Di Jiu shook his head. If the Golden Immortal, Zheng Sanxing, only had such an ability, then the Golden Immortal had to be really weak. 90 percent of Di Jiu’s Quintessential Essence had transformed into Immortal Essence. A few days later, all of his Quintessential Essence would transform into Immortal Essence. By that time, it would be simple for him to finish Zheng Sanxing off. For now, as long as Di Jiu used some tricks, he could kill Zheng Sanxing within half an hour.
It seemed like Qu Tong’s guess was correct. Zheng Sanxing was most likely a fake Golden Immortal.
Zheng Sanxing set his eyes on Mo Yuxuan, who was behind Di Jiu, after uttering a sentence.
His eyes blazed like torches the moment he saw Mo Yuxuan. He had entered the Golden Immortal Realm because of a disciple from the Virtuous Nirvana Sect. Hence, he was particularly sensitive about them. He could tell that Mo Yuxuan was a disciple from the Virtuous Nirvana Sect with just one look.
Not only was this woman a disciple of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect, but she was also extremely beautiful.
However, Zheng Sanxing looked away for a split second. As someone who had built an Immortal City and become a City Lord, not only was he very lucky, but he also had self-control that other people hardly had.
When he saw the mockery and killing intent in Di Jiu’s eyes, he was shocked. He immediately realized that Di Jiu was not a typical cultivator who had come to the Immortal City to seek asylum, as an ordinary cultivator would not kill deacon Lv in such a short time.
Although the time it had taken deacon Lv to send him the message and leave the city was minimal, deacon Lv had been killed in that short period of time. In addition, Di Jiu had obviously belittled him because the former was audacious enough to bring the disciple of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect here.
Zheng Sanxing threw an array flag out and issued a warning.
Di Jiu disregarded Zheng Sanxing’s warning as his eyes followed the array flag thrown. He could tell that the flag was the Seven-Star Aqua Flag immediately.
A series of loud blasts were heard in the area the moment the Seven-Star Aqua Flag was thrown. Crazy killing intent exploded as Di Jiu’s surroundings were filled with a murderous aura instantly. His Spiritual Force was also completely blocked.
Di Jiu’s eyes blazed like torches. He had not expected to see the Seven-Star Aqua Flag so easily.
Di Jiu had seen a level-one Immortal killing array outside the Three-Element Immortal City the moment he had entered the city. Such low-level arrays meant nothing to him. However, he had not expected that Zheng Sanxing would control the Immortal killing array by using the Seven-Star Aqua Flag.
Di Jiu saw eight cultivators who had perfected the Domain Realm dashing into the array and positioning themselves at different corners. Zheng Sanxing was a cautious man, so he had found eight people to assist him in controlling the array just in case he could not handle the situation.
Zheng Sanxing used the Dharma treasure to attack Mo Yuxuan after activating the array.
Di Jiu was a little shocked, because that fellow attacked Mo Yuxuan after trapping him in the array. What was going on?
Di Jiu, who totally disregarded such level-one arrays, had brought Mo Yuxuan and Liu Yuxin with him before they had disappeared together. A few more array flags were thrown at them, but Di Jiu took the Seven-Star Aqua Flag Zheng Sanxing used to control the array after rolling it up.
The strength of Zheng Sanxing’s Spiritual Force, Immortal Essence and Array formation were all far weaker than Di Jiu’s.
Not only did Di Jiu take the flag quickly, but he also took direct control of the Immortal killing array.
According to a saying of the Cultivation World, one should not provoke an array master. However, if an array master were to encounter another, more powerful array master, fighting him by using arrays would be a big taboo. That was because his Dharma Array could be controlled, so he would end up being hoisted by his own petard.
Zheng Sanxing was shocked when he missed. Before he could strike again, the space around him changed. The omnipresent killing intent created by him was no longer under control. Instead, it changed direction and swarmed towards him.
Oh no! His opponent was a more powerful array master. The Immortal killing array was taken over by Di Jiu within an extremely short time.
Zheng Sanxing felt very anxious, as a bloody stench overwhelmed him just as he was about to escape. He knew that the eight experts that had come to help him had been killed without hesitation.
“My fellow Daoist, it was hard to survive in the Sunset Immortal World. I admit that my arrays are inferior compared to yours. I am willing to offer my Immortal City. We could rule it together. However, I do not know where the New Immortal City is located, my friend...”
Zheng Sanxing did not continue, as a Fist Mountain dashed towards him.
Although the level-one killing array injured him badly, at least he knew where the killing intent came from. He had set it up after all.
However, he could not dodge the Fist Mountain. Zheng Sanxing was forced to use the Dharma treasure against the Fist Mountain.
Boom! Immortal Essence exploded and killing intent overwhelmed their surroundings.
Zheng Sanxing felt a sense of relief, because he had finally blocked off Di Jiu’s attack.
Before he could react, a second Fist Mountain struck. The second Fist Mountain was a continuation of the first one. Zheng Sanxing made a defensive mistake by not realizing that at first.
Zheng Sanxing punched frantically as well.
Bam! His fist collided with the Fist Mountain and layers of bloody mist spread out.
Zheng Sanxing’s arm disappeared completely, as it was blown away by that violent Essence Energy.
This was an Immortal Lord expert...
Zheng Sanxing was horrified. After all, he was a Golden Immortal. If he could not resist a punch from his opponent, then his opponent had to be an Immortal Lord expert.
Zheng Sanxing’s only thought was to escape immediately to a place as far away as possible. However, his heart sank the moment he saw the third Fist Mountain.
What kind of supernormal ability was this? Each of the three Fist Mountains was more powerful than the previous one. Zheng Sanxing gave up resisting completely as he saw that crazily majestic aura. He felt insignificant in front of that force.
The peak was like layers of Furious Waves. Anyone would be defeated, no matter how powerful they were.
Zheng Sanxing did not understand when he had offended such an expert even as he died. Maybe...
His thoughts ended there as he disappeared without a trace.
The killing intent in the air disappeared. Although there were eight corpses on the floor, Zheng Sanxing disappeared into thin air.
More than ten Domain Realm cultivators who had wanted to help Zheng Sanxing stood still with a dull look in their eyes. Even a moron would know that Zheng Sanxing had been killed.
How long had it even taken? Zheng Sanxing had been killed in his own array in a really short time. How powerful was the cultivator who had arrived?
“Senior, we want to welcome you as a City Lord.” A male cultivator came back to reality and walked over to speak to Di Jiu in a humble way.
The rest, who also realized the situation they were in, went over to greet Di Jiu.
They had seen the Golden Immortal, Zheng Sanxing, kill a Perfected Immortal expert easily with a slap with their own eyes. However, an expert like Zheng Sanxing had still been killed in just a short while by this foreign cultivator. It was obvious that the foreign cultivator would be the new City Lord of the Sanxian Immortal City.
Liu Yuxing, who understood the situation, looked at Di Jiu with excitement. She thought she was going to die, but she had never expected that her savior would be so powerful.
This was definitely an expert from the New Immortal City. Definitely.
Di Jiu set his eyes on the crowd and said loudly, “Attention, all cultivators in the Immortal City. I am Di Jiu, a cultivator who was passing by for itinerant cultivation. I killed the City Lord of the Three-Element Immortal City, Zheng Sanxing, but I do not intend to be the new City Lord...”
Some cultivators with higher cultivation experience were overjoyed when they heard Di Jiu’s words.
They stood a chance to be the City Lord of the Three-Element Immortal City, as Di Jiu did not want the title.
Di Jiu then added, “People are being killed in every part of the Immortal World, and looting is taking place everywhere. There is not a single person in more than 100 million Li. It’s as if this is the end of the world. Nope, this is indeed the end of the Immortal World. I am just an ordinary cultivator that hopes to find a peaceful place and build an Immortal City. In that city, everyone will be equal and no one will get bullied. Everybody will be able to cultivate and live peacefully.”
“I have found that place and I am planning to go there. If anyone is willing to go with me, please leave the Three-Element Immortal City and come before me.”
“Senior, Junior, I am willing to go with you.” Liu Yuxin was the first to stand before Di Jiu.
Di Jiu nodded. “Stand aside first. There will be some tests later.”
“Yes.” Liu Yuxin stood aside. No matter who became the City Lord of the Three-Element Immortal City, they would not be much better than Zheng Sanxing. She yearned for the cultivation life Di Jiu had described. Even if Di Jiu had lied, she still had to try her luck just in case his promise was real.
Light rays flashed past as nearly 500 people gathered in front of Di Jiu very quickly.
Di Jiu felt a little disappointed. Although the population of the city was close to 50,000 people, only 500 of them were willing to follow him. The percentage was too low.
He understood why this was so. The Three-Element Immortal City was readily available. In addition, anyone who had been able to enter the Three-Element Immortal City had contributed Spirit Stones and Immortal crystals. Why would they want to build another Immortal City with a stranger when they already had one? The new city would require effort to be built. How would they return to this place if the plan failed?
In addition, this foreign cultivator was really powerful. Who knew, maybe he was there to lure cultivators with the intention of refining their Blood Essence.
Di Jiu’s eyes scanned the people in front of him before he said calmly, “There will be a full set of laws and regulations in the new city. Anyone who violates the rules will be punished...”
More than 100 people chickened out before Di Jiu could finish his words.
Di Jiu continued as if he could not see the number of people decrease. “Everyone in the new city will have an identity. Any cultivator without an identity will not be allowed to enter the city, regardless of the number of immortal crystals and spirit stones they have. In addition, all the cultivators who leave with me will need to pass an examination array. That way, I will see if each cultivator has killed others to get their treasure or used other cultivators’ Blood Essence for refinement.”
More than ten people left after Di Jiu completed each sentence. Only slightly more than 100 people stood before him by the time he stopped talking.
