483: Boring

The Dao Source Realm expert killed by Li Chi had actually clearly seen Li Chi's movements; his Mirror Dao granted him extremely strong insight. Unfortunately...

Though his eyes saw clearly, his brain and consciousness could not react in time, and he died on the spot.

The other two Dao Ancestors were even worse; they neither saw clearly nor reacted in time, and one of them died in an instant.

The current situation had shifted from three-on-one to two-on-one.

The massive advantage they had initially felt... didn't seem so large anymore.

"Brat! Cease your arrogance!"

"Die quickly!"

One of the Dao Ancestors roared sharply and charged toward Li Chi.

Shielding Dao!

This was a defensive type of the Three Thousand Great Daos. The Cultivator would center their mind and gather Qi to cast an invisible wall. No matter the attack, it could be blocked. This Dao emphasized overcoming hardness with softness, turning the enemy's powerful strikes into nothingness.

After unleashing the Shielding Dao, an invisible barrier formed around the Dao Ancestor's body, faintly emitting a crystalline glaze texture. One look was enough to know it was incredibly hard!

Not only that... the other Dao Ancestor also launched an attack toward Li Chi.

Shattering Star Dao!

This was an offensive type of the Three Thousand Great Daos. With a single point of a finger, stars could be shattered!

Li Chi was unfamiliar with both the Shielding Dao and the Shattering Star Dao, seeing them for the first time. Facing these two Three Thousand Great Daos, a significant amount of pressure washed over him.

The Shielding Dao and Shattering Star Dao, one defensive and one offensive, formed a perfect combination of orthodox and unorthodox. Furthermore, these two Dao Ancestors had been companions for many years; they had frequently besieged and ambushed other Dao Ancestors. They shared a great deal of tacit understanding, advancing and retreating in coordination while covering for each other.

If an ordinary Dao Ancestor had truly run into these two... they might have actually fallen.

But the one they were facing was Li Chi.

The two Dao Ancestors attacked together with considerable might, but Li Chi still keenly perceived the flaws in both of them.

That was their mastery of the Three Thousand Great Daos... it still lacked refinement!

The Three Thousand Great Daos were branches of the Great Dao, and how profound and unpredictable was that Great Dao itself?

To comprehend a single one of the Three Thousand Great Daos was difficult!

And to cultivate one of the Three Thousand Great Daos to the Realm of Major Achievement... was even more difficult than reaching the heavens!

If judged by the System's standards, one Dao Ancestor's mastery of his Great Dao was at Proficient, while the other's was at Minor Achievement.

The Three Thousand Great Daos themselves were flawless, but because their mastery had not yet reached Major Achievement, significant flaws existed when they were performed... flaws that could be exploited!

Divine Travel Dao!

Li Chi unleashed his Major Achievement level Three Thousand Great Dao, pushing his speed to the absolute limit. He instantly closed in on one of them and launched a fatal attack!

Six Paths Reincarnation King Dharma Body!

A massive fist appeared out of thin air, instantly striking the Dao Ancestor who had mastered the Shielding Dao.

Li Chi had also applied the Divine Travel Dao to the reincarnation king's body, giving its speed a massive boost as well. In the instant before the Dao Ancestor could react, the punch slammed into his invisible barrier.

"Crack—"

A huge crack clearly appeared on the invisible barrier, like shattered porcelain.

Although Li Chi had not yet mastered any offensive type of the Three Thousand Great Daos, his True Lord Dharma Form was far too ridiculous. It had already far exceeded the limits a normal True Lord Dharma Form should have, reaching the level of the Three Thousand Great Daos.

The full-power strike of the reincarnation king was so powerful... that it was not at all inferior to an offensive type of the Three Thousand Great Daos.

In a split second, the reincarnation king's massive fist delivered three consecutive blows, forcibly blowing apart the Dao Ancestor's Shielding Dao as the invisible barrier completely shattered.

The Dao Ancestor's true body was exposed before Li Chi without any obstruction.

"Wait!"

"I surrender..."

A massive crisis of death loomed, and the Dao Ancestor decisively opened his mouth to beg for mercy, but it was already too late.

Li Chi completely ignored him. The reincarnation king threw another punch, directly smashing this Dao Ancestor to pieces. The immense force of the punch completely annihilated the Dao Ancestor's body.

As the saying goes: nothing is indestructible, and only speed is unbeatable!

This means that no matter how solid a defense is, it can be crushed by overwhelming force like dry weeds, breaking through difficulties with an unstoppable momentum. Strength can break all laws, manifesting the fearlessness and power of the brave.

Only speed is unbeatable refers to the ultimate extreme of speed, swift as the wind, catching the enemy off guard. Speed can decide victory or defeat, allowing one to attack where the enemy is unprepared and defend where they are unsuspecting.

In a confrontation between speed and defense, the defensive side is usually the one at a disadvantage.

So what if your turtle shell is hard?

If one strike doesn't break it, then strike it a hundred times!

How could it possibly not break?

After Li Chi killed another person, the remaining Dao Ancestor's face turned ashen. Knowing he had kicked a steel plate and that Li Chi was an existence they simply couldn't match, he immediately began to beg for mercy repeatedly.

"Lord, spare my life! Lord, spare my life!"

"This lowly one was blind and offended you. Please, Lord, do not lower yourself to my level and let me go!!!"

The Dao Ancestor kept begging for mercy, imploring Li Chi to let him go, but Li Chi's eyes were full of annoyance; he wasn't about to listen to another word.

"Noisy!"

"Just die in peace!"

The reincarnation king's fist appeared once more, and with just one strike, it smashed this Dao Ancestor to pieces.

Since arriving in the Origin Realm, this was the first time Li Chi had fought experts of the same Realm, and he had even taken on three at once.

He had originally thought this battle would leave his heart racing and his blood boiling... but the result was not so.

Li Chi stood in place, savoring the afterglow of the battle, but he only felt a bit of dullness.

Just cleaning up a few pieces of trash... what was there to be excited about?

After dealing with the three incoming enemies, Li Chi sighed softly and spoke slowly.

"You've been watching from the shadows for so long, aren't you going to show yourself?"

"Or... must I force you out?"

While Li Chi was fighting the three Dao Ancestors, he had sensed a prying gaze and knew someone else was hiding in the shadows, so he had remained on guard against this hidden person.

Having dealt with the three, Li Chi no longer had any misgivings and spoke out to expose the matter.

As soon as Li Chi finished speaking, a pleasant female voice rang out.

"My Lord is truly incredibly sharp to be able to detect my presence."

"It was my intrusion. I shall reveal myself now..."

As the voice fell, a Woman in Palace Attire appeared out of thin air in front of Li Chi.

Li Chi was also slightly stunned as he recognized the identity of the woman before him... she was precisely the woman from the booth next to his at the Rare Treasure Appreciating Conference!
