Chapter 522: One Saber Move, One Fist Move
The black-robed man’s expression changed. He had looked down upon the Immortal World, yet someone from such an inferior place had broken open the space created by his supernormal ability. If he hadn’t experienced this first-hand, he would definitely have treated this notion as a joke.
What was more, the saber flare of this weakling had locked onto all the space he could be in. This saber move seemed to utilize the spatial law of this entire world to its maximum capability.
Crack! A faint cracking sound was heard. The black-robed man was frightened out of his wits, for that was the sound of his domain cracking.
He had underestimated Di Jiu too much and the consequences were terrifying. His nomological talisman would most likely be shredded once his domain was torn apart. If this happened, there would be no need for Di Jiu to do anything, as the nomological aura of the universe would kill him.
A red flare shot out from the black-robed man, colliding with Di Jiu’s saber flare.
Boom! There was a violent explosion of Essence Energy. The surrounding Heaven Earth Essence Energy exploded and the space started to show signs of collapsing.
Regardless of whether they were severely injured or not, Zhou Bujian, Mo Louxue, Yue Wuliang, Fang Feilou, and Xie Wanling were all assaulted by the violent Heaven Earth Essence Energy, the sheer force causing them to hurl blood from their mouths. The only thing they could do at the moment was frantically retreat, lest their bodies would be shredded into pieces by the violent Essence Energy.
Everyone was wearing an odd expression. They could accept the strength they’d witnessed from the black-robed man since the man most likely came from a world of a higher plane.
However, Di Jiu…
Not only was he facing the black-robed man head-on, but he seemed to be winning. That was so… How long had it been since they had last seen Di Jiu? How was it possible that Di Jiu had become so strong?
Fang Feilou’s expression changed. His judgment, which he was so proud of, seemed to have been mistaken. Di Jiu was evidently winning.
However, how could this be possible?
Regardless of possibility, it had already happened before his eyes.
Bam! Di Jiu’s violent saber flare was split into two by the opponent’s red flare. As he was sent flying backwards, his chest seemed to get hit by a one-ton metal hammer.
Alarmed, Di Jiu realized that the man was simply too strong. At the same time, he had already discreetly activated the Confinement Killing Array he had set up earlier by using the nomological array flags.
“You are powerful…” intoned the black-robed man as he looked at Di Jiu. There was a flush on his face that quickly disappeared.
He seemed unmoved but he was actually shocked. Only he knew how bad of a state he was in. Although he had shattered Di Jiu’s saber attack, the nomological talisman he was carrying had emitted a faint cracking sound. Thus, he realized that he could no longer take part in this battle with Di Jiu. The Heaven Earth Law would pulverize him before Di Jiu could finish him off.
Di Jiu had no intention of letting the black-robed man off, even though the latter did not follow up with an attack. When he took a step forward, the Heavenly Aqua Saber in Di Jiu’s hand rumbled and the space surrounding the Demonic Clothing Mountain converged towards Di Jiu.
The black-robed man’s expression turned increasingly ugly as the aura of Di Jiu’s Heavenly Aqua Saber became stronger. While attempting to soften his tone, he cautioned, “I admit that I underestimated you. However, I suggest that you do not attack any more, or your Dao will cease to exist from this day on.”
Di Jiu replied coolly, “You don’t have to worry about what will happen to my Dao. Since you dared to harm my brother, you will die!”
“Stop! Unless you intend to stay in the Immortal World for the rest of your life, Lord Jiang will certainly kill you should you step into the Upper Realm before you can even spend a second there…” The black-robed man finally became frantic when he saw Di Jiu taking no heed of his threats.
Di Jiu seemed to not have heard him. His Heavenly Aqua Saber had already slashed down, creating an arc with a blue saber flare. This saber flare, which enveloped the man, seemed able to cut through anything.
It was the fourth saber move, the Order Severance Saber Move.
The black-robed man turned extremely pale. He had no choice but to swing his massive red pickax with a red flare. At the same time, he took out a talisman and activated it.
He had a look of immense terror and disbelief on his face as he held onto his pickax. He had discovered that this pickax of his possessed no supernormal ability or strength. In other words, the law of the supernormal ability of his pickax had been severed by Di Jiu’s saber move.
The Heaven Earth Law had been ripped apart…
Blood rushed to his face when he realized that Di Jiu most likely owned an epoch-making priceless treasure of Chaos. Otherwise, he would not have been able to directly cut through the law here and even make the law of his supernormal ability disappear. Saying that such a deed was heaven-defying would be an understatement.
He could not die here. He had already activated the talisman.
Di Jiu’s saber move ripped apart the law of the black-robed man’s supernormal ability. While charging forward, Di Jiu threw a punch in mid-air.
Gathering Peaks and Furious Waves… The target would disintegrate into nothing thanks to this fist move regardless of whether they stayed or left.
Boom!
The first Fist Mountain smashed against the black-robed man’s torso, the mountain condensing to the size of a fist as it punched through his chest. Blood exploded everywhere.
The black-robed man’s talisman was activated with a loud sound. The talisman Dao flare seemed to be blocked by something.
Terrified, he came to the realization that Di Jiu had already set up a Confinement Killing Array unbeknownst to him.
No matter how powerful he was, Di Jiu was a mere Immortal Emperor in the Immortal World. This was a very scary thought considering that Di Jiu was capable of such a feat.
Lord Jiang might not be able to accomplish such a feat… No, he would definitely not be able to accomplish it.
The black-robed man, who cared no longer about his life, started to burn copious amounts of his Life Energy.
Crack! The combination of the Dao talisman and his burning Life Energy finally allowed him to break open Di Jiu’s Confinement Killing Array. A pitch-black hole appeared in the void.
Bam! The second fist wind of the Gathering Peaks finally landed, slamming against the black-robed man’s arm and causing it to explode.
At that moment, the black-robed man entered the black hole and disappeared.
He had escaped! Di Jiu was extremely unhappy. With a lift of his hand, a ring landed on his palm. The aura on the ring clearly belonged to Zhangsun Huang, who had already sat up.
Di Jiu took out an elixir pill and fed it to Zhangsun Huang, throwing the ring to its owner as well. He inquired, “Who was that person? Why was he attacking you?”
Di Jiu was not too concerned about this, for he was certain that the black-robed man’s death was imminent. The Dao talisman the man was using should be used to rip open the plane to escape. Unfortunately, the Dao talisman had been blocked by Di Jiu’s nomological Confinement Killing Array, which meant that it would not be able to completely rip open the plane.
In other words, the furthest the black-robed man could escape to would be the void that existed between planes. Di Jiu’s Gathering Peaks had severely injured the black-robed man. Therefore, the black-robed man would still die even though he had successfully escaped into the void.
Even if he did not die, Di Jiu would still have the means to find him no matter where he went. The two fists of the Gathering Peaks Fist Move that had landed on the black-robed man had left some of the nomological aura of the supernormal ability on him.
That was not the end of it. Di Jiu suspected that the nomological talisman on the black-robed man had cracked. If that was true, there was no need for Di Jiu to take any action. The black-robed man would be pulverized by the Heaven Earth Law first.
The reason he did not pursue the man was because he still had some things to deal with.
“I had just left the Demonic Clothing Mountain’s mystic area when I was intercepted by the black-robed man. He severely injured Big Brother Black and snatched my ring.” Zhangsun Huang’s injuries were swiftly healing, as he had consumed the healing immortal pill Di Jiu had fed him.
“There is no need for you to leave. Are you the one who called the black-robed man here?” demanded Di Jiu as he stared at Xie Wanling, who was preparing to retreat.
Xie Wanling shuddered and remained silent. Fang Feilou, who was standing aside, shouted, “Brother Di, it is Xie Wanling who called that black-robed man here! He wanted to obtain the Supreme Chasm Dao Fruit in Zhangsun Huang’s ring. He was unable to deal with all of us, so he called that powerful expert here.”
