Chapter 411: Ti
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The intense power of his level-eight immortal fla, Luminous Starry Sky, fully manifested at this mont. The Zenith Divine tal fused with the Heavenly Aqua Saber in no ti. Di Jiu didn’t even need to put his smithing skills to work. He could already sense the Heavenly Aqua Saber advancing to the next level.
Violet Aqua Sand was indeed a top-notch treasure. Otherwise, he would have had to lt the Heavenly Aqua Saber and re-craft it in order to upgrade it.
The Zenith Divine tal gradually disappeared as the Heavenly Aqua Saber vibrated and flashed constantly. Its aura also surged rapidly. After a single day, Di Jiu heard a sharp buzz coming from the Heavenly Aqua Saber before a light blue saber floated in front of him, exuding an almighty aura.
Judging by the Heavenly Aqua Saber’s aura, Di Jiu knew that it had advanced to a high-grade immortal weapon. It didn’t shrink in the process. Instead, it remained three feet and nine inches long.
Di Jiu raised his hand and the Heavenly Aqua Saber appeared in his palm. He was extrely satisfied when he felt its mighty aura.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t carry the Heavenly Aqua Saber on his back anymore after getting out of this place. Otherwise, the Heavenly Aqua Saber’s level would advance even faster.
Given what he had done in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, Di Jiu could easily figure out that those people knew that he was the one who had purchased the Ti Crystal.
He placed the Heavenly Aqua Saber by his side and took out a jade box.
The box contained the Ti Crystal, which he had yet to open since he had purchased it. The jade box was covered with all kinds of restrictions, so Di Jiu carefully removed the restrictions and opened it.
An ordinary gray crystal stone entered his field of vision. Di Jiu took a deep breath and cald himself down. He knew very well that despite the Ti Crystal’s fa and exorbitant price, it was useless for most cultivators.
However, unlike others, he possessed the Ninth Dao Law. Therefore, he could very likely comprehend the law of ti contained within the Ti Crystal.
Di Jiu finally grabbed the grey stone after his mind was completely free from distractions.
Then, he was hit by the vicissitudes of ti. The scenery before Di Jiu changed, and he found himself standing on the streets of Pearl City.
Those had been his most dejected, but also happiest days. He and Qu Xiaoshu had flaunted their power in Pearl City and spent all their ti on nothing but nefarious activities.
A clear stream of nomological aura spread around his Spiritual Sea like a wave. However, sothing was wrong. Di Jiu instantly realized what was going on. He was supposed to use the Ti Crystal to understand the law of ti, not to reminisce about the past. If this went on, the Ti Crystal in his hand would be completely wasted.
The nomological aura of the Ninth Dao Law imrsed Di Jiu into the grey stream of nomological aura once again. He couldn’t catch what it was, but he could feel it passing by all the ti.
All the laws of the universe could be reversed, except the law of ti...
Actually, even ti could be reversed. The reason it couldn’t be was that no one could touch it. If ti could be touched, it could be reversed...
That was still incorrect, as ti couldn’t be touched. It was an intangible law...
Everything in the universe was tangible, and so was ti...
‘The unknown gives rise to the known; intangibility gives rise to order; Dao gives rise to spirit; form originates from spirit, and all beings are born with a form...’
‘Everything has a form! Therefore, ti has a form too!’
Unbeknownst to Di Jiu, ti slowly passed by and the Ti Crystal in his hand gradually lost its color.
After god-knows-how-long, Di Jiu suddenly stood up and struck with the Heavenly Aqua Saber. As the misty blue saber flash appeared, space seed to beco stagnant. However, it went back to normal after a re mont.
While Di Jiu’s eyes were closed, he saw sothing that he had never seen before. Life was but a fleeting mont...
Just as Di Jiu was about to touch that mont, the Ti Crystal in his hand was reduced to nothing after a crack was heard. There was blazing excitent in Di Jiu’s eyes now. He had a feeling that he would understand the basics of ti law if he could grasp this thing at that mont.
It was a pity that his Ti Crystal shattered right as he was about to grasp it and comprehend the law of ti.
However, Di Jiu realized that if he could really understand the basics of ti law by grabbing on to that fleeting mont, he might not have to fear an Immortal Emperor even if he was at the Immortal King Realm.
He wasn’t far from becoming an Immortal King. He just had to exit this place and go through Tribulation Transcendence in order to advance to the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm.
He needed to ask where this Ti Crystal had been obtained from and find more Ti Crystals. A single one wasn’t enough for him.
Previously, he had only known that the law of ti was frightening, but now he was very aware of how frightening it was.
Di Jiu had originally planned to find a way to extract the Grayish-Purple Lattice from the Heavenly Purple Lattice before leaving Dai He Hall. However, he now wanted to leave imdiately to find out where that Ti Crystal had co from.
It was too important to him.
“Big Brother, when you struck with your saber just now, I felt everything in front of the saber flash pause for a mont. Was that an illusion?” Xie Huang was the first to ask a question.
While Di Jiu had experienced a mont of enlightennt, Xie Huang and the others had all woken up and witnessed Di Jiu’s move with their own eyes.
Di Jiu nodded and replied, “Yes, that is an extrely powerful technique. It’s a pity that I failed to comprehend it. I have to leave this place, but you guys can continue cultivating here.”
“Big Brother, should I send a ssage to my father?” Xie Huang actually wanted his father to take care of Di Jiu.
Di Jiu sneered as he said, “If you want to get in trouble, you can send your father a ssage now. While I was escaping from the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, your father was one of the people that ca after . If I had been any slower, your father and those Immortal Emperors would have ended my life already.”
“Ah...” Xie Huang exclaid in surprise, not daring to say another word.
He wouldn’t doubt Di Jiu’s words. After all, if his father could lock his mom up in an underground prison, how could he possibly care about his friend?
“Look out for yourself. We’ll continue to train hard in this place.” Mo Yuxuan knew that she would be burdening Di Jiu if she followed him out. The only thing she could do was work hard to improve her cultivation level in this place.
Di Jiu took out another ring and passed it to Mo Yuxuan while saying, “This contains cultivating resources for you guys. When I am capable of defending myself, I will co back and take you to the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City.”
Di Jiu couldn’t bring Mo Yuxuan and the others with him. He had a decent Quintessential World, but the environnt here was much better than his Quintessential World when it ca to cultivation.
If he brought Mo Yuxuan and the others with him, what would they be able to do apart from staying in the Quintessential World?
...
Boom! Boom! Boom! A total of 81 lightning streaks descended during the sixth wave. Immortal Essence filled Di Jiu’s entire body like hot, boiling oil, but the Tribulation Thunder still wasn’t powerful enough for his Tempered Body to advance to the next level.
His cultivation had been completely stabilized at the first-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm, but his Spiritual Force sohow didn’t break through this ti. It remained at the peak of the sixth stage.
That made Di Jiu a little anxious. Based on the level of his cultivation, his Spiritual Force should break through to the next level whenever his cultivation made a significant jump. If his Spiritual Force couldn’t advance to level-seven Immortal Force, it would be extrely dangerous for him to set foot in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City.
There was a huge difference between level-seven and level-six Immortal Force. He couldn’t get away from an Immortal Emperor by using the Spiritual Force escape technique if his Immortal Force was at level six. However, if it was at level seven, the average Immortal Emperor would no longer be able to catch up to him.
Di Jiu, who wasn’t in a hurry to leave, took out several Heavenly Purple Lattices and started extracting the Grayish-Purple Lattice again.
He hadn’t found a way to completely extract the Grayish-Purple Lattice, yet he had just broken through to the first-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm and his Spiritual Sea was still growing. Thus, his Immortal Force could very likely advance to level seven with the help of the Grayish-Purple Lattice.
After Di Jiu extracted a drop of Grayish-Purple Lattice, he put it in his mouth imdiately, as he wasn’t capable of storing it at the mont. It would dissipate in re seconds.
Boom! A violent aura exploded in Di Jiu’s Spiritual Sea and expanded rapidly. The Dao engraved in his Spiritual Sea vibrated incessantly.
Since there were no signs of his Immortal Force breaking through to the next level, Di Jiu extracted the second drop of Grayish-Purple Lattice without any hesitation...
Then, he extracted the third drop and the fourth drop...
When Di Jiu swallowed the tenth drop of Grayish-Purple Lattice, he spewed out a mouthful of blood. His face was as pale as a sheet.
He couldn’t continue swallowing Grayish-Purple Lattice anymore. Without any dicinal herbs to counteract its effects, his Spiritual Sea might collapse instead of leveling up if he continued.
Di Jiu circulated the Spiritual Force Training Art like mad. His Spiritual Sea was roaring continuously as if it had exploded, and blood was coming out of both his ears and eyes.
Di Jiu, who was daunted, realized that he was being too hasty. Cultivation was ant to progress at a natural pace. No matter how much he wanted to improve his strength, he shouldn’t have acted so forcibly.
At the mont, Di Jiu didn’t dare think of improving the strength of his Spiritual Force anymore. If he hadn’t known the Spiritual Force Training Art, he would only have awaited the impending collapse of his Spiritual Sea.
The Spiritual Force Training Art was like a gigantic grinding disc. Every ti it perford a full rotation, it brought his Spiritual Sea back from the verge of collapse a little.
