Ninth In the World

Although Na Di’an’s suggestion was not perfect, no one else could make a better suggestion in the discussion hall of the Dragon Clan.

In the end, under the lead of Ao Kui, everyone perfected this plan. Then, they would return to their clans and unite the Array Dao experts. At the same time, they would collect top-notch array flag materials.

The discussion hall of the Dragon Clan was situated in the inner Defense Array. Unlike the inner Defense Array, they could not enter the outer Defense Array just by greeting.

Di Jiu was stopped outside the inner Defense Array by two guards. There were two ways for him to enter. He could either take out the invitation of the Dragon Clan or find a guarantor who was at the Hundred Clan Conference.

When Di Jiu was about to mention Tang Xitan, he heard a burst of dins. Without hesitation, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force broke open the isolation restriction and he immediately saw Tang Xitan being stopped by two men. Hundreds of cultivators watched, but none of them came forward to speak.

“Move aside.” Di Jiu did not bother talking to the two guards. He raised his hands, grabbing and tossing them aside before he rushed in.

“This item is useful to the Heavenly Purification Clan. You’re a mere early-stage Primordial Chaos expert who does not have a wood element. It would be a waste if you had it. Besides, now that the crisis of our realm is approaching, I have a chance to do something for the realm after taking it with me. Thus, you have to give it to me,” said the Heavenly Purification Clan’s Xiang Mu.

At that moment, Xiang Mu no longer concealed his aura, which shrouded Tang Beiwei and Tang Xitan. Ji Lie stood beside Xiang Mu. Evidently, as long as Tang Xitan dared to help Tang Beiwei, he would not hesitate to attack her.

As for the rest, no one stepped forward, or perhaps, no one dared to step forward.

Ao Kui wanted to say something, but he recalled that both Xiang Mu and Ji Lie were late-stage Primordial Chaos experts while Tang Xitan and Tang Beiwei were both early-stage Primordial Chaos experts. Ever since the opening of the Teleportation Array of the Sacred Dao World and Heaven’s Beyond, very few top-notch experts of the Sacred Dao World had stayed on, as all of them had basically gone to Heaven’s Beyond.

No matter how dumb he was, he knew he could not help Tang Beiwei and Tang Xitan.

Besides, Ao Chi, the top-notch expert of the Dragon Clan, had died because of Ye Mo. The Dragon Clan did not dare say anything regarding this feud. However, he would not put himself down to help Ye Mo’s younger sister, Tang Beiwei.

No matter how strong Tang Beiwei’s cultivation techniques were, she was still inferior to Xiang Mu in terms of strength. Furthermore, his actual combat power was much stronger than hers. When his domain completely suppressed hers, Tang Beiwei involuntarily took several steps back. Then, she was once again suppressed by the domain and the entire space was reduced to a slit.

Tang Beiwei hooted slightly and her Primordial Chaos domain also surged, reducing half of the constrained space instantly.

Amazement filled Xiang Mu’s eyes. In the hall, Tang Beiwei’s domain had only been a little weaker than his earlier. He believed that since he had not made a move with all his might and only did so now, Tang Beiwei still had not been completely suppressed. Even against his Primordial Chaos domain, she still had the strength to resist.

When Xiang Mu was about to continue crushing her and make a move, an abrupt voice was heard. “Old bark, my friend will not give you her item. What can you do about it?”

Upon hearing this voice, Tang Xitan was really happy. She knew that Di Jiu was here.

Fan Yuan and Ma Jujia subconsciously took a few steps back. They knew his aura very well. Compared to a few years ago, his strength had risen a lot.

“You’re courting death.” Xiang Mu had not expected anyone to dare to call him old bark so he immediately became furious. He raised his hand and grabbed Di Jiu.

As someone from the Heavenly Purification Clan, he possessed a natural intuition to sense the approximate age and cultivation of the other party. Di Jiu’s young age was terrifying, and his cultivation was definitely not at the Primordial Chaos Realm.

A mere nobody who had yet to attain the Primordial Chaos Realm had dared act so arrogantly before him? Did he have a death wish?

Without hesitation, Di Jiu’s Sky Screen Saber Move turned into a saber screen that was hundreds of thousands of feet and tore down. A rattling sound erupted in this space and all the protective and defensive arrays were torn apart by this saber screen. The hall where the 100 clans had held a conference earlier was reduced into fine powder by this Sky Screen Saber Move.

Di Jiu naturally did not care about the hall of the Dragon Clan. Just now, Tang Xitan had been bullied by Xiang Mu, and no one from the Dragon Clan had seemed to step forward. In that case, why would he still need to be polite? If the Dragon Clan wanted to make a move, then they could bring it on.

Crack! Before the Heavenly Aqua Saber’s saber screen divine power had fully condensed into a form, Xiang Mu’s handprint was torn to pieces by this saber move.

Xiang Mu was scared out of his wits. How was he a Primordial Dao nobody? He was simply a top-notch Primordial Chaos almighty. At that moment, he did not dare look down on Di Jiu. He drew out a Heavenly Dimension Ruler that turned into huge trees that were hundreds of thousands of feet and swept down.

As the huge trees formed, their domain completely overlapped with Xiang Mu’s domain, forming layers. Even a peak Primordial Chaos expert would not dare say that their domain was stronger than this.

Ji Lie, who was standing aside, was also shocked by Di Jiu. He had not expected Di Jiu to force Xiang Mu to give it his all. Although this divine power of Xiang Mu had been used in a hurry, it was not weak.

After Xiang Mu’s Heavenly Dimension Ruler had completely shrouded this space, a hint of a sneer appeared at the corners of Ji Lie’s mouth. Di Jiu really did not know his place. Even if he wanted to win over Xiang Mu, he would have to make a great effort. How dare a mere young cultivator act so arrogantly out of nowhere?

Even if Xiang Mu could not kill him this time, Ao Kui would not let Di Jiu off. How dare he take out his saber in the Dragon Clan and wreck their hall? This was simply suicide. The Dragon Clan had always been a strong top-notch clan, maybe even a little stronger than the Devil Clan.

Boom! Crack… The Heavenly Aqua Saber’s saber screen struck the huge trees of Xiang Mu’s Heavenly Dimension Ruler, producing an ear-piercing sound.

Xiang Mu realized in horror that Di Jiu had ripped apart his Heavenly Dimension Ruler’s huge trees into two with only one saber move.

Xiang Mu’s layered domain shattered. At first, his domain had been weaker than Di Jiu’s domain. However, when his layered domain shattered, Di Jiu’s domain suppressed Xiang Mu’s Primordial Chaos domain.

Even now, Xiang Mu wanted to exert a stronger divine power. Unfortunately, under the suppression of Di Jiu’s strong domain, he could not do anything.

Pfft! The area between his eyebrows was assailed by the saber, causing a blood arrow to explode. Xiang Mu saw the saber screen sweep over and his forehead broke out in cold sweat. Due to this saber screen, his space became so much thicker that he had a hard time moving. This was exactly the way he’d wanted to deal with Tang Beiwei before. It took him only a few seconds to deal with him.

A bloody mist exploded between his eyebrows. Xiang Mu was relieved that Di Jiu’s Heavenly Aqua Saber had stopped between his eyebrows and had not ripped his face apart. Before he could say anything, a huge hand pinched his neck, lifting him up in the air.

“Do you want to snatch my friend’s item, old bark?” Di Jiu said disdainfully as he lifted Xiang Mu. He did not know what Xiang Mu wanted to snatch, and Tang Xitan still had something to say. Otherwise, he would have killed Xiang Mu with that saber move.

“Friend, this is a misunderstanding. A misunderstanding!” Xiang Mu’s neck was pinched by Di Jiu, but he managed to squeeze some words out of his throat.

“A misunderstanding? He he… No member of the Heavenly Purification Clan is good. I previously killed Guang Mingzi, who was also a piece of trash.” Di Jiu chuckled without showing mercy.

Guang Mingzi had been killed by the killer before him? He trembled deep down. Previously, he had asked Tang Xitan to inquire about Guang Mingzi’s whereabouts. If he had known that Guang Mingzi had been killed by Di Jiu, maybe he would not even have attended the auction and would have gone directly to find Di Jiu and kill him.

He now knew how strong this cultivator, who had killed Guang Mingzi, was. He was strong beyond reasonable limits. Revenge! He he… He did not even know whether he could save his life now.

He experienced numbness in his scalp, and his rigid mind constantly came up with all sorts of ideas as he kept trying to find a way to save himself.

Ji Lie was completely stunned. How could the Human Clan have such a terrifying presence? He was sure that Di Jiu was a cultivator of the Human Clan. Absolutely!
