Chapter 638: Call Jiang Dai Over
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Di Jiu stopped the flying boat and looked at the vast void before him in shock. He had experienced many voids and seen too many amazing sceneries in the universe.
However, it was the first time he saw the vast scenery with the majestic grandeur before his eyes.
An ocean whose edge the Spiritual Force could not touch had abruptly appeared in the void before him. If the ocean waves were not crashing, Di Jiu would have suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes and Spiritual Force.
Apart from the coastline on his side, the other parts of this vast ocean were boundless.
The coastline on his side floated in the void, looking extremely lofty.
The ocean waves were sometimes very strong, but they could not slap the void. There seemed to be a virtual force in between the void and the ocean that stopped them. At first, Di Jiu thought there were Dharma Arrays. After he had taken a look carefully, he realized that there were no Dharma Arrays here.
Without any hesitation, Di Jiu controlled the flying boat and rushed into the Void Ocean. This time, he did not allow Lightning to enter the Ninth World. Lightning was considered a level-one divine beast now. Although its level was still rather low, it was enough even if it helped him do some simple things.
Once he entered the Void Ocean, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force scanned an extremely grand divine city that towered above the Void Ocean with majestic grandeur.
Di Jiu’s flying boat went in. Before he could reach this divine city, he saw a wide starry jade road leading to the void outside the divine city. At the end of this road, there was a square that extended for tens of thousands of feet.
Given Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force, he could naturally sense that he would touch the alleviation restriction if he advanced any further. Di Jiu landed the flying boat on the void square.
There were numerous cultivators there that kept coming in and out. None of them found Di Jiu’s arrival strange.
Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force landed on the divine city in the distance. There were a few big words on top: Dark Red Sacred Dao City.
“Let’s go to the Dark Red Sacred Dao City.” Di Jiu patted Lightning.
He had heard that there were numerous treasures here. Since he was a Primordial Dao Alchemy Deity and a Dao Transformation Alchemy Saint, he would not perform poorly here.
Once Di Jiu reached the entrance of the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, his face darkened.
At the entrance of the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, a handsome young Dao Birth cultivator was stopped by two Dao Transformation cultivators. This Dao Birth young man was very battered, and his aura was really unstable. Thus, he had to be seriously injured.
Di Jiu knew this fellow. He was the Great Buddha Mountain’s Ding Chi. This fellow was like him. His picture had been hung in the Dao World by Jiang Dai and he had been listed as wanted at every gate of the sacred cities.
Di Jiu had never interacted with Ding Chi. What made his expression turn ugly was not that Ding Chi had been stopped, but because he had once again seen his own portrait at the gate of the Dark Red Sacred Dao City.
The details on the portrait naturally stated that he was wanted. Without needing to ask, Di Jiu also knew this was Jiang Dai’s doing. Since Di Jiu had not disguised himself before coming to the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, some people recognized him. He was Di Jiu, who was portrayed as a wanted person at the city gate.
Di Jiu did not turn and leave, as Jiang Dai was only a Primordial Chaos expert. That’s right, he was no match for a Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperor. However, if a Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperor had listed Di Jiu as wanted at will, he had overestimated himself.
Di Jiu took out his Heavenly Aqua Saber and struck with a saber flare, tearing the portrait that listed him as wanted into scraps. There was now a deep ravine in the city wall due to Di Jiu’s saber move.
He wanted to see after he had torn the portrait, if anyone dared to capture him, that would show who Jiang Dai’s lackeys were.
When he had been at the Dao Birth, he had killed a bunch of Jiang Dai’s lackeys. Now that he was at the Dao Transformation, he would even kill a Primordial Dao Sacred Emperor if one approached.
The surrounding cultivators looked at Di Jiu in shock. Di Jiu was simply too powerful compared to them. This was the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, a place with many cultivators. Before this fellow had even entered the city, he had torn his wanted poster with one saber move.
The person who had hung an arrest warrant before the Dark Red Sacred Dao City was definitely not easy-going. Otherwise, they would have no right to even hang it up. The wanted person was even more arrogant, as he would rather tear this void arrest warrant with one saber move.
Di Jiu was shocked that nobody made a move on him after he tore this arrest warrant into scraps with one saber move. Furthermore, based on his observation, nobody had spread any messages.
Could Jiang Dai not be there? He was the one who left an arrest warrant before leaving, right? It did not seem like it. Wasn’t Ding Chi stopped? Ding Chi was also a fellow wanted by Jiang Dai.
“You’re Di Jiu?” Ding Chi recognized Di Jiu at that moment. Since Di Jiu was wanted by Jiang Dai just like him, he’d had to escape to the Void Ocean.
After arriving in the Void Ocean, he had seen Di Jiu’s arrest warrant but not his. He also knew that Di Jiu was truly the one Jiang Dai wanted and he had been excluded. Based on his observation, Jiang Dai had left the Dark Red Sacred Dao City long ago and had casually put up this arrest warrant. Therefore, he had dared to enter the Dark Red Sacred Dao City.
Di Jiu nodded and approached Ding Chi. He then said with a smile, “It looks like you haven’t been living as well as I am. Why? Are these two fellows Jiang Dai’s lackeys?”
Even though he had not seen Ding Chi’s arrest warrant, Di Jiu subconsciously believed that Ding Chi had been caught by Jiang Dai’s people.
“Punk, you’re very arrogant,” a Dao Transformation cultivator guarding Jiang Dai said sarcastically when he heard Di Jiu.
He did not know who Jiang Dai was. However, Di Jiu was simply too arrogant. He had dared to use his saber to tear the arrest warrant and had even said that the two of them, who were Dao Transformation experts, were Jiang Dai’s lackeys.
The first impression was always the strongest. Di Jiu, who believed that these two Dao Transformation experts were Jiang Dai’s people, lifted his hand and slapped one of them without hesitation. “I am arrogant. I will cripple your meridians today. Call Jiang Dai over. Tell him the person who is going to destroy his nest is here. I will meet him at the Dark Red Sacred Dao City gate. Even if I destroy his nest, what can he do to me?”
Everyone knew that when Di Jiu slapped him, the Dao Transformation cultivator had no way of avoiding it. He could only feel his surroundings being restricted by a boundless law. This should be his domain, which was simply too strong.
Slap! Di Jiu slapped this Dao Transformation cultivator and sent him flying before he landed on the edge of the city wall. He opened his mouth and spat out a blood arrow, looking very pale.
The other Dao Transformation cultivator who was guarding Ding Chi stepped aside in horror. Ding Chi then completely freed himself from his restraints.
“Second-step…” The Dao Transformation cultivator who had been sent flying by Di Jiu’s slap looked at him with a pale face. Di Jiu looked harmless, and there was no distinct aura all over him. How could he be a second-step expert? With just one slap, he had been unable to resist and some of his meridians had been destroyed.
“Get lost. Call Jiang Dai. I won’t wait long!” Di Jiu shouted angrily.
The two Dao Transformation cultivators did not hesitate. They hurriedly rushed into the Dark Red Sacred Dao City.
Di Jiu naturally did not dare enter the Dark Red Sacred Dao City. Even though he was now at the early-stage Dao Transformation, he wanted to compare himself with Jiang Dai and see how far he was. He was sure that, given his current strength, Jiang Dai most likely would not catch up to him. Di Jiu was the strongest based on his escape technique, and not his cultivation level. Moreover, he had seen Jiang Dai’s speed. He was very fast, but ever since Di Jiu had attained the Dao Transformation, he was much faster than before.
In the vast void, he did not believe that his nomological escape technique was not as good as Jiang Dai’s.
However, once he entered the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, Di Jiu was not sure that he could evade Jiang Dai.
“Brother Di, you’re already at the second step?” Ding Chi looked at Di Jiu in shock. He had thought that since Di Jiu had entered the Dao Ridge, his cultivation level should be similar to his.
Di Jiu had managed to reach the second step in just a short time? How had he been living all these years?
