Chapter 736: Real or Fake Dao Integration

“You must have a death wish!” Jiu You’s killing intent rose dramatically. Why would he worry so much since he was not in the Winter Valley now? His frantic killing intent domain crushed Di Jiu.

Di Jiu did not even bother moving. He would not have been afraid of Jiu You even if Ling Xiaoshuang had not been there. At most, he would have escaped if he could not beat him. Could Jiu You even catch up to him?

Ling Xiaoshuang would not allow Jiu You to attack Di Jiu. Likewise, her Dao Integration domain swept around without reservation.

“You’ve restored your Dao Integration strength...” Jiu You immediately understood that Ling Xiaoshuang’s strength had been restored. Otherwise, she would not have had such a strong domain aura.

The domains of Jiu You and Ling Xiaoshuang clashed. A sound erupted in the void, and a tremor went through the entire space.

Among the three of them, Di Jiu had the lowest cultivation level. However, he had the strongest Spiritual Force and senses. Jiu You and Ling Xiaoshuang were both inferior to him. As soon as Jiu You and Ling Xiaoshuang’s domains collided, Di Jiu, who did not join the fight, sensed clearly that Jiu You’s domain was very different from Ling Xiaoshuang’s domain.

Crack, crack! The continuous shattering of the domain laws echoed in the void. Inch by inch, Jiu You’s domain shattered while Ling Xiaoshuang’s domain remained unaffected.

Immediately, Di Jiu sensed the change in the Heaven Earth Law in the surrounding space. Jiu You’s Dao Integration laws and Ling Xiaoshuang’s laws were completely different. Actually, these two kinds of Dao Integration laws were on two completely different levels.

This made Di Jiu frown slightly. Since they were both at Dao Integration, it wouldn’t be much different even if Jiu You was not as good as Ling Xiaoshuang, right?

There had to be something wrong with that. Maybe Jiu You’s Dao Integration was fake. Di Jiu had not felt what a Primordial Chaos domain was like, let alone what a Dao Integration domain was like. Thanks to the few experts he had encountered, he had no idea why that was the case.

Di Jiu frowned, while Ling Xiaoshuang was stupefied. She had thought she would not be weaker than Jiu You, but when her domain had collided with Jiu You’s domain simultaneously, his domain had shattered. On the other hand, her domain had completely crushed his domain. Could Jiu You not be at Dao Integration?

Stunned, Ling Xiaoshuang did not do anything for a while. Likewise, Jiu You was completely startled. Even if Ling Xiaoshuang was at Dao Integration, it would not be possible to crush him...

In fact, Ling Xiaoshuang’s domain had crushed his domain.

An image suddenly flashed in Jiu You’s mind. When he had just reached the Chaos Realm, an extremely old man had told a Dao Integration cultivator, “You’re just a fake Dao Integration weakling. How dare you covet my thing...”

Immediately, the old man had slapped him, turning the Dao Integration cultivator into scraps. At the time, he had thought that the old man should most likely be at the third step. Thus, he had not thought too much of it. Now, he thought the old man could very likely be a Dao Integration cultivator.

Just like that Dao Integration man had said, one of them was at true Dao Integration while the other was not.

Jiu You reacted almost instantly, so he was most likely the fake one. When he realized that he was not Ling Xiaoshuang’s match, he immediately launched his escape technique. However, Jiu You headed toward Di Jiu. Even though Ling Xiaoshuang was stronger than him, as long as she did not react faster than him, he could easily grab Di Jiu as he escaped.

He was sure that Di Jiu had a huge secret.

Upon seeing Jiu You actually escape toward him, Di Jiu sneered and drew his Heavenly Aqua Saber before sending a saber move out.

While the saber flares ripped apart the void, Jiu You could clearly hear his domain shattering in the void. The surrounding Heaven Earth Law changed and he immediately sensed that his escape technique had halted, revealing him from the void.

“Old thing, I’ve wanted to beat you up for a long time, yet you still dared to come over!” Di Jiu had sent a fist move out.

Furious waves roared and peaks gathered!

Di Jiu did not send out three Fist Mountains but continuous rows of peaks and waves.

He was ecstatic that he had finally merged the Furious Waves and Gathering Peaks.

With this fist move, anything that stood before him would turn into ashes, which was exactly like the entire space in the palace turning into dust.

A kind of deathly aura swept over, shocking Jiu You. He had been blind. Was Di Jiu at Dao Birth? He was clearly a half-step Dao Integration expert. No, Di Jiu was not weaker than him.

The previous saber move had broken his escape technique’s divine power, and this fist move blended with that saber move without any stagnation. It was no wonder that he was not afraid in the Winter Valley. Indeed, he was really not afraid, but it was not because he was a Primordial Dao Alchemy Deity.

Frantic peaks and waves swept over again and again. Jiu You did not grab Di Jiu but had to take out his Brilliant Support Loop.

Unfortunately, as soon as he took out his Brilliant Support Loop, Ling Xiaoshuang struck with her Palm Sword. Before the Palm Sword could land on him, that deep, cold killing intent penetrated his Spiritual Sea and consciousness deeply.

A hint of despair flashed deep in Jiu You. Compared to his domain, Di Jiu’s domain was not weaker and Ling Xiaoshuang’s domain was much stronger.

At the moment, he had no chance of escaping whatsoever.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Jiu You slashed with his Brilliant Support Loop at Ling Xiaoshuang’s Palm Sword. Since Ling Xiaoshuang was clearly stronger than Di Jiu, he might still survive if Di Jiu attacked him. Otherwise, he would definitely have his soul annihilated.

Boom! Bam! Bam! Bam!

Just as Jiu You’s Brilliant Support Loop stopped Ling Xiaoshuang’s Palm Sword, Di Jiu’s fist ripple bound Jiu You’s body.

Crack! The Brilliant Support Loop had been sent flying by Ling Xiaoshuang’s Palm Sword. Jiu You opened his mouth to spit out a trail of blood arrows. Every inch of his bones broke and cracks appeared in his Spiritual Sea.

Although Jiu You had suffered serious injuries, he had still stopped Ling Xiaoshuang’s Palm Sword. Unfortunately, Di Jiu’s fist peaks and waves bound Jiu You like a sea of anger.

Jiu You’s physical body was like an overinflated ball, and the blood mists formed a light red color in the void.

Di Jiu’s Divine Essence handprint was about to grab Jiu You’s Principal Spirit. What Di Jiu had not expected was that when he extended his handprint, Jiu You would self-explode.

Jiu You, who had lost his physical body, could not affect Ling Xiaoshuang even if he exploded. As for Di Jiu, there was almost no effect on him due to his Sacred Body.

Clank! A ring landed on the ground. Since only Jiu You’s Principal Spirit had exploded and its intensity was weak, his ring did not explode.

“This is my ring.” Ling Xiaoshuang picked it up immediately as she spoke excitedly. In addition to the thing in her Spiritual Sea, the ring in her hand only had an ordinary low-grade divine weapon. It did not contain any good stuff.

“It looks like I was right. This old thing plotted against you. Unfortunately, we let him off easily by allowing him to self-explode,” Di Jiu said with a sigh.

“Big Brother Di, thank you.” Ling Xiaoshuang bowed before Di Jiu. Without him, she might have died in Jiu You’s clutches instead of taking back her ring.

Di Jiu said with a smile, “This is the result of our cooperation. If it hadn’t been for you, nothing would have happened to Jiu You. However, I’m puzzled about one thing. You and Jiu You are both at Dao Integration. Why is your strength on a different level than Jiu You? Well... Your Dao Integrations are essentially different.”

Di Jiu did not spout nonsense. Without Ling Xiaoshuang, he reckoned that he would have been just a bit weaker than Jiu You. Of course, what puzzled him the most was why the difference was so great even though Ling Xiaoshuang and Jiu You were both at early-stage Dao Integration...
