Primordial Era: The Way of the Three Lights and Stars

Chapter 47: Battle Against Da Yi (Part 047)

Previously, everyone only knew Wei Guang as the chief of the Jie Sect, but from now on, Wei Guang is Wei Guang, the Xuan Guang Daoist, not just the chief of the Jie Sect who is just a figurehead.

With just this one strike, Wei Guang was enough to be remembered and to be addressed as a fellow Daoist by many Quasi-Saints, because for him, becoming a Quasi-Saint was only a matter of time.

"Bang!"

Before the sword shadow arrived, the star exploded first, but not because of Wei Guang's sword, but because Da Yi transformed into a giant ten thousand feet tall and broke through the star.

At this moment, Wei Guang was like an ant in front of the towering Yi.

Facing Wei Guang's sword, Da Yi was completely unafraid. He clenched his right fist, and the power of law surged on his fist as he fiercely slammed it towards the giant sword.

Upon the collision of the two forces, time and space seemed to stand still. However, in just one second, terrifying energy fluctuations spread outwards from the point of intersection.

"Rumble..."

Wherever the aftershocks passed, stars exploded and turned into endless dust, and no stars could be seen in the vast sky.

Now let's look at Wei Guang and Da Yi.

Wei Guang wasn't greatly affected, though his face was flushed from the turmoil of his blood, while Da Yi looked rather miserable.

His entire right arm was obliterated by that sword strike, turning him into a one-armed sorcerer.

Don't underestimate just an arm.

Starfall is one of the two deadly divine abilities that Wei Guang comprehended. It is based on the laws of stars and supplemented by the laws of swordsmanship. It uses the power of stars as its source and has the profound power to annihilate essence, energy and spirit.

It can be considered an upgraded version of the Three Realms Nirvana Divine Light.

In other words, the enemy was a Great Witch of the Witch Clan at the Great Luo Perfection level. Any other ordinary Great Luo Perfection level cultivator would have been certain to die without a top-tier defensive spiritual treasure.

They don't even have the chance to be reincarnated.

Da Yi was able to survive primarily because of the suppression of his cultivation level, and secondly because of the powerful physique of the Wu Clan. A Great Wu Clan member at the Great Luo Perfection realm possessed a physical strength comparable to a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.

However, although Wei Guang's attack only seemed to have destroyed one of Da Yi's arms, the real injury was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

This was evident from the rare solemnity that appeared in Da Yi's eyes.

For the Wu tribe, losing an arm was not a serious injury; it could be healed in an instant. However, after trying, Da Yi was shocked to discover that his arm could not be regenerated.

It seemed as if some kind of energy was preventing his severed arm from regenerating, and that energy was also constantly eroding his body. If this condition was not resolved, death was only a matter of time.

"Da Yi".

In the underworld, upon seeing that Wei Guang's enemy was actually Da Yi, Jiu Feng and the others stood up, their eyes filled with a mixture of surprise and worry.

After the war between the Lich King and the Lich King, Yi disappeared. They thought he had perished in the war, but they never expected that he was still alive.

This was an absolutely fantastic surprise for them.

However, for some reason, Da Yi ended up going up against the leader of the Jie Sect, which is a bit of a headache.

The current Wu clan cannot withstand any further turmoil, especially since the opponent is a disciple of a sage. Although Houtu Ancestral Witch has also attained enlightenment, she cannot leave the underworld due to her unique method of attainment.

If they anger Tongtian, their Wu clan will probably have no choice but to remain forever confined to the underworld.

However, they could also see that Da Yi's condition was obviously not right, and there must be some misunderstanding hidden in it, and perhaps there was still a chance to explain.

Just as the group was about to leave the underworld and head to the starry sky, a voice suddenly rang in their minds.

"Go to the stars, assist Wei Guang in capturing Da Yi, and bring him back alive."

"Yes."

Jiufeng and the others naturally knew who the voice belonged to. They all bowed towards the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and then tore through space and headed towards the starry sky.

Upon seeing the group of great shamans leave the underworld for the starry sky, the powerful beings from all corners of the primordial world immediately became interested.

In the final battle between the Lich and the Demon Clan, the Lich Clan was utterly defeated and forced to retreat from the prehistoric world and hide in the underworld. Now, are they about to clash with the Jie Sect again?

Interesting, very interesting. It's as if they're afraid their race won't perish.

"Star...extinguished."

Wei Guang did not become complacent and think he had the victory in the bag just because Da Yi lost an arm. After the first attack, he immediately used his second supernatural power.

Star Extinction primarily utilizes the laws of swordsmanship, supplemented by the laws of stars. It also draws upon the power of stars as its source of power, but in terms of instantaneous destructive force, it far surpasses Starfall.

Because of the karma of Houtu bestowing treasures, he will not kill Da Yi, but only if his own safety is guaranteed. To meet this condition, he must first make Da Yi completely lose the ability to resist.

As the words "Star Destruction" were uttered, Wei Guang swept out the measuring ruler in his hand.

A dazzling arc-shaped sword light appeared, and countless stellar powers rushed into it, making its power even stronger. Wherever it passed, space cracked layer by layer as if a mirror had shattered.

The overwhelming power of the stars and the terrifying aura of the swordsmanship made one feel as if they were actually there, even though they were in the primordial wilderness.

"Chief of the Jie Sect, not bad, we will meet again."

Just then, Da Yi suddenly gave a wicked smile, and as the last word fell, his figure turned into specks of dust and completely disappeared into the starry sky.

Wei Guang: ? ? ?

Wei Guang was truly dumbfounded. He was certain that Da Yi wasn't some kind of projection or clone, yet the other party had simply vanished so mysteriously. It was truly outrageous.

Even if someone is helping him behind the scenes, there should at least be some magic power and spatial fluctuations, right? How did he manage to do that?

But none of these were true, which completely overturned Wei Guang's understanding.

"Rumble..."

Wei Guang's sword strike lost its target, ultimately turning a patch of starry sky into nothingness before dissipating. However, Wei Guang had no intention of paying attention to the power of this sword strike at this moment.

He was frowning, pondering the meaning of Da Yi's words.

Whether Da Yi said it himself or someone behind him, his last words were enough to prove that the other party knew his identity.

In other words, the other party was indeed targeting him.

However, apart from Randeng, Wei Guang had never offended any other powerful figures. It wasn't that he looked down on Randeng; Randeng, after all, didn't possess such bizarre methods.

As for the two Western Saints...

Perhaps it was a tactic for them to conceal their true abilities, but Wei Guang thought it was unlikely. Those two weren't inherently bad; at most, they would try to lure him to the West, but they would never actually kill him.

So the question is, who exactly wanted to kill him?

"Senior Brother..."

Just then, the fastest, Yu Yixian, arrived first. However, seeing that the battle was over and Da Yi was nowhere to be seen, he looked slightly embarrassed.

Wei Guang was taken aback and asked, "Why are you here?"

Yu Yixian scratched her head somewhat awkwardly: "I wanted to come and help, but it looks like I'm late."

Upon hearing this, Wei Guang smiled.

Although the other party arrived late, their sincerity is more important than anything else. At least it proves that he truly remembers all the kindness he had shown him before.
