Ninth In the World

Di Jiu was silent. He had heard of how formidable Jiang Dai was and personally seen it. However, in Xu Baishang’s eyes, Jiang Dai was still inferior to Di Xinren. This world did not lack geniuses in the least.

The place Xu Baishang had mentioned was very far. Even though they were using a high-grade flying boat and Xu Baishang drove it with all his might, they only stopped after flying for half a year.

Xu Baishang stopped somewhere that looked the same as the other voids. If one had to point out a difference, it would be that the Heaven Earth Law in this void was fuzzier than in the other places.

Di Jiu cultivated the Nomological Dao of the universe, so he naturally could sense that. He was puzzled over how Xu Baishang knew that the realm here was weak.

“Brother Xu, how did you know that the realm here would be weaker?” Di Jiu, who was puzzled, looked at Xu Baishang.

Xu Baishang laughed. “The Xu Family has a Dharma treasure that can find the place with the weakest void in the realm.”

Xu Baishang only explained slightly before he changed the subject. “Brother Di, when I activate the Plane Split Talisman, you will draw out the Void Mountain and strike it with all your strength.”

Xu Baishang did not wait for Di Jiu to answer. He immediately took out a talisman circulating with Dao runes. At the same time, he activated this talisman.

Di Jiu knew very well what Xu Baishang meant. This fellow wanted to make sure that the Void Mountain was not with him. In that case, he supposed that Xu Baishang might go back to have a look.

After the talisman was activated, the laws on the Dao runes started circulating at a great speed so even Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force could not permeate the talisman. In just a few seconds, a terrifying splitting sound exploded, followed by endless Dao runes striking on the void. The void that could not be touched suddenly became much clearer due to the Dao patterns of this talisman.

This was definitely a Plane Split Divine Talisman at level seven or above. Di Jiu was silently shocked that Xu Baishang could take out such a talisman. He really had not known what kind of advantage this fellow had. He immediately thought of Jiang Dai. That bastard could bury nine supreme-grade Dao meridians under the Dai He Hall and the Yin-Yang Taijitu, which showed that he had discovered a top-notch treasure ground.

There were too many good things in the vast universe. Hadn’t he also obtained the Ninth Dao Law and the Book of the World?

The roar of the Dao runes exploded and some cracks that were hard to sense by sight appeared in the void.

Xu Baishang hurriedly hollered, “Brother Di, hurry up and draw out the Void Mountain…”

Di Jiu did not draw out the Void Mountain. Without hesitation, he took out his Heavenly Aqua Saber and struck with one saber move amid the circulation of the Dao runes.

He gained insight into the shattered laws of this void. Other people might not have been able to tear the void after this crack. However, Di Jiu was very confident that he could tear it apart.

This was his Wind-Rustling Move, but this saber move had a grasp of his Gathering Peaks and Furious Waves’ divine power. Apart from that, there was also a kind of suppressing law.

“You need the Void Mountain. Without it, you definitely cannot tear it apart…” When Xu Baishang saw that Di Jiu had not drawn out the Void Mountain but the Heavenly Aqua Saber, he immediately yelled in shock and anger.

Di Jiu sneered. Even though he was not very confident about tearing apart this place, he would not reveal that he had the Void Mountain on him to Xu Baishang. At least, not for now.

Before he reached the second step, Di Jiu would not do that. Once he revealed that he had the Void Mountain, he would also very likely reveal his Ninth World or even his Nomological Dao.

An Immortal Emperor could refine the Void Mountain? Di Jiu currently did not believe that, let alone Jiang Dai. In fact, he had not managed to refine it at the time even though he had obtained the white jade stone tablet.

Since he could not refine the Void Mountain, why would it still be in his possession? The only possibility was that he had taken away the Void Mountain at the time. Everyone knew what could take away the Void Mountain. It was the Five-Element World that surpassed the Quintessential World or something even stronger than that. His Array Dao was good, and the Void Mountain knew that. If he had a world that surpassed the Five-Element World, he could completely take away the Void Mountain by shifting the arrays.

A hint of despair flashed through Xu Baishang’s heart. He had not expected that he would waste a top-notch talisman and not sound out whether Di Jiu had the Void Mountain.

A saber aura that pressed forward swept over and struck the void with a crack of the talisman. The crack then instantly widened and opened.

The first saber aura was not fully strong yet, but the second and third saber auras caught up. As a result, that void crack became wider and wider.

Boom! Crack…

The crack in the void was finally torn open five feet wide. Xu Baishang stared blankly at this sight and did not say anything for a long while.

This saber move of Di Jiu’s could really tear apart the traces of the void cracks left behind by his Plane Split Talisman. Was Di Jiu really so powerful?

“Brother Xu, let’s hurry up and leave this place. Otherwise, we won’t make it in time…” Di Jiu could not be polite. When the Void Realm was torn apart by his Heavenly Aqua Saber, he extended his body and rushed over.

Xu Baishang watched the void crack gradually shrink but could not move. Since Di Jiu had not taken out the Void Mountain, did that mean that he really did not have the Void Mountain?

Crack! The void crack once again disappeared, but Xu Baishang calmed down.

At the moment, he thought that if the Void Mountain was really not with Di Jiu, then it would definitely be between the two realms. In that case, if he followed Di Jiu to another realm, when would he come back to take the Void Mountain?

Nothing was more important than the Void Mountain to him.

When he thought of this, Xu Baishang clenched his fists tightly. He had to make a trip between the two realms. He now believed that Di Jiu most likely did not have the Void Mountain.

Previously, he had been confused. If the Void Mountain had been so easy to obtain, he would not have been trapped for so many years. Even though he was trapped, how many of the experts who had snatched his Void Mountain were still alive? Di Jiu was lucky to be able to come out from the space between the two realms. What right did he have to obtain the Void Mountain?

Xu Baishang resolutely turned around and quickly left.

…

Once Di Jiu came out of the Void Realm that had been torn apart, he frowned a little. He sensed very clearly that the void he was in was similar to the void he had come from. In other words, the Heaven Earth Law here was similar to the place he had come from.

Since they were similar, why were there so many Dao Integration and third-step experts here?

When Xu Baishang came over, he would ask him.

However, Di Jiu very soon realized that Xu Baishang would not come over because the crack in that void had disappeared without any trace of Xu Baishang. If Xu Baishang wanted to come over, he would need to use another Plane Split Talisman. Even if he used a similar talisman, without his Heavenly Aqua Saber, he could not tear apart the realm here. Not everyone had a thorough understanding of the Heaven Earth Law like Di Jiu.

What did Xu Baishang mean by this? After waiting and flying in the void with Di Jiu for so many years, he had wasted a top-notch Plane Split Talisman for the sake of sending Di Jiu to the Void City?

Had Xu Baishang become so unconstrained and generous? Di Jiu was very puzzled, as this was not possible.

He did not think for long before he understood what Xu Baishang meant. He believed that Xu Baishang had most likely changed his mind at the last minute for one reason: the Void Mountain.

Xu Baishang had somewhat suspected that Di Jiu did not have the Void Mountain and that it was between the two realms. Therefore, he was like Jiang Dai. Even though he’d wasted one talisman, he had to go back to reclaim his Void Mountain.

Unfortunately, Xu Baishang would make a pointless trip this time. Di Jiu had refined the Void Mountain long ago and it was currently in his Spiritual Sea.

Di Jiu did not care about Xu Baishang anymore. He took out the flying boat and called out Lightning and Ding Chi.
