Book 08 Chapter 069: The Utterly Defeated Ji Dihong



The heavenly eye was gone, and Ao Ying, Xiong You, and the Dark Guard envoy commander were dead. The world devouring’s physical body was snatched away, the divine Dao plundering was plundered, and Cangjie was gone.


Gu Hai was behind all of these.


Ji Dihong’s rage reached a new high. Moving extremely quickly, he sent out billions of sword qi from his new Xuanyuan Sword. Stars and planets exploded in large numbers.


Ji Dihong kept smashing Gu Hai deeper into outer space.


Gu Hai had no way to compete with Ji Dihong in strength. However, his physical body was impenetrable. Although Ji Dihong attacked him relentlessly, Ji Dihong never succeeded in harming him.


Gu Hai wanted to lure Ji Dihong into the void, not out of fear but worry that Essence Genesis would go on another killing spree. After all, he had lured Essence Genesis over. If Essence Genesis killed billions of citizens, he would share culpability for this sin.


“Gu Hai, don’t run if you dare!” Ji Dihong glared.


“We are not running. Rather, we don’t want your innocent citizens to get killed!” Gu Hai shouted as he backed off.


Whoosh!


Ji Dihong seemed to have guessed what Gu Hai was thinking. He arrived before Gu Hai at an extreme speed, blocking Gu Hai from heading towards the void.


“You can’t run anymore now, right?” Ji Dihong snarled.


Gu Hai’s face turned stony.


“You harmed our official and stole our divine Dao. You deserve death! Gu Hai, you cannot run today!” Ji Dihong said coldly.


Gu Hai narrowed his eyes at Ji Dihong. Although his cultivation could not compare to Ji Dihong’s, he did not fear a battle to the death with Ji Dihong.


“Die!” Ji Dihong swung the Xuanyuan Sword once again.


Gu Hai’s eyes turned cold as he extended his hand and waved.


Buzz!


An opening suddenly appeared in space. Gu Hai had opened an entrance to the Hungry Ghost Path Secret Realm and stepped in.


The powerful Xuanyuan Sword’s manifested sword swung down, but the moment it entered the Hungry Ghost Path Secret Realm, it weakened.


Then Gu Hai extended his hand outside and tapped from inside.


Bang!


The manifested sword shattered.


“Ji Dihong, don’t you want to kill us? Bring it on! Try coming in. We won’t close this entrance and will let you continue using the power of your nation. So what? Are you coming in or not?!” Gu Hai mocked.


“Roar!”


Gu Hai’s body trembled, and he turned into a large black dragon.


The humongous black dragon stretched its body out in the Hungry Ghost Path Secret Realm. It was incredibly vast—sixty kilometers long. Its might shook the Hungry Ghost Path Secret Realm.


Sixty kilometers!


When Ji Dihong had Chiyou’s Spiritual Progenitor deity king’s energy, he only been fifty kilometers long. At that length, the longer one grew, the harder it would be to grow longer and the greater the difference in strength.


Gu Hai opened the entrance facing up, so no one on the Divine Continent could see what he looked like in the Hungry Ghost Path Secret Realm, only Ji Dihong.


Ji Dihong never expected that Gu Hai could open an entrance to the Hungry Ghost Path Secret Realm at will. When he saw the powerful dragon, his face filled with boundless rage.


“It’s mine! It should be mine!” Ji Dihong snarled ferociously.


The black dragon within returned to human form.


“Hah! It turns out you don’t dare to enter, either. You shout and scream so vigorously, but it turns out you are all bark and no bite. You are only so-so!” Gu Hai sneered.


The interior trembled, and Gu Hai closed the entrance. In the next moment, another entrance opened above Ji Dihong, and Gu Hai stepped out.


“You came out?” Ji Dihong glared at Gu Hai.


“Indeed. Since you don’t dare to enter, we came out!” Gu Hai said coldly.


Gu Hai did this because he sensed that Essence Genesis was already on the verge of erupting. His strong murderous intent had filled the entire Divine Continent in an instant.


Many experts suddenly shuddered as they looked towards the murderous intent’s source.


“Since you are out, then die!” Ji Dihong charged forward again with the Xuanyuan Sword upraised.


Boom!


Gu Hai fled while Ji Dihong chased, both heading towards the void.


------


Down below, Essence Genesis had already gotten the answers to everything.


Ji Dihong was behind everything.


“Ji Dihong? Hah! Ji Dihong?” Essence Genesis suddenly extended his right hand after revealing a smile.


Phish!


Essence Genesis’s right index finger stabbed Fengbo in the forehead. The back of Fengbo’s brain exploded from the tremendous force.


A consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivator?


Killed instantly?


Far away, the watching crowd showed shock and horror.


Limu wanted to help, but he saw Essence Genesis kill Fengbo with one finger. What could he do, given his severe injuries?


Limu turned his head and fled into the distance.


Essence Genesis simply looked expressionlessly in the direction that Limu fled. In the next instant, his figure flashed, and he suddenly appeared in front of Limu.


“Ah!”


Limu let out a startled cry.


“Limu? Earlier, Fengbo said you were involved,” Essence Genesis said indifferently.


“He was speaking nonsense! It was all nonsense! Don’t believe him!” Limu shouted in alarm.


“Nonsense? Do you think I cannot tell? He told me everything—that’s why I gave him a quick death—yet you want to fool me? Hah!” Essence Genesis continued smiling.


A teardrop appeared at the corner of his eye as he smiled faintly. Murderous intent like the edge of a blade poured out, and Limu felt pain all over his body.


“Every time Third Junior Brother argued with me, I found him troublesome. However, he was my Third Junior Brother in the end. If you wanted to probe the Myriad Age Daoist Sect, couldn’t you have come straight at me? Why insist on killing my third junior brother? Now, I want him to argue with me, but you have killed him! He was my only family in this world, but he died in all senses possible! A terrible death!” Essence Genesis revealed a cold smile.


Limu’s heart chilled. He knew Essence Genesis had been truly angered, and there was no returning from that. Flee? He would not be faster than Essence Genesis.


Since there’s nowhere to run, let’s go down together!


Limu showed a ferocious expression as he threw a punch at Essence Genesis with all his might. Space shattered as his fist arrived before Essence Genesis.


Boom!


A sound rang out as that fist suddenly stopped. Essence Genesis had caught the fist with one hand.


“What?” Limu’s expression changed.


Crack! Essence Genesis used some force.


“Argh!” Limu screamed in agony. However, the force crushed his entire left arm into a pulp. Blood spurted from his arm.


“I won’t let you die so easily. I want you to suffer my torture for the rest of your life, just like the Purple Jade Heavenly Demon!” Essence Genesis said coldly.


Boom!


Through unknown means, Essence Genesis exploded Limu’s body, turning it into countless chunks of flesh splattering in all directions. However, Limu’s perfectly intact three spiritual souls and seven physical souls remained where his body had been. Essence Genesis swept his sleeve out and collected the souls.


Limu, a consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivator? He was like a chick before Essence Genesis, utterly crushed?


Hou Yi, Xingtian, Cangjie, Gu Han, Long Aotian, and countless others inhaled sharply.


The strength Essence Genesis displayed was simply too shocking.


Essence Genesis waved, and the Essence Genesis Pennant flew back into his sleeve.


Then, Essence Genesis raised his hand and looked into the depths of outer space. The mastermind behind this matter—Ji Dihong—was there.


“Ji Dihong?” Essence Genesis’s expression was scarily sullen.


With one step, he crossed billions of kilometers, and instantly reached the depths of outer space, arriving before Gu Hai and Ji Dihong.


At this moment, the three were already at the edge of the Six Paths Immortal Realm, where space and time were warped.


“Essence Genesis? What happened to Fengbo?” Ji Dihong demanded while glaring.


“Hah! Even at this moment, you are still thinking of Fengbo and Limu? Haha! Ji Dihong, my third junior brother did not offend you!” Essence Genesis said with a frosty expression.


Then Essence Genesis threw a punch at Ji Dihong.


Ji Dihong’s expression changed as he counterpunched at Essence Genesis.


Boom!


The two’s fists met in outer space. The many twisted stars and planets in the surroundings exploded. Even Gu Hai moved back a little from the immense force.


At this moment, Ji Dihong was driving the power of his nation, which gave him the strength to block a punch from Essence Genesis.


Gu Hai understood that this was everything Ji Dihong had. However, this was just the tip of the iceberg for Essence Genesis.


Essence Genesis looked at Ji Dihong with a frosty expression. “Driving the power of your nation? Hah! Do you think you can block me by using the power of your nation?”


A murderous glint flashed in Essence Genesis’s eyes.


At the moment, the two fists held their ground, maintaining a stalemate at the edge of the immortal firmament.


Gu Hai’s face sank, and he swung his saber down.


“Tenth Cycle!”


The saber’s edge swept towards Ji Dihong with massive force, aimed at knocking him out of the Six Paths Immortal Firmament.


“Gu Hai, how dare you?!” Ji Dihong roared with rage and grief. The energy of his citizens dissipated once he entered the void.


However, Essence Genesis looked at Gu Hai coldly. “I have a grudge against Ji Dihong. If you dare to interfere again, I’ll kill you as well. Humph!”


Essence Genesis gave chase.


Boom!


The two resumed their battle in the void.


However, Gu Hai inwardly released his breath. He had not done that to kill Ji Dihong but to save the Huang Heavenly Dynasty citizens. In the earlier instant, Essence Genesis had revealed the intent to kill all of the Huang Heavenly Dynasty citizens.


With Ji Dihong forced into the void, Essence Genesis would no longer kill the citizens.


Gu Hai lowered his head and looked down.


Rumble…!


Ji Dihong’s blessings cloud sea suddenly scattered.


Since Ji Dihong entered the void, the blessings scattered because they could no longer sense the presence of their sovereign.


Gu Hai stepped forward and flew towards Xuanyuan City.


He waved his hand, releasing Xuanyuan City from the Gu’s Immortal Firmament. The citizens had friends and family, and he did not want to forcibly move them, even if they were not Han Nation citizens.


The only thing Gu Hai kept was Blood Maple Forest.


When Essence Genesis and Ji Dihong clashed earlier, Blood Maple Forest’s foundation had been loosened.


The Gu’s Immortal Firmament had quickly consumed it.


Rumble…!


Gu Hai collected the hundred blood maples into the Gu’s Immortal Firmament.


“No! Your Holy Eminence!” The citizens coming out of Xuanyuan City cried in grief when they saw the blessings cloud sea scattering.


“It’s Gu Hai! Gu Hai killed His Holy Eminence! My Huang Heavenly Dynasty’s blessings are flowing to the north! They are flowing to the north!” a citizen shouted.


“Blessings?” Gu Hai was somewhat startled.


Indeed, the scattered blessings above Xuanyuan City were flowing towards Borderless Heavenly Capital.


“Roar!”


The golden blessings dragon over Borderless Heavenly Capital roared, also surprised at the arrival of these strange roiling blessings.


“I understand now. Imperial Emperor Gu was the one who forced His Holy Eminence into the void. The laws of the world sensed that and thought Imperial Emperor Gu killed His Holy Eminence, so most of the Huang Heavenly Dynasty’s blessings, besides the part that disappeared, flowed to the Han Imperial Dynasty?” Cangjie said in shock.
