Chapter 982: The Rule of Reflection, A Terrifying Collision
Feeling a stir in his heart, Jiang Chengxuan realized that the aura of this glazed fruit was somewhat similar to that of the Creation rule.
This discovery undoubtedly startled Jiang Chengxuan, followed immediately by elation.
The rule of Creation is one of the most fundamental rules of this world, representing the most supreme power.
Even now, Jiang Chengxuan had only touched the surface of the Creation rule, relying on its residual power.
If this glazed fruit indeed had a connection with the Creation rule, then it must represent a great opportunity, perhaps even being a legendary level 9 spiritual item.
Just as Jiang Chengxuan was about to secure the glazed fruit, a sudden gravitational force emerged from afar, pulling the approaching fruit away.
Jiang Chengxuan looked towards the source and saw another massive meteor rushing towards him, burning with grey flames and carrying a certain force of rule that had snatched the glazed fruit away.
Jiang Chengxuan would not stand idly by. To avoid damaging the fruit, he shifted his focus, and a surge of golden light exploded behind him, materializing into a colossal beam of divine gold light that shot forth.
Now a Dao Mastery cultivator, this eruption of golden divine light had a terrifying range, covering the meteor in layers, with the rule of metal sweeping over it like tidal waves.
The golden light flickered in the void, leaving trails of golden afterimages, flattening the grey-flamed Dao Mastery meteor.
The force within these meteors was obliterated under the golden rule, turning into nothingness.
Thus, the glazed fruit was once again stationary, shining with glaze-like light, resembling a treasured lamp.
However, swiftly thereafter, another powerful force emanated from a distance, and the fruit was once again drawn away.
It seemed as if all this was designed, deliberately luring Jiang Chengxuan deeper.
This made Jiang Chengxuan slightly furrow his brows, and the Heavenly Calculation Technique whirled in his consciousness again, displaying the same divinations as before.
Clearly, if just facing the Dao Mastery meteors, there was still no imminent danger.
However, in the minutest details, there was a hint of instability, suggesting that something truly perilous might exist here, though Jiang Chengxuan had yet to meet the conditions to trigger it.
Thus, Jiang Chengxuan resolved to seize the treasure forcefully here, keeping an eye out, ready to flee should the situation turn sour.
Rumble!
The third majestic meteor possessing the might of Dao Mastery quickly broke through the layers of the void.
It too contained the power of rule, its entire body like obsidian, reflecting the energies in the void.
This bizarre form immediately made Jiang Chengxuan sense something unusual.
The rules it carried were probably not as simple as those before; after all, the meteor attacks gradually increased in strength.
The power of each meteor was stronger than the one before.
This time, Jiang Chengxuan did not opt for full force right away but first cast a fire talisman, launching a cyan flame spiral towards the black meteor.
The attack of the Level 8 fire talisman hit the meteor mightily, but then, a surge of black energy violently erupted from the meteor’s surface, tumultuous with rule.
Under this eerie rule power, the cyan pillar of the level 8 fire talisman was actually reflected back.
This meteor carried the rule of Reflection.
Fortunately, Jiang Chengxuan was prepared. A force of the Five Elements was deployed to erase the reflected cyan pillar.
This undoubtedly gave him a slight shock.
Had he struck with full force as before, the situation would have been much more embarrassing, and injuries would have been inevitable.
After all, having one’s own full strike reflected back at the moment of new force generation would leave even a great Daolord unprepared and unable to retreat unscathed.
By a narrow margin, what could have been Jiang Chengxuan’s strongest blow after ascending to the realm of Dao Mastery might very well have become his demise.
Fortunately, by observing carefully and opting to probe cautiously first, he avoided this crisis.
But the black meteor, reflecting a strange light, continued to carry violent power as it approached.
Although its rule was not offensive, its strength, possessing the might of Dao Mastery, was still formidable.
Jiang Chengxuan quickly thought through his options, and without any hesitation, he acted decisively.
The power of the rule of Samsara extended to its extreme, and a giant vortex suddenly erupted in the void.
A colossal hand of Samsara appeared out of nowhere, its might shaking the heavens.
Under the influence of the hand of Samsara, the surrounding rules and forces were instantly reversed, overturning the heavens.
Jiang Chengxuan waved his hand, and the hand of Samsara stirred up countless vortices, covering the black meteor.
In an instant, the stars reversed, the Milky Way flowed backwards, and the hand of Samsara and the rule of Reflection collided violently. The opposing forces clashed fiercely, causing the entire void to tremble uncontrollably.
The massive forces collided and then exploded, generating an even more formidable power.
Then, this force was reflected back, only to be reversed again by the hand of Samsara, and then reflected and reversed again.
Within a single breath, the two forces collided countless times, creating terrifying shockwaves that made the void tremble as if in the midst of an earthquake.
BOOM!
It was as if two Dao Mastery cultivators were furiously bombarding each other, causing explosions to erupt and stars to shatter.
But in the end, it was Jiang Chengxuan’s power of Samsara that prevailed.
After enduring countless reflections and explosions, the black meteor finally shattered into dust.
“Phew!”
This clash left Jiang Chengxuan feeling slightly fatigued, the danger involved was comparable to battling a master of the Dao to the death.
But then, the glazed fruit, emanating a misty light of glazed brilliance, reappeared,
flying towards Jiang Chengxuan and finally settling gently in his palm.
From the fruit, Jiang Chengxuan sensed an unprecedentedly rich vitality,
as if what he held was the essence of an entire miniature world.
Especially once he grasped it in his hand, he could feel strands of rules that were indeed very similar to the power of creation.
This familiar sensation made Jiang Chengxuan seem to recall the origin of this fruit.
