Ninth In the World

Chapter 460: The Brilliant Lake Is Destroyed

Di Jiu, who also understood that the Brilliant Lake was the array core of the Confinement Killing Array, was ecstatic. He had not spent a great deal of effort. Who would have known that such a big Brilliant Lake would have just a natural array flag?

The instant the Confinement Killing Array core was destroyed, Di Jiu snatched away the real Green Lotus Flag from Ye Xi with one hand. His Nomological Array flags were all around them and as long as the Confinement Killing Array was no use to him, he would be the king of this space.

The Confinement Killing Array completely fell apart when the Green Lotus Flag was snatched away.

Zhong Ao immediately felt the Confinement Killing Array that had trapped them rapidly weakening, so he threw himself at Ye Xi without the slightest hesitation. His domain aura enveloped Ye Xi completely.

The Confinement Killing Array had originally consumed a lot so that Ye Xi could activate it. Plus, his strength was far weaker than Zhong Ao’s. Now that Zhong Ao made a move with all his strength, Ye Xi, who did not have the ability to resist, was held by his neck.

When Ye Xi lifted his hand, numerous saber flares blasted. The three Immortal Emperors at his side were killed off.

Immortal Emperor Melting Snow, who somewhat regretted this deep down, could sense the Confinement Killing Array weakening and grabbed a few elixir pills and sent them into Ai Qingbing’s mouth without delay. She then threw herself towards a sixth-stage Immortal Emperor by Ye Xi’s side.

Zhou Bujian and Yin Wushang did not need to be reminded that their target was only Jie Di.

Zhong Ao, who was very cruel, got rid of everyone by himself, including the four Immortal Emperors.

Both Zhou Bujian’s and Yin Wushang’s strength was far higher than Jie Di’s strength. Thus, when they joined forces, Jie Di did not even have the strength to retaliate and was instantly killed by Yin Wushang.

The cultivation level of the Elixir Association’s Guild Master, Chen Zishun, was lower. Therefore, he did not fish up any opponents.

Di Jiu glanced at Ai Qingbing. Her cultivation level was the lowest, but fortunately, she was taken care of by Immortal Emperor Melting Snow and suffered lighter injuries than him.

Unfortunately, Fang Qi and He Weiwei, who were trapped by his Confinement Killing Array, did not even have room to struggle and were killed by Ye Xi’s large array.

Di Jiu had originally planned to capture that slut He Weiwei and let her see Qian Fenghua. However, he could only tell him that he had helped him take revenge.

This was also good. Otherwise, given Qian Fenghua’s nature, he might not bear to kill her.

When Di Jiu grabbed a few rings with his hands and landed on the Brilliant Lake Peak, the others followed him.

Besides Ye Xi, who was confined by Zhong Ao without being killed, the remaining people were all killed.

Yin Wushang had some really deep thoughts. When he had been trapped by Ye Xi’s Confinement Killing Array, he had felt a bit desperate. He had been aware that his biggest worry had become a reality. However, in the blink of an eye, Di Jiu had turned the tables and broken through the top-notch large array Ye Xi had activated. This was like a dream.

If he hadn’t resolutely come to the Brilliant Lake Palace with Di Jiu, how would he have taken revenge to his heart’s content? Once he took revenge, Yin Wushang’s state of mind would ascend a level.

Over 20 cultivators who were on the Brilliant Lake Peak did not leave. They could see the battle clearly now. It was short, yet there were numerous weak displacements in the middle.

Ye Xi had clearly lost miserably.

Numerous Immortal Emperors hurried over to greet Di Jiu. The top-notch Confinement Killing Array that Ye Xi had activated was clearly not fake. However, Di Jiu and the others had managed to break through this large array within a short time and even kill the five Immortal Emperor experts by his side before capturing Ye Xi alive.

“I’ll hand him over to you.” Zhong Ao threw Ye Xi out of his hands as if he was throwing rubbish.

Di Jiu did not catch him, so Ye Xi landed on the floor. Ye Xi’s meridians had all been sealed by Zhong Ao, making him unable to budge at all.

He now landed under Di Jiu’s foot. As a former top expert of the Four Major Immortal Continents, Ye Xi was indignant.

However, his strong will to live made him say, “Alchemy Emperor Di, the battle between us was just over the whereabouts of the Elixir Association’s Guild Master...”

Di Jiu interrupted him. “Ye Xi, it’s not your turn to talk yet.”

Di Jiu once again threw out numerous array flags.

The Brilliant Lake Peak under them once again quaked and disappeared along with its Defense Array. Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force permeated it without restraint.

A moment later, Di Jiu saw a huge underground alchemy hall below the Brilliant Lake Palace, where over 10 people were refining pills.

“It’s Guild Master Qu... and Immortal Alchemy Supremacy Ping Jiang...” Chen Zishun’s voice trembled and his eyes turned red.

Di Jiu destroyed all the restriction arrays there, so everyone could use their Spiritual Force to see the Alchemy Hall under the Brilliant Lake Palace clearly.

“No wonder Daoist He disappeared. He was actually captured by Ye Xi to refine pills here...”

“Wandan Sect’s Elder Hu Heng is also here...”

Ye Xi’s face grew increasingly pale. He knew he was done for.

The Alchemy Masters in the Alchemy Hall were refining all kinds of immortal pills mechanically, as if they had no soul or opinion.

A seventh-stage Immortal Emperor expert sighed. “It’s no wonder that the immortal pills the Immortal Brilliant Elixir Dispensary sold seemed to lack a soul. It turns out that they were produced like this after all.”

Di Jiu grabbed the over 10 Alchemy Masters and pulled them out with his Immortal Essence handprint. At the same time, he sent over 10 elixir pills into their mouths.

Everyone trembled at the sight. An Immortal Essence handprint had to at least attain the level-nine Immortal Force. Di Jiu was an Immortal King. How could he have attained that?

These Alchemy Masters were in a state of numbness. They had only refined pills mechanically.

Qu Hen’s cultivation was formidable, so he was the first one to regain his consciousness. He lifted his head and looked blankly all over the place before he immediately saw Deputy Guild Master Chen Zishun. His eyes were red as he asked in confusion, “Zishun, don’t tell me you were also captured by Ye Xi?”

Chen Zishun said excitedly, “I wasn’t. Guild Master, Alchemy Emperor Di of our Elixir Association saved you. Take a look...”

Qu Hen turned his head to see Ye Xi, who had been thrown on the floor by Zhong Ao. However, he did not seem to pay any attention to Ye Xi. He looked at Chen Zishun excitedly. “Alchemy Emperor Di of our Elixir Association? We have such an Alchemy Emperor? How is that possible? Who’s Alchemy Emperor Di?”

At that moment, the other Alchemy Masters became conscious. In a short time, they understood what had happened.

They had been captured by Ye Xi to refine pills, but Immortal Alchemy Emperor Di Jiu of the Elixir Association had saved them.

After asking who Di Jiu was, the other Alchemy Masters came forward to express their gratitude to Di Jiu.

Di Jiu said with cupped fists, “Fellow Daoists, Ye Xi was selfish and did something that infuriated the Heaven and the people. I hope everyone is taught a lesson by this. Dao cultivation is also the Dao heart. Doing such an outrageous thing will only beget retribution. There is no need for the Brilliant Lake Palace to exist anymore. I will now destroy it, so everyone should leave.”

Regardless of whether Di Jiu was an Immortal King or not, even the most top-notch Immortal Emperor would not dare cause any trouble to Di Jiu after this incident.

Despite the unfathomable Old Zhong by Di Jiu’s side, Di Jiu was apparently the one who had broken through Ye Xi’s top-notch Confinement Killing Array earlier.

He had set up all kinds of large arrays without letting anyone know. Such a technique was head-numbing to even think of.

Even though many people had guessed that there was a top-notch treasure below the Brilliant Lake, there would not be such rich Immortal Spirit Qi after Ye Xi’s large arrays were activated.

So what if they had guessed? Who would dare to snatch quality items while Di Jiu was there?

A group of Immortal Emperors greeted Di Jiu with cupped fists one after another and retreated from the Brilliant Lake Palace.

“Brother Di, thank you for saving my life. Without you, I would have already been buried under the Brilliant Lake Palace. By the way, are you really an Immortal Alchemy Emperor?” Qu Hen eased away from his excitement. When he came over to greet Di Jiu, the first thing he asked was whether Di Jiu was an Immortal Alchemy Emperor.

Di Jiu smiled faintly and said with cupped fists, “Guild Master Qu, I’m also a member of the Elixir Association. You can just call me by my name. As for whether I’m really an Alchemy Emperor, let’s talk about it when we return to the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City. I want to destroy the Brilliant Lake Palace right now. This is not a good place after all.”

“Alright, alright, alright...” Qu Hen repeated his words and then followed Zhong Ao, Chen Zishun, and the others away from the Brilliant Lake Peak.

Di Jiu wanted to get rich here, and everyone knew that. They also knew very well that only Di Jiu could take the things that were there.

Di Jiu scanned the place with his Spiritual Force. When he blasted the Brilliant Lake, nearly all the people in the Brilliant Lake Palace had fled. Although there were still a few people hiding in a corner of the Brilliant Lake Palace, he did not bother telling them to escape before he threw dozens of array flags down.

A frantic explosion and a roar were heard. The Brilliant Lake Peak below was directly blasted apart into scraps.

A small part of the Brilliant Lake also collapsed completely.

When a green immortal meridian revealed itself, Di Jiu’s eyes turned bloodshot because of that rich Heaven Earth Essence Energy.

When Ye Xi had activated the Confinement Killing Immortal Array previously, he had sensed a hint of a very rich Heaven Earth Essence Energy that was emitted by this green immortal meridian.

That was not right. This was not supposed to be an immortal meridian. It was most likely a treasure that had surpassed an immortal meridian. He had the supreme-grade immortal meridian on him despite not having Heaven Earth Essence Energy. The aura of the dozens of blue shards he had obtained in the Lunar Immortal Sea was similar to this green immortal meridian.

This was good stuff. Di Jiu sent a dozen feet of green Essence Energy into his Quintessential World and threw a ball of flame at Ye Xi at the same time. No matter how strong Ye Xi was, his meridians were still sealed. Against the level-nine immortal flame called Luminous Starry Sky, he could not resist.
