Chapter 576: The Path of Dao Modeling

Thanks to his Nomological Qi Circulation, Di Jiu seemed to have instantly stripped away the Five-Element Beast Poison. He understood the nomological aura of this poison a moment later. The laws of this Five-Element Beast Poison were a.s.similated by his Nomological Qi Circulation into nutrients that increased his cultivation level.
The remaining Five-Element Beasts were clearly very familiar with this situation, as they pounced over the moment Di Jiu fell. According to the thoughts in their unconscious minds, Di Jiu had no means to retort now. If they didn’t kill him, he would eventually end up like them. However, Di Jiu had killed too many of them, so they had to kill him.
At that moment, Di Jiu leaped up and engulfed another Sky Screen with his Heavenly Aqua Saber.
A grayish-brown b.l.o.o.d.y mist exploded. The few other Five-Element Beasts were all hacked into two by Di Jiu’s saber move.
Di Jiu let out a sigh of relief. Anyone else would have died several times while facing this group of Five-Element Beasts, yet he was still alive.
If one’s divine power law was torn apart in such a place, they would be sentenced to death. That Five-Element Beast Poison was so terrifying that the Stacked Part.i.tion Herbs were nothing compared to it.
However, thanks to this experience of dealing with the Five-Element Beasts, Di Jiu was more confident.
Due to his Nomological Qi Circulation, no matter how much Five-Element Beast Poison there was, he would not be affected at all as long as he captured the nomological aura of the poison.
Di Jiu picked up a brownish-yellow stone from a pile of Five-Element Beast carca.s.ses. He supposed that this should be an earth faculty material in the Vast Ruins.
This was the first time he was reaping something ever since he had entered the Vast Ruins a long time ago.
After Di Jiu had killed hundreds of Five-Element Beasts, he very soon entered the deduction of his Nomological Dao.
All beings in the world const.i.tuted endless laws that were each made up of many laws, regardless of the Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth in the Five Elements or the Wind, Thunder, and Ice in the world…
His Nomological Dao sensed the Heaven Earth Law and condensed his Dao force…
His insightful divine power was rapid and his understanding was stronger than other cultivators because he was cultivating the Nomological Dao. In his eyes, even divine power was just a part of the law that made up the Heaven Earth Law.
Di Jiu suddenly stopped in his tracks. Since he cultivated the Nomological Dao, regardless of his battling skills, cultivation of divine power, or Array Dao set up, he had used all kinds of laws.
All laws were made up of orders. If he wanted to undergo Dao Modeling, he had to understand all the orders in the world and casually condense them into a kind of new Heaven Earth Law…
However, this was definitely impossible.
There were hundreds of millions of orders in the world. No, that was not right. The orders in the world were endless, and no cultivator could understand them all. If he had to wait until he understood all the orders before he could undergo a Dao Modeling, how long would he have to wait?
Di Jiu’s heart trembled and cold sweat seeped out of his forehead.
The strongest technique that he relied on had now become his Dao Modeling obstruction. If he was not cultivating the Nomological Dao, he might have undergone a Dao Modeling long ago. Would he still have needed to wait until today?
What should he do now? Cultivate another Dao? Di Jiu pushed aside these thoughts. He was so formidable because he had cultivated the Nomological Dao, the Ninth World in his Spiritual Sea, and the treasures like the Book of the World.
If he cultivated other Daos, how different would he be from an ordinary cultivator? Di Jiu was not a talented person. If he abandoned his Nomological Dao, he would only be a n.o.body compared to other cultivators.
Di Jiu once again let out a sigh of relief. Perhaps, he had underestimated himself too much. He would not be that poor even if he cultivated other Daos. However, he would definitely not abandon his Nomological Dao.
Not only was the Nomological Dao his opportunity, but it was also connected to his Ninth World.
Why could he not undergo a Dao Modeling even though he had cultivated the Nomological Dao? Could he only be an Immortal Emperor in this world for eternity?
This wouldn’t do. He had to undergo a Dao Modeling.
An inner voice in Di Jiu was screaming that if he did not undergo Dao Modeling, he would become someone else’s ashes on a chopping board sooner or later.
How could he model his Dao and perfect the orders that he had understood, or even those that he had yet to understand?
He had understood countless Foundation Orders in the Five Continent Dao PaG.o.da. Apart from that, he had also come across many kinds of toxicity laws, s.p.a.ce, time, Five-Element Laws…
However, these orders were probably nothing in the vast world, so how could he perfect them?
Di Jiu stopped thinking and sighed. He knew that perfecting his orders was definitely not viable. Even the Master of the Universe that had been divulged by the Ninth Dao Law back then probably could not completely understand every order controlled by the universe.
Could he perhaps be unable to model his Dao in this lifetime?
Natural laws were endless, so there would be a trace of life-force…
At the thought of a trace of life-force, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Sea suddenly sensed a misty beam of light. Something indistinct flickered in his thoughts as though he had nearly captured it.
Di Jiu frowned but did not even mind the Five-Element Beast that pounced over.
“Pfft!” The Five-Element Beast’s claws directly ripped apart Di Jiu’s back and left behind a trail of blood.
The Five-Element Beast, which was also stunned, seemed to not understand why it had sneaked an attack on Di Jiu but had not managed to disembowel him. It could only sense his firm physical body, which surpa.s.sed the bodies of the cultivators it had met by far.
Di Jiu still did not turn his head. His Heavenly Aqua Saber turned into a blade flare and slashed toward the Five-Element Beast.
Di Jiu sighed and stopped thinking of his Dao Modeling. If he had not been cultivating the Nomological Dao, how could this saber move of his have easily torn apart a Five-Element Beast?
Could he possibly use his physical body to fight with the Five-Element Beast and not his Saber Dao divine power?
When Di Jiu thought of not using his Saber Dao divine power, the misty beam of light in his Spiritual Sea suddenly grew clearer. He stared blankly at the Five-Element Beast that he had killed in front of his eyes and mumbled, “Since I can’t perfect all the laws in the world to model my Dao, why don’t I cleanly abandon the divine power of the laws that I have cultivated and use another method to model my Dao?”
Boom! Everything suddenly became clear.
He could first cut off his divine power Dao and then model his Dao. After he had a successful Dao Modeling, couldn’t he learn that divine power Dao again?
He would cut off his Dao and model it!
Di Jiu trembled a bit from excitement, as he had finally found the way to model his Nomological Dao. Even though he was still short of condensing his Dao Seed, he ignored that.
At the moment, his priority was to cut off his Dao.
Di Jiu was also unaware that he had unexpectedly found the strongest Dao Modeling technique. No ordinary cultivators would cut off their Dao and model their Dao force in the vast universe.
Di Jiu did not have a master, which was because the Dao that he cultivated was entirely different from the ordinary Dao. Thus, he had n.o.body to discuss this with. It was thanks to Lady Luck that he had found that Dao Modeling technique.
He had come to the Vast Ruins with only the goal of going through a Dao Modeling. After Di Jiu found the Dao Modeling technique, he set up nomological array flags where he was standing without hesitation. At the same time, he grabbed onto the array flags and set up a Defense Array.
Searching for a safe place to model his Dao was not an option for Di Jiu. He did not want to delay any further at this point, as he only wanted to model his Dao.
Di Jiu’s Array Dao had long surpa.s.sed an Immortal Array Master’s, and he had set up five to six Defense Arrays in his surroundings. Unless more than 10,000 Five-Element Beasts came, no one could threaten him.
After the arrays had been set up, Di Jiu took out nearly millions of high-grade divine crystals. He would not allow anything to happen to him during his Dao Modeling.
When everything had been prepared properly, Di Jiu sat in his Defense Array and started sorting out his divine power and techniques.
A month pa.s.sed when Di Jiu stood up all of a sudden. At the same time, he lifted his hands and shouted, “Cut off my Colossal Kun Art!”
Pfft! Di Jiu spat out a trail of blood arrows. He had cut off his Colossal Kun Art first, which was not considered a nomological divine power. However, after cultivating, it forcibly became his body-tempering cultivation technique that contained all kinds of body-tempering cultivation techniques.
Di Jiu felt weak, even though he had only cut off his first divine power cultivation technique.
