Chapter 714: Lan Ru’s Cry For Help

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“The Void Mountain…” Jiang Dai exclaimed in surprise. His face instantly changed as he kneaded out endless Dharma techniques. The Five-Continent Dao PaG.o.da turned into a five-colored paG.o.da shadow that started blocking his way.

He knew better than anyone how terrifying the Void Mountain was. Not only was it not just a mountain, but it also contained endless Dao rune suppression. Once this kind of Dao rune was sealed, only death would await him. Without the Five-Continent Dao PaG.o.da, Jiang Dai did not dare be sure that he could escape easily from the Void Mountain.

Even though Xu Baishang came from the Void Mountain, in fact, Jiang Dai did not take Xu Baishang seriously because he knew that Xu Baishang and his father did not have the Void Mountain. Therefore, the place they were in was also a fake Void Mountain.

However, Di Jiu had taken out the real Void Mountain. At the thought that Di Jiu also had the Yin-Yang Taijitu, Jiang Dai trembled even more deep down.

Boom, boom, boom! Before the Void Mountain and the Five-Continent Dao PaG.o.da could clash, this s.p.a.ce had been blown apart by the Dao runes, creating chaotic laws. If cultivators with a weaker cultivation level were drawn to this kind of chaotic s.p.a.ce, these explosive Dao runes could turn them into ashes.

Crack, crack, crack! Boom, boom, boom!

The Void Mountain and the Five-Continent Dao PaG.o.da finally rammed together, causing a terrifying Divine Essence to explode. Di Jiu’s Quintessential Essence froze and cracks emerged from his domain.

Jiang Dai’s domain immediately shattered into pieces and he opened his mouth to spray out a trail of blood.

In just a while, Jiang Dai discovered in shock that he was actually not Di JIu’s match. He was sure that Di Jiu had yet to reach Primordial Chaos, but he could not defeat him.

n.o.body would believe this, much less Jiang Dai.

He remembered the arrogance and disdain of Di Xinren. He was sure that if top Sacred Emperor Di Xinren met Di Jiu, he definitely would have no hope of winning.

Di Jiu was too terrifying.

No. How could he be having these thoughts at a time like this?

A deadly aura shrouded Jiang Dai, who only saw a sea of white saber screens. Before his shattered domain once again extended, these saber screens completely enveloped this s.p.a.ce.

This was the most top-notch saber domain! Jiang Dai knew what it was. At that moment, he knew better than anyone that if he had no means of making Di Jiu return his Yin-Yang Taijitu today, he would not just be defeated. He was afraid he would probably die here.

Without hesitation, Jiang Dai swayed his figure. He needed to leave this place instantly.

However, Jiang DaI was stunned. He had lost the s.p.a.ce for his Five-Element escape technique, which left no room for executing it. In other words, his Five-Element escape technique had lost its condensation backbone.

His disappointment grew stronger and stronger. Jiang Dai understood in an instant that his Five-Element escape technique had lost its function, not because of Di Jiu’s saber domain but because this saber move of Di Jiu contained a divine power. This kind of divine power could split apart the law of his escape technique divine power, causing it to lose its function.

Had he shattered the Heaven Earth Law? Was there such a terrifying divine power?

While madly bellowing, Jiang Dai opened his mouth and spurted out a trail of blood arrows before his figure was forcefully distorted. If he did not leave, he would die for sure. He had tried to overestimate Di Jiu, but Di Jiu was even more terrifying than he had thought.

Pfft! Di Jiu’s saber screen tore away one of Jiang Dai’s arms. Before the saber screen’s saber domain law could turn Jiang Dai into sc.r.a.ps, Jiang Dai abruptly vanished.

Di Jiu saw this clearly. He simply did not understand. Did Jiang Dai have a death wish? He had actually escaped into the Five-Continent Dao PaG.o.da.

Without hesitation, Di Jiu took out a handful of array flags and threw them in. At the same time, the nomological array flags started to gather. Before Di Jiu’s Confinement Divine Array had fully formed, the Five-Continent Dao PaG.o.da produced a sharp scream. He unexpectedly ripped apart the void and immediately escaped into it.

Di Jiu froze. The Five-Continent Dao PaG.o.da had such an ability? He did not hesitate for long before he rushed into the spatial rift to chase after him. He had to kill Jiang Dai. Otherwise, he would not feel good.

As soon as Di Jiu vanished, the spatial rift behind him, which had been ripped apart by the Five-Continent Dao PaG.o.da, closed up completely.

At that moment, it would be very hard even if Di Jiu wanted to turn back.

Di Jiu stopped chasing Jiang Dai, not because he did not want to chase after him, but because his Spiritual Force could not detect where Jiang Dai was. This time, Jiang Dai had really disappeared along with his Five-Continent Dao PaG.o.da.

He knew that he had done something foolish. When Jiang Dai had ripped apart the void, he should not have chased after him. Even if he entered the same spatial rift as Jiang Dai in the vast void, he might not necessarily be in the same plane as him.

…

The Cloud Distant Palace definitely had a prestigious presence in the Dao World. Which of the Dao World’s Three Major Divine Hidden Sects was unaware of that? The Cloud Distant Palace was one of the Three Major Divine Hidden Sects.

The Cloud Distant Palace had gotten its name from the highest peak of the Dao World outside—the Cloud Distant Peak. Under the Cloud Distant Peak, clouds and mist lingered all year round and cloud layers were under their feet without any need for arrays.

At the moment, in the most luxurious hall of the Cloud Distant Palace, a handsome middle-aged man in blue was sitting in the highest seat with a somewhat unpleasant expression on his face.

Lan Ru was standing below with her head down, explaining something. After explaining, she pleaded. “Father, please save him. If we are late, I’m afraid he’ll really die.”

“Outrageous!” The middle-aged man hit the armrest of the chair in front of him and sternly answered, “You caused this kind of mess back then and almost lost your life outside. You managed to escape but caused trouble everywhere this time. Let me tell you something. From this day onward, you’re not allowed to leave the Cloud Distant Palace.”

This middle-aged man was Lan Ru’s father, Lan Yunshan, who was also the Palatial Lord of the Cloud Distant Palace. Everyone in the Dao World knew him.

“Father, do you want your daughter to be a despicable person? Di Jiu saved my life. If I don’t save him, I will never be at ease!” Lan Ru shouted in dismay. Despite knowing that her father would not agree to her request, she still could not help but plead.

Lan Yunshan snorted. “Look at what kind of people you’re becoming friends with! Is a mere n.o.body who just ascended a few thousand years ago worthy enough for me to rescue him?”

“Father, he saved my life. He exchanged his life for mine.” Lan Ru stared firmly at her father, not cowering at all.

“Ha ha ha ha…” Lan Yunshan broke out into loud laughter. “Saved your life? Let me ask you something. If you hadn’t left, wouldn’t he have been killed by Jiang Dai?”

Lan Ru could only reply, “He would.”

If she had not left, everyone would have been killed.

“Isn’t that enough then? Regardless of whether you left or not, he would undoubtedly die. Why talk about him exchanging his life for yours? Besides, you saved him back then. Otherwise, would he still have been alive today?” Lan Yunshan sounded somewhat stern.

He had left something out. He knew very well how terrifying Jiang Dai was. Even if he personally went there, he might not necessarily save Di Jiu from Jiang Dai’s clutches.

A hint of despair flashed through Lan Ru’s eyes. After slowly turning around, she walked toward the hall entrance.

“Stay in the Cloud Distant Palace for a few days. You should calm down after running around outside for so long. After some time, Zhong You and Monarch Li Tu will come here to visit. They were among the Ten Major Geniuses of Jiang Dai’s generation. You should sit aside.” Lan Yunshan spoke slightly slower.

Without stopping, she responded calmly, “Father, I won’t stay in the Cloud Distant Palace.”

“Don’t you dare!” Lan Yunshan was furious.

Turning her head around to look at the furious Lan Yunshan, Lan Ru still said calmly, “Didn’t you drive my mother away like this? If you want me to die, I can do that right away. If you want me to welcome those people that I dislike hypocritically, I’d rather die.”

Then, Lan Ru once again turned around, quickened her pace, and rapidly walked out of the hall.

Lan Yunshan watched in a daze as his daughter’s figure disappeared. For a moment, he did not call her name.
