Chapter 876 - 819: Finally Stepping onto the Stage

Ever since he was trained and guided by the Wise Old Man, Han Yu seemed to have suddenly understood things.

Or it was as if understanding one thing led to understanding everything, using the extreme Way of Gold to permeate the entire system of Divine Techniques, even the combat system.

Perhaps extremity itself was Han Yu’s path.

To use the Body Technique to its extreme, to make the most of his physical body, to use all methods to their utmost.

It just so happened that he possessed an extremely vast Sea of Consciousness, enough to perform all sorts of extreme operations.

It just so happened that he had a body constantly driven to extremity, enough to endure the strain and execute various extreme techniques.

This might be the first time in the history of the Cultivator Realm where a lower-tier cultivator fiercely battled a higher-tier cultivator without dying!

It’s not that Han Yu is too strong, but that Wujiu is too malicious.

It seemed deliberate—no, it was entirely deliberate.

He wanted to humiliate Di Liuxin, mockingly taunting as he attacked.

"You accidentally became a whetstone for the younger generation!"

Di Liuxin was naturally grinding his teeth in hatred, especially towards this conniving bastard who repeatedly thwarted him.

Otherwise, how could he be used as a whetstone by a junior?

Han Yu’s moves indeed surprised him, just as Chasing Soul had said.

In the Cultivator Realm, there are five levels: Ant, Junior, Young Friend, Daoist Friend, Senior.

Because of his impressive performance, Han Yu had the honor of being recognized as a Junior, emerging from the Ant Realm.

Of course, this further solidified Di Liuxin’s resolve to kill.

From overseas to now, how long has it been, and he’s already made such progress? The mastermind behind this must think of him as a pawn.

Although it’s unclear what role Han Yu plays, just like Yama Hall’s previous stance, whatever the use, killing him would end all possibilities.

Besides, it’s nearly certain without even guessing.

The Central Continent couldn’t produce such a person, and Yama Hall has no resources to cultivate such an individual; they can’t even sustain Divine Techniques.

So, it’s only the elusive Heavenly Dao playing such tricks.

"Heavenly Dao’s strategy, interesting."

Di Liuxin had already begun to smile, glancing at Wujiu with slight mockery as he spoke.

"Are you still going to protect him?"

Knowing full well this is a pawn of Heavenly Dao, do you still dare to help?

Wujiu’s expression turned unsightly, glancing at Han Yu with hesitation.

Celestial Dao Sect has done so much to target Heavenly Dao.

Yama Hall has done so much, also to target Heavenly Dao.

So, Han Yu is highly likely the person prepared by Heavenly Dao, then how could he still protect him?

"Don’t listen to his nonsense; even I don’t know whose side I’m on, and he knows?"

In response, Han Yu found a gap in his ongoing attacks to reply.

This is the truth; he doesn’t know which side he’s on now, certainly not the Celestial Dao Sect, and definitely not Yama Hall.

But if we’re talking about Heavenly Dao, excluding the possibility that the Wise Old Man is lying, there are three possibilities.

Either the Bottle is Heavenly Dao, or the Artifact Spirit is Heavenly Dao, or he, Han Yu, himself is Heavenly Dao.

The key is that any of these three possibilities is extremely ridiculous, isn’t it?

The Bottle always stays silent, as if dead, and as an Artifact, it inherently possesses an Artifact Spirit; if it were Heavenly Dao, how would its relationship with the Artifact Spirit be explained?

If the Artifact Spirit were Heavenly Dao, it would be similar.

And this guy has a malicious mind; if he were Heavenly Dao, it would probably be a disaster for the Central Continent.

As for himself, if he were Heavenly Dao, that would be even more absurd than the other two. What kind of dissatisfaction would drive him to transform into a human?

Hasn’t he endured enough hardship?

Or was his brain kicked by a donkey?

So even though he and the Artifact Spirit have long speculated about the nature of Heavenly Dao, they couldn’t easily accept the possibility that it might exist between them.

Moreover, these are all just speculations; who knows if the Heavenly Dao is an old sly character, secretly watching from the sidelines?

Then Han Yu hurriedly added, "Now the Celestial Dao Sect is about to annihilate you, and you’re still listening to his nonsense?"

No matter what Han Yu’s position is, the fact that he came to help Yama Hall is indisputable.

Even if his intentions are somewhat questionable, Han Yu has never hidden it.

Because anyone with a bit of sense could guess that.

"Do you want to withdraw in defeat, or do you want to continue breaking that old undead?"

Han Yu withdrew hastily, secretly on guard, prepared to leave immediately at any hint of Wujiu’s wrong intentions.

Fortunately, Wujiu ultimately chose to deal with the Celestial Dao Sect first, sighing before looking at Han Yu with complex emotions.

"A pawn with strength, brains, and rhetoric; you’re very unqualified."

Screw your pawn!

Right now, Han Yu detests the word pawn the most, almost cursing on the spot. Fortunately, Wujiu’s last words brought him some joy.

With a cold face, Wujiu looked at him as he spoke.

"Today I will still protect you, but after today, I might just kill you."

There’s no need for today; once the high platform is destroyed, you can play on your own!

Han Yu muttered to himself.

He does have a bottom line in stirring up trouble. Once the high platform is destroyed, he’ll leave, letting these two groups fight until they’re brainless without concerning him.

Di Liuxin was full of killing intent at this moment, hearing Han Yu’s insults clearly, as well as Han Yu’s rhetoric.

"So, are you still going to cooperate with the Heavenly Dao?"

In his view, cooperating with Han Yu was no different from working with the Heavenly Dao.

"No, I’m just borrowing his hand to destroy you all."

Wujiu shook his head, flatly denying.

They would not collaborate with the Heavenly Dao!

More words were futile, and Han Yu wouldn’t let this old man talk his way out. He sent out a Water Dragon Vortex, giving the opponent’s Dharma Aspect a big slap.

Di Liuxin was so furious that he practically smoked with rage.

"Damn it!"

The three sides clashed once again, and this time it wasn’t just Han Yu attacking with full force. Wujiu also attacked Di Liuxin with murderous intent.

The battle above was even fiercer than the one below.

Gradually, Di Liuxin began to falter; Han Yu’s figure was too elusive, having disrupted him multiple times.

This created excellent conditions for Wujiu. When strong opponents clash, the difference between victory and defeat can either be extremely difficult or happen very quickly.

One mistake is all it takes.

And Di Liuxin made more than one.

Consequently, Di Liuxin was successively hit by three of Wujiu’s charges, nearly dispersing his Dharma Aspect. His body had already started to show injuries.

Even Han Yu managed to stealthily poke a hole in his Dharma Aspect’s head.

"Looks like you can’t hold on either!"

Jiu You, observing from below, immediately smiled.

"Do you really want to conspire with the Heavenly Dao?"

At this moment, Jiang Xinyuan’s expression was extremely cold, as if such a decision was outrageous.

Jiu You sneered, taking several more shots before mocking, "We just happened to join forces with that brat by coincidence to deal with you, how is that conspiring?"

Damn it!

Jiang Xinyuan almost swore, wasn’t this conspiring?

"You’ll regret this!"

Jiu You rolled his eyes, "As if you wouldn’t regret it if you succeeded."

How such a double-standard dog survived so long without being killed, no one knows.

"You won’t succeed either!"

In the next moment, as if steeled in his resolve, Jiang Xinyuan gathered the purple energy once more, but this time it didn’t spread as smoke throughout the arena; instead, it gathered towards his Dharma Aspect!

"You double-standard dog!"

Jiu You took one look and directly cursed.

Who was the idiot saying Dharma Aspect height doesn’t necessarily equate to strength, and now growing dozens of feet just inhaling some purple energy?

A Dharma Aspect of two hundred and fifty feet suddenly swelled, even overpowering Jiu You and Yuan Rong temporarily!

Yuan Rong had had no chance to shine since arriving, either suffering or sustaining injuries.

Now enraged, he unexpectedly charged forward under Jiu You’s shocked gaze.

"Damn! Yuan Rong, don’t kill yourself!"

But Yuan Rong ignored him, launching himself with his ghostly Dharma Aspect at Jiang Xinyuan.

A deafening Heaven and Earth Destruction boom almost leveled ten miles around; it was no surprise that Yuan Rong was blasted away, but a mysterious aura flashed across his body.

The next moment, he revived energetically, his strength suddenly surging, his Dharma Aspect reaching two hundred feet.

"I will kill you today!"

I’m strong!

Yuan Rong bolstered himself up, coldly addressing Jiang Xinyuan before charging forward again, achieving parity in the battle.

Jiu You, on the side, was dumbstruck; was Yuan Rong hiding his strength?

His first thought was precisely that; was this still Yuan Rong?

Fearless and undying?

To suddenly boost power this much, if not hidden strength, what else?

"Here you are, finally resembling a mad dog!"

Han Yu glanced downward amidst his busyness, nearly chuckling aloud.

Charging consecutively nine times, there’s going to be a lot of fun soon.

Their side’s situation was looking very favorable; Di Liuxin could no longer hold, Wujiu was growing increasingly fierce such that even Han Yu had to avoid his sharpness.

The only one left was the Artifact Spirit; success or failure depended entirely on it now.

Meanwhile, the Artifact Spirit also withdrew its gaze with a complex expression, especially upon seeing Han Yu clashing with such strong opponents. Even if it was by tricks and protection, it was nonetheless remarkable.

"You damn thing, you’ve really made it big."

Standing alongside Divine Dao Realm experts, this was truly preparing to ascend to the top.

Having witnessed his journey firsthand, understanding him best, the Artifact Spirit inexplicably felt somewhat troubled.

It suddenly realized that Ping’s role was becoming increasingly negligible, particularly as its presence grew weaker.

Its help to Han Yu seemed to be nearly exhausted, was its last role merely companionship?

"I’m still useful, Ping is the useless one!"

Suddenly, the Artifact Spirit snapped back, realizing it could wield powers equivalent to Han Yu’s, far from useless, just like now.

A scepter key Han Yu entrusted earlier appeared above its head. Reaching out to take it, imitating Han Yu’s gesture, it held it with both hands in midair.

In the following moment, a miniature knife appeared, fitting its shape perfectly. With a leap towards the high platform, it stabbed forward!
