Chapter 212: Any News On Di Jiu?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It had been 11 days since Di Jiu had entered the bottom of the snowy mountain. He did not know any earth escape techniques and the earth escape talisman he possessed was not high-grade. It was just something he had obtained from the Qi Family’s Commercial Building. The best talisman he possessed was a Level-Three earth escape talisman that had been rendered useless two days after he had entered the bottom of the snowy mountain.

Di Jiu was currently solely relying on his powerful physical body and his condensed Quintessential Essence and Spiritual Force to burrow into the ground.

Every time he was extremely tired, he would enter the Small World to rest for a while. 11 days passed. Di Jiu’s cultivation remained at the second-stage Void Spirit Realm, but his Quintessential Essence did grow significantly stronger.

It was fortunate that he possessed a Dao fire. The snowy mountain might be humongous, but he would not lose his direction as a result.

On the 15th day, Di Jiu stopped borrowing. He had spotted a Level-Nine large array, which was also an array chain.

This Level-Nine array chain included an Illusion Array, a Spirit-Binding Array and a Defense Array. That was not all, though. Behind the Defense Array was a Level-Nine killing array.

Di Jiu grew a little uneasy. He had thought that the reason this place made his Dao fire pulsate was because there was a natural heaven-earth flame hidden in the recesses. After seeing the sheer amount of Level-Nine large arrays around him, Di Jiu realized that this would most likely be the cave abode of an apex expert.

If this expert was still alive, coming here would be a suicide mission.

To enter or not to enter?

Di Jiu hesitated for a few seconds before he decided to enter. As a Level-Nine Array King, he knew very well that although this array chain remained intact, it was quite old. Based on his experience, these Defense Arrays had been set up for at least 10,000 years.

Even if a True Form Realm expert had once lived here, there was absolutely no way they would still be alive after 10,000 years.

The only reason he had found this place was because of the Dao fire he possessed. If he was afraid and decided to leave after coming all the way here, how could he be willing? Furthermore, cultivating resources were becoming increasingly scarce. Who could find an opportunity that came with no danger?

As soon as he made a decision, Di Jiu started to crack the array.

If someone else had gone there, they would have been able to do nothing after seeing the Level-Nine Defense Array. Anyone who was not an Array Master would most likely wander around this area and leave without discovering the presence of the Illusion Array.

Di Jiu, who was a Level-Nine Array King, understood the workings of this array chain in three days.

...

Meanwhile, at the Galaxy Sect of the Polar Night Continent, Jing Moshuang was staring at the ruins of the sect in a daze. She was fully aware that the Galaxy Sect was exterminated, but she still felt extremely sorrowful when she saw the ruins.

She owed a huge debt to the Galaxy Sect and had sworn to rebuild it. However, she was currently only at the Golden Core Realm. It would take 100 or even 1,000 years for the Galaxy Sect to be rebuilt...

Wei Shanshan wiped away her tears. Master Wu Zhenzhen had been killed here by the Qi Family’s Commercial Building.

“Senior Xi, I’m begging you to help repair the Galaxy Sect’s Defense Array.” Although Jing Moshuang knew some simple Dharma Arrays, she did not possess the capability to repair a sect’s Defense Array.

The person Jing Moshuang was addressing was a short, tanned man who looked honest. He had encountered Jing Moshuang and company at the Sky Market City while searching for Di Jiu and accompanied the three of them to the ice river within the Million Sky Market, thus saving Ceng Beizi and Yu Jie.

Unfortunately, Jing Moshuang, who claimed to be Di Jiu’s wife, had no way of finding Di Jiu. Left with no other choice, he could only follow Jing Moshuang and company to the Galaxy Sect to wait for Di Jiu there.

Upon hearing what Jing Moshuang said, Xian Ze rubbed his head helplessly. Finding Di Jiu was extremely important. He had obtained a confirmation from He Tai, Ceng Beizi and Yu Jie regarding Di Jiu’s age. As he had guessed, Di Jiu was in his 20s.

A cultivator who had yet to turn 30 had already cultivated to the Essence Soul Realm. Di Jiu had also been able to kill a Void Spirit Realm Expert while he was at the Essence Soul Realm. This showed how powerful Di Jiu’s potential was. In the entire history of the Polar Night Continent, no genius like Di Jiu had ever appeared.

Plus, Di Jiu had had no master to guide him, so he’d had to find his own cultivating resources.

If he provided Di Jiu with large amounts of cultivating resources and guided him, who knew what heights Di Jiu would reach?

He would get the opportunity to bring Di Jiu to the Small Central World and let him participate in the True Dominion Genius Tournament. He only had to find him first. Most of the cultivators in the Polar Night Continent did not even know that the Small Central World existed. As a third-stage True Form Realm Cultivator, he knew about the existence of the five continents, the Small Central World, as well as the True Dominion.

The Polar Night Continent was shattered, and it was extremely hard for even a Pioneer Sea Realm cultivator to appear. Xian Ze was extremely worried. Therefore, when he discovered that a rookie like Di Jiu had managed to repair the Night Star Continent, he immediately started to search for Di Jiu.

Most people would think that the Night Star Continent had truly been repaired. However, Xian Ze was a True Form Realm Cultivator. Thus, he knew that the restoration of the continent was only superficial. The true Dao Law was still shattered. At this rate, the Night Star Continent would still not be able to produce any powerful cultivators.

In order to restore the Heaven-Earth Dao Law of the Night Star Continent, one needed to search for experts from the Immortal World.

He wanted to head to the Immortal World and spread the news of the Night Star Continent’s ruin. In the long history of the Night Star Continent, the continent had produced numerous experts. Perhaps when some of the experts who had stayed in the Night Star Continent before discovered that the continent had been shattered, they would come over to help repair the Night Star Continent.

Although Xian Ze was a True Form Realm Cultivator, he was well-aware of his capabilities. He would most likely remain stuck at the early-stage True Form Realm in this life. Therefore, he was searching for a genius so that he could support that genius with all his might and attain the True Form Realm before heading to the Small Central World.

Over the past few years, he had not encountered any cultivators that could catch his eye, much less any geniuses. Now that Di Jiu had appeared, he would naturally want to find him with all his might. In the end, he had not found Di Jiu. Instead, he had found a bunch of Di Jiu’s friends.

When he heard Jing Moshuang’s plea and looked at the few young cultivators there, Xian Ze sighed. “I’m willing to help, Moshuang. However, it would be meaningless for me to do so.”

“Senior Xi, so long as the Defense Array of the Galaxy Sect is reconstructed, we could slowly cultivate here and accumulate. The day when the Galaxy Sect’s glory is restored would eventually come. Plus, aren’t you looking for Big Brother Di?” Ceng Beizi asked doubtfully. “He could be in seclusion somewhere. Once he leaves seclusion, he might come back.”

Ceng Beizi only said this because she and Yu Jie were both at the mid-stage Foundation Establishment Realm. Jing Moshuang was a Golden Core Realm Cultivator. The Qi Family’s Commercial Building had been exterminated by Di Jiu, so they qualified to rebuild the sect given their current strength.

Xian Ze shook his head. “Rebuilding a sect is not as simple as you guys think. Do you even have any spirit meridians? What about large amounts of Spirit Stones? Rebuilding a second-rate sect like the Galaxy Sect would require at least several hundred millions of high-grade Spirit Stones...”

Before Xian Ze could finish his speech, Jing Moshuang and company drew a cold breath. spirit meridians were a thing of legends. Several hundred millions of high-grade Spirit Stones? That number sounded extremely scary.

When he saw that the few of them were shocked by his words, Xian Ze said once again, “I also don’t recommend rebuilding the Galaxy Sect here.”

Jing Moshuang bowed and said, “Sir, I owe a debt to the Galaxy Sect. Now that the sect has been exterminated, it is my duty to rebuild it.”

Xian Ze smiled. “It’s not that I’m not allowing you to rebuild the Galaxy Sect. I simply don’t recommend rebuilding the sect here. Do you guys know about the five continents? What about the Small Central World?”

When he noticed that Jing Moshuang and company were looking at each other, Xian Ze explained about the five continents and the Small Central World. In the end, he added, “Hence, I believe that you could head to the Small Central World and rebuild the Galaxy Sect if you wish to once we find Di Jiu.”

In Xian Ze’s opinion, given Di Jiu’s potential, he would definitely be able to enter the Small Central World’s Dao Roll. Once that happened, he would have the qualifications to build a sect in the Small Central World.

“How could we head to the Small Central World, sir?” Jing Moshuang silently clenched her fists.

She had originally thought that the Essence Soul Realm was very impressive. She had been extremely excited when she had first attained the Golden Core Realm. After hearing Senior Xian Ze’s words, she now knew that cultivators at the Essence Soul Realm did not even qualify to enter certain sects and become inner sect disciples in the Small Central World. A mere Golden Core Realm Cultivator like her would have no chance.

“This is why I am trying to find Di Jiu,” Xian Ze said solemnly. “I know of a place known as the Dusk Star Ruins, which is most likely where the Teleportation Array to the Small Central World lies. Unfortunately, now that the Night Star Continent shattered, the geography of the entire continent has changed a lot. I do not know the current location of the Dusk Star Ruins.”

“Over these past few years, I have been traveling everywhere and circling the entire Polar Night Continent. However, I’ve failed to find the Dusk Star Ruins. I’ve heard that the Qi Family once found a mystic area, which I suspect might be the Dusk Star Ruins. However, the Qi Family was completely exterminated by Di Jiu... How could he be able to cultivate to the Essence Soul Realm at such a young age?”

Xian Ze stopped speaking and looked at a tall man rushing over.

“Senior Sister Moshuang!” the newcomer called out in surprise before he could land on the ground.

Jing Moshuang took two steps forward in pleasant surprise. “Are you Geng Jihua?”

The man, who was indeed Geng Ji, said excitedly, “I could not find Brother Jiu, no matter where I looked. Hence, I decided to come back and wait and see. I didn’t expect to see you here...”

Geng Ji was no longer the honest, burly man of the past who never schemed. He started watching his words as soon as he saw that there were other people beside Jing Moshuang. When his Spiritual Force scanned Xian Ze, he became anxious, as he could not see through the short man’s cultivation level. If such an expert was around, he would definitely not say that he had some news on Brother Jiu.

“You’re not bad. You have cultivated to the second-stage Essence Soul Realm despite your young age.” Xian Ze looked at Geng Ji and nodded his head. Excluding Di Jiu, whom he had never seen in real life before, Geng Ji was the cultivator with the highest potential he had ever met.

“Junior Brother Geng, this is Senior Xian Ze. Senior Xi saved us...” Jing Moshuang said hastily.

Then, she introduced everyone else.

When Jing Moshuang said that He Tai, Yu Jie and Ceng Beizi all came from the same place as Di Jiu, Geng Ji walked over hurriedly and bowed, calling them all Senior Brothers and Sisters.

Geng Ji was an Essence Soul Realm cultivator. He Tai, Yu Jie and everyone else came from Earth, so they truly felt that everyone was equal. However, after staying in the Polar Night Continent for so many years, they knew that there was no such thing as equality in the Cultivation World. The few of them denied their titles and bowed before Geng Ji. They all knew about Geng Ji’s background. He was a powerful man who had fought against the Qi Family’s Commercial Building with Di Jiu while he had only been at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

When he heard Jing Moshuang’s words, Geng Ji was relieved. “I just received some news about Brother Jiu,” he said. “Coming here was a coincidence. I never expected that I’d encounter you guys here.”

“You have some news about Di Jiu?” Xian Ze took a step forward excitedly and grabbed hold of Geng Ji.
