Chapter 549: Entering the Wormhole

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Di Jiu knew that he had no chance to find evidence here or outside, regardless of whether the lady was truly Xiuqi.

His Spiritual Force landed within the pitch-black Wormhole. This Wormhole might be dangerous, but he should be able to survive entering it since he possessed the Spiritual Force escape technique.

He must enter the Wormhole to check it out this time, or he would not have the heart to cultivate otherwise.

Di Jiu glanced at Ni Luan, intending to eliminate the latter first before entering the Wormhole. Ni Luan, who was still choosing the position he intended to occupy, did not know that he was considered a dead man in Di Jiu’s eyes. After taking his time, he chose a center position that would put him on the trail but would not put him in too much danger.

Di Jiu had already implanted nomological array flags around Ni Luan. Others might not be able to kill the man stealthily, but Di Jiu was capable of doing so.

The previous wave of worms had been huge, and many worms had been killed. Di Jiu had to wait for four hours before the new wave arrived.

This wave was definitely larger than the previous wave. However, Di Jiu knew very well that this was still not considered a Worm Tide, as there was no incoming surge of worms.

Mu Jie had already situated herself by Ni Luan’s side while instructing others to take note and guard Ni Luan. Ni Luan might be a mere Deputy Guild Master of a Chamber of Commerce, but he was still an existence whose wrath they could not afford to incur. Mu Jie was certain that she would be held responsible for anything that happened to Ni Luan.

Boom! A big wave of worms swarmed over. One saber move of Di Jiu’s killed numerous worms. The oncoming worms evidently sensed that Di Jiu’s area was dangerous so they all charged toward the center.

When he saw that Zhuo Wujia was capable of dealing with the worms in their area, Di Jiu’s gaze landed on Ni Luan, who was excitedly killing worms. He controlled the previously-scattered nomological array flags to set up a Magnetic Array.

Ni Luan, who was in the midst of an intense battle with a demon insect, suddenly sensed a powerful force pulling him in the direction of the Wormhole.

This scared Ni Luan out of his wits. Without any hesitation, he was about to take out a talisman. However, before he could do so, a huge foot appeared behind him out of nowhere...

But there was no one behind him, right? This doubt had just formulated when Ni Luan was kicked into the Wormhole.

Di Jiu was relieved. He knew that it would still be somewhat difficult for him to solely rely on the nomological array flags to drag Ni Luan into the Wormhole. As expected, however, one kick using his Jumbo Footprint had been enough.

The distance between him and Ni Luan was more than 1,000 feet, and 100 to 200 people stood between them. Absolutely no one would think that Ni Luan had been kicked into the Wormhole by him.

Unless someone was learned in space laws as well and could find the spatial traces of the Jumbo Footprint he had used...

“Ah!” exclaimed Mu Jie in terror when she saw that Ni Luan had suddenly been dragged to the Wormhole. This was not the first time the latter had come for a test trial. Now that such a thing had happened before her eyes, she had to take responsibility for it. The Moving Essence Chamber of Commerce was not so easy to appease. Furthermore, she was considered less than an ant in the eyes of this chamber of commerce.

I’m dead, thought Mu Jie. Then, she heard Di Jiu shout anxiously, “Ah! Guild Master Ni was dragged into the Wormhole! I will save him...”

She saw Di Jiu dashing to where she was and reaching with a hand to grab Ni Luan before he was dragged in. In a moment, with a surprised exclamation, Di Jiu was dragged into the Wormhole by the worms as well.

Mu Jie sighed. She had failed to expect that this newbie would be so passionate. Nonetheless, she quickly regained her senses and commanded, “Put in your all, everyone. Kill all these worms first. Perhaps Guild Master Ni was not dragged into the recesses of the Wormhole...”

The worms were increasing in number and some had even bypassed their defense line. The mission this time would have ended in failure without the Defense Array behind them.

Zhuo Wujia had not expected that Di Jiu would try to save Ni Luan either. However, he quickly realized that Di Jiu was not someone who would save Ni Luan. Despite knowing him for a short period of time, he already understood Di Jiu’s character somewhat. Given who Di Jiu was, he would never risk his life to save a piece of trash like Ni Luan.

If he had not done that to save Ni Luan, then had Di Jiu entered the Wormhole of his own accord? This was not possible. Even a fool would never be so suicidal.

At this thought, Zhuo Wujia immediately understood what was going on.

He was certain that Di Jiu had entered the Wormhole on purpose. The reason Ni Luan had been pulled by the worm into the Wormhole had to be related to Di Jiu as well.

Previously, Kan Yiwei had transmitted a voice message to Di Jiu and him and told them that Ni Luan had once kicked a lady into the Wormhole. That lady had been called Qi-something.

Zhuo Wujia knew Di Jiu had inquired about Nong Xiuqi. Di Jiu and Nong Xiuqi’s relationship had to be strong for him to want to enter the Wormhole under the suspicion that the woman had been kicked inside.

Zhuo Wujia suddenly felt new respect for Di Jiu. This was a true expert. In his place, would he have been able to do what Di Jiu had done?

Kan Yiwei stared in shock at where Di Jiu had disappeared. He had wanted to befriend Di Jiu, but the latter had been dragged into the Wormhole. This was impossible! After all, he had witnessed Di Jiu’s strength.

However, it had happened before his eyes. How could he not believe that this was the truth?

...

Di Jiu used his Spiritual Force to track his Spiritual Force imprint the moment he entered the Wormhole. A Spiritual Force imprint had been left in Ni Luan by Di Jiu’s Jumbo Footprint. The reason he had come here was to capture Ni Luan as fast as possible and make Ni Luan draw a portrait of the lady he had kicked into the Wormhole.

Di Jiu was confident that Ni Luan would not be killed by the worms so easily. After all, the Wormhole might be dangerous, but the real danger lay in the Worm Protectorate beyond the Wormhole, not within the Wormhole itself.

The changes in fluctuation of the Heaven Earth Law within the Wormhole were huge and they interweaved with the spatial chaos of the two worlds. Ni Luan felt extremely uncomfortable as he was continuously tossed in the air of the Wormhole. Di Jiu, on the other hand, did not find it hard to get used to the environment in the slightest.

As Di Jiu had predicted, Ni Luan was in no danger. He had activated a protection talisman and used a defense Dharma treasure.

The nomological changes and spatial chaos only made Ni Luan feel uncomfortable but were insufficient to kill him.

His Spiritual Force was unable to extend because the nomological changes within the Wormhole were far too great.

Di Jiu did not need to extend his Spiritual Force, as he had already spotted Ni Luan, who was repeatedly being tossed around, with his Dao eye.

Boom! Ni Luan collided with a huge floating rampart and bounced back, spitting out mouthfuls of blood. On the upside, he had stopped being tossed and could stabilize his body.

Feeling pleasantly surprised, Ni Luan saw an invisible defense restriction that he charged towards without hesitation. The defense restriction might be invisible, but it was not difficult for him to enter the area. After all, he was knowledgeable in the Array Dao.

However, just as he took out some array flags and was about to rip apart this defense restriction, he suddenly felt the space around him constrict. Then, a huge hand seal appeared, grabbed his neck, and lifted him up.

“You...” Ni Luan had evidently recognized Di Jiu, as he stared at Di Jiu in disbelief. However, he had only uttered one word when his throat seemed to get sealed.

Di Jiu said calmly, “That’s right, it is I. I saw that you entered the Wormhole, so I was very anxious. That’s why I quickly came here to save you.”

“Quickly, let me down then!” This was what Ni Luan wanted to say the most. However, he dared not be disrespectful to Di Jiu. Enraged, he silently decided to rip Di Jiu into pieces later, despite being unable to say anything at the moment.

Di Jiu did put him down, but his nomological array flags instantly set up an invisible major array in the surroundings.

A moment later, a huge wave of worms came back, swiftly brushing by Di Jiu and Ni Luan. Di Jiu knew that Mu Jie and the rest must have driven this wave of worms back.

“What do you want?” While suppressing his anger, Ni Luan glared at Di Jiu, who had placed a restriction within him in a very short time.
