Chapter 644 Fool

The Celestial Palace was silent.All the young Celestials were stunned speechless by the scene before them.Three words echoed repeatedly in their minds.Impossible.No one could crush Che Wang in close combat.Because he was a born close-combat king!The power of the Unharmed Celestial was unbeatable.A rule-level power, without any consumption or weakness.All the force you exert on Che Wang would become his power.So, logically speaking, a mere ant from the mortal realm shouldn't even have the possibility of injuring Che Wang.But now, under everyone's watchful eyes, Che Wang was bleeding from a head wound. Although everyone knew Che Wang would grow stronger, his opponent, Li An, seemed to be getting stronger as well, his power and aura rising steadily, his condition appearing even better than Che Wang's!Why was this?Li An's explanation just now failed to satisfy them.The Way of the Fist.A path that could be said to have absolutely no research value.Who doesn't have fists? Who wouldn't use it?Compared to the unpredictable Dao of War, the Dao of Elements, and other mystical paths, the Dao of Fists is far too simple.So simple it doesn't deserve to be called a Dao, and no intelligent person would cultivate a pair of fists into their own Dao fruit.Yet Li An did just that.Whether in heaven or on earth, the powerful were all extremely confused, even heartbroken, upon learning of Li An's decision to pursue the Dao of Fists with no turning back.Because Li An's suffix is ​​the Dao of Heaven.Fists and Heaven are fundamentally two unrelated things.The value of a pair of fists can never match that of Heaven.Look at the Dao of the Ghost Lord, the Dao of Ghosts and Gods, ghosts and gods, encompassing all things; the combination of the two results in extremely high strength.Zhao Shaolong's Emperor Sword Dao, Bai Jianxin's Extreme Sword Dao, the Killing Asura Dao, the War God Dao—these are all perfect standard answers; if one can cultivate them, they will be stronger than those messy divine titles.Li An's "Heavenly Way of Fist" is a typical example of a chaotic and nonsensical divine status.Fist and Heaven are completely incompatible.Therefore, the people on Earth feel regret, while the powerful beings in Heaven mock him. Even now, Li An hasn't opened his Heavenly Way; he's merely using his fists to suppress the so-called King of Close Combat, the Unharmed God. People feel their worldview is crumbling.Was everyone wrong?During his fifty years of seclusion, Li An had perfected the techniques of the Way of Fist.One day, Shuangxue chatted with him, saying, "Later I saw many people practicing boxing, but none of them were as impressive as you."Li An was beaming with pride.Shuangxue, however, spoke very seriously: "It's not about appearance or temperament, it's more like a kind of...spirit.""Others' fists seem like just fists, but your fists give the feeling of more than just fists.""Especially after I cultivated the Observing Eye of the Immortal Path and looked at your fists, the feeling was even deeper.""There is a power I cannot describe within your clenched fists; I call it the true Way of the Fist."Li An was confused."There is an indescribable power in my fists?"Unable to understand, unable to explain, Shuangxue told him to write it down."Write down what you feel when you punch, and what your inner thoughts are. Write it down more, look at it more, and maybe you'll understand.""The strength of the Celestial Realm lies in its precision and simplicity in handling vague and complex matters, which exponentially increases the efficiency of cultivation.""If you want to advance further in the Way of the Fist, you must accurately understand what that is."Li An had punched his whole life, and now he felt like he didn't understand it at all.He began to investigate things, examining his own fists, and pondering why he practiced boxing, why he loved boxing, and why he thought about those things while boxing.Only after repeatedly reviewing his journey from the first to the fourth level of the Dao did he finally understand something.First Level: Li An firmly believed he could become the progenitor of the Dao of Boxing; at the moment his confidence soared, the Dao Fruit arrived.Second Level: When he began to doubt the true power of the Dao of Boxing, his confidence crumbled, but ultimately, at the moment he absorbed all the strength and proved an extraordinary boxing technique, he succeeded.Third Level: During the alliance with the world, Mr. Tianming spoke with him privately, telling him about his future path and responsibilities. When his fists were burdened with the responsibility of supporting the heavens, he accepted it calmly, and he reached the third level.Fourth Level: During his battle with the Underworld Emperor, he witnessed the terror of the Heavenly Realm for the first time, yet remained fearless, holding onto the belief in victory, and he succeeded.Li An grasped the key, the common thread of each Dao Fruit breakthrough—willpower.The will to become the progenitor of creation, the unwavering belief that the Way of the Fist could reach the heavens, the will to shoulder the responsibility of supporting the heavens, the will to face the gods without fear.But these words are still too complex.They must be refined further.What will drives me forward, to fight?My desired outcome is simple.Everyone (all the innocent who shouldn't have died) can safely weather this great calamity, can live to see the sunset of the future, and when that day arrives, the Way of the Fist, through its own power, will become a path of strength equal to all other great paths in the heavens.This is the outcome Li An desires, two wishes in total.He pondered deeply within the slow-motion time barrier.All the will within Li An's heart stemmed from these two grand aspirations.For his fists to stand above the heavens, he must defeat the gods of the other great paths.If he wants to bring peace, he must defeat all enemies in heaven and on earth.Unyielding? Courageous? Fearless?More than that.Something's missing.Wait.The answer may lie in the code name people use for Li An.Winning over all enemies signifies he is the strongest; defeating all the gods of the Dao with his fists signifies he possesses the strongest Dao.The strongest, the strongest Dao.These are the conditions required to fulfill these two grand ambitions.There is no equal to him, no such thing as "almost," just two words—the strongest.Heaven and earth, I alone am supreme—the Supreme!The answer to "What is my will?" is too long, too complex, so Li An chooses to work backward.What would happen if my will became reality?A Supreme!This is Li An's way of the fist, and what Shuangxue saw that differed from ordinary boxers.Possessing a supreme will is the root of Li An's powerful fists; it is a power that cannot be measured or explained.So when enemies above and below ask him, "Why are your fists so strong?" he no longer explains, responding with only two words!On the battlefield.The earth within a radius of ten thousand miles collapses.Li An stood with his foot on King Che's forehead, looking down at him.The disheveled King Che roared, "Why?!""Why are your fists stronger than mine?!"Li An looked at him calmly.Some things cannot be explained, even if you break them down and write a ten-thousand-word essay, it won't make a difference.Those who have lived in the Heavenly Palace since childhood, commanding the wind and rain, and have never experienced the hardships of the mortal world, will never understand how the will of a supreme being is forged.Therefore, his answer was concise."Fool."
