Boom! A cracking sound that shook the heart and soul came from the endless curtain of violent swords that blasted at the edge of the chaos, and Di Jiu’s seven orifices spurted blood, his hair instantly turning grey and his face aged in the blink of an eye!
This moment was a billion years for Di Jiu. He had consumed all of his essence and longevity in this instant.
Ka-ching! The vastness and boundless chaos was torn apart by one of Di Jiu’s endless waves of swords. However, Di Jiu’s vitality and breath had been exhausted, and this boundless chaos was merely torn apart, not completely blown apart. At this moment, the boundless wave of sabre power had gradually faded, like a calm tail wave crashing on the shore, bringing forth a sigh of lost power.
Crack! There was another cracking sound, and the Heavenly Shao Blade, which had been with Di Jiu for almost his entire life, turned into pieces and tore apart inch by inch.
Di Jiu’s heart ached and he couldn’t help but shed tears.
These tears were not because he had not split this chaotic realm, nor were these tears because his body had turned old and his life was about to fade away! These tears were shed simply for the sake of his Heavenly Shaolin Blade!
Finally, as his life was about to dissipate, the Heavenly Shao Blade collapsed away before him. This blade had been born because of him, and this blade had died because of him.
But this Chaos One Realm, he, Di Jiu, had not opened it after all, his strength was still not enough after all, just a little bit short, a little bit ah. A sadness rose in Di Jiu’s heart, he couldn’t open this realm, he was going to turn into dust, the same as his Heavenly Shao Blade. No, not even a speck of dust would remain.
It was at this moment that Di Jiu fully understood the three machines of the ages.
The three machines, the wind and sand meditation sea was underneath, and the waves rolled the heavenly truth floating. Ninety thousand miles of blade, not a trace of dust in sight.
The lack of a trace of dust was not only a reference to the place where his Three Ages and the Moon were blasted, it was also a reference to Di Jiu himself. When he, Di Jiu, was unable to use the 90,000-mile wave of the sword curtain to blast everything beneath the sword’s power into nothingness, he, Di Jiu, would become nothingness, not even dust would be left behind.
Out of the infinite chaos, a voice seemed to come from it. The voice was like a heart drum, blasting deep into Di Jiu’s weary and fragile mind one after another.
“To open up this realm with a body sacrifice!
To perfect this realm with soul sacrifice!
To use the Dao sacrifice to prosper this realm!
……”
This kind of voice gave Di Jiu an impulse to cry out in a long, crazy voice, to sacrifice his body to open up this realm of mountains and rivers. He would sacrifice his soul to perfect the derivation of life in this realm. He will sacrifice his own dao to make this realm more and more prosperous!
In order to cleave the Sixth Blade, my longevity has burned out, and in order to come out of this chaos, my body has turned old.
Rather than go and die right away, I would rather use everything I have to sacrifice to this One Realm that I have opened up, so that this One Realm can grow. It was like that voice, which gave him a last piece of trust earlier before his fall.
Di Jiu’s autonomous will to cultivate alone for years and deal with endless hardships allowed him to have a trace of rhetorical questions remaining in the deepest part of his heart. He was asking himself, “Why is this? Why?
What did I use up my own life span, my own blood and vitality to split open this realm for? I am doing it to live, I am doing it to live freely, not to be a dowry for others.
Di Jiu let out a long whistle, “I, Di Jiu, can come **naked** and I can go **naked**. I can die, and I will not go and sacrifice my body to anything. I, Di Jiu, was born between universes and I will fall between universes, whether I am reincarnated or not. There is no one who can sway my reincarnation, no one who can sway what I am not willing to do! Using my body, using my Dao to sacrifice the one realm that I myself have cleaved, on what grounds? Reincarnation Bridge, give me a rise!”
Between Di Jiu’s open hands, the Reincarnation Bridge came out with a bang.
At this moment, even if Di Jiu were to enter his own Reincarnation Bridge to reincarnate, he would not respond to the Heavenly Dao and use his own body and soul to sacrifice a realm.
The ten realms of life and death, the six paths of self-reincarnation!
This reincarnation bridge is mine, no matter how many Dharma realms are constructed, in my reincarnation bridge, I can go to reincarnation at will, no one can sway me.
Di Jiu hunched over his old body and topped with pale hair, he stepped onto the Reincarnation Bridge.
The Reincarnation Bridge appeared in the midst of chaos, and Di Jiu stood on it and laughed, “Reincarnation Bridge, give me long! I, Di Jiu, will never sacrifice myself; if I, Di Jiu, reincarnate, everything that my Reincarnation Bridge crosses will be my Reincarnation Land.”
This realm of chaos was opened up by himself, trying to make himself sacrifice his body soul and dao to this realm was a dream. Even if he were to go to reincarnation, he would still use the Reincarnation Bridge to occupy more places, and all the places that the Reincarnation Bridge reached would be his land of Di Jiu Reincarnation.
There is no life here, no great dao, no rules, and no friends or family! Who am I to sacrifice to this world? I am not selfish, but no one can be selfish enough to take over everything that is mine. My Reincarnation Bridge is going to occupy more reincarnation places for me to reincarnate, for this realm of Chaos is opened up by me, though I have not yet opened it up completely.
The Reincarnation Bridge under Di Jiu’s Dao instantly soared, ten feet, a hundred feet, ten thousand feet, a hundred million feet ……
Even though Di Jiu’s Dao rhythm was fading, the Reincarnation Bridge was still soaring wildly.
Ka-ching! The Chaos Realm that had been blasted away by Di Jiu, but not completely, was torn apart by the Reincarnation Bridge. The Reincarnation Bridge continued to surge, but it slowly tore apart the Chaos Realm that Di Jiu’s slash had failed to split open.
Di Jiu’s remaining sliver of will caused the World Book to transform into its body to protect his entire body before communicating to Jian Mu.
Even though he knew that his chances of surviving were slim, Di Jiu would not fall on his own, let alone sacrifice himself. The World Book protected him in case he still had a chance of survival, and the World Book could block some of the chaotic blasts from the chaos.
Communicating with the Jian Mu was Di Jiu’s way of thinking just in case. The Jian Mu was the head of all woods, and it was also the thing that opened up the Chaos Universe. Who could be sure that the Jian Mu could not allow him to retain a trace of life?
……
In the midst of chaos, the pa*sage of years is even more unmarked.
The first time I saw this, I was able to get to the end of my life, but because of the wood, I was still able to keep a trace of life. As endless years pa*sed, Di Jiu’s Dao circumference fused with the chaos.
Without realising it, the rules of Chaos that Di Jiu had split open were captured by Di Jiu and fused into his Heavenly Circuits.
Because of the presence of Jian Mu, Di Jiu’s Heavenly Circuits became more and more rounded, and the vitality that he had burned up gradually flourished. Before he woke up, Di Jiu felt that he was about to grasp the most important thing in his path ……
But it was clear that it was right in front of him, right within his reach, but he just couldn’t catch it, and he couldn’t touch it.
I don’t know how much chaotic time has pa*sed!
That glimmer of something that Di Jiu had never been able to catch, under the accumulation of endless years, he finally caught the feeling of substance.
It was as if he had cut away his divine power when he was shaping his dao, as if he had cut away his rule dao when he was merging his dao!
Today, if he was to cross over to a higher level, he would have to once again cut away that which could not hold his third step.
It was not a divine ability or a Dao, but his world.
All along, his world had been the Ninth World, his Ninth World was a fusion of the Sacred Yin Pearl and his own will of the Sea of Consciousness and the Ninth Dao.
The hardness of the ninth world was better than that of an innate magic treasure, and it could even bring Jianmucheng to life.
Such a world, should he chop it off?
The hesitation was only for that moment, that moment of nostalgia, and Di Jiu decided without hesitation, to chop!
Almost at the same time as Di Jiu decided to chop, he opened his eyes.
There was still chaos around him, but this chaos was no longer the chaos he could not cultivate before, but a realm that he had split in half and then was topped by the Reincarnation Bridge, not turning into chaos again.
Di Jiu looked at his feet, he was standing on the Reincarnation Bridge, and everything was just as it had been at the moment he lost consciousness. The only difference was that the Reincarnation Bridge was now straddling the two ends of this chaotic one realm.
At the moment he opened his eyes, the voice that had been calling him to sacrifice disappeared without a trace. Di Jiu let out another long whistle as he vented his depression and stifled frustration, and likewise missed the Heavenly Shaolin Blade that he had already lost.
After a full incense stick of time had pa*sed, Di Jiu then waved his hand and rolled up the endless dao rhyme, shouting, “Chop for me!”
