Ninth In the World

Di Jiu watched curiously as Kun Zhi and another Primordial Chaos expert left. Was Fan Yuan not with them?

He quickly realized that there was indeed no guarantee that Kun Zhi and a perfected Primordial Chaos cultivator could detain him.

In that case, Fan Yuan would have to be inside the Shadow Void Castle. Di Jiu had originally intended to wait for all of them to leave before swiftly entering the castle and taking Dao Chuanxun away. However, since Kun Zhi and a perfected Primordial Chaos cultivator left, Fan Yuan had to be waiting for him in the castle with an accomplice.

At that thought, Di Jiu changed his mind. No one could blame him for becoming the predator instead.

Di Jiu started to set up a major array once again, adding four Five-Element Flags into the set-up. This time, he was setting up a Confinement Killing Array and a spatial restriction array.

Based on his understanding of space, no one, not even the Kun Peng Clan’s experts, could transmit any messages outside after a spatial restriction array was set up.

In Di Jiu’s opinion, Kun Zhi from the Kun Peng Clan and his accomplice had headed to the Void City to obtain some information on him. If this was the case, he would eliminate Fan Yuan first before taking the next step.

…

Fan Yuan felt uneasy after Kun Zhi and a perfected Primordial Chaos expert from the Kun Peng Clan left. He was starting to regret scheming against Di Jiu, although he had killed a Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperor of the Demon Clan. However, hadn’t Ye Mo done the exact same thing in the past? What could the Demon Clan possibly have done in retaliation? Di Jiu and Ye Mo had the same personality.

Unfortunately, he could no longer back out.

The second reason his heart sank was because the first thing Kun Wei did after sending out the message was fight with Di Jiu fiercely. Kun Wei should be trying to prevent Di Jiu from escaping instead. However, Kun Wei was trying very hard now. The only explanation was that Kun Wei could not send the message out.

Fan Yuan wanted to escape. Di Jiu had severely injured Kun Wei the moment he’d arrived. Furthermore, Dao Chuanxun, whose stance was unclear, was present and their Confinement Killing Array was not working. It would be difficult to get out of this unscathed, much less kill Di Jiu.

Of course, there was no way Di Jiu would allow Fan Yuan to escape. He threw out several dozens of array flags. When they were combined with the nomological array flags, a level-six Confinement Killing Divine Array was created, trapping Fan Yuan within.

Fan Yuan was alarmed. Their Confinement Killing Array could not work, yet Di Jiu had just used the same array to trap him. Feeling even more desperate, Fan Yuan took out his Dharma treasure with the intention of ripping apart Di Jiu’s Confinement Killing Array and leaving immediately.

Dao Chuanxun, who witnessed all this, took out his Dharma treasure without hesitation and attacked Fan Yuan. He knew what he was supposed to do at this crucial juncture.

The only person who did nothing was Lou Hun, who was continuously retreating as though he wanted to escape.

Clang! Kun Wei’s Sawtooth Gong and Di Jiu’s Heavenly Aqua Saber clashed once again. The space shook violently from the impact. Kun Wei, who sensed waves of Divine Essence oppression, felt despondent. He knew that he could barely face Di Jiu even if he had not been injured. Given that he was currently injured, there was no way he could hold his own against Di Jiu.

He had to leave! Otherwise, he would die there today.

When he understood that, Kun Wei’s space domain suddenly expanded. The Sawtooth Gong transformed into an illusion that was several hundred feet wide and almost completely covered up a part of the Shadow Void Castle.

Then, Kun Wei’s figure became faint.

Di Jiu knew the escape techniques Kun Wei used, since the latter was an expert of the Kun Peng Clan. His Alleviating Dharma Array could lock onto Kun Wei but was incapable of preventing him from escaping.

However, Di Jiu had already made the decision to not let Kun Wei escape. He immediately took out the Yin-Yang Taijitu.

The Yin-Yang Taijitu instantly transformed into a huge Yin-Yang symbol. Everyone’s domain, including Di Jiu’s domain, became sluggish at the appearance of this symbol.

The figure of Kun Wei, which had started to turn blurry, became solid once again.
