Chapter 479 - I Want to See Both Guild Masters First
With the loss of the Thunder Emperor, the remaining people could only be considered nothing. They did not have the ability to rip apart Di Jiu’s level-nine Strangulation Immortal Array.
Di Jiu sat on the ground and swallowed numerous elixir pills. He had been very seriously injured by the Thunder Emperor earlier. He still had to recuperate after killing the Thunder Emperor with all his might, even though he had the most top-notch immortal pills and cultivation techniques.
Half an hour passed before Di Jiu stood up once again. He constructed dozens of array flags again to set up one Mist Immortal Array to obstruct the Spiritual Force. He broke through the Strangulation Immortal Array and the Heavenly Aqua Saber in his hands created saber scars.
Three Immortal Emperors who were lightly injured and three Immortal Emperors who were heavily injured could only try to resist while facing Di Jiu and his level-nine Strangulation Immortal Array. Before they could leave any light injuries on Di Jiu, they were all killed by him.
Di Jiu only put away the rings after killing all these people and did not go out immediately. He grabbed the wood-element supreme-grade immortal meridian and continued recuperating. He also set up an isolated Spiritual Force Dharma Array for recuperation.
His injuries were somewhat serious and if there was another person like the Thunder Emperor, he would not be able to save Qu Hen and Chen Zishun. He could only flee like Zhong Ao.
…
Li Lei had brought six Immortal Emperors to confine Di Jiu in the conference hall. Everyone knew what the people who wanted to kill Di Jiu were thinking. All the Immortal Emperors who came out of the hall could only wait for the outcome outside.
A violent rumble could be heard constantly during the huge battle while the Thunder Saber Move ripped apart the entire hall. Everyone increasingly looked up to Di Jiu’s toughness.
The way Di Jiu carried his saber, nobody would think that the 10,000-feet Thunder Saber Move was coming from him. Li Lei was the thunder-element cultivator, so everyone believed that this was definitely Li Lei’s trump card.
Even an idiot would know that Di Jiu had come out alone after killing seven people, including the Thunder Emperor.
Someone recalled that 10,000-feet0long Thunder Saber Move when he saw the Heavenly Aqua Saber behind Di Jiu. They had previously thought the Thunder Saber Move had come from the Thunder Emperor, but now they knew the truth.
“Daoist Di Jiu, where is the Thunder Emperor?” Tie Beishan had the highest cultivation level around. The Thunder Emperor had gone missing, so he immediately asked Di Jiu with cupped fists about him.
Di Jiu replied softly, “He has been killed by me.”
Everyone went silent. Even though they could have guessed this outcome, they were all shocked in that peaceful space. The Thunder Emperor had been killed? Everyone would have thought this was an insult to the Thunder Emperor if it had been said earlier.
No matter how impressive Di Jiu was, he was only a ninth-stage Immortal Emperor at most. The Thunder Emperor had indeed broken through and become a ninth-stage Immortal Emperor many years ago and also had the thunder-element Spirit Root. Before he could even battle with the Thunder Emperor, he would have to suffer endless thunder streaks.
There were six other Immortal Emperors beside the Thunder Emperor at the time, but what about Di Jiu? He only had an immortal beast companion that had not reached level nine yet.
Tie Beishan could only sigh. Even though he knew it would be better to say nothing for now, he still said, “Alchemy Emperor Di, the Thunder Emperor had a bad temper. Now, there’s one less person during the Beast Tide…”
Di Jiu replied coldly, “You mean that Li Lei wants to kill me and I can only wait to be captured and killed?”
Tie Beishan did not want to speak up for the Thunder Emperor at all. However, he wanted to become the best in the Thunder Court Immortal Continent now and replace the Thunder Emperor, so he had to step forward and say something. If Di Jiu’s strength was not too terrifying, he might kill the other party and claim victory for the Thunder Court Immortal Continent.
Upon seeing that Di Jiu looked unfriendly, an old man standing aside hurriedly went up and said, “Let bygones be bygones. Sect Master Shan, Alchemy Emperor Di, the Thunder Court Immortal Continent is being swept by the Beast Tide now. We should find a place to discuss how to deal with that. I’m afraid the Defense Array outside isn’t going to last any longer.”
Tie Beishan, who had not originally stood up for Li Lei, immediately extricated himself. “That’s right, that’s right. We should be attaching more importance to the Thunder Court Immortal Continent’s safety…”
Di Jiu said faintly, “As far as the Thunder Court Immortal Continent’s Beast Tide is concerned, wait until I’ve met the two Guild Masters of the Gigantic Tripod Elixir Association.”
Shan Xing stepped forward excitedly. He had wanted to get rid of Li Lei to take revenge for Yong Zuocheng. It was a pity that his strength was too weak and he was not a match for Li Lei whatsoever. He felt more carefree now that Di Jiu had gotten rid of Li Lei. “Alchemy Emperor Di, I’m certain that both Guild Masters are kept in the Thunder Yang Sect. We can find them as long as we head over.”
“Let’s go to the Thunder Yang Sect to discuss the Beast Tide in that case,” Tie Beishan said casually. He wanted to use this chance to get rid of that sect.
Di Jiu shot a cold gaze at Tie Beishan and naturally knew what he intended to do. He still wanted to break the Thunder Yang Sect’s Defense Array, even though he was aware that Tie Beishan was exploiting him.
