Chapter 836 Li Jun vs Di Jiaying (V)
[Suppressing Emperor Momentum]
Momentum, another name sometimes used for aura, can be used in various ways. And Di Jiaying created a method or technique based on it that is unique to her.
Throughout history, no mortals could be said to have defeated an Emperor–no matter the circumstances. After all, although Emperor Three Leaf sealed his power to be the same before he proved the Dao, it did not change the fact he was a higher being.
He had seen the higher existence of the Law or Dao. Even with the same strength as his past, his understanding and control of Dao were the same. But, even then, he still lost to Di Jiaying.
Her victory against such an existence gave her unparalleled pride, confidence, luck, and destiny. Why did Di Tian choose someone with a Tyrant or Overlord Dao as his general? Why not choose someone with a War or more military-based Dao? Or, just someone extremely powerful and talented?
Everything in the universe is connected in one way or another. Di Jiaying's victory a million years ago gave her the destiny necessary to become a Heaven Chosen that broke the boundary between Mortal and Immortal.
As such, although it seems she wasted all her effort, it was not the case. Di Tian waking her up was a fortunate encounter manifested due to her increased luck and destiny after defeating Emperor Three Leaf.
Now, Di Jiaying had the Dao Foundation of an Eternal Emperor–even an Eternal Supreme. As long as she can wash away her karma and prove the Dao, she's guaranteed a bright future ahead of her.
Luck and Destiny were among the many benefits she received after that victory. Many cultivators try to walk the path of Invincibility, and the talented ones can acquire a terrifying aura that can help in battle.
And it was the same for Di Jiaying. The essence of her Tyrant Dao is that she is above all living things and Heaven and Earth, suppressing them with her supreme might. And by defeating or suppressing a Great Emperor, she acquired an aura on par, if not greater, than the Aura of Invincibility.
So, after activating the aura, she released a terrifying suppressing power to the surroundings. Anyone near her felt like they had the gravity of more than a trillion supermassive black holes bearing on them.
But this was not over. A blood-red bead came out of nowhere and floated above her. Dao Rhyme emanated from the bead before entering Di Jiaying's Sea of Consciousness, drastically increasing her aura.
'This bead is not one of the Di Clan's Emperor Artifact,' analyzed Li Jun as he felt the potent force bearing on him on all sides. If not for his steel-like will, his mind would also probably be suppressed.
'More importantly, I wonder whether this is her last trump card?' he swiftly contemplated. The power displayed by this technique had already reached the peak of 8-Leaf.
'No, I don't sense any desperation from her yet. She must have something else in her sleeve.'
With this analysis, he decided what tactic to use to deal with his opponent. Then, a mysterious wave emanated from his body, reducing much of the suppressing power bothering him.
'Even my Eye of Killing doesn't work?'
Wang Wei once created an eye technique based on an anime from his past he called the [Eye of Death] that allowed him to see Death Lines on his opponent's body. And by attacking these lines, he can kill them. Li Jun was intrigued and created his version of the [Eye of Killing].
Sadly, the technique did not have the desired outcome. When meeting an opponent of equal power, attacking the lines will only increase the damage taken but not directly kill the opponent–unless very specific lines are attacked.
As such, the two turned the technique to work similarly to the Yin-Yang Eyes, where they can see lines on most techniques, similar to flaws, and attack these lines to destroy or weaken them.
[Suppressing Hand]
Di Jiaying waved her hand to focus all the Suppression Aura she released into one spot to increase its potency. And that spot was Li Jun's location. Luckily, the latter reacted quickly and instantly moved out of the way.
Li Jun and Wang Wei are the two people with the most battle experience of this generation–even above old timers like Di Tian Di Jiaying did not give up and attempted several times to suppress her enemy.
"What a slippery little cockroach," sneered Di Jiaying as she gazed at him in the distance. "I thought you were somewhat capable, given all your grand talk at the beginning of the battle."
Li Jun could tell the latter was trying to rile him up. Unfortunately, someone trained him to be resistant to these kinds of taunts, and that someone is his big brother.
Li Jun and Wang Wei are the two people with the most battle experience of this generation–even above old timers like Di Tian and Feng Heng. And the reason is their Dream Battle Technique.
Every single day since the creation of this technique, they divided their mind in two, and one part was always in a dream state, battling different opponents; the dream allowed them to simulate other opponents based on either knowledge of them or directly designing the capability of their opponent.
Li Jun often fought with Wang Wei in that dream as his training. And one of these training was how to analyze the emotional state of the enemy and use words to affect their mind and spirit.
And Li Jun has heard some of the vilest things from a human mouth that almost drove him crazy. In one of their simulations, he lost a battle without Wang Wei landing a single attack on him. The latter said so many terrible things that his anger reached a point that his soul burned itself.
To Li Jun, his big brother's mouth is one of the greatest weapons between Heaven and Earth. Luckily, he still has some shame and cares about his reputation, so controlled his mouth.
Well, maybe, that's not true. No one has ever pushed him to the point he needed to use these vile tactics to win a battle. And when they did, the opponent was too powerful for him to react.
"A little too petty, aren't we? You should fix that character flaw of yours," replied Li Jun nonchalantly, making Di Jiaying's mouth twitch.
[Freedom Robbing Fist: Speed]
Di Jiaying rushed forward and punched him. Li Jun's tactic was to delay time until she could no longer bear such power. So, he prepared to dodge most of her attacks while also analyzing her aura to see if he could seal with it.
However, his attempt failed this time around. As his opponent's fist approached him, he felt his body become challenging to respond or move; even his nerve, mind, and soul reaction was drastically reduced.
'This power, it feels so familiar,' was his last thought before condensing a metallic blood shield to protect him.
Boom!
His shield did not last even a second before he flew into the distance, crashing into one of the few pieces of debris remaining after Parasyte used the spear's power.
Luckily, the shield he created was not an ordinary defensive capability. He made it after studying the Turtle Shell's Emperor Scripture and other skills and techniques.
He condensed the power of trillions upon trillions of shields from an army of infinite size.
'What a terrible blow,' groaned Li Jun after feeling the destruction of his bones and internal organs. 'And that attack, it's similar to big brother's Freedom Dao. She took away my freedom, no, right to fast speed.'
Di Jiaying's aura made him feel like he was in a quagmire. And after she took away his speed, it was inevitable that her attack worked, and she suffered.
BanG!
Space-time fluctuated as Di Jiaying went for a second punch. And this time, she went all out, intending to kill. However, to her surprise, her opponent evaded the attack with his pitiful speed.
'What's going on?" She tried for a third attack, and it was still a failure. 'He seems to be using a brilliant evading attack.'
She attacked again to strip his right to move or evade. However, Li Jun's technique was too superb, and her attempt failed.
'The caliber of his technique seems very high. As such, it's putting a lot of pressure on his body, mind, and soul,' she swiftly analyzed. 'He should not be able to last long. However, the main question is whether he can last longer than I can.'
Meanwhile, LI Jun, using his ancestor's world-renowned Evading Technique, took this opportunity to heal his injuries. However, his mind suddenly paused for a brief moment that even someone of Di Jiaying's caliber did not notice.
'Wang Ju's situation has reached a critical point? In that case, I need to hurry up and end this battle.'
His mind worked rapidly as he pondered how to quickly push her into a corner and use her last trump card. It would be ideal to defeat her before she did so, but he doubted he could succeed with an opponent of such a level.
