Bang! A red flare burst into countless light sparks and knocked against the Alleviation Restriction Immortal Array because of Immortal Emperor Yi Mang, who teleported out and fell on the ground.

Before Immortal Emperor Yi Mang could make another move, Di Jiu drew his Heavenly Aqua Saber to strike out with a saber shadow.

He utilized the level-nine immortal escape talisman but could not leave. How could Immortal Emperor Yi Mang not know that there was a top-notch Spatial Sealing Large Array set up here?

He was unable to understand why he had not sensed the array flags at all. The Spatial Sealing Large Array not only required a top-notch Array Dao level, but it also needed to touch the spatial law. How great was his opponent? Was he able to touch the spatial law? This did not allow him to think any further. Di Jiu’s Heavenly Aqua Saber had already struck.

Without any intervals, Di Jiu struck when Immortal Emperor Yi Mang was slammed by the Spatial Sealing Immortal Array. This speed was still too slow for Immortal Emperor Yi Mang.

A brownish-yellow Exquisite Pagoda was wielded out by Immortal Emperor Yi Mang. The Exquisite Pagoda transformed into over hundreds of feet in a flash and swept towards Di Jiu’s Heavenly Aqua Saber.

Boom! Di Jiu felt that his Heavenly Aqua Saber was on the verge of not belonging to him anymore. A terrifying force swept out of the pagoda and tore apart Di Jiu’s domain without any intervals, trying to sweep him into the pagoda.

Di Jiu hurriedly activated a Nomological Array flag and a level-nine Defense Array was activated. The formidable Defense Immortal Essence attacked the force of the Exquisite Pagoda’s sweep, helping Di Jiu block this disaster.

Di Jiu felt cold sweat break out on his back from the shock. He had taken an absolute initiative on the surface, but he had actually been nearly finished by his opponent’s Exquisite Pagoda.

He was still standing there for two reasons. One, because this space was enveloped by his level-nine Confinement Killing Immortal Array and Immortal Emperor Yi Mang’s Exquisite Pagoda was slower by dozens of times more than usual, which allowed him to activate the Defense Array. Two, because he split open his opponent’s Exquisite Pagoda divine power law with his saber, causing the Exquisite Pagoda to become powerless.

An Immortal Emperor should not be provoked at will. If he had thought highly of a villain like Immortal Emperor Yi Mang, he definitely would not gain anything this time.

After this desperate experience, Di Jiu was much more careful with the Defense Immortal Arrays encircling him. The level-nine Strangulation Immortal Array was also activated by him.

Di Jiu broke out in cold sweat from the shock. Immortal Emperor Yi Mang was also shocked.

He had already expected the outcome of the fight between Di Jiu’s Confinement Killing Array and his pagoda. Even though he was trapped by Di Jiu’s Confinement Killing Array, it was over dozens of times slower than other places. He had a chance to finish off Di Jiu with his pagoda.

In fact, he had not even injured Di Jiu lightly and his saber was simply terrifying. It could actually strike above his divine power law. What kind of Saber Dao divine power was this?

What made him panic was that Di Jiu had not only set up the level-nine Confinement Killing Immortal Array and the level-nine Spatial Sealing Immortal Array here, but he had also set up a level-nine Defense Immortal Array.

He could not sense any of these Immortal Arrays. What kind of powerful Array Dao level was required?

Yi Mang felt the space around him once again change. A terrifying strangulation aura filled with the smell of death could also be felt.

This was not good. There was still a level-nine Strangulation Immortal Array here.

Yi Mang had already shown both his middle fingers at the moment. How cruel! How highly did he think of Yi Mang if he had set up four level-nine Immortal Arrays? One to confine him, one to kill him, one to prevent him from escaping, and another one to guard him against his attack. He reckoned Di Jiu was the first person to use his own Array Dao without restraint.

Bang! Bang! The Strangulation Immortal Array was activated and the blood mist thickened.

No matter how formidable Yi Mang was, he was unable to break through so many level-nine Immortal Arrays within such a short time while Di Jiu was striking with his Heavenly Aqua Saber from time to time in the Confinement Killing Immortal Array.

Crack! Di Jiu hacked both of Immortal Emperor Yi Mang’s legs with one saber move, making Immortal Emperor Yi Mang sigh. He knew that his power was already gone. Unless Di Jiu was magnanimous, he would definitely die today.

“Di Jiu, I admit defeat. However, I have something to tell you.” Yi Mang gave up any thought of continuing to blast the surrounding large arrays.

In an ordinary Immortal Array, he would have sensed where the foundation was. Di Jiu had set up these large arrays and he was seriously injured all over his body. However, he could not even see where the array core was. If this went on, he would only be disgraced.

“Alright.” Even though Di Jiu agreed, his Heavenly Aqua Saber did not stop. He once again hacked off one of Immortal Emperor Yi Mang’s arms. At the same time, numerous Nomological Array flags were set up. They sealed Immortal Emperor Yi Mang in the level-nine Confinement Killing Immortal Array.

Yi Mang, who did not even care that his arms had been hacked off, looked at Di Jiu in shock. “What kind of Array Dao is this? Why can’t I sense any of the array flags?”

Di Jiu walked over to Yi Mang and lifted his hand to hit him between his eyebrows, sealing all his meridians and Spiritual Sea. He then said coldly, “What are you? You could also sense my array flags.”

If regret could drown the Square Immortal Continent, Immortal Emperor Yi Mang’s regret would have drowned the entire galaxy. He should not have been greedy this time.

He had been greedy enough to gather the light from providence in the Immortal World in such a short time, allowing Di Jiu to set up many terrifying formless large arrays here. Besides the saber move that could hack apart his divine power, Di Jiu’s strength was not worth mentioning. These large arrays were his only fatal move.

Di Jiu carried the Heavenly Aqua Saber and walked over to Immortal Emperor Yi Mang’s Square Immortal Cauldron first to seal it up and put it away in the Quintessential World.

He very quickly realized that his Quintessential World could not store the Square Immortal Cauldron. Di Jiu also very soon understood what was happening. The quality of his Quintessential World was too low. The Square Immortal Cauldron had more than half of the light from providence of the Immortal World inside. A treasure that ensured the light from providence would shine was not something the Quintessential World could store.

Di Jiu did not bother about the Square Immortal Cauldron. Instead, he once again walked over to Immortal Emperor Yi Mang. “Old traitor, even a piece of scum would be a bit better than you. For the sake of your greed, you actually stripped the Square Immortal Continent of what ensured the light from providence would shine, put it into the Square Immortal Cauldron, and swept it away. Isn’t a bastard like you wasting the Essence Energy of the universe?”

Immortal Emperor Yi Mang suppressed his regret and fear and sighed. He tried to calm down as he told Di Jiu, “Daoist Di, I did not gather all this light from providence of the Immortal World for myself. You should know that the Four Major Immortal Continents are unable to ascend to a higher realm. I gathered all this only to open the ascension pathway to the Immortal World.”

“How did you know?” Di Jiu subconsciously asked.

Immortal Emperor Yi Mang tried his best to lower his voice. “The ascension imprint was handed to me by the Upper Realm. As long as I gathered the light from providence shining on the world, I could connect to the Upper Realm and ascend.”

Bang! Di Jiu lifted his hand and sent an Immortal Essence slap his way. It landed on Immortal Emperor Yi Mang’s face, causing half of his face to get crippled. “You piece of trash! You want to destroy the world and take hundreds of millions of lives so you can ascend? If you were being selfish just this once, I’d forget it. However, I found the second origin of the light from providence in the Immortal World with great difficulty and tried to restore the Immortal World. You had the guts to gather it once more. Tell me, how should I punish a piece of trash like you?”

Immortal Emperor Yi Mang stared calmly at Di Jiu and said, “Di Jiu, you are very gifted and your cultivation speed is definitely very fast. I believe you could be like me very soon. You will become a peak Immortal Emperor. When that happens, you will also face the choice of ascending to a higher realm. I can tell you that if you want to ascend to a higher realm, you will have to gather the light from providence that shines in the world. Although I found the Square Immortal Cauldron and gathered most of the light from providence shining in the Square Immortal Continent, it is still insufficient for the realm. Thus, I started gathering once again.

If you are willing to work with me, I could give you control over the Square Immortal Cauldron. After you gather all the light from providence in the Square Immortal Continent, you could bring me along so I can ascend. If you kill me, you will be momentarily content but will not gain any benefits for yourself.”

Di Jiu, who was debating whether to make another move, was swayed. His tone became lower. “What is the name of the person who handed you the imprint? Where can the ascension take place?”

Immortal Emperor Yi Mang sighed. He knew he would be unable to survive.

Since he could not live, he would rather stay silent.

Di Jiu said softly, “You can choose to say it, or I could burn you. After I search your soul, I will burn you for 999 years with my Dao fire. You can choose one of your options.”

“He’s called Jiang Dai. As for the place of ascension, I have a jade slip in my ring that shows it,” Immortal Emperor Yi Mang told him before Di Jiu could repeat himself.

Di Jiu snorted. “You’re very clever. Although you will die either way, it would be better to feel less guilty.”

“Could you allow me to be reincarnated? I did not conceal it from you after all.” Immortal Emperor Yi Mang glanced at Di Jiu. This was his only request.

Immortal Emperor Yi Mang’s ring landed in Di Jiu’s hand with one move. “A piece of trash like you still wants to be reincarnated? Don’t read so much into things.”

Di Jiu lifted his hand to send a flame over.

Immortal Emperor Yi Mang was not a body-tempering expert. Thus, as he faced Di Jiu’s level-nine immortal flame, he could only persevere for a few breaths before turning into dust and having his soul annihilated.
