“The Lunar Forsaken Tomb is gone…” Mi Ji hurriedly shouted.

 The Lunar Forsaken Tomb was gone? Zhangsun Huang looked at Mi Ji doubtfully. Chi Zhengshan, Black Fire, and the others who came out looked at Mi Ji in confusion.

 The Lunar Forsaken Tomb was a mystic area. How could it disappear all of a sudden?

 Qian Fenghua, who came out last, said slowly, “Sect Master Mi, what happened? Tell us in detail. You don’t need to be anxious.”

 “Greetings, Senior Qian.” Even though Qian Fenghua was only a second-stage Immortal Emperor, Mi Ji respected him a lot. He knew very well who Qian Fenghua was. Di Jiu called Qian Fenghua his Master, so he dared not casually call him Daoist Qian Fenghua.

 Qian Fenghua knew that he was respected because of Di Jiu, so he gestured with his hands. “City Lord Mi, tell us what is going on with the Lunar Forsaken Tomb?”

 Qian Fenghua knew that the Lunar Forsaken Tomb was not only a mystic area but also one of the top-notch mystic areas the cultivators of the Four Major Immortal Continents relied on for survival.

 In the Lunar Forsaken Tomb was the Dark Ruins Canyon and the Lunar Immortal Sea’s Chaotic Law Zone. Each of these places brought endless benefits to the cultivators in this immortal continent.

 Mi Ji calmed himself down and said, “Everyone, take a look at this image…”

 Mi Ji took out a video crystal ball and showed everyone a void image.

A terrifying rift had appeared above the Lunar Forsaken Tomb and a huge Void Chaos funnel had spun out from the rift.

 Then, the boundless Lunar Forsaken Tomb had shrunk without a limit and been swept away by this funnel… Countless cultivators in the Lunar Forsaken Tomb had cried for help mournfully, but this had not changed their fate at all.

 Zhangsun Huang muttered, “It’s no wonder that Big Brother did not allow us to enter the Lunar Forsaken Tomb. Since it turns out that this can disappear…”

 “This is very likely a Dharma treasure. I reckon the Spirit Weapon of the Dharma treasure has been awakened, so it escaped.” Qian Fenghua did not have a high cultivation level but he had knowledge and experience.

 Chi Zhengshan nodded. “I think so too. Since it has already escaped, let it be. There will be one less place for a test trial in the Four Major Immortal Protectorates at most. As for the dead cultivators, I can only say that they didn’t have a good fate. Cultivating the Dao is also like cultivating one’s luck.”

 Mi Ji shook his head. “It would be fine if that was the case. However, not long after the Lunar Forsaken Tomb disappeared, an angry howl was heard above the void. I heard that clearly. If the person who took away the Sacred Yin Pearl doesn’t kneel at the historical ruins of the Lunar Forsaken Tomb with it within a year, he will erase all this void when he arrives in this Immortal Protectorate three years later…”

 After hearing that, everyone was stunned.

 Even though everyone knew what the Sacred Yin Pearl was and who had taken it away, would he still bring it back after taking it?

 Nobody considered this matter a joke. The Lunar Forsaken Tomb had evidently been taken away by the rumored expert from the Upper Realm, who wanted to come and destroy the Four Major Immortal Continents. Wouldn’t that be very troublesome?

 They could go to the Cultivation World if they had a Plane Split Talisman of that level.

 …

 Di Jiu opened his eyes. The unceasing nomological Dao rune auras that surrounded him had stopped. At the moment, Di Jiu’s aura was not as strong as before, but he knew very well that he was much stronger compared to when he had just entered the space between the two realms.

 Regardless of what Xu Baishang was thinking, Di Jiu was grateful for him. Without the Dao meridian Xu Baishang had given him, he could not have attained the peak Immortal Emperor even if he had entered seclusion for centuries.

 The Law of the Universe was incomplete here and he could not cultivate with just the Heaven Earth Essence Energy. Since Di Jiu cultivated the Nomological Qi Circulation, his understanding of the Law of the Universe had already surpassed the level of an ordinary cultivator. He could thus use his own world to attain the peak Immortal Emperor in the rich Heaven Earth Essence Energy.

 Since he had attained the peak Immortal Emperor, Di Jiu was certain that he could no longer advance even if he continued to stay here to cultivate, no matter how much Heaven Earth Essence Energy was there.

 Di Jiu had to leave this place, so he put away the 10-feet Dao meridian that he had not used completely. He felt the Heaven Earth nomological aura and searched for a place, both his hands condensing all the Immortal Essence force coming from his body to bind the nomological auras and rip them.

 Bam! An even more terrifying Heaven Earth Essence Energy force devoured them back, sending Di Jiu 1,000 feet away, where he hit a piece of meteorite that was hurriedly escaping.

 If Di Jiu had not body-tempered to a peak Immortal Divine Body, all his bones would have been broken without an exception.

 Di Jiu sighed. The force of ripping apart a low-level realm was too terrifying indeed. At least, he could not do so now.

 After resting for half a day, Di Jiu then chose to condense the Immortal Essence and his nomological Dao runes to rip the other realm.

 He ripped the location where Xu Baishang had ripped apart the realm. According to Xu Baishang, this would be the true area of the Dao World as long as it was ripped apart.

 Di Jiu was disappointed that when he used all his strength, he was still sent back by the powerful force of the counterattack. This was because he could not touch the edge of the Void Realm at all.

 After all, his cultivation level was low.

 Di Jiu actually grew somewhat anxious. Before he had attained the seventh-stage Immortal Emperor, he had not been able to rip apart the realm. However, now that he had attained the peak Immortal Emperor, he was still unable to do so. This meant that he was very likely going to die of old age between these two realms.

 In between the two realms, his cultivation level could not improve and he could not rip the realm apart.

 Di Jiu tried to escape from the place between the two realms frantically. He would try to rip apart the realm at every distance he escaped to see whether he had found a weak node.

 Di Jiu was disappointed. After a few months, he had tried countless points and even tried the location where he had entered but he still could not rip apart the realm.

 He did not understand how Yan Hui had entered the Furious Forest with Mo Yuxuan back then. Yan Hui had probably also wanted to enter the space between the two realms. How could she have gotten out when he was trapped inside?

 In just a few months, Di Jiu had found a pile of uncommon materials between the two realms, but not the way out.

 Fortunately, Di Jiu was a cultivator. After his initial impatience, he calmed down instead. He did not search for the way out on purpose but focused on searching for all kinds of ores and occasionally tried to rip apart the void.

 Another month passed in the blink of an eye. One day, Di Jiu stopped in a gray zone and saw three white flowers and three black flowers.

 If he did not have the Book of the World, he would definitely not know what these were. However, he was now very clear about the value of these six flowers. Even though he had not gone to the Dao World, he knew that these flowers were priceless there.

 These flowers were called Two-Realm Flowers and normally grew in between the two realms. They also appeared in pairs of one black and one white flower. The six flowers were actually three pairs of Two-Realm Flowers.

 Two-Realm Flowers were precious, so even one pair was rare, let alone three pairs.

 Even though Di Jiu did not need these Two-Realm Flowers now, he could not help but get excited.

 He took out the jade box carefully and put each of them into it before setting up a restriction.

 The Two-Realm Flowers could only survive in the two realms. Once they were picked, they would definitely wither even if they were planted into the Ninth World.

 Di Jiu had just picked the fourth flower when he sensed spatial fluctuations near him.

 This was the first time he sensed the void fluctuations between the two realms ever since he had entered it. Thanks to his thorough understanding of the Heaven Earth Law, he immediately understood what was going on.

 Someone had ascended. A cultivator had passed through the two realms not far away.

 Di Jiu abandoned the two remaining flowers without hesitation and immediately rushed out with his Spiritual Force escape technique.

 When he rushed out, the spatial rift of the ascension rapidly started to stabilize. He could clearly capture the location of the edge of the realm. He could not care about anything else as he frantically lifted his hand to rip apart the void realm, which was not completely stable yet.
