Chapter 84

Two figures slowly emerged from the void, stepping into the air, their auras stirring.

"Guangchengzi, Chijizi? The two of you, instead of assisting the Human Emperor, have come to intercept me. What for?" Ding Yue saw it was these two and his expression returned to calm as he spoke slowly.

Guangchengzi's eyes flickered, and he smiled slightly, saying, "Master, this time my fellow disciple and I have come precisely for the matter of the Human Emperor."

"Oh?"

Ding Yue's lips curled slightly in a barely noticeable sneer. He looked at Guangchengzi and Chijizi, his eyes moving, and he smiled.

This made Guangchengzi and Chijizi feel a bit uneasy. Their eyes met, and Guangchengzi said, "Not long ago, the Human Emperor Chiyou was defeated and retreated to the capital. The reason for this defeat was that Chiyou set up a great cloud and mist array on the battlefield, which the Human Emperor's army could not break, forcing them to retreat."

Ding Yue had long anticipated the battle between Xuanyuan and Chiyou. The witch tribe's combat strength was formidable, and Xuanyuan found it hard to resist, even with the full support of the Chantiao Sect.

"With the divine powers of the Chantiao Sect's fellow Daoists, breaking this array should not be difficult, right?" Ding Yue smiled and said slowly.

Guangchengzi and Chijizi's expressions paused, a hint of embarrassment flashing across their faces.

It was laughable that the two great witches, Fengbo and Yushi, of the Chiyou army, who were at the level of Dalu, had never shown up. At most, they had a witch tribe army assisting, but they still had a significant advantage over Xuanyuan's army.

The Chantiao Sect's disciples, with their pride, naturally looked down on these remnants of the witch tribe.

The Chantiao Sect's disciples were only wary of the two great witches at the Dalu level.

But no one expected that in the battle, Chiyou set up the cloud and mist array, which stretched for tens of thousands of miles, shrouded in mist. Even the Chantiao Sect's disciples, once they entered the array, were dazed and could not distinguish directions, let alone break the array.

Thus, this time, the Chantiao Sect's disciples lost face in front of the Human Emperor's army. Compared to their previous high spirits, many Chantiao Sect disciples felt they could not stay.

"This array is profound, and we are also unable to break it. However, the Great Venerable of Heaven sent the Nine Heavens Fairy down to the mortal world. The Nine Heavens Fairy, with her extensive knowledge, said that a magical weapon made from the skin and bones of a strange beast could break the cloud and mist array." Guangchengzi said this and glanced at Ding Yue.

Ding Yue, however, remained unperturbed, his expression unchanged.

Guangchengzi had to continue, "This strange beast lives on Liubo Mountain in the Eastern Sea. When my fellow disciple and I arrived, we found that the beast had already been taken by a fellow Daoist."

"Oh?"

Ding Yue seemed surprised, exclaiming and looking at the Kui ox beneath him, saying, "Is the beast you mentioned this one?"

Guangchengzi faintly sensed something was amiss. Even Chijizi beside him felt something was wrong. After seeing the inscription on the boulder on Liubo Mountain, they knew this trip might not go smoothly. Before coming to find Ding Yue, they had prepared for a confrontation.

But Ding Yue's attitude left them somewhat puzzled.

"Exactly."

But with no choice, Guangchengzi had to say.

"Is that so? Then it's a problem, as I have already taken this beast."

Ding Yue sighed, somewhat helplessly.

"I hope Master will consider the human race." Guangchengzi's eyes narrowed, saying, though his tone was calm, the emphasis on "Master" was a bit heavy.

"As the Master of the human race, you should take the lead in this matter." Chijizi said.

"Moo!"

The Kui ox, sensing something was wrong, let out a low roar, its single hoof shaking, causing ripples.

"What do you think, fellow Daoist?" Guangchengzi said, seeing Ding Yue's silence.

Ding Yue reached out to pat the Kui ox's head, calming it down: "Be good, why are you making noise? Since I have taken you, I will not give you away."

"Ding Yue, fellow Daoist?" Guangchengzi frowned, shouting.

"This is a matter of your Chantiao Sect. The Human Emperor of this world is also supported by your Chantiao Sect. Please return."

Ding Yue's expression paused, and he no longer smiled, saying, "And I am not very familiar with the two of you, so please do not use my name."

"You!"

Chijizi was furious, pointing at Ding Yue: "Ding Yue, are you mocking us?"

"Are you going to ignore the fate of the human race, just for your own selfish desires?" Guangchengzi's eyes turned cold, saying.

Ding Yue laughed loudly, ignoring Guangchengzi, and said to Chijizi: "Fellow Daoist, you are right, I am mocking you."

"Fellow Daoist, you are overstepping. Please be careful with your words."

Guangchengzi's killing intent suddenly appeared, and he said coldly.

"Ha ha, be careful with your words?" Ding Yue laughed lightly: "If the two of you have nothing else, then let's part ways."

Saying this, he patted the Kui ox.

The Kui ox roared, thunder shaking the sky, and lifted its hoof to walk.

Guangchengzi's eyes paused, and a powerful aura surged, saying, "Since that's the case, let me see how much your Daoist powers have grown, to be so arrogant."

Ding Yue laughed loudly, suddenly stood up, and with a wave of his sleeve, he took in the Kui ox's massive body.

"Should have said that earlier. Too much talk before."

Ding Yue's figure moved, a light flashed, and he took a large step, appearing in front of Guangchengzi and Chijizi, raising his hand, with immortal light swirling, and struck Guangchengzi.

At the same time, he raised his foot and swept it at Chijizi.

"Arrogant!"

Chijizi was furious, seeing Ding Yue attack both of them simultaneously, feeling a sense of humiliation. He reached out, and the Jade Purity Divine Thunder appeared in his hand, lightning flashing, thunder rumbling, and he struck at Ding Yue's sweeping foot.

At the same time, Guangchengzi was also enraged. Although he had lost to Ding Yue before, it did not affect his Daoist heart. Over the years, Guangchengzi did not think he was inferior to Ding Yue and occasionally had the thought of regaining his face.

Facing Ding Yue's punch, Guangchengzi would not use his physical body to resist, but he would not retreat either. Immortal light flashed on his body, and he raised his hand, using his divine power, with immortal light shining, and struck back.

"Ha ha~~~ Break!"

Ding Yue laughed loudly, shouting, and in an instant, his body was surrounded by chaotic immortal light, glowing brilliantly, and his physical body reached an unprecedented strength.

Instantly, it seemed that Ding Yue's body was imbued with boundless power, and every movement carried immense force.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

In an instant, two loud sounds echoed, the shockwave causing a fierce storm, and the surrounding hundreds of miles of sea were whipped up, waves surging.

The two figures were forced back, retreating nearly a hundred miles.

Guangchengzi and Chijizi were greatly alarmed, both with one arm hanging weakly, and spots of blood dripping from their bodies, indicating they had spat blood.

"Boom!"

Ding Yue appeared, taking a step, and the fierce wind and waves instantly calmed, without a ripple.

"He he...," Ding Yue looked at Guangchengzi and Chijizi, smiling, saying, "I was just in a bad mood recently, and I didn't expect the two of you to come. So, I'm sorry."

His figure flashed, and in a single step, he was in front of Guangchengzi and Chijizi, raising his hand and slapping Guangchengzi, saying, "I also like the feeling of a solid punch."

"You! Looking for death!"

Guangchengzi's face turned red, his eyes filled with killing intent. This was clearly an insult, and he, a high disciple of the Chantiao Sect and a disciple of a sage, could not bear it. His anger surged, and he raised his hand, the twin swords, Yin and Yang, ringing, sword energy surging, and sword light flashing, striking at Ding Yue's hand.

"Hmph, let's see how you make me die!"

Ding Yue said disdainfully, his hand glowing with dense chaotic immortal light, shining like jade, hard as iron, and spinning, whistling, and striking the twin swords.

A loud "Bang!" echoed, the twin swords trembled, flying back, the sword light shattered, turning into a shower of light.

"Pretty sharp!"

Ding Yue retracted his hand, which had dozens of fine cuts, blood flowing, and residual sword energy raging.

The chaotic immortal light shook, instantly shattering the sword energy and healing the wounds in an instant.

At this moment, Chijizi's killing intent surged, and the Water and Fire Blade appeared, red and blue intersecting, turning into a stream of light, piercing through the air.

But Ding Yue did not even take out his own magical treasure. His figure flickered, dodging the Water and Fire Blade, approaching Chijizi, and raised his hand, chopping down at Chijizi's head.

"Hmph!"

Chijizi coldly snorted, and his Eight Trigram Purple Sash and Yin-Yang Mirror appeared, immortal light swirling, the Eight Trigrams floating, protecting him. The Yin-Yang Mirror rotated, and a thick white light shot out, aiming at Ding Yue.

Ding Yue knew about the Yin-Yang Mirror and was prepared. A jade talisman in his body lightly shook, and the white light was shattered by the green light emitted by the talisman, disappearing.

Taking this opportunity, Ding Yue chopped down.

Chijizi was greatly alarmed, not expecting his family treasure to be ineffective. He had no time to retreat and could only tilt his head.

"Crack!"

The sound of bones breaking echoed. Although he was protected by the immortal sash, Ding Yue's immortal body was powerful, and his hand shattered the protective immortal light with a single strike.

Then, it firmly struck Chijizi's right shoulder, instantly shattering the bones, and a powerful force surged into his body, causing internal damage.

His right arm hung, the right shoulder a mess of blood and flesh, blood seeping through the immortal sash.

Chijizi was drenched in sweat, his eyes filled with pain, his face twisted, and he quickly retreated, his internal energy surging to suppress the foreign force.

He looked at Ding Yue with extreme hatred, as if even the waters of the four seas could not wash it away.

(Today is the weekend, though I didn't manage three updates, I did manage two. Otherwise, updating once a day wouldn't be good.)
