Chapter 858: The Heaven-Opening Mantra vs. the Primeval Finger
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
At a glance, Di Jiu knew that Jing Xihua was no match for that man. Jing Xihua did not seem to have attained the late-stage Dao Integration Realm, and his injuries had yet to completely recover as well. How could he possibly be able to fight in that state?
Before the two of them could start fighting, Di Jiu walked out.
“Head, this bastard destroyed our restaurant’s signboard. I attempted reasoning with him, but he suddenly attacked me.” Lightning complained in tears when it saw Di Jiu.
Everyone, including the spectators and the burly man, immediately looked at Di Jiu.
Lightning seemed to be very respected there, but the truth was that everyone was wary of the level-eight Defense Array in that place and the person Lightning called Head, who was behind the Mountain Gaze Restaurant.
After all, anyone who could open up a restaurant in the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone and set up a level-eight Divine Defense Array would not be simple. Many cultivators came to the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone, but no one had seen this expert. Since Di Jiu had finally come out, he naturally became the center of attention, as everyone wanted to know just how powerful this Head was.
The person who paid the most attention to him was Jing Xihua, who was disappointed when he saw Di Jiu. The reason he had forked out the valuable Five-Element Chaos Qi to hide there was not because he was rich in any sense of the word, but because he believed that someone capable of such things could not possibly be ordinary. He had gone there in search of one thing only: protection.
Now, it seemed that his judgment had been wrong. Based on the Dao rune fluctuations emitted from Di Jiu, Di Jiu most certainly had yet to attain the Primordial Chaos Realm and could even be a Primordial Dao cultivator. Jing Xihua understood why Di Jiu had only come out now and had let Lightning take charge: It was because Di Jiu was too weak.
Since Di Jiu had nowhere to hide now, he’d had no choice but to come out. How could he not when someone was trying to demolish his store?
“You are the manager here?” the burly man asked coolly as he looked at Di Jiu. In truth, he was just as disappointed, for he had also thought that the restaurant and the Divine Defense Array had been built by an expert. In the end, however, it had turned out to be a mere Primordial Chaos weakling.
Di Jiu asked calmly, “Have I offended you before? Do I owe you any divine crystals or Dao pills? Did I seize your cave abode in the past?”
“No,” replied the burly man curtly.
If he had been wary of Di Jiu, he might have explained that Di Jiu had protected his enemy by letting them stay at the hotel. However, upon seeing Di Jiu’s cultivation level, he could not be bothered to explain.
Di Jiu nodded. “In that case, I’m relieved.”
Then, Di Jiu slashed down with his Heavenly Aqua Saber, extending his domain simultaneously.
Crack! The burly man felt his domain shattering and then sensed the aura of death.
How could this be possible? Di Jiu was evidently only a Primordial Chaos weakling, so how could this person’s domain tear his domain apart? He had yet to exert his full strength but he was at the perfected Dao Integration Realm. Once, he had even been an exceptional expert who had attained the third step.
His third step was completely different from that of an average cultivator. He had truly sensed his own Dao runes before he had attained the third step. In other words, he was already considered the strongest amongst all third-step experts.
In a haste, the burly man used his full strength and extended his finger to attack.
Crack! Di Jiu’s domain was shattered by the force of this finger, which seemed to encompass the entire universe. Even his Order Severance supernormal ability failed to find any nomological trace at that moment. As a result, he was completely unable to use any supernormal ability or its laws.
This finger, which seemed to come from an ancient time, was ripping apart all laws, the universe, and even all the life aura.
This was the first time Di Jiu had felt the threat of death since he had attained the second step.
The Dao runes of Di Jiu’s Heavenly Aqua Saber suddenly stopped moving, as a huge brush had appeared in the air. This brush spelled out numerous Dao runes that danced in the air as though they had a life of their own. These Dao runes formed the word ‘death’.
The day and night clash, so death can happen in an instant!
Die when I want you to!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Violent Dao rune Divine Essence clashed, shattering even Di Jiu’s supreme-grade cave abodes into pieces. The cultivators spectating from a distance were swept away by the shockwaves. Those with weaker cultivation levels were cut into two, whereas those with stronger ones were thrown backward.
Bam! This finger collided with Di Jiu’s ‘death’ word, whose Dao runes instantly disintegrated.
Unfortunately, the finger failed to disintegrate as well and the remaining runes slammed against Di Jiu’s chest.
Bam! A bloody print appeared on Di Jiu’s chest, the churning aura almost causing Di Jiu to cough out blood. He was shocked by how frightening that finger’s supernormal ability was. While it was true that he had just learned the Heaven-Opening Mantra supernormal ability and its strength was limited by his cultivation level, this finger’s supernormal ability was the most terrifying supernormal ability he had seen so far.
What exactly was that finger move?
Di Jiu’s shock could not be compared to the shock of the burly man. The latter stared at Di Jiu dumbly, for this was the very first time he had witnessed someone of a lower cultivation level successfully blocking the Primeval Void-Breaking Finger.
That ‘death’ word was truly terrifying. If Di Jiu’s cultivation level had been stronger, the roles would have been reversed.
This was not what shocked him the most, however. It was the fact that Di Jiu was fine despite enduring an attack from the Primeval Void-Breaking Finger. What kind of body was that? Even a Sacred Body could not possibly be so powerful.
“Who are you exactly?” The burly man took a deep breath and did not launch another attack. Based on that strength, it was clear that Di Jiu was no ordinary cultivator.
Di Jiu bellowed in laughter, throwing out nomological array flags continuously. He slashed down with the Heavenly Aqua Saber again as the Heaven-Opening Writing Brush continued to accumulate Dao rune strength in mid-air.
“You caused trouble at my restaurant and destroyed my signboard, yet you are asking who I am. Eat this saber first!” Di Jiu did not care that his opponent was slightly stronger than him. It was only when he fought with such people that he derived great joy and was able to improve.
There was no reason to cut the battle short when Di Jiu enjoyed it.
Jing Xihua, who was thrown to the side by the impact of the collision, sucked in a deep breath. He was so powerful!
As expected, someone who could open up a restaurant in the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone could not possibly be ordinary. His guess had been correct. This young man, who was a self-proclaimed Head, was simply too powerful. Jing Xihua knew very well just how formidable that burly man was. The reason he was able to escape was not because of his strength but because he used his brains.
It was truly laughable that he had previously thought that Di Jiu was a paper tiger who dared not come out.
“Stop! This fight between us is meaningless, as it will not reach a conclusion!” hollered the burly man anxiously. He knew very well that Di Jiu was not afraid of his Primeval Void-Breaking Finger, and there was nothing he could do about it.
Di Jiu seemed to not have heard him. The Heavenly Aqua Saber transformed into a boundless killing aura before locking onto the burly man. Then, it slashed down with the intent of splitting this entire void into two.
