Ninth In The World Chapter 393 - Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array

Influenced by Di Jiu, Xie Huang used the Spiritual Force Training Art to temper his Spiritual Force when he was unable to cultivate as he was controlling the flying shuttle. Xie Huang did not wish to be left too far behind, for he saw the Immortal Spirit Qi whirlpool formed when Di Jiu was cultivating.

Mo Yuxuan would only occasionally appear on the deck to observe the scenery of the void outside. On the other hand, Black Fire stayed on the deck to cultivate.

Only a year had pa.s.sed, when Black Fire asked Xie Huang to stop the boat because he needed to undergo Tribulation Transcendence.

With a Great Unity Immortal like Xie Huang around, Di Jiu was not worried about the safety of the flying shuttle. He had already entered a state of deep seclusion.

Xie Huang felt anxious when he saw that Black Fire easily completed the Tribulation Transcendence and attained the rank of a level-four immortal demon beast. He had to get back to cultivating immediately. Otherwise, Black Fire would surpa.s.s him in the future.

Black Fire looked down on Xie Huang’s and Little Tree’s potential, although not on Big Brother Di Jiu’s.

As expected, the first thing Black Fire did after he completed the Thunder Tribulation was say, “Junior Brother Xie, you need to work hard. I’m about to attain level five. Your cultivation speed is still too slow.”

“Who gave you the right to address me as ‘Junior Brother’?” Xie Huang’s expression was ugly.

Black Fire was not afraid of Xie Huang. “Once my cultivation attains level five, Big Brother will also make you address me as Senior Brother Black Fire.”

“I have been controlling the flying shuttle. Do you think that you could have surpa.s.sed my strength so fast otherwise?” replied Xie Huang in disdain. In the past, he had been a Grand Zenith Immortal.

“If that’s the case, hand the control of the flying shuttle to me then.” Black Fire chuckled. If Little Tree had been here, it would have known that this had been Black Fire’s true aim.

“Alright.” Xie Huang, who had been provoked, was thinking of cultivating. Now that Black Fire wanted to control the flying shuttle, he pa.s.sed the control to Black Fire without hesitation.

Di Jiu did not know that the person controlling the flying shuttle had changed. After cultivating for a year, he was very close to attaining the third-stage Immortal Lord Realm.

At the moment, Di Jiu was frantically absorbing Immortal Spirit Qi. The immortal crystals surrounding him shattered continuously and the emitted Immortal Spirit Qi was all absorbed by Di Jiu.

Time was the most worthless thing in the void. Six more months pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.

Boom! Di Jiu finally broke through the cultivation barrier of the second-stage Immortal Lord Realm and attained the third-stage Immortal Lord Realm.

He sensed a calling filled with anxiety the moment he attained the third-stage Immortal Lord Realm. This calling seemed to have existed for a long time. However, his cultivation level had been too low in the past, which was why he had not sensed it. Now that he had just attained the third-stage Immortal Lord Realm, he could sense it.

“Hold on!” Di Jiu rushed onto the deck of the flying shuttle.

“Big Brother, you are out!” shouted Black Fire, who was controlling the flying shuttle, hastily when he saw Di Jiu coming over.

Di Jiu had already spotted Xie Huang, who had entered reclusive cultivation. Xie Huang had been originally at the third-stage Grand Zenith Immortal Realm, but now he was at the fourth-stage Great Unity Immortal Realm. This improvement could be considered extremely swift. However, Di Jiu was not surprised that Black Fire had become a level-four demon beast.

“Change direction,” commanded Di Jiu as he pointed at a direction nearly 90 degrees away from their current direction.

Black Fire changed direction without hesitation as he asked casually, “Big Brother, we would have reached our destination in a year at the most if we had continued in the original direction.”

Di Jiu nodded his head. “I’m aware of that. However, I have more reasons to visit that place.”

He had sensed the Golden Dao Law, which had escaped from his Spiritual Sea, calling him the instant he had broken through the second-stage Immortal Lord barrier.

Di Jiu would not have headed in this direction for any other reason. Despite what he had always said about being unconcerned about the Golden Dao Law leaving, he still yearned for it.

After all, all the success he had gained now was thanks to the Golden Dao Law, which had not even helped him wholeheartedly. His Array Dao had remained stagnant with little to no improvement after the Golden Dao Law had left.

Di Jiu felt that, in terms of his Alchemy Dao, his improvement was significant. However, this progress would slow down once he reached the limit of being an Alchemy King. As for the exorcism of the spirit residing within Xie Huang, he would not have to use his Dao fire to burn Xie Huang if the Golden Dao Law was around.

This was why he had decided to head over without any hesitation as soon as he had received the Golden Dao Law’s calling. After all, this would affect his future Dao progression.

Black Fire did not care where Di Jiu was going, for he was only concerned about following the latter’s orders.

They had encountered no cultivators in the void, where they only saw meteorites and the occasional void beasts.

While Black Fire was controlling the flying shuttle, Di Jiu repeatedly changed the direction of the shuttle. He asked Black Fire to stop the shuttle after flying for nearly three months.

“Big Brother, this is the void’s chaotic s.p.a.ce…” Black Fire looked at the churning void in front of him, which did not allow any Spiritual Force to permeate it, in fear.

The s.p.a.ce several kilometers away was churning continuously like boiling water. Gold-tinted auras streaked across in the form of spatial blade flares. There were also various spatial rifts within.

Even he would not dare enter such a place, for such an act would be equivalent to committing suicide.

“Hold on a minute. There is also a terrifying void flame within…” As a level-four immortal demon beast, Black Fire could see many things clearly.

Di Jiu said lowly, “Your Array Dao standards are insufficient. Other than the spatial blade flares and the void flame you mentioned, there is also the aura of waves belonging to the churning void, as well as a dense aura of rattan and void soil. This is a Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array…”

It was not because of the fact that he was a level-seven Immortal Array King, or because of his condensed Spiritual Force, that he was able to recognize the Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array. It was because he had seen it in the Book of the World, which stated that it belonged to the kind of large arrays that he was not qualified to create.

The Dao-Sealing Array was used to confine Dao laws, ordinary laws, and Heaven Earth Laws. It was not something anyone could create.

Upon reaching this place, Di Jiu could sense even more clearly that this Golden Dao Law was indeed trapped within this Dao-Sealing Array. Someone must have confined it there.

This Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array had been created using the universe’s five-element laws. Logically speaking, there should not be any materials available in this Heaven and Earth that could be used in the creation of this array. However, Di Jiu knew that the Golden Dao Law that had escaped from his Spiritual Sea was trapped within this Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array. The call for help came from within this Dao-Sealing Array.

“Big Brother, this Dao-Sealing Array…” Black Fire looked at Di Jiu in worry. This Dao-Sealing Array was simply too frightening. Any Immortal Emperor who came here would most likely be killed without a chance of survival, much less Di Jiu, who merely possessed the strength of a third-stage Immortal Lord.

While looking at the churning Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array, Di Jiu said after some hesitation, “I need to head in and take a look. Black Fire, take the flying shuttle further away from here. Don’t worry, my death will not affect you. Wake Xie Huang up once I die and ask him to take everyone and flee from this place.”

“Yes, Big Brother.” Black Fire did not attempt to advise Di Jiu, not only because Black Fire knew that advising Dao fire was meaningless, but also because he would not even attempt to advise Di Jiu even if he could do so effectively. He could see that the item confined within this Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array was not ordinary.

The act of cultivating itself was heaven-defying. One would become a mediocre cultivator if he or she gave up on opportunities because they were afraid of dying. Black Fire was not like that. If he was in Di Jiu’s shoes, he would enter the array without a doubt, so long as the item was of use to him. Since he was unafraid, it was not surprising that Big Brother was not afraid either.

Di Jiu focused and started communicating with the Golden Dao Law. The two of them had spent a very long time together. Hence, he hoped that it could help him after he entered the Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array. Otherwise, he would have no chance of survival.

The Golden Dao Law was confined very securely. Thanks to the message the Golden Dao Law sent, Di Jiu learned a few things. One, this Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array had been created to capture it; two, the owner of this array had disappeared to places unknown, so this Dao-Sealing Array was currently not being controlled; three, the Fire Origin Pearl had originally been placed at the fire-element position but had disappeared for unknown reasons. Therefore, the fire-element position of the Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array was currently weak. Otherwise, the Golden Dao Law would not have been able to transmit any message out of the array.

Di Jiu almost shouted out in alarm when he received the fourth message.

The five elements used in the creation of this Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array were all connate origin treasures. The Fire Origin Pearl was missing, and the remaining four points were occupied by the Breathing Earth, the True Connate Metal, the Five-Element Holy Water, and the Creation Wood Branch.

The Five-Element Array foundation of this Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array was frightening, even though there was nothing being confined inside, regardless of whether it was a Dao law or not.

Di Jiu recognized these items, as they had all been recorded in the Book of the World. Each of these items existed only in legends and had been produced when chaos had first formed.

One could only wonder who had placed these treasures here, simply for the sake of capturing the Golden Dao Law. Such an act was unfathomable.

Di Jiu’s eyes shone. After all, these items were sufficient to cover his losses, regardless of whether he could rescue the Golden Dao Law. The problem was how he would enter this Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array without putting his life at risk.

The Golden Dao Law had sent a message that the fire element of the array had weakened due to the disappearance of the Fire Origin Pearl. However, Di Jiu did not believe that he would be able to breach the array given the cultivation experience he had, even if the Golden Dao Law was helping him from within.

Di Jiu wanted to save the Golden Dao Law, but not at the cost of his own life. Indeed, the Golden Dao Law was not nice. It had not treated Di Jiu as a friend in the past. Now that it was in trouble, it had finally remembered him.
