Ninth In the World

Chapter 670: Advancement of the Array Dao

Ji Hongsen nodded his head. “That’s right. I knew there was an ancient array pattern underneath the Netherworld Corner Castle. However, even though we have seen it, we still need to decipher it.”

Ji Hongsen suddenly turned to Di Jiu. “Daoist Di, you have three Five-Element Array Flags and a powerful Array Dao. We’re counting on you to open this ancient array pattern.”

Apart from Di Jiu, the person with the lowest cultivation there was at the early-stage Primordial Chaos. A Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperor naturally could see that this ancient array pattern was an entrance with one glance. However, it was not easy to open.

The best solution was to decipher this ancient array pattern. They would perish and their Dao would disappear if they were not careful and they turned into the Dao runes among the array pattern. Apart from that, the only solution was to attack it forcefully with a 50% success rate. If they were lucky, they would break the entrance of this array pattern. Otherwise, if they were unlucky, they’d naturally only dream about entering it.

“That’s right. Daoist Di has three Five-Element Flags and is superior in the Array Dao. He’s the most suitable person to decipher this array pattern,” said Fan Yuan.

“If you’re worried, I can also do it. Unfortunately, I don’t have the Five-Element Flags,” the Sea Clan’s Ma Jujia said this time.

They had half-intentionally surrounded Di Jiu. If Di Jiu did not make a move, they would definitely join forces and deal with him this time.

Ji Hongsen sneered deep down. He had called people to this place so that they could work together to break this array pattern. Di Jiu was courting death since he had allowed Tang Xitan to go and had even dared to reveal the Five-Element Flags.

All this aside, this kid had clearly escaped from Guang Mingzi and returned. He was simply fearless. Nobody had joined forces with him previously, but for the sake of everyone’s interests, they all needed to work with him.

Di Jiu nodded. “Everyone is right. This array pattern should be studied by me. Before I do that, I have two requests. First, since this array pattern is very complicated, nobody should disturb me while I’m studying it. Therefore, I’ll set up a Defense Array.”

“This is no problem.” Unexpectedly, the Dark Red Sacred Dao City Lord Dao Chuanxun had spoken, which puzzled Di Jiu. In his opinion, this person was very timid and catered to all sides. It was bold of him to stand out and say something.

Nobody retorted, so Di Jiu continued. “Second, everyone knows that, during this process, I might perish and my Dao could disappear if I’m not careful. Thus, I hope that after I succeed, any problems won’t concern me. You can’t expect me to do everything, okay?”

“Alright, we agree. You shall decipher it.” Ji Hongsen agreed without hesitation. He did not even limit Di Jiu to a certain time to decipher this array pattern. It was because he knew very well that if he did not manage to decipher this array pattern within 18 hours, he would be swallowed by the ancient array pattern.

After Di Jiu set up a Defense Divine Array, he stepped into the eight-trigram array pattern without hesitation.

Even though Ji Hongsen had not suggested to decipher this array pattern himself, Di Jiu would do it first. This kind of ancient array pattern might just be a stumbling block to other people, but it was truly good stuff in Di Jiu’s opinion.

Both of Di Jiu’s hands landed on top of this eight-trigram array pattern. The Dao runes on him circulated and the Heavenly Dao had permeated the eight-trigram array pattern.

A brand new Array Dao law was captured by Di Jiu. That mysterious, esoteric technique of portraying the array pattern made it seem like a wider door had opened before Di Jiu.

In just half an hour, Di Jiu’s figure vanished under everyone’s Spiritual Force. They tried to infiltrate the array with their Spiritual Force but were blocked by complicated, mysterious laws.

Ji Hongsen frowned and could vaguely sense that he seemed to have made a mistake.

Several hours flew by in the blink of an eye. Ji Hongsen could unexpectedly sense the aura around Di Jiu rise. Therefore, he decided to no longer endure this. Since Di Jiu had not been swallowed by the eight-trigram ancient array pattern after such a long time, he could be very likely enlightened about something inside.

“This is taking too long.” Ji Hongsen stepped forward and lifted his hand to rip the Defense Array that Di Jiu had set up.

Boom! At the same time, Di Jiu’s Dao rune aura once again rose by a level and he opened his eyes in pleasant surprise. He stopped being enlightened on the array pattern, as he knew he had become a level-six Divine Array King. If he added in the Five-Element Flags, he could even set up a level-seven Divine Array now. In other words, Di Jiu was barely considered a level-seven Divine Array Emperor.

Upon seeing Ji Hongsen lift his hand to rip his Defense Array, Di Jiu sneered deep down. This old man was really sinister. If he had done this half an hour ago, he might really have failed. Right now, Di Jiu could say that the old bastard had miscalculated.

Di Jiu suddenly stood up before he pointed at Ji Hongsen and scolded him. “Old bastard, I was painstakingly deciphering the entrance for everyone. What do you mean by this, old thing? You actually plotted against me, you sinister old chicken!”

As Di Jiu stood up to rain curses on him, his surrounding indistinct Dao rune aura vanished into the air. He then appeared clearly before everyone’s eyes once again.

Ji Hongsen looked at Di Jiu in shock. Even if Di Jiu was not swallowed by this ancient array pattern, he would most likely have been unable to break away from it. Could Di Jiu have always been pretending to decipher it but not have done anything in fact? This was unlikely. His surrounding Dao rune circulation would not lie. Regardless of whether he had deciphered it, he would be incorporated into this ancient array pattern right away.

But why was Di Jiu still not dead?

“Di Jiu, watch what you’re saying. I was only worried about you.” Ji Hongsen’s face had turned somewhat green.

Di Jiu laughed disdainfully. “Worried about me? Old scoundrel, you were worried I would be enlightened about something, right? After half an hour, I could already open this array door. However, you disturbed me. He he... I’ve failed now. Aren’t you an old scoundrel?”

Even though Ji Hongsen was furious, before he could say anything, Fan Yuan stared at Di Jiu and said, “Daoist Di, is that true?”

Di Jiu replied calmly, “That’s right. I’m telling the truth. Since you guys won’t let me decipher, you can do it instead.”

Upon saying that, Di Jiu lifted his hand to sweep away his array flag and stepped out of the eight-trigram array pattern without bothering.

Several people had fixed their gazes on Ji Hongsen. They clearly were unsatisfied and they blamed him. Everyone was aware that Ji Hongsen wanted Di Jiu to throw his life away. However, the fact that Di Jiu had said that he had been about to open this array pattern was not a small matter.

If this array pattern was opened, everyone could go in. If they attacked it by force, it would very likely collapse, not just disturb the Chaos Green Lotus. Everyone would then end up with nothing.

As for whether Di Jiu had lied, everyone believed he would not dare. If he did, he would make everyone furious and they would work together to get rid of him.

Ji Hongsen’s expression turned ugly, and he had no choice but to say with cupped fists, “I was impulsive just now. I disturbed Daoist Di’s enlightenment. I hereby apologize to everyone.”

Fan Yuan told Di Jiu, “Daoist Di, Insular Lord Ji did not intentionally disturb you. Could you do it once more? What do you think?”

If Di Jiu once again failed to decipher it, he would not be able to blame them for being rude. At the same time, they would join forces to open this ancient array pattern entrance and would first kill Di Jiu.

Di Jiu said with a sigh, “I don’t mind doing it again. Unfortunately, I used a supreme-grade Dao meridian, a few high-grade Dao meridians, and some Primordial Dao fruits just now. If I do it again, I can’t use these things anymore.”

Everyone silently scolded Di Jiu for being shameless.

Ji Hongsen said coldly, “I have a high-grade Dao meridian here and two Primordial Dao fruits. I’ll offer them to contribute.”

He gave him these things but wondered if he even had a life left.

“That’s not enough.” Di Jiu chuckled. He was too lazy to even take those things from Ji Hongsen.
