Chapter 588 - Di Jiu’s Capabilities
Outside the Great Age Elixir River, the area was filled with seated elders, deacons representing the various major sects, and a standing crowd of spectating cultivators.
They were currently unable to see how the participating alchemists condensed the Divine Essence Pill. The two gigantic array formation screens showed the ranking, however.
The first array formation screen showed the sect’s ranking, while the second showed the ranking of the participating alchemists.
For this Dao World Great Age Elixir River Competition, every sect had sent three alchemists. There was virtually no other sect like the First Evolution Dao Sect, which had sent a mediocre alchemist to participate in the competition.
This was because this competition would affect the sect’s reputation and the cultivating resources allocated to the sect.
A portion of the Divine Essence Pills condensed by the participating alchemist would be given to the sect they represented. Therefore, the greater the amount of Divine Essence Pills condensed, the greater the profit gained by the participating sect.
Something had gone wrong internally in the First Evolution Dao Sect, which was why this situation had occurred. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for such a situation to occur.
The array formation screen indicating the sect’s ranking stated very clearly that the Divine Rich Elixir Sect was first with 2,820 points, the Vast Pure Sacred Sect was second with 2,432 points, and the Green Glazed Dao Sect was third with 2,428 points…
The ranking of the participating alchemists was clearly indicated as well. In first place was Yu Hu from the Divine Rich Elixir Sect with 1,811 points, and second was Ju He from the Eternal Court Sacred Dao City with 1,400 points…
Left with no options, Di Jiu set up a nomological major array that circulated in the opposite direction. There was only one purpose behind this major array: to weaken the whirlpool. However, the Elixir Qi was drawn into the cauldron unaffected.
Only a cultivator like him, who could use the Heaven Earth Law to set up a major array, would dare to do something like this. Otherwise, throwing out a single array flag would expose everything.
After setting up the second nomological major array by using his Spiritual Force, Di Jiu observed the alchemy whirlpool of the surrounding alchemists. Then, he weakened his whirlpool to make it weaker than theirs.
When 10,000 Divine Essence Pills quickly entered the Ninth World, he started to assign the Divine Essence Pills. He had not come here to gain any prizes. Since he had encountered the Divine Essence Pills, however, he would make a fortune.
With every 100 Divine Essence Pills condensed, he sent one into the ring and the rest were sent to the Ninth World.
The number was not randomly decided by Di Jiu. Instead, it was based on a conclusion derived from the Elixir Qi whirlpool of the surrounding cultivators. He should not produce more than others but certainly not less than them.
Di Jiu could make his nomological major array slightly larger but believed that one should be low-key. It would be great to earn a fortune. Nonetheless, one should not be too greedy.
With the aid of the nomological major array, the Gigantic Cosmic Cauldron started to automatically condense Divine Essence Pills. Di Jiu did not need to do anything at all.
Thus, he chose to use the remaining time he had to cultivate. Where else could he go if he did not cultivate here?
As Di Jiu absorbed the dense, pure Heaven Earth Elixir Qi, his cultivation level upgraded swiftly and his Divine Essence became more powerful.
He was soon submerged into deep seclusion. The insight he gained was very clear as he cultivated in this dense Elixir Qi.
Upon entering seclusion, he was unaware of what was happening in the outside world but his points were actually increasing exponentially.
He had tried his best to remain low-key and had even set up a tightly-controlled nomological major array. However, it was important to note that he was using a nomological major array so this would be different from the process of the average alchemist condensing the Divine Essence Pill. Every alchemist, no matter how formidable they were, would need to rest during this process. They could utilize the Heaven Earth Elixir Qi there to recover their Essence Energy before continuing to condense the pill.
On the other hand, the major array Di Jiu set up did not need to rest. With sufficient Heaven Earth Elixir Qi, top-notch Divine Essence Pills would be continuously churned out.
…
“Something is amiss. The First Evolution Dao Sect has actually just risen to the top 100…”
Finally, someone in the crowd discovered that something was amiss. Other than the rise of the rank of the First Evolution Dao Sect, the ranking of the participating disciple rose at a frightening speed as well. Among the 2,000 participants, he had entered the top 50 and was currently 50th.
“Something is wrong. Every increase of his points is very uniform, as though the amount produced every minute is fixed…” The moment everyone focused their attention on Di Jiu’s rank, the strange increase of his Divine Essence Pill production was revealed.
When Di Jiu finally opened his eyes, he had attained the perfected Dao Modeling and improving any further was impossible to accomplish through seclusion.
His Spiritual Force entered the Ninth World. Shocked, he discovered that there were at least 100,000,000 Divine Essence Pills inside.
This accumulation showed that the amount of Divine Essence Pills thrown inside the ring by the nomological major array had reached at least 1,000,000.
Oh no. Di Jiu discovered the problem immediately. He had overlooked how frightening the nomological major array was. The major array was condensing the Divine Essence Pill at every moment. About 100,000 Divine Essence Pills were fine, but when the number exceeded 1,000,000, someone was bound to realize that something was wrong.
After realizing this, Di Jiu broke out in cold sweat.
