Ninth In the World

Di Jiu looked happily at the Clear Drizzle Pill on his palm. After gaining insight into his alchemy laws, three months after he had successfully refined the Earth Essence Pill, he refined a grade-two immortal pill, the Clear Drizzle Pill.

The grade of the pill was not so significant, as the Clear Drizzle Pills created possessed seven pill inscriptions. These Clear Drizzle Pills were nearly at their highest quality possible.

A faint, refreshing pill fragrance was exuded. This was definitely the best healing immortal pill he had seen so far.

Di Jiu swallowed the elixir on his palm. The elixir instantly melted upon consumption into a lightly-fragrant elixir liquid that seemed to contain an indescribable order aura.

He immediately sensed the swift recovery of his injuries. The Immortal Spirit Stones surrounding him quickly disintegrated and he absorbed all Immortal Spirit Qi released.

A mere Clear Drizzle Pill had managed to heal nearly all his flesh injuries, which had remained open for more than a year. Only some scarring was left on his face, but it would surely disappear shortly.

The Clear Drizzle Pill was indeed a healing treasure among all beginner-level immortal pills. This elixir would also become a safety measure for him when he was undergoing body-tempering.

“Junior Sister Mo…” called Di Jiu.

Mo Yuxuan would occasionally head up to the deck and take a look at Black Fire and Little Tree, who were controlling the flying boat. However, she spent the majority of her time recuperating in her room.

At the moment, he was sincerely grateful for the Sect Masters who had attacked the Starry Sky Immortal City. Without them, he would not have possessed an immortal pill formula, the immortal spiritual herbs required for alchemy, and the materials required for blacksmithing. He would not have been able to do anything, regardless of how good the plans he made were.

Compared to the immortal crystals and elixirs he had obtained from the rings of those sect masters, the items with the true value were the large amount of immortal spiritual herbs, the various immortal pill elixir formulas, and the many blacksmithing materials.

…

Boom! Di Jiu sensed a strong vibration before the beginner-level immortal weapon he was currently refining turned into scraps.

Di Jiu rushed out of the ship’s cabin and landed on the deck.

“Big Brother, we’re being chased by the Meteor Storm!” shouted Little Tree anxiously while Black Fire controlled the flying boat to evade the meteorites. The vibration of the flying boat had been caused by a meteorite that had slammed against the flying boat’s Defense Array.

Fortunately, the meteorite had only brushed past the border of the boat’s Defense Array and had not crashed into the array head-on. Otherwise, the Defense Array would have been smashed into pieces, even if the level of the array was higher.

“Black Fire, move out of the way. I will take it away.” Di Jiu instantly realized that they were not being chased by the Meteor Storm. Instead, the flying boat Dharma treasure Black Fire was controlling had gotten stuck in the middle of the Meteor Storm.

The number of meteorites within the void was not small. However, in comparison to the vast, boundless void, one could only say that Black Fire had been very unlucky to encounter such a dense Meteor Storm.

Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force was much more powerful than Black Fire’s. Under his control, the flying boat Dharma treasure bypassed the gaps within the dense Meteor Storm. In just over two hours, the flying boat under Di Jiu’s control rushed out of the Meteor Storm.

“Big Brother is so formidable!” praised Little Tree, who was extremely nervous, the moment the flying boat rushed out of the Meteor Storm.

Di Jiu ignored Little Tree as he looked at Black Fire instead and asked, “Black Fire, did you encounter any cultivators wandering in the void in the two years that I was practicing alchemy and blacksmithing in seclusion?”

Black Fire hurriedly said, “No. I have always wanted to encounter somebody and get some directions. However, even though such a long time has passed, I have yet to encounter anyone.”

“My Master had told me before that it is extremely difficult to survive in the void and cultivate within it as well. Once one enters the void, it is challenging to leave. That is why, other than the extremely few cultivators who wander in the void, there are rarely any cultivators who live in the void. The vast and boundless void constitutes the majority of the entire universe. It would be difficult for us to encounter any wandering cultivators in the void itself.” Mo Yuxuan had also come up to the deck.

Mo Yuxuan was talking about the void universe of the Cultivation World. However, although the Cultivation World’s void and the Immortal World’s void universe did not belong to the same plane, the logic applied should still be the same.

After she had received the Clear Drizzle Pill from Di Jiu, her injuries had recovered very fast. Just a year later, she looked like any normal cultivator. However, the severe injuries caused by the Heavenly Fire Spirit had yet to be healed. This was only an improvement in her appearance. Once all Rainbow Immortal Peaches were consumed, if Mo Yuxuan had yet to receive any treatment, she would still have to die.

However, Di Jiu said, “No, someone’s coming over. His cultivation level is higher than any of ours.”

As he finished speaking, a flying boat swiftly appeared within everyone’s Spiritual Force range.

“There is really a flying boat coming over. Should we leave quickly?” Little Tree was a little worried when it heard that this person’s cultivation level was higher than theirs.

“We can’t escape now…”

A man in a sackcloth appeared on the flying boat that was coming over. He had long hair, narrow eyes that formed a line, a high nose bridge, and broad palms.

“Hello, I’m Shangmou Tai. You are truly very skilled if you were able to rush out of the Meteor Storm unscathed. You must be formidable indeed…” As the sack-clothed man praised them, he gave them a thumbs-up. At the same time, his Spiritual Force landed on Di Jiu.

He must have recognized that Di Jiu was the one in charge of the group. What surprised him was that he was unable to see through Di Jiu’s cultivation level.

Di Jiu also cupped his fists and said, “I’m Di Jiu. Greetings, Daoist Shangmou Tai. I only managed to escape here because I often wandered in the void and mastered the pattern of the meteorites’ movements.”
