Chapter 854 - The Mountain Gaze Restaurant
Weng Xing was extremely fast, seemingly crossing thousands of kilometers in the blink of an eye. However, he froze after using the escape technique divine power for the first time because his Spiritual Force had seen Di Jiu, who was ahead of him.
This kind of escape technique couldn’t be called an escape technique. It could instead be considered void teleportation.
Without thinking, Weng Xing activated the escape talisman on his wrist. A moment later, he disappeared again. He was sure that as long as he hesitated, he would be done for.
Before Di Jiu could lock down Weng Xing, he knew that Weng Xing had escaped. However, even though Weng Xing had used the escape talisman, he could not escape from his nomological escape technique.
Weng Xing’s escape talisman was indeed formidable. Di Jiu even suspected that if this escape talisman was a bit further away, he would not be able to sense the saber scar imprint of the Heavenly Aqua Saber.
Di Jiu put the nomological escape technique to full use. Even though he could sense his saber scar imprint a little clearer each time, he still sensed that the distance was too long.
At that moment, Weng Xing stopped, as he had only one escape talisman. Di Jiu’s escape technique terrified him. He had never seen such a terrifying escape technique. If he hadn’t used the escape talisman, regardless of how far he managed to escape, Di Jiu gave him the feeling that his escape technique would still land in front of him easily.
Despite wasting one escape talisman, Weng Xing did not regret it. Not only was Di Jiu’s escape technique terrifying, but he also had the power to kill him. If he wanted to crush Di Jiu, he would have to reach the third step.
Before he reached the third step, he needed to remove Di Jiu’s saber aura Dao runes from his wound. Otherwise, even if he had 100 escape talismans, he was afraid he would not be able to escape from Di Jiu.
Weng Xing raised his hand to set up hundreds of array flags. After setting up a simple Defense Array, he immediately started to refine the Dao rune traces of the saber aura on his wound.
Now that he had obtained a Two-Realm Fruit, he did not dare use it as he wished. If someone disturbed him while he was saving Xiuqi, it would not help even if he killed that person.
Di Jiu carefully placed the Two-Realm Fruit in Xiuqi’s mouth before it turned into an endless light Dao rune aura that nourished Nong Xiuqi’s broken soul and body.
Di Jiu stared nervously at Nong Xiuqi and soon got excited. He could clearly sense that Nong Xiuqi’s soul was condensing and growing. Although this growth was slow, there was no stagnation.
When the Dao rune aura of the Two-Realm Fruit did not disperse, Di Jiu was somewhat glad that he had obtained the Two-Realm Fruit. The Two-Realm Flower might not necessarily have saved Xiuqi.
Di Jiu reckoned that it should take a very long time for Xiuqi to recover. If it had not been too urgent, he would rather have watched her recover there.
However, Di Jiu knew he did not have the time now. Xiuqi was in the Ninth World. As long as Di Jiu was alive, she would be fine.
After leaving the Ninth World, Di Jiu immediately took out the Heaven-Opening Writing Brush he had stripped off all its chaotic Dao runes. Right now, he just had to continue refining it.
As time went by, Di Jiu was refining the Heaven-Opening Writing Brush in the cave abode, Xiuqi was restoring her soul in the Ninth World, and Lightning was guarding the Mountain Gaze Restaurant.
In the beginning, Lightning still felt very fresh. However, a month later, it was bored.
There was nobody there whatsoever. Previously, he had been prepared to take out the Starry Sky Tea and top-notch Dao wine. However, since there were no guests, why would he need those things?
One day, Lightning, who was bored to death, was sitting by the entrance. It looked as dejected as though it was awaiting its death. Then, a husky voice suddenly woke it up. “May I ask if you’re the boss here?”
