Ninth In the World

Even though Di Jiu was immersed in perfecting the Dao runes and frantically raising his Divine Essence, he knew that he was half a step into the Primordial Dao Realm. As long as he kept going like this, he would definitely become a true second-step Dao Validation expert.

As Di Jiu was frantically performing the Nomological Qi Circulation and sweeping the Chaos Qi and Divine Spirit Qi to condense his Dao runes, a feeling of extreme weakness appeared. At that moment, Di Jiu could sense his cultivation rapidly dropping. Even his life-force and lifespan were rapidly dissipating.

Di Jiu was really shocked. He cultivated the Nomological Dao and knew a thing or two even though he had not truly joined any sects. It seemed like the Colossal Degeneration was only a rumor based on what he knew. Who had ever heard of the Colossal Degeneration after reaching the Primordial Dao Realm?

Crack! Di Jiu felt his Starry Sky meridian and his Spiritual Sea, which he frantically extended, start to crack.

It was like a delicate sprout was coming out of the soil. He was on the verge of collapsing in this dangerous situation, so he could be destroyed by it at any time.

As Di Jiu felt terrified and did not know what to do, a new life-force abruptly appeared. Then, it started moisturizing his Spiritual Sea and Starry Sky meridian, which had cracked.

The delicate sprout grew increasingly firm and matured sturdily at maximum speed. At the same time, it frantically absorbed all the surrounding nutrients…

His cracked Starry Sky meridian and Spiritual Sea started to be restored. Once again, Di Jiu’s cultivation rose frantically and the Dao runes were perfected.

Boom! As if thunder had rumbled in Di Jiu’s mind, he suddenly opened his eyes and stood up.

He extended his powerful, vast domain aura. At that moment, the entire void seemed to be under his control. Even though he knew this was a pretentious feeling, he was still excited.

Di Jiu was indignant. While the Ninth Dao Law still had an intent, it’d wanted him to make a move. In the end, the Sacred Yin Pearl had saved him. However, the Ninth Dao Law had plotted against the Sacred Yin Pearl, making it immediately shatter. It had then ended up forming a new world with his Dao law, which was his Ninth World.

Di Jiu had previously thought that the Ninth Dao Law’s hint of obsession had vanished. He had not expected that it would still be present. When he reached the second step, an entirely different kind of willpower appeared that wanted to destroy him completely.

He was lucky he had planted the Creation Wood. When he reached the second step this time, the Ninth World evolved and the Creation Wood germinated, hence saving him once more.

Di Jiu opened his palm and a Dao fire appeared. He had to burn away this hint of obsessed willpower.

As he was about to make a move, he hesitated.

This hint of obsessed willpower came evidently from the Ninth Dao Law. It definitely was not against Di Jiu but against the Master of the Universe. He simply did not care what the Ninth Dao Law thought and had set up his own Dao with all his strength. As a result, the Ninth Dao Law had left this hint of obsessed willpower behind, wanting to get rid of Di Jiu before continuing to deal with the Master of the Universe.

In that case, why hadn’t it left behind this hint of obsession for the Master of the Universe?

Di Jiu no longer hesitated. He bound this hint of obsession with restrictions, sealing it in the corner of the Ninth World. Perhaps someday, he might be able to use it.

…

When Di Jiu came out of the Ninth World, he saw an excited Ding Chi. Di Jiu knew that Ding Chi had gone through his Dao Transformation successfully.

“Brother Ding, congratulations on the Dao Transformation.” Di Jiu patted Ding Chi and congratulated him.

Ding Chi replied excitedly, “Brother Di, without you, I don’t know when I would have reached the Dao Transformation. Even if I had succeeded, I wouldn’t have made my current achievements.”

Ding Chi knew this better than anyone. He had reached the Dao Transformation by following Di Jiu and experiencing the purification of the hint of Chaos aura. At the moment, his Dao foundation was much deeper than it had been in the past.

He did not need to ask Di Jiu to know that Di Jiu had certainly reached the second step. He had sensed that kind of vast Heaven Earth Dao aura previously.

“Not bad. Lightning also became a level-three divine beast. We can go to the Void City.” When Di Jiu saw Lightning rush out proudly, he felt very satisfied.

Little Tree could not compare to Lightning’s cultivation speed. Even Black Fire might not necessarily advance faster than Lightning. If he did not accelerate, Lightning might very likely surpass him in the future.

He had consumed a big part of the three supreme-grade Dao meridians. Even if he used them all up, it would be worth it as long as he reached the second step. Di Jiu put away the three Dao meridians that were yet to be fully used up. He then drew out the high-grade flying boat and rushed toward the Void City once again.
