The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Capítulo 2216: Chapter 2162–2163: The God Formation Returns, Gambling Duel

Any strong individual who has reached the present Realm, especially those who have established an immortal sect, are surely not simple, and would not act solely on whims without strategic planning.

Dayan True Monarch, who excels in the Array Formation, is certainly like this. Since he dared to send his disciple down the mountain to support the Great Ming Divine Dynasty and openly chose the Jade Emperor’s faction, it had to be after thorough deliberation.

Although there was a cause for coming down the mountain this time, if he didn’t have enough confidence, they would never act lightly, something many powerful beings understand.

Since it is clear that the opponent this time is a member of the Taoist Academy, preparations must have been made to face the Vice Institute Master Qingyang Zi of the Taoist Academy.

Qingyang Zi’s strength certainly surpasses that of the Great Instructor, possessing many Divine Abilities and skills from the True Martial Sect and the Taoist Academy; his prowess is indeed terrifying.

And having mental preparation to face such a strong opponent, without absolute certainty, Dayan True Monarch would surely not act.

Now, the opponent is someone else, definitely not as powerful as Qingyang Zi, hence many have high hopes for Dayan True Monarch.

“Tai Chi generates two elements, two elements derive Four Images…” With each strike of the wooden whip in Dayan True Monarch’s hand, the terrible force generated is enough to shatter the Void; upon closer inspection, his attacks are not random.

Every attack’s target possesses a mysterious position, and these points, when unintentionally linked together, form an Array; albeit not strong, accumulating gradually, it forms a gigantic Array.

This is precisely Dayan True Monarch’s most terrifying aspect; he has integrated the Array into all his attacks, every move being as natural as an Array itself.

At this moment, he has inadvertently laid down the Array’s base points, waiting for the final moment to link them into one, laying the foundation for the final victory.

However, since the Great Instructor dared to engage with him, naturally he too possesses his own abilities; if he couldn’t discover these points, neither Qingyang Taoist would allow him to emerge.

“Daily reflection!” The Great Instructor slowly spoke, gently tapping the ruler in his hand, not only blocking the opponent’s attack but also easily breaking the base points of the opponent’s Array.

The three-foot-long ruler, within a five-foot square, points the way to guide and teach.

“Hahaha, unexpectedly from within the Taoist Academy emerged a disciple of the Confucian school!” remarked a strong individual observing the clash between the two, laughing out loud.

The laughter is inevitable because the Great Instructor is using Confucian Divine Abilities in his performance.

Though the Taoist Academy encompasses various Divine Abilities and skills, advocating disregard for Buddhist, Taoist, Confucian, and Demon differentiation, as long as it benefits cultivation, anything goes.

Yet since the Great Instructor is a prominent figure of the Taoist Academy, and deploying Confucian Divine Abilities right from the start, many find it peculiar.

However, this is only the perspective of some strong individuals; to others, it counts for little, essentially insignificant.

“Strength is the essence; any Divine Ability or skill that enhances one’s combat capability is useful, regardless of its origin. Moreover, Confucianism is also one of the orthodox as well, so why can’t members of the Taoist School employ Confucian Divine Abilities?”

Divine Abilities transcend boundaries; as long as they are mastered in one’s possession, they belong to oneself.

As others have said, Divine Abilities and skills are beyond good and evil; if utilized correctly along the Righteous Path, even those labeled as sinister are not without merit.

“Although used is Confucian Divine Abilities, it must be said that it’s quite appropriate. It prevented Dayan True Monarch from setting up, thus denying him the opportunity for subsequent advantage accumulation,” commented a powerful being.

Many strong individuals have encountered Dayan True Monarch; not to mention his initial laying groundwork and later accumulation’s method, truly annoying.

Some strong individuals may not be unable to break this point; however, many things are not easily broken upon realization. One must remember that Dayan True Monarch is not weak, already struggling in hurried confrontations with his attacks, easily breaking his setup is not simple.

It must be known that this method, though seeming simple, is not easy to discover these base points.

If given enough time, they could naturally investigate; yet during engagements, when one’s attention is already significantly diverted, discovering the opponent’s setup hastily is difficult.

On the contrary, Confucian Divine Abilities effectively restrain it, using daily reflection to counteract the opponent, patching defects, thus easily probing the opponent’s setup foundation points, significantly decoding them.

In such a sequence, Dayan True Monarch’s setup foundation points served no purpose, being instantly decoded easily by the opponent, denying him further power accumulation.

This, indeed, causes discomfort to Dayan True Monarch, knowing this move is his forte, and usually a huge advantage in adversaries, generally unmatched.

Now, the Great Instructor decoded this point, surprisingly, because he hadn’t anticipated Confucian Divine Abilities having such an effective impact.

Nonetheless, as a strong individual traversing Realms of Heavenly Seas, his means surely go beyond this point; if it were just this, he wouldn’t hold his current reputation.

“The Taoist Academy’s Great Instructor, you are a worthy opponent deserving my regard,” Dayan True Monarch’s gaze sweeps over the other side, speaking slowly.
