Ninth In the World

Jie Huang was so excited that he started to tremble because he felt the amazingly clear Heaven Earth Law once again when he cultivated.

At that moment, Jie Huang finally understood that the reason he could feel that clear law of cultivation and enjoy a boosted cultivation experience was not due to the aura of the wood origin, but because he was cultivating with Di Jiu.

Jie Huang felt extremely grateful and thought that he was really smart for calling Di Jiu his Big Brother the moment he had first seen him. Di Jiu had not only helped him remove his Desire Poison but also allowed his cultivation experience to be boosted like mad.

Frankly speaking, Jie Huang had not taken this matter too seriously when he had first called Di Jiu his Big Brother at the Starry Sky Tea House in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal City. This was because of his personality. After Di Jiu had removed his Desire Poison and taught him a few types of top-notch cultivation techniques, he had truly recognized Di Jiu as his Big Brother.

At the moment, Jie Huang had become Di Jiu’s die-hard supporter. He took his hat off before Di Jiu.

However, he did not have the time to say all these things now, as he had to level up his potential like crazy.

Jie Huang was not the only one cultivating because of Di Jiu. Little Tree and Black Fire were cultivating too.

The Immortal Spirit Qi in the hall, which was extremely rich, would form a cloud once they started cultivating.

The only person who did not cultivate was Mo Yuxuan. However, Di Jiu gave her the right to enter the Quintessential World. The Quintessential World and the hall were connected.

Endless Immortal Spirit Qi flowed into the Quintessential World, so Mo Yuxuan led quite a peaceful life. All she did was plant and drink tea.

…

In the Gigantic Tripod Liberal City…

Due to the disappearance of manager Di Jiu from the Starry Sky Tea House, people couldn’t even get one Starry Sky tea leaf for 10,000 freedom points.

Di Jiu had become famous after the Starry Sky Tea had gained popularity. Countless cultivators from different places came to the Gigantic Tripod Liberal City to search for Di Jiu.

Some people came to look for the tea, while others came for the elixirs.

However, all these cultivators ended up like Zhou Bujian. They did not manage to find Di Jiu.

Most cultivators who came to the Gigantic Tripod Liberal City did not leave, as there was going to be an extremely huge auction. This auction was so rare that it hardly happened once in every century. Even if the cultivators could not afford the treasures, it would be a good eye-opening experience for them.

Although the Star Elixir Dispensary remained in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal City, their business was even worse than it had been a few years ago. People had discovered that the Star Elixir Dispensary had plotted against Di Jiu.

Now that Di Jiu was missing, many people were speculating that this matter was not over. As a cultivator who had dared to nail the manager of the Great Fortune Inn to a pillar, Di Jiu would definitely not slip away quietly after being plotted against by the Star Elixir Dispensary.

Due to the Starry Sky Tea leaves Di Jiu had given her, Huo Qianqian had benefited a lot over the past few years. She was at the eighth-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm now. Without Di Jiu’s help, it would have taken her at least a hundred years to attain the late-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm. However, not only had she become a late-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal, but she had even reached the eighth stage. The Starry Sky Tea was truly remarkable.

Huo Qianqian, who knew that many people had their eyes on Di Jiu, was worried about him. However, she knew that he wasn’t a simple person either.

If Di Jiu had been simple-minded, he would have been dead by now.

“Deacon Huo, these are some things that could be auctioned off.” An assistant bowed after walking towards the cave abode where Huo Qianqian cultivated.

The restriction at Huo Qianqian’s door rolled up and the jade scroll in the assistant’s hands was rolled into the cave abode. Huo Qianqian then said, “You may leave first.”

After the assistant left, Huo Qianqian used her Spiritual Force to scan the jade scroll before throwing it aside. She would receive many jade scrolls about the auctions in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal City every year. She had requested to get a copy of every auction jade scroll.

However, Huo Qianqian picked up the jade scroll again, her Spiritual Force landing on it once more.

She stood up immediately when she saw that the Agama True Glazed Water was one of the items being auctioned.

That was the only thing Di Jiu had asked her help with, so she had asked people to find it in the other immortal continents. Unfortunately, it was so rare that she hadn’t been able to find it so far.

She had never expected that the Agama True Glazed Water would be auctioned. She had to tell Di Jiu about it immediately.

Huo Qianqian did not dare to send a message to Di Jiu. Even though she had Di Jiu’s message pearl, she had never used it.

After checking the elixirs in the elixir dispensary, Huo Qianqian walked out of the Star Elixir Dispensary indifferently and left the Gigantic Tripod Liberal City immediately.

Huo Qianqian sent three consecutive messages about the Agama True Glazed Water to Di Jiu as soon as she stepped out of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal City.

She did not know where Di Jiu had gone, so this was the only thing she could do for him.

…

Crack! One more faintly-visible galaxy appeared in Di Jiu’s Starry Sky meridian before he broke through level eight of the Great Unity Immortal.

Di Jiu’s message pearl started shining just as he was about to become a level-nine Great Unity Immortal.

“The Gigantic Tripod Liberal City will be organizing a combined auction in six months. The Agama True Glazed Water will be available.”

The same message had been sent thrice.

Di Jiu stood up in ecstasy and dashed into the Quintessential World immediately. He wanted to tell Mo Yuxuan the good news. He also wanted to go to the Demonic Clothing Immortal Continent after he attained the Grand Zenith Immortal Realm, even if Huo Qianqian had not sent him the message. The Agama True Glazed Water had appeared in the Gigantic Tripod Immortal City before he had gone to the Demonic Clothing Immortal Continent.

“Junior Sister Mo…” Di Jiu merely called out to Mo Yuxuan before he realized that she had collapsed next to a tea tree.

Mo Yuxuan’s neck had turned purple, and her forehead was turning black. Di Jiu, who understood what was going on immediately, grabbed a Rainbow Immortal Peach and made Mo Yuxuan eat it immediately.

After eating the Rainbow Immortal Peach, Mo Yuxuan looked much better. She appeared alive once again.

Mo Yuxuan was apologetic when she saw Di Jiu standing next to her. “I thought that I could withstand it for a while longer. I didn’t expect that I would faint.”

Although there was only one Rainbow Immortal Peach left on the tree, Di Jiu said excitedly, “Junior Sister Mo, I was just informed that the Agama True Glazed Water has appeared in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal City.”

Mo Yuxuan was not overjoyed. Instead, she stared at Di Jiu blankly. After a while, she said in a worried tone, “Senior Brother Di…”

Di Jiu knew what Mo Yuxuan was about to say, so he waved his hand to stop her. Then, he said calmly, “Junior Sister Mo, I know what you mean. Many experts and even immortal emperors will be fighting over the Agama True Glazed Water. However, I must go and buy it. It is not just for you, but also for my Dao heart.”

Mo Yuxuan sighed and lowered her head. There was something inexplicable deep in her heart. As the only disciple protecting her immortal sect, she had seen too many cases of abandonment, thievery, and selfishness.

She had a mind of her own. Even though she was the only disciple of the Heavenly Sect and she had to protect her sect, she did not agree with the other sects and cultivators in the world. She detested their selfishness and fights. As a result, she did not want to find her own disciples to protect the Virtuous Nirvana Sect.

She believed that she had not misjudged the situation. In fact, ever since she had arrived in the Immortal World, fights and killings had remained rampant. As the disciple of the Heavenly Sect, she had almost been killed many times.

She had never imagined that she would meet a cultivator like Di Jiu in her life. She had saved Di Jiu from the Heaven Fire Spirit, and he had taken her wherever he went. Thus, she was reliant on him after losing her consciousness.

How many places had Di Jiu been to in order to save her? He had been giving her Rainbow Immortal Peaches generously, something she would not have believed if someone had mentioned it in the cultivation world in the past. She had seen too much of the evil of the cultivation world. Usually, if someone treated her that way, it would be because of her background and Nirmala Spirit Body. However, she was sure that Di Jiu was not doing that just because she had saved him once unintentionally.

Di Jiu was the only cultivator who was different from other cultivators.

If anything were to happen to him while he bought the Agama True Glazed Water, she would not forgive herself even if she died. She knew deep in her heart that she would not be able to convince Di Jiu once he made up his mind.

“Senior Brother, let me go with you.” Mo Yuxuan looked into Di Jiu’s eyes, her voice filled with anticipation.

Di Jiu’s trip to the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City was bound to be a treacherous experience. If he were to die, she would die with him so that her soul would rest in peace too.

Di Jiu shook his head and said, “No, all of you shall stay here and cultivate this time. I’ll go alone. Little Tree…”

“Big Brother, I’m here.” Little Tree, who ran towards Di Jiu clumsily, had become a level-three immortal demon after transcending the tribulation. Its cultivation had slowed down drastically after Di Jiu had stopped cultivating. Thus, it had stopped cultivating as well.

Jie Huang and Black Fire walked over for the same reason as Little Tree. Their cultivation speed had slowed down after Di Jiu had stopped cultivating.

“After I leave, Jie Huang and Black Fire will try to enter reclusive cultivation and Little Tree will take care of Sister Mo.” Although the Rainbow Immortal Peach could last for a few years, Di Jiu was still afraid that she might faint suddenly.
