#2298 - Battle of rules
Tang Sanzang and his four disciples looked ahead, frowning at the barrier they could sense but not perceive.
They then looked at Chu Hao, the power of the barrier was such that even the combined strength of the master and his disciples might not be enough to break it.
If anyone could break the barrier, it would only be Chu Hao, who had already entered the Earth Saint realm.
"This is not a barrier, but a rule," Chu Hao said at this moment, in fact, he had been exploring this mysterious power for the past three days.
Chu Hao had previously been able to sense a faint suppressing force, but even when he used the power of the Earth Saint and merged his spirit with the heavens and earth, he could not detect the source of the suppressing force.
In Chu Hao's view, there was only one possibility, and that was that this power did not belong to energy.
The power that can act on people and cannot be detected by divine sense is only the invisible and formless power of rules between heaven and earth.
"Rules!" Tang Sanzang and his disciples were greatly surprised. The power of rules was probably by no means comparable to any barrier; it was the original foundation of the world.
"It must be the work of the Western Heavens, trapping us here."
"The Western Heavens are too vicious. I will never let them get away with this."
"Immortal Chu Hao, can you break through this power of rules?"
Tang Sanzang and his disciples all looked angry as they asked Chu Hao.
"I can try," Chu Hao said, actually without much confidence, but the current situation left him no choice but to try.
To break the power of rules, ordinary spells and supernatural powers were simply impossible; no matter how powerful the supernatural power was, it could not resist the rules.
Only the same power of rules could contend with the rules, so Chu Hao had to use his power of rules.
"You all step back," Chu Hao said to Tang Sanzang and his disciples, the power of rules was too strong, and if it formed a collision, Tang Sanzang and the others might not be able to withstand the impact.
Tang Sanzang and Sun Wukong retreated a distance, standing outside the safe distance designated by Chu Hao.
Only then did Chu Hao begin to unleash his power of rules.
The understanding of the power of rules varied from person to person. Chu Hao's power of rules was the Rule of War.
The Rule of War was the most powerful of all rules. When the power of rules was unleashed, although invisible and formless, it could drive the rapid flow of energy between heaven and earth.
"Is this the power of rules? It's truly incomparably powerful."
"No wonder the Saint realm is an invincible existence. This power of rules is too shocking."
"I'm afraid this power of rules is enough to break a realm of heaven and earth."
Although Tang Sanzang and the others could not see what the rules were, they could get a glimpse of them just by the energy storm caused by the power of rules.
Energy rapidly circulated around Chu Hao, like a crazy whirlwind, the power of this energy whirlwind could grind everything that entered it into dust.
"War!" As Chu Hao uttered a word, the operation of the energy whirlwind immediately changed.
This was actually the rules in operation, but the rules were invisible, and the energy whirlwind could indirectly show the change in the power of rules.
With the word "War," Tang Sanzang and the others clearly felt that this space seemed to be filled with a strong fighting intent.
This fighting intent could even affect Tang Sanzang and the other three, making them want to pick up their weapons and fight bravely. Rules could affect people's minds.
This was actually because Chu Hao had asked them to retreat to a safe area. If Tang Sanzang and the others were still by Chu Hao's side at this time.
Then, even if they were not affected by the power of rules, their minds would become crazy and their thinking would be controlled by the rules under the influence of the power of rules.
In fact, what Tang Sanzang and the others could see or feel was only on the surface; they could not detect the confrontation of the power of rules at all.
At this time, Chu Hao's Rule of War was like thunder and fire, bravely moving forward, impacting the back of the boundary marker.
At the location of the boundary marker, there was also a power of rules like a mountain, forming an invisible barrier to prevent the impact of thunder and fire.
The space at the boundary marker formed ripples and folds as soon as the two powers of rules touched each other.
This was the rules. When moved, the space would be distorted. When reaching the extreme, it could change the color of the world, make the sun and moon dim, and even reverse the universe and shatter the void.
Bang bang bang bang… These were not the sounds formed by the confrontation of the power of rules. The rules were invisible and formless, and their confrontation was also invisible, and would not make a sound.
However, the confrontation of the power of rules caused the surrounding energy to collide, and this was the sound of energy bursting.
Although this energy burst was already very powerful, its power was still less than one percent of the rules' confrontation.
As the confrontation between the thunder-fire-like Rule of War and the mountain-like Rule of Zen became more and more intense, the heaven and earth in this area seemed to shake.
Tang Sanzang and the others unconsciously retreated a distance again, only able to watch Chu Hao from afar.
"Can boss break the power of rules?" Zhu Bajie couldn't help but ask.
"I see that the Western Heavens' design is not simple this time. Even Immortal Chu Hao has used all his strength."
"If my brother can't break it, then we may be in trouble."
"I hope Immortal Chu Hao can succeed."
Although Tang Sanzang and the others knew Chu Hao's strength, the Western Heavens had also invested heavily in this deployment.
As an old force that has existed for tens of millions of years, the Western Heavens' foundation is no less profound than the Heavenly Court's.
Even Chu Hao had already frowned at this time, because the Rule of War had impacted dozens of times, but it could not break through the barrier of the Rule of Zen.
Chu Hao was only an Earth Saint. Although the Rule of War was powerful, he was only an Earth Saint, and his control over the power of rules was far less than that of the Primordial Saints.
"Alas, I'm afraid I can't break it, and if it continues, I don't know if I can break through this Rule of Zen, but Diling County will be turned into ashes first," Chu Hao sighed, temporarily withdrawing the power of rules, and beckoned to Tang Sanzang and the others.
Tang Sanzang and the others walked over to Chu Hao's side, and seeing Chu Hao's appearance, they also knew the result.
"This rule was indeed set up by Tathagata, but I'm afraid he himself may not be able to forcibly break it, because this is not only the power of rules of Tathagata alone.
He probably gathered the power of ten thousand Buddhas from the past and present of the Western Heavens, and used the stones of Mount Ling as the foundation to turn Diling County into a prison."
Chu Hao said to Tang Sanzang and the others.
