Chapter 326: The Seven-Star Aqua Flag
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Junior Brother Qu, I plan to set up a Major Five-Elent Array here to get the light from providence to shine...” Di Jiu had addressed Qu Tong as his Junior Brother because he had addressed him as Senior Brother. This was apt since, in the future, after the Immortal City was built, Qu Tong would cultivate in the Immortal City as well.
Before Di Jiu could finish, Qu Tong interrupted him hurriedly. “It will be best to have the Five-Elent Flag if you are using the Major Five-Elent Array to get the light from providence to shine.”
“I know. However, the Five-Elent Flag is too rare. I plan to use so ordinary array flags to replace it temporarily,” answered Di Jiu. He would not have thought of using the Major Five-Elent Array to get the light from providence if it had not been for the Floating Fla Flag.
“I know where to get the Seven-Star Aqua Flag, Senior Brother Di,” said Qu Tong excitedly.
“The Seven-Star Aqua Flag? Where is it?” asked Di Jiu, who was even more excited than Qu Tong.
He had planned to set up the Major Five-Elent Array to gather the light from providence in the Immortal World. However, he naturally changed his plan now that Qu Tong had discovered the place where the remnant light from providence resided. He would still set up the Major Five-Elent Array. It would, however, be used to ensure the light from providence shone on the Immortal World, instead of gathering it.
As long as this remaining portion of the light from providence in the Immortal World was ensured, the light that had previously dissipated would gradually gather too. Even the portion that had been plundered previously would form again. Therefore, it wasn’t impossible that the Immortal World would be restored to its forr glory.
Di Jiu, who was already feeling happy, felt even happier when Qu Tong told him that he knew where the Seven-Star Aqua Flag was. The Floating Fla Flag alone would have been enough to ensure that the light from providence could shine. Now, with the help of the Seven-Star Aqua Flag, the gathering speed of the light from providence would increase. Moreover, this would help expand the area of the Immortal City while it was in the initial stages.
Every flag in the Five-Elent Flag was a connate spiritual treasure. The five flags included the Green Lotus Flag, the Floating Fla Flag, the White Cloud Bound Flag, the Seven-Star Aqua Flag, and the Yellow Apricot Flag.
Basically, it would be quite impossible to gather all five flags. Just obtaining two flags would be thanks to the light shining down from providence, much less its usage to ensure that it kept happening.
Di Jiu was only worried about getting the Seven-Star Aqua Flag.
Suddenly, Qu Tong said with a sigh, “I kept converting my Essence Energy into Immortal Essence while I was in the Three-Elent Immortal City. The City Lord of the Three-Elent Immortal City is called Zheng Sanxing. He is a Golden Immortal expert. However, I heard that there was no Thunder Tribulation when he attained the Golden Immortal Realm. Therefore, I suspect that he is a fake Golden Immortal. This man founded the Three-Elent Immortal City, where he is the king. Nobody dared show him any disrespect. Anyone who treated him with disrespect was reduced to rotten bones.”
Not only did Qu Tong suspect that Zheng Sanxing was a fake Golden Immortal, but he even suspected that he was a fake Perfected Immortal. Only Di Jiu had transcended the Thunder Tribulation, so he had to be a real Perfected Immortal.
Qu Tong handed a jade slip over to Di Jiu as he said, “This jade slip depicts the location of the Three-Elent Immortal City, Senior Brother Di. I’d be willing to go with you if you wished to go there.”
Di Jiu took the jade slip and scanned it with his Spiritual Force. Then, he handed another jade slip to Qu Tong and said, “You don’t have to accompany . Please go to the Thearch Robe Sea on my behalf. I agreed with Bei Chutai that we would leave a ssage at the Thearch Robe Sea if we found a place to establish our foothold. Please bring Bei Chutai here if he is at the Thearch Robe Sea. If he isn’t, follow the instructions on the jade slip and leave an imprint at the Thearch Robe Sea. When you are done, please return to help .”
“Okay, Senior Brother. I will set off now,” replied Qu Tong unhurriedly.
He had lived his life like a dead man walking in the Immortal World for so many years. Now that he had a purpose in life, every mont was filled with hope for him.
After Qu Tong left, Di Jiu imdiately set up a Concealnt Immortal Array to hide the stream of spring water. Then, he headed towards the Three-Elent Immortal City.
...
The Three-Elent Immortal City was extrely far from the Sky Bamboo River. Although Qu Tong had provided its coordinates and Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force escape technique was more than 10 tis faster ever since he had attained the Perfected Immortal Realm, it still took him a few days before he finally arrived in the Three-Elent Immortal City with Mo Yuxuan.
The Three-Elent Immortal City looked no different from the cultivation city in the Cultivation World. Two large words hovered above the archaic city walls. Two cultivators who had perfected the Domain Realm were also standing listlessly by the entrance of the city. They looked as if they were holding on to their dying breath. Di Jiu didn’t see anyone go in or out of the city after observing for half a day from afar.
He saw a huge plaque at the city gate when he arrived. The plaque stated, “Anyone who sponsors a billion high-grade Spirit Stones or more than 800 immortal crystals can reside permanently in the Three-Elent Immortal City and move freely around the area.”
“Hey, punk! Do you want to get into the Immortal City?” asked a guard, who was standing at the edge of the city gate, breathlessly as he squinted his eyes at Di Jiu.
Di Jiu was just about to speak when he saw a cultivator in a green robe throw a woman down from the top of the city walls.
It was obvious that the woman had had her ridians and cultivation locked up. Long steel thorns that had just been refined, each one about five feet long, covered the area at the bottom of the city walls.
Surrounded by these long steel thorns was a pile of blood-stained clothes and bones. Di Jiu even saw two cultivators who had just died recently, whose bodies had not yet disintegrated, still nailed atop the steel thorns.
The bones were surrounded by restrictions that cut off Spiritual Force and aura. Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force could perate these restrictions and see the miserable condition inside because he had genuinely attained the level-two Immortal Force and had also cultivated the Spiritual Force Training Art.
Without hesitation, Di Jiu’s Quintessential Essence hand seal whirled the lady who had been thrown down over to his side. Thus, she was saved from getting killed.
With a clap of his hands, the restriction on the female cultivator was removed.
“Who are you? How dare you provoke the Three-Elent Immortal City?” shouted the cultivator in the green robe angrily when he saw that the woman he had thrown down had been saved by Di Jiu. Then, he rushed down imdiately.
The two guards didn’t look breathless or lifeless anymore. Both of them took out their Dharma treasures and stared at Di Jiu vigilantly.
At the sa ti, the male cultivator in the green robe dashed out of the city gate and approached Di Jiu. He stared at Di Jiu as he asked once again, “Who are you? How dare you provoke the Three-Elent Immortal City?”
He had cald down during the short span of ti he had spent dashing down from the city walls. He knew that Di Jiu was no ordinary man. He had managed to rescue Liu Yuxin easily from the Dharma Array after all. Otherwise, he would have attacked Di Jiu directly, instead of rely questioning him.
Di Jiu ignored the male cultivator and instead looked at the female cultivator that he had rescued and asked, “Why do they want to kill you?”
The female cultivator looked at Di Jiu mournfully, bowed and said, “Sir, I am Liu Yuxin. Thanks for saving , but I’m afraid I have gotten you into trouble.”
Di Jiu waved his hand and said, “It is not important whether or not you have implicated . Tell why they wanted to kill you. Plus, we are both in the Sunset Immortal World, so let’s not address each other as Senior and Junior. Let’s address each other as Daoist instead.”
“Okay. In the beginning, I used 1,000 immortal crystals to enter the Three-Elent Immortal City and thought I had finally found a place to reside in. However, I had only stayed here for a month when I was brought to Zheng Sanxing’s cave abode, where he forced himself on . I had to put up with this humiliation in order to survive. What I hadn’t expected was that, while I was converting Quintessential Essence into Immortal Essence, Zheng Sanxing would intrude my cave abode once again and snatch my ring. Then, he forcibly locked up my ridians and cultivation and had his subordinates throw down from the city wall...”
Liu Yuxin sounded hopeless. She had thought that she had been lucky enough to finally obtain a ring in the Immortal World. Little had she expected that all her efforts would go to waste because of Zheng Sanxing.
The cultivator in the green robe didn’t dare attack Di Jiu. Instead, he lifted his hand and sent a ssage.
Di Jiu sighed. Things like this were a di a dozen in the Sunset Immortal World.
“Let’s go! Follow to the Immortal City. We’ll pay a visit to Zheng Sanxing,” Di Jiu told Liu Yuxin.
Liu Yuxin, who had always had a do-or-die attitude, had nothing to be afraid of now that Di Jiu wanted to enter the Immortal City instead of running away.
“You must have a death wish!” The man in the green robe flung his Dharma treasure at Di Jiu when he saw Di Jiu dash through the city gate of the Three-Elent Immortal City. If he didn’t stop Di Jiu, he wouldn’t live long either.
Di Jiu didn’t even flash his Heavenly Aqua Saber. He just kicked.
Crack! Everybody heard the bones of the man in the green robe break. The two guards looked on helplessly as their deacon flew up into the sky and then fell down to the bottom of the city walls, which were covered with steel thorns.
A few monts later, they vaguely saw a bloody mist explode amidst the restriction array.
The two guards, who felt shivers go down their spines, didn’t dare speak. They would be courting death if they spoke. Although the deacon had been a Perfected Immortal expert, he hadn’t even been able to withstand a single kick from Di Jiu.
“Daoist, did you co to my city to kill people at random because you think you have a powerful cultivation?” A calm voice was heard as a bald man landed in front of Di Jiu.
The aura of this man was many tis stronger than that of the male cultivator in the green robe. Di Jiu scanned the man slightly with his Spiritual Force and realized that he was most likely the City Lord of the Three-Elent Immortal City, Zheng Sanxing. He had heard that Zheng Sanxing was a Golden Immortal.
