Chapter 284: The Galaxy Sect’s Crisis

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Defense Array outside the Galaxy Sect was a level-seven Defense Array that must have been set up by Huan Mingzi. Huan Mingzi had said that he only needed one supreme-grade spirit meridian, but Di Jiu realized that eight spirit meridians had been implemented here when he casually scanned the place with his Spiritual Force.

The eight spirit meridians had been placed at the points of the compass, perfectly gathering the Spirit Qi from the surrounding area within the circumference of several hundred thousand meters. This made the Spiritual Aura of the area become distinct. Di Jiu was very impressed by the positions of the eight spirit meridians. However, he felt that the protection of the spirit meridians was highly insufficient.

The only protection these eight spirit meridians had was the sect’s Defense Array. This signified that these spirit meridians would become decorations for anyone to take away once the sect’s Defense Array was broken.

Di Jiu naturally wanted to change the sect’s Defense Array. A sect’s Defense Array had to be composed of a strangulation array and a trap killing array. Both could be used to defend the sect against attacks from outside and inside the sect. The strangulation array would be activated if anyone attacked the sect’s Defense Array or stole the spirit meridians.

Di Jiu believed in the capability of the strangulation array and trap killing array created by his array formation skills and his Spiritual Force. Thanks to the combined support of the eight supreme-grade spirit meridians, even if the culprit was a Domain Realm expert, they would still be confined by the trap killing array. They would then be sucked in by the strangulation array and get strangled to death.

Setting up the array was not an urgent matter. Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force had already sensed Huan Mingzi and Xian Ze, who were accompanying and chatting with four cultivators. Huan Mingzi’s facial expression was not very happy. He seemed to have encountered some kind of trouble.

Di Jiu called over Di Di and Tian Ku, indicating that they were to follow him into the sect.

Di Di had completed her tribulation transcendence in the Quintessential World and attained the third-stage Void Spirit Realm. Tian Ku had also attained the ninth-stage Golden Core Realm.

“Sect Master...” Wei Shanshan was the most enthusiastic about rebuilding the Galaxy Sect. She was the one who had recruited most of the disciples in the sect. She heard the news the moment Di Jiu appeared at the entrance of the Galaxy Sect.

“I’m not the sect master. The sect was built thanks to Huan Ming’s help...”

Before Di Jiu could finish speaking, Wei Shanshan said anxiously, “Senior Huan is unwilling to become the sect master...”

Di Jiu waved his hand. “I know. Let Jing Moshuang be the sect master then.”

“Unfortunately, Sister Moshuang is not around. Big Brother Di, the Galaxy Sect will not be able to stay united,” replied Wei Shanshan anxiously.

A sect did indeed need a sect master. The sect master was the soul and spirit of the sect.

After falling silent for a short while, Di Jiu said, “Alright. I will be the temporary Sect Master then. Oh, that’s right. Junior Sister Shanshan, why does the sect still not have a name?”

The atmosphere in the Galaxy Sect was grand. It had already been a few years since the sect had been built. Could Huan Mingzi have forgotten to carve out the name of the sect?

Wei Shanshan said hastily, “Both Senior Huan Mingzi and Senior Xian Ze said that you’re the only one who could write down the sect’s name. Hence, we were waiting for your return to do that.”

Di Jiu knew that Huan Mingzi and Xian Ze had misunderstood what he meant. To be honest, he had wanted to rebuild the Galaxy Sect mainly to help Jing Moshuang and repay the Galaxy Sect’s debt of gratitude for its cultivation technique. The Galaxy Sect in the Polar Night Continent had also been exterminated because of him.

Di Jiu did not explain himself. He just asked once again, “What did the four True Form Realm warriors from the Genesis Sect, the Mirage Sword Sect and the Ocean Monarch Palace come here for? Does this have anything to do with the disappearance of the Genesis Sect Master?”

After some slight hesitation, Wei Shanshan replied worriedly, “That’s not it. The True Form Realm experts from the Genesis Sect didn’t bring up this matter. The main purpose of their visit is the Qin Qian Mountain Range. They said that the Qin Qian Mountain Range was the place where cultivators from various sects came to put themselves to the test. It was illogical for the Galaxy Sect to build its base here without prior consent. They would have attacked if Senior Huan Mingzi had not been present.”

“Why are they still here if they are no match for Senior Huan Mingzi?” asked Di Jiu, who looked puzzled.

Wei Shanshan said softly, “They are disputing over trifling matters with Senior Huan Mingzi. I heard that the True Dominion’s Skygold Protectorate Lord will be arriving in a few days. The eldest Pavilion Lord of the Prophecy Pavilion, Chang Xiao, will be coming as well.”

Di Jiu lamented silently. When he had first encountered the Skygold Protectorate Lord, he had dared not scan him with his Spiritual Force, as the Skygold Protectorate Lord was simply too strong. Now, however, Di Jiu remained calm when he heard that the Skygold Protectorate Lord was coming. He believed that, given his fourth-stage True Form Realm cultivation level and his beyond level-ten Spiritual Force, the Skygold Protectorate Lord would not be able to do anything to him. Even if he used his full strength to attack him, it would be hard to tell who would emerge victorious.

He was currently not afraid of the Skygold Protectorate Lord.

Di Jiu had never taken Chang Xiao, the first Pavilion Lord of the Prophecy Pavilion, seriously. It did not matter to him that Chang Xiao’s injuries had healed after two years. He had been unafraid of Chang Xiao in the past, so he was even less afraid of him now.

“Big Brother Di, I will inform Senior Huan Mingzi that you’ve returned.” Wei Shanshan was very excited. Di Jiu’s return seemed to make her feel even more at ease than Huan Mingzi’s presence.

Di Jiu stopped Wei Shanshan. “There is no need to do that. Take Di Di and Uncle Tian to my mountain peak so they can cultivate. I need to rebuild the sect’s Defense Array.”

Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force had already sensed the mountain peak that belonged to him. It was located in the very center of the Galaxy Sect. The mountain peak had been named Galaxy Peak, as it was the peak of the Sect Master.

“Yes, Sect Master,” replied Wei Shanshan as she bowed hastily. She knew that Di Di and Tian Ku were Di Jiu’s family. Furthermore, Di Di’s current cultivation level seemed to be slightly higher than hers.

After Wei Shanshan led Di Di and Tian Ku away, Di Jiu landed outside the sect’s Defense Array. He had decided to rebuild it.

Di Jiu planted various array flags made of Geocentric Pattern Gold and Heavenly Purple Thunder Rocks underneath the ground. He also used numerous supreme-grade saber weapons as an array foundation.

The sect’s Defense Array was different from an ordinary trap killing array. Di Jiu was a level-nine Array King, but even he could not build one in a short time. He believed that no one other than him could set up a trap killing array or strangulation array that could protect the spirit meridians.

The main reason was because Qian Fenghua had imparted to him the Array Dao knowledge without any reservations. Qian Fenghua must have been an expert from the Immortal World. The knowledge imparted from such an Immortal World expert would naturally be much stronger than any knowledge from the Cultivation World.

Ten days later, Di Jiu had set up the sect’s Defense Array and Strangulation Array. As he had been setting up the Defense Array, he had suddenly had a curious thought. He had thought of merging the 108 Foundation Orders of the Five Continent Dao Pagoda with the 108 main array foundations.

In Di Jiu’s opinion, the Defense Array he had set up was comparable to a level-ten Dharma Array.

...

Huan Mingzi’s expression was extremely ugly as he was sitting in the guest hall of the Galaxy Sect. The four True Form Realm experts, who had been staying in the sect’s guest room for half a month, refused to go. They kept talking about meaningless topics and wasting their time.

He knew that their intention was to keep him and Xian Ze there. They did not want the two of them to go. The reason was naturally the supreme-grade spirit meridians.

They believed that, following Di Jiu’s disappearance, the spirit meridians Di Jiu had obtained on the Small World Planet had to be in Huan Mingzi’s possession. This theory was proven by the fact that the Galaxy Sect had used eight supreme-grade spirit meridians to build its foundation.

The Qin Qian Mountain Range had originally been a place with no signs of human habitation. When the Galaxy Sect had made it livable, envious people had swamped over like leeches trying to suck the blood out of the sect.

“Elder Yan, I apologize, but I cannot keep you company any longer. I have some matters to take care of, so I need to head out.” Huan Mingzi had no desire to keep waiting there. He had to find Di Jiu. He believed that Di Jiu was safe and sound. If that was the case, Di Jiu must have entered reclusive cultivation somewhere.

Everyone thought that it was that bearded youth who had eradicated the Mirage Sword Sect. Only Huan Mingzi strongly believed that Di Jiu was the culprit.

Di Jiu’s array formation skills were definitely stronger than his, as Di Jiu had set up a trap killing array and an explosive array in order to kill Mirage Sword Sect Master Xiao Wu and company. Hence, he needed to quickly find Di Jiu so that they could work together to rebuild the sect’s Defense Array.

“I’m sorry, Pavilion Lord Huan. I’ve just received a message from the Skygold Protectorate Lord. You will need to wait a bit longer, as the Skygold Protectorate Lord will be arriving soon.” The plump, white-faced Elder of the Mirage Sword Sect, Yan Xuanxiang, stood up as well. Although his tone was calm, it was evident that he would attack if Huan Mingzi left in a hurry.

He was no match for Huan Mingzi by himself, as his cultivation level was only at the seventh-stage True Form Realm. However, Palatial Lord Ao Huang from the Ocean Monarch Palace, whose cultivation level was at the eighth-stage True Form Realm, was also there. Genesis Sect Grand Elder Peng Yun, who had just attained the seventh-stage True Form Realm, and Qin Ku, who was at the fifth-stage True Form Realm, were also present.

No matter how formidable Huan Mingzi was, he was only at the ninth-stage Three Monarch Realm. He might be halfway into the Domain Realm, but three late-stage True Form Realm warriors could restrain him. Furthermore, Ao Huang’s strength surpassed that of an average late-stage True Form Realm cultivator. He ranked fourth among the 36 True Form Kings, so he was one rank below Huan Mingzi.

In their opinion, Xian Ze, who was at the fourth-stage True Form Realm, was present just for show.

Huan Mingzi’s face was gloomy and he had an ugly expression. Before he could speak, laughter traveled from outside the sect. “I hope that I am not late.”

“The Skygold Protectorate Lord has arrived. We could welcome him together, Pavilion Lord Huan.” Mirage Sword Sect Elder Yan Xuanxiang laughed.

Huan Mingzi sighed silently. He had already known that the Skygold Protectorate Lord would not let Di Jiu off. Based on that day’s events, his assumption was correct. If the Skygold Protectorate Lord had come down personally to the Galaxy Sect, Huan Mingzi had to welcome him, regardless of whether he was willing to do so. Managing the situation with the Galaxy Sect was now beyond his capabilities.

At the moment, Huan Mingzi felt regretful for choosing to occupy the Qin Qian Mountain Range. He knew very well that Di Jiu could not possibly live in peace after the news that he had obtained more than 100 supreme-grade spirit meridians on the Small Central Planet spread.
