Crack! A soft cracking sound was heard from Di Jiu’s array flags as a void array door appeared in front of them. The void was very clear when it first appeared, yet it became blurry instantly.

“Ah, the array door really appeared!” Jie Huang shouted. He started suspecting that Di Jiu was more than just an Immortal Array Great-Master.

Di Jiu drove the flying boat into the array door immediately without any delay. Then, the array door disappeared very quickly and the void returned to its original state.

The flying boat stopped after entering the array door.

“The Immortal Spirit Qi is so rich. Hmm… This is a hall.” Jie Huang saw Di Jiu stopping the flying boat right outside the entrance of the hall.

The hall was really gigantic, so the flying boat seemed like an insignificant dot when it landed outside the entrance.

“Jie Huang, put away the flying boat. All of you walk behind me.” Di Jiu was the first to jump out of the flying boat and walk to the hall door. There were no obstructions at the entrance of the hall.

The Immortal Spirit Qi was indeed very rich, so the group could feel it even before they entered the hall.

Di Jiu used his Spiritual Force to scan the place, yet he could not sense the location of the hall because even his level-five Immortal Force could not work in this place.

Di Jiu entered the hall after ensuring that it was safe. The others followed closely behind him.

“What a huge hall…” Di Jiu thought to himself. The hall was at least 10,000 square kilometers, and the Immortal Spirit Qi inside the hall was even richer. Di Jiu felt as though he was standing on top of an immortal meridian.

His only thought was that this place was ideal for cultivation.

Although a man was sitting in the middle of the hall, he seemed dead. Next to him was something that looked like half a broken turtle shell.

Di Jiu realized immediately that the turtle shell next to the man and the ancient turtle shell drawing he had were actually parts of the same piece. It seemed like the ancient turtle shell drawing had been left behind by this man.

“Big Brother, my father said that these ancient experts can stay alive as long as they have a physical body. Plus, they like to possess,” Jie Huang said cautiously when he saw the man.

Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force landed on the man without hesitation as he said immediately, “This man indeed has some life-force, but he can no longer possess anything.”

Di Jiu would not have dared to say such things in the past. However, now that the Ninth Dao law was in his Spiritual Sea, he could feel instantly that the man’s life-force did not have the right foundation for possession. This residual life-force was not a surviving soul, but a stubborn soul that denied death.

Di Jiu took the turtle shell fragments next to the man into his hand and scanned them by using his Spiritual Force.

“I am Emperor Chu Paihuai. You have to take revenge for me if you want to inherit my powers. My enemies are Ye Xi from the Immortal Continent of Mystic Colors and his cultivation partner, Chu Yuzhi. Kowtow 36 times to inherit all of my powers…”

Di Jiu sneered and threw the turtle shell fragment at Jie Huang.

Jie Huang took the turtle shell fragment and scanned it with his Spiritual Force to see the contents clearly. Then, he exclaimed, “His enemy is actually Ye Xi?”

“Why, do you know this person?” Di Jiu asked in surprise.

Jie Huang nodded. “I definitely know Ye Xi, although I have never seen him before. I guess everyone knows him… Big Brother, how could you not know Ye Xi?”

Di Jiu looked at Jie Huang speechlessly. “Why do I have to know this person?”

Jie Huang explained, “Ye Xi is the best expert in the Four Great Immortal Continents and a cultivator of the Immortal Continent of Mystic Colors. My father once said that Ye Xi could have surpassed the Immortal Emperor Realm, which is a very mysterious realm. Even my father does not know much about it, so how could I?”

After saying those words, Jie Huang added sadly, “When I got this fragment, I thought that we had an ancient almighty cave above. Never did I expect that it would be just a fellow from the Immortal Continent of Mystic Colors. Darn it!”

Di Jiu pointed to the surroundings and said, “That’s not entirely true. The Immortal Spirit Qi here is sufficient for us to cultivate. Unless I’m wrong, there is a top-notch immortal array around the hall that probably could not have been set up without dozens of immortal meridians. Other than the high-grade immortal meridians, there may also be supreme-grade immortal meridians. Why else do you think the Immortal Spirit Qi here would be so rich?”

Jie Huang clapped his hands. “Yes, Big Brother! In that case, we don’t even need to kowtow in front of this fellow. We can just cultivate here. Thanks to your array formations, we don’t have to be afraid, even if there is a confinement array here.”

Di Jiu sneered. “Just take a look at the floor and you will know that Chu Paihuai wasn’t a good fellow either.”

Jie Huang scanned the floor with his Spiritual Force but didn’t see anything. However, his facial expression changed very quickly. There seemed to be white beads scattered around the hall. Jie Huang realized that these beads were bits and pieces of human bones the moment his Spiritual Force scanned them.

“So many human bone fragments… What happened?” Jie Huang asked in horror.

Black Fire snorted. “This old fellow deceived many people by using several ancient turtle shell drawings and trapped them all with the confinement array. Then, he killed them.”

Little Tree shuddered and said, “I should be fine since I am a demon tree.”

Black Fire sneered. It was too lazy to entertain Little Tree. Little Tree finally realized that it was Di Jiu’s beast companion. It would be doomed if anything happened to Di Jiu.

Di Jiu said emotionlessly, “All living things would get trapped if they came here.”

“Little Tree, you better kowtow. The confinement array will only open when you do that.” Jie Huang looked at Little Tree with evil intentions, as it was the only member of the team that he could bully.

Di Jiu waved. “This is not the confinement array. It’s a lethal poison. Anyone who entered the hall would be poisoned. It seems like this bastard had placed countless ancient turtle shell drawings like the one we have.”

“Big Brother, what do we do now?”Jie Huang looked at Di Jiu. After all, the only thing he could do in situations like this was escape.

However, he knew very well that there would not be so many bone fragments around if things were that simple.

“I can detoxify the poison.” Di Jiu smiled. However, he would have been helpless if he hadn’t had the Ninth Dao law. He was not afraid of the poison now that he had the Ninth Dao law, as even the most powerful poison was just a type of order.

If Mo Yuxuan had not lost her life-force because of the Heavenly Fire Spirit and been forced to sustain her life by using the Rainbow Immortal Peach, Di Jiu could have saved her by using the Ninth Dao law.

Everything, including life-force, was formed by orders. However, life-force involved the time order, so Di Jiu could not understand the time order by using the Ninth Dao law to sustain Mo Yuxuan’s life, no matter how powerful he was. Perhaps, one day, he would be able to do that, but that was impossible for now.

Di Jiu raised his hand and patted Jie Huang. The poison that filled Jie Huang’s body broke down and transformed into Immortal Spirit Qi before it disappeared into the void.

Di Jiu transformed the poison in his body into Immortal Spirit Qi and absorbed it.

As if he had felt that the poison left behind by him had not affected the newcomers, the man sitting on the floor sighed. Then, his body broke down and disappeared without a trace.

“That fellow is gone?” Jie Huang was utterly shocked when the male cultivator disappeared in front of him.

“He has died this time around. Even the last bit of his life-force is gone. This is the first time he saw his poison lose its effect. Thus, he could not press on anymore.” Di Jiu, who did not care about Chu Paihuai’s life or death, continued to remove the poison from Mo Yuxuan, Black Fire and Little Tree.

“It’s a pity that we lost that ring. Chu Paihuai must have been a top-notch expert if he was an immortal emperor who had a feud with Ye Xi. His ring must have contained lots of good stuff,” Jie Huang said with some disappointment.

He had seen Chu Paihuai’s ring just now, yet it was suddenly gone. Chu Paihuai had disappeared into thin air and the ring had exploded. Therefore, all its contents had disappeared when the space had been compressed.

“This is a top-notch place for cultivation. It doesn’t matter if we can take the immortal spirit meridian or not. We can still cultivate here for some time,” Di Jiu said without hesitation.
