Chapter 217: The Completed Saber Array

Since the geocentric pattern gold was made into a house, the quantity was naturally quite substantial. Even if Di Jiu refined 2,000 or 3,000 weapons, he would not use up even half of it.

As he stood beside the geocentric pattern gold house, Di Jiu gave up after burning it for half an hour with his Dao fire. Although the geocentric pattern gold could be refined into weapons, his level-six Dao fire was too weak. Judging by his progress, it would take him more than 10 years to finish refining over 2,000 low-grade spirit weapons.

His Dao fire had to level up…

Actually, that’s not right. Di Jiu scolded himself. Had he not gone there because of the pulsation of his Dao fire? The threat of the Principal Spirit shadow had made him forget his main objective.

Why hadn’t he found the cause of his Dao fire’s pulsation? Di Jiu checked out his Dao fire. It was indeed not pulsating.

He frowned as he thought about when he had first arrived there. When he entered the two spirit meridians, the temperature rose. However, before he could react, he was dragged into the house…

If the temperature had risen, there had to be something special within the two spirit meridians.

Di Jiu walked thousands of feet forward. When he reached the front end of the spirit meridians, he felt weird, even though the space had not become hotter. Half an hour after he pushed his Spiritual Force out, he discovered something different. Within these two spirit meridians was another invisibility array. This invisibility array was higher than level nine. The two spirit meridians were also providing it with a spirit source, thus causing his Spiritual Force to miss it.

It was a good thing that his Spiritual Force had broken through to level nine. If it had still been at level eight, no matter how thoroughly Di Jiu checked this place, he would still probably not sense the invisibility array.

This invisibility array was above level nine, so Di Jiu estimated that he probably would not be able to break it himself.

If this was a level-nine invisibility array, a Level-Nine Array King like Di Jiu would be able to break it. However, level nine and level 10 had a completely different nature altogether.

Fortunately, the arrangement of this invisibility array was somewhat lacking, as the Principal Spirit shadow had not expected that anyone would come while she was arranging it. That’s why the array merely used the two spirit meridians as a spirit source instead of condensing the world’s Spirit Qi as a spirit source.

Di Jiu took out a bunch of array flags and quickly opened the Defense Arrays of the spirit meridians before adding them into his Small World.

After he collected its spirit source, the two spirit meridians and the level-10 invisibility array became visible. Without a spirit source, even a level-100 array would be a mere decoration.

Di Jiu was not curious about the level-10 invisibility array, but about the green flower bud in the middle of it. There should have been a flame. Why was there a flower bud instead?

When Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force investigated it closely again, he discovered that it was not a flower bud. He suddenly thought of a type of flame called the Corral Spirit Flame.

Di Jiu naturally knew all about the characteristics of the Corral Spirit Flame, which was a rich flame that normal people could never support. This type of flame increased its own level by absorbing the world’s Spirit Qi. This type of Spirit Qi could not be provided by just any spirit meridian or spirit stone. It required a top-notch spirit herb or spiritual ores.

If this was really a Corral Spirit Flame, when its owner died, it would automatically revert into a flower bud. After some time, the Corral Spirit Flame would become a small flame again, until it was eventually picked up by someone else.

If this was a Corral Spirit Flame, that would explain why the spiritual plants were all withered. They must have been absorbed by the flame.

This explained the invisibility array as well. A Corral Spirit Flame required a spirit herb to level up. Unless hidden by the invisibility array, a high-level spirit herb would be too wise to grow next to a flame.

After speculating that this was a Corral Spirit Flame, Di Jiu threw a level-seven spirit herb at it.

Indeed, when the green flower bud sensed the aura of the spirit herb, it jumped with its bud open and quickly became a green flame. The level-seven spirit herb that Di Jiu threw withered rapidly as the spiritual energy of the herb was absorbed by the Corral Spirit Flame.

Di Jiu’s Dao fire pulsated crazily again, obviously affected by the presence of the Corral Spirit Flame.

Di Jiu was delighted. This Corral Spirit Flame was way more valuable than the Shallow Fiend Flame that had been sold at the auction, as this was a Heavenly Flame.

Di Jiu did not consider this flame valuable just because it was a Heavenly Flame, but also because his Dao fire needed it. If it had not been for his Dao fire, he would not have wanted to acquire such a flame. If he got his hands on one, his only choice would be to sell it. He simply could not afford to keep such a rich flame.

Di Jiu’s gaze fell on the withered spirit herb garden. All the spirit herbs in the garden were there because of this flame, to allow it to level up. Di Jiu could not help feeling amazed by this generosity.

If this herb garden had been left there for the Corral Spirit Flame by the Principal Spirit Shadow, this meant that she really did have a Quintessential World with better spirit herbs inside.

What a pity that he had no way of knowing where the Quintessential World was… Di Jiu shook his head regretfully and threw down his Dao fire.

The Dao fire pounced straight at the Corral Spirit Flame.

The biggest advantage of a Corral Spirit Flame was its alchemy. It absorbed so much of the spiritual energy that the alchemy of a Corral Spirit Flame had a much higher success rate than any other flame.

This Corral Spirit Flame had to be at level eight. If its owner had still been around, it might have been able to fight against Di Jiu’s Luminous Starry Sky. However, now that its owner was gone, it simply couldn’t resist Di Jiu’s Dao fire.

Di Jiu could clearly feel the Dao fire’s happiness and excitement. His Dao fire was already at level six. In the process of absorbing the Corral Spirit Flame, the aura of his Dao fire became significantly stronger.

An hour later, the Dao fire gave off a crackle, appearing even greener than before.

When Di Jiu opened his palm, the Dao fire landed on it. Di Jiu was ecstatic. His Dao fire had reached level seven. Going from level six to level seven was also a change in nature.

Di Jiu threw out the two spirit meridians again. He could circulate the Galaxy Art while refining the weapons. Even though the speed was a bit slower this way, it would still be an improvement.

Level-Seven Luminous Starry Sky was totally different from Level-Six Luminous Starry Sky. When the Dao fire landed on the geocentric pattern gold this time, it melted rapidly.

The first weapon that Di Jiu refined was a middle-grade spirit weapon.

Di Jiu was delighted. This was not only because his blacksmithing skill had improved. The main reason was because the material used was the geocentric pattern gold. This was a level-nine material, so when it was combined with the level-seven Dao fire that he used for his blacksmithing, a Level-Nine Array King like him could carve better array engravings than normal blacksmiths.

The geocentric pattern gold kept getting melted by Di Jiu. One by one, the refined saber weapons were pushed aside.

The first few hundred sabers were still middle-grade spirit weapons. However, almost every saber afterwards was a high-grade spirit weapon.

Half a year later, Di Jiu’s cultivation level broke through to the eighth Void Spirit Realm Level. He could now occasionally refine a supreme-grade spirit weapon.

A year later, Di Jiu stopped refining sabers. According to his original plan, he would use over 2,000 low-grade sabers to create a level-seven Sky Screen Saber Array.

Di Jiu suddenly changed his mind. His cultivation level was already at the peak of the eighth Void Spirit Realm Level, so he just needed to try a little bit more to reach level nine.

When he finally cast the saber array, he could very well be at the first Pioneer Sea Realm Level.

If he was, his Quintessential Essence would experience a change in nature. The main energy used to control the saber array was Spiritual Force. Besides his Spiritual Force, his Quintessential Essence could not be too weak either. The Quintessential Essence of the Pioneer Sea Realm should be barely enough to control over 2,000 supreme-grade spirit weapons. However, these sabers had all been refined by Di Jiu himself, which made it easier and more cost-effective to control them.

Di Jiu wanted to use 49 supreme-grade sabers as the heart of the array, and 49 multiplied by 49 high-grade sabers as the saber array flags. While this was not as powerful as using only supreme-grade sabers, it was still way more powerful than his initial idea.

Furthermore, his Spiritual Force was still improving. As long as there was some Roast Divine Herb available, Di Jiu believed that his Spiritual Force would reach the tenth Pioneer Sea Realm Level.

Di Jiu displayed the 49 supreme-grade sabers. Thanks to the Spirit Combo Art, they immediately formed the array foundation of the level-seven Sky Screen Saber Array. The space transformed into a slaughtering Sky Screen. Even though the saber array flags were not out yet, the terrifying aura of the saber intent was already being concentrated in the Sky Screen.

Di Jiu exclaimed silently. This saber array was really powerful! If the saber array flags were inside as well, he wondered how terrifying the Sky Screen Saber Array would be.

When Di Jiu waved his hand again, 2,401 high-grade sabers flew out.

When these saber array flags flew out, they immediately were combined with the 49 saber array foundation flags and a huge Sky Screen Saber Array started spinning.

All around the space controlled by the Sky Screen Saber Array was saber intent. As the saber intent turned into saber strikes, everything within that space turned into dust. The turning saber intent was like a cyclone of death.

Crack! Crack! A series of cracking sounds were heard as a supreme-grade spirit meridian turned into dust in the Sky Screen Saber Array in front of Di Jiu.

Di Jiu felt a sign of fatigue in his Spiritual Sea. With a twist of his hand, he put away the over 2,000 sabers.

A supreme-grade spirit meridian had just been torn into shreds, yet Di Jiu did not feel sorry. Even Shu Haolan would not be able to escape if he was caught in this Sky Screen Saber Array, right?

However, given his current cultivation level, it was still not very realistic that he would trap a True Form Realm Cultivator in a saber array.

After putting away the over 2,000 sabers, Di Jiu felt a sense of fatigue in both his Quintessential Essence and his Spiritual Force.

He hastily sat down on the shredded spirit meridian to circulate the Galaxy Art.

In less than a month, he reached the ninth Void Spirit Realm Level.

Di Jiu did not stop. He continued to cultivate like a possessed man. He wanted to go out quickly, but he wanted to reach the Pioneer Sea Realm first.

Time passed while Di Jiu was cultivating. Two months later, he managed to reach the peak stage of the Void Spirit Realm.

Three months later, he was still at the peak of the Void Spirit Realm. Four months later, Di Jiu was still at the peak of the Void Spirit Realm…
