Ninth In the World

Panda Novel

Ling Xiaoshuang had somewhat understood. She had seen many experts other than Di Jiu. The most top-notch expert had reached the third step and gone through Colossal Degeneration. All these things were considered great wealth and opportunities for a cultivator.

Now that Di Jiu had asked, Ling Xiaoshuang did not hesitate. “Before I reached Dao Integration, I met a top-notch expert who went through the third-step Colossal Degeneration. At the time, his blood had dyed half the planet red. Even though he went through Colossal Degeneration in a coma, the majestic aura of the vast Heaven Earth Dao aura shocked me. I think the reason my Dao Integration is so much stronger than that of Jiu You is that he was affected by me at the time.”

Di Jiu was immediately moved. Was there such an expert? Ever since he had started cultivating, he was still a nobody. If there was a difference, he was just a slightly stronger nobody.

Upon seeing that Di Jiu was shocked, Ling Xiaoshuang said apologetically, “Big Brother Di, unfortunately, I don’t have the crystal ball. I can capture the trace of Dao rune aura, but I can’t even talk about those Dao runes even if you want me to.”

Di Jiu’s current cultivation level and strength were not as good as Ling Xiaoshuang’s. However, his understanding of the Dao was not any weaker than hers or much stronger. As a result, he understood what Ling Xiaoshuang meant very well. If Ling Xiaoshuang could articulate this kind of Dao clearly, then she would not have been an ordinary Dao Integration expert.

When it came to a thing such as the Dao, one either understood it or not. To make it clear, that was definitely the Supreme Daoist.

Di Jiu replied, “I understand. I plan to leave now. Xiaoshuang, we’ll meet again soon.”

Since he had gotten the Sun Core, his priority now was to advance his flame and then his Blacksmith Dao.

“Big Brother Di, please wait…” Ling Xiaoshuang immediately began to break the restriction on her ring.

This ring had originally been a Quintessential World of hers. Even though Jiu You had taken it away and she had taken it back now, she very quickly opened it.

After opening the ring, Ling Xiaoshuang immediately took out a communication pearl. “Big Brother Di, we’ll contact each other. When I go to the Chaos Realm in the future, I’ll invite you to come along.”

Di Jiu wanted to go to the Chaos Realm. Although Ling Xiaoshuang did not have a void locale ball of the Chaos Realm, she believed that she could still go over.

“Hmm…” Before the communication pearl was delivered to Di Jiu, Ling Xiaoshuang took it back and said anxiously, “Big Brother Di, when I advanced to Dao Integration, Sister Cai Ji sent me an SOS. However, I didn’t see it at the time. Sorry, Big Brother Di. I’m going to rescue Sister Cai Ji. After I manage to rescue her, I’ll definitely come back to take you to the Chaos Realm.”

Di Jiu had heard of the name Cai Ji and he appreciated Ling Xiaoshuang’s temperament very much. Even though this was a message sent from a friend thousands of years ago, she did not pretend not to notice.

“I’m not in a hurry for now. I will go to the Chaos Realm after some time. Xiaoshuang, you can just go. Do you need my help?” Di Jiu responded. Before he reached the Primordial Chaos Realm, he did not plan to go there.

This was the same realm as Heaven’s Beyond. There were also third-step experts here. As a Primordial Dao cultivator, would he survive if he met such an expert?

Even he was not a match for Ling Xiaoshuang, not to mention other people.

Ling Xiaoshuang shook her head. “It’s fine. I’ll go on my own.”

Di Jiu remembered something. “By the way, you told me before that Daoist Cai Ji cultivated ancient martial arts, right?”

Ling Xiaoshuang nodded. “Yes. At the time, our Dao forces were compatible so we went to the vast void to look for opportunities. Cai Ji and I saw that third-step expert go through Colossal Degeneration. He also came from the same planet as Sister Cai Ji.”

“Since that planet produced such an expert, it should be a place with a very high Heaven Earth Law, right?” Di Jiu casually asked.

Ling Xiaoshuang shook her head. “No, it’s a mortal planet. I heard from Sister Cai Ji that it’s called Earth…”

“What?” Di Jiu exclaimed in shock. Earth? He had not expected that there would be people from the same planet hundreds of millions of light-years from Earth.

“Big Brother Di, have you heard of this place?” Ling Xiaoshuang asked in confusion when she saw Di Jiu’s shock.

Di Jiu took a deep breath and nodded before saying, “Yes, I have heard of this place. I am from Earth.”

Although Di Jiu’s physical body came from the Everlasting Domain Planet, he was now sure that Di Zimo on Earth had been part of his previous life. Almost all of Di Zimo’s memories remained in his brain. That was why he said that he came from Earth.

“Ah…” It was time for Ling Xiaoshuang to be shocked when she learned that Di Jiu was actually from Earth.

What kind of place was that? The exceptional experts that she had met were all from Earth.

“Is there a problem?” Di Jiu asked.

After a while, Ling Xiaoshuang said, “Big Brother Di, if there is a chance in the future, can you take me to Earth to have a look?”

She really wanted to know what kind of planet it was.

Di Jiu smiled. “Of course, this is nothing amazing. Besides, I have always wanted to go back, but I’ve had no chance. After I go to Heaven’s Beyond this time and handle some matters, I’ll return to Earth.”

“Alright, I’ll take my leave now. Let’s exchange communication pearls. After I go to the place where Sister Cai Ji met a mishap, I will come back to find you.” Ling Xiaoshuang once again handed the communication pearl to Di Jiu.

She did not mention rescuing Cai Ji because she knew very well that saving Cai Ji after thousands of years would probably be wishful thinking. Sister Cai Ji had most likely perished and her Dao had disappeared. However, she had to go over. Even if there was one-billionth of a chance, she would not give up. After all, Cai Ji had asked her for help.

After Di Jiu took out his communication pearl and exchanged it with Ling Xiaoshuang’s Spiritual Force imprint, he handed the communication pearl to Ling Xiaoshuang and said, “Xiaoshuang, since Cai Ji is from Earth like me, I have to go to take a look at this. I hope you can wait for me for three months. After three months, we will set off.”

In three months, Di Jiu planned to advance his Dao fire.

He would advance his Dao fire for the sake of advancing his blacksmithing level and his Heavenly Aqua Saber.

Ling Xiaoshuang looked at Di Jiu in pleasant surprise and said, “Thank you, Big Brother Di. We’ll go together in three months.”

Di Jiu’s strength was indeed not as good as hers, but she knew very well that if she really fought with Di Jiu, she would very likely lose her life.

Di Jiu’s ability to judge things and his Alchemy Dao and Array Dao were incomparable to hers. Most importantly, Di Jiu’s Array Dao was very powerful.

If he wanted to rescue Cai Ji, without a powerful Array Dao, he would either die or go in vain.

…

The Great Ultimate Kui River Mystic Area had opened and everyone who should go in had entered. After all, the party responsible for the opening was the Winter Valley. Therefore, the extra place was also given to the Winter Valley. This way, the Winter Valley had three cultivators enter the Kui River Mystic Area.

However, Valley Master Su Qianqian was not at all happy because Grand Elder Jiu You had gone missing.

Since Jiu You was the only Grand Elder in the Winter Valley, there was not even a Soul Card. Thus, the Winter Valley did not know whether Elder Jiu You had gone missing or something had happened to him.

In the past few days, Su Qianqian had kept thinking of Di Jiu, who was really mysterious. Would a mere Dao Birth cultivator dare be so arrogant in the Winter Valley or even before experts because he was a Primordial Dao Alchemy Deity? He had even dared to trade with Ren Jisha. Was he not afraid of Ren Jisha at all?

The more Su Qianqian thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong. Unfortunately, she did not know where Di Jiu was or whether he was being restrained by the Grand Elder. There was another possibility that she did not want to think about, which was whether Di Jiu had plotted against Elder Jiu.

“Cen Ruxuan and Yin Yueshu from the Sunken Fish Palace pay their respects to Grand Elder Jiu You and Valley Master Su of the Winter Valley.” While Su Qianqian was still frowning deep in thought, a clear voice came from outside the Winter Valley’s Defense Array.

Su Qianqian subconsciously stood up, knowing that the people causing trouble had come.
