Ninth In the World

“Pfft!” A mist of blood exploded. This level-nine immortal demon beast void monitor lizard was hacked into two by Di Jiu’s saber.

As Di Jiu held the saber in his hand, a kind of unrestrained pride welled up in his heart. His saber move did not make use of any Primeval Thunder Rock Thunder Origin Law. Instead, it completely relied on his own realization.

With his second-stage Immortal Supremacy strength, he hacked one level-nine peak immortal demon beast to death with one saber move. Although it was already seriously injured by the Primeval Thunder Rock, this still meant that he was standing on this universe’s peak.

Di Jiu had killed countless void demon beasts with the help of the Strangulation Arrays and the Primeval Thunder Rock previously. However, there was nothing more terrifying than the 10,000-feet Thunder Saber Move killing so many of them.

He killed one peak void monitor lizard with his saber and, after it was hacked apart, it exploded and the Immortal Essence filled the whole place with blood mist. It was so sudden that it made everyone tremble from the bottom of their hearts.

In addition, the void immortal demon beasts were turned into blood scraps by the range of the 10,000-feet Thunder Saber Move.

The void monitor lizard that was killed by Di Jiu clearly did not have a low status among this group of beasts. After it was killed, the entire void beast group froze for a few breaths and the countless demon beasts turned their heads back in an instant before rushing into the void.

They had come and gone back fast.

Di Jiu stood in the void with the Primeval Thunder Rock but did not chase after them. He had closed his eyes to sense that saber move.

It was called Primeval Thunder Saber. His Primeval Thunder Saber contained a nomological aura suppressed by Heaven and Earth. After it landed along with its strike, it also sealed the opponent with the Heaven Earth Law like the Tribulation Thunder.

The cultivators standing in the Gigantic Tripod Immortal City watched Di Jiu in shock. As he was standing alone in the void, their eyes were filled with awe and respect. He was the one who had made the most terrifying void Beast Tide retreat.

If they had not seen it with their eyes, perhaps nobody would have believed this was true.

Meng Qianqian still had not calmed down. She had the highest cultivation level around and she had seen the entire process of Di Jiu’s saber move clearly. It had obviously not been aimed at her. It was actually far away from her, yet she still kind of felt like she had just faced death.

In other words, she would rather face the Thunder Tribulation and not a saber move made by Di Jiu. It looked simple but it was the most powerful divine power she had seen. It was simply too terrifying.

She knew very well that while Di Jiu had been attacking the demon beasts, he’d had a new realization. However, this was not important. She was aware that Di Jiu would become the true top expert of the Four Major Immortal Continents.

Although Ye Xi was currently known as the top expert of the Major Immortal Continent, Meng Qianqian knew that, in fact, there were many people who were not any weaker than Ye Xi. It was just that they were unwilling to be as high-profile as he was.

After today, she knew very well that Di Jiu was a true expert. He had killed that peak void monitor lizard without the help of any large arrays.

She had still wanted to go to the Peace Hotel to kill Di Jiu with the others previously, but she had simply been courting death. Now that she thought about it, she was really lucky. It was not easy to be able to come out of the Peace Hotel alive. At the moment, any slight resent she felt for Di Jiu deep in her heart disappeared without a trace. She only felt respect for a true expert.

Mi Ji was no better than Meng Qianqian. However, he reacted quickly and hurriedly said, “The Void Beast Tide was killed by Alchemy Emperor Di this time. Everyone, go to the void to collect the immortal demon beasts’ materials. Remember not to disturb Alchemy Emperor Di’s realization, or I will not let you off lightly.”

With an expert like Di Jiu in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, who would dare say anything? He just had to follow Di Jiu.

As a void immortal city’s City Lord, Mi Ji still had the ability to make discerning decisions.

After Mi Ji had finished speaking, Di Jiu’s voice was heard. “No need. I have made the immortal demon beasts retreat this time, and I don’t think they will come back anytime soon. The cultivators who gathered the immortal demon beasts can each take 10%. Another 10% will go to the cultivators who deal with the materials. Leave 20% behind for the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, and the remaining will go to me after City Lord Mi is done sorting everything out.”

Di Jiu simply could not leave out so many top-notch void demon beasts’ materials. Many of the people behind needed them, even if he did not.

“Yes. Alchemy Emperor Di, don’t worry. I will get it done properly,” Mi Ji said excitedly.

Many cultivators who had originally been very excited in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City suddenly shouted, “Long live, Alchemy Emperor Di!”

Who would not be happy when they had made a narrow escape and Di Jiu given them easy money?

“Alchemy Emperor Di, we would all have died in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City if it hadn’t been for you.” Meng Qianqian hurriedly went over to show her respect.

Di Jiu despised Meng Qianqian deep in his heart. Although it was not false that everyone would have died, he reckoned that she had already prepared to flee.

However, he did not bother saying it out loud. “Guild Master Meng is very polite. I plan to make a trip to the Thunder Court Immortal Continent so City Lord Mi and Guild Master Meng will have to take care of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City.”

In fact, he wanted them to take care of the Peace Hotel more.

Mi Ji and Meng Qianqian promptly assured him that they would definitely not allow anything to befall the Gigantic Tripod Immortal City and the Peace Hotel.

“Big Brother.” Black Fire and Little Tree hurriedly ran over.

“Not bad. There is a huge improvement in Black Fire’s cultivation level. It’s already a level-seven mid-stage immortal demon. Black Fire will come with me this time.” Di Jiu nodded his head in satisfaction. Black Fire was not ordinary and his cultivation level was high, so he could help him even more.

“Big Brother…” Little Tree looked somewhat aggrieved. Theoretically, he was the one who had started following Big Brother first. How come he was not the one to go out with him?

Di Jiu said softly, “Your cultivation level is too low. When it gets higher, I can take you outside. You should stay in the Peace Hotel and enter reclusive cultivation now.”

Even though Little Tree was not up to Black Fire’s aptitude, his cultivation was also far from his hard work.

“Yes, Big Brother.” Little Tree lowered his head. He had decided that, no matter what happened this time, he would frantically upgrade his cultivation level. Otherwise, Black Fire would be showing off.

…

There were protective Defense Arrays outside of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City’s Teleportation Arrays. Such a long-range Teleportation Array was simply not for anyone.

Without sufficient immortal crystals and an adequate status, one naturally did not have the right to use such a Teleportation Array. If anyone wanted to visit the few Major Star Continents, they could only rely on their flying methods against time.

“Alchemy Emperor Di, I guess that there are some problems with the Thunder Court Immortal Continent’s Teleportation Array. There is no way to teleport there directly. You might get into trouble by teleporting like this.” Mi Ji, who was somewhat worried, was following Di Jiu.

Di Jiu gestured with his hands. “It doesn’t matter. Even if something went wrong with the Teleportation Array, things would be fine.”

There were some problems with the Thunder Court Immortal Continent’s Teleportation Arrays. There could only be two possibilities when teleporting over there. One, it would be the same as when he had teleported to the Square Immortal Continent last time and experienced random teleportation, landing in the Square Immortal Continent in the end. Two, the void would appear to be cut off and once such a situation came up, Di Jiu would also have a way to save himself because he still had one Sacred Yin Pearl.

Di Jiu stood on the Teleportation Array and, after Mi Ji activated it, he was immediately wrapped by a ball of white flare. Then, he disappeared.

…

Bam! Di Jiu was thrown to the ground, cracking his entire leg bone.

However, he was relieved. This was indeed the same as the teleportation to the Square Immortal Continent. It had been a random teleportation.

Di Jiu did not need to take out his elixir pills and, after a few Qi Circulations, his leg bone recovered completely.

Amid Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force, there was no one but a faint smell of blood. It was clear that many people and demon beasts had been killed here not too long ago.

Some immortal cities were only left with broken walls. Besides the dried bloodstains, there were no traces of cultivators but some skeletons and broken Dharma treasures.

When he had arrived in the Square Immortal Continent in the past, the place had entered a sunset state because the light from providence shining on it had been stripped away and entered a sunset state. Although there was no sunset state here, it was a place filled with desolation. Killing intent was everywhere because of the Beast Tide.

Black Fire shouted once he came out, “Big Brother, many demon beasts were battling here not too long ago!”

Di Jiu was about to answer when a shadow flashed past the edge of his Spiritual Force at a great speed. Before he could say anything, he grasped firmly Black Fire’s shoulder to point it out and followed it.

Even though his Spiritual Force surpassed level-nine Immortal Force, Old Zhong might not catch up to him. This was why Di Jiu had not analyzed the Five-Element escape technique yet.

Within only an hour, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force caught the person who was urgently fleeing. He was sure that it was Zhong Ao.

While Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force sensed Zhong Ao, Zhong Ao also sensed Di Jiu and rushed towards him in a flash.

In the blink of an eye, Zhong Ao landed in front of Di Jiu.

“Old Zhong, how come you’re in this plight?” Di Jiu’s gaze landed on Zhong Ao as he asked him this question in disbelief.

His body was full of blood, and his aura was dispirited. It was clear that he was seriously injured, to the point that he was unable to fight.
