Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Golden Cicada in three strides had already gone a hundred miles away, saying the strongest of both sides on the battlefield now were at their last gasp would not be an exaggeration.

It could be said that this battle was fought with extreme brutality.

The Yama Hall lost two Hall Masters from the Upper Five Halls, while the Celestial Dao Sect hadn’t yet seen major losses in strong figures, but their arrangements had been destroyed.

Only they knew in their hearts if this was a loss or not.

They had lost everything!

Di Liuxin’s heart was bleeding, especially with Golden Cicada having escaped.

This time around, he didn’t even know how he and Jiang Xinyuan would explain upon return.

Indeed, the Heavenly Dao did interfere, but ultimately the issue lay in their own hands.

It wasn’t that he feared reprimand from the two seniors; everyone in the Four Extremes Hall shared the same status. What he feared was accountability from that one person.

The one they called Master.

Equally troubled was Jiang Xinyuan; he hadn’t expected so many changes to a plan that should have proceeded to the end without a hitch.

To find themselves in this situation was something he hadn’t anticipated in the least.

If this setup were to fail completely, then not only would the Celestial Dao Sect have worked hard for nothing, but they fear being mocked to death by the Yama Hall.

So, when Golden Cicada suddenly appeared on the battlefield, both of their expressions instantly brightened.

Thank goodness, there was still a chance to salvage things.

Di Liuxin breathed a slight sigh of relief and said to himself.

As long as Golden Cicada returned, then the Celestial Dao Sect hadn’t lost.

”It seems it’s you who lost.”

Di Liuxin smiled with extreme joy, by this point, any cultivation of serenity was out the window.

It’s no wonder the old sage always claimed this path wasn’t suitable for them.

Innate ruthlessness versus intentionally shedding off all emotions and desires, how can those be the same?

The expressions of Wujiu and Jiu You were as disgusted as if they had swallowed a fly.

Damn it, does it ever end, constant turnarounds, is there yet another bastard who hasn’t shown their move, might as well reveal it all!

Even at this Realm, one feels mentally exhausted!

”Golden Cicada, quickly swallow the Array!”

Di Liuxin couldn’t help but give the order out loud.

Unexpectedly, it went unusually smoothly this time, so smoothly that Di Liuxin was halfway through with the Finger Technique when Golden Cicada had already leaped onto the Array alone.

The sound of cicadas resonated, the crowd focused solely on the Array’s safety, completely unaware that these cicada cries had long since changed.

When Golden Cicada’s Dharma Aspect reappeared, Di Liuxin even briefly showed a look of secret delight, while Wujiu and Jiu You looked as if mourning the dead.

Ultimately a move short of victory.

Both couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts, overwhelmed with dissatisfaction.

But soon, Di Liuxin couldn’t smile anymore, even Jiang Xinyuan showed an unpleasant expression.

With crisp explosions, the formless Array suddenly shook as if it had become tangible.

But this wasn’t the focus of everyone’s attention, the main point was that the Golden Cicada’s Dharma Aspect wasn’t absorbing power, but rather destroying the Array!

The massive mouthpiece kept pecking down, the first crack in the Array’s edge gradually appeared, with light constantly leaking from within.

Golden Cicada didn’t pause for a moment, twisting its Dharma Aspect’s head to find a second position to continue pecking.

”Stop!”

This shout was issued by four people simultaneously.

For the Celestial Dao Sect, the Yama Hall’s Array still had great use for them, the entire layout was intended for taking up residence, for possession.

If they wanted destruction, why go to such great effort, they could have simply let Golden Cicada destroy it from the start!

For Yama Hall, whether Golden Cicada was absorbing or destroying, it was unacceptable to them, naturally, they wouldn’t sit by idly.

The speed of Golden Cicada’s Dharma Aspect was extremely fast, and soon the second crack was taking form.

Di Liuxin couldn’t hold back and quickly gestured, but after fiddling with the Finger Technique for quite a while, there was not the slightest response from Golden Cicada.

”Damn it!”

Furious, he urgently pointed, a powerful force burst forth, striking the Dharma Aspect, instantly penetrating through to pierce Golden Cicada in the chest.

But even so, Golden Cicada’s Dharma Aspect didn’t pause for a moment, after the third crack rapidly formed, all four chose to cease fighting, turning against Golden Cicada’s Dharma Aspect to knock it off the Array.

One attack after another bombarded the Array, then through the Array, hitting the Dharma Aspect.

Golden Cicada’s form swayed, its six legs gripping the Array tightly, the six wings at its back fluttering rapidly, determined to stay secured on the Array and unwilling to leave.

Massive spits of blood continued to flow, Golden Cicada’s face becoming paler, yet its actions never stopped.

The fourth crack formed!

”Golden Cicada, don’t force me to kill you.”

Di Liuxin was now speaking with intense murderous intent.

”Kill him! At this point, he’s useless.”

Jiang Xinyuan cast a particularly unpleasant look at the Array with four cracks.

This damn thing might not work even if repaired, and furthermore, how would one go about repairing it?

In an instant, both made their moves, blending their vast Spiritual Power, sweeping across like a tidal wave, intending to slay him.

Wujiu and Jiu You also made their moves simultaneously, overwhelmed with joy.

Given they were about to eliminate their own piece, it was then advantageous for them either way, the two exchanged a glance and chose to strike, each delivering a full-force attack.

Thus four attacks converged simultaneously.

”Damn!”

Han Yu couldn’t help but curse aloud, that old bastard Zhi Sou, intentionally sent people to their deaths.

Under these circumstances, Golden Cicada was sure to perish; he couldn’t even save him if he wanted to.

Even he couldn’t say with certainty he could survive such an extent of attack.

”So that’s why he told you not to come along, yet you still insisted on coming.”
