Ninth In the World

Di Jiu stopped the flying boat and looked at the vast void before him in shock. He had experienced many voids and seen too many amazing sceneries in the universe.

 However, it was the first time he saw the vast scenery with the majestic grandeur before his eyes.

 An ocean whose edge the Spiritual Force could not touch had abruptly appeared in the void before him. If the ocean waves were not crashing, Di Jiu would have suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes and Spiritual Force.

 Apart from the coastline on his side, the other parts of this vast ocean were boundless.

 The coastline on his side floated in the void, looking extremely lofty.

 The ocean waves were sometimes very strong, but they could not slap the void. There seemed to be a virtual force in between the void and the ocean that stopped them. At first, Di Jiu thought there were Dharma Arrays. After he had taken a look carefully, he realized that there were no Dharma Arrays here.

 Without any hesitation, Di Jiu controlled the flying boat and rushed into the Void Ocean. This time, he did not allow Lightning to enter the Ninth World. Lightning was considered a level-one divine beast now. Although its level was still rather low, it was enough even if it helped him do some simple things.

 Once he entered the Void Ocean, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force scanned an extremely grand divine city that towered above the Void Ocean with majestic grandeur.

 Di Jiu’s flying boat went in. Before he could reach this divine city, he saw a wide starry jade road leading to the void outside the divine city. At the end of this road, there was a square that extended for tens of thousands of feet.

 Di Jiu nodded and approached Ding Chi. He then said with a smile, “It looks like you haven’t been living as well as I am. Why? Are these two fellows Jiang Dai’s lackeys?”

 Even though he had not seen Ding Chi’s arrest warrant, Di Jiu subconsciously believed that Ding Chi had been caught by Jiang Dai’s people.

 “Punk, you’re very arrogant,” a Dao Transformation cultivator guarding Jiang Dai said sarcastically when he heard Di Jiu.

 He did not know who Jiang Dai was. However, Di Jiu was simply too arrogant. He had dared to use his saber to tear the arrest warrant and had even said that the two of them, who were Dao Transformation experts, were Jiang Dai’s lackeys.

 The first impression was always the strongest. Di Jiu, who believed that these two Dao Transformation experts were Jiang Dai’s people, lifted his hand and slapped one of them without hesitation. “I am arrogant. I will cripple your meridians today. Call Jiang Dai over. Tell him the person who is going to destroy his nest is here. I will meet him at the Dark Red Sacred Dao City gate. Even if I destroy his nest, what can he do to me?”

 Everyone knew that when Di Jiu slapped him, the Dao Transformation cultivator had no way of avoiding it. He could only feel his surroundings being restricted by a boundless law. This should be his domain, which was simply too strong.

 Slap! Di Jiu slapped this Dao Transformation cultivator and sent him flying before he landed on the edge of the city wall. He opened his mouth and spat out a blood arrow, looking very pale.

 The other Dao Transformation cultivator who was guarding Ding Chi stepped aside in horror. Ding Chi then completely freed himself from his restraints.

 “Second-step…” The Dao Transformation cultivator who had been sent flying by Di Jiu’s slap looked at him with a pale face. Di Jiu looked harmless, and there was no distinct aura all over him. How could he be a second-step expert? With just one slap, he had been unable to resist and some of his meridians had been destroyed.

 “Get lost. Call Jiang Dai. I won’t wait long!” Di Jiu shouted angrily.

 The two Dao Transformation cultivators did not hesitate. They hurriedly rushed into the Dark Red Sacred Dao City.

 Di Jiu naturally did not dare enter the Dark Red Sacred Dao City. Even though he was now at the early-stage Dao Transformation, he wanted to compare himself with Jiang Dai and see how far he was. He was sure that, given his current strength, Jiang Dai most likely would not catch up to him. Di Jiu was the strongest based on his escape technique, and not his cultivation level. Moreover, he had seen Jiang Dai’s speed. He was very fast, but ever since Di Jiu had attained the Dao Transformation, he was much faster than before.

 In the vast void, he did not believe that his nomological escape technique was not as good as Jiang Dai’s.

 However, once he entered the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, Di Jiu was not sure that he could evade Jiang Dai.

 “Brother Di, you’re already at the second step?” Ding Chi looked at Di Jiu in shock. He had thought that since Di Jiu had entered the Dao Ridge, his cultivation level should be similar to his.

 Di Jiu had managed to reach the second step in just a short time? How had he been living all these years?
