Chapter 308: The Fist Move

Jue Zhan let out a sigh. Although he knew that he would surely die if he dashed out, he didn’t want to live like that anymore. Since he would have to die anyway, he felt that he might as well try to deal a blow to Mei Bashan. This way, he would at least have done a little to avenge his family, even if it was just one slap.

Just as he was about to dash out, he saw that Mei Bashan had been sent flying after a kick from Di Jiu. Actually, Mei Bashan was flying towards him.

How was this possible? Di Jiu had really managed to…

Jue Zhan knew that this was not the time for him to wonder how Di Jiu had managed to do this. Instead, he quickly drew out the dagger that Di Jiu had given him and focused all his Quintessential Essence on it.

To his shock, Mei Bashan discovered that he had not only been sent flying by Di Jiu’s kick, but he couldn’t even make himself stop flying.

This was not only because his Spiritual Force had been suppressed, which had caused his domain to not belong to him temporarily, but also because he was still affected by Di Jiu’s streak of spatial order.

He had to kill Di Jiu as soon as possible. Otherwise, there would be endless trouble in his future.

Mei Bashan heaved a sigh of relief as he was about to crash into Jue Zhan. He knew that the streak of spatial order in Di Jiu’s kick would be broken if an external force blocked it.

Jue Zhan was shocked by how powerful Di Jiu was. He had been supposed to help Di Jiu attack Mei Bashan on the sly. However, Di Jiu had sent Mei Bashan to him instead. He hadn’t even needed to dash out. He just needed to flash the dagger. This had to be the easiest kind of sneak attack in the Cultivation World.

The dagger wrapped in Jue Zhan’s Quintessential Essence pierced outwards.

Mei Bashan sensed a frightening killing intent lunging towards him as he was about to bump into Jue Zhan. He wanted to swerve, but he was still unable to break free from the streak of spatial order in Di Jiu’s kick.

Ice-cold killing intent shot into his back directly before a ball of frightening Quintessential Essence exploded.

Jue Zhan had betrayed him! This was not good. Mei Bashan immediately activated the death restriction in Jue Zhan’s body and moved sideways.

What shocked Mei Bashan was not that Jue Zhan remained unaffected after the restriction in him had been activated, but Jue Zhan’s dagger. That dagger had actually managed to pierce his armor, tear his spine and shatter his internal organs! Which class did it belong to?

After he spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood, he couldn’t contain his raging killing intent anymore. Even though his strength had been cut in half, he could still kill Di Jiu and Jue Zhan. He wondered when his lackey, Jue Zhan, had removed the restriction locking him down without being found out.

Although a scary killing aura loomed over Jue Zhan, he didn’t show any fear. His whole heart was filled with awe for Di Jiu’s kick, as well as the dagger that Di Jiu had given him. That dagger had actually been able to seriously hurt Mei Bashan.

Di Jiu definitely wouldn’t let go of this chance now that Jue Zhan had made a successful sneak attack. Before Mei Bashan could kill Jue Zhan, Di Jiu quickly rushed over. Over 6,000 saber weapons covered the entire space.

“This is a level-nine saber array!” said an expert sitting on the suspended level with a gasp. How powerful did Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force have to be to allow him to wield a level-nine saber array made entirely of supreme-grade Spirit Weapon Dharma treasures?

Everybody overlooked the fact that Jue Zhan had sneaked an attack on Mei Bashan and that Di Jiu had sent Mei Bashan flying with just one kick. Instead, they wondered whether they would survive if they had to face Di Jiu’s level-nine saber array.

Endless saber waves lapped over, frightening even Mei Bashan.

Suddenly, his killing intent and fury disappeared. Mei Bashan knew better than anyone else that he would die here that day if he couldn’t break Di Jiu’s saber array.

The fact that Di Jiu hadn’t executed this kind of powerful saber array right from the start, but had instead waited until he had completely fallen, showed that he wanted to destroy Mei Bashan.

Unfortunately, he was seriously injured, with no chance of nursing his injuries. Di Jiu definitely wouldn’t let him. Now, Mei Bashan regretted keeping Jue Zhan as a lackey when he had known that he was Jue Yueshao’s son.

He had set up a Principal Spirit and Blood Essence restriction on Jue Zhan. How had anyone managed to lift the restriction? Unless that person had a more powerful Spiritual Force than him…

He had a level-ten Spiritual Force. A Spiritual Force stronger than his would be…

When he linked this to the previous time his Yin Yang Gonfalon had been unable to invade Di Jiu’s space, he realized that it must have been Di Jiu. Mei Bashan didn’t dare finish that thought. That was an immortal-like Spiritual Force!

He couldn’t attack with his Yin Yang Gonfalon anymore. Two streaks of Yin Yang Gonfalon’s Qi shielded his body. Mei Bashan knew better than anybody that if this continued, it would mean more danger for him.

The level-nine saber array became increasingly frightening as it circulated. However, he was becoming increasingly weaker.

Bai Hong’s face turned pale as he stared at the sea of Saber Qi on the square. He hadn’t expected that Di Jiu would be so powerful.

However, he knew very well how powerful Mei Bashan was. Mei Bashan hadn’t become the Number One Expert in the True Dominion simply because he was two levels above him. In other words, even if he attained the ninth-stage Domain Realm, he wouldn’t be Mei Bashan’s match.

Now, Mei Bashan had been overpowered by Di Jiu. It was evident how powerful Di Jiu was, even though one could argue that Mei Bashan had been attacked sneakily. If Di Jiu’s strength was coupled with his saber array, Bai Hong was sure that he would be no match for him.

Once Mei Bashan was killed, then he…

Bai Hong was having an intense internal struggle. However, when he looked up and saw Huan Changzhu smiling sarcastically, he dropped the idea of saving Mei Bashan.

He was sure that Huan Changzhu would lash out to protect the True Dominion Genius if he dared to strike. Huan Changzhu would have all the right reasons to fight, whereas he wouldn’t.

While it was true that Huan Changzhu would not be able to kill him, there was another more frightening person—Di Jiu. If this continued, sooner or later, Di Jiu would be able to kill the already seriously-injured Mei Bashan.

How would he be able to survive after Di Jiu killed Mei Bashan?

Huan Changzhu was indeed staring at Bai Hong. If Bai Hong dared to make a move, he would kill Bai Hong in the name of protecting Di Jiu. Actually, he was just as shocked. Huan Changzhu didn’t think that Di Jiu would be able to kill him, even though he knew that he had to be wary of him. However, after witnessing Di Jiu’s display of strength, he doubted that Di Jiu would have any difficulty killing him.

Han Wushui cupped his fists tightly. He was secretly relieved that he had previously done Di Jiu a favor, even though he had risked offending Mei Bashan. After all, he had witnessed Di Jiu’s prowess before. Now that he saw Di Jiu take on Mei Bashan, he knew that he had still underestimated Di Jiu’s strength.

However, what made Han Wushui worry was that he had also underestimated Mei Bashan. Mei Bashan wouldn’t need more than a few moves to kill him.

Fortunately, Di Jiu had made use of Mei Bashan’s lackey to assassinate him. Otherwise, Di Jiu might have been killed by Mei Bashan that day. If Di Jiu had been killed, Han Wushui would have suffered as well.

Han Wushui shuddered at the thought. Di Jiu had indeed been meticulous if he had been able to anticipate such a battle between him and Mei Bashan. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have planted Mei Bashan’s lackey as an assassin. He was lucky that he had been able to survive after provoking Di Jiu.

Zhuo Changgeng also shuddered as he looked at Mei Bashan, who was being trapped within Di Jiu’s saber array. He had been thinking of killing Di Jiu to avenge his son, Zhuo Wencheng. However, he now realized that he would basically be sending the Zhuo Family to meet its doom.

Crack! Crack! Crack! The supreme-grade saber weapons in Di Jiu’s saber array were continuously being torn up by the Yin Yang Gonfalon’s Qi. However, every time he tore up a saber weapon in the array, he would be dealt a serious blow by another complementary saber weapon and his Yin Yang Gonfalon would weaken.

Despite this, Mei Bashan continued to destroy the saber weapons in Di Jiu’s Nine-Nine Constellation Large Array relentlessly. He was well-versed in Array Dao and knew that Di Jiu’s saber array would weaken each time a saber weapon was destroyed. He would be able to consume an elixir to help him recover from his injuries once he escaped from the saber array.

He would be able to kill Di Jiu as long as he could stomach this now.

Mei Bashan grew disappointed after half an hour. He had already destroyed nearly 100 supreme-grade saber weapons, but the Nine-Nine Constellation Large Array hadn’t weakened in any way. It had conversely grown stronger.

This could only be explained by the fact that Di Jiu had an extremely resilient Spiritual Force. He also had to have an endless supply of supreme-grade saber weapons.

Mei Bashan couldn’t ascertain how Di Jiu had acquired those supreme-grade saber weapons. However, he knew that he couldn’t delay this anymore.

Although the Yin Yang Gonfalon had been with him for countless years, he could only forsake it.

Suddenly, the Yin Yang Gonfalon, which had been torn to shreds by the Nine-Nine Constellation Large Array, exploded. It transformed into a boundless Yin Yang aura that encompassed the Heaven Earth Dao runes and had a majestic feel to it.

Di Jiu’s saber array slowed down amid the frightening Yin Yang aura and a passageway appeared within the saber array.

Di Jiu was shocked. Then, he realized that the problem didn’t lie with his saber array. Mei Bashan’s Yin Yang Gonfalon wasn’t too powerful either. It was his Quintessential Essence that was insufficient.

Mei Bashan dashed out through this passageway in a flash.

How could Di Jiu allow Mei Bashan to escape? He would definitely be killed if Mei Bashan escaped.

At almost the same time, Di Jiu entered the void, took a step and flung out a fist move.

This fist move, which had gathered all of Di Jiu’s Quintessential Essence and Spiritual Force, transformed into a stretch of Fist Mountain ranges.

The mountain peaks looked like roaring convergent waves. The first Fist Mountain tore up the domain that Mei Bashan had created in a hurry. The second Fist Mountain blasted into pieces the Quintessential Essence that had been protecting Mei Bashan. The third Fist Mountain boomed directly onto Mei Bashan’s body.

Everything within 10,000 miles was reduced to ashes by the Fist Mountains.

Bam! A bloody mist exploded into the sky. Mei Bashan’s body was reduced to a pulp as it floated in the sky.
