If You Can't Even Get Foundation Establishment Right, What Use Are You?
The Giant God descended from the Cloud Top, and now, people Ten Lands of Jiuzhou could clearly see the giant face on the horizon.
Its eyes were fixed on Bai Qiuran, and the sound waves it emitted directly shattered the mountains beneath its face, spreading for thousands of miles.
"My dear Bai, what do you think of my body?"
Several giant hands emerged from the Cloud Top, forming various hand seals. During his more than 300,000 years of hibernation, Eastern Emperor Taiyi had also absorbed many magical techniques and Divine Ability from Human Race Cultivators and improved upon them.
"Truly worthy of being called the First Emperor of All Ages, Eastern Emperor Taiyi."
Bai Qiuran cupped his hands in greeting and said, "If you were to wield this body, even the Five Directions Immortal Emperor wouldn't be able to withstand you... Even my unworthy disciple's ability to stop you is questionable. The Eastern Azure Emperor has truly caused us Human Race a great deal of trouble."
"Your disciple? You mean the First Immortal Emperor Bai Li?"
Eastern Emperor Taiyi laughed loudly, "Don't you know? That's just wishful thinking, Bai Aiqing. I don't know whether to say you overestimate him or underestimate yourself... Let alone a mere Immortal Emperor Corpse at the Imperial Heaven Realm, even if Immortal Emperor Bai Li were to be resurrected and break through again, with this body, I would not be afraid."
"Immortal Emperor Corpse? What does that mean?"
Bai Qiuran asked in astonishment, "Could it be that Li has already...?"
"You can guess what it means yourself."
Eastern Emperor Taiyi arrogantly declared, "Now is the time for me to take your life, you traitorous minister, Bai Aiqing!"
He stretched out one hand, forming a pure Yang hand Imprint Technique, and slammed it down directly onto Bai Qiuran from the sky.
"Take this."
Eastern Emperor Taiyi's palm was enormous. Almost the instant he moved, a red, burning air shield appeared around his palm, ignited by intense friction.
Immediately, pure Yang Gang Qi burst forth from between his fingers, and his palm transformed into a blazing sun, crashing down upon the earth. Its power, heat, and size surpassed even that of a real Three-Legged Crow.
Seeing this, Bai Qiuran also formed an Imprint Technique, but it was the complete opposite of the Pure Yang Dharma Seal – the Taiyin.
His True Essence surged, transforming into a chilling energy that overflowed from his palm. In an instant, Bai Qiuran's body was covered in ice and snow, creating a vast expanse of ice and snow.
His body also transformed into a cold, gloomy star, rising from the ground to collide with the blazing Sun formed by Eastern Emperor Taiyi's palm in the sky.
The two celestial bodies came into contact and collided near the clouds, visible across the entire earth. A crimson sun and an ice-blue Sun pressed against each other, and the shockwave of energy instantly spread throughout the Heaven and Earth.
The two sun discs exploded, causing the entire Heaven and Earth to shake. Even the fundamental rules that constitute the Heaven and Earth began to groan under the unbearable pressure.
Eastern Emperor Taiyi's hand was pushed back, and Bai Qiuran also crashed to the ground, leaving behind a huge ravine that stretched for more than a thousand miles.
He rose from the ruins at the end of the ravine, looked up at the sky, and the Giant God Eastern Emperor Taiyi lowered his head and looked at him.
The two stared at each other, then Bai Qiuran raised her hand and suddenly cleaved open the space in front of her, escaping into the Void through the Spatial Rift.
"Haha, Minister Bai, I never dreamed that you would one day run away from me."
Upon seeing Eastern Emperor Taiyi laughed loudly, "But unfortunately, I will not let you go today no matter what!"
Having said that, he also reached out and tore open a huge Spatial Gate, stepping into the Void outside the world.
In the Void, Bai Qiuran, head bowed, continued to fly forward.
In that tentative exchange, neither he nor Eastern Emperor Taiyi were seriously injured, but he Consciousness that the entire world of the Ten Lands of Jiuzhou could no longer withstand the clash between two Heaven's Envy.
Left with no other choice, he could only escape into the Void, forcing Eastern Emperor Taiyi come into the Void and fight him.
The Void beyond the boundary is extremely dangerous. Even Immortal Emperor would not dare to say that it is completely safe there. The incredibly terrifying storms and tides in the Void can sometimes annihilate several worlds.
However, the biggest problem that originally troubled Bai Qiuran in the Void was not the various hidden dangers, but that it was a void with no foothold.
To advance in the Void and go far enough, one must learn to fly. This is why Bai Qiuran did not leave this world to seek a breakthrough in Foundation Establishment Method in other worlds.
Fortunately, he now possesses True Essence, and with the Divine Sword his wife Jiang Lan commissioned Golden Crow to forge for him, Bai Qiuran finally has the ability to move freely in the Void.
Braving the chaotic Energy Storm in the Void, he continued forward, arriving at a vast Void devoid of other worlds. Behind him, rolling waves of Energy Wave surged forth, with Eastern Emperor Taiyi, carrying boundless power, relentlessly pursuing him.
"Bai Aiqing, where do you intend to go?"
He laughed loudly, and with several hands, he used various moves, fists, fingers, claws, and palms, to blast towards Bai Qiuran.
Bai Qiuran also stretched out her hands and collided with his. In the Void, countless fist shadows intersected and blasted out independent spaces, which were then annihilated into nothingness.
A few breaths later, Bai Qiuran and Eastern Emperor retreated. Bai Qiuran raised his palm, which had some cracks and blood seeping out. However, the next moment, the Fortune Body Forging Technique activated on its own, and his insignificant wounds instantly returned to normal.
He looked up at Eastern Emperor Taiyi and saw that the other man's arms were also covered in blood, but after he took a breath, the wounds on his palms, just like his own, instantly healed.
"Minister Bai, it's unrealistic to think you can wear me down with your regenerative abilities."
Noticing Bai Qiuran's gaze, Eastern Emperor Taiyi laughed and said, "Since I said that my body is perfect, then it must perfectly replicate all your characteristics, your energy, your infinitely large Purple Mansion, and your immortal regenerative ability, I have obtained them all as well!"
"Then you might not necessarily win, Your Majesty."
Bai Qiuran scratched his head.
"If we're at the same level, my proficiency is higher than yours."
"Does Minister Bai really think that I am incapable of making reforms?"
Eastern Emperor Taiyi said proudly, "My body has been specially enhanced based on yours, with particular attention to the Purple Mansion and energy."
"Oh? Targeting the enhancement of the Purple Mansion and energy?"
Upon Bai Qiuran's eyes lit up, and he asked respectfully, "May I ask if Your Majesty has completed the Foundation Establishment?"
"Foundation Establishment? You and the book mean condensing that special gaseous energy within your body into the True Essence of Cultivators?"
Eastern Emperor Taiyi chuckled and said, "Minister Bai, you really love to talk nonsense. Your energy, in terms of both quality and nature, is far superior to the True Essence of Cultivators. If I were to insist on exchanging it for True Essence, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?"
"Alas, what a disappointment. I had thought that His Majesty's words would surely offer some brilliant ideas to help me."
Bai Qiuran sighed, then looked at Eastern Emperor Taiyi with disdain and said, "You can't even establish Foundation Establishment properly, what use are you? Trash, go home and eat shit."
