"Sir, I only know Brother Jiu's general location." Before Geng Ji could escape, Xian Ze grabbed him. He now realized that Xian Ze was much more powerful than he had first thought.

Xian Ze, who calmed down from his initial excitatory state, let go of Geng Ji and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Di Jiu's whereabouts concerned Xian Ze's qualification to head to the Immortal World. No matter what his motivations were, he desperately wanted to meet Di Jiu. If he missed this opportunity to do so, he might never be able to see a genius like Di Jiu again.

"I agree. Senior Geng, we and your sister-in-law have all been anxiously searching for Big Brother Di," He Tai said hastily.

Geng Ji and He Tai might be of similar age, yet when Geng Ji and Di Jiu had been traveling with worse strength than the one he currently possessed, they had dared pick a fight with the Qi Family's Commercial Building. This was a feat achievable by very few people.

"Sister-in-law?" Geng Ji looked doubtfully at He Tai.

Before Jing Moshuang could give an explanation, He Tai said, "Senior Sister Moshuang is Big Brother Di's wife. Did you not know this?"

He was feeling dubious. Jing Moshuang and Di Jiu should have gotten married before Di Jiu had met Geng Jihua. How could Geng Jihua possibly not be aware of this fact?

Xian Ze felt irritated that He Tai was speaking such nonsense. Was this really important? It was simply a waste of time. However, this limited time did not matter, so he held back his desire to interrupt He Tai.

Jing Moshuang wanted to become Di Jiu's widow and forever remember what she owed to him. She believed that Di Jiu had met his doom after all. However, she had not expected to find out later that Di Jiu was actually still alive. This made her uncertain as to how to explain this to everyone. She could not possibly tell them to ignore her previous claim now that Di Jiu was still alive.

"Yes, yes. I know that Senior Sister Moshuang and Brother Jiu are married." Geng Ji hurriedly nodded his head.

However, Brother Jiu had told him before that the marriage between him and Jing Moshuang was fake. Plus, Senior Sister Moshuang surely did not treat the marriage seriously. Otherwise…

Something was not right. If Senior Sister Moshuang did not treat the marriage seriously, why would she bring Brother Jiu along to the Lonely River City? Ever since he had been young, his mother had told him not to guess what his future wife was thinking while he was searching for one. His mother had also said that women's thoughts were more complex. Brother Jiu must have not understood Senior Sister Moshuang's thoughts either. Senior Sister Moshuang and Brother Jiu might have had a fake marriage, but she must have truly fallen in love with him later on.

Senior Sister Moshuang was outstanding, so only Brother Jiu could be her equal.

In Geng Ji's opinion, Jing Moshuang's appearance did not matter. All he knew was that when the two of them had not been able to find a sect to join, Jing Moshuang had entered the Galaxy Sect. That was an outstanding act.


After hearing what He Tai said, Jing Moshuang wanted to explain why she had said that she was Di Jiu's wife. However, what she said instead was, "Senior Brother Geng Jihua…"

Geng Jihua hurriedly said, "Senior Sister Moshuang, you are now my sister-in-law. Call me by my name. It's Geng Ji now. I have changed my name."

Jing Moshuang blushed and asked hurriedly, "I would like to ask why you and Senior Brother Di would suddenly leave the Galaxy Sect."

"It was obviously for your sake," Geng Ji said. "Brother Jiu heard that someone seized your storage bag and wanted to stand up for you. Later on, he heard that the mastermind behind that incident was Ouyang Tao and got ready to settle the score. Ouyang Tao and Qiao Sa unexpectedly followed you out of the sect and plotted to kill you outside the sect. Brother Jiu and I chased after Ouyang Tao, and Brother Jiu killed Ouyang Tao and Qiao Sa…"

When his speech was over, Geng Ji looked down guiltily and rubbed the back of his head. "I was not capable to provide any help."

The woman had already guessed that Di Jiu's help had allowed her to escape from Ouyang Tao's pursuit. However, hearing it from Geng Ji still made her eye rims turn red.

She had never been at the receiving end of any concern since the day she had been born. People had only ever tried to sell her off. She had helped Di Jiu, or to be more exact, she had faced one ruse with another. This could not truly be considered help. However, because of this small matter, Di Jiu had risked his life to pursue Ouyang Tao.

She did not know how Di Jiu had managed to kill Ouyang Tao, but she imagined that it must have been extremely dangerous. Di Jiu had never cultivated before. How could it possibly be easy for him to kill a cultivator like Ouyang Tao?

After killing Ouyang Tao, Di Jiu must have been unable to stay in the Galaxy Sect. He had also had to face the pursuit of a Golden Core Realm Cultivator.

Nonetheless, Di Jiu had still taken action without caring for the consequences. She would have died if he had not done something about it after all. The reason he had done this was simply because she had conveniently brought Di Jiu along to the Lonely River City.

Her help had been insufficient to even form a water droplet. If one considered how Di Jiu had almost died in the Sky Screen because he had saved her, his gratitude to her had exceeded her expectations.

Jing Moshuang, who had originally intended to explain herself, let go of that notion. In any case, she never intended to marry someone else. Hence, regardless of whether Di Jiu wanted her, she would only recognize Di Jiu alone as her husband.

"Have you guys finished chatting? Geng Ji, tell us about Di Jiu's whereabouts." Xian Ze, who had already been bordering on impatience, clapped Geng Ji on the shoulder.

"Ever since I came out of cultivation, I've been constantly searching for Brother Jiu's whereabouts," Geng Ji said hastily. "About two months ago, my transmission pearl vaguely sensed Brother Jiu's position…"

"Let me see your transmission pearl," Xian Ze said immediately.

Geng Ji took out his transmission pearl and handed it over to Xian Ze. With one look, Xian Ze could tell that this transmission pearl was a low-level item. However, the transmission restriction within it was not bad. It actually almost reached Level Four.

"My transmission pearl did not receive any messages. What I sensed was the echo of the restriction. Unfortunately, I know nothing about array formations. The location the echo is coming from must be at the distant Western Province," explained Geng Ji.

Xian Ze nodded his head. "You're right. This kind of transmission pearl is better than a communication pearl in terms of restriction activation. This pearl must have been refined by Di Jiu. The restrictions within it were also engraved by Di Jiu, right? This low-level transmission pearl would not be able to receive any message once it left a certain range. However, if the person who refined this pearl created a Dharma Array that echoed with the restriction within this transmission pearl, the restriction would be activated once this transmission pearl got near the echoing Dharma Array."

Xian Ze returned the transmission pearl to Xian Ze and said, "Lead the way. We'll now head to the West Corral Plains. Thanks to this transmission pearl, we could easily find where the echoing Dharma Array Di Jiu set up is. The closer we get to the array, the more distinct the restriction activation will be and the more accurate the location will be."

"Junior Brother Geng, how did you manage to cultivate to the Essence Soul Realm so quickly?" Jing Moshuang had already decided that, regardless of whether Di Jiu wanted her, she had no intention of explaining herself. After making this decision, she agreed with Geng Ji and called him Junior Brother.

Geng Ji had no intention of hiding. "I found a Spirit Quintessence Lake…"

Spirit Quintessence Lake? Even Xian Ze was moved as he looked at Geng Ji. This thing was not ordinary.

"I took me three years to cultivate to the Essence Soul Realm inside the Spirit Quintessence Lake. Ever since I came out, I've been searching for Brother Jiu. After I obtained his approximate location, I started planning on coming back and drawing a symbol. If Brother Jiu came back to find me, he would know where I've gone when he saw that symbol…"

After hearing what Geng Ji said, Xian Ze said, "Geng Ji, a Spirit Quintessence Lake is a priceless treasure. Although Di Jiu left behind an echoing Dharma Array, that was only an indication of where he had gone. Your cultivation levels are still too low. Why don't we do it this way? I will take you guys to that Spirit Quintessence Lake to cultivate. Then, I will take Geng Ji's transmission pearl to the West Corral Plains alone to take a look. Once I have any news, I will come back to find you guys."

A Spirit Quintessence Lake was considered a priceless treasure even in the Small Central World. It would be a waste for this item to be left there.

Jing Moshuang was the most worried about seeing Di Jiu again. She only wished that Di Jiu was fine. When Xian Ze finished speaking, she was the first to say, "I'll follow your orders, sir."

Jing Moshuang was Di Jiu's wife. Thus, when she spoke, everyone else expressed their agreement. A Spirit Quintessence Lake was a treasure they had never dreamed they would ever obtain.



Di Jiu stopped. In front of him was a tightly-shut door.

The door, which was made of unknown materials, did not have any Dharma Array traces. However, his Spiritual Force could still not permeate it.

Di Jiu walked to the door, gathered his Quintessential Essence and pushed.

The door opened with a creak. Suddenly, an extremely dense Spirit Qi rushed out. Di Jiu's eyes widened as he looked at the scenery in front of him in disbelief.

Although his horizons were broad, he had never seen such a scene in his life. There were two long spirit meridians floating in the air. Below the two spirit meridians was a large spiritual herb garden.

The lowest level of spiritual herb within this spiritual herb garden was level eight. He even saw a level-nine Emperor Flower and a Rainbow Immortal Peach. Unfortunately, these spiritual plants were all withered, so none of them were still alive.

The Illumination Array cast shining rays of light, giving people the sense that this was an isolated world.

Di Jiu had set up various Dharma Arrays before himself. Usually, Dharma Arrays required spirit meridians to be implanted in the ground. This place, however, defied logic. The two spirit meridians were implanted in the air. It was evident that the fella who had once been here had definitely been a top-notch Array Dao Expert.

The only thing Di Jiu could not understand was why all the spiritual plants in the spiritual herb garden would die despite this dense Spirit Qi environment?

Di Jiu's gaze once again landed on the two spirit meridians. The Spirit Qi of these spirit meridians was much purer and more condensed than that of the dozen-feet-long spirit meridians he had obtained from the Heaven Saber Sect. These two spirit meridians were most likely supreme-grade spirit meridians.

However, this was still a good place to cultivate. When Di Jiu turned his body to close the doors, he realized that the door he had pushed open had already closed automatically.

Di Jiu opened his palm and the Heavenly Aqua Saber landed in his hand. He immediately spread his Spiritual Force to its widest range.

There was something odd about the materials of this door. It did not carry any restrictions or Dharma Arrays, and yet it was able to prevent the spirit meridian Spirit Qi from seeping through. Plus, it was strange that the door was able to close on its own despite having no Dharma Array as its source of energy.

At the border of his Spiritual Force was a dried-up lake. Beside the lake were some withered top-notch spiritual plants.

After confirming that there were no issues, Di Jiu took a few steps forward. When he was in-between the two spirit meridians, he felt a sudden heatwave. Before Di Jiu could react, a spatial force swept him away.
