“The Heart of the Blade layer?” Dong Right Jian shook his head, “I don’t know about that, maybe there is one after the ninety-ninth floor, but there is definitely none before the ninety-ninth floor.”
Di Jiu asked suspiciously, “Didn’t you say that the highest in the Five Continents Daoist Tower was only the ninety-fourth floor that Yan Taishan had ascended?”
Dong Youjian said disdainfully, “A long time ago, there were many strong people of the older generation who had climbed above the ninety-fourth floor, and there were also many who had climbed to the ninety-ninth floor. The ninety-fourth floor you are talking about is just the last ranking of the Five Continents Dao Tower. Don’t look at the difference between the ninety-fourth floor and the ninety-ninth floor as just five floors, the difference in strength therein is simply impossible to calculate.”
Di Jiu secretly said that it was really the same as what he thought, the ninety-fourth floor that Yan Ta Shan had ascended was nothing in the history of the Five Continents Dao Tower.
“Fellow Daoist Di Jiu, this is the Great Sword Formation Skill of my Sword Formation Sect. With you being able to ascend to the seventy-first floor at such a young age, I believe this jade slip is not a hardship for you.” Dong Youjian did not care what Di Jiu was thinking and handed a jade slip to Di Jiu.
Once Di Jiu took a look at this jade slip, he knew that it had a very long history. The mere aura of vicissitude emanating from the jade slip indicated that this jade slip was very uncomplicated.
Di Jiu was not polite, and after receiving the jade slip, he turned to look at the other five people and said, “Everyone, I do control a small trick to enter the upper levels of the Dao Tower. To put it bluntly, it’s actually worthless, and now Brother Dong and I are ready to head to the 72nd floor. If you all want to learn this little trick of mine as well, I am more than welcome to do so.”
Dong Right Jian didn’t say anything, the trick was Di Jiu’s, and Di Jiu could say whatever he wanted. As long as he could get to the eighty-first floor, then it would be a done deal.
Don’t look at the fact that the rest of the people at the seventy ground floor were very dismissive and even sneered in their hearts when Di Jiu said he would take Dong Youjian to the eighty ground floor before. But once Di Jiu asked to come to their heads, they didn’t think so anymore.
What if? What if Di Jiu could really have a trick to enter the seventy-second layer?
“Fellow Daoist Di really has a way to ascend to the higher levels of the Five Continents Dao Tower?” One of the cultivators couldn’t help but ask.
Di Jiu laughed, “This young master is true to his word, if there is no way, this young master is willing to refund the reward you paid.”
As he spoke Di Jiu took the opportunity to say what he wanted, it was fine for him to bring up, you naturally had to pay the remuneration.
For bringing the rest of the people up the Dao Tower together, this was something that Di Jiu had prepared for a long time ago. Otherwise, he would not have let his conversation with Dong Youjian be overheard by others. Di Jiu was sure that if he followed the means of sensing the basic laws of each layer, then it was really possible for him to ascend to the 108th layer.
Nowadays, the most that had been ascended in the history of the Five Continents Dao Tower was only the ninety-ninth floor, and it was definitely not a good thing that he had ascended to the 108th floor as a rootless and lowly casual cultivator.
Gai sh*tian’s words were still ringing in his ears. Gai sh*tian said that a cultivator had cultivated at the Five Continents Dao Tower for five years and then disappeared.
Any fool would know that the disappearance was a lie, being killed was the real thing. So when Di Jiu was planning to take Dong Youjian up there, he was already prepared to tell the world about this little trick.
Everyone knows about this tip, so they won’t make a move on me, right?
“I am Ling Isiao, a disciple of the Void Sword Sect, a nine-star sect, how much does Young Master Di intend to charge us for payment?” A short, stumpy, average looking man stepped forward and said with a hint of chill in his tone.
“How impressive, a nine-star sect.” Di Jiu gave a thumbs up and said, “This young man was worried that everyone came from a small clan and couldn’t afford to pay my spirit stones.”
Di Jiu had long been clear that those who could come to the seventy-first floor could never be from too small sects. If they were disciples from too small sects, this solution of his would not work at all.
“Fellow Daoist Di, I am Le Qiongyu from the seven-star sect, Star Luo Mountain. Can you say how much reward is needed to get this tip out?” A woman in red stood out and clasped her fist and spoke in a polite tone.
On the seventy-first floor plus Di Jiu and Dong Youjian, there were seven people in total, and there was only one woman, Le Qiongyu.
“One hundred million top quality spirit stones each.” Di Jiu was one finger deep.
“Haha, are you robbing? I’m afraid that all the spirit stones of everyone here combined are less than one hundred million.” Ling Yixiao laughed coldly and a sharp aura shot out from his eyes. He vaguely felt that what Di Jiu said was right, if Di Jiu couldn’t do it, then he definitely wouldn’t dare to use this way to cheat the spirit stones, because that would be seeking death.
Di Jiu said indifferently, “One is willing to fight, one is willing to suffer. Don’t say it so hard, this young man has never done anything to force people. I know you can’t get 100 million spirit stones, but you can have a down payment first, and just take out a loan later.”
“What do you mean?” A sturdy-looking youth frowned inquiringly, he simply couldn’t understand what Di Jiu was saying.
“It means that each of you will pay me 10 million spirit stones upfront, make an IOU for the later ones, and then pay me when you have it. The longer you delay, the higher the interest rate will be.” Di Jiu smiled heatedly.
In his heart, Di Jiu knew very well that he should not be able to get back the spirit stones at the back. At least he couldn’t get it back now, but he still had to do this business.
Not because he lacked the tens of millions of spirit stones, but because he had to tell everyone that it wasn’t a secret that he could climb to a higher level.
“Okay, I agree. When will the spirit stones be given?” The youth said without hesitation.
Di Jiu looked at the rest of the people, “Brother Dong’s payment is paid to me, the rest of my friends, are there any who disagree? If you agree, then sign up and then pay the first batch of spirit stones when you reach the seventy-second floor.”
“I agree, eight-star sect Axe King Hall disciples shall be one hundred.” A yellow-haired man stood up.
The strong young man who had spoken earlier looked at Di Jiu and smiled, “I also agree, Kun Clan Xuan Yuan Kong, I hope you are telling the truth.”
“I agree, Le Qiongyu, a disciple of the Seven Star Sect’s Star Luo Mountain.” The woman in red also said.
Ling Isoxiao of the Void Sword Sect swept a cold glance at Di Jiu, “I, Ling Isoxiao, also agree, as Brother Xuanyuan said, I hope you are telling the truth.”
The last man, who looked a little withered, smiled lamely and said to Di Jiu with a clasped fist, “Since everyone has agreed, I naturally agree too. Xin Qilun, a disciple of the eight-star sect Heavenly Medicine Valley.”
“Good, since everyone has agreed, I will tell you all for how I was able to come to the seventy-first floor easily.” After saying that, Di Jiu directly grabbed out a formation plate, “I was able to come to this layer mainly because of this formation plate.”
As he spoke, Di Jiu had already punched the seventy-one basic laws that he had perceived from the Five Continents Dao Tower into this array disc.
This array disc was not refined by him, but an evolution array disc refined by his master, Qian Fenghua. The main function was to teach Di Jiu the Dao of Formation and make Di Jiu’s Dao of Formation a further formation plate.
Qian Fenghua knew that he could not teach Di Jiu anything, and the only thing he could teach him could only be the Dao of Formation. Since Di Jiu had called him master, he simply gave Di Jiu a few array dao evolution array discs.
With Di Jiu’s current level of formation dao, he could only glimpse the skin of this formation disk. It could be said that this formation disc would be extremely helpful to Di Jiu’s future formation dao, but unfortunately Di Jiu could only take this formation disc out in order to save his life.
Compared to this formation plate given by his master, Qian Fenghua, Di Jiu was more eager to reach the 108th floor of the Five Continents Dao Tower. He had a premonition that once he ascended to the 108th floor and obtained the 108th basic dao, he would have a qualitative breakthrough.
The Dao of Formation could be studied slowly, and going to the Five Continents Dao Tower could only be done this once. As for what would happen ten years later, who could say more clearly?
“A formation disk?” Le Qiongyu looked at the formation disk Di Jiu held out in confusion, not understanding what Di Jiu meant.
“This is an immortal formation disk?” Other than Di Jiu here, Dong Youjian had the strongest level of formation dao, and he could see at a glance that Di Jiu’s formation disk was an item that exceeded the level of formation dao in the cultivation world.
“An immortal weapon?” The rest of the few people were shocked out loud, even the nine-star sects didn’t always have immortal artifacts. Every single immortal weapon, that was a treasure of the clan.
Di Jiu took a breath and said with a clasp of his fist, “That’s right, this is exactly an immortal weapon. This magic treasure was obtained by me not long ago at the Bay Night Lake. To be honest, I hadn’t originally planned to come to climb the Five Continents Dao Tower, and after I obtained this formation disk, I chose to come to the Five Continents Dao Tower in the first place, without any half-hearted hesitation. Everyone look at the words on the back of this formation disk ……”
As he spoke, Di Jiu turned the array plate over.
Sure enough, all of them saw a few words in ancient style faintly on the back of the array plate, Five Continents Daoist Tower.
Di Jiu believed that with these few words laid out by his level 9 King Formation Master, the few guys here who were only monks could still not see them.
“It really is the Dao Disk of the Five Continents Dao Tower? I seem to feel an aura of the rules of the Five Continents Dao Tower in it ……” Ling Isoxiao said in shock.
Seeing that the time had come, Di Jiu once again clasped his fist and said, “Everyone, I am taking out an immortal artifact, or a Dao Plate Immortal Artifact of the Five Continents Dao Tower, and ask you all if it is expensive to ask for 100 million spirit stones? Besides, I don’t necessarily need to work with you guys, I can find someone to work with just as well when I get to the 72nd floor.”
Xuanyuan Kong of the Kun Clan took the initiative to clasp his fist to Di Jiu and said, “Fellow Daoist Di, thank you very much, this is definitely not expensive. After we go out from the Five Continents Dao Tower, I, Xuanyuan Kong, promise to return the rest of the spirit stones to you.”
After saying that, Xuan Yuan Kong was the first to take out a ring and handed it to Di Jiu, “This is five million top grade spirit stones, and the only top grade spirit stones I have with me. There’s no need to wait until the 72nd floor, I’ll give it to you now.”
With Xuanyuan Kong in front of them, the rest of the people took out spirit stones and handed them to Di Jiu. Usually it was just two or three million top grade spirit stones, the most Ling Yixiao only took out six million spirit stones, and the rest each put down a note of indebtedness.
As for why Di Jiu took out his immortal weapon, the Five Continents Dao Plate, no one asked. Because everyone knew the reason, if Di Jiu didn’t take out the Five Continents Dao Plate, then Di Jiu would be surrounded by countless strong people when he came down from the top of the Five Continents Dao Tower. The fact that Di Jiu had brought them and also talked things out made Di Jiu less dangerous. Everyone knew about this matter, and there would be no more secrets.
This was why Di Jiu said before that he didn’t have to bring them with him, in fact Di Jiu could have found a few random disciples from the big clans to go up with him. The most crucial thing was, when they came out of the Five Continents Dao Tower, what did Di Jiu plan to do with this Five Continents Dao Plate.
