In a short time, the ink-blackness around Di Jiu’s body receded, and as Di Jiu frantically ran his rule technique, this receding ink-black space became bigger and bigger.
At this moment, the space where Di Jiu was was like a big hole without darkness had been dug out in the middle of the boundless darkness.
This big hole without darkness was very incongruous with the surrounding pitch blackness, and this incongruity continued to grow.
Just as Di Jiu was about to refine the darkness in his own way, the space he had already refined burst open as if a grenade had suddenly been thrown into it. The darkness he had refined filled the space once again, and the darkness became more and more viscous and uncomfortable for Di Jiu’s entire body.
Numerous invisible needles were about to pierce into Di Jiu’s body from this darkness, and Di Jiu suspected that if he did not have a fleshly body beyond that of a saint, this sudden invisible needles would have torn him into pieces.
Di Jiu was secretly frightened, but at the same time he knew that if he were to rely on him alone to refine the darkness rules, he would definitely not be able to refine all the darkness in this area of billions of miles.
When his Dao pupils opened, it was as if there were countless distorted shadows shifting in the darkness. Di Jiu knew that this was one of the Darkness Dao Monarch’s divine powers brewing, and his Dao pupils could already vaguely see the flow of the darkness rules. The Dark Daoist Monarch knew that he had come in and that he was preparing to refine the dark spatial rules here, which was why he was brewing his divine ability, trying to reckon with him at every moment.
Di Jiu did not continue to refine this darkness rule, without taking out the Darkness Daoist Monarch, continuing to refine this darkness rule would be a waste of effort. Crossing into the darkness, the Heaven-opening Pen was brought out into the void and a huge word ‘Boundary’ was written.
A single word broke all the dao, and the boundary came out to delineate yin and yang!
It was as if a giant peak of billions of miles had fallen from beyond the realm, blasting down on top of the boundless black rules. When it fell, it was still a giant peak, but when it blasted into the darkness, it had transformed into a vast realm. This Vast One Realm crushed the black rules down, and a rumbling boom sounded in the void.
Even the rules of darkness, under the crushing of this realm, made a clicking sound, with complete rules constantly breaking off, and the rules in the darkness began to be messy.
“The Heaven Opening Pen!” A cry of alarm came from the darkness, followed by the boundless darkness tumbling up and then rolling towards the huge ‘boundary’ character that Di Jiu had written in the void.
Even Di Jiu could feel an extreme excitement and elation in this darkness, and because of this excitement and elation, the darkness rules of the dark space fluctuated even more violently. Di Jiu was not a fool, he naturally knew clearly what was going on, the Darkness Daoist was excited in his heart at the sight of the Heaven Opening Pen. The Heaven Opening Pen was an indispensable existence to him and the Chamber of Commerce trick, and was just as much of a supreme treasure to the Dark Daoist Monarch.
But no matter how much black tumbled and crushed towards the huge ‘boundary’ character, the one boundary that the ‘boundary’ character turned into was able to completely crush down and then swallow up this endless surge of tumbling darkness.
For a time, blackness tumbled in the void, while the huge ‘boundary’ character always suppressed this tumbling breath.
At first, Di Jiu did not care, in his opinion, even if the word ‘boundary’ was torn apart by the tumbling black rules, his Heaven Opening Pen still had the rest of the words to write. The word ‘boundary’ was originally just a word of truth in his Heaven Opening True Speech divine ability, there was nothing to worry about.
The tumbling black rules seemed to be endless, sweeping over from all directions, the black rules sweeping over bombarded the ‘Boundary’ character incessantly, Di Jiu could only continuously operate his divine essence and divine thoughts to continuously make the ‘Boundary’ character grow. Only in this way could his ‘boundary’ character suppress the tumbling black rules.
After half a day had pa*sed, Di Jiu’s face changed. This tumbling black rule seemed to be endless, and no matter how strong his divine thoughts and divine essence were, they could not continue to fight against it like this, and when his divine thoughts and divine essence could not hold on anymore, his ‘boundary’ character would definitely collapse.
In fact, Di Jiu did not care about the collapse of the word ‘boundary’. The key was that he could not control the initiative at this moment, he could not let his divine thoughts and divine energy leave his control of the ‘boundary’ character and then write a new large character of the opening sky with the Heavenly Opening Brush.
Di Jiu knew very well that he had fallen into the Darkness Daoist Monarch’s path. While he was refining the Darkness Rule’s rule world, the Darkness Rule was backstabbing him.
Now that he had sacrificed the Heaven Opening Pen to write a ‘boundary’ character, he had fallen right in the middle of the Darkness Rule’s secret plan. In fact, if he had not used the Heaven-opening Word and had only used the Heavenly Shaolin Blade, although he would also have fallen into the Darkness Rule’s hidden calculations, he would not have been so pa*sive.
If he were to forcibly interrupt his control over the word ‘boundary’ at this moment, what awaited him would be the collapse of the Heaven Opening True Word divine ability. Di Jiu was very fond of the Heaven-opening True Speech Avatar and had even exchanged the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram for the Heaven-opening Pen, so how could he let the Heaven-opening True Speech Avatar collapse?
At this moment, he was even frantically operating his divine thoughts and divine energy, allowing his ‘Realm’ to grow stronger and stronger, keeping the endlessly tumbling darkness rule suppressed at all times.
Both Di Jiu and the Darkness Daoist Monarch knew very well that at this time, whoever could not support themselves first would collapse first.
……
All cultivators in the Taiji Realm knew that a great power named Di Jiu had come to the Taiji Realm, and that he was not only planning to establish the Starry Sky Blade Sect in the Taiji Realm, but also to give the Taiji Realm its own Dao Court. These were not the things that touched the hearts of all the cultivators in the Taiji Realm the most; what touched all the cultivators in the Taiji Realm the most was that Patriarch Di had entered the Black Mist.
If Di Jiu had entered the black fog like those powerful people before him, looking for the reason why the black fog appeared, then no one would have cared about anything.
However, before Di Jiu entered, he was establishing a defensive protective formation on the periphery of the black fog. Up to now, the endless black fog had not torn through Di Jiu’s defensive protective formation and rushed into the Taiji Realm where it had not been eroded by the black fog.
Because of this, the cultivators of the Taiji Realm were all full of confidence in Di Jiu. Together with the propaganda from the Hall Master of the Piercing Moon Divine Hall, Jijie Fury, and the Valley Master of the Age Cold Valley, Suq Qian Qian, even though many people had never seen Di Jiu, Di Jiu’s prestige had reached its peak.
However, as time pa*sed, everyone became more and more worried about this Patriarch Di.
The defensive shield was not torn apart by the black fog, but the endless black fog blasted at the edge of the defensive shield, tumbling and rolling. From the initial rush out of a few feet to a ten feet later, to the current ten or even tens of feet high.
Even though that black mist still had not broken through Di Jiu’s defensive protective formation, everyone no longer had the confidence they had in Di Jiu at the beginning. With such a terrifying might, it seemed like it was only a matter of time before that black fog broke out of the defensive protective formation.
Some of the cultivators even heard the sound of the defence array clicking, which made many people feel that the defence array set up by Di Jiu should not last much longer.
Some cultivators who had felt that the Taiji Realm was saved began to hesitate again, and even those who had heard the news and returned, left the Taiji Realm once again.
There were likewise some hot-blooded cultivators who wanted to enter the black fog to help Di Jiu or two, but after they went in, the same half-hearted news was not heard, and it was obvious that they had all fallen in the black fog.
……
In the depths of the black fog, Di Jiu’s face was as pale as a sheet of white paper at this moment. He could not hold on to his divine thoughts and divine energy, even if they were thick.
The darkness of the daoist monarch’s dao is so thick and boundless, at least he feels that the other party still has some strength left. If he continued to hold on like this, his spiritual energy would sooner or later be stripped clean, and in the end, there would not even be any blood dregs left.
He absolutely could not go on like this, and for the first time, Di Jiu decided to give up on the Heaven Opening Truth. Even if he knew that once he gave up the word ‘boundary’, he would never be able to possess the word again, or even the Heaven Opening Truth, he still had to give up.
