“The Vast Great Market has five levels, and the various rule ores in it are all extremely valuable materials. The deeper you go, the greater the value. But with every layer deeper into the Vast Expanse Ruins, there is one more layer of danger. Rumour has it that up until now, no one has ever entered the fourth level and come out, and even those who have entered the third level are still rare.
The rule ores in the Great Vast Market are very valuable, but the most valuable are the Law Fragments. The value of the Laws in the Vast Market will be immeasurable once they have coalesced into fragments. However, Law Fragments are the least in the first level, almost none, and the vast majority of Law Fragments are found in the second level ……”
Di Jiu walked out of the Great Hall only after reading the introduction jade slip of this Vast Great Market in detail. He had come here neither to cultivate divine abilities, nor for law fragments or rule ores. He had only come here for one purpose, and that was to shape his dao.
From the Great Hall, Di Jiu walked for half a column of time before he saw the entrance to a huge grand formation. As soon as Di Jiu walked at the entrance of the great formation, he felt the aura of the vast and boundless Heaven and Earth rule fragments; he could not be considered to have truly entered the first level of the Vast Great Market here. This Vast Great Market was indeed true to its name.
The four grouped cultivators followed behind Di Jiu, and they were all stunned when they saw Di Jiu cross the entrance of the Great Formation and enter the Vast Great Market by himself.
“This person wouldn’t enter the Vast Expanse Ruins alone, would he?” A cultivator finally understood and asked in astonishment and uncertainty.
“It should be a newcomer, the rule fluctuations on his body are not obvious, and his killing aura is not strong.” His companion answered his words.
All four of them shook their heads and didn’t bother with Di Jiu anymore. A guy as new as Di Jiu, entering the Vast Expanse Market by himself, would be a 100% send off to his death, there had never been any exceptions. Perhaps many days later, they could see Di Jiu again, but at that time, Di Jiu should be a five element beast that had lost its spiritual wisdom.
……
As soon as they entered the Vast Market, the violent aura of the rules of heaven and earth swept over, and even a cultivator like Di Jiu, who practiced rule-based techniques, had a brief moment of discomfort.
Di Jiu quickly adjusted his rule circumference, and soon he realised that in this place the rules were not lost, but broken. There were all kinds of rules in the heavens and the earth, but all kinds of rules were incomplete. In such a place apart from him, I was afraid that there would not be a second cultivator who could cultivate.
As Di Jiu walked deeper into the Vast Ruins, he felt the various fragments of broken rules in the Vast Ruins and then continuously revised his rule circumference.
A roar of beasts came from the distance, but Di Jiu acted as if he didn’t hear it, as he was minding his own business of deducing his rule dao.
When a murderous moment swept over, Di Jiu opened his hand and the Heavenly Shao Blade transformed into a blade mane and slashed out.
“Poof!” A large grayish-yellow blood mist spurted out, followed by the corpse of a demonic beast landing on the ground.
Di Jiu stopped, this demonic beast looked just like an earth dog, not half unique. It was just that after this demonic beast was killed, there was still some tattered heaven and earth law aura in its breath.
It looked like this should be the Five Elemental Beast. Di Jiu didn’t bother with the corpse of this Five Elemental Beast, which was worthless to him.
The Tian Sha Blade was carried on his back, and Di Jiu continued to deduce his rule dao.
Chug-chug-chug! A chaotic sound of footsteps came and Di Jiu stopped once again, and the next moment, at least hundreds of Five Elemental Beasts appeared in his divine mind.
These five element beasts were in different shapes, some were similar to the shape of the ones he had just killed, similar to earth dogs, and there were also one-horned leopards and three-legged crows in general.
This time, Di Jiu could see clearly that these Five Element Beasts carried different law auras. There were water attributes, wood attributes, earth attributes and so on.
Di Jiu sacrificed his Tian Sha Blade, while outlining the law formation flags around them. With so many five element beasts, he could only escape if he didn’t use the trap and kill formation.
In a place like this, where there were fragments of Heaven and Earth rules everywhere, Di Jiu’s speed in outlining the Law Formation flags was even swifter. In a short period of time, Di Jiu outlined a large number of Law Formation Flags, and at the same time, condensed this large number of Law Formation Flags into a large defensive formation.
Before Di Jiu could outline a strangulation formation again, more than a hundred Five Elemental Beasts had already pounced over.
Before Di Jiu’s Tian Sha Blade could form a divine power, he felt the rules of heaven and earth around him become even more chaotic. Without the rules of the circumference, Di Jiu was afraid that he would have difficulty forming his Dao of the Blade divine ability.
The Heavenly Shade Blade formed instantly, and the thousands of feet of heavenly curtain swept out, and all the space underneath it was under Di Jiu’s Heavenly Shade Blade.
That brief jade slip had said that the five elemental beasts in the first level of the Vast Expanse Market were basically all spiritless. Di Jiu believed that with his defensive formation and then the Heavenly Curtain Blade, he would definitely be able to sweep a large area in one go.
It was only that the Heavenly Curtain had just formed when it started to collapse.
Di Jiu himself cultivated all the rule dao, and among his dao divine abilities, there was also the Cleaving Rule Blade. At this moment, as soon as his celestial curtain shattered, Di Jiu was just shocked.
These Five Elemental Beasts could actually tear apart his Heavenly Curtain Blade Divine Aptitude rules, causing his Heavenly Curtain Blade Divine Aptitude to shatter, which was simply similar to his Cleaving Rule Divine Aptitude.
No wonder many cultivators would fall away here, Di Jiu was sure that if he wasn’t cultivating the Rule Dao, there was only one way for him to go at this time, to escape.
If he couldn’t transport his divine thoughts, or if he was already surrounded by this group of five elemental beasts, then he couldn’t even escape, he could only choose to put up a fight and die.
However, Di Jiu cultivated the Great Dao of Rules, and the Heavenly Curtain Blade that was about to dissipate only shook for a moment before it coalesced again, and the Heavenly Curtain swept out, a large spray of blood of various colours spurted out.
With just this single slash, Di Jiu had swept away the lives of a dozen Five Elemental Beasts.
Seemingly sensing Di Jiu’s power, the rest of the Five Element Beasts even hissed crazily, then pounced on Di Jiu desperately.
Di Jiu, who was hiding at the birth gate of the defence formation, was also overwhelmed by this kind of aura. He forcibly burned his essence blood to break free from this suppression, and once again, his Heavenly Shao Blade turned into a twisted blade rift and tore out.
This was his second Cracking Blade, since the formation of the Dao of the Blade with the Cracking Rule and the Overgap Blade, Di Jiu rarely used the Cracking Blade, but this time Di Jiu did not hesitate to cast out the Cracking Blade.
The twisted blade pattern of the Rift Blade had just coalesced before it tended to collapse once again, and Di Jiu could clearly feel the divine laws of the Rift Blade starting to be destroyed and shattered.
With one experience, Di Jiu’s Heavenly Shao Blade shook once again, and the cracked blade that was about to collapse coalesced again and rolled towards the group of Five Elemental Beasts.
Dozens more Five Elemental Beasts’ corpses were split by the Cracking Blade, and the rules of heaven and earth became even more chaotic. Despite the two slashes, it was just that this group of Five Elemental Beasts was just too strong and Di Jiu felt that his Yuan Power was somewhat insufficient, he swallowed two pills and before he could offer a third slash, his great Law Defence Formation let out a click and shatter.
The next moment, seven or eight Five Elemental Beasts pounced on Di Jiu.
At this moment, Di Jiu no longer had any semblance of defence in front of him, so how could Di Jiu think of anything else, as his Heavenly Shao Blade tore out frantically, while also blasting out with a fist.
“Pffffffff!” One Five Elemental Beast was torn apart by Di Jiu, and two Five Elemental Beasts were even blasted with a connected bloody hole under Di Jiu’s peak gathering.
Without the defensive array, a large portion of Di Jiu’s shoulder was grabbed away by one Five Elemental Beast, and the other Five Elemental Beast spewed out a water arrow that went straight through Di Jiu’s front chest.
Di Jiu flew backwards and fell to the ground, spurting out a stream of blood with his mouth open.
Very soon, Di Jiu felt that something was wrong, an unknown law aura was raging in his body, surprisingly fusing with his rule circumference, rapidly integrating into his meridians and then penetrating into the sea of consciousness.
His mind even blurred a little, and Di Jiu was shocked in his heart, he immediately understood what was going on, this must be the poison of the Five Elements Beast. If one was poisoned with this poison and there was no way to get rid of it, one would a*similate into a new Five Element Beast.
