Chapter 873 - Entering the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone
Di Jiu could sense it once the last layer of the Great Ultimate Realm’s Defense Array was sealed up. He was sure that something had happened to the Great Ultimate Realm, but whatever had happened, things would be fine as long as the Great Ultimate Realm was sealed. The Great Ultimate Realm had been sealed up by the chains of four of his Five-Element Flags. Even if a few third-step experts came over, they could only dream about opening it easily. When the Great Ultimate Realm’s Defense Array was nearly broken, he should have returned from the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone.
Di Jiu hurried back to the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone in a short time.
Although Dao Lord Po Xu and Lightning were not present, the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone was still bustling.
“Brother Di, you’re finally back.” When Di Jiu returned, Jing Xihua was the first to welcome him. In fact, since Lightning had been captured and Dao Lord Po Xu had entered the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone, Jing Xihua had been the only one helping with the Mountain Gaze Restaurant. After Jing Xihua had recovered from his injuries, he had not been a weakling anymore. Thus, he could provide sufficient help there.
Di Jiu patted Jing Xihua’s shoulder. “Thank you for your help. I’m going to the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone to look for Lightning. While I’m not around, help me look after the Mountain Gaze Restaurant. Thank you.”
After he finished saying that, before Jing Xihua could answer, Di Jiu rushed into the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone with a flash of his figure.
Jing Xihua opened his mouth but could only sigh, looking somewhat helpless.
If Di Jiu had been willing to speak to him, he was sure he could have persuaded Di Jiu not to go into the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone. Even if he wanted to go in, now was not the time for that.
In Jing Xihua’s opinion, Dao Lord Po Xu should not be weaker than Di Jiu. However, it had been almost two years since Dao Lord Po had entered the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone and there had been no news of him. Without needing to think, he knew that Dao Lord Po Xu’s chances were grim. In other words, even if Dao Lord Po Xu was fine, he was still trapped in the Mountain Gaze Forbidden Zone, unable to come out. If even Dao Lord Po Xu was trapped, it would be strange if Di Jiu was fine after entering that place.
Even though remnant souls used to be exceptional experts, they did not dare be rash when facing an expert like Di Jiu.
“A few acquaintances of mine came in. Wait for me to sketch a void portrait for you to see. Oh, that’s right. There’s also a bird with a lightning bolt on its head. Have you seen it?” While Di Jiu said that, he drew Dao Lord Po Xu, Weng Xing, and Lightning.
Di Jiu’s actions shocked the remnant soul. Even though the experts of the Creation War could be in a place with chaotic and shattered law, not many of them could casually sketch out void portraits.
“Senior, I’m only left with a soul that was restored with the help of the Creation Qi. I wouldn’t dare go far away from here, so I really haven’t seen the people you mentioned.” Even though the remnant soul knew that he was much older than Di Jiu, he did not dare address him as Daoist Di Jiu. Thus, he could only address him as Senior Di Jiu.
Di Jiu gestured with his hand. When he was about to continue looking for a second remnant soul to ask questions, a weak voice was heard. “Daoist, I’ve seen one of them.”
Di Jiu’s gaze immediately fell on a weak soul next to him. It was a woman whose soul was poorly restored. Therefore, this soul did not seem as good as some shadows in the Land of Seven Chakras.
“Who have you seen?” Di Jiu asked in amazement, as he had yet to see even one of them.
The woman’s shadow seemed to become weaker again. Without hesitation, Di Jiu took out several Dao pills and crushed them before he took out a few drops of First Evolution True Dew to sprinkle the shadow.
The shadow instantly became solid and even took an embryonic form.
Overjoyed, the shadow said excitedly, “Thank you, Daoist. My name is Chu Manhe. If I am able to recover my physical body in the future, I will definitely repay the favor you did me today.”
Di Jiu gestured with his hand and said, “This is nothing. It is something that is within my power. Tell me who you saw.”
