Ninth In the World

Thanks to the level-four Immortal Flame, the array flag Di Jiu had refined jumped one level instantly. Initially, Di Jiu had been stuck at the edge of being a level-four Immortal Array master. However, with a higher-level array flag, the Dharma Array that he had created became a level-four Immortal Array. Di Jiu was now worthy of being called a level-four Immortal Array master.

The construction of the Starry Sky Immortal City sped up as Qu Tong, Bei Chutai and Yan Xiaosha joined in.

After three months, Di Jiu had created a level-four Defense Array for the Starry Sky Immortal City. Half a year later, he added a level-four Confinement Killing Array outside the Defense Array. At the same time, he added a level-four Confinement Killing Array inside the level-four Defense Array.

Di Jiu’s ability to create Array Daos improved after a year and he became a level-five Immortal Array master. Therefore, he upgraded the level-three Immortal Arrays he had created previously to level-five arrays. Then, he created a gigantic Spirit Gathering Array outside the Starry Sky Immortal City.

There was no Immortal sect in the Immortal World at the moment, so nobody would be bothered by the size of the Spirit Gathering Array.

Di Jiu created all the Dharma Arrays by himself, without asking for help. This was because Di Jiu did not feel assured by the others’ ability, and he was the only level-five immortal array master in the entire city. Therefore, asking others for help would be more of a hindrance.

The construction of the Starry Sky Immortal City had been completed long ago, so everyone was waiting for Di Jiu to put everything together by using his large array. The Immortal City was beautiful, yet if Di Jiu’s Fortune Gathering Array could not gather the fortune the city needed, the city would be useless, no matter how beautiful it was.

Everyone’s focus was on Di Jiu’s Fortune Gathering Immortal Array. However, nobody knew how many arrays Di Jiu had created. Only Qu Tong knew that the last array Di Jiu had created was a Major Five-Element Array instead of a Fortune Gathering Immortal Array.

Although Di Jiu had not said so out loud, Qu Tong had sort of guessed it. That immortal spring could be where the remaining light of providence lay. Di Jiu had created the Major Five-Element Array to ensure and then condense the light from providence in the Immortal World.

Di Jiu created all sorts of Five-Element Array flags and positioned the Floating Flame Flag at the center of the City Lord Manor to lock the light from providence.

It took him more than half a year to complete the Major Five-Element Array, while he spent only a year on all the other Dharma Arrays.

Di Jiu was extremely excited when he positioned all the array flags except the last Seven-Star Aqua Flag.

As soon as he placed the Seven-Star Aqua Flag at the bottom of the Sky Bamboo River, the Major Five-Element Array would be activated.

All the Defense Arrays, Spirit Gathering Arrays, Strangulation Arrays, and Confinement Killing Arrays Di Jiu had created were dependent on the Major Five-Element Array. As long as the Major Five-Element Array was activated, the remaining Defense Arrays would all be activated.

There were both pros and cons to such interdependent arrays. The biggest advantage was that, as long as the Major Five-Element Array was around, the remaining arrays would work and form a large interconnected array. This would help create a more powerful array, so even if part of the array was damaged, it would be restored very quickly.

The biggest disadvantage was that, once the Major Five-Element Array was destroyed, the remaining Defense Arrays would be practically useless.

Di Jiu had created this array because the standard of his Array Dao was not good enough. Thus, such an arrangement would increase the power of the array. His second reason for doing so was because the Major Five-Element Array was situated at the center of the city, where he could control it directly. If the Major Five-Element Array was destroyed, then the other arrays would be insignificant.

D Jiu felt a trace of anticipation as he planted the Seven-Star Aqua Flag beside the clear spring.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! A series of loud booms were heard from the Starry Sky Immortal City as Di Jiu positioned the array flag.

The originally crystal-clear Immortal City became blurry suddenly and the visible distance decreased. The remaining places were all blocked by the Defense Arrays, Assistance Arrays, Separation Arrays, and Spiritual Forces.

Just as everyone looked around excitedly, Yan Xiaosha, who had the highest cultivation experience, looked around in disbelief and murmured, “Daoist Di is actually an Immortal Array master. I’m afraid that the level of this Immortal Array is higher than level four…”

Although he did not have a deep understanding of arrays, he had seen the Defense Arrays of many Immortal Cities. He was certain that, even before the Sunset Immortal World had existed, few array masters had actually been able to create such an array. He did not believe that a cultivator from the Cultivation World had such strong array formation skills.

As the loud booms continued, the crowd saw an aura streaming down the Sky Bamboo River like clear water. Rich Spirit Qi gathered madly as the blurry nomological aura became crystal clear.

“Can we start cultivating?” said a dumbfounded person.

Most of the people around could not even say anything. They just knelt on the ground and trembled.

Everyone who felt the Spirit Qi was sure that it was suitable for cultivation and different from what they had seen previously in the Sunset Immortal World. They could now cultivate in any way they wanted. On the contrary, they had only been able to absorb some messed-up Spirit Qi in the other castles and barely maintain their cultivation experience.

“I can feel the Tribulation Thunder, I can feel the real Tribulation Thunder!” a Perfected Domain Realm cultivator shouted excitedly, sounding a little crazy. He had met many people who had attained the Perfected Immortal Realm by transforming the Immortal Essence, but now he could feel the Tribulation Thunder directly. This had to be a dream.

Once he transcended the tribulation, he would be significantly more powerful than anyone who merely transformed Immortal Essence.

“I can feel it too!”

“Me too…”

At least half of the over 100 cultivators felt the Perfected Immortal Thunder Tribulation.

They had attained the Perfected Domain Realm long ago, so they had just lacked the environment and opportunity to go through the tribulation.

The cultivators knelt down one after another. They were all feeling really glad that they had followed Di Jiu to the new Immortal City.

None of the cultivators in the Immortal World were stupid. They all knew that the new Immortal City was not just an Immortal City with a Fortune Gathering Immortal Array, but a real Immortal City in the Immortal World. They did not care how Di Jiu had achieved all that because their focus was on living in that city.

Meanwhile, Di Jiu felt that rich Immortal Spirit aura. Although he had expected everything, he still could not contain his excitement when everything happened before his eyes.

These changes meant one thing: his Major Five-Element Array had ensured and condensed all the light from providence in the Immortal World.

Soon, the light from providence in the Starry Sky Immortal City would spread out gradually and the Immortal World would be restored to its original state.

What astonished him was that after the Floating Flame Flag and the Seven-Star Aqua Flag were positioned to ensure the light from providence, the Major Five-Element Array leveled up, although he was just a level-five Immortal Array master.

When he calmed down and raised his hands, four gigantic Immortal Essence words appeared: Starry Sky Immortal City.

The four big words were connected to the Major Five-Element Array. As long as the Major Five-Element Array could ensure and concentrate the light from providence, the four words would not disappear.

“The Sky Bamboos have been revived!” someone exclaimed. According to Di Jiu’s plan, the Sky Bamboo River could not be moved during the construction of the city, but the Sky Bamboos on the two sides of the river would be moved to the two sides of the streets.

Although the masses had no idea why Di Jiu had wanted to move the withered Sky Bamboos to the two sides of the streets, they had still followed his instructions.

Now, they understood why Di Jiu had wanted to do that. It was because he had known long ago that the Sky Bamboos would be revived.

Yan Xiaosha knelt down to the ground as he looked at the Sky Bamboos on the two sides of the streets, which were turning lush green gradually. Something was stuck at his throat, so he could not speak.

Yan Xiaosha had never imagined that he would feel the beauty of the Immortal World ever since the Sunset Immortal World had appeared. He had thought that he would never see any greenery or feel a bit of life-force. All he could do was watch the Immortal World falter and die like an old man.

He had never expected to see life-force again or watch the withered Immortal World grow once again.

This was a real rebirth, not the fake rebirth in the Newborn Immortal Protectorate.

The Starry Sky Immortal City was the newborn Immortal World. It was like a seed that had just germinated. This seed also germinated and matured in his heart. The Starry Sky Immortal City was a place he wanted to protect with his life.

“Thank you, City Lord.” Yan Xiaosha looked in the direction of Di Jiu and murmured once again. He could not contain the passion and emotions in his heart.

Initially, he had come to this city with Bei Chutai because he had admired what Di Jiu had said. However, he felt very grateful for his decision to join Bei Chutai. He had not been disappointed. How was this a Fortune Gathering Immortal Array? It had literally ensured the light from providence and restored the Immortal World to its original state.

“It is raining…” Bei Chutai, who was equally excited, raised his head and watched the fine drizzle. He knelt down to the ground like the other cultivators to express his gratitude for the rebirth and germination of the Immortal World.

The over 100 cultivators raised their heads like Bei Chutai and allowed the drizzle to fall on their faces.

How long had it been since they had last seen rain? Actually, how long had it been since they had last seen water?

The rain became heavier and formed a stream that flowed into the Sky Bamboo River.

The dry Sky Bamboo River was moisturized and the water level increased.

Nobody was willing to seek shelter in the cave abode, no matter how heavy the rain was, because they wanted to feel the aura of the life-force.

Di Jiu’s voice was heard just in time. “My fellow daoists, we have built the Starry Sky Immortal City together. We will live and cultivate here in the future. All the cultivators who felt the Perfected Immortal Thunder Tribulation please head outside the city for the tribulation transcendence. We will gather in the City Lord Manor when everyone has completed the tribulation transcendence.”
