Jiang Ming didn’t tell the Five Elemental Saint Lord about his origin.
The Five Elemental Saint Lord didn’t say anything either. However, Jiang Ming already knew the answer plain and simple.
“You’re no more than that.” The Five Elemental Saint Lord sneered and snickered, “Although your special abilities are strong, you have not mastered the wonders of the Saint Dao after all. You are only relying on brute strength. I’ll ask you one last time, where do you come from? Why did you descend to this world? Don’t ever tell me it’s just to save a little lady.”
The Five Elemental Saint Lord thought that Jiang Ming would descend into another chiliocosm just to save a life was just pulling on people’s legs! He knew from his experience that it wasn’t that easy to descend here when they were separated by the Chaos. In his past experience in the Chaos, he couldn’t even teleport around, let alone rip through space. He was only able to fly at a rapid pace to move around. After all, the Chaos Laws overwhelmed everything.
“Nonsense!” Jiang Ming grunted, he didn’t diminish the power of the Golden Obsidian in his hand at all. At the same time, he was contemplating which Saint Weapon he should evoke next to fight against the Five Elemental Saint Lord.
Based on the current situation, it would be difficult to defeat Five Elemental Saint Lord without using the Soul Dao method.
Jiang Ming had quite a few Saint Weapons in his hands: the Blood Banner, the Zhentian Tower, the Taixu God Slaying Needle, the Golden Obsidian, the Astral Golden Bell, the Spear of Judgment, and weapons that were comparable to Saint Weapons when fused such as the nine Universe Swords, nine God Sealing Tablets, as well as the Twelve-Graded Green Lotus that he recently just suppressed.
It was very unfortunate that the many supreme treasures that had been devoured by the Chaotic World Tree back in the galaxy. Although they allowed the Chaotic World Tree to grow to a terrifying level, it had also caused him to be in great pickle.
The other option he had was the Heaven-Shattering Spear, a King Saint Weapon.
“Nonsense?” The Five Elemental Saint Lord was furious but delighted at the same time. “Don’t want to talk? I’ll suppress you first, deprive your soul and reveal all of your memories!”
“Let me show you what terrifying power a Saint can exert within his native chiliocosm!”
“Saint Dao Fruit, Heavenly authority, empower my body!”
As the Five Elemental Saint Lord finished his words, a strange aura emanated from his body. In an instant, he invoked the power of the Heavenly Dao’s Origin Law of order, allowing his power to sky-rocket.
This was the enhancement by the origin of the chiliocosm, giving him the ability to harness the power of the chiliocosm itself. That’s what made the Five Elemental Saint Lord truly powerful and immensely terrifying.
Jiang Ming frowned. He had heard of such a situation before, but he didn’t pay much attention to it.
When he was back in the galaxy, the many experts there did not have this ability to draw on the origin of the Chiliocosm. He wondered if it was because of the special nature of the chiliocosm, or was it because that chiliocosm had its own consciousness already.
“Innate Five Elemental Great Grinding Wheel!”
As the Five Elemental Saint Lord pressed with his palm down, the void immediately trembled. The five elemental chains of order manifested itself. The chain which ran through the void itself seemed to have extended out from all of the matter of the chiliocosm, accumulating into a supreme power.
Between the intertwining luminance, it formed a grinding wheel and quickly descended upon Jiang Ming.
The void was frozen in place and time stood still. Under the area covered by the grinding wheel, everything around Jiang Ming stopped its cycle.
The laws and reasons, Dao and virtue, all seemed to have turned into nothingness. What’s left was only the grinding wheel carrying the power of destruction, rotating itself, aiming to destroy Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming’s body sank. He surprisingly found that it was difficult for him to move for a while.
‘So this is the power of the Saint within their native chiliocosm?’
This time, Jiang Ming was able to truly experience the power of a Saint himself. However, he wasn’t afraid at all.
“Zhentian Tower! Reveal yourself! Lend me your support!”
*Rumble…*
The supreme tower rushed out above his head. It was a nine-storey high tower that was oozing with Xuanhuang chiliocosm aura. The supreme power that was contained within it erupted right this moment, forming a heavenly barrier that covered the entire sky, resisting the falling Five Elemental Great Grinding Wheel.
The Zhentian Tower barely resisted the impact, but it was still coming down on him.
“Go forth!”
The Five Elemental Saint Lord frowned. His supreme treasure, the Five Elemental Pine Needle Tree turned into a stream of light, merging into the Five Elemental Great Grinding Wheel. At the very next moment, the whole void shuddered, and the Heavenly Dao trembled.
Zhentian Tower was swiftly suppressed by the impact.
“Astral Golden Bell, come out!”
“God Sealing Tablet, merge with me!”
Jiang Ming suddenly went all out.
He evoked another supreme treasure. This treasured bell directly lined itself right next to Zhentian Tower when it was evoked, spewing out trails of golden luminance. Even so, these supreme treasures weren’t able to completely defend against the Five Elemental Grinding Wheel.
But with the God Sealing Tablet merging into his body, his power soared rapidly. He raised the blade in his hand, launched himself up and slashed midair.As though he was opening up heaven and earth, he forcibly split the Five Elemental Great Grinding Wheel in half.
The Five Elemental Pine Needle Tree was blown away from the impact.
“To think that you are able to fend off this attack of mine!” The Five Elemental Saint Lord was taken back. However, his pupils constricted when he saw the luminance surrounding Jiang Ming’s body. A pang of jealousy suddenly loomed over him.
‘God damn it! That’s three supreme treasures! No, that’s not it. He seems to have another one still suppressed in his body, plus the Twelve-Graded Green Lotus that he had plundered. That’s five pieces of supreme treasure already! Damn! I need to wrap up this battle quickly. Otherwise, if those guys can’t help themselves from joining in, this will become even more troublesome.’
As such a thought ran through his mind, the Five Elemental Saint Lord began to go all out.
“Heavenly Authority, enchant my body!”
“Saint Dao Law Domain, suppression!”
“Reversal Innate Five Elemental Life and Death Formation, out!”
He was revealing all his triumph cards this time.
The power of the Heavenly Authority made him seem as though his body was forged of gold. Once his Saint Dao Law Domain was evoked, it completely turned the whole surrounding area into his domain.
He even revealed his most secretive technique where he had arranged an ultimate formation under the five Sacred Mountain beforehand as a preventive measure. He never thought he would have to use this technique of his, but he had to this time.
In an instant, the five tattered Sacred Mountains could be seen shooting divine luminance of green, red, yellow, white and black colors into the sky. As the five elemental colors intertwined, they transformed into a supreme formation.
This technique came to fruition based on his own power of origin coupled with the guidance of the Dao Patriarch as well as the Innate Great Array that he was born with.
When these two groups, Positive Five Elements and Negative Five Elements, merged together, they transformed into a great life and death formation array that dominated all life and death.
Whoever fell into the formation would lose the control over his life.
This time, Jiang Ming’s expression finally took a turn, revealing a grave look on his face. He felt his body was extremely heavy. With the suppression of the Saint Domain and the Heavenly Authority, coupled with the great formation, he couldn’t even lift a finger.
“Kid, what else are you capable of?” With victory within his grasp, the Five Elemental Saint Lord waved his hand, sending the Five Elemental Pine Needle Tree to merge into the great formation.
“You’re really forcing my hand!” Jiang Ming said in an icy-cold tone.
‘Return of Infinite Law Finger? That might not be enough to break me free. Infinite Transcendence Technique? It wouldn’t be effective enough. Perhaps the only thing I can do is to evoke the Infinite Vessel Manipulation Technique to break free of the confinement with just one blow. Shall I detonate the Wind God Tablet, a Saint Weapon or a stream of Quasi-Sage Dao Vessels?’
Thoughts raced through Jiang Ming’s mind.
Just as Jiang Ming was about to detonate the nine Universe Swords, the whole great formation suddenly shook violently. This caused the Five Elemental Saint Lord to turn pale as he became furious. “Damn it! The five of you! Stop it! Stop! Are you trying to become a traitor to our chiliocosm?”
His anger almost shot through the heaven, burning it into ashes. As he continued to shout furiously, he was trying his best to evoke the great formation and resist the trembles.
But in the end, it wasn’t enough.
*Rumble…*
As a deafening explosion erupted, the great formation blew up. Five Saint Experts could be seen breaking through the void and arriving at the scene.
“Five Elemental! You still couldn’t take down this feeble foreign thief after so long. You’re really tarnishing the dignity of us Saints.” Yin Yang Saint Lord gave him a meek smile and continued, “We’re here to lend you a hand.”
