Chapter 627: Di Jiu’s Techniques
Di Jiu became very excited. He did not care about what had happened between the Vast Pure Sacred Sect and Jiang Dai. What mattered to him was that Jiang Dai was not in his nest, and Di Jiu could collect some interest.
He had lost interest in hanging out with the cultivators. After leaving the inn, he immediately purchased an introduction jade slip on the Void Ocean.
It was only then, after reading the introduction, that he realized that it would not be an easy feat to head to the Void Ocean.
Di Jiu did not know whether the Void Ocean was in the Dao World or not, for the introduction jade slip did not say anything about it. There were two roads leading to the Void Ocean. The first was through the Teleportation Array owned by the Dao World’s Five Major Sects, which would allow one to be teleported to the entrance of the Dao World’s plane Defense Array so they could leave the Dao World by taking a merchant boat or joining a team. The Teleportation Array would not teleport one directly to the Void Ocean.
The second road was through the Search Lake. Di Jiu had heard of this lake even before he’d read this jade slip. It might be called a lake, but it was quite big.
Several oceans in the Dao World combined would still fail to fill the Search Lake. The largest place occupying the land of the Dao World was the Search Lake, not the land or the oceans. The name ‘Search Lake’ originated from the fact that one could do nothing but search for a way out once they entered the Search Lake.
Because there was lake water everywhere, there was no way of knowing which way led to land and which way led out.
Upon entering the Search Lake, most people would get lost. Over the years, numerous experts from the Dao World had entered the Search Lake and less than one percent had come out of it alive.
The Search Lake was also known as the Lost Lake, which meant the same thing: Once one entered, they were forever lost inside.
If one managed to successfully cross the Search Lake, they could see the broken site of the Dao World’s Defense Array. It was said that one could leave the Dao World and head to the Void Ocean from there.
As a precautionary measure, Di Jiu set up a Teleportation Array millions of miles away from the Dai He Hall. This Teleportation Array could be activated using the teleportation talisman. He could not refine top-notch escape talismans, so he could only rely on the Teleportation Array to escape the range of the Dai He Hall.
After setting up the Teleportation Array, Di Jiu surveyed the geography surrounding the Dai He Hall and closely examined the Dai He Hall’s Defense Array. He decided to use the Five-Element Flags to set up a peak level-six explosive array core before setting up a number of explosive arrays to create an explosive chain.
He possessed many quality items so he was not worried that he would run out of materials to make high-level explosive arrays.
The Defense Array of the Dai He Hall was a level-five Divine Array. It was something Di Jiu would be able to make himself if given enough time. Therefore, by using one White Cloud Bound Flag, he entered the Dai He Hall’s Defense Array easily.
Di Jiu felt even more envious of how wealthy Jiang Dai was when he saw what lay within the Defense Array. Level-four divine spirit objects called Condensed Essence Divine Trees were planted everywhere around the Dai He Hall. The entire square of the Dai He Hall was made out of a level-three divine material called Blue Astral Jade. Di Jiu even spotted two Dao fruit trees outside the Dai He Hall.
He wanted to uproot these two Dao fruit trees, but he was worried he might alarm the cultivators inside the Dai He Hall. Therefore, he completely gave up on the notion of obtaining the Dao fruit trees. There was no way people would not know if he dug these trees out.
Within the Dai He Hall’s Defense Array, Di Jiu spent one full day setting up a peak level-six explosive array core. He then planted the four Five-Element Flags underneath the explosive array core. The Five-Element Flags were a Connate treasure, so he was not worried that the array flags would be shredded by the explosive array. If that happened, then the Five-Element Flags would not be so valuable.
After setting up the explosive array core, he set up an explosive array at the Dai He Hall’s Defense Array foundation.
The greatest benefit of the Nomological Dao was that it allowed one to merge with the Heaven Earth Laws. Despite everything, no one in the Dai He Hall realized what Di Jiu had done.
Evidently, Jiang Dai had not left the command of the array to any of his subordinates, perhaps because he did not want anyone else to have control over the Defense Array where he stayed. Otherwise, even with the Nomological Dao, it would not have been possible for Di Jiu to evade the cultivators within the Dai He Hall.
The explosive arrays set up within the Dai He Hall were only appetizers. After leaving the Dai He Hall, Di Jiu started to frantically carve various nomological array flags in the space around the hall. Additionally, he kept scattering physical array flags at the same time. His only aim was to level the Dai He Hall.
Di Jiu set up more than 100 level-four explosive arrays over two consecutive days. He would have continued doing so for one more day, but the worry that Jiang Dai would suddenly return stopped him from doing so.
What he had now was sufficient, however. The explosive arrays, which amounted to more than 100, would form a huge chain. Once activated, the chain would trigger the level-six Divine Array at its array core. Di Jiu was curious to know what the end result would be if something like this blew up.
