Chapter 915 - 851: Rules Against Rules

How is this possible!

Di Liuxin’s face showed astonishment, but Jiang Xinyuan was even more shocked internally.

The thunder in his hand was obtained from that individual, and he was well aware of its power.

Even Jiu You had to avoid its sharpness on that day, and in the end, it took the Grand Hall Master of Yama Hall stepping in from across worlds to extract him.

And Han Yu just blocked it?

Under the thunder, Han Yu gritted his teeth tightly, and the Artifact Spirit in his Sea of Consciousness let out a long sigh of relief, starting to speak with a look of sheer luck.

"Fortunately, it can be blocked! No big issue."

Han Yu’s teeth were almost about to shatter, and upon hearing this, he nearly fainted.

"Do you even hear what you’re saying?"

No big issue?

His body was nearly about to fall apart.

Even if it hadn’t fallen apart, it was now riddled with holes, bleeding profusely.

The weight of the wise old man’s words was climbing sharply; it turns out there really is a means to break his physical body.

"The power of rules is like this, in fact, the power to break your physical body existed long ago."

The Artifact Spirit sighed helplessly, not having mentioned it before because it too thought there was no way such a means could appear.

"When did it appear?"

Han Yu was taken aback; he didn’t even know.

The Artifact Spirit’s expression was complex as it gave a reminder.

"My West River... Bah! My rules can break your physical body."

Exactly because it thought it was on the same side as Han Yu, it had never counted it in.

Han Yu was initially stunned but quickly reacted.

Indeed, the West River Slash could break his physical body!

It seemed from the time he used it till now, there was nothing the West River Slash couldn’t cut.

He quickly understood that although the West River Slash appeared to be in the form of a broadsword, it was like the power of a scepter or key, all materializing from his thoughts.

He visualized the West River Slash as a knife-like technique, and so it manifested as a broadsword.

It seemed every time he thrust the West River Slash into someone or something else, it was merely this power at work.

Therefore, if you really count it, the West River Slash was the earliest means to break his physical body.

The Artifact Spirit was most fortunate that Jiang Xinyuan’s thunder was incomplete, or more like a prototype.

"Rules are the most unreasonable; to counter rules, the best way is to use another rule. You’re lucky his rule is not perfect, allowing you to easily fend it off."

Han Yu’s face darkened; he was in such a sorry state, and this was considered lucky?

So, only leaving nothing behind would mean having bad luck, right?

"If you don’t want to suffer, quickly break through these rule-infused thunders."

The Artifact Spirit didn’t look at that dark face, turning instead to urge him.

"How do I break through?"

Han Yu retorted unhappily; this guy truly was making a virtue out of necessity.

The fact is, it truly was the case, because the Artifact Spirit itself had no good options, and when it came to practical combat, the ability might be its, but practical combat was definitely Han Yu’s strong suit.

So the Artifact Spirit awkwardly spoke, "Well, just improvise."

"You said it!"

Han Yu rolled his eyes and looked at the surrounding arcs of electricity and the thunder falling from above, pondering for a moment.

The next moment, Han Yu let out a furious shout and swung upwards fiercely; the thunder paused slightly, and he swiftly withdrew, pulling out his sword as he slashed horizontally toward the sky amidst the encircling electric arcs.

Instantly, a rain of golden petals fell all around, colliding with the different thunders, further depleting the flashing electric arcs.

"Damn!"

The Artifact Spirit widened its eyes and cursed.

The next moment, its expression turned anxious, "How did you do that?"

Han Yu continuously fended off the remaining thunder around him, speaking matter-of-factly.

"If he can infuse laws into thunder, I think it’s quite reasonable to use the West River Slash to deploy Divine Techniques, right?"

This makes no damn sense at all.

The Artifact Spirit thought to itself with a twisted face, because it never came up with this move.

Clearly this was its ability...

"You have to teach me this move."

The Artifact Spirit said, feeling wronged.

"Alright, we’ll talk after we escape."

Han Yu readily agreed, unable to resist glancing at the two dumbstruck individuals, before flashing a grin and, with a flicker, transforming back into Aurora.

"Not good!"

Jiang Xinyuan came back to his senses, his expression drastically changing.

The person was about to escape.

The next moment, the figure moved swiftly, turning into a blur.

Di Liuxin snapped back to reality in an instant, his expression ferocious, gritting his teeth as he gave chase.

How is he still alive—just how many life-saving tricks does this kid have left?

Is his life really that tough?

"We must kill him!"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xinyuan’s killing intent was even higher than his, with an indescribable murderous look on his face.

Di Liuxin had just heard Jiang Xinyuan say this by his side.

Just now, Han Yu’s techniques had already made Jiang Xinyuan unable to forgive him, and at this moment, Jiang Xinyuan’s inner turmoil was far more intense, not just a simple killing intent.

"He just resisted me with the power of rules, and it was complete rules at that."

This really made him unable to hold on inside.

He was struggling with incomplete power, how does this kid have the power to touch complete rules?

"If not killed, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Han Yu has too many tricks up his sleeve; each one alone is enough to make us experts jealous.

Yet, this kid monopolizes all of them.

If he rises up, will there be any path for us?

In an instant, their speed accelerated to the extreme, and Di Liuxin kept using techniques, continually disrupting the light ahead with waves of spiritual power.

Han Yu tried several times to unleash the Samsara, but those two old ghosts behind him wouldn’t give him a chance.

The encounters between them even in the blink of an eye could exchange multiple moves, mostly with Di Liuxin and Jiang Xinyuan attacking, while Han Yu bitterly faced them at the front.

"Damn it! Die!"

Han Yu, face dark, pivoted around, fiercely slashing backward with his unfamiliar saber.

Countless rays of light flashed, golden petal rain swiftly fell, but unfortunately, they easily dodged without any effect.

"Don’t waste time, just escape; rules are unbeatable, but they must hit to be useful."

The Artifact Spirit quickly urged, but it was already too late.

That momentary delay allowed those behind to rapidly catch up.

"Die!"

Di Liuxin’s Dharma Aspect merged, and immediately spiritual power surged, directly targeting Han Yu with a three-hundred-zhang extreme assault.

Jiang Xinyuan’s killing intent was fierce, continuously brewing thunder in his palm.

"Die!"

Suddenly, the Dharma Aspect crazily bombarded, relentlessly pursuing Han Yu, who initially wanted to rely on his ghostly body technique to distance himself, but didn’t expect Di Liuxin’s determination to kill him, constantly using various skills.

He used a trump card, repeatedly pinching finger techniques, and employing explosive methods.

In just a few fleeting moments, Di Liuxin had attacked him over twenty times, leaving visible wounds all over his body, and his internal organs tumbling constantly.

Han Yu flew backward for a mile, preparing to escape again, then Jiang Xinyuan’s thunder arrived.

This time, the falling lightning continuously split, leaving no chance for the opponent to defend.

Thunderlight trapped the area of several miles, then there was a roaring explosion...

...

"Is Han Yu really okay?"

Quan Xiaotong rushed over as soon as Mu Zili and others returned, but only Han Yu’s silhouette was absent.

Immediately, he anxiously asked, and after Mu Zili briefly explained, he sighed, "He let us withdraw first, likely has a way to escape."

Likely?

Quan Xiaotong’s expression was complex; if not for considering their cultivation, and Han Yu’s desire to draw people into Central Continent, he might have cursed.

What does ’likely’ mean, don’t they understand life and death are no child’s play?

Mu Zili naturally sensed his displeasure; even Quan Xiaotong’s expression explained everything.

He felt a rare embarrassment, given that the person responsible for rescue was still there, but they had fled first, which was indefensible.

"If he’s truly someone from the Heavenly Dao, likely the Heavenly Dao won’t sit idly by."

The old man suddenly mused, knowing more than the others.

If Han Yu is truly a figure pushed by the Heavenly Dao, then all his bizarre methods likely make sense.

Considering Han Yu’s current growth... ugh! His current abilities, certainly heavy investments must have been made.

It doesn’t make sense for him to die easily.

But it was this statement that made Quan Xiaotong feel Han Yu’s situation was more precarious, turning his face extremely ugly.

Similarly, others may not know, but only he knows there was no extensive nurturing by the Heavenly Dao.

Han Yu has always relied on his tricks and inner secrets to exchange; although Han Yu didn’t directly say it, he was close to indicating that Qi Fortune could boost his strength.

The Heavenly Dao had never acted once from beginning to end.

Because the Heavenly Dao had long disappeared.

This was a secret only he, Xia Wuyou, and Wang Ye knew, which had always been kept under wraps.

He wouldn’t even speak of it among Central Continent insiders, let alone casually tell Mu Zili and others.

So, the old man was blindly optimistic, while Quan Xiaotong’s heart sank to the bottom.
