Ninth In the World
Chapter 221 - Humiliation
Panda Novel
Di Jiu understood very clearly. Shu Haolan was a True Form expert, as well as one of the Sect Masters of the five large sects. If he had actually ambushed a weak cultivator like Di Jiu, he had to be very determined to capture him and interrogate him.
What could he do if he escaped now? If he did, he would never be able to get another chance to return to the Everlasting Domain Planet or take revenge. Besides, before his strength increased, he would not even dare show his face.
As the Small Central World was opening up, Di Jiu was still thinking of going there to cultivate till the Ekayāna Tripod Realm after taking revenge on the Everlasting Domain Planet. If he could not show his face and could only move around sneakily, when would he be able to fight against experts like Shu Haolan?
He was considered extremely lucky to have found a place as good as the place at the foot of the snowy mountain.
Besides, it was not like Di Jiu to live his life in secret.
That was why he realized that his only way out was to kill Shu Haolan.
If anyone heard this, they would definitely laugh their heads off. An early-stage Pioneer Sea Realm cultivator would try to kill a Level-Six True Form Realm Sect Master? Plus, Shu Haolan was not just an ordinary Level-Six True Form cultivator. He was one of the True Form Realm’s 36 Kings.
When he saw that Di Jiu did not fall despite being swept by the winds of his palms, Shu Haolan was extremely shocked.
That palm strike could have broken the ribs of a Ekayāna Tripod Realm Cultivator, even though it was just a borderline True Form oppression. What was Di Jiu’s cultivation level? He could not tell at the moment. Di Jiu must have hidden his cultivation level with a top-notch invisibility technique. Let’s say that he was a Void Spirit Realm Cultivator. Could a Void Spirit Realm Cultivator resist the borderline oppression of his True Form palm strike?
Shu Haolan was agitated by the shock he felt. He could imagine that Di Jiu had a big secret. This secret could be associated with the Five Continent Dao Disc.
When Di Jiu escaped into the Herald Night Lake heavily wounded, Shu Haolan chased him without thinking. The thought that Di Jiu could be plotting to ambush him never even crossed his mind.
Given his cultivation, even if he stood still so Di Jiu could ambush him, Di Jiu would still not be able to attack him successfully. So what if the Herald Night Lake would suppress his Spiritual Sea and Spiritual Force? If he was suppressed, Di Jiu would also be suppressed. Even without his Spiritual Force, Di Jiu would still be no match for him.
Di Jiu breathed a silent sigh of relief when he saw Shu Haolan chasing him. His biggest concern was whether Shu Haolan would pursue him or not. If he did not, Di Jiu would have to escape by using an escape technique. Even though the saber array was powerful, his cultivation level was too low. Without the suppression of his Spiritual Force, it should not be able to trap a True Form expert like Shu Haolan.
When he was about 90 meters away from the Herald Night Lake, Di Jiu stopped. He kept vomiting blood, and his whole body felt like it was going to collapse.
Actually, Di Jiu was delighted. Now that his Spiritual Force was at level ten, there was no effect on him at this distance. Even though he projected his Spiritual Force out completely, the compression was very slow. It only demonstrated the power of a level-ten Spiritual Force.
The reason he stopped to vomit blood was because he could see that Shu Haolan would barely make it.
Shu Haolan was at the True Form Level. A True Form cultivator could only go as far as 150 meters away from the Herald Night Lake. Even though Shu Haolan was only 60 meters away from him, these 60 meters seemed like a gigantic gorge.
Shu Haolan saw Di Jiu sprawled out on the floor, vomiting blood. However, he was in bad shape himself. He had not expected that Di Jiu would be able to escape until he was only 90 meters away from the Herald Night Lake.
The Herald Night Lake was a very strange place. The cultivation levels that were the most suitable to go near it were the Essence Soul Realm and the Void Spirit Realm. If one’s cultivation level was too high, it would be more difficult to go near the Herald Night Lake. If it was too low, it would not be suitable to go near this place either. That was why nobody had suspected anything when Di Jiu had said that the Five Continent Dao Disc had been acquired at the Herald Night Lake. The Five Continent Dao Pagoda was the same. Someone with too high or too low cultivation would find it difficult to ascend the pagoda.
That was why Shu Haolan was shocked that Di Jiu could get 90 meters away from the Herald Night Lake. However, he did not find this strange. He was very sure that this distance was Di Jiu’s limit. If he could approach Di Jiu now, he would be able to capture him easily.
If they had been anywhere else, Shu Haolan would have captured Di Jiu with just a True Form Large Handprint from 60 meters away. However, this was the Herald Night Lake. Shu Haolan’s cultivation level was not even one 1,000th of his original cultivation level and it dropped by another level with every step he took in that direction.
A cultivator with just Quintessential Essence and no Spiritual Force was akin to a barbarian.
Di Jiu was sprawled on the floor, seemingly unable to muster the strength to wipe away the blood at the corner of his mouth. His Spiritual Force was waiting for Shu Haolan’s approach. Every step that Shu Haolan took towards him brought him one step closer to death.
150 feet, 140 feet…
Shu Haolan stopped and took an elixir out of his ring. Unfortunately, the elixir dropped on the floor before he could take it.
This place compressed the Spiritual Force of a True Form cultivator to a desperate level. Plus, Shu Haolan’s cultivation was not very strong. He could only pick up the elixir and put it in his mouth. After taking the elixir, he rested for a while and then started moving forward again.
110 feet, 100 feet…
Shu Haolan could not take it anymore. Blood suddenly shot out of his mouth like vomit. He could feel bombing motions in his Spiritual Sea. If he kept moving forward, would he cause his Spiritual Sea to collapse?
Shu Haolan stopped again. Di Jiu was barely turning his head as he struggled to wipe the blood off the corner of his mouth. “I know what you want, Sect Master Shu. I’ll give you the Book of the World. Please let me go just this once…”
“What?” When Shu Haolan heard him mention the Book of the World, he felt like he had just been hit hard by a hammer. An insane heatwave flashed across his eyes.
He had actually found the Book of the World!
“Ha ha ha ha!” Shu Haolan laughed crazily in his mind. He wanted to laugh for real, but he managed to stop himself.
Once he got hold of the Book of the World, who else would dare oppose him in the Small Central World? When he reached the Domain Realm in the future, the True Form Realm would be nothing to him. Even the Fairy World would offer him a spot.
80 feet, 70 feet, 60 feet…
Shu Haolan vomited fresh blood again, and charged out another forty or fifty feet.
Crack! When a sound came from his Spiritual Sea, Shu Haolan was shocked. He was attracted by the Book of the World so much that he had forgotten that he had reached his limit. Now there were cracks in his Spiritual Sea.
Shu Haolan knelt down on one leg and took a deep breath. Di Jiu was not going to escape…
Before Shu Haolan could decide how long he wanted to rest before capturing Di Jiu, Di Jiu stood up suddenly and rushed over to his side like a shadow.
Oh no…
Shu Haolan was a True Form expert after all. Therefore, he knew what Di Jiu was doing at the moment. Even though his Spiritual Sea would break, Shu Haolan did not care anymore. He turned around rapidly and got ready to retreat hastily.
When a Jumbo Footprint moved right towards his face, Shu Haolan sneered. Even though his Spiritual Sea had shattered, if this Void Spirit Realm weakling had dared kick him, he had to be suicidal. Furthermore, Shu Haolan’s Spiritual Sea only had one crack now.
Blood Essence was being burned by Shu Haolan. Even though the crack in his Spiritual Sea was expanding, he still turned rapidly, aiming to retreat before deciding on his next action.
“This is impossible!” Shu Haolan shouted the same words that Ji Hongchuan had when he saw that the Jumbo Footprint was still right in front of his eyes.
This was really impossible! Even though his Spiritual Force was compressed to its limit, he could not have been kicked by a Void Spirit Realm weakling.
Crack! Shu Haolan’s cheekbone cracked. A great force came, causing him to fly towards the Herald Night Lake.
Crack, crack, crack! Even while he was in the air, Shu Haolan could hear his Spiritual Sea popping like popcorn. He spat out blood and stared at Di Jiu, who was just a single step behind. He realized that this was the space law.
That kick had contained space law? How was that possible? How could Di Jiu have contacted space law? That’s right, it was because of the Book of the World. It had to be because of it.
Shu Haolan kept twisting his body vigorously even while he was in the air. Even though his Spiritual Sea had shattered, he would still not get killed by a Void Spirit Realm weakling.
Shu Haolan stopped himself in mid-air. His lifespan was shortening at this point, so he needed to leave the Herald Night Lake immediately. Being forced into this situation by a Void Spirit Realm weakling was humiliating.
Suddenly, sounds of slashing Saber Qi were transmitted through the air. Shu Haolan was completely stunned when he looked up.
Thousands of sabers formed a huge array that moved towards him. If he continued to move away from the Herald Night Lake, he would definitely get ripped to shreds by these sabers.
Without a Spiritual Force, no matter how powerful he was, he would not be able to avoid getting killed by this saber array.
A feeling of despair overwhelmed Shu Haolan. However, he could not take this lying down.
Suddenly, he heard Di Jiu’s voice. “Get back there!”
As the Jumbo Footprint landed on his face again, humiliation filled his heart. Shu Haolan vomited blood. He might become the only True Form cultivator to be killed by a weakling at the Void Spirit Realm.
Bam! The force of the Jumbo Footprint moved Shu Haolan into the Herald Night Lake.
Shu Haolan, who knew that he would definitely die, did not beg for mercy. He knew very well that Di Jiu would never let him off, so why get even more humiliated? He had been humiliated enough before his death.
Splash! When Shu Haolan fell into the Herald Night Lake, the sounds filled him with a feeling of fear that was followed by never-ending darkness.
