Ninth In the World

When Di Jiu and the other two rushed out, they saw cultivators constantly fleeing out of the Honeycomb before they landed outside the Honeycomb Peak in distress.

 The cultivator in red also rushed out not far away from Di Jiu.

 “Brother Wei, the Honeycomb Cave that the three of them came out of does not seem to be the one we have visited,” a cultivator beside Wei Hongyi whispered to him.

 Even though Wei Hongyi nodded his head, he did not say a word. He had also discovered that. When Di Jiu and the other two had entered the Honeycomb Cave, he had scanned the three of them with his Spiritual Force. Thus, he knew very well which Honeycomb Cave they had entered.

 The Honeycomb Cave that the three of them had come out of was indeed not the one they had entered. The only possibility was they had come out of the original cave and chosen another one.

 One could spend at least half a month and only find one-third of the herbs in this Honeycomb Cave. This was because the Stacked Partition Herbs were very scattered and many of them were one with the surrounding rocks. Hence, it was very hard to discover them.

 As the cultivators constantly rushed out of the Honeycomb Cave, the somewhat furious cave seemed to have calmed down.

 Besides the two people by Di Jiu’s side and the dozens of people by Wei Hongyi’s side, dozens of cultivators Di Jiu did not recognize had come out. It was obvious that these people had either entered before or after them.

“What’s going on?” someone in the crowd asked.

 “Friends, hold on.” Di Jiu had not expected that even though Ji Mi had not been able to stop so many cultivators from leaving, he would stop the three of them.

 “What’s wrong?” Di Jiu sounded cold and the aura on him immediately swept toward Ji Mi.

 Ji Mi was only at the mid-stage Dao Modeling. Even if Di Jiu did not make a move, he believed that Zhuo Wujia could get rid of this fellow. He then understood why Ji Mi had approached the three of them. Since they were new faces and their auras were extremely unfamiliar, Ji Mi had guessed that they were newcomers.

 Wei Hongyi, who had been about to step forward, suddenly stopped. Since Ji Mi wanted Di Jiu’s First Evolution True Dew, he wanted to see how Di Jiu was going to set up the Confinement Killing Array.

 “I’ve said so earlier. If you are willing to sell some First Evolution True Dew to me, I assure you that you’ll get a discount when you purchase anything,” Ji Mi said with a laugh. Not only was he ignoring Di Jiu’s domain aura, but he also swept over with his own domain aura instead.

 He believed that Di Jiu and the other two had teamed up at the last moment. Zhuo Wujia and Mu Jie had just undergone a Dao Modeling, so they were of no threat to him. As for Di Jiu, who was before him, he was not taking him seriously at all. Since they had teamed up at the last moment when danger had approached, they would only care about themselves. Moreover, he was not afraid that Di Jiu would be joining forces with the other two.

 “Ha ha… How come Daoist Ji is not exercising alchemy in the Flame Essence Chamber of Commerce instead of coming here to take the risk like us?” Wei Hongyi laughed from afar, his tone carrying a hint of sarcasm.

 Ji Mi’s face sank. He relied on the Flame Essence Chamber of Commerce’s prestige to bully the cultivators who arrived in Lackluster Ocean. He had not expected Wei Hongyi to call him out, as he did not hold any grudges against him.

 Di Jiu knew very well what Wei Hongyi had meant. He wanted to tell him that he could kill Ji Mi at will, as Ji Mi was only an alchemy staff member of the Elixir Association. A true alchemist of the Elixir Association definitely would not have come to Lackluster Ocean to take this risk.

 As for why Wei Hongyi was so kind-hearted, Di Jiu knew that when he had killed the patch-faced man earlier, this fellow had not seen clearly how he had done it. Therefore, he wanted to make use of him to kill Ji Mi this time and have a proper look. After he saw how Di Jiu killed Ji Mi clearly, Wei Hongyi would snatch his First Evolution True Dew.

 Despite what Wei Hongyi thought, Di Jiu immediately slashed with his Heavenly Aqua Saber, which did not have any killing intent whatsoever.

 Di Jiu believed that as long as he made a move, Zhuo Wujia and Mu Jie would definitely do the same.

 Upon seeing Di Jiu daring to make the first move, the viciousness on Ji Mi’s face grew richer. He had made use of the Flame Essence Chamber of Commerce’s fame, but not anyone could casually attack him. After all, he was a Dao Modeling Alchemy Deity with a status in the Lackluster Ocean Divine City.

 He drew out a cauldron and used frantic Dao runes against Di Jiu. Di Jiu, who was a mere Immortal Emperor, had dared to attack him?

 He very soon realized that Di Jiu’s Heavenly Aqua Saber did not have any killing intent. At the same time, Mu Jie and Zhuo Wujia, who were behind Di Jiu, had also drawn their Dharma treasures and pointed them at him.

 How could Ji Mi still be concerned about Di Jiu, who was no threat to him at this point? His cauldron flew toward Zhuo Wujia’s Cosmic Kun Pagoda. At the same time, his surrounding Dao runes fluctuated and an even more valiant aura rose to suppress Mu Jie.

 Boom! Ji Mi’s expression instantly changed, as his cauldron was useless against Zhuo Wujia’s Cosmic Kun Pagoda.

 Ji Mi then understood what was going on. Di Jiu’s saber move had torn the law of his divine power apart earlier.

 Fear rushed forth in his head. What kind of terrifying divine power was this?

 Regardless of what kind of terrifying divine power it was, he could only frantically sweep up his Essence Energy toward the Cosmic Kun Pagoda that was about to crush him flat at this point.

 “Pfft!” Mu Jie’s saber flashed through and left a trail of bloody mist in the air. Before Ji Mi’s Principal Spirit could beg for forgiveness, Di Jiu had already burned him with a ball of flame. At the same time, he swept away Ji Mi’s ring.

 Wei Hongyi, who was prepared to step forward, stopped as a chill rushed forth in his head. The three of them had killed Ji Mi earlier almost within a few breaths.

 On the other hand, he still had not seen the technique Di Jiu had used. However, he was certain that if he dared to step forth and make a move, he would not have a better fate than Ji Mi. He could also see that Zhuo Wujia had managed to undergo a Dao Modeling in a short time and was stronger than that woman.

 Di Jiu scanned Wei Hongyi, who had halted, and told Zhuo Wujia and Mu Jie, “Let’s go.”
