Chapter 606: The Supreme-Grade Dao Meridian

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

At the moment, Di Jiu already stood in the middle of the lake but his entire body was not submerged in the lake. Endless spirit currents permeated his body and changed his physical body, muscles, and bones. Even his blood was slowly being changed.

This Body-Tempering Lake was definitely a top-notch place. As he wondered whether to take away the Body-Tempering Lake, he realized that the more he circulated the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art, the weaker the spirit current in the Body-Tempering Lake became.

Di Jiu could immediately sense that there was a limit to the spirit current in the Body-Tempering Lake. Since he had now entered the lake and absorbed it very quickly, he had caused this spirit current, which could change one’s physical body, muscles, and bones, to weaken.

Di Jiu was not the only one to meet this problem. The other cultivators did as well. They could clearly sense that after Di Jiu had come in, the Body-Tempering Lake’s effects had weakened and they kept getting weaker and weaker.

Nobody dared to provoke Di Jiu. Some cultivators would rather leave the Body-Tempering Lake, so they quickly left.

It was because Di Jiu was so powerful. If they could bear to leave the Body-Tempering Lake, they would have done so earlier. Since the Body-Tempering Lake had weakened now, what was the point of staying there?

Di Jiu, who had also stopped cultivating, had seen what was going on. There was a pearl that was about to disperse under his feet. The reason that the Body-Tempering Lake could change a cultivator’s Tempered Body, blood, muscles, bones, and meridians was because of this pearl. With his addition to the lake, the lake kept becoming smaller and smaller. As a result, the lake was gradually going to become useless.

As Di Jiu was about to take out the remaining pearl scraps to have a look, they vanished.

Although this was somewhat regrettable, Di Jiu did not mind. He had obtained what he should have. Regardless of the Nirvana Black Metal Stone or the inside of the Body-Tempering Lake, he had gained a lot.

When Di Jiu rushed to the lake, he realized that only Yu Qianxi was left there. The remaining cultivators had completely left.

Di Jiu trembled slightly and the moisture on his body vanished without a trace.

Yu Qianxi then walked over and told Di Jiu with a bow, “Vast Pure Sacred Sect’s disciple Yu Qianxi greets you, Senior Brother Di.”

Di Jiu returned the bow. He did not want to get involved with these major sects’ core disciples. Although Yu Qianxi did not seem old, she was clearly a core disciple with a high aptitude after reaching the perfected Dao Modeling.

Yu Qianxi could clearly see that Di Jiu was not very enthusiastic with her but she still said, “I am friends with Green Glazed Dao Sect’s Senior Brother Mo. During the last Hidden Sacred Dao Discussion Exchange Meeting, I met Senior Brother Mo. He said that a true expert might not necessarily go to the Hidden Sacred Dao Discussion Exchange Meeting. I did not believe him at the time. However, I know that it’s actually true now.”

Yu Qianxi was very clever. Back then, Mo Yejiu had mentioned that Bai Changyi was not the person with the strongest survival capability in the Vast Ruins but he had not mentioned that a true expert would not go to the Hidden Sacred Dao Discussion Exchange Meeting. Nevertheless, she had sensed this in his eyes and attitude. Although Mo Yejiu disapproved of the Hidden Sacred Dao Discussion Exchange Meeting, he still went there for the sake of completing his mission.

Why did he disapprove? He had clearly met an even stronger genius than those at the Hidden Sacred Exchange Meeting.

After hearing Mo Yejiu’s name, Di Jiu nodded. He had not had many interactions with Mo Yejiu but he had saved him back then. Still, Di Jiu had always believed that Mo Yejiu was a friend worth making. As for the Hidden Sacred Exchange Meeting, Di Jiu did not know or care to ask. He did not mind these things at all.

“Senior Brother Di, I stayed here because I have to cooperate with you...” Before Yu Qianxi could finish, she saw that lightning bird use its beak to constantly tug at Di Jiu’s clothes.

Di Jiu’s gaze landed on Lightning. He had no intention of letting it become his beast companion, so he did not know what it was thinking.

However, Lightning was clever. When it saw Di Jiu paying attention to it, it immediately used its beak to point to the Body-Tempering Lake, which had lost its body-tempering function.

Di Jiu immediately understood. The lightning bird meant that there was still something good in the Body-Tempering Lake.

Di Jiu once again stepped into the Body-Tempering Lake without hesitation and his Spiritual Force permeated the entire lake.

It was like the previous time. There were all kinds of materials to refine. These things might be precious in the Immortal World but were more like trash in the eyes of the cultivators in the Dao World.

Actually, that was not right. If that was all, the Lightning would not have called him over to enter the lake again by using its insight.

When he thought of this, Di Jiu immediately drew his Heavenly Aqua Saber and struck.

Boom! The water in the Body-Tempering Lake was split into two. The bottom of the lake was also split apart by Di Jiu’s saber move and rich Divine Spirit Qi burst out.

“The Dao meridian!” Yu Qianxi, who was standing at the side of the lake, shouted out in disbelief. Di Jiu was also elated. He had always wanted to search for the Dao meridian and had not expected to really find one.

Di Jiu, who did not care about being polite, threw array flags down. This Dao meridian, which was thousands of feet long, was swept away by Di Jiu and sent directly into his Ninth World. Now that Yu Qianxi was here, there was nothing Di Jiu could say. When he was alone again, he would place this Dao meridian beside the Creation Wood.

“Congratulations, Senior Brother Di.” Yu Qianxi envied Di Jiu. She could see that this Dao meridian was of a higher grade than their sect’s high-grade Dao meridian. This also meant that this was very likely a supreme-grade Dao meridian.

At the same time, she knew very well that if Di Jiu’s Dao meridian was revealed, endless people would probably chase after him right away.

“Thank you.” Di Jiu was very satisfied deep down, so there was a hint of excitement in his tone.

Back then, Xu Baishang had given him a low-grade Dao meridian at best. Di Jiu was sure that this was a supreme-grade Dao meridian, as he could sense it the moment he took it out.

A supreme-grade Dao meridian was very good news both for him and the Creation Wood.

“Not bad. Follow me from now on.” Di Jiu patted Lightning’s head. It had contributed twice. If it was not for Lightning the first time, he could not have perfected his Reincarnation Wooden Bridge or gone through his Dao Birth successfully. How could he have changed his flesh and blood and obtained the Nirvana Black Metal Stone without it the second time? These things aside, he had also obtained a complete Dao meridian, which he had wanted the most.

“Junior Sister Yu, I’m leaving. We’ll meet again.” Di Jiu could not wait to analyze the Dao meridian.

Yu Qianxi hurriedly stopped him and responded, “Senior Brother Di, I really want to invite you to the Vast Ruins.”

“I’m sorry. I don’t have any intention of going there now.” Di Jiu apologized.

He had just come back from the Vast Ruins. Even if he wanted to go there once again, it would only be after his cultivation level reached the late-stage Dao Transformation.

Di Jiu did not know how strong his combat power was now. He had purposely let Piao Hui use the spatial domain to lock him previously because he had wanted to see how far he could go with a Dao Birth cultivator. He had not expected that Piao Hui would be too poor and he would not get anything out of him.

If Di Jiu could do that, he indeed had the qualifications to face a second-step expert. If he had been unable to win and escape, he would not have done things so secretively.

“Senior Brother Di, I know you just came from the Vast Ruins. If you listen to me and still don’t want to go, I won’t say anything else.” Yu Qianxi glanced at Di Jiu, sounding very sincere.

Di Jiu could only reply, “Tell me.”

Even though she knew that nobody else would come, Yu Qianxi still set up a noise isolation restriction. “Senior Brother Di, on the third level of the Vast Ruins is a Dao fruit forest with many Dao fruit trees. Those Dao fruit trees have been there for many years, and the Dao fruits on those trees are worth an inestimable price...”

Di Jiu stared at Yu Qianxi in a daze. There were Dao fruit trees in the Vast Ruins? Shouldn’t it be hard for a Dao fruit tree to survive in the Vast Ruins?

If there were really Dao fruit trees, Di Jiu had to go. Why were there so few Alchemy Deities and Alchemy Saints in the Dao World? Because there were not many Dao fruits in the Dao World. An Alchemy Saint was an Alchemy Master who could refine Dao pills. If there were no Dao fruits, how could they become an Alchemy Saint? How could they refine Dao pills?

Upon seeing Di Jiu’s doubts clearly, Yu Qianxi added, “What I said is true. Only I know about this.”

Di Jiu calmed down and asked as he looked at her, “Junior Sister Yu, I’m only an Itinerant Cultivator. I’m not close to you. Why do you want to team up with me? I think many experts are more powerful than me in the Vast Pure Sacred Sect that you come from. Isn’t that right?”

Yu Qianxi bowed before Di Jiu. “Senior Brother Mo mentioned that you are the cultivator with the strongest survival capability in the Vast Ruins. That’s why I came to find you. It’s just that I didn’t know who you were all along. Now, I’m even more sure that you are the person I’m looking for. If I have to state a reason, I have two of them. First, we are both first-step cultivators. Second, another cultivator would certainly have silenced me immediately after obtaining the Dao meridian. However, you didn’t kill me. I did not even sense any killing intent. Therefore, I think that you are the friend who is most worthy of teaming up with me.”

There was something else that Yu Qianxi would not say. No matter how strong Di Jiu’s cultivation level was, if a first-step cultivator wanted to kill her but failed, she would have sufficient techniques to escape.
