it was a summoning talisman of death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Qian Yao was just affected by the slaughter aura of Ding Huan's Moon-Falling Arrow and was already so nervous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he was solidly locked onto by the killing intent of the Moon-Falling Arrow, threatening his vitality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the arrow-intent killing intent gathered by the Moon-Falling Arrow became stronger, the unease in Yue Jinya's heart became increasingly uncontrollable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The arrow-intent killing intent almost condensed into substance, tearing through his domain and infiltrating his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cold sweat seeped out along his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this continued, he would surely die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be reborn, he had spent almost all his heart's blood and resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For him to perish again—even if he could continue to be reborn through a remnant soul—was something he could not accept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, he had to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sacred Rune Dao could be abandoned, but he, Yue Jinya, absolutely could not perish again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet at this moment, Director Qian Yao's domain surged abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, he had been the one crushing Director Qian Yao's domain; his domain was almost about to tear Director Qian Yao's domain apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now the opponent's domain surged powerfully, and it was actually not weaker than his domain at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the crazy slaughter-intent pressure brought by Ding Huan's Moon-Falling Arrow, Yue Jinya felt his space being compressed, and cracks appeared in his domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some Sacred Rune Dao cultivators in the distance who saw the situation was not right began to retreat carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they ran into Min Ji Yuan, this guy who didn't talk about martial virtue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Min Ji Yuan had received Ding Huan's order; he didn't care about cultivation levels—whoever he ran into, he killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let alone ordinary disciples, even the current Sect Master of the Sacred Rune Dao, Yue Jinya's disciple Jiu Jiu Hechan, was directly killed by Min Ji Yuan after being schemed against by Xing Jia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sacred Rune Dao's protective arrays were all destroyed by Xing Jia, and no one in the Sacred Rune Dao dared to stay, fleeing frantically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Jinya was now unable to protect himself; even though he knew the Sacred Rune Dao was being destroyed, he didn't even dare to divert his divine sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides Ding Huan's terrifying Moon-Falling Arrow, Director Qian Yao's Sage-Slaughtering Plate was also unleashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sage-Slaughtering Plate was like a slaughter space; before it even locked onto Yue Jinya, the terrifying death-slaughter laws filled Yue Jinya's heart with regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shouldn't have come out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he shouldn't have listened to Zhuo Hong saying Ding Huan hadn't attained Sagehood yet, so he didn't take him seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuo Hong could die if she wanted, but he had been harmed miserably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't keep looking for opportunities; he had to leave, leave now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dao-rhyme aura of the wheel rune in Yue Jinya's hand suddenly surged, and in that instant, Director Qian Yao's Sage-Slaughtering Plate space was blasted open a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could Director Qian Yao not know Yue Jinya was about to leave? She knew she couldn't stop him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She just didn't know if Ding Huan could seize this opportunity, but Ding Huan's cultivation was still a bit weak; he shouldn't be able to see such an opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just had better luck; he not only had a supreme treasure like the Universe Pot, but also the Heaven and Earth Bow and the Moon-Falling Arrow...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost as soon as Director Qian Yao's thought emerged, Ding Huan's Moon-Falling Arrow was shot out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of space being torn apart could be heard by almost everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the arrow-intent killing intent of the Moon-Falling Arrow, space seemed to disappear at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time also stagnated at this moment; the space where Yue Jinya was, Yue Jinya's body, and Yue Jinya's wheel rune all seemed to freeze at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though she was joining forces with Ding Huan, Director Qian Yao still felt her scalp tingle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan not only grasped the timing perfectly, but after this arrow was shot, it was even more threatening than when it hadn't been shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone who has used an arrow as a magic treasure knows that an arrow is most threatening when it hasn't been shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan achieved the feat of the arrow being more threatening after it was shot; that was because Ding Huan's arrow actually fused space laws and time laws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When this arrow was shot, besides the arrow-intent killing intent becoming increasingly fierce and the deathly aura condensing into substance,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>time became infinitely slow after this arrow was shot, and space also seemed to disappear after this arrow was shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Qian Yao cast aside her thoughts of wariness toward Ding Huan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she couldn't seize the opportunity at this moment, then her title of \"Venerable\" was a bit too hollow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The slaughter space of the Sage-Slaughtering Plate locked onto Yue Jinya again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan's Moon-Falling Arrow slammed into the black wheel rune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The black rune wheel, already affected by Ding Huan's space-time laws, stopped completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Jinya, in terror, threw a punch at the Sage-Slaughtering Plate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hand was twisted into blood mist by the slaughter laws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A huge green sword screen descended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Puff!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sword screen formed by Director Qian Yao's green sword split Yue Jinya from the head down, tearing him directly into two halves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Qian Yao subconsciously held back her sword momentum and did not go to crush Yue Jinya's primordial spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Jinya took advantage of this gap, and his primordial spirit disintegrated and vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kua Chen, who was still guarding here, knew very well that Yue Jinya shouldn't have been crushed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main reason Yue Jinya escaped was that Director Qian Yao didn't lock onto his primordial spirit, giving Yue Jinya the chance to disintegrate his own primordial spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Yue Jinya would definitely find a way to be reborn from the remnant souls he had left behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This person is so strong.\" Director Qian Yao retracted her green sword and Sage-Slaughtering Plate, her tone carrying some feigned shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Huan's Moon-Falling Arrow turned, and Yue Jinya's wheel plate appeared in Ding Huan's hand, then disappeared along with the Moon-Falling Arrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he not know Director Qian Yao's thoughts?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason this woman didn't go all out to crush Yue Jinya's primordial spirit and residual soul thoughts was because she was worried his next arrow would be aimed at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, from the beginning, he knew it was impossible to kill Yue Jinya cleanly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relying on others is ultimately not as reliable as relying on oneself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But finishing off the current Yue Jinya meant that even if this guy recovered, it would be who knows when.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ding Huan put away Yue Jinya's magic treasure, Director Qian Yao twitched her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just now it was she and Yue Jinya fighting to the death, but now the spoils of war belonged to Ding Huan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet she couldn't really say anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Yue Jinya had the ability to disintegrate his own primordial spirit just now; the main responsibility was hers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She held back her strength because she was worried about Ding Huan's other two arrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew about sharp weapons like the Heaven and Earth Bow, which came with three arrows: Sun-Falling, Moon-Falling, and Star-Falling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the other two arrows were all shot at her, and Xing Jia helped out on the side, she might really be heavily injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Joining forces with someone like Ding Huan meant being under the other party's calculations at every turn; she had to be careful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just at this moment, Xing Jia came out of the Sacred Rune Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was in a very good mood:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This old fellow bullied me, Old Jia, as if no one else had friends.
