Chapter 307 - The Kick
Chapter 307: The Kick
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Teleportation Array was already open when Di Jiu reached the exit of the Evil Beast Valley. He didn’t see the rest of the cultivators, so he thought that he had come later than the others.
In actual fact, amongst all those who had ever taken the test trial in the Evil Beast Valley, Di Jiu was the only one who had reached its deepest part. Most geniuses would remain near the entrance to wait for their chance. Only a handful of top-notch geniuses would venture into the middle-portion, purely for the sake of looking for the Illusionary Beast.
Then, Di Jiu stepped into the Teleportation Array and got teleported back to the Immortal Ascension Square.
Di Jiu scanned the area with his Spiritual Force the minute he landed on the Immortal Ascension Square. Less than 200 people out of the 500 that had gone in had made it out alive. The survival rate was less than 40%.
When Di Jiu realized that Xian Ze had been nailed onto the Array Formation Screen, he flew into a rage. It felt as if somebody had splashed oil onto him, setting off a huge fire in his heart.
Fortunately, Xian Ze had not been killed. The other party was probably waiting for Di Jiu to appear before killing him.
Di Jiu immediately rushed over and helped Xian Ze get down as he waved four array flags.
“It was Mei Bashan…” said Xian Ze feebly. Di Jiu nodded his head. “Please help me take care of him first,” he told the surprised An Xiaoqi, who was standing beside him.
It only took Di Jiu a few moments to save Xian Ze after exiting the valley. Everybody on the suspended level was surprised that he had managed to do so.
However, Di Jiu didn’t feel happy. He knew that he had to depend on Jue Zhan if he wanted to escape death that day.
Only one thing would result from his battle with Mei Bashan. He would either die, or Mei Bashan would. Mei Bashan had already locked up the entire space in the Immortal Ascension City. Thus, he couldn’t escape, regardless of how powerful his Spiritual Force escape technique was. Besides, he didn’t want to escape. If he did, Xian Ze would die a worse death.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The saber aura of the Wind-Rustling Move and the saber waves of the Split-Wave Saber Move banged hard against Mei Bashan’s Yin Yang Gonfalon’s Qi. A deafening explosion was heard before Quintessential Essence made the Defense Arrays around the Immortal Ascension Square shake. A few of the weakest cultivators were sent flying off as they vomited blood.
Crack! Suddenly, Di Jiu felt his saber waves, which had been raging forward, become weaker against the Yin Yang Gonfalon’s Qi. The saber waves were disrupted while the saber aura dissipated. They didn’t form any saber ripples that could threaten Mei Bashan.
How formidable! Di Jiu could only think of this word to describe Mei Bashan’s Yin Yang Gonfalon’s Qi. After it tore up the Wind-Rustling Move and the Split-Wave Saber Move, it locked in on Di Jiu’s body, both on the left and on the right.
Even though the Yin Yang Gonfalon’s Qi had weakened after two saber moves from Di Jiu, the two streaks of Yin and Yang aura still cut into Di Jiu’s body and caused two bloody mists to spurt from Di Jiu.
What Di Jiu should have done was leave. However, he chose to put up with the pain as his body got ripped apart by the Yin Yang Gonfalon’s Qi and dashed towards Mei Bashan.
Mei Bashan shrieked in surprise but immediately came to a realization. “You have an immortal-like Tempered Body! No wonder that you dared act so arrogantly in the True Dominion. However, you have to kneel down before me even if you have an immortal-like Tempered Body…”
Mei Bashan’s Yin Yang Gonfalon didn’t cut Di Jiu into three like he had expected it to. However, he didn’t mind. He entered Di Jiu’s Domain as he smiled hideously.
When he executed the Yin Yang Gonfalon again, the space froze up once more. Suddenly, Mei Bashan felt that something was not quite right.
Logically speaking, Di Jiu shouldn’t have had any ability to resist after he’d cast the Yin Yang Gonfalon over the entire space. He shouldn’t have had the ability to retaliate, even if he was a Domain Realm Cultivator.
However, Di Jiu had actually managed to fight back with two saber moves. He had even taken one more step forward, even though he had been seriously injured by the Yin Yang Gonfalon’s Qi. This was hardly normal.
It was impossible unless Di Jiu had a more powerful Spiritual Force than him. He already had a level-ten Spiritual Force. Nobody else in the Cultivation World could possibly have a more powerful Spiritual Force than him.
Mei Bashan quickly dispelled his doubts. His priority now was to restrain Di Jiu. Suddenly, he found out yet again that the space over-casted by his Yin Yang Gonfalon hadn’t managed to restrain Di Jiu.
Di Jiu had to have a level-eleven Spiritual Force. It looked like he hadn’t only mastered the Spiritual Force escape technique. He also possessed a top-notch Spiritual Force tempering technique. Mei Bashan believed that Di Jiu was keeping a huge secret.
Jue Zhan, who had been watching the battle from behind Mei Bashan’s back, was anxious. He doubted that Di Jiu had exaggerated about the fact that nobody outside of the Immortal World could possibly tolerate a kick from him. Right now, Di Jiu had no means of executing a kick in Mei Bashan’s domain. Instead, he had been overpowered.
Jue Zhan had almost given up hope when he saw Di Jiu spurt out the two bloody mists thanks to Mei Bashan’s Yin Yang Gonfalon’s Qi.
He knew very well that Di Jiu was not to be blamed for this. Mei Bashan was too powerful. Even a Domain Realm Cultivator wouldn’t have been able to kick Mei Bashan, let alone send him flying.
…
The killing aura within the space over-casted by the Yin Yang Gonfalon gathered once again. Suddenly, Mei Bashan saw Di Jiu kick out with his leg in his direction.
Mei Bashan laughed coldly. Di Jiu must have been overly confident and ignorant if he had tried to kick him instead of trying to escape from the Yin Yang Gonfalon.
It was no wonder that he had dared to kill his son, Mei Zhiyun. This man was totally oblivious! Zhiyun was unlucky enough to run into him.
Mei Bashan had thought that Di Jiu’s kick was a joke. However, his expression became grim when Di Jiu executed this kick.
Although the space was under the control of his Yin Yang Gonfalon, he had nowhere to hide from Di Jiu’s kick.
“It’s the spatial order…” said Mei Bashan as he took in a breath of cold air. His scalp went numb. It frightened him to realize that Di Jiu had come into contact with the spatial order.
The killing intent of the Yin Yang Gonfalon diminished tremendously and the Yin Yang space started to dissipate as well.
Bam! Mei Bashan could only stare as Di Jiu kicked against his chest. A frightening force was emanated from the Quintessential Essence and Spiritual Force. Mei Bashan couldn’t tolerate such a kick, even though he was wearing armor.
A blood-arrow that contained internal organs shot out. Mei Bashan was sent flying by Di Jiu’s kick.
