Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Damn!

Han Yu had expected some gap between him and Di Liuxin, but he didn’t expect it to be this vast.

Just based on the combat power Di Liuxin displayed, he’s probably not much better than Wu Tang.

Even if he’s fast, Di Liuxin doesn’t seem to be slow either.

Not to mention, this guy’s destructive power is just too overwhelming.

He witnessed with his own eyes the horrifying momentum as Di Liuxin stepped on that round moon, nearly filling the sky with sword intent, sweeping across ten miles of void. How can one avoid such a technique?

Perhaps he could endure it, but only if his life was hard enough.

If he opened the Dharma Aspect, he would probably die faster.

The biggest drawback of Senluo Myriad Forms is that if the Dharma Aspect is destroyed, the repair process would also impose a huge burden on Han Yu.

In the future, it might get better after the Five Elements balance out, or perhaps by directly choosing to annihilate the Dharma Aspect instead of forcing repairs.

But for now, it’s absolutely impossible; opening the Dharma Aspect would only hasten his death.

Even though the Phoenix Dance of Nine Heavens was fierce, it might not be as ruthless as the opponent!

The visible gap left Han Yu feeling a bit cold inside.

Soul Return had mentioned that there are still people higher up; is this really never-ending?

Han Yu smiled bitterly, wondering what kind of karma Central Continent had created to attract these people’s attention.

Sure enough, there were people above Di Liuxin. Just as he devoured Wu Tang’s sword intent, two ghostly figures descended from the sky as if out of nowhere.

Or rather, they flashed out from the array.

One of them, carrying a chilling aura, lunged straight at Di Liuxin’s back, while the other attacked from the flank.

The two-pronged attack happened when Di Liuxin hadn’t even reacted yet.

Boom!

A commotion larger than the previous one erupted, and the engulfing darkness turned the entire sky pitch black once more.

A middle-aged Daoist clad in a dark robe with an arrogant demeanor continued to sneer, standing beside an old man with a face full of wrinkles but a head of black hair, whose multicolored garments were filled with strange and absurd patterns.

The two exchanged smirks; they had been lying in ambush inside the array for quite some time. The last time, Di Liuxin had dug a pit for one of them, and it was only fitting for them to return the favor this time.

Yet before they could finish their smile, a glimmer of light appeared in the darkness. At first, just a wisp of radiance burst forth, which grew increasingly intense, blindingly dazzling in the end.

Di Liuxin’s form appeared somewhat disheveled, yet he wore a smile, with a hundred-zhang tall Dharma Aspect tightly encasing him.

At that critical moment, with a sense of intuition, Di Liuxin unleashed the Dharma Aspect he had never used before, firmly resisting the pair’s onslaught.

”This trick is too old, there’s really nothing new about it.”

Di Liuxin laughed coldly.

With his overseas ambush as a prelude, the Yama Hall still resorted to this tactic, practically a joke.

”The Hall Master of the Fourth Hall, Revolving Hall, Yuan Rong.”

Di Liuxin cast a cold glance at the gaudy old man, then turned to the arrogant middle-aged man, smirking.

”The Hall Master of the Third Hall, Punishment Hall, Wujiu.”

Three of the five upper hall masters have already descended; very good!

From within his Dharma Aspect, Di Liuxin let out a cold, long laugh, ”To send down both of you, it seems the Yama Hall is indeed anxious.”

This was undoubtedly his contribution; if it weren’t for his ruthless actions overseas and the grand scale of this engagement, pulling a few of them down would have been difficult.

Since three of the upper halls have descended, then...

”You maintain the array with only two left.”

This is indeed Yama Hall’s current biggest problem; none of the ones who descended are effective, otherwise, there wouldn’t have been a need for the upper hall members to come down personally.

Initially, developments were going well, but as things progressed, something went wrong. The Celestial Dao Sect, with just one move, reversed all the advantages gained before.

Their faces turned a uniform shade of iron blue, and Wujiu suddenly spoke in a cold tone, ”Killing you will solve that problem.”

Di Liuxin has descended to the Four Extremes Hall; as long as he is killed, the opponent will have to send someone down as well, leaving Celestial Dao Sect with two to maintain the array.

This is why they dared or were eager to descend two at once.

As long as they can kill Di Liuxin, forcing the Celestial Dao Sect to send someone down too, even if both sides gain an equal footing, Yama Hall’s prior arrangements don’t end up as the worst loss.

Just as the two were preparing to make their move, Di Liuxin acted first.

He performed incantation gestures skillfully, a look of triumph on his face.

”Since only two are left up there, I can begin too.”

The incantations continuously changed, and meanwhile, strange fluctuations emanated from the high platform, seemingly signaling the emergence of an even more overwhelming force.

”Heaven and Earth Inversion!”

With a soft shout from Di Liuxin, the light atop the platform suddenly intensified. Under the astonished gazes of everyone present, the light penetrated through the array, generating a massive force attempting to drag it downward.

”Damn it, you intend to pull down our setup!”

Yuan Rong’s face changed dramatically, his killing intent rising instantly.

They absolutely couldn’t allow him to succeed; if the array was pulled down, all the efforts by Yama Hall would go down the drain.

Wujiu had even acted before him, forcibly striking first. An Asura Dharma Aspect, a hundred-zhang tall, surged forth. Wujiu and the Asura Dharma Aspect attacked simultaneously, clashing head-on with Di Liuxin.

On the other side, Yuan Rong also summoned a fierce ghost Dharma Aspect, equally a hundred-zhang in size, his target, naturally, the high platform below.

”Here it comes!”

Chang Gen’s expression tightened as he spoke to Maitreya beside him. Both of them promptly manifested their Dharma Aspects, rocketing to twenty zhang before charging headlong at the opponent.

Han Yu grimaced at the back, thinking Chang Gen was insane to provoke someone a hundred zhang with just twenty.

Then, thinking deeply, given this guy’s moral standard, he doesn’t seem like someone who would risk his life. Back then, he even left Lu Yuan and ran away, and now he’s acting so bravely—there must be something fishy!

Is he pretending for that old man?

The more he thought, the more likely it seemed. Because Han Yu had already seen Yuan Rong slap two people away, sending them flying for several miles. Chang Gen was slightly better off, while Maitreya’s Dharma Aspect nearly collapsed.

There was no one around the platform, allowing free action. Yuan Rong barely dared to delay and launched a punch directly at the platform.

A trembling of heaven and earth ensued, and the already cracked ground around it split even further.

Han Yu, who had been hiding underground, was almost shaken out.

Originally wanting to curse, he was left dumbfounded by the next scene, not only him, but Yuan Rong was equally incredulous.

The platform was completely unharmed?

A full-force strike from a Divine Dao Realm master couldn’t even damage a platform?

”This isn’t an ordinary platform!”

He suddenly realized.

In mid-air, Di Liuxin, entangled with Wujiu, although fighting with great difficulty, still wore a mocking expression as he spoke.

”Yes! Everything is made from priceless treasures...”

What he referred to included not just the platform but also those numerous stone pillars outside the platform.

”You son of a...”

Yuan Rong almost couldn’t catch his breath. Anything considered a treasure by the Celestial Dao Sect would not be ordinary.

Material strong enough to withstand a Divine Dao Realm master’s attack surely isn’t mundane.

He too surveyed the densely packed surroundings, gasping.

Damn it, is the Celestial Dao Sect draining all its resources?

Using so much of it!

Wujiu, filled with urgency, couldn’t help but press on.

”No matter what it is, even the best things can be destroyed with time.”

They were already among the most powerful beings in the world; there were few things they couldn’t destroy, only that it might take some time.

As he attacked Di Liuxin, he sneered.

”You don’t think we can’t destroy it, do you?”

”No, I just need it to hold out long enough to destroy your array before it’s destroyed.”

Di Liuxin retorted, for even the best treasures have their use.

As long as the Yama Hall’s array could be destroyed, these things, no matter how precious, would be worth the sacrifice.

The battle between the two Dharma Aspects was exceptionally fierce, with each collision costing limbs, only for them to restore quickly.

The terrifying aftermath continued to spread.

Their attacks grew faster, and their Dharma Aspects almost blurred in the air.

After another clash, Di Liuxin retreated several miles, forming a new seal. The platform’s power suddenly became even more potent, visibly causing the array overhead to show signs of separation from its grindstone.

In moments, with a thundering roar, the array indeed separated from it.

”Hurry up!”

Wujiu, greatly changed in expression, urged from below.

Yuan Rong’s face tightened as he unleashed a furious barrage at the platform with his Dharma Aspect, deploying every technique he had. In an instant, it seemed impossible for anyone to stand near the platform. Everywhere else collapsed like doomsday, except the platform itself.

Before long, the whole ground, except for those stone pillars still standing tall, had been forced to collapse more than ten feet deep.

Han Yu even withdrew into the earth.

If he didn’t stay far enough, even this display of power would expose him.

With a sigh of relief, he was glad he hadn’t rashly tried to destroy it.

This thing was indeed a tough nut to crack, capable of withstanding a Divine Dao Realm master’s assault for so long.

”It must be more than just the material, those stone pillars likely have tricks as well.”

The Artifact Spirit’s keen senses immediately focused on the stone pillars.

Power continuously flowed from these densely packed items, gathering towards the platform.

This thing looked somewhat familiar.

In the next moment, it and Han Yu exclaimed in unison.

Sun Dial!

These things were so similar to the Sun Dial back then, as long as there’s power, they’re almost indestructible.

”So these stone pillars are also continually supplying the platform with power, making it unbreakable.”

Han Yu was having a moment of realization.

Damn rich dog, to have so much of this stuff.

Yuan Rong seemed to have realized the key, and in the next moment, he gave up on the platform and launched a frenzy against the stone pillars.

The entire meeting place was already unrecognizable. With earth-shaking tremors, the earth collapsed into deep ravines.

Finally, one by one, the stone pillars began to fall.

Above, Di Liuxin had just shaken off Wujiu’s entanglement and immediately formed a new seal with a cold gaze.

But this time, instead of targeting the platform, he chanted a spell.

”Golden Cicada returns...”
