“You told me earlier, I have the Dao Fire.” As he spoke, a grey flame had appeared in Di Jiu’s palm.
Bei Ying Shu’s mouth opened wide as he stared blankly at the Dao Fire in Di Jiu’s hand. As a strong person who had crossed into the third step, he didn’t know how many things he had seen over the countless years. However, this was the first time he had seen such a flame in Di Jiu’s hand, although it was the first time he had seen it, he knew very well what the flame in Di Jiu’s hand was, it was really a Dao Flame, and the level was at least that of a Sacred Flame.
“How about it? It’s no problem to burn your Luo Steel with this Dao Fire, right?” Di Jiu took the initiative to shake the flame in his hand after Bei Ying Shu had not spoken for a long time.
Bei Ying Shu slowed down and muttered, “What else do you really have that you don’t have?”
Di Jiu understood Bei Ying Shu’s meaning and had to say, “Old Bei, this is not a matter of exploring how much stuff I have, now it’s whether you want me to help you burn Luo Gang.”
“Of course I want to.” Bei Ying Shu finally understood from the shock that Di Jiu had Dao Fire, that meant that the few pieces of Luo Steel that locked him up were burned off by Di Jiu’s Dao Fire.
The Luo Steel was burnt off, which meant that he, Bei Ying Shu, was free, ah, how many years had he been trapped? Bei Ying Shu was even in a bit of a trance, he himself didn’t even know how many years he had been trapped for.
“After I burn your Luo Steel, you wait on the side for me to shock the Grade 9 Divine Formation Emperor.” Di Jiu said.
Bei Ying Shu shook his head, “If you didn’t have a Dao Fire of the Sacred Flame rank, I wouldn’t even have half a hope of escaping. But even with this Dao Flame of yours, if I wanted to burn away the Luo Steel that locked me up, I wouldn’t be able to do it without a few years.”
“I say, Old North, you’re just a mother-in-law. If you had asked for help as soon as I arrived, why would you have waited until now? There’s no other way, I’ll start burning it now, then I’ll deduce the formation dao, you can just watch from the side.” As Di Jiu spoke, he directly offered up the Dao Fire.
The Dao Fire turned into a coil of ash and wrapped up a part of Luo Gang, and then both Di Jiu and Bei Ying Shu could hear a snorting sound.
Luo Steel melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“That’s awesome.” Di Jiu sighed, this forbidden formation in Luo Steel was just too powerful, if it wasn’t for his Dao fire burning all the time, I’m afraid that even if it took a few years, Luo Steel wouldn’t necessarily be able to burn through.
No wonder Bei Ying Shu said that his Tian Sha Blade could not break it, the recovery speed of Luo Steel was definitely faster than the speed of destruction, since this was the case, how could it be broken unless it was disconnected in one slice?
Di Jiu ignored the Daoist fire burning Luo Steel, he grabbed out a pile of Grade 9 divine materials and took out some Extreme Glazed True Silver and started to refine the Grade 9 divine array formation banner.
Bei Ying Shu could only wait dryly on the side. When he saw Di Jiu take out so many Grade 9 divine materials, he was secretly shocked in his heart, Di Jiu was really too rich. Back then, when he was a First Realm Daoist Monarch, he was not even richer than Di Jiu. Moreover, what kind of material was the Extreme Glazed True Silver that Di Jiu took out, he had actually not seen it before.
Di Jiu himself was an Artifact Saint who could refine extremely fine divine artifacts, so refining a ninth-grade divine formation flag really wasn’t that difficult for him now.
Formation flag after formation flag was refined by Di Jiu and soon piled up around Di Jiu.
Di Jiu spent a full half a year refining all sorts of formation flags until he had almost finished refining the top quality materials around him, and only then did he start to set up the Level 9 Divine Formation with the help of the formation flags.
At the very beginning, Di Jiu was still pushing outside the Silent Van magma. As Di Jiu’s formation dao continued to improve, Di Jiu subconsciously walked into the Silent Van magma.
Bei Yingshu had long since seen this, and it had become a fact that he accepted that Di Jiu was stronger than him. At one time, they, the Five Realm Dao Monarchs, might have dominated this side of the Void Realm, and it was clear that now the universe was no longer theirs to dominate. The backwaters had long since lapped over.
Di Jiu had long been immersed in the Dao of Formation, and even though he had stepped into the Silent Van lava at this moment, a layer of Dao rhythm still flowed around him, which was the Dao rhythm aura of the Dao of Formation that he had sensed.
But at this moment, Di Jiu was also locked in a forbidden formation pattern in the Silent Van lava. In other words, Di Jiu was in the process of sensing the Dao of Formation while he was still in the Silent Van magma. If he didn’t feel the formation dao now, he would have to break the forbidden formation pattern that was locking him in if he wanted to get out. If he couldn’t break it, then he would have to stay here.
Di Jiu didn’t even bother about this forbidden formation pattern that locked him up, he was still throwing out a formation flag every once in a while and continued to deduce his formation dao.
One year, two years ……
When the fifth year had pa*sed, Di Jiu suddenly opened his eyes and raised his hand, a forbidden forbidden system appeared around him.
A cracking sound followed, the formation pattern that locked Di Jiu collapsed instantly, Di Jiu’s body became lighter as soon as he stepped out, not waiting for Di Jiu to step out, another new forbidden formation pattern locked Di Jiu.
This time, Di Jiu didn’t even bother to move his hands, and between his thoughts, another forbidden formation was formed. The forbidden formation pattern that had just locked Di Jiu once again shattered.
In just a few steps, Di Jiu stepped out of the Silent Van lava and arrived at the bottom of the Silent Van lava once again.
“You’ve really succeeded, it’s only been nine years. You’ve crossed over from a rank seven Divine Formation Emperor to a rank nine Divine Formation Emperor.” Seeing Di Jiu enter, Bei Ying Shu couldn’t help but exclaim.
Di Jiu laughed and raised his hand to collect the Dao Fire suspended on the side and said, “Old Bei, congratulations to you as well, the Luo Steel that was locking you up has finally been removed.”
During his third year of pushing the Dao of Formation, Di Jiu knew that the Dao Fire had burned off the Luo Steel, but at that time he was at a critical moment and did not have the time to come out and speak.
Bei Ying Shu gave Di Jiu a fist hug and said with emotion, “I thought this was it for me for the rest of my life, I would die under the Silent Van lava without getting my longevity to reach, I never thought there would be you as a variable, I feel like I am dreaming. Thank you, Little Nine, you saved my life. I have owed few favours in my life, but I never thought I would owe two big ones at the bottom of this Silent Van lava.”
Di Jiu waved his hand, indicating that Bei Ying Shu should not take his saving grace to heart, and then pointed at the iron cage and said, “Old Bei, you can set up this kind of protective formation to block the Void Flame, why can’t you think of a way out after so many years?”
Bei Ying Shu smiled bitterly and said, “I’ve been locked up in the Purple Mansion, so how could I set up this kind of protective formation? This protective formation was set up by another person. I, Bei Ying Shu, can never repay her kindness. She took the initiative to come here in order to set up this protective formation to protect me. After coming here and setting up this protective formation for me, she left ……”
Di Jiu knew that when Bei Yingxu said gone, he should have fallen here, he didn’t ask about it anymore, instead he grabbed a ring and threw it to Bei Yingxu, “Old Bei, there are some things and pills in here, you can use them. When you get out, do you have any plans?”
Bei Ying Shu looked at the Silent Van lava not far away and slowly said, “I’m going to ask him why he’s trapping me?”
“That Xiao asked?” Di Jiu asked in confusion.
Bei Ying Shu nodded, his words were full of despondency.
Di Jiu laughed, “I’m sure you won’t be able to find him.”
“Why?” Bei Ying Shu was blurting out, didn’t Di Jiu say that he didn’t know Xiao Wen? Why did he say he was sure he wouldn’t be able to find Xiao Wen?
Di Jiu said, “I’m not very clear about the exact reason, because I came to this side of the universe very late. But I heard my friend say that back then, after the Gate of Creation appeared, almost all the strongest people of this side of the universe who were Harmony would be involved in it, and it was mandatory to participate in it. I don’t think that Xiao Wen you are talking about would only be a Hedao, right? Even if he is a Hedao, he will still be involved in it.”
“The Creation War?” Bei Ying Shu sucked in a cold breath and asked eagerly, “So all the cultivators who participated in the war died?”
Di Jiu shook his head and said, “I don’t know about that, I’ve only heard it through hearsay. Legend has it that they entered the Gate of Creation, and then …… there was no more then.”
