Ninth In the World

Panda Novel

When Qian Fuyan saw that Di Jiu was unscathed, his eyes turned even more bloodshot. Although this nobody, who had come out of nowhere, had sneaked an attack to get rid of half of his body and blocked his huge opportunity, he was still fine.

No matter how high a price Qian Fuyan paid, he had to kill Di Jiu. No one could stand for a long time by the Chaos Lava Lake. When Di Jiu rushed to the lake, it would be time for his death.

An array flag was caught by Qian Fuyan, but before he set it up, he was even more stunned. Not only did Di Jiu not rush out of the Chaos Lava Lake immediately, but after standing still, he also took out a flame.

“This is the Dao fire?” Qian Fuyan mumbled. “No, that’s not right. That isn’t just a Dao fire. It’s a Dao fire that is also a sacred flame.”

Qian Fuyan was completely dumbfounded. A sacred flame Dao fire? He had never heard of that before, let alone seen one. However, someone had taken one out today.

Many people thought that the most difficult thing for the Dao fire was becoming a sacred flame. However, in Qian Fuyan’s opinion, that was not difficult. The most difficult thing for the Dao fire was condensing, as that was when most of the cultivators would have their souls annihilated.

Although a minority of cultivators managed to condense the Dao fire, that flame was no longer considered a Dao fire. That Dao fire could only be regarded as an ordinary flame with the name of a Dao fire.

The highest level of Dao fire was used to condense the most top-notch Dao law. Apart from that, the cultivator condensing the Dao fire would not know that they were condensing the Dao fire yet. In other words, they could not deliberately condense the Dao fire.

If they did not know or could not deliberately condense the Dao fire, even if they took out a Dao fire, it would only be an ordinary flame.

Now, he finally saw a Dao fire that was a flawless sacred flame. After Di Jiu took out that Dao fire, it really did block the lava. What was even more eye-opening was that Qian Fuyan could sense that the Dao fire in the Chaos Lava continued to get stronger.

The Dao fire was a sacred flame. How powerful was it if such a powerful flame was still getting stronger?

Qian Fuyan subconsciously looked at the cultivators setting up the array flags in the distance. He was sure that if he fought with the young man who had plotted against him, less than ten of these cultivators would wholeheartedly support him. With ten more people on top of his serious injuries, could he still beat the young cultivator who had cut off half of his body with one saber move?

Qian Fuyan’s gaze finally fell on Bo Youyan, who seemed to know that he was looking at her yet did not even look back.

In the past, even if she had known that Qian Fuyan was using her, she would not have dared to say a word. However, now that half of his body had been lost due to a sneak attack, half of his attack power had also been lost. Why would she still fear him?

What had shocked her was that Di Jiu, who was a terrifying cultivator, was sitting under the Chaos Lava and cultivating. Where had this guy come from? If he could really walk out of the Chaos Lava, where would the Seven-Chakra King and she be in the Central Chakra Province?

No, the young man in green was still cultivating. He had to be tempering his body. He definitely had a Sacred Body, but his physical body was still constantly rising as he tempered his body in the Chaos Lava.

Both Bo Youyan and Qian Fuyan realized that.

He knew that Bo Youyan had an opinion about him, but he still had to ask her for help. The strength that Di Jiu was showing was terrifying, and Qian Fuyan alone was definitely not his match.

“Junior Sister Youyan, not only does this person have a sacred flame Dao fire, but he also has a Sacred Body. This is nothing. The most terrifying factor is that his body-tempering cultivation technique is simply formidable. He can actually use the Chaos Lava to temper his body. How terrifying is that?” Qian Fuyan did not mention the previous matter. He was sure that if Bo Youyan was not a total idiot, she would work with him to deal with Di Jiu.

Bo Youyan chuckled. “Big Brother Qianfu, I’m done for because of you. Not only did you not get anything, but you nearly rushed into the Chaos Lava. That’s simply a joke.”

Qian Fuyan laughed a few times. “Junior Sister Youyan, I didn’t tell you so in advance, which was my fault. I was going to catch that pearl and ferret Ling Xiaoshuang out for you. However, I didn’t expect a heaven-defying person to appear out of nowhere. He is extremely terrifying.”

With those words, Qian Fuyan subdued his unhappiness.

Bo Youyan sneered. She did not believe Qian Fuyan.

“Seven-Chakra King, we can’t even collect any Chaos Lava this time.” The young man behind the Seven-Chakra King walked over and spoke after a bow.

Qian Fuyan frowned and did not speak. He knew what he meant. Di Jiu’s Dao fire had blocked the eruption of the Chaos Lava. How could they, who had been prepared to collect the Chaos Lava splashed out by using the Dharma Arrays, collect a drop of it?

After more than a dozen seconds, the Seven-Chakra King said slowly, “Gather all the cultivators in the Central Chakra City. We will continue to set up the Confinement Array here. As long as we trap the Chaos Lava Lake, when the Chaos Lava disperses, that person will no longer be able to escape. We’ll take back everything that he gets.”

“Yes.” The young man glanced at the Seven-Chakra King vaguely and sneered deep down. How dare a person who had lost most of his strength talk big and want to gather all the cultivators of the Central Chakra City to die for him? This guy was simply dreaming.

Despite that, the young man still took a few steps back and quickly left the Chaos Lava Lakeside.

Indeed, he wanted to gather all the cultivators in the Central Chakra City, not for the Seven-Chakra King, but because he had waited too long and was not patient enough to wait any longer.

…

After Ling Xiaoshuang entered the Sacred Yang Pearl, she realized something. Seven-Chakra King Qian Fuyan wanted her Sacred Yang Pearl and had intentionally created a false restriction. It was ridiculous that she had wanted to use the forbidden technique to break free from the restriction. She was still doing something for someone who had betrayed her.

These old guys were not easy to beat indeed. Even though her experience was not considered bad, she was too soft compared to them.

Sighing, Ling Xiaoshuang decided to die inside the Sacred Yang Pearl.

No matter how strong the Seven-Chakra King was, he still needed some time to refine the Sacred Yang Pearl. That time would be enough for her to die.

As soon as her Spiritual Force scanned Qian Fuyan’s handprint, which had been about to grab her Sacred Yang Pearl, she actually saw a blue saber flare slash toward Qian Fuyan.

Even though Ling Xiaoshuang was in the Sacred Yang Pearl, she could clearly sense that deathly aura. She was all too familiar with the blue misty saber flash, as she had landed in the Hell Whirlpool because of that saber.

At that moment, Ling Xiaoshuang suddenly felt an impulse in her heart. She was sure that Di Jiu was there. Nobody else could use the overbearing saber intent of the Heavenly Aqua Saber.

Regardless of whether Di Jiu had come because of the aura of the Heavenly Aqua Saber, after obtaining the Heavenly Aqua Saber, he had still entered the Hell Whirlpool to look for Ling Xiaoshuang. She could never forget that kindness. Saving her this time was completely different from when he had saved her in the Great Ultimate Realm’s Winter Valley.

In the Great Ultimate Realm’s Winter Valley, Di Jiu had saved her easily. This time, he had risked his life and rushed into the Hell Whirlpool to save her.

Frozen, Ling Xiaoshuang looked at the saber flash that slashed toward Qian Fuyan and imprinted that deep down. At that moment, Ling Xiaoshuang could no longer forget this name.

She recalled what her master had once told her. “You are too reserved. This is a kind of self-cultivation and a restriction. In the future, you will find out that because of your reserved nature, you will lose what you want the most.”

She knew who her master had been talking about, but she had not felt very disappointed, as she had known deep down that this was not what she wanted the most.

She remembered answering, “Master, there’s nothing I want the most.”

At the time, her master had smiled slightly and had not answered her.

Now, she suddenly wanted to tell her master aloud that she had what she wanted the most. If she could rush out of the Sacred Yang Pearl now, Ling Xiaoshuang would never hold back again.
