Chapter 586: Acquaintance From the Wormhole

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Monarch Li Tu evidently took no heed of the few cultivators gossiping about him. He swiftly entered an elixir pill store.

Thinking back on how he had offended several apex experts when he had just arrived in the Dao World, Di Jiu only felt resignation. Zhong You and Jiang Dai probably did not know who he was. As for Xu Baishang, he had saved this bastard but offended the latter as well.

Regardless of whether the Void Mountain belonged to Xu Baishang’s family, Xu Baishang would definitely not let him off if he knew that he had taken away the Void Mountain. Xu Baishang left one drop of Blood Essence on him so that self-conceited fellow would certainly not know that Di Jiu had come to the Dao World if he did not take that Blood Essence drop out.

As for Zhong You, the River and Mountain Kettle belonged to the bastard. However, that kettle was considered the Lunar Forsaken Tomb by the cultivators in the Four Major Immortal Continents. Many of them were in the Lunar Forsaken Tomb for a trial. Would Zhong You release his anger on the Four Major Immortal Continents once he discovered that both the Sacred Yin Pearl and Zhong Ao had disappeared?

Regardless of this, Di Jiu decided to increase his cultivation first. He could not try finding Zhong You if he had yet to attain the second step.

Di Jiu was about to turn around and leave when a slightly hesitant voice called out, “Brother Zimo...”

Di Jiu was alarmed. Who could know that his name was Zimo? Upon turning around, he saw a familiar face. While hastily cupping his fists, he asked, “Brother Kan, you have left the Wormhole?”

The tanned beardless young man before him was Kan Yiwei, who he had met in the Wormhole Defense District. Back when he had killed the worms so skillfully, Kan Yiwei had been standing the closest to him and had approached him to befriend him.

What surprised Di Jiu was not that Kan Yiwei had left the Wormhole, but that he had left the Leaping Dao Door Divine City. After all, Di Jiu himself had relied on half a Dao meridian to be allowed to exit the Leaping Dao Door Divine City.

“It is really you, Brother Zimo.” Kan Yiwei was extremely pleased. “I knew that you would be alright and I was right.”

Di Jiu tugged at Kan Yiwei to stop him from saying anything else. “This is not a good place to chat. Let’s move to another location.”

Two hours later, Di Jiu had found a cave abode in an inn located at the edges of the Elixir River Square.

“Brother Kan, how did you manage to come here?” This was the very first question Di Jiu asked. He was puzzled as to how it was possible for one to leave the Leaping Dao Door Divine City so effortlessly.

Even now, Di Jiu still could not fully comprehend why the Leaping Dao Door Divine City was used to confine some of the ascended cultivators. In his opinion, the truly powerful cultivators of the Dao World were not born and raised in the Dao World. Instead, it was the cultivators who ascended to the Dao World. These cultivators rose up from hundreds of millions of cultivators and were all geniuses in their own right.

Cultivators from the Dao World started using the Divine Spirit Qi and divine crystals to cultivate from a young age. Furthermore, the Heaven Earth Law in the Dao World was far superior to that of the Cultivation World and the Immortal World and it was highly suitable to gain insight into the Dao. Before attaining the Dao Modeling, leveling up was as effortless as breathing. Such a cultivating method was indeed easy, but these cultivators failed to possess the strength and fortitude of the ascended cultivators.

Kan Yiwei sighed and explained, “I was lucky to kill an ordinary worm which unexpectedly had a Sightless Void Worm egg in its stomach...”

Then, he began to say animatedly, “This kind of worm egg is a priceless treasure. I obtained the opportunity to enter the Leaping Dao Door Divine City and was able to leave the divine city when I wanted.”

“Congratulations, Brother Kan.” Di Jiu was impressed by Kan Yiwei’s luck.

“Brother Zimo, I heard that you left the Leaping Dao Door Divine City by relying on a Dao meridian.” Kan Yiwei was even more impressed with Di Jiu, as he knew what had happened to him. Di Jiu had just left and immediately someone had come over to investigate him, thus causing complete upheaval at the Murderous Dao Lake.

Anyone who entered the Murderous Dao Lake would die, yet Di Jiu was completely unaffected. Instead, he had also become the first in rank on the Wormhole contribution point roll within a year and had entered the Leaping Dao Door Divine City.

Everyone, no matter how formidable they were, would be trapped within the Leaping Dao Door Divine City. However, Brother Zimo had left the Leaping Dao Door Divine City without even spending a full day in the city.

This was true strength. Kan Yiwei had heard that Di Jiu had brought Zhuo Wujia along when he had left the city. At the time, he had regretted getting to know Di Jiu too late and not actively befriending him promptly. Otherwise, Di Jiu might have taken him along upon leaving. It was fortunate that he had been able to leave the Wormhole Defense District after staying for a few more years.

Di Jiu cupped his fists and said, “Brother Kan, my name is Di Jiu now, and I have joined the First Evolution Dao Sect. May I ask who investigated me after I left?”

Kan Yiwei was even more impressed upon hearing that Di Jiu had joined the First Evolution Dao Sect. He had zero intention of helping Ni Xiren and Sha Wushang conceal any information, so he narrated everything he knew to Di Jiu.

Di Jiu understood that Sha Wushang and the heptagonal Dao Seed truly were related. Fortunately, he had decisively left the Frosty Moon Sacred Dao City. If he had chosen to participate in the auction and had extended his stay in the Frosty Moon Sacred Dao City, he would most likely have been killed by Sha Wushang.

“Thank you, Brother Kan.” Di Jiu thanked him sincerely. He was truly grateful, as he understood just how dangerous his current predicament was.

It seemed that he could not go out anymore. This place was the Elixir River Tournament. It would be terrible if Ni Xiren and Sha Wushang came here and saw him.

“Brother Di, I have always respected you and it just so happened that I knew about this. It is not a big deal.” Kan Yiwei insisted hastily.

Di Jiu fell silent for a short while before saying, “Brother Kan, I am currently an outer sect disciple of the First Evolution Dao Sect. If you wish to join the same sect as well, perhaps I could help you out a little. Being an outer sect disciple is good enough, even though it does not allow you to enter the inner sect directly.”

“Ah...” Kan Yiwei stared at Di Jiu in excitement and shock. However, he quickly regained his senses and hurriedly stood up. With cupped fists, he replied, “Thank you, Brother Di. If I could really join the First Evolution Dao Sect, it would be...”

After entering the Dao World, he could only become an Itinerant Cultivator. If he wished to become a disciple of one of the top-notch major sects aptitude-wise, he would have to wait for the recruitment period of these sects so that he could register and go take the test. His aptitude was quite good considering that he had been able to ascend to the Dao World.

However, the universe was boundless and many people possessed good aptitude as well. The competition was tough even when it came to joining the outer sect of the First Evolution Dao Sect. Moreover, no one knew when the First Evolution Dao Sect would be recruiting disciples.

Perhaps some people would say that joining a slightly smaller sect was the same. This was not true, however. The reason the Five Major Sects of the Dao World could precede the other sects was because of their heritage, which was far more superior than that of the other sects.

Once one joined the First Evolution Dao Sect, they would most likely obtain a heritage that was more powerful than that of the other sects. This would be extremely beneficial to one’s Dao journey.

Being an outer sect disciple was nothing, for so long as one worked hard, one would become an inner sect disciple sooner or later.

...

Kan Yiwei left feeling satisfied after speaking with Di Jiu for a long while. Di Jiu was not surprised to see Kan Yiwei here. After all, the Dao World’s Elixir River Tournament was a big event and Kan Yiwei would definitely want to expand his horizons after learning about the tournament. He would want to see if he was able to gain anything as a result, which was why he had come here.

Di Jiu knew that Kan Yiwei was someone with great luck as well judging by the very fact that he had obtained a Sightless Void Worm and managed to come to the Dao World directly.

He was not worried that he would be unable to help Kan Yiwei join the First Evolution Dao Sect. After all, he owned many Stacked Partition Herbs and could just give some to him. He would not be able to give too many, as one only needed to hand in 10 Stacked Partition Herbs to become an outer sect disciple. No one should investigate this matter.

Two days passed in a flash. That day, the message that the time of the competition had arrived appeared on Di Jiu’s competition jade card. Then, Kan Yiwei knocked on the door’s restriction.

Upon seeing Di Jiu open the restriction, Kan Yiwei said excitedly, “Brother Di, today marks the start of the Dao World’s Elixir River Tournament. Let’s head over and watch the competition.”

Di Jiu waved the competition jade card in his hand and said, “Brother Kan, I am the representative alchemist of the First Evolution Dao Sect. Hence, I need to head over.”

“Ah...” Kan Yiwei was once again stunned by Di Jiu’s action.

Wasn’t the First Evolution Dao Sect one of the Five Major Sects of the Dao World? Why was Di Jiu, an outer sect disciple, allowed to enter a competition of this caliber? Surely, the First Evolution Dao Sect had not dropped to this level.

“Don’t overthink it. I am heading over to participate in the competition now. Wait for me outside and watch the competition from there. We will talk more about you entering the First Evolution Dao Sect when the competition is over.” Di Jiu clapped Kan Yiwei on the shoulder and walked out of the cave abode.
