Chapter 890: You’re Very Strong

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When the black-robed cultivator’s Principal Spirit was eradicated by Di Jiu, the white-robed cultivator screamed, “He killed Fei Feng with the saber array! He’s injured as well. Don’t let him get away!”

The other three people took out their Dharma treasures and attacked Di Jiu in a frenzy.

Di Jiu consumed numerous Dao pills while taking out several dozens of array flags and scattering them around. The Confinement Killing Divine Array was activated, and then Di Jiu took out his Void Mountain as well.

The instant the Confinement Killing Divine Array trapped the three opponents, the Void Mountain transformed into a huge mountain that slammed into the fat cultivator’s hammers. Di Jiu knew that this entrapment would only last for a very short moment. Therefore, he needed to make use of this short span of time to eliminate one of them. This time, he targeted the white-robed cultivator.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Crack! When the Strangulation Divine Array and the opponent’s Dharma treasure came into contact, there was an explosion of Divine Essence. Then, the Strangulation Divine Array started to collapse. At the same time, Di Jiu’s Void Mountain clashed with the fat cultivator’s hammers.

Perhaps, the opponents had disregarded Di Jiu at the start, but they now viewed him as their equal. If this had been a one-on-one fight, he would have been stronger than them.

Di Jiu’s Heavenly Aqua Saber locked onto the white-robed cultivator for the second time before executing the Order Severance Saber Move.

The white-robed cultivator sneered. His twin cymbals transformed into two streaks of light that slammed against Di Jiu’s chest in the shape of a cross.

A crazed look appeared in the white-robed cultivator’s eyes as Di Jiu’s saber move approached him. He had realized that Di Jiu was not an ordinary cultivator the moment Di Jiu had killed Fei Feng.

As a result, he wanted to injure Di Jiu even if he suffered a casualty as well. At most, he would only suffer severe injuries, as he assumed that the body of a young expert like Di Jiu could not possibly be strong. Once the twin cymbals’ supernormal ability hit Di Jiu, Di Jiu might only be left with a Principal Spirit.

Then, Di Jiu would not be able to survive in the Dao Abyss. Besides, he had already seen Di Jiu’s Saber Dao supernormal ability before. He admitted that it was indeed impressive, but it should not be so impressive that his physical body would disintegrate.

Therefore, he chose not to evade after seeing Di Jiu’s saber screen lock onto him. Instead, he intended to go all out and trade an injury for an injury and a life for a life.

According to his plan, the saber aura locked onto him would automatically disintegrate once Di Jiu attempted to block his twin cymbals. Then, he could work with the other two to deal a deadly blow on Di Jiu. After all, Di Jiu’s Strangulation Divine Array would only last for an extremely short time. Di Jiu would be giving up on his advantage upon choosing not to face him head-on.

No matter how powerful the man was, only death would await Di Jiu once the array was proven useless or Di Jiu chose to face him head-on.

In the white-robed cultivator’s opinion, Di Jiu was intelligent and would give up on such a reckless fighting method.

Di Jiu was delighted when he saw that the white-robed cultivator had not avoided his Heavenly Aqua Saber’s supernormal ability. This suited Di Jiu very well.

Previously, after using the Heaven-Opening Writing Brush to lock onto the black-robed cultivator, Di Jiu had managed to kill him in a short time, as he had been injured during the exchange. The Heaven-Opening Writing Brush only appeared for a split second under the cover of the Strangulation Divine Array and saber array. Hence, Di Jiu was certain that the other three people could not have known that he possessed a treasure like this, much less that it was the Heaven-Opening Writing Brush.

Di Jiu had decided to write out the word ‘death’ by using the brush to kill the white-robed cultivator. All he needed to do was first rip apart the latter’s supernormal ability law by using his Order Severance Saber Move.

Now that the cultivator was seeking death himself by choosing to face Di Jiu head-on, Di Jiu would not stand on ceremony. Rather than taking out the Heaven-Opening Writing Brush, he executed the Crevice Traverse Saber Move.

Crack! The nomological supernormal ability broke apart. The white-robed cultivator’s eyes turned bloodshot, for he now knew that he had fallen into Di Jiu’s trap. The Saber Move executed by the cultivator was not one that could kill him but an Order Severance Saber Move that ripped apart his twin cymbals’ supernormal ability laws. Since his twin cymbals’ supernormal ability laws had been ripped apart, it would not cause Di Jiu significant damage even if the twin cymbals were to land on Di Jiu’s body.

“He has the...” Before the white-robed cultivator could finish his sentence, Di Jiu’s Crevice Traverse Saber Move bypassed space and time, landing on the white-robed cultivator’s forehead.

The white-robed cultivator watched in terror as the saber screen pierced his forehead. He felt immense regret. In truth, there was a small window of opportunity to escape the moment his supernormal ability laws were ripped apart. However, before he could truly escape, Di Jiu used the nomological supernormal time ability to stop him. If only he was a little quicker... just a little more...

Pew! Pew! Two blood fountains sprouted out. Although he had ripped apart the white-robed cultivator’s supernormal ability, his chest was still split open by the twin cymbals, revealing his bones.

On the other hand, the white-robed cultivator despaired. His forehead had been pierced by the Heavenly Aqua Saber, and his Principal Spirit was unable to escape due to the presence of the Strangulation Divine Array.

Boom! Boom! Boom! A terrifying explosion wreaked havoc within the Strangulation Divine Array. The Void Mountain and the huge hammer clashed, causing violent Divine Essence to explode from the Strangulation Divine Array.

Di Jiu opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. Before he could feel relieved that his Void Mountain had managed to block the fatty’s hammers, pain emanated behind him.

Then, his bones, his organs, and even his meridians started to completely fall to pieces.

Di Jiu knew that someone had schemed against him while he had been doing the same to the white-robed cultivator. The culprit was the fella who had hit him with a spear move earlier. That fella was the most handsome one but also the most cunning one.

Di Jiu was certain that this fella had not exerted his full strength with his previous spear move, which was why Di Jiu had underestimated him.

Based on the strength of the first spear move, he would at most be able to rip apart Di Jiu’s Defense Array before merely injuring his body. However, this spear move could take his life. If Di Jiu did not possess the Quintessential Essence of the Universe, he would have escaped as far away as he could, or his death would have been imminent.

Di Jiu had yet to consume the Quintessential Essence of the Universe, as he was anticipating what would come next. However, he could not hold on any longer so he consumed one drop of Quintessential Essence of the Universe. As his injuries swiftly healed, Di Jiu put his Heavenly Aqua Saber away and stepped on the white-robed cultivator’s corpse. Then, he looked coldly at the handsome man and the spear in his hand that had injured him twice.

“You... actually killed Hua Yu and Fei Feng...” The fat cultivator, who had originally looked carefree, stared at Di Jiu as if he had seen a ghost.

What did the fact that Di Jiu had managed to accomplish that despite being surrounded by the four of them signify? Di Jiu was truly terrifying, even though he had relied on the concealed Strangulation Divine Array.

Di Jiu glanced at the fat cultivator coolly. “If you still have some wisdom in you, you won’t help others with no benefits at the risk of death.”

The fat cultivator was too stunned to retaliate verbally.

After he said that, Di Jiu ignored the fat cultivator and continued staring at the man with the spear. “You are the most cunning fella I’ve ever seen. You could have severely injured me with that first spear move, yet you chose to exert your full strength at this crucial moment. In fact, you could have killed me with that second spear move. However, you wanted to make use of me to kill the black-robed man you had a grudge against.”

The handsome male cultivator’s hand trembled a little as he replied faintly, “You’re not bad yourself. After all, you survived that spear move. I believe that, the Quintessential Essence of the Universe you consumed aside, your body has surpassed the Sacred Body stage. Otherwise, my spear move should have killed you off. No one had survived my spear until now, which makes me really certain of my hypothesis. You’re very strong, for you’re the second cultivator I’ve met with a body that has surpassed the Sacred Body stage.”
