Ninth In the World

Chapter 647: Scheming Against Jiang Dai

Xu Baishang looked at Di Jiu in amazement before he said after a while, “Jiang Dai didn’t go to Void City? How do you know?”

Di Jiu naturally would not tell him that Jiang Dai had touched his Dharma Array. He only said, “My premonition has always been very accurate. I predict that Jiang Dai did not leave and I believe he will come to the Dark Red Sacred Dao City within one month.”

Di Jiu reckoned that it would take around a month to go from the Dao World’s Defense Array outside the Search Lake to the Dark Red Sacred Dao City. Thus, he guessed that Jiang Dai would take around this long to come here.

Xu Baishang breathed in deeply and believed Di Jiu’s words. If Di Jiu had not been confident, he could not have survived to this day. While Jiang Dai was chasing him to kill him, he had even destroyed Jiang Dai’s territory. If Xu Baishang underestimated such a person, he would be a fool.

Apart from Di Jiu’s strength, which was not inferior to his, he was also frightened by Di Jiu. If Di Jiu could even destroy Jiang Dai’s territory, would he not dare to destroy his Void Mountain? He... was probably the only one who believed that.

“Brother Di, if you’re willing to listen to me, don’t think of killing Jiang Dai. Even though we are both perfected Primordial Dao experts, we’ll still be inferior to Jiang Dai even if we join forces,” Xu Baishang told Di Jiu as he looked at him.

He knew that Jiang Dai had come to kill Di Jiu and had even dared to come here alone. He simply had no alternatives, as he wanted the real Void Mountain.

He would not face Jiang Dai directly here. If Jiang Dai killed Di Jiu, he would take out something that Jiang Dai needed to exchange it for the Void Mountain.

Now that Jiang Dai clearly had not killed Di Jiu and his thing had been given to Di Jiu, he definitely could not exchange it for the Void Mountain. As a result, he could only choose to cooperate with Di Jiu.

Even though he had mentioned joining forces with Di Jiu to deal with Jiang Dai, that was only a suggestion. Xu Baishang was not so foolish as to really want to deal with Jiang Dai. Di Jiu had dared to say this because he had yet to meet the true powerful Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperor. Otherwise, he would not have said it.

Upon hearing Xu Baishang’s words, Di Jiu frowned a little. He truly wanted to make use of the Confinement Killing Array here to kill Jiang Dai before joining forces with Xu Baishang to kill Jiang Dai. Now that Xu Baishang had second thoughts, no matter how formidable he was alone, he would not dare to deal with Jiang Dai in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City.

Even if he wanted to see Jiang Dai’s strength, he would still go outside the Dark Red Sacred Dao City. Apart from that, he had to set up a few confinement arrays. This way, he would escape after witnessing this.

Upon seeing Di Jiu not say anything, Xu Baishang said, “Brother Di, I said the truth. Jiang Dai is not someone we can kill by joining forces. I might even get seriously injured and you might perish in his hands.”

If he did not join forces with Di Jiu and Jiang Dai obtained the Void Mountain, Xu Baishang would still have a chance to exchange something for the Void Mountain. Once he joined forces with Di Jiu to deal with Jiang Dai, even if Jiang Dai managed to snatch Di Jiu’s Void Mountain, he could only dream about exchanging something for it.

After sensing that Xu Baishang was serious, Di Jiu sighed and said, “In that case, I’ll set up a Confinement Killing Array and an Explosive Divine Array here. When Jiang Dai comes in, I will plot against him. If I succeed, we will return to kill him. If Jiang Dai is being plotted against and his strength is still there, how about we let him go temporarily?”

Xu Baishang nodded his head without hesitation and said, “Alright, we’ll do that.”

Di Jiu was the partner he had chosen to cooperate with. Most importantly, he did not know whether Di Jiu had the Void Mountain.

...

Three days later, Di Jiu and Xu Baishang secretly left the Dark Red Sacred Dao City.

Based on their method, it would not be hard to leave the Dark Red Sacred Dao City without anyone knowing.

Di Jiu had set up three Confinement Killing Divine Arrays and an Explosive Divine Array at the place where he was in seclusion. These major arrays were underneath his Surveillance Array.

Di Jiu was still worried that Jiang Dai would suspect it, so he had even left a small chunk of supreme-grade Dao meridians there. In any case, these supreme-grade Dao meridians were Jiang Dai’s. If he could seriously injure Jiang Dai, this small chunk of supreme-grade Dao meridians would be worth it.

Two more weeks passed. Di Jiu and Xu Baishang had gotten far from the Void Ocean before they stopped.

Di Jiu set up a Surveillance Array Screen for the sake of monitoring Jiang Dai’s situation.

When Xu Baishang sensed Di Jiu’s formidable Array Dao technique, he was shocked. He was glad that he had not made a move on Di Jiu. If he had made a move in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, he definitely would not have gotten the desired outcome. He did not believe that Di Jiu would dare to enter seclusion in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City without leaving any trump cards behind.

Jiang Dai came faster than Di Jiu had expected and appeared outside the Dark Red Sacred Dao City four days before one month was up.

When Jiang Dai saw that his arrest warrant was not there anymore, he would guess that Di Jiu had been there. If Di Jiu had even dared to destroy Dai He Hall, was tearing an arrest warrant a big deal?

The fact that Di Jiu was entering seclusion in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City was no longer a secret. Jiang Dai grabbed any cultivator he met to inquire and discovered what Di Jiu had done in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City.

When he heard that Di Jiu had arrived in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City and dared to stay there to enter seclusion, the corners of Jiang Dai’s mouth revealed a hint of a sneer. After a few steps, he arrived outside Di Jiu’s Alchemy and Weapon Pavilion.

Jiang Dai stood here, clearly sensing the Divine Spirit Qi of the supreme-grade Dao meridian.

At that moment, Jiang Dai was sure that Di Jiu was in seclusion there. He had indeed set up the Defense Array well, as well as a level-three Divine Array. This nobody certainly thought he was in the Void City...

Since he was about to capture this nobody, Jiang Dai could not calm down. He guessed that Di Jiu had bigger secrets than him. Otherwise, how could he improve so much in such a short time?

If a cultivator came to the Dao World alone to become a level-three Divine Array Master, he would need thousands or even tens of thousands of years, no matter how good his aptitude was. However, it had taken Di Jiu only hundreds of years before his cultivation level had greatly improved. Regardless of how many secrets he had or how powerful he was, there would be no secrets when he died.

Jiang Dai sneered and lifted his hands to rip apart Di Jiu’s level-three Divine Array. Then, he stepped into it without hesitation.

He wanted to stop Jiang Dai with a mere level-three Divine Array?

Something was not right. Jiang Dai sensed that something was not right when he stepped into the level-three Divine Defense Array. Even if he was a level-three Divine Array Master who had just advanced, how could he leak the Divine Spirit Qi of his supreme-grade Dao meridian around the place where he was in seclusion? Besides, even if it was leaked, it should have the Dao rune fluctuation of his cultivation. However, he could not sense any Dao rune fluctuation at all, only the leakage of the Divine Spirit Qi of the supreme-grade Dao runes.

Jiang Dai immediately realized that this could be a trap. However, he was still not afraid. So what if there was a trap? He possessed absolute strength!

Even if this Divine Array exploded, it would not injure him at all.

Jiang Dai then took a step back to get out first. Even though this trap could not harm him, he did not wish to be plotted against without a reason. Since Di Jiu had set up a trap here, that meant that Di Jiu had left, which made him feel the most disappointed.

When Jiang Dai had just moved back, he suddenly felt his surrounding space change. The surrounding space seemed to change instantly and a terrifying spatial fluctuation aura rushed forth.

The Divine Array really exploded...

Jiang Dai was furious. He was not afraid of the explosion of this Divine Array, but he was furious that this nobody had plotted against him several times.

Then, Jiang Dai was horrified. What kind of technique was this that allowed the Confinement Killing Array to shift? When he had taken a step back, it had been akin to leaving the core of the Confinement Killing Array. While he retreated, this Confinement Killing Array also retreated. Such a technique...

Boom, boom, boom! The terrifying lacerations in space could be heard. At that moment, a kind of explosion swept over the place where Di Jiu was in seclusion, forming a small spatial crack.

The frantic spatial constraint auras enveloped Jiang Dai. At that moment, he could sense that he had been crushed by the universe and it was hard for him to breathe.

This was not a level-three Divine Array, but a level-five Divine Array. It was the explosion of a level-five Divine Array chain. Jiang Dai’s eyes turned bloodshot. The fury he felt for Di Jiu could not disappear even if the vast sea toppled over.
