Chapter 601 - Heavenly Law Manifestation (1/2)
Zhou Xuanji resisted the discomfort in his eyes and flew at his fastest speed.
Every time the Overlord Saint caught up, he would use Sword Dao Rules and send him flying back.
“Why can’t I kill that fellow?” Zhou Xuanji deeply frowned. Facing the Overlord Saint, he could not think of any ways to deal with him.
Even his strongest combo, Sword Dao Rules and the Thunderclap Sword, could not kill the Overlord Saint. Even though he could pierce through the black shadow, it would quickly recover.
“He is far from his peak status. Looks like he has endured much torment, for him to become like this,” Dao Lord Xuantian said as he sighed. Back then, the Overlord Saint had been incredibly mighty and looked down at the countless worlds.
Zhou Xuanji was not in the mood to sympathize with the Overlord Saint; he was only thinking of how to get rid of him.
He did not know how Qiu Hu and the others were; had they been eaten by the Overlord Saint like Xuan Daoya had been?
At that moment, a figure of light suddenly descended from the dark sky.
The figure of light quickly sped over, passing by Zhou Xuanji’s body and shooting towards the Overlord Saint.
Boom!
Two fists met each other, causing the ground below to collapse. The Yellow Springs roiled and wild gales blew in all directions.
Zhou Xuanji stopped and looked over with a frown.
Who was that?
The figure of light began to intensely fight with the Overlord Saint. One figure of light and one shadowy figure, their fists and feet were fast to the extreme. They continuously unleashed all kinds of divine abilities, creating a grand scene.
Zhou Xuanji suddenly felt that that figure of light was somewhat familiar.
Soon, his expression changed.
It was actually him!
That figure of light was actually Yang Di!
Back then, in the Northern Wilderness, in order to pursue power, Yang Di had left following the Heavenly Law Stone. Zhou Xuanji had never thought that he would still be alive.
Zhou Xuanji quickly understood.
Yang Di represented heavenly law and the Overlord Saint represented destiny; this was a battle between the two concepts.
“Is he still the same person?” Zhou Xuanji wondered to himself. At this moment, Yang Di seemed incredibly powerful and domineering, seeming like the previous number one in the Northern Wilderness.
Even facing the Overlord Saint, Yang Di held the advantage.
A figure appeared beside Zhou Xuanji; it was Ren Niming.
He looked at the great battle ahead and said, “The manifestation of the heavenly law. Strange, why would he appear here? This is the Netherworld.”
Zhou Xuanji looked at him and asked, “What do you mean? This wasn’t instructed by the heavenly law?”
Ren Niming shook his head and said, “The Netherworld is controlled by reincarnation. Heavenly law has no consciousness and will not forcefully interfere with reincarnation. It seems that this fellow came of his own will.”
Zhou Xuanji felt quite startled.
Yang Di had come to save him?
He felt quite strange.
After thinking about it, there was not much friendship between him and Yang Di.
“Let’s leave first,” Ren Niming suggested. Zhou Xuanji did not have any objections to this. He could tell that Yang Di was stalling for time; after he left, the Overlord Saint would most likely disappear.
The two of them quickly left.
They did not directly leave the Netherworld, and they instead went to find Qiu Hu and Si Mengyan.
As for Xuan Daoya, Ren Niming laughed and said, “Don’t worry about him, he is just a soul and has many measures. It’s not that easy to kill him.”
…
Zhou Xuanji lightly nodded and asked, “Just what is going on? Is the Overlord Saint also controlled by destiny.”
Ren Niming answered, “Most likely. The Overlord Saint is delirious and destiny might have affected his will, making him hate you. In the future, there might be even more crazed experts hunting you down. After all, there are many creatures that have been devoured by destiny.”
Zhou Xuanji felt quite amazed; it seemed that destiny had gone crazy and was going all out to kill him.
What a crappy situation!
…
Within the world in the lotus, Jiang Xue, Zhou Xiaoxuan, Lady Zhaoxuan, and Daoya Old Man were gathered in a building.
Daoya Old Man was so excited that his face was red, and he drank a pot of wine as he said excitedly, “Xuan’Er, you’ve finally come back. How were you in the Netherworld?”
