Chapter 675: Who Will Emerge Victorious Remains To Be Seen

During the time when Ji Hongsen was severely injured and Gou Zibi left, both Wu Luo and Gou Zibi had attacked Ji Hongsen. In addition, Fan Yuan hollered, “Anyone who refuses to attack will not be allowed to leave with us later on!”

Everyone understood what Fan Yuan was implying. It would be a laughable notion to think that Di Jiu had not set up a trap at the exit of the eight-trigram array pattern given how arrogant Di Jiu had been previously.

This did not cause much concern, however, for Di Jiu could not possibly match so many Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperors if they combined forces.

Ji Hongsen was currently severely injured. Also, he had plotted against them and intended to sacrifice all the Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperors there. No one wanted to let go of such a precious opportunity under the circumstances.

Ji Hongsen knew that he was in grave danger. There was no doubt about it. Thus, he did not bother putting the array disc away, choosing instead to turn away with the intention of leaving.

However, before he could activate the talisman, Wu Luo had locked onto him by using the other man’s black net. Simultaneously, Fan Yuan threw out a huge black tablet with a circumference of several hundred feet. Ji Hongsen’s domain was no match for the force exerted by the huge tablet, as it shattered immediately.

A feeling of despair overwhelmed Ji Hongsen, who knew that he could have escaped if he hadn’t gotten injured. Now, escaping was virtually an impossible feat.

Since he could not escape, he would fight to his death.

With this thought in mind, Ji Hongsen took no heed of Wu Luo’s and Fan Yuan’s attacks this time. Instead, his domain locked onto the few mid-stage Primordial Chaos cultivators. His Divine Essence then lifted the huge seal and threw it at these cultivators.

Boom! Pew!

As soon as Ji Hongsen’s huge seal landed, the stone tablet slammed against him from above, creating an explosion of blood. The huge seal wiped away two mid-stage Primordial Chaos cultivators, eradicating even their Principal Spirits. Ma Jujia, a Sacred Emperor from the Sea Clan, barely managed to survive by relying on a top-notch defense Dharma treasure. He only sustained serious injuries.

Given everything that had happened, Ma Jujia’s first reaction was not to seize the loot but to immediately leave the attack range of both Wu Luo and Fan Yuan. After all, his cultivation level was the lowest and he was also severely injured. He had nothing to rely on to seize anything.

10 people had come in, but only three remained.

“Daoist Fan, Daoist Ma, how do we split the rings of Ji Hongsen and the two other cultivators?” Wu Luo chose to not do anything either, even though he knew that there should be a large amount of quality items inside Ji Hongsen’s ring.

The current situation was very delicate. Although Ma Jujia possessed the weakest cultivation and was injured, he was the key that could and would affect the outcome of this entire situation.

Both Wu Luo and Fan Yuan were at the late-stage Primordial Chaos Realm. Whichever side Ma Jujia chose to stand on, the other side would be in slightly more danger.

Fan Yuan cupped his fists and said, “Daoist Wu, you can hold onto Ji Hongsen’s ring. Daoist Ma and I will hold onto the other two rings. How does that sound?’

Wu Luo was delighted, as it was understood that Ji Hongsen’s ring was the most valuable out of the three. He had yet to speak when Ma Jujia spoke up. “My cultivation level is the lowest, so I will not take any rings.”

Wu Luo instantly laughed. “I will take Ji Hongsen’s ring then. Daoist Ma can take the other two.”

Fan Yuan was a late-stage Primordial Chaos cultivator like him. Therefore, Wu Luo dared not belittle him.

“That works too.” Fan Yuan picked up the two rings of the mid-stage Primordial Chaos cultivators without hesitation. He also put away Ji Hongsen’s level-nine Divine Array disc.

Wu Luo’s heart throbbed in pain as he thought about the value of that level-nine Divine Array disc. He had originally wanted to claim it was Ji Hongsen’s belonging and then take it away. There was nothing he could say now that Fan Yuan had taken it away instead. After all, he had taken Ji Hongsen’s ring, so it would not be good if he demanded to have that array disc.

Fan Yuan sneered silently when he saw Wu Luo put Ji Hongsen’s ring away. The chicken had come home to roost.

Wu Luo put the ring away and said happily, “Daoist Fan, I wanted to kill that Di fellow for a long time. I am certain that he set up a Confinement Killing Array outside. Let the three of us attack together. I will not take it to heart even if he has set up a level-six Confinement Killing Divine Array.”

“Daoist Wu, are you a level-six Divine Array King?” inquired Fan Yuan as he looked at Wu Luo in astonishment.

Wu Luo chuckled as he replied, “I’m a level-five Divine Array King. I have yet to reach level six, but I am not afraid of level-six Divine Arrays.”

Upon hearing that, Fan Yuan wondered if he was being too cautious by letting Wu Luo take Ji Hongsen’s ring. In his opinion, Di Jiu could at most set up a level-six Confinement Killing Divine Array, regardless of how formidable he was. There was a high probability that Di Jiu would be able to kill them with the help of a level-six Confinement Killing Divine Array. Now, however, the presence of Wu Luo, who was a level-five Divine Array King, implied that they had no reason to be wary of Di Jiu.

Fan Yuan started to regret this a little. Nevertheless, he laughed and replied, “In that case, we shall do what you suggested. Di Jiu will have to bow down to our prowess, considering that there are three of us here. Daoist Wu’s Array Dao standards should also be taken into consideration.”

They had previously not been afraid of Di Jiu setting up a Confinement Killing Array outside, as there had been nine of them in total. It would be impossible for Di Jiu to confine all of them by himself. The situation had unexpectedly changed drastically mid-way. Ten of them had come in, but only three of them had survived and left.

…

Di Jiu put the two Five-Element Flags away. He had already used four flags to upgrade his Confinement Killing Array to a level-seven Divine Array, which was above average in terms of formidability.

Di Jiu had originally planned to trap six and let the rest go. However, he had failed to predict that only three would come after Gou Zibi left.

Wu Luo was someone he had to kill. As for Fan Yuan, he could not have a good impression of Di Jiu and would most likely not let Di Jiu off if he knew that he had killed Jin Chengxun from the Demon Clan. The last person, Ma Jujia, who was at the mid-stage Primordial Chaos Realm, was someone Di Jiu was not concerned about.

But where had the other three gone? Ji Hongsen had disappeared, and so had two other mid-stage Primordial Chaos Realm cultivators.

Di Jiu decided to worry about that later, after he trapped the three people before him.

“We can’t advance any further. This should be the entrance of the confinement array he set up.” Wu Luo stopped in his tracks.

Di Jiu, who was speechless, started taking out several dozens of array flags without hesitation as the nomological array flags rearranged themselves. He would not have dared to set up a Confinement Killing Array to block the path of a group of Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperors if that had been the extent of his Array Dao capabilities.

The surrounding space instantly changed and started exuding an oppressive aura. The Spiritual Forces of both Wu Luo and Fan Yuan were heavily oppressed.

Fan Yuan’s expression changed. His Array Dao was weaker than that of Wu Luo, but he possessed great knowledge. They had been outside of Di Jiu’s Confinement Killing Array while Wu Luo had spoken, but they must have entered its range now. Plus, he sensed that Di Jiu’s Confinement Killing Array was most likely more powerful than a level-six Confinement Killing Divine Array.

Wu Luo was alarmed too. He suddenly had a foreboding feeling, for he had discovered that this Confinement Killing Divine Array was at level seven and not level six. One had to have a very clear comprehension of space laws to accomplish what Di Jiu had done.

How had Di Jiu managed to set up a level-seven Confinement Killing Divine Array? This should be impossible.

Fan Yuan knew that his guess was correct the moment he saw Wu Luo’s expression. Wu Luo’s Array Dao might be at the level-five Divine Array King, but he was still inferior to Di Jiu.

When he thought of that, Fan Yuan took a step forward without hesitation, distancing himself from Wu Luo. He then called out, “Daoist Di Jiu, I have always respected you! Why did you confine me in this array?”

Di Jiu ignored Fan Yuan’s words and asked, “Where is Ji Hongsen?”

This time, before Fan Yuan could reply, Ma Jujia hastily dashed up ahead and replied, “Ji Hongsen wanted to use our blood to sacrifice the Green Lotus, so we killed him.”

“Who is holding onto Ji Hongsen’s ring?” asked Di Jiu in a cool tone. He was not afraid of three Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperors, but it wouldn’t be easy for him to kill Wu Luo while confining the three of them. If any of them self-exploded recklessly, then he would not be able to kill Wu Luo.

Fan Yuan rejoiced silently when he heard this question. He had expected it. “Daoist Di, Wu Luo has the ring.”

Wu Luo’s heart sank when he heard Fan Yuan’s admission while he was attempting to analyze the Dharma Array he was confined in. He finally understood why Fan Yuan had chosen not to take Ji Hongsen’s ring.
