Among the outer Void Castles leading to the Void City, the Shadow Void Fortress was the most famous one. The Cang Xu Dao Yi Meeting here was even more famous in this side of the Void, and some top-notch treasures would often appear at the Cang Xu Dao Yi Meeting.
Back when the Fort Master of the Shadow Void Fort was a half-step hybrid, the Shadow Void Fort was extremely prosperous. Now that Lou Huon, the Fort Master of Shadow Void Fort, had crossed over into the true Mixed Yuan realm, Shadow Void Fort was even more famous.
At this moment, in the great hall of the Shadow Void Fortress’s meeting hall, there were six men sitting. If Di Jiu were here, he would be able to recognise at least three of them.
The first one was naturally the one he was looking for, Tao Chuanxun. Apart from Tao Chuanxun, there was Fan Yuan who had not been heard from since he left the Dao Fruits Tower Square, and then there was Kun Biao, the Kun Peng Clan powerhouse who wanted to take away Di Jiu’s lightning bolt.
Lou Huon, the Fortress Master of Shadow Void Fort, was sitting on the main seat, but his heart was as uncomfortable as eating flies.
Originally, he and Dao Chuanxun had met at first sight, otherwise he would not have kept Dao Chuanxun in Shadow Void Fortress for so many years. Now, however, he felt a bit disgusted with Tao Chuanxun.
Because of Dao Chuanxun, his Shadow Void Fortress was about to face a great disaster.
The reason for this was naturally that Di Jiu, who was looking for Tao Chuanxun and had heard that he would soon arrive at Shadow Void Fortress. However, before Di Jiu arrived at Shadow Void Fortress, three strong members of the Kun Peng Clan and Fan Yuan also arrived at Shadow Void Fortress.
The purpose of the Kun Peng trio and Fan Yuan’s visit to the Shadow Void Fortress was to kill Di Jiu, but he, Lou Hui, was not willing to get involved in this mess.
What kind of person was Di Jiu? It was rumoured that he was still at the Dao Yuan realm when he killed Xiang Mu of the Tian Mu Clan. It was enough that a Dao Yuan realm cultivator could kill a late Mixed Yuan stage, but he was also a Dao Yuan Dan Saint, so he would not offend such a person unless he was stupid. He could not afford to offend such a person either.
Back then, his son had once offended a cultivator called Ye Mo, and if it wasn’t for Ye Mo’s dislike of killing, I’m afraid that his Shadow Void Fort would have disappeared into this side of the void a long time ago. And this Di Jiu was rumoured to be the same genius and as strong as the one surnamed Ye back then.
By helping Fan Yuan of the Kun Peng Clan and the Demon Clan, Shadow Void Fortress would likely suffer an undeserved disaster in the future. If he didn’t help, then Shadow Void Fort would suffer an undeserved calamity now.
Lou Huun was bitter in his heart, and in fact, Tao Chuanxun was just as bitter in his heart.
Not to mention that he and Di Jiu were from the same place, and that he was the only cultivator left of those who had come from the Sea of Emptiness at that time. Even if he and Di Jiu did not come from the same place, he did not want to offend a strong person like Di Jiu.
What’s more, he knew what Di Jiu had come to do with him.
Both Lou Huen and Inchuan Xuan could only keep their displeasure in their hearts, but did not dare to say it out loud. To the two of them, the two half-step Hedao in front of them, one in full mixed Yuan and one in late mixed Yuan that was so that they didn’t even have half a chance to resist.
“Master Lou, when that Di Jiu comes over later, you just need to introduce Di Jiu into the Shadow Void Fortress, and outside we will activate the trap and kill formation. You won’t be needed for what happens afterwards. Don’t worry, when this matter is over, your Shadow Void Fort will gain the friendship of my Demon Clan and Kun Peng Clan, and in the future, no matter what matters, you can seek our help.” Fan Yuan obviously saw that Lou Huun didn’t quite want to go against Di Jiu.
Lou Huun sighed, a low cultivation level is a molehill. Fan Yuan of the Demon Clan had long known that Tao Chuan Xuan was here with him and was not alarmed by him, instead, he and the Kun Peng Clan’s strongman had unobtrusively set up a top-notch trapping and killing formation outside his Shadow Void Fortress. If the other party hadn’t said it, he really wouldn’t have known that the Shadow Void Fortress had been set up with a trapping and killing formation.
……
However, Di Jiu stopped and did not continue to cross into the Shadow Void Fort range.
If it was just a mere level seven divine formation emperor, he might not be able to see the situation in the outer void of the Shadow Void Fort at all. Di Jiu, however, was someone who could set up a great formation with the help of a Law Formation Flag, and as soon as he arrived, he could see that the rules of heaven and earth in this side of the void had changed.
As his divine thoughts penetrated in, countless concealing formation flags appeared in the void.
Di Jiu’s heart sank, and his face turned a little ugly. A mere fortress master of the Shadow Void Fort dared to count on him like this?
This was not right, and Di Jiu quickly came to a clear understanding. Not to mention that he had no grudge against the Shadow Void Fortress Master, even if he did, the Shadow Void Fortress Master wouldn’t dare to lay a hand on him.
The only possibility was that someone knew he would come to Shadow Void Fortress and set up a net to catch him here. Who would do that? No, it should be who would dare to do so?
Apart from the Kun Peng Clan, it would be the Demon Clan, and it was likely that the Kun Peng Clan and the Demon Clan had joined forces to do this. If it was the Kun Peng Clan joining in, Di Jiu didn’t want to go in and get killed.
Di Jiu knew only too well how strong the Kun Peng tribe was. Back then, that Kun Ruo was enough for him to eat, not to mention the fact that there was no way that Kun Ruo would come here alone this time.
Given Di Jiu’s temperament, he was tempted to set up a Counter Strangulation Formation here and change the other side’s trapping and killing formation.
But Di Jiu still had his wits about him, as long as the other side came with another strong person with a similar cultivation level as Kun Broiling, plus a few more late Mixed Yuan stage, even if he set up a great formation here, it would be useless. Unless he could really set up a level eight or even a level nine divine formation.
Di Jiu didn’t need to go in to see, he knew that at this moment, the Kun Peng Clan’s strongmen and the Demon Clan’s strongmen were waiting for him at the Shadow Void Fortress. This trapping and killing formation was also set up a long time ago, so it should be because Fan Yuan had investigated Tao Chuanxun and knew that Tao Chuanxun and he came from the same place, and he might be looking for Tao Chuanxun.
As for the Void City, I am afraid that the moment he set foot in the Void City, he was already known to Fan Yuan.
But Di Jiu didn’t want to leave like this, he only had a boundary splitting talisman with him. If he wanted to go back now, he could only ask Tao Chuanxun. Inao Chuanxun and the others had probably made plans for many years in order to come to the Void City, so they should know something about the situation.
Thinking of this, Di Jiu simply used the Law Formation Flag to outline a concealment spell formation and then concealed himself inside. He just didn’t believe that these guys would wait here for the rest of their lives.
Di Jiu, who was hiding in the concealment spell formation, didn’t waste any time and was also constantly inscribing the Law Formation Flags. If these guys left this place, he would enter the Shadow Void Fortress as fast as he could to take away Tao Chuan Seek. The reason for carving these law formation flags was that he was worried that these guys would suddenly unleash the trap and kill formation after he entered.
Once he carved the law formation flags, the opponent’s trapping and killing formation would become his, or at least unable to trap him.
Time pa*sed in this kind of consumption and waiting, and in the blink of an eye, ten days had pa*sed. Di Jiu had also long finished carving the Law Formation Banner, and was now just quietly hiding outside the Shadow Void Fortress waiting for the right moment.
In the Shadow Void Fortress, Lou Huun and Tao Chuanxun were relieved that Di Jiu had not come looking for them. Especially Lou Huen, he was worried that Di Jiu had come looking for him, but it turned out that these few rice buckets in front of him would not be able to keep Di Jiu.
Even though Fan Yuan of the Demon Clan and the Kun Peng Clan had constructed a trap and kill formation outside his Shadow Void Fortress, Lou Huon did not believe for a second that they could keep Di Jiu. Back then in the Dragon Clan, that great formation was powerful, right? That Daoist Monarch Ye who was only at the Dao Yuan realm was still not able to come and go whenever he wanted.
“Fellow Daoist Fan, I’m afraid that Di Jiu won’t come here again.” Kun Bei of the Kun Peng Clan was a little anxious as he waited and said with a frown.
Fan Yuan was also a little puzzled, “The accurate information I got, Di Jiu went to the Void City to look for Xing Hong, and it was indeed for Daoist Fellow Daoist Inu Chuan seeking his whereabouts ah.”
“Is he looking for Daoist Daoist Inu in order to leave this side of the realm and return to the Sea of Emptiness?” Kun Bei grunted, sensing that Fan Yuan’s plan did not seem reliable.
Fan Yuan replied, “Although I don’t know the content of his conversation with Xing Hong, but Di Jiu didn’t have any friendship with Daoist Daoist Inu before, so he must be looking for Daoist Daoist Inu now for the sake of returning to the Sea of Emptiness.”
“Xing Hong is at least the owner of the largest merchant building in the Void City, perhaps that Di Jiu got the way back to the Sea of Emptiness from Xing Hong?” Kun Bei’s tone grew a little more irritated.
If Fan Yuan hadn’t asked them to keep watch here, he had planned to intercept Di Jiu in Void City.
After Kun Broiling finished speaking, he suddenly stood up, “Kun, you and I will go to the Void City together, while Kun Wei you and Fellow Daoist Fan will stay here.”
“We’re splitting up?” Fan Yuan’s heart jumped when he heard Kun Broiling’s words, this was not a good idea. Back then, that Ye Mo had killed five late mixed Yuan powerhouses who had teamed up against him, if they separated now, then their strength would drop straight away.
