The giant lantern in front of him was as majestic as a mountain. The aura it emitted was above that of an expert with 20 Great Dao. In a one-on-one battle, Jiang Li wasn't its match.
His current battle was at most between 13 to 14 Great Dao. Although he had the mental strength of a 17 Great Dao expert, his realm wasn't high enough. His mental strength was scattered and didn't have the imposing and domineering aura of a Great Dao expert.
The reason why Great Dao experts were Great Dao experts was because they understood what Dao was.
Jiang Li was only a Saint and hadn't come into contact with the Dao Realm.
Facing this genie, if Jiang Li were to fight in a real battle, it could be said that he would suffer a crushing defeat. However, he had the experience of killing the brain demon here, so he wasn't afraid.
If he didn't challenge those at a higher level, how could he comprehend the extreme Dao of killing in a life-and-death situation?
"Junior, you have only condensed eight nomological laws. You are an ordinary Saint. Why are you so powerful?" Unexpectedly, the giant genie didn't attack Jiang Li. Instead, it emitted mental waves and asked, "You seem to need genie to condense your nomological laws. How about I provide genie for you?"
"What do you mean?" Jiang Li couldn't believe his ears. He thought that the genie in front of him would immediately attack him, but he didn't expect that the genie in front of him was actually discussing something with him.
"If you want to condense the ninth nomological law, I can give you all my mental strength and body. How about that?" The Genie said, "My name is Deng Jiulian. I've cultivated here for many years, but I know that no matter how powerful my cultivation is, I can't leave this abandoned land. I don't want to stay here any longer. I want to go to the wonderful world outside. I don't want to become a Genie either. I want to become a human and walk another path. That's because becoming a Genie means that I will never become a god. Only by cultivating the laws and the Great Dao and following the prescribed order can I become a god."
"How do you want me to help you?" Jiang Li asked.
"I'll give up everything and condense nine nomological laws for you. You can take away a bit of my inspiration." Genie said, "As long as I have a bit of inspiration, I'll cultivate again after I leave and transform into a human. Although I'm weak, I'll have endless hope."
"So that's how it is. You want to abandon your original body and only retain the most primitive memories so that I can bring your memories out and borrow my power to help you reincarnate into a human?" Jiang Li knew that these Chaos Beasts didn't have a good time in the abandoned land. They were just a group of wild beasts in a cage without freedom. Other than killing each other, they had to fight with the disciples of the Immortal Tower all day long. Such a life was indeed meaningless. The genie in front of him was indeed intelligent and understood this logic. Hence, he was eager to get out.
However, how could Jiang Li believe the Genie's side of the story? He was very cautious. "What you said makes sense, but how can I believe you?"
"Hahaha …" Genie laughed. "You have nothing to lose. I gave up my body to help you advance the nomological laws. You've gained a lot. To be honest, I should be the one who doesn't believe you."
"As a genie, you're full of tricks. What if you use magic to possess me when you give up your body? Wouldn't I fall for your trick? Once an existence like you gives up your body as a sacrifice or casts some evil magic, I definitely won't be able to resist it." Jiang Li knew all the evil methods.
"You're quite meticulous and watertight. However, I won't do that. You have the identity of a Star Field disciple of the Immortal Tower. Even if I possess you, I won't be able to hide it from the system. If I could do that, the Star Field of the Immortal Tower would have long been in chaos, "Genie said.
"Tell me your plan." Jiang Li felt that there was an opportunity in front of him.
"I'll use all my essence blood and spirit to cast a secret technique, the Art of Sacrifice. I'll sacrifice myself to help you. You should know how powerful this secret technique is. It's equivalent to me sacrificing myself to you. In the end, I'll leave behind my memories. You'll preserve my memories. Once we leave this abandoned land, build an altar for me and allow me to be reborn as a human. With your strength, you can definitely do it. You can use spiritual energy to create flesh and blood, inject memories, and cast the Flame Rebirth Technique. We genie have a special physique and can be reborn. Light a lamp and keep a life. "Genie explained her plan in detail.
"I still can't agree to this plan." Jiang Li shook his head.
"Why!" Genie was anxious. "This means that the initiative is in your hands. Are you still not satisfied?"
"It's because the initiative is in my hands that I feel it's inappropriate. Think about it, we just met and we're enemies. You suddenly want to help me advance and sacrifice yourself to help me. All you want is for me to bring you out. This is simply impossible. As a powerful being, no matter how much you desire freedom, you still have a basic brain." Jiang Li didn't believe anything Genie said at all. His tone was very calm. "And I believe in a truth. Cultivation has to be done step by step. I defeated you and absorbed your power. That's the right path. You sacrificed yourself to help me. Even if it's true, our karma is entangled. It doesn't benefit my cultivation at all."
"Hehe …" Hearing Jiang Li's words, Genie didn't get angry. Instead, she laughed. "I've misjudged you. You are very calm and know how to cultivate. Congratulations on escaping. My Art of Sacrifice can indeed increase your cultivation, but after you leave, the Art of Sacrifice will transform into you sacrificing yourself to help me. This is the transformation of Yin and Yang, so you've passed the test."
"What are you trying to say?" Jiang Li secretly raised his guard. This Devil Genie Ninelotus had actually revealed the truth of the matter. Clearly, this was the beginning of her plan to kill him.
"I'm saying that you barged into my territory and killed my race. Since you aren't willing to help me, then don't leave." Genie said, "I can only capture you and forcefully cast the Art of Sacrifice on your body. After you leave, you will automatically sacrifice yourself for me. This is two-fold."
"Then bring it on."
Jiang Li was already in his stance. He knew that without a bloody battle, he wouldn't be able to get what he wanted.
"Lantern Inheritance." Ninelotus suddenly turned into a human form. He was a middle-aged man with an ancient appearance. His skin was golden, and he wore a golden robe. He looked like the legendary Dipankara Buddha that had descended on the scene.
He waved his hand and a dense cluster of lanterns appeared, forming a formation. The genie flew over to control the lanterns and light shone everywhere.
Jiang Li's eyes were filled with golden light. He couldn't see anything and his body was burning like he was in a furnace.
This kind of great formation would definitely shock the heavens and earth and make ghosts and gods weep.
"Endless Divine Lamp!"
Genie Ninelotus let out a long roar again. It was a spiritual wave that caused landslides and tsunamis. The sky fell and the earth cracked. The lanterns spun and really formed a furnace.
Jiang Li immediately fell into danger.
However, he didn't panic in the face of danger. He prepared the Infinite Divine Fist and secretly condensed the ninth nomological law. The Infinite Creation punch aimed at the center and broke out.
The Infinite Creation contained infinite devouring and infinite Heaven Essence. This move had both the concentration of power and the pulling of power.
Bang, bang, bang …
A few genie were broken and devoured by him.
A loophole immediately appeared in the furnace formed by the endless lanterns. He used the Infinite Creation again and teleported out, escaping from the control.
This was the first time he fought a powerful opponent after he mastered the Infinite Creation. Sure enough, under the pressure of life and death, his Infinite Creation became more and more mysterious.
He kept moving around and killing other genie instead of fighting Genie Ninelotus. He knew that the current Genie Ninelotus wasn't someone he could contend against.
Only by killing other genie could he gradually master the ninth nomological law and become stronger and stronger.
"You actually want to engage in guerrilla warfare?" Ninelotus' body moved and flew up. With a grab in the air, a dazzling light suppressed Jiang Li, causing the surrounding spacetime to bind Jiang Li. Immediately, the air around Jiang Li's cultivation became sticky, and the space turned into a kind of gelatinous substance.
Jiang Li fell into it and couldn't move at all.
However, he still maintained his calm.
Woo, woo, woo.
Many sparks appeared on Ninelotus' body, and each spark was constantly exploding. Then, they turned into a starry sky and entangled him.
Jiang Li saw a star field. This star field seemed to be a magic lamp, shining brightly, and it had the aura of the Immortal Tower star field.
"In ancient times, in the 3D universe, there was a star field established by us, the Chaos Genie, but later on, this star field was destroyed by the Immortal Tower star field and the Brain of the Universe star field." Ninelotus said, "Originally, in the 3D universe, there were many holy lands. As one of the holy lands, we, the genie, were destroyed just like that. I can't accept it. I want to go out and find our ruins to restore our glory."
This Ninelotus' will was constantly attacking.
The Magic Lamp star field that he had developed was almost irresistible.
Jiang Li was so suppressed that he couldn't breathe. He never expected that the other party would have such a deep foundation.
In the universe, there was actually a Magic Lamp star field that the genie had built. He didn't know about it. The history he knew was that after the primal chaos split, there were only two ancient creatures that survived the great calamity. The first was the Immortal Tower star field, and the second was the Brain of the Universe star field.
He didn't expect there to be a third, but it was destroyed.
However, from the will of the Chaos Genie, Jiang Li felt that although the Magic Lamp star field had been destroyed, there were definitely ruins left behind.
This Ninelotus was anxious to go out and find ruins. Although he hadn't gone out before, it was very likely that he had obtained an ancient will inheritance. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so cunning.
"Come, let me take over your body. Let me raise your cultivation base. Let me reside in your body. Let me use your soul to achieve my greatness."
All of a sudden, Ninelotus turned into a stream of energy that wrapped around Jiang Li's body and began to seep into him.
Jiang Li, on the other hand, was neither happy nor sad, neither angry nor shocked. It was as if he let the raging fire burn his body, and it was also the raging fire that burned his body that allowed him to be reborn.
"Hehe, you know that I want to refine you, so you want to borrow my refinement to increase your cultivation base? That's not impossible, because it's useless for me to kill you. I have to use the Sacrifice Art on your body to get out. Then come, let me see if your soul or mine is firmer, "said Ninelotus.
