Chapter 784: News About the Chaos Realm
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Apologizes, fellow Daoist. Your beast companion seems to have misunderstood something about us, which is why it purposely crashed your flying vessel into our flying boat. We actually meant no ill will. We simply wanted to give you some news. We did not expect your beast companion to directly slam our two flying vessels together.” The late-stage Primordial Dao cultivator on the void flying boat explained courteously as he cupped his fists before Di Jiu.
In his opinion, Di Jiu was most likely at the Dao Transformation Realm or at most at the early-stage Primordial Dao Realm. However, he dared not show Di Jiu any disrespect.
After all, even though Di Jiu was so young, he already owned an impressive beast companion and even controlled a supreme-grade flying divine weapon. In addition, the cultivation technique Di Jiu used to conceal his true cultivation level was so powerful that even he could not see Di Jiu’s true strength. This showed that Di Jiu must have very powerful origins and hold a high position there.
No one, other than some arrogant fools, would want to provoke the wrath of someone like Di Jiu, who had a powerful background. Supreme-grade flying divine weapons were indeed valuable, but their value was incomparable to the value of life. Offending such a top-notch powerhouse would destroy him and his supporters.
Di Jiu could see that this Primordial Dao cultivator had no killing intent, so he should not be coveting his flying Dharma treasure. This collision must have been instigated by Lightning.
Since he sensed no ill intent, Di Jiu was not bothered by the incident. He cupped his fists and inquired, “May I know what news this is regarding?”
Seeing that Di Jiu seemed to be quite amicable, the Primordial Dao cultivator quickly said, “My name is Xian Cang, and I am from the Xian Family of the Xian Ocean. I have intercepted your path because of the Xian Ocean’s Supreme Glazed True Silver…”
Di Jiu frowned and inquired, “Supreme Glazed True Silver?”
He was a Weapon Saint who could refine supreme-grade divine weapons, yet he had never heard of the Supreme Glazed True Silver before. Was this a kind of material or something else? Its name suggested that it was a type of material.
“If you don’t know about the Supreme Glazed True Silver, then I suppose that you have never heard of the Chaos Realm,” Xian Cang stated.
Di Jiu said, “I have never heard of the Supreme Glazed True Silver, but I do know about the Chaos Realm.”
Xian Cang hastily said, “I suppose you have never been to the Chaos Realm? At least in the past 50,000 years?”
Di Jiu nodded. “That’s right. I have never been to the Chaos Realm.”
He had originally wanted to ask Ling Xiaoshuang to bring him to the Chaos Realm, as he had heard that there were a lot of quality items there. Many experts completed Dao Validation there as well. It would be too late if he headed there now, although it was better late than never.
Unsurprised, Xian Cang replied, “That was the right move on your part. There are indeed many quality items in the Chaos Realm and uncountable cultivators have searched there numerous times. Even so, some cultivators were still able to obtain opportunities. However, ever since 50,000 years ago, no one has been able to enter the Chaos Realm anymore. The only exception is if one uses the Supreme Glazed True Silver…”
Di Jiu had planned to entertain the man and chat with him a bit before leaving, but his words piqued his interest. “Please tell me more, Daoist Xian.”
Xian Cang explained, “50,000 years ago, a gray mist suddenly appeared out of nowhere on the borders of the Chaos Realm. This fog looked very ordinary, but its presence caused every cultivator that entered to go missing. Over time, no one dared to enter anymore.
“Meanwhile, a material known as the Supreme Glazed True Silver appeared in the Xian Ocean. The Supreme Glazed True Silver comes in various colors. The worst quality is a level-three divine material, while the best that has been found so far is level-seven Supreme Glazed True Silver. When wearing armor made from this material, one can pa.s.s through the gray fog and enter the Chaos Realm. Of course, there is a time limit. One cannot stay inside too long, or one will not be able to leave.”
“One can refine armor using the Supreme Glazed True Silver before entering the Chaos Realm?” Di Jiu frowned and silently contemplated this. He had heard of the Chaos Realm before, but his knowledge was very limited. He only knew whatever information Ling Xiaoshuang had given him about the Chaos Realm.
Di Jiu had originally planned to head to the Heavenly Union Planet first before heading to the Great Beginning Realm to confront Nuo La. Then, he would head to the Chaos Realm. However, he had suddenly been informed that the Chaos Realm was currently inaccessible.
“That is right. The higher the level of the Supreme Glazed True Silver, the longer the time the refined armor can last. In fact, I am currently making a special trip to deliver some Supreme Glazed True Silver and give out some invitations,” answered Xian Cang.
Di Jiu asked in confusion, “Why are you telling me all this, Daoist Xian?”
As the saying goes, people who are unaccountably solicitous are hiding evil intentions. Di Jiu believed this to be true, as he had personally witnessed and experienced similar situations.
Xian Cang smiled and replied, “Because a new mystic area has appeared in the Xian Ocean. Predictions state that there might be large amounts of high-level Supreme Glazed True Silver inside. In one year, our Young Mistress’s wedding will take place, which coincides with the day the mystic area will open. I saw that you were using a supreme-grade flying Dharma treasure so I a.s.sumed that your background is not simple. Therefore, I wanted to personally invite you. If you are free, you can visit the mystic area in a year.”
Then, Xian Cang politely took out a golden invitation.
Di Jiu would not have cared about the Xian Ocean if it did not involve being able to enter the Chaos Realm.
He accepted the invitation without hesitation as he responded, “Thank you. I will definitely make a trip down to the Xian Ocean in one year. However, which direction am I supposed to make my way toward in the Xian Ocean?’
He had decided to go to the Xian Ocean, regardless of whether Xian Cang’s invitation hid good or ill intentions.
“You can check the Xian Ocean’s location on the invitation,” explained Xian Cang warmly when he saw that Di Jiu had accepted the invitation.
He believed that Di Jiu had an extraordinary background. The more people like him went to the Xian Ocean, the more benefits it would bring the Xian Family, which would make more powerful friends.
Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force scanned the invitation, and there was indeed a vague void map on it. The map was engraved using array patterns, a clear sign that this was the work of someone quite remarkable.
“Thank you, Daoist Xian. I have some matters to deal with, but I will definitely head down to the Xian Ocean if time permits it,” Di Jiu said as he put the golden invitation away and cupped his fists.
“The Xian Family will welcome you with open arms.” Xian Cang then added, “May I know how to address you?”
“My name is Di Jiu.” After telling Xian Cang his name, he bade Xian Cang farewell.
This place was not that far from the Heavenly Union Planet. By controlling the flying shuttle himself, he arrived outside the Heavenly Union Planet in just two weeks.
Di Jiu was astounded to find no Defense Array or guards guarding the Heavenly Union Planet. The place that contained the Heavenly Union Dao PaG.o.da should not be so rundown.
Di Jiu had come for the Quintessential Essence of the Universe but also to find Nie Qianzhang and save Cai Ji. He did not care how shabby the Heavenly Union Planet was. Unfortunately, Yi Shu, who was more familiar with this place, had not come with him.
Upon entering the Heavenly Union Planet, Di Jiu felt that the entire planet seemed to be concentrated in one city. He was standing on the Heavenly Union Planet’s square, which was extremely s.p.a.cious, and could see many lanes extending out of it.
It surprised Di Jiu that the Heavenly Union Planet’s square had a high flow of human traffic.
The most eye-catching structure was a tall paG.o.da that reached the clouds. Many cultivators were entering this paG.o.da. There was no other structure around it, but a white stone pillar had been erected in front of it. This stone pillar seemed to be swaying a little, most likely in response to the situation inside the paG.o.da.
Di Jiu’s gaze landed on the paG.o.da, as he guessed that this had to be the Heavenly Union Dao PaG.o.da.
There was no question that he would enter the Heavenly Union Dao PaG.o.da, but his priority now was to seek out the location of the Nie Family.
Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force swept out brazenly, breaking open numerous cave abode restrictions.
Despite how arrogant Di Jiu’s action was, no one dared to speak out against it.
It was obvious that Di Jiu was a ruthless man seeking trouble. Who else would use their Spiritual Force to break open someone else’s cave abode restrictions?
Less than half an hour pa.s.sed before Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force landed in the City Lord Manor. It looked ordinary on the outside, but the Divine Spirit Qi encircling the place exposed it as the best cultivating location in the entire Heavenly Union Planet.
Within the most luxurious cave abode in the City Lord Manor was a late-stage Primordial Chaos middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to Nie Changping.
Di Jiu knew without asking that this had to be Nie Qianzhang.
