Supreme Detachment from Emotion made all things one.
A wisp of Jiao Tongzi's will Incarnation seemed to become heaven and earth, filling the Ranking List. With the force to overturn rivers and Sea, it bore down on Chen Cuo!
As expected of a great Immortal Sect, its foundations run deep. Gao Bai before, and now Jiao Tongzi—their methods are exquisite. Though the thoughts of the Eight Sects trapped them at first, they've turned those thoughts to their own use!
Chen Cuo had spent three years in seclusion and had not followed every change in the Starweave Ranking. But when his will joined with the thoughts inside it, he understood all that had happened. He also saw that Jiao Tongzi had seized the momentum of the Eight Sects' stray thoughts and was driving them to attack through Supreme Emotionlessness!
Chen Cuo did not hesitate. He drove the Eight Sects' stray thoughts with his Mind Monkey and met the attack!
In an instant, the thoughts of the Eight Sects burst into brilliant colors, throwing sparks as they collided between the two men!
Then Chen Cuo felt an indifferent yet resolute will pressing toward him, inch by inch!
That will was smooth and solid as stone. It commanded the stray thoughts without being tainted by them, and pressed toward Chen Cuo with the weight of a mountain slowly toppling into the Sea.
Dao Yezi watched coldly. Jiao Tongzi had gained the upper hand as soon as they clashed, but that did not surprise him.
Jiao Tongzi has something of the air of a man smashing his cooking pots and sinking his boats. That's made his resolve firm! In a battle within the Ranking List, whether it's the phantoms of Divine Abilities or the Eight Sects' stray thoughts, all are driven by thought.
