Chapter 544: The Rampant Newcomers

Shen Changshui chucked. “It is rumored that cultivators, who resided in the Murderous Dao Lake, would eventually have their Dao foundation shattered and destroyed while they were guarding the Wormhole. And...”

Shen Changshui pointed to the sky. “Someone there does not allow anyone to reside by the Murderous Dao Lake. Everyone has a mutual understanding, so we did not write it down. If you want to learn details about the situation, you two can go to the market shops to purchase some introduction jade slips later on.”

Upon seeing that Shen Changshui wanted to leave, Di Jiu hurriedly stopped him and said, “I still have one last question, Leader Shen. Until when do we have to guard the Wormhole before we can leave this place?”

“As long as you complete a whole year and your contribution points reach the top 10, you can leave this place.” Shen Changshui then looked at Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia profoundly before he turned to leave.

Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia did not say a word. 10,000 to 20,000 cultivators were residing in these four districts and only 10 of them could leave each year. How long did they have to wait before they could leave?

...

“Stabilize your cultivation level and I will purchase some jade slips.” After Shen Changshui left, Di Jiu immediately wanted to purchase the jade slips. He could see that ever since Zhuo Wujia had come out of the Ascension Lake, he had come to understand many things but had not completely stabilized.

“I’m not in a hurry to cultivate, so I can go with you. I also need to purchase some jade slips,” Zhuo Wujia said without hesitation.

“Let’s go together then.” Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force had already scanned all the cultivators in this city, but he could not see anyone who truly had surpassed the level of an Immortal Emperor and broken through to a new level.

Since there were no experts who had truly broken through to a new level, he did not need to be afraid.

The reason why this place of residence was called a city was because the crossroad separated four districts. The cave abodes of the cultivators of each district were a mess, so if any cultivator thought that they could sell something, they could hang up a shop sign outside their cave abode.

Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia found a bigger shop in the North District. However, before they could walk into the shop, a sneer was heard. “You two have some guts! You are nobodies who have just ascended, yet you dare to deceive me, Wang Xie. You’re bold enough to say that you were sent to check this place by someone above.”

A tall young man stopped in front of Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia, blocking their way. He sounded a bit sarcastic and looked very unfriendly.

Di Jiu said softly, “You must also have some guts to get in my way. If you want to make a move, then hurry up. Otherwise, get lost.”

Besides Wang Xie, Zhuo Wujia also found Di Jiu’s attitude suspicious. They were newcomers who had just come here after all.

The reason Di Jiu had dared to say this was because he was not afraid of Wang Xie. Not only was he not afraid of his strength, but he was also not afraid of the rules of this place.

First of all, he was sure that Wang Xie would not dare to report or say anything, as there was nowhere to report to. Otherwise, Wang Xie would have secretly gone to the place where he resided and threatened him.

Secondly, he was sure that fights were not allowed here. Otherwise, how could a rampant person like Wang Xie just talk for so long? He definitely would have made a move by now.

Besides, even if he was not rampant and had flattered him instead, he would still have been targeted by Wang Xie. Since he would have gotten the same outcome, why should he flatter a person like Wang Xie? He was still unsure of how long he was going to reside here, so to avoid being disturbed by the others, he had to show off so that they would not dare to disturb him.

Wang Xie extended his hand. He had to attack Wang Xie.

“Very well, you do have guts.” When Wang Xie did not manage to threaten Di Jiu, he only said a few words before turning to leave. As Di Jiu had expected, he did not procrastinate.

Upon seeing that Wang Xie was leaving, Di Jiu turned his head and told Zhuo Wujia with a smile, “Look, these fellows don’t have guts. After failing to threaten us, he turned to slip away.”

Di Jiu did not say this quietly. When Wang Xie, who had not gone far, heard it, he almost spat out blood. Even though he knew Di Jiu was dead, he still could not help but want to get rid of him.

The surrounding people shook their heads speechlessly, as they were certain that Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia would very soon lose their lives. They did not see a rampant newcomer like Di Jiu often.

“What would you two like?” the shop owner, who had several scars on his face, asked with a face full of smiles when he saw Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia come in.

He had clearly seen Di Jiu calling out Wang Xie at the entrance. Regardless of whether Di Jiu was an unreasonable person, he was not simple if he dared to speak this way to the famous Wang Xie from Inquiry Dao Hall of the East District.

“We have just ascended so we want an introduction to the Wormhole and the Dao World. Of course, since we have just ascended to the Dao World, we don’t have any cultivation techniques of the Dao World, so we also need some of those...” Di Jiu said with a laugh.

He did not need cultivation techniques but he supposed Zhuo Wujia needed them. Even if Zhuo Wujia did not need them, he still had to ask. It would seem strange if they did not want the Dao World’s cultivation techniques after just ascending to the Dao World.

The shop owner with the scars on his face said with a bitter smile, “I would also like to have the Dao World’s cultivation techniques. However, you definitely will not find them in the Wormhole. Even if you do, they can’t be purchased simply with immortal crystals. They require at least Dao crystals.”

“Dao crystals?” Di Jiu had heard of the Dao meridian, so this was nothing to him. However, this was the first time Zhuo Wujia had heard of the Dao crystals, so he seemed shocked.

“Yes, the Dao crystals which are needed in the Dao World. Even though we have some here, it’s only a small amount brought by the Seniors of the Dao World. Of course, if you purchase some resources, you will only need high-grade immortal crystals. I have the best Wormhole information jade slips and some Dao World introduction jade slips. They both cost 1,000 high-grade immortal crystals each.” The shop owner took out a pile of jade slips, sounding very sincere.

Di Jiu took out 2,000 high-grade immortal crystals. “I want to purchase one piece of Wormhole information and one Dao World introduction.”

“Alright.” The shop owner was a perfected Immortal Emperor expert, so he treated Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia as Emperors because of the 2,000 high-grade immortal crystals.

When Zhuo Wujia saw Di Jiu purchase two jade slips, he did the same.

“I would recommend that you two purchase some Wormhole antidotes. You will find it hard to get by if you don’t have them when you guard the Wormhole.” When he saw Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia pay with their immortal crystals, the shop owner realized that the two of them were rich so he hurriedly continued recommending other things.

“I don’t intend to purchase anything else. You can purchase some if you want,” Di Jiu looked at Zhuo Wujia as he spoke to him.

He cultivated the Nomological Dao of the Universe so he was not afraid of any poison. After all, there was only one kind of new law. Besides, even if he needed the antidote, who was better than a grade-nine Immortal Alchemy Emperor like him?

Zhuo Wujia hesitated for a while before asking, “Can I ask how much the antidotes cost?”

“10,000 high-grade immortal crystals each. Don’t worry, the prices at my shop are definitely lower than anywhere else. You will at most find around the same prices somewhere else.” The shop owner looked at Zhuo Wujia in anticipation since he was worried that Zhuo Wujia would find this too expensive.

Zhuo Wujia nodded. He took out a storage bag and threw it to the shop owner. “I will purchase 20 of them. These are 200,000 high-grade immortal crystals.”

10,000 high-grade immortal crystals for an antidote was cheap in Zhuo Wujia’s opinion. In the Immortal World, even Immortal Emperors would not take a look at immortal pills worth 10,000 high-grade immortal crystals.

“Alright, alright...” the shop owner repeated excitedly as he took out two jade bottles and gave them to Zhuo Wujia. He only had 23 antidotes on him and he had sold 20 of them this time. This was top-notch business.

“Both of you should be wary of the Inquiry Dao Hall. Even though they can’t make a move in the Wormhole City District, they can do so when you two guard the Wormhole.” After the business with Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia, the shop owner gave Di Jiu a voice transmission before they left.
