Chapter 507: Dugu Qiu, Dead!

Chatter! Chatter! Chatter!

Jiang Yi’s small palm print might have neutralized a majority of the pressure from the rainbow giant palm print that pressed down from the sky, but the bones in Jiang Yi’s legs were still fracturing from the pressure. The limestone slabs were doing worse as giant cracks had opened up, and half of Jiang Yi’s body had sunk into the surface of the ground!

Just a little more. I just need a little more time to reverse the situation. Do the heavens truly want me dead?

Seeing the scene up above the sky, Jiang Yi revealed a trace of despair in his eyes.

The spatial zone was shivering, and he couldn’t instant-shift. He had just learned how to gather the hidden nine heaven stars’ power in his dantian, but his gathering speed was just too slow. The amount was also just too little.

There were two rainbow palm prints of distinctly different sizes in the sky. It was obvious that Jiang Yi’s small palm print wouldn’t be able to withstand Ji Tingyu’s giant palm print. The horrific power of the nine heaven stars was going to press down and crush Jiang Yi.

Tsk! Tsk!

The giant palm, which had a diameter of three meters, pressed down with an unstoppable aura presence. All the buildings that were within the 30-meter radius were all destroyed, and houses that were built with limestone were turned into dust.

The surface of the ground where Jiang Yi was had all sunken, and Jiang Yi was enduring the agony. All the bones in his legs were shattered, and his innards were injured from the impact. He violently vomited blood out as though it was limitless.

Buzz—!

When the large and small rainbow palm prints clashed, there wasn’t any intense explosion. However, the spatial zone shook, and spatial cracks extended and interwove outwards.

As expected, the small palm was destroyed by the giant palm, but the rainbow radiance from the giant palm had dimmed a lot. The pressure was still as horrific, and it was still coming down like Mt. Tai.

“Pfff…”

Jiang Yi’s eyes rolled white while he spurted out with a mouth of fresh blood.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Right at this moment, the entire surface of the Hades Abyss suddenly broke open. Apart from the radiating Martial Arts Hall, all the other buildings had collapsed. Because of the activated Heaven Fate Great Array, the entire Hades Abyss’ ground should have been radiating with a blinding light. Then again, the light had vanished, and it was dusky!

“What is going on? The Heaven Fate Great Array had been broken?” Dugu Qiu got a shock as he flew over and looked down fearfully.

He could clearly feel that the Hades Abyss’ strongest Heaven Fate Great Array had been destroyed. This array was put up by three Heaven Monarch experts from the main hall, and it was their best reliance. Without this great array, Ji Tingyu’s condensed image would lose the supply of power and vanish.

“It is still fine, still fine. Jiang Yi is about to die soon; otherwise, there will be huge trouble.” When Dugu Qiu saw that Jiang Yi was about to be enveloped by the giant palm, he silently let out a breath of relief.

Ji Tingyu’s image was fading away, but her face had this exceptional calm expression. Her eyes were dimmed, and before her image faded, she left behind a defeated speech: “Hall Master… we have lost! Even after all the calculation, I have left out a single person. I have forgotten about him, the exceptional hero from the Divine Martial Kingdom.”

Bang!

Just as Jiang Yi was about to be smashed by the giant palm print, the surface of the ground beside suddenly exploded while a blue shadow flew over. An unequaled overlord aura presence poured out.

It was a middle-aged man—a dashing and refined middle-aged man. He was raising a giant black-gold shield, and the shield was radiating with black light and horrific aura presence. It was obviously a saint artifact, and the man was glowing with a dull yellow protection coat as he rushed towards the giant palm print fearlessly.

“Uh…”

Jiang Yi was originally closing his eyes and waiting for death. When he felt the pressure vanishing, he opened his eyes with astonishment. He saw a tall and straight figure, which was imposing like a mountain, bursting towards the giant palm print like a cannonball.

Jiang Bieli?

Jiang Yi’s soul spirit was shaken. When he was at the point of demise, a least-expected individual appeared? He even destroyed the Heaven Fate Great Array? Right now, he was helping Jiang Yi block against that horrific palm?

How did Jiang Bieli sneak in? Why wasn’t he discovered if he was hidden in the Hades Abyss? How did he break this heaven-defying array? Did Jiang Bieli especially come to help Jiang Yi? He then appeared at the most crucial moment to save Jiang Yi’s life?

“No…”

All these questions didn’t matter in the next second!

Jiang Yi could clearly see that the giant palm print had effortlessly turned Jiang Bieli’s saint artifact into dust. Immediately after, Jiang Bieli’s large arm was turned into blood mist. When the giant palm continued to press down, it ultimately smashed onto Jiang Bieli’s dull yellow protection, and Jiang Yi could see that it was crushed like an eggshell. Jiang Bieli’s body was then enveloped by the giant palm print.

“Why are you still not releasing the flames to protect your body?”

A transmitted message echoed in Jiang Yi’s mind as he suddenly awakened. He immediately drove a trace of essence force into the Fire Spirit Pearl, causing the pearl to radiate with light while bundles of Netherworld Ghost Flames poured out.

The image of Ji Tingyu had vanished, and so did the pressure from the prowess.

After destroying Jiang Yi’s small palm print, Jiang Bieli’s saint artifact shield, and his Earth’s Shield dao pattern, more than half the energy of the giant palm had been exhausted. The giant palm was originally radiating with rainbow brilliance, but it was now dimmed. Its prowess had been greatly decreased. It allowed Jiang Yi to circulate some essence force; otherwise, he wouldn’t even be able to release any ghost flames.

Boom!

The giant palm continued to press down, and despite having more than half the energy expended, it still was the power of the nine heaven stars, which was the power of heaven and earth. How domineering was it? Jiang Bieli’s strength was competent, but a pity that he was only at the seventh stage of the Vajra Realm. How could his physical body be able to resist against the giant palm?

“There are two wooden sculptures buried in the southern corner of the valley. The small one is for you. If you can find your mother, pass the big sculpture to her. Jiang Yi, I am sorry. I can only help you this much…”

Another transmitted message echoed in Jiang Yi’s mind. However, before the message could finish, Jiang Bieli had been turned into a blood mist while his body splattered in all directions. Much of the blood mist was evaporated by the ghost flames. Jiang Yi could only see one of Jiang Bieli’s badly damaged arms landing three kilometers away.

“Ahh, Ahh, Ahh…!”

Despite the fact that Jiang Yi never acknowledged this father, but they were still connected by flesh and blood. Jiang Yi’s body was flowing with Jiang Bieli’s blood, and it was an unchangeable fact.

Right now, seeing how Jiang Bieli got smashed without a corpse in order to save him, Jiang Yi’s soul spirit was filled with sorrow. He ignored the giant palm and yelled out with a hysterically enraged roar!

Pong! Pong! Pong!

Fortunately, Jiang Yi had the ghost flames protecting his body, and the giant palm had been overly exhausted. The giant palm was scattered by a few bundles of the ghost flames before vanishing completely.

“Jiang Yi, I am sorry. I can only help you this much…”

Jiang Yi’s mind was still echoing with Jiang Bieli’s final message. Unknowingly, Jiang Yi’s face was already drenched in tears. Despite having all the bones in his lower body shattered and suffering from severe injuries, he still crawled out and prostrated on the ground as he bellowed, “Fa… ther!”

Jiang Bieli used his death to neutralize all the resentment and hatred that Jiang Yi had towards him.

A man, who was willing to die for his own son, was a man that deserved respect from anyone.

“Run—!”

Dugu Qiu, who was in the air, had eyes that were filled with fear. The Heaven Fate Great Array had been destroyed, and they could no longer produce another Heaven Monarch expert’s image. Ji Tingyu was right… they had lost. They lost in the hands of a father who was willing to use his life to exchange for his son’s survival.

“Die!”

Jiang Yi’s head abruptly lifted up while his blood red eyes locked onto Dugu Qiu in mid-air. His body poured out with powerful killing aura and immobilized Dugu Qiu.

Jiang Yi’s legs couldn’t move, but his hands could still move. He slammed on the ground and flew up while the ghost flames tumbled out from the Fire Spirit Pearl. Before he even got near to Dugu Qiu, the horrifically high temperature had incinerated Dugu Qiu.

Bang!

A charred and incomplete corpse fell down along with Jiang Yi’s body.

The Stellarsky Continent’s uncrowned ruler, a formidable martial artist, Dugu Qiu, dead!
