Ninth In the World

Chapter 804: Dao Lord Valley

Di Jiu felt certain that Bei Yingshu was not a simple person. Bei Yingshu seemed to look down on him but Di Jiu still cupped his fists and said, “Please guide me, senior, if I encounter any problems in the course of analyzing the Array Dao.”

Bei Yingshu shook his head. “I’m unable to teach you given your aptitude. If one day you find yourself unable to persevere any longer, feel free to join me in the cage.”

Bei Yingshu found the thought of becoming a level-nine Divine Array Emperor at a place like this laughable. It would be better to ponder if one could survive in this illusory flame in the first place when perhaps 10,000 years passed.

Di Jiu had already sensed that there was a major array erected within Bei Yingshu’s cage. This major array was capable to blocking the illusory flame completely, something that impressed Di Jiu greatly. After all, Bei Yingshu’s Purple Palace had been locked by Dark Sift Steel and he had virtually no cultivation. It was truly impressive that Bei Yingshu was able to set up a major array like this to block the illusory flame, under these circumstances.

Di Jiu was able to accomplish that as well, and with greater ease than Bei Yingshu. Nonetheless, Di Jiu knew that it was because his Dao was the Nomological Dao. Bei Yingshu most certainly should not be as lucky as him, to have obtained the Ninth Dao Law and cultivate the Nomological Dao.

Di Jiu took no heed of Bei Yingshu as he started to analyze the restriction Dharma fragment inside the Solitary Buddha Lava, while simultaneously analyzing the level-nine Confinement Killing Divine Array here.

He completely lost himself in researching on the Array Dao, ignoring his surrounding and even Bei Yingshu. Repeatedly, he made some nomological array flags while scattering out some refined array flags and replicating level-eight Divine Arrays one after another.

At the same time, he was predicting the array pattern and array foundation of the level-eight Divine Array. After many failed attempts, he discovered the Array Dao law of the level-eight Divine Array from the changes of the nomological array patterns.

At the beginning, Bei Yingshu was rendered speechless by Di Jiu’s actions. Yet, three months later, he became shocked.

Dao runes circulated around Di Jiu, each emitting array pattern aura invisible to the naked eye.

Did Di Jiu enter a moment of enlightenment just like that? It was impossible. However, Bei Yingshu clearly saw the changes in the array pattern aura surrounding Di Jiu. Its color had deepened with time, before becoming so abstruse that even he could not understand it. One should note that he was once a level-seven Divine Array Emperor.

Another two weeks passed when Bei Yingshu suddenly sensed that the aura surrounding Di Jiu changed. The array pattern aura became increasingly distinct. Furthermore, numerous abstruse Array Dao laws appeared around him. Di Jiu seemed to have transformed, as though he had been upgraded one level.

Bei Yingshu drew a cold gasp of air, as he knew that Di Jiu’s Array Dao had achieved a breakthrough and was currently at a level above his own.

If his guess was correct, Di Jiu had just reached the ranks of a level-eight Divine Array Emperor from level-seven.

Such powerful ability to understand. Bei Yingshu did not know that Di Jiu had already been at the verge of breaking through to become a level-eight Divine Array Emperor, so it was the breakthrough happened smoothly and naturally. At this moment, he was beginning to believe in the possibility that Di Jiu could become a level-nine Divine Array Emperor.

Despite knowing that he had broken through to become a level-eight Divine Array Emperor, Di Jiu was feel much joy and excitement. After all, this was within his expectation, seeing that he was already on the verge of a breakthrough. Even so, it took him several months to accomplish the process. Di Jiu realized that it did not seem that easy to be able to become a level-nine Divine Array Emperor.

...

Other than the Great Ultimate Realm which remained stagnant, many experts were produced from the Great Change Realm, the Great Simplicity Realm and the Great Commencement Realm of the Five Great Realms, all flourishing with passing time. The Great Simplicity Realm even became the head of the Five Great Realms, surpassing the Great Change Realm.

Only the Great Beginning Realm was left in a very awkward state as there were no experts that came from the newer generations. To the experts in the Great Beginning Realm, this was because the Great Beginning Realm itself was incomplete.

The perfection of the Great Beginning Realm was something impossible, but there was a chance now. This was because of Nuo La, acting as the person most determined to perfect the Great Beginning Realm. It would be an act of inviting death to oneself if the Great Beginning Realm wanted to merge with the Sacred Dao World when exceptional experts appeared in the latter.

Unexpectedly, things completely changed. The Creation War did resulted in the death of all Dao Integration experts from the Great Beginning Realm, but the apex experts of the Sacred Dao World had similarly disappeared.

This had instead given the Great Beginning Realm an opportunity to perfect itself. Over these years, other than frenziedly cultivating, Nuo La had been doing her best to let the Great Beginning Realm merge with the Sacred Dao World, so that it could become a true major world. Ultimately, she wished that it could surpass the Great Simplicity Realm.

The plan was initially progressing a little slowly but some was better than none. What Nuo La and the rest of the Great Beginning Realm’s experts did not expect was that Di Jiu suddenly arrived at the Heaven’s Beyond of Heaven and Earth.

One Di Jiu was nothing, no matter how powerful he was. In the end, he was severely injured after Nuo La attacked him with a few other Dao Integration Sacred Emperors. He had later escaped to places unknown.

Yet, only a short period of time had passed. Di Jiu had returned to the Heaven’s Beyond of Heaven and Earth, killing all Dao Integration experts there, gaining control of the place and destroying the altar set up there. He had killed everyone she had assigned to stay there.

After receiving this news, Nuo La was grateful that she was not at Heaven’s Beyond of Heaven and Earth then. She was not an arrogant person. Given the strength Di Jiu had displayed, she believed that Di Jiu would have killed here as well if she was present back then.

Nuo La did not question nor doubt that Di Jiu was able to become so strong in such a short period of time. After all, she believed that Dao Lord Ning of the Great Simplicity Realm back then was someone capable of such a feat as well.

Besides, Nuo La believed that Di Jiu would come to the Great Beginning Realm to eradicate the source of trouble.

Nuo La had lived for so many years, and she had fought against an expert like the Dao Lord Ning of the Great Simplicity Realm before. She certainly had her own survival method she lived by.

She had once instructed Nie Baichi to replicate and preserve the communication pearls of all captured cultivators from the Sacred Dao World. A small part of the cultivator’s imprint was engraved on the communication pearl, in which replication was a very difficult task. This skill was something Nuo La was well-versed in however, and she had even impart this knowledge to Nie Baichi. Nie Baichi was obedient and did not keep away Tang Beiwei’s communication pearl. Instead, he replicated it with the aid of Tang Beiwei’s Spiritual Force imprint.

Nuo La had been searching for a method after knowing that Di Jiu’s strength had suddenly increased exponentially. She attempted to protect both her life and the Great Beginning Realm.

In the end, she decided to take action to lure Di Jiu into a confinement array in order to kill him. The bait would be Tang Beiwei’s communication pearl. The original intention of letting Nie Baichi replicate all those communication pearls was to serve as prevention in case Dao Lord Ye suddenly appeared. It was unexpected that Di Jiu came instead of Dao Lord Ye.

The bait was ready but the act of trapping Di Jiu in the Confinement Killing Array was not easy.

Nuo La felt that a mere confinement array would not be capable of eliminating Di Jiu, given the failed attempt back at the Heaven’s Beyond of Heaven and Earth.

However, there existed a place Nuo La believed she could eliminated Di Jiu at, and that was the Dao Lord Valley. It was a place engulfed in Dao runes, where Spiritual Force could not permeate through. Anyone who entered never left.

It was said that the Solitary Buddha Lava could be found inside the Dao Lord Valley. There was also an apex Confinement Killing Divine Array inside as well. Even a third-step expert would meet their end there, and Di Jiu would be of no exception.

Nuo La stood outside the Great Beginning Realm’s Dao Lord Valley. A few years had passed and she was feeling some excitement. She had succeeded. Three years ago, she managed to lure Di Jiu into the Dao Lord Valley. She had personally guarded this place for the past three years, to confirm that Di Jiu did not reappear.

Despite that, Nuo La had no intentions of leaving the spot, having decided to guard the valley for 10 years. If there was still no news of Di Jiu after a decade, then she would proceed with continuing the plans Di Jiu had botched previously.

She was worried that Di Jiu could escape from within. Even then, Di Jiu’s life would most likely be hanging by a thread and she could then easily finish him off.

To Nuo La, everyone else, other than Di Jiu, in the Heaven’s Beyond of Heaven and Earth were all trash.
