Chapter 429: Refining the Sacred Yin Pearl
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The term “Chaos aura” was akin to a bomb thrown into a hornet’s nest as the mass of cultivators swamped into the comrcial building.
Everyone saw Di Jiu, who had been rendered motionless by the Sacred Yin Pearl’s Yin Qi. Hao Ran, who was in the lead, was the first person to see him. However, no one approached Di Jiu, as they all rushed towards the Sacred Yin Pearl instead.
Even a fool would know that the Sacred Yin Pearl was a treasure, given the fact that it was emitting dense Chaos aura.
Crack, Crack...
A continuous cracking sound was heard while everyone lost their ability to speak in a mont. All the cultivators who entered the building suffered the sa fate – their Spiritual Sea started to crack and their Principal Spirit started to freeze.
The cultivators who rushed into the building collapsed one after another. Soon, the comrcial building regained its peace. There was no second sign of life, other than Di Jiu, whose Spiritual Sea and body were being protected by his level-nine immortal fla Luminous Starry Sky.
As another dizzy spell hit him, Di Jiu frantically reminded himself not to lose consciousness. The restriction that so many cultivators had failed to destroy would not allow him to wake up again once he lost consciousness.
Circulating the Starry Sky Art was impossible, but he was still able to sense laws through his intent. Thanks to the force of Di Jiu’s intent, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, the Ninth Dao Law within his Spiritual Sea emitted ripples of circle-like engravings.
Di Jiu’s intent finally captured a Dao engraving aura, and he attempted to communicate with his Starry Sky ridian.
Once, twice...
Just as Di Jiu started to feel like giving up, a nomological bridge was finally built, creating a Qi Circulation much like when one was cultivating.
Di Jiu absorbed the faint Chaos aura that entered his Starry Sky ridian. Suddenly, he felt his cultivation level soaring...
Was this a new cultivation thod? Di Jiu was exultant, as he was certain that this was a brand-new cultivation thod. This thod did not require the cultivator to complete a Qi Circulation through their ridian. Instead, they could complete a Nomological Qi Circulation using the nomological aura of their surroundings.
Di Jiu was positive that he had invented a new cultivation thod, as no one had ever cultivated in such a manner in the history of the Cultivation World.
From this day onwards, he would still be able to cultivate even if all his ridians and his Spiritual Sea were sealed by soone. The only prerequisites were that his intent was still present and that there were laws in his surroundings.
There would always be laws present, no matter where he was in the vast universe. This was sothing Di Jiu had gleaned about the Heaven Earth Laws after gaining possession of the Ninth Dao Law.
Crack! After a few Qi Circulations of the dense Chaos Qi, his cultivation level, which had been stuck for several years, broke through to the fourth-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm.
Along with the rise of his cultivation level, Di Jiu felt the pressure on his Dao fire decrease. He started to absorb the Chaos Qi to cultivate even more desperately.
In Di Jiu’s opinion, the purest Essence Energy for cultivating in the entire world was currently the Chaos Qi.
Fifth-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm, sixth-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm...
Boom! His Spiritual Force regained its mobility when Di Jiu’s cultivation level broke through from the sixth-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm to the seventh-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm.
A crackling sound was heard before the Dao fire that ford a protective layer on Di Jiu’s body made an appearance, burning away the chilling aura. Di Jiu sensed an aura belonging to the Sacred Yin Pearl. He started to refine the surrounding Sacred Yin Pearl’s aura as he completed the Nomological Qi Circulations and cultivated.
He was currently at least 100 feet away from the Sacred Yin Pearl, yet the Yin Qi of the pearl had already locked on him. The Sacred Yin Pearl would kill him if he stood beside it, which was why he needed to start refining it now.
It was only after he started refining it that he found out what kind of treasure it was. He was certain that the Sacred Yin Pearl appeared around the sa ti as the Ninth Dao Law, which implied that it was also a treasure produced by epoch-making. Suddenly, Di Jiu suspected that the Sacred Yin Pearl had co here of its own will, for no one could have brought it to the basent of this comrcial building otherwise.
If he had not possessed both the Ninth Dao Law and the Dao fire, he would not have been able to even entertain the notion of refining the Sacred Yin Pearl. After all, he would have been dead, just like the corpses lying there.
Di Jiu slowly started walking towards the Sacred Yin Pearl by sensing its aura and using the thod of Nomological Qi Circulations to refine the pearl.
...
The Lunar Forsaken Tomb was the most ideal location for cultivators who wanted to put themselves to the test. This was a place where one could obtain a variety of cultivating resources, even though one could not cultivate there.
After profiting from the Lunar Forsaken Tomb, an average cultivator would hastily leave to exchange cultivating resources they needed before going into seclusion to increase their cultivation level.
Inside the Lunar Forsaken Tomb were two places that everyone liked to frequent: the Dark Ruins Canyon and the Lunar Immortal Sea.
However, sothing strange had happened on the Yin Fla Island of the Lunar Immortal Sea recently. As a result, many cultivators who entered the Lunar Immortal Sea would make a detour around the Yin Fla Island.
In the past, there had been rumors that the Divine Dawn tal had appeared on the Yin Fla Island, which had caused several thousands of people to head to the island. A Lunar Immortal Sea storm had suddenly appeared while this horde of people had been approaching the island, so only around 10 percent of them had survived.
This was not the worst part. Although more than 100 cultivators had entered the Yin Fla Island, none of them had left the island ever since.
After this incident, the entire island had been enveloped by an extrely chilling aura. Upon approaching the island, the ridians and Spiritual Force of cultivators who possessed a slightly lower cultivation level would be corroded by this aura.
Later on, so Immortal Emperors had co over to take a look but had discovered nothing. These Immortal Emperors had dared not stay on the Yin Fla Island for too long a ti.
There were suspicions that an extrely powerful cultivator was residing on the island and devouring the souls of the cultivators. Over ti, any cultivators who entered the Lunar Immortal Sea would avoid the Yin Fla Island.
Ren Zhiren and Lou Jia, the only people who had successfully escaped from the Yin Fla Island, had already attained the late-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm when they heard this news.
After hearing this news, they were even more terrified of leaking any information about being to the Yin Fla Island. They could only silently pray that Qu Xiaoshu had survived and escaped as well.
...
Di Jiu was naturally still alive. His cultivation level had reached the eighth-stage Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm, and he was standing directly below the Sacred Yin Pearl.
He had refined the Sacred Yin Pearl for a decade and managed to refine a Foundation Order aura of the Sacred Yin Pearl as well. This was why he was able to stand below the pearl.
The Sacred Yin Pearl was within reach if he stretched his hand out. However, he was well-aware that he would die the mont he did so.
The Sacred Yin Pearl was definitely capable of recognizing its owner by itself. Since that had yet to occur, it ant that he had to refine it gradually.
At the sa ti, Di Jiu knew that he had to reach out with his hand if he truly wished to obtain the Sacred Yin Pearl. Otherwise, the pearl would escape once again.
Di Jiu’s cultivation level had not increased much after a decade, yet his Qi Circulation cultivation and his refining technique had beco more perfect.
The surrounding Foundation Orders would form Qi Circulations that would envelop him once he started cultivating. Once these Qi Circulations passed through his Starry Sky ridian, they would rge with his surroundings.
He would have long since perfected his Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm or even broken through to the Immortal King Realm in these 10 years if he hadn’t been frantically refining the Sacred Yin Pearl.
He desired the Sacred Yin Pearl more than any increase in his cultivation level.
Ti passed like this. During the first few years, Di Jiu could only refine the Sacred Yin Pearl by completing Nomological Qi Circulations. Later on, he was able to incorporate hand seals in the Nomological Qi Circulations.
The Chaos aura surrounding the Sacred Yin Pearl had long disappeared and the chilling aura was slowly dispersing as well.
When this chilling aura completely disappeared, the Sacred Yin Pearl seed to sense Di Jiu’s desperate refining attempt. Even though it had been originally revolving slowly, it suddenly vibrated vigorously as if it was about to escape, causing Di Jiu to be rudely awakened.
He reached with his hand towards the Sacred Yin Pearl without hesitation, the Nomological Qi Circulations happening at a frantic rate.
Almost at the very instant Di Jiu grabbed hold of the Sacred Yin Pearl, a frightening chilling aura assaulted his Spiritual Sea. A mont later, his Spiritual Sea was completely sealed and the chilling aura swiftly invaded his whole body.
The chill of the Sacred Yin Pearl sealed Di Jiu’s entire body, from his ridians to his bones and blood...
Even his intent would have disappeared, leaving only his flesh behind, if Di Jiu hadn’t possessed a Dao fire.
The Nomological Qi Circulation occurred at an elevated speed since his intent had yet to disappear.
Crack! Sothing within the Sacred Yin Pearl seed to break and it seed to emit a massive amount of Chaos aura.
Di Jiu, who had been refining the Sacred Yin Pearl for many years, knew what was happening. He sensed a trace of law coming from the Sacred Yin Pearl, yet he did not dare stop spreading the Nomological Qi across his body or stop refining.
When the chill sealing his Spiritual Sea started dissipating, he could finally move his Spiritual Force. Then, his blood started to flow and his bones returned to normal.
Di Jiu knew very well that this was not because he had refined the Sacred Yin Pearl. Therefore, without any hesitation whatsoever, he spat a mouthful of Blood Essence onto the Sacred Yin Pearl.
All the chilling aura disappeared without a trace the instant his Blood Essence ca into contact with the Sacred Yin Pearl. Then, the Sacred Yin Pearl landed on Di Jiu’s open palm.
Di Jiu let out a sigh of relief upon realizing that the Sacred Yin Pearl now belonged to him completely. He had yet to fully refine the Sacred Yin Pearl, but that was not a problem. After all, he would have the ti to do it so long as it belonged to him. Di Jiu let go of his grip on the Sacred Yin Pearl, moving it to the recesses of his Spiritual Sea by using his intent. Then, it floated beside the Ninth Dao Law.
