Ninth In the World

Chapter 394: The Nutritious Fire-Element Position

Di Jiu considered numerous methods, including using the Spiritual Force escape technique, using the Dao fire to pave a way, and using a Defense Array to force his way through...

However, Di Jiu did not feel that any of these methods was safe. Even though the fire-element position was extremely weak, he was still incapable of entering this Dao-Sealing Array.

“Black Fire...” Di Jiu returned to the flying shuttle and discovered that Xie Huang had come out of his seclusion and was standing together with Black Fire.

“Big Brother, where is this place?” Xie Huang had just come out, so he had yet to have the chance to ask Black Fire what was going on.

Di Jiu pointed to the Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array in front and said, “There is something I need inside it. I will bring Black Fire with me later to enter the array. If anything happens to me and Black Fire, take Junior Sister Yuxuan and Little Tree away from here immediately.”

Di Jiu did not ask Xie Huang to help him purchase the Agama True Glazed Water. After all, if he was to meet his doom here, Xie Huang would not be able to help with anything. Thus, it would be meaningless to speak of this matter.

“Big Brother, my strength is greater than Black Fire’s. I will accompany you instead,” said Xie Huang without hesitation as he slapped himself on the chest.

Di Jiu waved his hand. “You’re useless. It must be Black Fire.”

“Move aside. You can’t match my capabilities.” Black Fire landed on Di Jiu’s shoulder without hesitation.

Black Fire was extremely happy that Di Jiu was bringing him along into the Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array. The fire origin aura within the array was something he needed.

“Alright, I will wait for you here.” Xie Huang felt helpless. Black Fire had just become a level-four immortal demon, yet he had become a Great Unity Immortal a long time ago.

However, he was unable to object against Di Jiu when the latter said that he was useless.

Xie Huang looked up to Di Jiu immensely. After all, Di Jiu had helped him expel the desire poison, an act that even his father had been unable to accomplish. It was also Di Jiu who had refined the Starry Sky Tea.

A Confinement Killing Array within the Starry Sky Tea House was able to easily kick an Immortal King out of the store. None of the friends he had made in the past had compared to Big Brother Di Jiu.

Most importantly, Di Jiu treated him as a sincere friend and not the son of an Immortal Emperor.

The cultivation techniques, including the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art, the Spiritual Force escape technique and the technique that allowed one to open the galaxy meridian, were all heaven-defying.

In other words, a father might not even have imparted all these cultivation techniques to his son. However, Big Brother Di Jiu had imparted all of them to him without hesitation.

While standing outside the Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array with Di Jiu once again, Black Fire asked, “Big Brother, are you thinking of letting me tear this void apart to enter the array directly?”

Di Jiu nodded his head. “That’s right. I would most likely be unable to enter the array without you here.”

After considering numerous methods, Di Jiu had realized that he would not be able to enter the array without tearing open the void first. Black Fire possessed the capability to accomplish such a feat. In the past, when Black Fire had been just a level-one immortal demon, he had been capable of tearing open the void above the Sky Screen Pit. In the process, he had also been able to see what lay on the other side. That was why Di Jiu believed that this method would be successful.

Black Fire replied awkwardly, “Big Brother, I have sensed the void here. I could tear it apart if there was no Dao-Sealing Array. However, while it’s present, I don’t think I can do it.”

“Don’t worry. Tear the void open when I instruct you to do so.” Di Jiu was well aware of how powerful the Dao-Sealing Array would be. It was something Black Fire would not be able to make a laceration of, even if the Fire Origin Pearl was no longer situated at the fire-element position, which had become significantly weaker as a result.

Once again, Di Jiu communicated with the Golden Dao Law through the fire-element position by using his intent. He received an affirmation shortly thereafter. The Golden Dao Law was capable of weakening the void laws at the fire-element position within the span of 10 breaths. That locale could be torn open by Black Fire, given the capability he possessed.

A few seconds passed. There was no need for Di Jiu to remind him. Black Fire also sensed that the position of the array in front of him had become weaker. Almost in the same instant that Di Jiu gave him the cue, he reached out with his two claws and pulled.

Boom! A violent aura surged over, causing Black Fire to spit out a mouthful of black blood.

Black Fire knew that he had opened the wrong position at his first attempt, yet he did not hesitate to pull at the air once again immediately. Black Fire became increasingly weak as the violent aura surged at him again.

Di Jiu took out two Zenith Jade Pills and placed them in Black Fire’s mouth. His injuries started healing immediately and he made his third attempt.

“This is the place!” yelled Di Jiu as he rushed inside, bringing Black Fire along with him. At the end of the void passageway Black Fire created was the Golden Dao Law, which was bound by numerous engravings.

“Black Fire, help me block the fire-element position aura behind with my Dao fire. I want to save this Golden Dao Law,” commanded Di Jiu as he took his Dao fire out.

He was already inside the Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array and was standing at the fire-element position. However, he was still worried that this position would explode suddenly and attack him.

The Golden Dao Law emitted joy when it sensed that Di Jiu had entered the array.

Di Jiu was looking at the Dao fire in surprise. It seemed to be more active than Black Fire, which was surrounded by the fire origin aura. It also seemed to be on the brink of an upgrade.

Di Jiu, who was delighted, felt comfortable checking on the Golden Dao Law.

The Golden Dao Law was covered with a dense layer of engravings of various colors. With each struggle the Golden Dao Law made, these engravings would flare up brightly and tighten further.

There was a broken stone fragment carrying a familiar aura several hundred feet away from the Golden Dao Law.

Di Jiu understood why the Golden Dao Law had been successfully lured into the array the moment his gaze landed on this broken stone fragment. He had possessed such a stone fragment once. It was the Universe Membrane fragment.

Without a doubt, the person who had set up this Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array was extremely familiar with what the Golden Dao Law liked. Di Jiu lamented, as he felt some respect for this person. After all, the items here were all top-notch treasures of the universe.

If this had been any other place, Di Jiu would have taken hold of that broken Universe Membrane fragment immediately. However, he did not dare do such a thing now.

He was currently standing within the Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array. He was qualified to be here only because someone had either taken away the Fire Origin Pearl or the pearl had left on its own accord. Had this Five-Element Dao-Sealing Array been complete, he would not have dared to enter, even if his strength had been 1,000 times greater than his current strength.

The Fire Origin Pearl might have disappeared, but the origin aura at the four other positions remained. He would most likely have the same fate as the Golden Dao Law, which was bound by the multi-colored engravings, if he left that position.

By using his Spiritual Force, he attempted to open the engravings binding the Golden Dao Law. His expression turned ugly the moment his Spiritual Force came into contact with them.

Even if his Array Dao increased to level ten, he would not be able to unlock the engravings, let alone now that he was a mere level-seven Immortal Array Dao practitioner.

“I’m sorry, I’m truly unable to help you,” said Di Jiu helplessly as he looked at the Golden Dao Law. Other than being unable to help the Golden Dao Law, he was also unable to take away any of the treasures around.

The reason was simple: His strength was trash.

The Golden Dao Law sent a message anxiously, stating that it could help Di Jiu improve his Array Dao.

Indeed, following the transmission of this message, the Golden Dao Law exuded its aura. Numerous Foundation Order Dao runes permeated Di Jiu’s intent. Di Jiu’s insight into the Array Dao soared rapidly before he had any chance to speak.

Di Jiu sighed. He had originally wanted to inform the Golden Dao Law that he would not be able to open these Dao engravings of various colors, even if his Array Dao reached the level of a level-nine Immortal Array Emperor.

However, he did not stand on ceremony now that the Golden Dao Law was wholeheartedly helping him upgrade his insight into the Array Dao laws. He might not be capable of saving the Golden Dao Law from its predicament, but he had gone there to help.

For the first time ever, Di Jiu’s understanding of the Array Dao soared drastically. One after another, various array formation hand seals appeared out of the blue on his palm as he gained insight into the different fundamental Array Dao laws.

He was completely immersed in the joy of being in such a state.

Several months passed in the blink of an eye. The Dao fire, which was helping Di Jiu block the fire-element position, suddenly exploded, turning into a 1,000-feet-tall black flame. The small speck of blue flare within the flame had completely disappeared.

Di Jiu remained unaware that his Dao fire, the Luminous Starry Sky, had upgraded and become a level-seven immortal flame. He was utterly immersed and enveloped within that mysterious, esoteric Array Dao law.

Black Fire’s body also started to change and a red sharp horn grew out of the red part of its head. His four limbs grew thicker and his claws turned sharper. His body remained shaped like a ball, but it had grown and become two-feet tall.

Boom! When the number and type of Array Dao laws gathered reached the limit, Di Jiu’s Array Dao immediately soared to attain the standards of a level-eight Array Supremacy.

The aura of the Array Dao Foundation Orders, which was surging into Di Jiu’s Spiritual Sea, disappeared without a trace. Di Jiu was aware that the Golden Dao Law was stopping him from continuing such a meaningless act. It must have reached the realization that he would still be unable to save it even if he became a level-nine Immortal Array Emperor.

However, Di Jiu had a better idea. When he looked behind him and saw the level-seven Dao fire and Black Fire, who had reached level five and grown tremendously in size, he could not believe his eyes. The blue flame floating above Black Fire’s head had also become a level-five immortal flame.

This place was far too nutritious.

Di Jiu instantly came to a realization. He hastily took out the Void Gray Flame and threw it beside the Dao fire. “Don’t consume the Void Gray Flame. Help it upgrade by some levels instead.”

Di Jiu had obtained the Void Gray Flame, a level-four immortal flame, while he had been searching for the Heavenly Fire Spirit in the Sky Screen Pit. This flame was inferior to his Dao fire, but it was still considered an extremely rare treasure in the galaxy. Therefore, to this date, Di Jiu had not been able to bear to let his Dao fire consume it.
