In a short time, the area where the battle was occurring was filled with nomological chaos and explosive Divine Essence. The Strangulation Divine Array was successfully broken by the four cultivators, but Di Jiu managed to rebuild it after killing the white-robed cultivator in time.

This was the benefit of using a nomological array flag: It could rebuild a complete Dharma Array in the shortest time so long as Di Jiu could still control his intent.

As a result, the spectating crowd only knew that the battle was intense but was not aware of the outcome. Nevertheless, everyone present was very impressed by Di Jius ability to hold on so far against the attacks of four third-step experts.

Brother Zuo, this person killed Hua Yu and Fei Feng simply by relying on the Strangulation Divine Array. He could be using the Heaven Earth Laws to construct Dharma Arrays. We could still kill him if we worked together. The handsome male cultivator with the spear looked at the fat cultivator.

Di Jiu did not take any action, as the two cultivators did not either. The Quintessential Essence of the Universe rapidly healed his injuries as he continuously made nomological array flags.

He was not afraid of four people, much less now that there were only two left.

To Di Jius astonishment, the fatty called Brother Zuo hesitated. Upon seeing this, Di Jiu immediately said, Brother Zuo, youll have no future if you continue staying here. You will only be able to hide in a corner to cultivate at best. What kind of benefits will you gain by helping these people block my path? If my guess is correct, you will get nothing from the loot even if I am killed. You will gain my friendship if you do not stand in my way. I will not hold the previous events against you and I will bring you along when I leave.

You know how to leave the Dao Abyss? The fatty looked at Di Jiu in surprise.

Di Jiu felt puzzled. Did these people really have no way of leaving the Dao Abyss?

However, this thought flashed past for a short moment. Then, Di Jiu said arrogantly, No place that can confine me has ever existed. If you want to, I promise to take you away with me. My word is as true as the laws of the universe.

Think carefully, Brother Zuo. If you dared to betray the Sacred Lord, what would the consequences be? Furthermore, after this man is killed, the Void Mountain will belong to you. The rest will be distributed later, the handsome cultivator immediately informed him when he saw that the fatty was moved by Di Jius words.

Before the handsome cultivator could stop speaking, Di Jiu snickered and said, What bullsh*t Sacred Lord are you referring to? I have already killed two third-step cultivators here. He can come and have a go at me if he dares to. He he Youre a third-step expert, yet you are being suppressed by a Sacred Lord. Why do I want to become a third-step cultivator like you? We cultivate the Dao to seek the secrets of the universe and the freedom to wander the universe.

Youre right, Daoist Di. This man is called Leng Yaoli The fatty spoke up immediately.

Before he could finish his sentence, however, Leng Yaoli s figure flickered and faded. Evidently, he knew that he alone would be no match for Di Jiu. Even if he could hold his own, he would still have to pay attention to the fat traitor.

Di Jiu sneered. Leng Yaoli was overestimating himself if he thought that he could escape from Di Jiu. Di Jiu did not bother opening his Dao eye. Instead, he took out the Heaven-Opening Writing Brush and wrote the word realm.

The Heaven-Opening Writing Brush created a painting domain, and a realm sealed its scenery! Everything under the influence of the word realm became meaningless.

Boom! Leng Yaoli slammed against the edge of the word realm and recoiled. Before he could make another attempt, Di Jiu had landed in front of him and sealed all escape routes.

Rest assured. I promise that you will not be able to leave this square, Di Jiu said coldly. He would be dissatisfied if he failed to kill Leng Yaoli, who had almost successfully finished him.

So do I. Fat Zuo Zhongren stood behind Leng Yaoli.

Leng Yaolis expression turned ugly. He grunted and looked at Zuo Zhongren while saying, Zuo Zhongren, do you think that your fate would be nice if you killed me today?

Ha ha ha ha! Zuo Zhongren burst into manic laughter. I have been waiting for this day for a long time. Daoist Di will give me hope.

Everyone says that I am scheming, but I think that this description fits you better, Zuo Zhongren. The four of us surrounded this man, and you did not use your full strength at first. If you had used it during your second attack, the ending would have been different. Leng Yaoli had come to the realization that Zuo Zhongren was the best actor out of all of them. It was clear now that Zuo Zhongren had not used his full strength during his two attacks against Di Jiu.

Everyone had been tricked by his honest appearance. This man was hiding his true self very deeply.

Di Jiu realized that as well. He had thought that there was a chance to turn the tides when he had previously seen the fatty hesitate. He had not expected that the man would not even use his full strength in the first place. If Di Jiu was killed, it would be a well-deserved death. Di Jiu would have attacked and killed the fatty and Leng Yaoli if he could. Now, it seemed that everything he had said to the fatty was a joke.

Regardless of why Zuo Zhongren had done such a thing, Di Jiu had realized that the real fool was always the person who treated others like fools.

Zuo Zhongren did not bother speaking up, choosing instead to look at Di Jiu. Clearly, he wanted to work with Di Jiu to eliminate Leng Yaoli.

Daoist Di, I will follow you as well if youre willing to let me off this time. Leng Yaoli knew that saying anything else would be meaningless. Besides, he would not be able to escape from Di Jiu successfully.

After all, Di Jiu owned the Void Mountain and the Heaven-Opening Writing Brush. He had been telling the truth when hed said that he owned two Connate treasures.

Di Jiu snorted. The Heaven-Opening Writing Brush extended until it became 10,000 feet long and drew the huge word death in the air.

This word swept up a boundless death Dao rune aura, oppressing Leng Yaoli and causing him to have difficulty breathing. The surroundings took on a grayish hue. Leng Yaoli now knew that Di Jiu had decided to kill him.

Leng Yaoli let out a shriek while the Cold-Moon Spear in his hand transformed into beams of cold crescent moon flares that shot out.

Boom! The spear aura landed on the Dao runes of Di Jius death word. The laws in the air emitted a cracking sound, and the Heaven Earth Laws became extremely chaotic.

The floating death word Dao runes instantly became blurry. Di Jiu was shocked by how powerful the mans Spear Dao was. Now that it had eliminated the possibility of being attacked from behind, Di Jius Heavenly Aqua Saber swept up a saber screen wave and locked onto Leng Yaoli. He had his own means of individually dealing with Leng Yaoli.

However, before Di Jiu could execute his killing move, a giant hammer easily crushed Leng Yaolis defensive domain and landed on his back.

Di Jiu, who wanted to use the Heavenly Aqua Sabers supernormal ability, changed his mind instantly. Instead, he took out the Heaven-Opening Writing Brush. The death word Dao runes, which had almost completely dissipated, condensed once more. Meanwhile, the powerful death aura oppressed Leng Yaoli and locked onto him.

Leng Yaoli knew that Zuo Zhongren, who was behind him, had ulterior motives, so he had always been wary of him. However, he was unable to evade or stop the latters actions under the suppression of Di Jius death word.

Bam! The giant hammer landed on Leng Yaolis back. He did not possess a physical body as strong as Di Jiu, so his body immediately caved in. His Principal Spirit seeped out a little before being wiped out completely.

Di Jiu did not take any further action. Simply by seeing Zuo Zhongrens hammer move, he knew that the former had been telling the truth and had not used his full strength when attacking Di Jiu.

Daoist Di, I would like to thank you. If it hadnt been for you, I might still have been trapped here for an unknown number of years. You gave me back my freedom Zuo Zhongren told Di Jiu sincerely and respectfully as he cupped his fists before the latter. After killing Leng Yaoli, he did not appear to be proud of it.

Di Jiu currently had a good grasp of Zuo Zhongrens character. This fatty looked upright and honest but was not someone that should be underestimated. Di Jiu dared not accept the fattys gratitude. He thus cupped his fists in return and said, Were merely helping each other out. May I know who exactly that Sacred Lord is?
