Bei Yingshu couldn’t be compared to Di Jiu and had yet to be healed from his injuries. At that moment, the terrifying degenerative Dao runes of the universe swept over. Every part of him was degenerating, and his physical body was about to collapse. However, Di Jiu was there. Even if his physical body degenerated, he would not run away.
“Hand over the Buddha Scroll of the Seven-Scroll Heavenly Book and I’ll let you off this once…” Weng Xing sounded very indifferent, as if it was normal that his divine power was crushing Di Jiu and Bei Yingshu. It would be strange if it was not.
Di Jiu chuckled and stepped forward. Then, he slashed with his Heavenly Aqua Saber. “I let you have the first move because I wanted to see this Great Calamity Art. It seems like nothing to me. It can’t even do anything to me.”
The Heavenly Aqua Saber swept up a saber screen. In an instant, Bei Yingshu felt the surrounding void become normal. That degenerative Dao rune aura that seemingly wanted to make his physical body collapse quickly disappeared.
Bei Yingshu stared blankly at the saber screen swept up in the void, feeling a little stunned. He had sought Di Jiu’s help because he knew Di Jiu was strong. Now, he knew that he was far from understanding Di Jiu, as he was stronger than he had imagined.
Crack! Weng Xing seemed to have heard a crack in his divine power law, which was simply too ridiculous. The Great Calamity Art was a divine power of a generation of apex experts, such as Dao Lord Fate. Weng Xing could not believe that this divine power law could be slashed apart with just one saber move. Even if there was such a possibility, it could definitely not happen now, but during a period of great unrest in the universe.
He had executed the Five-Degeneration divine power just now, which was derived from the Great Calamity Art.
However, the other party’s saber move could really tear apart his divine power law.
Weng Xing did not dare continue pretending to grab Di Jiu. Instead, he stepped back frantically. At the same time, he drew his Five-Degeneration Ruler, which turned into five mottled Dao runes.
Bam! Weng Xing’s figure was blocked by the domain in the void. Then, the Heavenly Aqua Saber swept over with saber flares that contained a deathly aura.
Boom! The experienced Weng Xing saved him once, allowing him to avoid injuries. The Five-Degeneration Ruler had torn apart Di Jiu’s domain, allowing Weng Xing to break free from his Heavenly Aqua Saber in time. He landed outside the killing aura and looked blankly at Di Jiu. Where had this guy come from? Why was he so powerful? He would have been an expert when Heaven and Earth had separated, let alone now.
“Not bad, long fingers. Your fighting skills are impressive. They are even richer than mine. In that case, take another saber move of mine…” When Di Jiu saw that he had not effectively wounded Weng Xing, he was very displeased. The Heavenly Aqua Saber once again swept up blue flares.
“Stop. You haven’t seen my Great Calamity Art. Why can you use your Order Severance divine power to tear the great divine power law of my Five-Degeneration power?” Weng Xing stared at Di Jiu, looking keen.
He knew very well that Di Jiu had used the Order Severance Saber Dao divine power. However, it had to capture the divine power law of the opponent. His Great Calamity Art had not appeared in the vast universe for a very long time. Therefore, when Weng Xing came out, he had already investigated this matter.
Since he had not used his Great Calamity Art divine power for a long time, this young man’s saber move defeated it.
Besides, before the other party could strike with his saber, the great divine Five-Degeneration power actually did not corrode his physical body. By the time he executed that move, this young man had been enveloped by the Five-Degeneration power. Hence, the divine power Dao law should have corroded him.
“Want to know?” Di Jiu said with a chuckle.
Weng Xing nodded his head. “I do.”
“In that case, take another saber move.”
It seemed that right before Di Jiu could speak, the Heavenly Aqua Saber had locked Weng Xing and slashed over. All distance and time disappeared, and the space stagnated because of the saber move.
Weng Xing, who seemed dominated by this saber move, watched in a daze as the saber flare swept over. He seemed to have seen all his life in that saber flare…
Was this an intent supernormal ability? No, that was not right. It was a time law divine power.
At this thought, the saber move landed in the area between his eyebrows. One’s life flew just like time…
He wanted to block this saber flare, but time had stagnated. Hence, he could not use his ruler because he could not block that short duration of life that flew like time.
Pfft! A red flare exploded, awakening Weng Xing in an instant. The time in the void became lively, and the Five-Degeneration Ruler vanished all of a sudden.
Crack! The Heavenly Aqua Saber was actually blocked deep within the area between Weng Xing’s eyebrows. The violent Divine Essence surged out, making a bloody hole erupt between Weng Xing’s eyebrows. Di Jiu clearly saw the Five-Degeneration Ruler enter deeply the spot between Weng Xing’s eyebrows.
After blocking the attack with the Five-Degeneration Ruler, Weng Xing landed far away. He stared at Di Jiu in horror and mumbled, “What a powerful time divine power.”
Di Jiu frowned slightly. If his time divine power was really powerful, Weng Xing wouldn’t have had the chance to run away and would have been torn apart by his saber move.
In fact, his time divine power had a flaw. When his Heaven’s Beyond tore the area between Weng Xing’s eyebrows, Weng Xing broke his time divine power and activated the Five-Degeneration Ruler in his Spiritual Sea, hence blocking his Heavenly Aqua Saber.
Although Weng Xing had a huge bloody hole in the area between his eyebrows, he had preserved his life and had only suffered some injuries in his Spiritual Sea.
“Your divine power is not bad. However, if you want to chase down my friend, take another saber move.” The Heavenly Aqua Saber swept toward Weng Xing again.
Knowing how powerful Di Jiu was, Weng Xing did not continue fighting with him. He instead moved his figure slightly and vanished.
Di Jiu took out a jade bottle and threw it to Bei Yingshu before he said, “Old Bei, wait for me at Heaven’s Beyond. If I don’t kill this guy, I won’t feel at ease. I’ll kill this bastard.”
While he said that, Di Jiu extended his figure and vanished in the direction that Weng Xing had left.
The danger of facing Weng Xing was really terrifying. Even though he had evaded him easily, in fact, that Five-Degeneration power could easily kill life on a whole planet. Such a divine power was more terrifying than the plague. If he had not had a body that surpassed a Sacred Body, he would have been wiped out by the other party’s divine power.
Once Weng Xing discovered his background and made a move in the Dao World or the Beyond of Heaven and Earth, a terrifying calamity would ensue. Furthermore, he needed to kill Weng Xing as soon as possible. Weng Xing’s strength was definitely not at the second step, yet he had been really terrifying. If Weng Xing reached the third step before Di Jiu reached Dao Integration, it would really be dangerous.
Another reason was that he had just injured Weng Xing with his saber move. As long as he chased after Weng Xing with the imprint of that saber move, he would catch the other party sooner or later. If he waited until the other party recuperated and thought of a way to wound him, that would not be easy.
Upon seeing Di Jiu chase after Weng Xing and leave, Bei Yingshu sighed. He sensed that even if he regained all his strength, he would still be inferior to Di Jiu and Weng Xing. If Weng Xing was so terrifying, how terrifying would Weng Xing’s master, Dao Lord Calamity, be?
Fortunately, Bei Yingshu had astonishing perseverance. He had survived after being trapped in the Dao Lord Valley for many years. Now, he was frightened of Weng Xing, which was not in his nature. Plus, so what if Weng Xing and his master, Dao Lord Calamity, were formidable? Brother Di Jiu was powerful as well. After all, Bei Yingshu had been a Dao Lord in the realm in the past. No matter how weak he was, he would not lose his fighting spirit.
At this thought, Bei Yingshu pulled himself together and rushed to the Beyond of Heaven and Earth. He was ready to recuperate there and attain the third step. At the same time, he would wait for Di Jiu’s return.
