Ninth in The World - Chapter 606

Chapter 606: 606

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 .
