as if time and space were reversed, and nothing could get close.
They only vaguely saw the young man in black raise his eyes and, uncharacteristically, take the initiative to speak, his tone flat and indifferent:
"Heavenly Lord, long time no see."
Heavenly Lord?!
The Heavenly Emperor's Heavenly Lord?!
The hearts of all beings were shaken beyond words. The moment they heard this sentence, time and space were completely reversed, and they were directly sent out of Buzhou Mountain for thousands of miles. The stars shifted, silently suppressing all the methods, unable to approach, unable to peep.
It was as if the reason they hadn't been sent out from the beginning was just to let them hear the title "Heavenly Lord." But how could that be? The always indifferent Heavenly Emperor certainly wouldn't do such a boring thing.
But, Heavenly Lord…
All beings were once again in a daze.
But they also knew the true title of that person—Yu Xu Palace Yuan Shi Tianzun of Buzhou Mountain!
A peak powerhouse standing above the heavens and myriad realms, today gained another title.
Yuan Shi Tianzun?
Li Taibai clutched his chest. As a half-Taoist, this impact was too great.
Emperor Jun strode over, his eyes lowered slightly, but he paused in front of the ninety-year-old Lao Dan, asking without much emotion, "You've grown old too, Boyang."
Li Er, styled Boyang, but the style was gradually becoming something that no one was qualified to call.
The old man sighed with emotion, "Back in the capital, I was fortunate to have your guidance, sir."
Emperor Jun said calmly, "It's nothing. Without me, you could have taken this step as well."
Lao Dan stroked his beard and then joked, "However, Dan still doesn't know whether to call you the lazy scholar next door, or the Eastern Emperor of Chu, or my Great Zhou Haotian? Or the Heavenly Emperor recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?"
Emperor Jun said indifferently:
"Then should I call you Dao Ancestor, or Li Er of the Western Zhou library, Old
Dan."
"The Laozi of later generations."
"Or the naughty boy who climbed into my garden barefoot and stole flowers and fruit back then?"
Lao Dan laughed loudly, relaxed for once, cupped his hands in salute, and then stopped talking. But he regretted it for a long time: "That boy back then…
"Only Dan is left now."
Zhang Ruosu and Li Taibai had already knocked over their wine pots, and the wine flowed down with a crash, falling under the cliff.
Zhang Ruosu.exe has stopped responding.
Li Taibai.exe has stopped responding.
The Water God Gonggong raised his eyes, his right hand faintly holding the long spear, but before he could make half a move, Emperor Jun's right hand clasped the spear point. The endless waves, submerging the world, were controlled by the shifting stars and the pull of gravity, unable to surge in the slightest.
"My strength has not fully recovered. Wait another three thousand years." The Water God Gonggong took half a step back.
The tiger's mouth on his right hand had already been torn open.
Old Mister Buzhou Mountain's eyes were deep as he stared at the Heavenly Emperor.
The Heavenly Emperor's voice was calm: "In the past, your temperament was uncertain, and you have experienced countless tribulations, but Old Master is still as before."
"I admire you."
The corner of Buzhou Mountain's mouth twitched.
Are you subtly mocking me?
Are you saying that I've been a spectator for the past few thousand years?! Who told you to tell the truth?!
Buzhou Mountain sensed the boundless terrifying tearing gravity existing around Emperor Jun, as if it could instantly collapse and annihilate his current state of cultivation, turning him into ashes under the pull of countless stars. The corner of his mouth twitched.
High temperature, chaos, tyrannical gravity, imprisonment, chaotic storms. This was just the power of natural attributes.
He's stronger than he was six thousand years ago.
He's already close to the full strength of Huntian back then.
A terrifying guy.
Finally, Emperor Jun lowered his eyes to the white-clothed girl who had lost her memory, his right hand reaching into his sleeve. His eyes were slightly lowered, and his aura was deep and terrifying. Buzhou Mountain and the Water God Gonggong subconsciously took half a step forward, but they saw the vast and terrifying Heavenly Emperor slightly leaning over, his gaze level with the girl, holding a pastry in his hand.
That cold and indifferent voice, like the vast starry sky, was probably a little softer.
There was an upward tick of one or two pixels at the corner of his mouth. "A gift.
"I found a mysteriously flavored fruit from the heavens and myriad realms. Although it takes three thousand years to grow, three thousand years to bloom, three thousand years to bear fruit, and three thousand years to ripen, it has no magical power or spiritual energy, but it tastes good. However, after eating this, everything will taste bland for a while."
Buzhou Mountain was astonished, "When did you learn how to make snacks?"
Emperor Jun said calmly, "I found a cook." Old Buzhou suddenly understood, "Oh, oh, I understand, I understand." The Water God Gonggong nodded, "I see."
Old Mister Buzhou Mountain felt that he had something in common with this poker-faced Heavenly Emperor and said, "Then your cook's food must be delicious, right?"
Emperor Jun shook his head woodenly, "No, it's the worst, the most…
"He has the power to turn all delicacies into charcoal in various ways."
Buzhou Mountain: …
The Heavenly Emperor said calmly, "But I discovered that by reversing his cooking methods and avoiding the order and techniques he uses, I can avoid all the ways to make this dish unpalatable."
"I can obtain food that is not top-notch, but has a very good taste and a dense, refreshing texture."
Old Buzhou Mountain was stunned, "Ah, this…"
All of them?
He thought for a while, patted Emperor Jun on the shoulder, and said, "You've suffered."
"It's not easy for you either."
The Heavenly Emperor looked at the white-clothed girl and said nothing more. He calmly walked towards Yu Xu Palace, the acupoints around his body swirling like stars, showing the terrifying phenomena of the collapse of the sun, the destruction of the universe, the shifting of stars, black holes, and the Big Bang, as if they could devour all laws and annihilate everything.
Buzhou Mountain and Gonggong's pupils contracted.
The white-haired Taoist lowered his eyes, and the Chang'an sword at his waist hummed, but even the humming was suppressed in the scabbard.
Buzhou Mountain looked at the Heavenly Emperor over there, and then at the girl eating the snack. It was obvious that the snack tasted very good. The old man sighed and said, "He really probably feels guilty because he couldn't arrive in time back then, but he just doesn't apologize."
"He'd rather run around doing these things than say a word of apology?"
Gonggong thought for a while and said, "Perhaps, the Heavenly Emperor cannot be wrong."
Buzhou Mountain sighed, "In the human world, this should be that so-called…
"Tsundere?"
The Heavenly Emperor walked up Buzhou Mountain step by step and stood in front of Yu Xu Palace. At this moment, the various phenomena had already subsided. Neither the Yu Xu Palace's small world, which was not within this realm, nor Buzhou Mountain could stop his footsteps.
Wei Yuan looked at Emperor Jun strangely and said, "That's quite a gift."
He was referring to the Heavenly Emperor taking the initiative to promote his name. "However, you probably aren't good at doing things like this, are you?"
After all, it was too rigid and stiff.
Shouldn't they praise each other first and then be modest? The Heavenly Emperor nodded calmly, glanced at the white-haired Taoist in front of him, and said, "Not bad." Then he shook his head again and said faintly, "Pity."
The young man in black caressed the jade flute and said, "The path of [Cause and Effect] does indeed have good potential, but I originally thought that you would walk the path of close combat or indestructible, in which case, combined with your own fighting style, you would definitely be stronger than you are now. [Cause and Effect] is ultimately not good at combat. This is a huge weakness."
"However, that axe just now was not bad.
"Worthy of praise."
The corner of Wei Yuan's mouth twitched. He lowered his eyes and looked at the white-clothed girl over there and said, "If you give her snacks, aren't you afraid that Fuxi will be angry?" The Heavenly Emperor answered calmly and matter-of-factly:
"He can't beat me."
So let him be angry.
The angrier he is, the better.
The white-haired Taoist was speechless, as if a word was stuck in his throat. This sentence was really like the Heavenly Emperor's sentence back then, "This bamboo forest is all mine," leaving him completely speechless, unable to refute. He could only say that the Heavenly Emperor was the Heavenly Emperor, and it wasn't a title he got for nothing.
The young man in black lowered his eyes and looked at the white-haired Taoist. In the end, he just caressed the jade flute and said:
"Do you still remember the third battle we agreed on back then?"
The Taoist nodded.
What was agreed upon back then was a battle with all their strength. To this end, the Great Wilderness Heavenly Emperor had even forcibly helped him break through another bottleneck in his swordsmanship the first time he appeared in the Great Wilderness. Wei Yuan joked, "Comparing strength? Or, like we joked back then, comparing cooking skills?
"Who can make the most unpalatable food in the world?"
"Don't look at me like this. I can actually replicate the cooking skills of the person who makes the most unpalatable food in the world."
The Heavenly Emperor said calmly, "If you are interested, we can do that later.
"But the third time, we have already agreed to go all out."
"I came here today to test your quality. As for the result…"
The Heavenly Emperor paused and said, "As someone who walks the path of cause and effect and has not yet condensed a Dao body, you are still acceptable."
"You haven't disappointed me. The wait of these thousands of years has been worth it."

"Wait until you can use that axe casually before you fight me."
The Heavenly Emperor said without much emotion, "After all, your Dao body has not yet been formed, and you have only just broken through.
"The current you are too weak."
Wei Yuan: …
He couldn't hold it in anymore.
The corner of the Taoist's mouth twitched, but he still said, "Then can we set the terms for the third battle in advance?"
In the final round, he wanted to save Yu the Great.
And by setting this matter in advance, Emperor Jun would naturally protect Yu the Great from anything happening during this period.
Emperor Jun seemed to have expected this. He looked at him and nodded, "Si Wenming is doing very well. After you and I finish the third battle, regardless of who wins or loses, I will release him. So you can slowly think about the final bet for this third game. There's no need to rush."
The Taoist breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He inquired about Yu the Great's current state, exchanged a few casual words, and then pondered for a moment and said:
"I have another question that I have been thinking about for a long time."
He looked at the black-clothed Emperor Jun in front of him and said:
"Since you are invincible, then I wonder, where were you during the great calamity back then?"
"I didn't see you during the collapse of Buzhou Mountain and the fall of Nuwa."
Emperor Jun's tone did not change, but his eyes narrowed slightly and said, "That is precisely why I have come here."
"Since you have already reached the level of the Ten Greats, your potential is good, and your quality is acceptable."
"It is time to let you see some things."
The Heavenly Emperor raised his finger and pointed to the sky and said, "For example, what is higher than the Azure Sky."
"For example, beyond the stars."
The white-haired Taoist had long wanted to know these things. He slowly nodded and instructed Jia Yi to invite Zhang Ruosu and the others into Yu Xu Palace. Then he and Emperor Jun left. In an instant, starlight connected to form a bridge, and they quickly left the Great Wilderness and even beyond the heavens and myriad realms, arriving in the region where the stars were located.
He saw huge stars floating, emitting vast and terrifying power and enormous tearing forces. The Heavenly Emperor moved without stopping. In this instant, the endless starry sky seemed to solidify, and the various colors became even more profound. The spirituality of self seemed to be stripped away, and a "door" appeared before him.
Beyond the stars!
The Taoist was silent for a moment and pushed open this door.
Then, he saw [Turbidity].
ps: Today's first update is 3,400 words.
Also, Emperor Jun's third battle is a battle with all his strength. In Chapter 850, it was mentioned before that Wei Yuan complained about Emperor Jun being invincible, saying that being the number one in cooking the most unpalatable food in the world was also number one, and then Emperor Jun said that he would find someone to do it.
