Chapter 321: Mo Yuxuan Was Standing Motionless on the Ruins

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

A tall, slim man arrived outside the City Lord Manor shortly. He said respectfully, “Qiu Zhen from the Great Fortune Immortal City greets the Immortal City Lord and Deacon Yang.”

“Enter,” said Gai Jinxuan calmly, completely concealing his excitement.

“Yes,” the man replied before he walked in.

Gai Jinxuan looked at Qiu Zhen in surprise. The aura exuded from Qiu Zhen indicated that he had stayed in the Immortal World for quite some time now, for some of his Quintessential Essence had been converted to Immortal Essence.

However, a faint blood aura was exuded from Qiu Zhen. He had evidently been refining the Blood Essence of cultivators in the Sunset Immortal World.

Gai Jinxuan, who did not care what cultivating methods Qiu Zhen used, asked coolly, “Did you say that you encountered a Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple?”

Qiu Zhen hastily bowed and replied, “Immortal City Lord, I’m certain that it was a Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple. Her aura was pure and filled with nirmala. The cultivation technique she used to attack must have been from the Virtuous Nirvana Dao Manual. At the time, she said her name was Mo Yuxuan.”

Qiu Zhen was actually filled with regret, for he would have been able to capture Mo Yuxuan if he had used some sort of scheme. Unfortunately, he had been too excited about seeing Mo Yuxuan. She was a Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciple who possessed a Nirmala Spirit Body. He would definitely be able to easily attain the Perfected Immortal Realm if he successfully captured her. There was even a slim chance of him attaining the Golden Immortal Realm.

He had been so excited that he had arrogantly thought that he would be able to capture Mo Yuxuan, who had just arrived in the Immortal World, as his Quintessential Essence had been partially converted to Immortal Essence. He had discovered just how powerful Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciples were after they had started fighting and realized how formidable the Virtuous Nirvana Dao Manual was.

He had been unable to win the fight against Mo Yuxuan, despite attacking her sneakily and injuring her severely in the process. He would most likely have died in her hands, if it had not been for the fact that she did not like to kill people.

“When did you encounter her? Where is she now?” asked Gai Jinxuan calmly, all the while suppressing his impulse.

Qiu Zhen answered, “I saw her two years ago. She asked me in an obscure manner where the Virtuous Nirvana Sect ruins were. I believe that she must have gone to the ruins.”

“Why didn’t you seek her out if you knew where she had gone?” Gai Jinxuan yearned to head over to the Virtuous Nirvana Sect ruins immediately.

Qiu Zhen thought silently, “Would I be here if I could defeat her?” Those words were something he dared not say out loud. “Immortal City Lord, I have heard that I could become a citizen of the Great Fortune Immortal City if I provided you with the news on the Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciples. That’s why I quickly came here to report this news to you.”

Gai Jinxuan nodded his head and said, “You may leave. Qianxiu, bring Qiu Zhen along and help him find a lodging.”

“Yes,” replied Yang Qianxiu hurriedly before leaving the shabbily-furnished City Lord Manor with Qiu Zhen.

Gai Jinxuan’s eyes started shining with burning desire the moment Yang Qianxiu and Qiu Zhen left. He exited the manor through the back door and left the Great Fortune Immortal City secretly.

The information on the whereabouts of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect was no secret to the cultivators who had come to the Immortal World a long time ago. Gai Jinxuan had sought information on the Virtuous Nirvana Sect on multiple occasions, so he knew where the sect ruins were. He had to head over there immediately.

…

After attaining the Domain Realm, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force did not advance to a new level. Instead, the range it could extend to increased by 3-4 times.

Di Jiu had traversed over an unknown distance in a few years after leaving Bei Chutai and the Thearch Robe Sea behind. He had taken note of some unique places down on a jade scroll.

During these few years, all he had seen were either ruins, desolate deserts or dried oceans and swamps. He had not seen any places where he could live and cultivate.

The description “sunset in the Immortal World” was too fitting.

However, Di Jiu had never once contemplated the notion of giving up. Over the past few years, he had been searching for a place to construct his home while researching his Array Dao.

The Immortal Spirit Qi of the Immortal World was scattered and the light from providence no longer shone on the Immortal World. These factors did not affect Di Jiu much, for Di Jiu possessed a Quintessential World. Inside the Quintessential World were more than 100 supreme-grade spirit meridians and one high-grade Herb King Spirit Meridian.

He might not be able to cultivate, but these spirit meridians could provide him with a continuous source of Spirit Qi. Furthermore, he also possessed a Golden Dao Law which he could use anytime he wished to. His cultivation level had not improved much over the years, yet his cultivation foundation had become stabler.

The improvement in his Array Dao had been the fastest. The light from providence shining on the Immortal World no longer existed, but the Immortal World laws still existed. Di Jiu’s Array Dao had been inherited from Qian Fenghua, who had been originally an Immortal World expert. This meant that the Array Dao knowledge imparted was not out-of-place there.

Over the past few years, Di Jiu had already reached the ranks of a level-one Immortal Array Master, although he was only able to set up the lowest level of level-one Immortal Arrays.

The lowest level of a Fortune Gathering Immortal Array was only level one. Logically speaking, Di Jiu could already create a level-one Fortune Gathering Immortal Array. However, he was aware that such a Fortune Gathering Immortal Array was useless now that he had become a level-one Immortal Array Master.

In Di Jiu’s opinion, a true Fortune Gathering Immortal Array surpassed the average level-nine Great Immortal Arrays and was able to gather the true Dao law and ensure that the light from providence shone on the Immortal World. According to Bei Chutai, a low-level Fortune Gathering Immortal Array was able to let cultivators absorb some Immortal Spirit Qi within and cultivate with great difficulty.

Rather than describing the creation of such a Fortune Gathering Immortal Array as setting up a place where cultivators could cultivate, saying that it was a place to let cultivators who were unable to cultivate agglomerate would be more appropriate. These cultivators no longer had to worry that they would be killed and refined by others while wandering around alone in the Immortal World. Additionally, their state of mind would also remain intact. This was because, if they wandered around for too long a time, they would encounter a lot of bloodshed and desolation, which could adversely affect their state of mind.

It was not because Di Jiu’s Array Dao or the Immortal Arrays he could set up were inferior to others’ that he could only set up level-one Immortal Arrays. On the contrary, the Immortal Arrays he created far surpassed the ordinary Immortal Arrays of the same level. However, he did not have any immortal crystals on him and he could not utilize the Immortal Spirit Qi in the Immortal World either. The Spirit Origin of all the Immortal Arrays he set up was made of Spirit Stones.

It was considered very impressive to be able to create a level-one Immortal Array with a Spirit Origin constituting of Spirit Stones.

After experimenting on the Immortal Arrays for many years, Di Jiu was aware that he needed immortal crystals before he could advance to a higher-rank Immortal Array Master. Otherwise, this feat would be extremely difficult to accomplish.

On this day, Di Jiu did what he had done in the past. He expanded his Spiritual Force to its furthest distance and started searching for the direction he could advance toward.

A figure rushed past and brushed along the edges of Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force range. The moment of contact was short, but Di Jiu was able to determine that this cultivator was a Perfected Immortal cultivator, for he had sensed the fluctuations of his Immortal Essence.

The Immortal World he was currently in was filled with scattered Immortal Spirit Qi, but the Spirit Qi could not be absorbed for cultivating purposes. Since one could not absorb the Immortal Spirit Qi, one would naturally not be able to convert the Immortal Spirit Qi into Immortal Essence.

That was why Di Jiu moved over without hesitation when he crossed paths with a Perfected Immortal cultivator. He needed to ask how that cultivator had managed to convert their Quintessential Essence into Immortal Essence.

A Perfected Immortal would also not be able to escape from the detection of Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force.

In just a short moment, the figure of the Perfected Immortal cultivator became distinct in Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force range. That person might be a Perfected Immortal cultivator, but his Spiritual Force was weaker than Di Jiu’s. Thus, he failed to sense Di Jiu’s arrival and continued to advance forward anxiously in a hurry.

However, Di Jiu was looking stupefied at the stretch of ruins that appeared before his eyes. He had suddenly seen a familiar face. It was Mo Yuxuan.

Mo Yuxuan did not have any liveliness in her at the moment. Her eyes seemed blank and dull, and she was covered in blood. There was a huge, slanted wound at her chest area, while her clothes were hanging tattered on her body.

Some blood seemed to still be flowing from her wounds. Her feet were bare, and she looked like a vagrant who had been roaming around for many years.

The fly-whisk at her waist was completely bare, creating a mournful picture.

Mo Yuxuan was a lady he would never forget after their first meeting. Only Qin Yin could compare to her in terms of beauty. However, Mo Yuxuan was superior in terms of liveliness and natural refined disposition.

What Di Jiu was most impressed by was the sect Mo Yuxuan was in. She was a member of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect. This sect was selfless and loving, both qualities that made Di Jiu respect and admire it.

Di Jiu would not abandon Mo Yuxuan, no matter what she had experienced.

Before Di Jiu could reach her, he discovered that the Perfected Immortal cultivator was lunging towards Mo Yuxuan. Enraged, Di Jiu cast the Spiritual Force escape technique and landed in front of Mo Yuxuan instantly.

That Perfected Immortal handprint grabbed at Mo Yuxuan almost at the same moment that Di Jiu landed in front of her.

Di Jiu punched out without hesitation.

Boom! His fist and the handprint clashed. A violent explosion was created by the clash of Quintessential Essence and Immortal Essence. A deep ravine formed between Di Jiu and the Perfected Immortal cultivator.

The Perfected Immortal cultivator was sent flying before he landed on the ground, staring in astonishment at Di Jiu. Di Jiu’s meridians seemed to be burning, and he felt a lordly impulse to fight. He wanted to charge up and engage in a huge battle with that Perfected Immortal cultivator.

Di Jiu blocked the violent Immortal Essence while the residual aura made Mo Yuxuan’s clothes flutter. Although Mo Yuxuan still looked like a vagrant, this aura made her look fairy-like at the moment.

Di Jiu’s heart sank when he sensed with his Spiritual Force Mo Yuxuan’s lack of a reaction. Her current state was very similar to the way he had stood motionless at the Thearch Robe Sea. However, he did not know how long Mo Yuxuan would remain like this.

The reason why he had stood beside the Thearch Robe Sea for so long was because he had been influenced by the desolate state of the Immortal World and had also gained insight into his own Domain Realm. However, Mo Yuxuan was different. Her mental state had evidently suffered a severe blow and she was not far off from a Qi Deviation.
