1363 Nether King vs. Di Ting!
The Nether King Halberd was the weapon that accompanied Tian Cang in defeating countless enemies. Legend had it that it was made of a meteorite, which gave it its incomparable toughness and indestructible characteristic. However, this invincible weapon was defeated for the first time.
After being thrown out by Tian Cang, the halberd flew straight toward Di Ting, but before approaching its target, a terrible force stopped it.
A plume of black smoke, which was Nether energy, wrapped around the halberd, twisted it, and then a great force struck it hard. Fine lines instantly appeared across the halberd before it broke into countless pieces and fell from the sky, smas.h.i.+ng into the ground and creating countless holes.
The onlookers sucked in their breaths. In the first exchange between the two mighty experts, there was no doubt that Tian Cang had lost. No one expected his attack to be blocked with a single stroke. It didn’t even touch Di Ting’s body. The outcome was beyond their imagination.
The Nether Prison experts were greatly encouraged, while all the Patriarchs were very excited. After being repressed for so long, they finally had a chance to turn the tables around.
“Isn’t Tian Cang very arrogant? Isn’t he very strong? Now, even his best weapon has been smashed by Di Ting! Let’s see how he will continue doing whatever he wants!”
Di Ting Patriarch was truly the strongest man of Nether Prison. He just quietly pulled out a move, and it had already left everyone a little breathless. And his words, “If you kill her, I will destroy Earth Prison!” was really too domineering!
All the Nether Prison experts seemed to sense a different kind of feeling in those words. Di Ting Patriarch and Nether Puppeteer Patriarch had known each other the longest, and their long relations.h.i.+p had probably blossomed into something else.
Therefore, when they heard that, they all felt that he had come to avenge her, and he seemed to be saying, “If you dare kill my wife, I will destroy Earth Prison!”
“This is so exciting!”
All the Patriarchs were very excited.
Tian Cang’s eyes remained cold. However, he was also slightly taken aback. He could not believe that his halberd had been broken before it came near Di Ting. The material used to make this weapon was very precious. It was a meteoric iron, and it had taken Earth Prison immeasurable manpower and resources to craft it.
“Di Ting is indeed the strongest man in Nether Prison!”
Years ago, when he attacked Nether Prison and overwhelmed everyone, Di Ting was nowhere to be seen. At that time, he thought the so-called strongest man was afraid. Now, when he saw Di Ting’s power for the first time, he felt at once that he really deserved that reputation.
Bu Fang rose to his feet, raised his head, and looked at Di Ting in the sky. He was very curious about this mighty expert with a name he was familiar with.
Di Ting had a pleasant voice. It was warm, very much like Lord Dog’s gentle voice. However, when he used this voice to make that threat, it did not feel awkward at all.
At this moment, heaven and earth seemed to have lost their color, and everything disappeared, leaving only the huge figure wrapped in black smoke hovering in the sky. His every move seemed to be able to affect the world.
Bu Fang squinted at the figure. He heard that Di Ting was also trying to break through that realm. Now that he had come to Earth Prison, had he succeeded?
‘Lord Dog is also breaking through that realm. I wonder how his progress is?’
He turned to look behind him. In the Black Temple, the array was still in operation, and the huge vortex was constantly rotating. Bu Fang did not keep his eyes on them for too long, and he turned his attention back to the field.
This was a clash of the strongest experts of Earth Prison and Nether Prison. Known as the strongest man of Nether Prison, Di Ting was formidable enough to suppress countless small worlds. Tian Cang, on the other hand, was the strongest man of Earth Prison, the one who once attacked Nether Prison with an army and killed countless experts from the nine clans.
Both of them were full of legends. Now, as they finally met, a much-antic.i.p.ated battle was set to break out between them.
Tian Cang looked at Di Ting. Suddenly, the corner of his mouth twitched, and then his palm clenched again without hesitation. More blood flowed down from the top of Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s head, and she gave a faint groan.
Rumble!
The color of heaven and earth changed again at this moment.
“Didn’t you hear what I said? I said… stop it.” Di Ting’s warm voice rang again, but this time, it was much colder.
Undaunted, Tian Cang gave a sneer. “I won’t stop. If you’re not happy, fight me!”
With that, his eyes lit up, and he stomped his foot on the ground. The whole ground shook with a terrible rumble as if it were about to collapse. Holding Nether Puppeteer Patriarch in one hand, Tian Cang shot into the sky like a cannonball.
Tian Cang’s cultivation base seemed stronger than before after owning the Heaven Nether Puppet’s body. As he flew higher and higher, his aura, which was strong enough to suppress the skies, was also climbing. All of a sudden, he flung Nether Puppeteer Patriarch out.
The void seemed to crack, and Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s body was almost torn apart by a great force.
The next moment, Tian Cang unleashed his divine will. The fragments of the Nether King Halberd that fell to the ground immediately rose into the sky, whistling and clanging as they gathered in midair to form a brand new halberd.
At this moment, a shrill whistle echoed out, and a sword shot into the sky. In the blink of an eye, Sword Demon Patriarch, who had become a puppet, appeared in midair and blocked Tian Cang’s halberd for Nether Puppeteer Patriarch. However, his body was blown apart instantly!
All the Nether Prison Patriarchs recognized Sword Demon Patriarch. When they found that he had been made into a puppet, they were slightly taken aback, and their expressions turned rather unsightly. After that, the way they looked at Nether Puppeteer Patriarch was no longer so friendly.
Buzz…
An invisible force spread and caught Nether Puppeteer Patriarch. Without doing it in person, Di Ting had stopped her from flying further and even neutralized the power that Tian Cang had left in her.
Nether Puppeteer Patriarch drifted slowly and stopped in front of the black smoke. She looked very weak. Her head was almost crushed and covered with cracks. Her long eyelashes fluttered, then she opened her eyes and saw the black smoke in front of her.
“Di Ting… You… finally came…”
A hint of a smile came over Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s lips, and there seemed to be a wistful look in her eyes.
The black smoke swirling and shrouding around Di Ting made him look like he was full of mysteries, which inspired fear and respect in others. However, none of the respectful crowd noticed the strange expression on the face of a Great Saint standing beside Di Ting with his head bowed.
The threads in Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s chest had dried up. Suddenly, tentacles condensed of black energy reached out of the black smoke and touched her body as if it were caressing her.
“Where is your G.o.d’s Heart?”
A warm voice rang in Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s ears. Her eyelashes trembled, and then her eyes widened in disbelief.
“Didn’t you come here to save me?” The look on Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s face grew unsightly.
“Of course I came to save you… But we cannot afford to lose the G.o.d’s Heart as well.” Di Ting’s voice was still warm.
After hearing their conversation, the onlookers were puzzled. They found that the plot seemed somewhat different from what they had imagined.
“No! You came for the G.o.d’s Heart! You didn’t come to save me!” Nether Puppeteer Patriarch suddenly became agitated, and she roared with what little strength was left in her.
Tian Cang was about to attack, but after listening to that, he stopped.
The Nether Prison Patriarchs sucked in their breaths, while Bu Fang’s expression became slightly odd.
At this moment, Yellow Spring Great Sage landed beside Bu Fang and the others, holding a jade wine jar and taking a sip out of it. “Ever since the dawn of time, affection leaves nothing but regret, which lasts forever… What a good poem to perfectly match this scene,” he said, then burst out laughing, his eyes blurry.
This poem of his came out of the blue. Even Bu Fang didn’t expect Yellow Spring Great Sage, a vulgar guy who only knew how to play with gra.s.s, could recite a poem.
Er Ha was obviously also interested in Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s love affair. He looked on with great interest and a.n.a.lyzed to Bu Fang, “Young man, I think you’re in big trouble… It seems Di Ting came here not for that woman, but for the source stone Whitey took just now.”
“Whitey got that thing with its own strength. I’m not giving it back. Besides, how do you know Di Ting really didn’t come to save Nether Puppeteer Patriarch?” Bu Fang said with a straight face. “Please believe in the real sentiments of people. There are still real sentiments in the world.”
“Bah! What the f*ck are you talking about? There are real sentiments in the world?” Er Ha gave Bu Fang a sideways glance. He felt that this young man’s understanding of love was completely different from his.
In the sky, Nether Puppeteer Patriarch roared and coughed up blood. She was in really bad shape. A stream of black energy poured into her body, helping her stabilize the injury.
“Where is the G.o.d’s Heart?” Di Ting’s warm voice asked again.
However, Nether Puppeteer Patriarch only sneered and did not answer.
Di Ting let out a sigh with a note of helplessness in his voice.
When the Nether Prison Patriarchs heard the sigh, their hair stood on end.
“Have a good rest. We cannot lose the G.o.d’s Heart. I will get it back,” Di Ting said.
The next moment, a plume of black smoke seemed to turn into a rope, wrapping Nether Puppeteer Patriarch’s body and pulling her behind Di Ting. The Great Saint standing beside him hurried forward.
The atmosphere in the sky changed again. Di Ting fixed his eyes on Tian Cang.
“The G.o.d’s Heart? Do you think I have it or not?” Holding the Nether King Halberd, the corners of Tian Cang’s mouth curved slightly upward, revealing a sneer. He seemed to know what Di Ting wanted to ask him. As his voice spread, his aura began to soar rapidly and soon reached a very terrible level. At the same time, his metal body was also changing with his thoughts, becoming more burly.
Rumble!
He stomped his foot, shattering the void and filling the air with a deafening noise. The next moment, he raised the halberd and shot toward Di Ting like a meteor.
“Nether King Skyshatter Halberd, the First Halberd, Void Breaking!”
In the sky, terrible energy gathered into a huge halberd, sweeping toward Di Ting. In front of this huge halberd was Tian Cang, holding the actual halberd! As it approached, the void was shattered, and the air was filled with turbulence! The power of this attack was simply frightening!
Suddenly, a black dot shot out of the black smoke and flew toward the halberd. When they collided, Tian Cang’s long-planned attack collapsed in an instant!
Tian Cang’s eyes narrowed slightly. Although this move was destroyed, he was not in the least disturbed. He brandished his halberd and struck again.
“Nether King Skyshatter Halberd, the Second Halberd, Saint Slaughtering!”
Boom!
Another black dot flew out and blew his lethal strike apart again!
The battle in the sky astonished everyone. It didn’t seem to occur to anyone that the near-invincible Tian Cang would be overwhelmed.
However, the previous Nether King still did not give up, even though wisps of steam were already rising from his body.
“Nether King Skyshatter Halberd, the Third Halberd, G.o.d Slaying!” Tian Cang’s loud cry shook the skies.
The next moment, a huge halberd fell from the sky, striking toward Di Ting.
Looking at the attack, all the Nether Prison Patriarchs kept silent and did not dare to move. Its power was really dreadful! Tian Cang deserved to be called the strongest man of Earth Prison! His strength was not weaker than that of ten thousand years ago!
The power of the three halberds could simply destroy the world!
Er Ha’s eyes lit up as he watched his father use his famous killing skills. Bu Fang, too, was watching intently. This level of fighting was truly terrifying.
Di Ting stared at Tian Cang from the black smoke. After hearing the previous Nether King’s roar, he sneered in a warm voice.
“G.o.d slaying? You?”
The next moment, the black smoke slowly parted. A short, furry yellow-and-white paw reached out of it and lightly thrust toward Tian Cang’s strike.
“G.o.d slaying? You are too arrogant… I’m going to give you a good feel of a G.o.d right now!”
