Chapter 578: The First Friend

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The young man in gold had seen Di Jiu walking over. However, there was no yearning for help in his eyes, as he was still immersed in killing the Five-Element Beasts.

He clearly did not believe that Di Jiu would save him.

Over 200 Five-Element Beasts would indeed have been a huge problem for Di Jiu before his Dao Modeling. Even if he’d wanted to save him, he would still have had to set up all sorts of Defense Arrays.

At the moment, Di Jiu did not hesitate at all. His Heavenly Aqua Saber swept up huge saber screens.

Before he had modeled his Dao, Di Jiu’s Sky Screen Saber Move divine power had only been able to slash out with a saber flare. However, he could use seven to eight saber screens now.

All sorts of dull gray bloody mists exploded as the Five-Element Beasts were killed by the divine power interweaved by his Sky Screen.

The other Five-Element Beasts reacted and gave up on attacking the young man in gold from all sides. Instead, they turned toward Di Jiu.

Di Jiu did not cower. His Heavenly Aqua Saber constantly slashed out saber flares, each of them killing one Five-Element Beast.

Di Jiu did not care about the blade flares and water arrows that had struck him. If someone else had been worried about the Five-Element Beast Poison, they might not have dared to do this. However, he really didn’t care.

The young man in gold was stupefied. Ever since he had entered the Vast Ruins a long time ago, he had not seen a ferocious person like Di Jiu.

In just a few minutes, these over 200 Five-Element Beasts were all killed by Di Jiu. He then put his Heavenly Aqua Saber on his back and said with cupped fists, “Are you alright?”

The young man in gold understood and hurriedly replied with cupped fists, “Thank you for saving my life. I’m Mo Yejiu from the Green Glazed Dao Sect.”

Under normal circumstances, after Mo Yejiu had finished saying that, anyone would immediately have been shocked and respectful. What surprised Mo Yejiu was that after the long-haired young man who had saved him heard that, he only nodded his head and said, “Don’t mention it. I only helped because I was passing by. I’m Di Jiu from the First Evolution Dao Sect...”

Mo Yejiu looked at Di Jiu, feeling even more puzzled. The First Evolution Dao Sect and the Green Glazed Dao Sect were equally famous top-notch sects. Given Di Jiu’s talent, he was clearly a core disciple or inherited-teachings disciple of the First Evolution Dao Sect. In that case, how could he not have heard of Mo Yejiu?

However, Mo Yejiu soon pushed aside these thoughts. Since he was also a cultivation maniac, why hadn’t he also heard of Di Jiu even though he was the Green Glazed Dao Sect’s Young Sect Master?

“Brother Di Jiu, you must have modeled your Dao, right? I have never seen anyone of your strength in this lifetime,” Mo Yejiu praised Di Jiu, as he looked up to his strength.

As the Young Sect Master of the Green Glazed Dao Sect, even though he was not good at communication, he usually interacted with young sect masters and top-notch core disciples. However, all these cultivators of the same level could not compare to Di Jiu.

When Mo Yejiu thought about soon returning to attend the so-called Hidden Sacred Dao Discussion Exchange Meeting, he suddenly felt somewhat bored.

Di Jiu said, “It’s been over 10 years since I’ve attained the Dao Modeling. Oh, that’s right. I’ve been wandering around here for nearly 10 years. How come I can’t find the entrance to the second level?”

Mo Yejiu glanced at Di Jiu speechlessly. He had modeled his Dao for 10 years?

“Brother Di, didn’t you enter the Vast Ruins with directions?” Mo Yejiu was even more puzzled. Theoretically, one should enter the Vast Ruins with directions.

“Directions?” Di Jiu felt increasingly puzzled. “I’ve purchased a Vast Ruins introduction jade slip, but it did not give me directions.”

Mo Yejiu sighed. “Brother Di, this must be your first time in the Vast Ruins so you’ve been cheated. There are many different kinds of Vast Ruins introduction jade slips, but none of them give walking instructions. If you want to know how to get out of the Vast Ruins, you still have to purchase an instructional jade slip that is separate from the introduction jade slip.”

Di Jiu mumbled, “Why do they have to separate them?”

“This way, they can earn a bigger sum of divine crystals.” Mo Yejiu felt defeated by Di Jiu’s experience. Theoretically, before entering the Vast Ruins, shouldn’t he have made sure he could find the way out first? As long as he had inquired about the way out, the place selling the jade slips would have recommended the Vast Ruins walking instructional jade slip.

However, he was unaware that Di Jiu cultivated the Nomological Dao and had entered the Vast Ruins to model his Dao. He was not in a hurry to escape, so he had entered the Vast Ruins step by step. No matter how far or how long he walked, he could follow the original path and turn back as long as he wanted to.

Since he was not worried about getting lost, would he still have thought about the way out? According to Di Jiu’s way of thinking, as long as he constantly moved forward, he would reach the second level sooner or later.

Di Jiu was also speechless as he thought about the female cultivator who had sold him the jade slips. She had seemed alright and had even warned him with a few words.

Oh, that’s right. The female cultivator must have not realized that he was going into the Vast Ruins alone because no one did so. As long as he searched for a partner, he would certainly know the way out. It looked like she had been saving some divine crystals on his behalf.

Her kindness had made things go wrong instead.

Mo Yejiu had already taken out a jade slip and handed it to Di Jiu. “Brother Di, as long as you find the location where the fragmented laws are concentrated in the Vast Ruins, you will find the entrance to the second level. The jade slip that I have explains it. You can take it and have a look. There are some places where nomological fragments might appear inside the jade slip.”

“Thank you.” Di Jiu thanked him as he took the jade slip.

Mo Yejiu once again cupped his fists. “If I hadn’t been trapped in here for more than 10 years, I would definitely have accompanied Brother Di to the second level to have a look.”

To be honest, Mo Yejiu had never spoken so much ever since he’d started cultivating. He was not a talkative person and he seldom attended gatherings or any sort of crowded occasion. In his eyes, there was only cultivation and cultivation.

“You’ve been trapped for over 10 years?” Di Jiu subconsciously looked at where Mo Yejiu had been just now. He had seen that array disc of Mo Yejiu’s and, to be honest, even though it was not bad, it definitely could not last more than three months. Di Jiu really did not believe that he had been trapped for over 10 years.

Despite Mo Yejiu’s armor, he could not have lasted more than 10 years.

Mo Yejiu took out a jade talisman and handed it to Di Jiu while saying, “Brother Di, you saved my life. I also feel that you are a straightforward, upright person. This is my identification jade talisman. If you want to find me someday, just bring this jade talisman to the Green Glazed Dao Sect. As long as no Primordial Chaos experts are involved, I, Mo Yejiu, can help with anything.”

After he said that, Mo Yejiu looked at Di Jiu worriedly. He was worried that an expert like Di Jiu would be too proud and scornful to want his things. In fact, he was not taking anything out to protect Di Jiu even though he really wanted to be friends with him.

Since he had very few to no friends, he did not like exaggerating. In fact, even if a Primordial Chaos expert was dealing with Di Jiu, he would still help him.

However, Di Jiu felt great joy. Since he did not think that this would lower his status, he took the jade talisman without hesitation. “Thank you, Brother Mo. Who knows, I might really need your help in the future.”

Mo Yejiu, who was overjoyed upon seeing that, started to become more talkative. “The reason I persisted here for over 10 years is because I have a huge pile of Defense Array discs and attacking array discs on me. The Defense Array disc that you saw earlier was one of the poorer ones I have. The better ones were shattered by those Five-Element Beasts. After they surrounded me, they attacked me repeatedly as if they were mad.”

Di Jiu then understood what a rich second-generation person was. Mo Yejiu was definitely one. He had only relied on array discs to stop hundreds of beasts. That was not right. Perhaps, more than hundreds of Five-Element Beasts had surrounded him for over 10 years. Wasn’t he a rich second-generation person? Since one Defense Array disc was priceless, he wondered how many of them Mo Yejiu had used during over 10 years.

“Brother Di, I’ve delayed too much. I need to go back as soon as possible. Oh, that’s right. There is a Hidden Sacred Dao Discussion Exchange Meeting in the Sacred Dao City. Brother Di, you...” Mo Yejiu cupped his fists before Di Jiu. He was indeed in a hurry to return to the sect. Even though Di Jiu was also considered his friend, he would not say such things normally.

Di Jiu gestured with his hands. “I’m not interested. We’ll meet again soon.”

Since the first level of the Vast Ruins had allowed him to successfully go through his Dao Modeling, he could not go out now. He might be able to improve his cultivation level once again if he went to the second level or even the third level. He was not interested in the Hidden Sacred Exchange Meeting.
