: Kicking the Immortal Emperor’s Domain Away

The fruit landed on Di Jiu’s open palm the moment his hand came into contact with it. Di Jiu was astonished when the tree wilted as soon as the fruit dropped from its branch, transforming into numerous Dao engravings and disappearing into the fruit.

He did not know what had happened, but he knew that this was an extremely extraordinary fruit.

“Leave it here!” A violent aura engulfed him the instant Di Jiu placed the fruit into a jade box and cast a restriction on the box.

He threw the box into his ring and slashed down with the Heavenly Aqua Saber in his hand without thinking.

He was certain that he was not this person’s match. There were at least 100 miles between the two of them, yet only the oppression of the Domain was sufficient to suffocate him.

Boom! The Heavenly Aqua Saber collided with the opponent’s Domain, creating a violent wave of Immortal Essence aura. Di Jiu spat out a mouthful of blood as he was sent flying backwards.

He was relieved, however, for he now had the space to execute the Spiritual Force escape technique.

Almost immediately after Di Jiu cast the Spiritual Force escape technique, a giant hand seal grabbed hold of Di Jiu’s shadow and destroyed it.

A man wearing a yellow robe landed on the ground, lunging at Di Jiu once again after briefly using his Spiritual Force to scan the area where the ancient tree had just disappeared.

Dui Pingchuan refused to believe that he was unable to catch a mere early-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal after he had just attained the late-stage Immortal Supremacy Realm.

He knew that Di Jiu, who was listed as a wanted man everywhere, was the person who had just escaped. Naturally, he coveted the treasures in Di Jiu’s possession and desired the fruit Di Jiu had seized the most. It was a fruit he did not recognize. However, based on the aura of nomological Dao runes he sensed coming from it, it would most likely be a Dao fruit that existed in legends.

He had gained a lot of knowledge and also knew more than the ordinary cultivator, as he was the hall master of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City’s Law Enforcement Hall.

An Immortal King could lord over anywhere.

However, a Dao fruit was required for an Immortal Emperor to become a true Dao cultivator. It contained top-notch Heaven Earth Laws which could enable the Dao cultivator to sense the paramount Heaven Earth Dao runes. According to a well-known rumor, Ye Xi from the Illusionary Rainbow Immortal Continent had attained that height by obtaining a Dao fruit.

However, there was no evidence supporting these claims, so no one could determine the validity of this rumor. Furthermore, no one would be foolish enough to fight with an expert like Ye Xi.

Still, when he actually saw the Dao fruit today, he was certain that this was exactly what Di Jiu had seized.

Di Jiu spat out a mouthful of blood and rushed out of the natural restriction. He sensed with his Spiritual Force Dui Pingchuan, who was hot on his heels. Di Jiu recognized Dui Pingchuan and discovered his identity, as well as the fact that he was not a good person.

The possibility of Dui Pingchuan catching him was quite low if he put his mind into escaping, as he possessed early-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal strength and level-six Immortal Force.

Upon confirming that Dui Pingchuan was still pursuing him, Di Jiu had decided to circle around the Lunar Forsaken Tomb once. He would then head to the Chaotic Law Zone after shaking Dui Pingchuan off his trail.

A glimpse of a human shadow appeared at the border of his Spiritual Force range before he could manage to retract his Spiritual Force.

This person was swiftly approaching him at a speed significantly faster than Dui Pingchuan’s.

It was definitely a late-stage Immortal Emperor expert. Di Jiu dared not proceed with toying with Dui Pingchuan, choosing to sprint into the Chaotic Law Zone instead.

He did not know where else he could escape to, other than the Chaotic Law Zone, when facing a late-stage Immortal Emperor expert.

Dui Pingchuan stopped in his pursuit and sighed, well-aware that he had lost the opportunity to obtain the Dao fruit. When a giant hand seal grabbed at Di Jiu, Dui Pingchuan was certain that the former would no longer be able to escape.

He recognized the owner of the giant hand seal as Xiling Yuanyi, the Sect Master of the Buzhou Immortal Sect. This matter was off his hands now that an expert like Xiling Yuanyi had arrived.

Di Jiu’s speed slowed down, even though he had escaped in space. A humongous hand seal made from Immortal Essence grabbed at him, carrying with it Immortal Essence fluctuations so frightening that they would make any cultivator who possessed a cultivation at or below the Immortal Supremacy Realm fall into despair.

Di Jiu felt as though he was trapped within a huge swamp that made it difficult for him to even turn his body.

He became even calmer as he sensed death approaching. After experiencing so many close encounters with death over the years, he knew that panicking would be useless. He only needed a few more seconds in order to enter the Chaotic Law Zone. However, he was aware that the opponent would not give him this time and that he would have to fight for the extra seconds himself.

Frantic, he burned his Blood Essence before slowly kicking his leg out as he turned his body with difficulty. This kick was the only thing he could use against an Immortal Emperor.

The kick was extremely slow at the very start. However, after some spatial cracks appeared as a result of the kick, the surrounding swamp-like bindings seemed to loosen.

Di Jiu was ecstatic as he thrust almost all the Immortal Essence he possessed into this Jumbo Footprint.

Boom! The bones of his leg broke into numerous fragments, but Di Jiu was able to finally free himself from the swamp-like bindings. Then, as his figure transformed into a shadow, he dashed towards the Chaotic Law Zone, which was a stone’s throw away.

“Spatial law...” A man in a scholar’s attire landed where Di Jiu had executed the kick as soon as Di Jiu left. He stared stupefied at the Chaotic Law Zone that had swallowed Di Jiu whole.

Di Jiu’s kick had not affected him, yet a crack had formed in his Immortal Emperor Domain. This had caused the oppression he was exuding to lessen, thus creating a window of opportunity for Di Jiu to rush into the Chaotic Law Zone.

His guess was right after all. It was indeed Di Jiu who had eradicated the New Moon Commercial Building. Even a pig would not believe that this weakling did not hide any secrets. The truth was that a weakling who was a long distance away from attaining the Immortal King Realm understood the basics of spatial laws and had also been able to kick open his hastily-created Domain.

“Dui Pingchuan greets Immortal Emperor Yuanyi.” Dui Pingchuan stepped forward as well, bowing respectfully upon landing on the ground.

Xiling Yuanyi stared at the Chaotic Law Zone. It was not a place he would dare to enter, even if he was an Immortal Emperor. A long moment passed before he turned to Dui Pingchuan, who was still bowing, and asked, “Are you the one who chased him to this spot?”

Dui Pingchuan replied respectfully, “Yes, it is a coincidence that I encountered Di Jiu in the Lunar Forsaken Tomb. I did not expect that he would possess such a formidable escape technique. Otherwise, I would have already captured him.”

Dui Pingchuan knew what was at stake very well. It would not be beneficial for him to say that Di Jiu had obtained a Dao fruit. Hence, he did not say anything about that matter.

He was the only one who had seen Di Jiu obtain the Dao fruit. Therefore, there was a possibility that Xiling Yuanyi would kill him and search his storage ring, even if he did not gain possession of the Dao fruit. The Dao fruit was, after all, something that would make even an Immortal Emperor go mad.

Xiling Yuanyi nodded his head. “The chicken has come home to roost. Assign someone to stand guard here to prevent that person from escaping again. Inform me immediately when there is any news.”

“Yes,” Dui Pingchuan agreed hastily.

Even an Immortal Emperor would die, or at least be half-dead, should they enter the Chaotic Law Zone, much less a Zenith Heaven Immortal.

The reason Xiling Yuanyi asked Dui Pingchuan to assign a guard was because it was said that Ye Xi had entered the Chaotic Law Zone when he had yet to attain the Immortal King Realm. This was only a precautionary measure, for he knew that Di Jiu would definitely not be leaving the Chaotic Law Zone.

...

Di Jiu immediately sensed the frightening chaotic law aura the instant he entered the Chaotic Law Zone. These chaotic laws seemed to be on the verge of pulverizing him.

Various nomological auras were meshed together, including metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice, space, time, and even some dark nomological aura...

They were weak, strong, displaced, overlapping...

The Ninth Dao Law was in Di Jiu’s possession, which meant that his understanding of the Heaven Earth Laws surpassed that of cultivators in the same cultivation realm. However, when he landed in this space, he also became confounded by the violent, chaotic laws there. This should only be the outermost region of the Chaotic Law Zone. If he was to head further in...

Di Jiu stopped that train of thought. He hastily used his Spiritual Force to communicate with the Ninth Dao Law and frantically scanned the area. He needed to find a livable space for himself in the shortest time possible. Entering the Quintessential World was not a thought he entertained, for the Quintessential World would disintegrate as a result of him entering the world, given how chaotic the laws here were.

While he repeatedly spat out mouthfuls of blood, his Spiritual Force was continuously razed by the various anarchic laws, as his Spiritual Force was used to scan the region.

Blood shot out of one of his legs as it was cut off by a displaced law.

Fortunately, Di Jiu then found a place where the law chaos was weaker. He snatched up his broken limb and rushed over.

Next, he attached the two parts of the broken leg together by using his fastest speed upon landing on the discovered spot. Frantic, he circulated the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art.

The swift reattachment of flesh and bones cut by the chaotic laws using the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art was followed by a wave of violent energy that was exuded from Di Jiu’s bones. A continuous cracking sound could be heard.

Boom! Di Jiu sensed that his body leveled up and officially became the early-stage Immortal Divine Body.
