Journey to the West: Man in heaven, working nine to five

#1485 - Di Ting: Can you give me some respect?

Chu Hao mustered all his focus to face Di Ting this time.

This wasn't some low-level realm defying challenge; this was a battle reaching the Quasi-Sage realm, and nearly two levels above!

Although Chu Hao felt he had no rivals at the Fifth Stage Quasi-Sage level, his spiritual energy's quality wouldn't change until he stepped into the Sixth Stage.

Di Ting was a genuine High-Level Quasi-Sage, possibly only at the Seventh Stage, but even the early Seventh Stage was an immensely powerful opponent for Chu Hao.

Chu Hao was completely focused, gritting his teeth as he stared at Di Ting before him.

Di Ting, however, wore a face of disdain, a hint of mockery on his lips.

"Jail God Chu Hao, I must admit you are indeed a clever man. You actually stirred up the Three Realms and even ruined my Five Turbid Evil World with your cunning schemes."

"However, you must know that a little cleverness is far from enough in this world. The weak are prey to the strong; the strong are respected. Only those who stand at the very peak are qualified to manipulate the game!"

"Otherwise, no matter how painstakingly you plot and scheme, everything will fall apart with a gust of wind. Wouldn't that be a joke?"

Di Ting used an arrogant tone, condescendingly mocking Chu Hao.

Chu Hao's expression remained calm. "That depends on who's doing the blowing."

Di Ting didn't react for a moment.

Chu Hao seized the opportunity, and the God-Slaying Spear lashed out suddenly.

Chu Hao didn't dare to be careless or test the waters. He poured a large amount of spiritual energy directly into the attack, even incorporating the weapon spirit's power.

This strike was definitely not something a Fifth Stage Quasi-Sage could withstand. Even a Sixth Stage Quasi-Sage would have to avoid its edge.

However, Di Ting remained unperturbed, watching the spear strike with indifference.

The next moment, Di Ting casually extended a claw, blocking the God-Slaying Spear.

Chu Hao raised an eyebrow, surprised that Di Ting was so arrogant as to use his flesh and blood to resist his supreme treasure?

However, when Chu Hao's spear struck Di Ting, he realized that Di Ting's confidence was justified.

The moment Chu Hao's God-Slaying Spear pierced Di Ting's palm, his expression changed drastically.

This spear clearly possessed the power to shatter half a continent, but when it struck the palm, it was as if a mud ox had entered the sea, all power vanishing without a trace, barely breaking the surface skin.

Di Ting sneered, "Not bad at all. A Fifth Stage Quasi-Sage can actually break my skin… But if that's all the power you have, then you… Ah!!!"

Just as Di Ting was about to utter a few taunts, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his soul, followed by his entire soul trembling and spasming in agony!

It hurt, it hurt so much!

Chu Hao smirked. Who goes into a fight without a helmet?

No, even if you wore a helmet, it wouldn't stop this soul power attack.

Damage to the soul was something even High-Level Quasi-Sages had to be wary of.

Chu Hao seized the opportunity and pressed his attack, summoning all his equipment without any regard for coordination.

The Chaos Bell, the God-Slaying Spear, the Myriad Manifestations Cloud… All the high-level magical treasures were unleashed as if they were free.

For a time, the sky rained flowers, and the earth crumbled.

However, Di Ting was not just anyone. As a High-Level Quasi-Sage, he possessed abilities that all Low-Level Quasi-Sages lacked.

Di Ting waved his beast claw in the air, and with that seemingly effortless wave, Chu Hao felt that all the magical treasures he had launched were hitting a wall.

Even though all the surrounding spiritual energy had been suppressed by his Chaos Bell, why was there always a mysterious force blocking him, blocking all his attacks?

Chu Hao refused to believe it and drove all his magical treasures, unleashing a full-force attack!

The demonic black dragon unleashed by the God-Slaying Spear roared past as if to devour the sky, carrying countless precious and powerful magical treasures.

Even if a star in the sky were hit by this attack, it would only explode on the spot, shattering into pieces.

However, Di Ting's eyes were cold as he said in a sinister voice:

"Jail God Chu Hao, you still don't know the difference between a High-Level Quasi-Sage and a Low-Level Quasi-Sage."

"Let me tell you what a true supreme expert is!"

The next moment, Di Ting waved his hand.

Chu Hao clearly saw the space in front of the God-Slaying Spear ripple. The attack that could shatter stars fell into the ripples and sank directly into them, without even causing a ripple in the air.

Chu Hao couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth. For a moment, he suspected that Di Ting was cheating?

Such a powerful attack could be easily dissipated in the air?

Chu Hao also keenly captured the changes just now.

Space. It seemed that Di Ting had manipulated space to create some kind of change, which easily dispelled all his attacks.

Di Ting saw the shock in Chu Hao's eyes and couldn't help but laugh triumphantly.

"You seem to have figured it out? Heh, no wonder you are a gifted person. That's right, this is the difference between a High-Level Quasi-Sage and an ordinary Quasi-Sage."

"The power of space, a Dao that only High-Level Quasi-Sages who have touched the Saint Realm are qualified to cultivate!"

"If you reach the Saint Realm and cultivate the Great Dao of Space-Time, you can be like Dao Ancestor, with boundless years, immortal for eternity, free and unrestrained within and without the Three Realms!"

Chu Hao raised his eyebrows high, secretly thinking how terrifying it was.

So the High-Level Quasi-Sages cultivated the Dao of Space. No wonder the High-Level Quasi-Sages of the Three Realms and Six Paths don't appear often. With the Dao of Space, they can come and go freely within and without the Three Realms.

And if you enter the Saint Realm, you can even cultivate the Dao of Time…

This seems to be the right path of cultivation for the Three Realms and Six Paths. It is said that there are also those who become Dao by severing the three corpses, but so far, there seems to be only Hongjun Dao Ancestor.

Wait, what about the Dao of the Soul?

Is that a crooked path?

Chu Hao was lost in thought.

Di Ting's eyes were full of anger. A great battle was at hand, and he was still distracted? Was he not giving him any respect?

Di Ting took a deep breath, his eyes cold.

"The Dao of Space-Time is supremely grand. Only by controlling the Dao of Space-Time can one ascend to the Great Dao… However, I'm afraid you won't be able to experience it."
