nDi Jiu was appalled because the Principal Spirit escaped at a speed faster than his Spiritual Force escape technique. If he had not held back a trick or two, the Principal Spirit would have escaped.

n“Weakling…” The annoying thing was that the Principal Spirit continued to call him a “weakling” even after it was trapped by the trap killing array in the Evil Beast Valley.

nDi Jiu was also in the trap killing array. The half-dead Principal Spirit was nailed to the X by his trap killing array as it screamed and twitched.

nAlthough Di Jiu picked up the gigantic ax that was on the floor, his Spiritual Force could not sense the class of the ax, which suggested that the ax was not ordinary.

n“If you are nailed to an array by a weakling like me, does that mean that you are worse than a weakling?” Di Jiu mocked.

n“There is no feud between the two of us. Why did you bring people here to harm me?” The Principal Spirit stopped twitching, as he knew that his life was in Di Jiu’s hands.

nDi Jiu sneered, “No feud? When I first came to the Evil Beast Valley, you would have turned me into Blood Qi if I hadn’t escaped, wouldn’t you? Did we have a feud then? In addition, when my friend was going to the Immortal Ascension Array, you created a teleportation array there in advance and waited to capture him in the Evil Beast Valley. Now you are telling me that we do not have a feud?”

nThe Principal Spirit had always treated people based on their competency. In fact, nobody could control him and make him give in. Now that he was in Di Jiu’s hands, he had no choice but to bow down.

n“What do you want?” said the Principal Spirit in a weaker tone.

n“Tell me about your background,” Di Jiu said emotionlessly.

n“My memory has not recovered fully. It will only be regained when my physical body has recovered completely. My body was supposed to recover within a few hundred years initially, but now that my essence energy has been greatly damaged by your attack, I will have to wait many more years.”

nBefore the Principal Spirit finished his sentence, Di Jiu interrupted him and said, “I guess you don’t have that much time. Just tell me whatever you can.”

n“As long as you don’t kill me, I could be your disciple and give you a trace of the Principal Spirit imprint.” The Principal Spirit realized that Di Jiu wanted to kill him.

nAlthough Di Jiu’s heart swayed, he immediately dismissed the thought. The Principal Spirit in the Life Transformation Array was so strong that it had exceeded his imagination.

nAnything could happen in the Cultivation World. Nobody could guarantee that the Principal Spirit would not remove the Spiritual Force imprint from Di Jiu when he regained his physical body. It was not wise to do such risky and dangerous things.

nThe thought of this made Di Jiu raise his hand, causing a Primeval Thunder Pattern to slam down.

nThe Principal Spirit let out a horrific scream. “You can’t kill me! I’ll tell you…”

nHowever, the Principal Spirit was too weak to begin with, as it was not only trapped by Di Jiu’s God Suppressing Array Vanguard. It had also suffered a huge blow from the Primeval Thunder Pattern. Any Principal Spirit would have been destroyed in its place, no matter how strong it was.

nDi Jiu picked up the ring that landed on the ground. He had anticipated the ring of the Principal Spirit more than Mei Bashan and Bai Hong’s rings.

nTo Di Jiu’s disappointment, his Spiritual Force and understanding of the Dao array limited him and prevented him from opening the restriction of the Principal Spirit’s ring. This made Di Jiu realize that the Principal Spirit was not from the Cultivation World, but the real Immortal world.

nDi Jiu put away the ring and arrived at the large Life Transformation Array once again. Everyone awaited him there.

n“Daoist Di, how’s everything going?” Bai Cangxing immediately asked Di Jiu when he came back.

nDi Jiu put his Floating Flame Flag away and said, “I killed him. Don’t worry, there shouldn’t be any more problems in the Immortal Ascension Array…”

nThe atmosphere became a little odd after Di Jiu said that. Therefore, Di Jiu asked casually, “What’s wrong?”

nAlthough two people had passed on, the physical bodies of two more people had been destroyed, Zhuo Changgeng had suffered serious injuries and almost everyone had been injured, their plan was actually still considered successful.

n“Part of the skeletons in the Life Transformation Array belongs to the elders from the True Dominion that have ascended. The An Family also has one elder who was left there.” An Lingzhou sighed as he took the initiative to explain the situation.

nDi Jiu understood immediately. He had expected this after all. There was nothing surprising about it.

n“Sect Master Di, we could teleport to the Immortal Ascension Jade from here. I guess we could access the place without using the jade card in the future.” Han Wushui wanted to patch things up with Di Jiu genuinely. Hence, he stepped up and asked Di Jiu about it.

nDi Jiu did not ask Bai Cangxing anything, although the latter was in charge of the whole matter. He then pointed to the destroyed Life Transformation Array and said calmly, “My fellow Daoists, we have to destroy this teleportation gate for two reasons. Firstly, if we used the gate, there would be too many people going to the Life Transformation Array and I don’t think that the place could accommodate so many people. Secondly, even if we accessed the Life Transformation Array by using the gate, I presume that we’d need an Immortal Ascension Card as well. What the True Dominion Genius Tournament did in the past was excellent. I hope we can continue doing the same. After we’ve killed the expert Principal Spirit together, the Immortal Ascension Array will regain its strength gradually and I believe that it will be sufficient if we teleport less than 20 people each time.”

n“I agree with the Sect Master,” said Bai Cangxing without hesitation.

n“I agree too…”

nAlmost everyone agreed with Di Jiu after Bai Cangxing.

nThey were a superpower from the True Dominion, so they were not worried about being able to ascend. However, they did not want the ascension passageway to be abused. In addition, Di Jiu was significantly more capable compared to the time he had slain Mei Bashan.

nOne thing was certain. Di Jiu would no longer need Jue Zhan to plot against Mei Bashan if he were to tackle Mei Bashan.

n“Thank you, Daoists. I want to speak about the second thing right now. I hope that we could travel freely to and from the True Dominion and the Small Central World without any restrictions. Any suppression of the Small Central World using the resources of the True Dominion would be strictly prohibited, and no powers from the True Dominion would be allowed to bully the cultivators there.” Di Jiu set his eyes on the crowd after he finished his sentence.

nThe resource-deprived Small Central World had encountered great challenges while trying to attain the True Form Realm. There was only a Small Central World, but no real grade-nine elixir king. Although the cultivators from the True Dominion were not allowed to enter the Small Central Planet, many still did it without any reservations.

n“I agree with Daoist Di.” Bai Cangxing was the first to support Di Jiu, although he was the most prominent figure in the True Dominion.

nThe rest of the crowd agreed with Di Jiu after seeing his expression. It was idiotic to express a contrasting view at the moment.

n“Good, I’ll go and destroy the teleportation gate first.” Di Jiu did not raise any more requests. He just tore down the teleportation gate without hesitation.

nAs long as the True Dominion abolished the restrictions in the Small Central World, experts from the Small Central World would emerge sooner or later.

n…

nOnly the top-notch experts of the True Dominion knew what had happened in the Evil Beast Valley. In fact, after everyone had killed the expert in the valley together, all the cultivators involved had realized that the expert who had created the Life Transformation Array in the Evil Beast Valley had been no simple individual.

nOnly a fool would spread the fact that they had joined forces to get rid of a guy with a complicated background.

nAfter the incident in the Evil Beast Valley, Hu Burang was actually the first to leave by using the Immortal Ascension Array. Zhuo Changgeng needed more rest because of his severe injuries. Hence, his departure was postponed for a few months.

nHowever, the True Dominion did not settle down, as one could travel freely across the True Dominion and the Small Central World as long as one had the necessary spirit stones. Besides, the First Kun Protectorate and the Interstellar Protectorate were in chaos.

nEveryone knew that the protectorate lord of the First Kun Protectorate, Mei Bashan, had been killed by Di Jiu and the First Kun Protectorate had become the First Kun Protectorate once again. However, the young protectorate lord of the First Kun Protectorate, Jue Zhan, did not return to the city after taking revenge, thereby creating more havoc there.

nAs far as the Interstellar Protectorate was concerned, it was rumored that the protectorate lord had disappeared mysteriously. Bai Hong had been the only true expect in the Interstellar Protectorate, so his disappearance had made the place seem like an attractive piece of meat that everyone wanted a share of.

nDi Jiu, who was not interested in any of the fights over resources in the True Dominion, arrived at the Immortal Ascension Array with Xian Ze after opening up the passage between the True Dominion and the Small Central World.

nDi Di continued to train outside, so her cultivation level increased very fast. Huan Mingzi’s cultivation level also grew steadily after he took the Rainbow Immortal Peach and started training at the Galaxy Master Sect, which was rich with spirit Qi.

nDi Jiu was not worried about Huan Mingzi entering the Immortal World. While Di Di and Geng Ji were around, they could both participate in the True Dominion Genius Tournament. Judging from Di Di’s cultivation experience, he could be an expert in 100 years. The same applied to Geng Ji.

nIt would be odd if the two experts did not clinch the first and second place in the True Dominion Genius Tournament if they were to compete in it.

nAfter settling the matter in the True Dominion and the Small Central World, Di Jiu intended to enter the Immortal Ascension Array with Xian Ze this time.

nThe Immortal Ascension Array was shielded by a blurry mist that could not be penetrated by the Spiritual Force. Di Jiu felt assured, as he did not feel the aura of the Principal Spirit he had killed when he entered the Immortal Ascension Array with Xian Ze by using the Immortal Ascension Card.

nThey entered the Defense Array and walked past a 10,000-feet long path before they arrived before a gigantic hexagonal teleportation platform.

n“Such a strong aura!” exclaimed Xian Ze as he looked at the gigantic teleportation platform. He had seen all sorts of powerful arrays, but the sight of the Immortal Ascension Array made him realize that everything he had seen in the past could not compare to it.

nDi Jiu, who analyzed the array using his Spiritual Force, also exclaimed, “This Immortal Ascension Array was probably created by the array experts of the Immortal Cultivation World. It must have been the work of the experts of the Immortal World.”

nThe array was incredibly powerful, as even a level-nine king array master like him could not understand it.

n“Di Jiu, I’ll teleport first. Let’s find the expert of the Polar Night Continent if we end up in the same place. If we go to different places, we’ll stay in touch by using the communication pearl.” Xian Ze was filled with excitement and joy. He could not wait to tell the experts in the Immortal World who had ascended from the Polar Night Continent about its terrible state. At the same time, he felt an ardent yearning for the Immortal World.

n“Okay, we’ll do that.” Di Jiu could not determine whether the Immortal Ascension Array would send them to a designated location or random places, as its class was too high.
