Chapter 432: Take This!

Pfft! After Di Jiu was swept out of the cave by the violent wind, all the cultivators outside the cave were stunned.

“How’s this possible?” One of them finally reacted by mumbling.

Everyone knew what he meant. No one had gone into the Glazed Heaven Cave in the last couple of hours. The only possible explanation was that this man had gone into the cave a long time ago.

They all surrounded Di Jiu when they realized that he had entered the cave long ago.

Di Jiu stood up after swallowing a healing elixir pill. He was impressed by how tough his late-stage Immortal Divine Body was.

“Guys, step aside. I will do the questioning.” A strong voice was heard amidst the crowd. Everyone made way when they saw the man, as they all knew that he was Xiling Zai.

They stepped aside, even though they knew that there was a high possibility that Di Jiu had obtained the Glazed Heaven Immortal Fruit. No one dared to object.

Xiling Zai was only at the fifth-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm, so he was definitely not the strongest cultivator around. However, his father was no ordinary man. He was the Sect Master of the Buzhou Immortal Sect, Xiling Yuanyi, one of the five strongest Immortal Emperors in the Demonic Clothing Immortal Continent.

Although the Buzhou Immortal Sect would be inherited by Xiling Zai’s older brother, Xiling Pu, no one dared to underestimate him.

“Hand over your ring. I want to take a look at it.” Xiling Zai was pretty happy about the intimidation that his words caused. The surrounding cultivators had made way for him just because he had said a single sentence.

Di Jiu figured that Xiling Zai came from a powerful background. Otherwise, given the personality of the cultivators that would come to this place, they wouldn’t have made way for him.

The cultivators that stayed in the Lunar Immortal Sea for many years were basically people who lived their lives on the edge. None of them would give up something valuable to another person.

When Xiling Zai realized that Di Jiu was ignoring him, he said flatly, “My name is Xiling Zai. I’m from the Buzhou Immortal Sect.”

As he said that, he opened his hand and a silver spear appeared in it.

Di Jiu had heard of the Buzhou Immortal Sect before. Its Sect Master, Xiling Yuanyi, was one of the five strongest Immortal Emperors in the Demonic Clothing Immortal Continent. According to Xie Huang, Xiling Yuanyi even possessed a White Cloud Bound Flag. Given how cocky this man was and the fact that most people were afraid of him, he was very likely the son of Xiling Yuanyi.

Di Jiu suddenly became excited. He wondered if Xiling Yuanyi had given the flag to Xiling Zai.

“I’m guessing that you are a Tempered Body expert since you managed to stay in the cave for almost a day. If I’m right, you are in disguise. After all, your face doesn’t seem familiar to me. Many years ago, back in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, a weakling managed to escape by consuming a Meridian-Splitting Pill. That weakling was a Tempered Body cultivator as well, and he also knew how to disguise himself…” Xiling Zai got increasingly excited as he spoke. Even his eyes were beaming.

To be honest, Xiling Zai didn’t think that this man was Di Jiu when he started talking. However, after he mentioned his disguise and Tempered Body, he couldn’t help thinking of Di Jiu. In the end, he was 100 percent sure that this man was Di Jiu. Therefore, he couldn’t allow him to take the Meridian-Splitting Pill again.

Xiling Zai stopped talking and attacked Di Jiu when he figured out his identity. He actually regretted that he had exposed Di Jiu’s identity.

“I got it. This man is Di Jiu.” Someone amidst the crowd also figured out his identity based on Xiling Zai’s words.

Di Jiu wiped away his disguise and took out the Heavenly Aqua Saber before unleashing his Wind-Rustling Move.

After attaining the peak of the eighth-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm, Di Jiu’s understanding of the Dao and all sorts of laws had far surpassed his understanding when he had created the Wind-Rustling Move.

When he struck with this saber move, the entire area was filled with a deadly aura.

Xiling Zai was considered an expert amongst the people at his cultivation level. He could even take out someone at the peak of the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm. However, he felt nothing but a freezing chill when he faced Di Jiu’s saber move.

He actually felt like there was no future for him when he was surrounded by the deadly aura that was as cold as the freezing winter after seeing that saber move.

The cold wind blew, and the water ran cold!

Pfft! As Xiling Zai heard the sound of his skull fracturing, he could even see his own blood. His spear had long stopped moving.

“You can’t kill me…” Xiling Zai only managed to utter these few words before the Heavenly Aqua Saber tore through his body.

Di Jiu felt an indescribable sensation as the Heavenly Aqua Saber started humming as if it finally vented its frustration. Enlightenment suddenly dawned upon him.

Lately, he had been hiding the Heavenly Aqua Saber in his ring and traveling around in disguise. He felt like he had been holding himself back. Now that he had removed his disguise and struck with his saber publicly, his state of mind improved and he no longer felt frustrated.

Crack! Almost as soon as Di Jiu split Xiling Zai open, his cultivation broke through the eighth-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm and he attained the ninth stage.

“Who dared to kill my son!” He heard a sharp, pitiful voice before a faint shadow appeared between Xiling Zai’s eyebrows.

The shadow looked like a scholar but exuded an arrogant aura, as if it was above heaven and earth. It tried to slap Di Jiu as soon as it appeared.

Di Jiu knew that this was Xiling Yuanyi the moment he saw the shadow. He also knew that Xiling Yuanyi had been chasing after him when he had escaped from the Gigantic Tripod Immortal City in the past.

“Old bastard, this is payback for chasing after me back then. Take this!” Without any hesitation, Di Jiu struck towards Xiling Yuanyi’s Spiritual Image with a saber flash.

‘You thought that I wouldn’t dare kill Xiling Zai? He he… You must be dreaming. I would even dare to kill you, let alone Xiling Zai…’ Di Jiu thought.

If Di Jiu unleashed the Order Severance Saber Move, he could destroy Xiling Yuanyi’s Spiritual Image with a single move. However, he simply struck with an ordinary move, and his saber intent was filled with thunder streaks.

Crack! Xiling Yuanyi’s Spiritual Shadow was annihilated by Di Jiu’s saber move right after uttering a few words. Even the handprint that it unleashed was a joke compared to Di Jiu’s saber move.

At an Immortal Fruit Banquet billions of miles away from the Lunar Immortal Sea, Xiling Yuanyi suddenly stood up, exuding an intense killing intent as he shouted angrily, “How dare you kill my son and destroy my Spiritual Image? You must have a death wish…”

Then, he rushed into the void.

The remaining Immortal Emperors at the banquet stared at each other. Only a long while later did someone realize that Xiling Yuanyi’s son had probably been murdered.

‘Who dared to kill Xiling Yuanyi’s son? That fellow must be fearless!’

On the island, over a hundred cultivators were left dumbfounded.

One saber move. It had taken Di Jiu merely one saber move to kill Xiling Zai.

Xiling Zai was considered an expert at the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm. However, although he wasn’t an ordinary expert, he wasn’t even able to withstand a single strike from Di Jiu.

Most importantly, Di Jiu had actually dared to kill him.

Several cultivators who were standing close to Di Jiu subconsciously took a few steps back. Why would they rob an expert like Di Jiu? They valued their lives enough not to do that.

Di Jiu retrieved Xiling Zai’s ring and threw a ball of flame towards Xiling Zai’s corpse, reducing it to nothing.

Then, he began walking towards the Lunar Immortal Sea unhurriedly. No one dared to make a sound or stop him from leaving.

Only after his wooden ship sailed into the Lunar Immortal Sea did someone gasp and say, “No wonder he dared to fight a bunch of experts for the Time Crystal back then. He even had the guts to kill Xiling Zai.”

“Killing Xiling Zai is nothing worth mentioning. Didn’t you see him slashing Immortal Emperor Yuanyi’s Spiritual Image?” someone in the crowd commented disdainfully.

Everyone knew that they shouldn’t stay there any longer.

A bunch of people rushed towards the sea and sailed away on their wooden ships. Immortal Emperor Yuanyi would definitely be here in no time, so if they remained on this island, he would probably kill them.

Di Jiu didn’t take the silver spear that had been left on the ground after he killed Xiling Zai, and neither did any of the people who left the island.

Di Jiu immediately started looking for the Spiritual Force imprint on his body when he entered the Lunar Immortal Sea. He was certain that Xiling Yuanyi had left an imprint on him because he had felt it as soon as he had killed Xiling Zai.

It took him merely a single Qi Circulation to find and extract the Spiritual Force imprint. Even if Xiling Yuanyi’s cultivation was ten times stronger, he wouldn’t be able to leave an imprint on Di Jiu’s body without him finding out, let alone now that he was only an Immortal Emperor.

Di Jiu could quickly discover any nomological aura on his body that didn’t belong to him. His cultivation technique was now the Nomological Qi Circulation. He believed that he was miles ahead of Xiling Yuanyi in terms of understanding the Heaven Earth Law.

The only area that Xiling Yuanyi was better at than him was his cultivation level. Even his Spiritual Force was probably stronger than Xiling Yuanyi’s.
