Chapter 328: The Starry Sky Immortal City
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Di Jiu preferred to go without something than accept a shoddy option. He wanted to build a home, so he would never allow murder to happen in the Immortal City. He would not lower his requirements, even if no one wanted to leave with him.
The remaining 123 people were all willing to enter the examination array. Di Jiu’s array was meant to discover whether the cultivator had lied or used other cultivators’ Blood Essence for refining. Anyone who had refined the Blood Essence of other cultivators would be detected the moment they entered the array.
As long as one was willing to enter the array, they would answer tough logical questions and the fluctuations of the candidate’s aura would be tracked. This was meant to identify any cultivators who had murdered others for their treasure. Although it was not guaranteed that all unsuitable cultivators would be identified by using this method, few cultivators would get away without being exposed.
After the test, 109 people out of the 123 people had passed. Apparently, most cultivators who did not qualify had quit long ago. All the people who went for the test knew themselves, except for a minority of cultivators who wanted to try their luck.
Di Jiu was very satisfied. Although only slightly more than 100 people left with him, they would be the building blocks of the new Immortal City.
“Let’s go. We are heading to the site of the new Immortal City.” Di Jiu took out a low-grade immortal weapon. It was the flying Dharma treasure.
He had just obtained this treasure from Zheng Sanxing’s ring. However, Di Jiu did not have to spend much time to refine a low-grade immortal weapon because of his strong Spiritual Force.
It took the group six months to reach the Sky Bamboo River, because there were more than 100 people onboard and the group had to collect resources from some abandoned immortal cities and sects on the way.
There was no news from Qu Tong, who had headed towards the Thearch Robe Sea, by the time Di Jiu brought the group back.
The Thearch Robe Sea was almost equidistant from the Sky Bamboo River compared to the Three-Element Immortal City. However, Di Jiu used the Spiritual Force escape technique on his way to the Three-Element Immortal City. Qu Tong did not have the Spiritual Force escape technique, so his speed was significantly lower than Di Jiu’s.
“Is this the Sky Bamboo River? The site of the Sky Bamboo Immortal Sect?” a male cultivator exclaimed the moment Di Jiu got off the flying boat.
Di Jiu had familiarized himself with the over 100 people during the trip. The cultivator who had spoken was Wang Qi, who had perfected the Domain Realm. He had been in the Sunset Immortal World for nearly 500 years, so if he did not attain the Perfected Immortal Realm soon, he would perish.
He had been to more places than Di Jiu in over 500 years. Although he had never been to the Sky Bamboo River, he had heard of it before.
Di Jiu nodded. “That’s right, this is the Sky Bamboo River. Qu Tong discovered this place. He is away now, but he will be back soon. I want to build an Immortal City here. The reason why I have invited everyone here is not only because I want to populate this area, but also because I need your help in building the city.”
It was a complete lie that a man could not build an Immortal City. It was just a matter of time.
Di Jiu did not have much interest in building the Immortal City by using an excessive amount of time, as his focus was on the defense of the city.
Although the city would not attract much attention when it was newly-established, as the Major Five-Element Array ensured and gathered the light from providence in the Immortal World, the city would grow in size.
The Immortal City would eventually attract a lot of attention, as it would be an Immortal City where every cultivator would be able to cultivate normally.
Di Jiu did not care about the name of the Immortal City, unlike the cultivators in the Sunset Immortal World. His ability was one of the best in the Sunset Immortal World, so his only concern was that the Immortal City would attract the attention of the Newborn Immortal Protectorate.
Di Jiu had not only found out more about the Newborn Immortal Protectorate from Bei Chutai, but also from the cultivators of the Three-Element Immortal City as they had been on their way to the Sky Bamboo River. It was said that practically every surviving immortal went to the Newborn Immortal Protectorate.
To be honest, all the treasures that could ensure the light from providence had been stolen. Di Jiu did not believe that the Newborn Immortal Protectorate could be reborn. He was sure that, after some time, the Newborn Immortal Protectorate would just turn into an extension of the Sunset Immortal Protectorate.
Murder would take place if people competed over the available cultivation sites in the Newborn Immortal Protectorate.
Therefore, he needed an extremely strong Defense Array to build a city. Furthermore, his opponents were not ordinary immortals, but immortals from the Newborn Immortal Protectorate.
The cultivators that followed Di Jiu to the Sky Bamboo River did not have high hopes, as they knew that this would be the location of the new immortal city.
In fact, many places in the Immortal World were better than the Sky Bamboo River. Even the location of the Three-Element Immortal City was better. There were far too many options for building an Immortal City in the Sunset Immortal World. Thus, they were puzzled as to why Di Jiu had chosen the Sky Bamboo River.
“City Lord, are we really going to build a Fortune Gathering Immortal Array here?” someone asked.
Although the group was not optimistic about building the Immortal City in the Sky Bamboo River, they decided to listen to Di Jiu since they had followed him there. They did not have a way out anymore, as they had left the Three-Element Immortal City.
Di Jiu stood before the over 100 cultivators and said loudly, “What I want to build is not just a simple Fortune Gathering Immortal Array, but a real Immortal City that allows everyone to cultivate and attain the Perfected Immortal Realm or even higher realms.”
Di Jiu’s words caused a commotion as the group started to talk softly. Di Jiu had never said such a thing on the trip. Hence, it was a huge blow to the group when he said it now.
To them, being able to cultivate and attain the Perfected Immortal Realm were two separate matters. Attaining even higher realms, like Di Jiu had mentioned, was unimaginable. Thus, nobody took this seriously.
They had once entered the Three-Element Immortal City because it had been said that they could cultivate there. However, they had merely been given ordinary Spirit Qi to maintain their cultivation experience.
Therefore, Di Jiu’s claim that everyone would attain the Perfected Immortal Realm was astonishing.
“City Lord, will we really be able to transform Immortal Essence and attain the Perfected Immortal Realm after we build the city?” A cultivator asked the question everyone wanted to ask.
Di Jiu said resolutely, “Yes, that’s why this Immortal City requires everybody’s effort. I cannot build it by myself. I also want to tell you that transforming Immortal Essence does not equal attaining the Perfected Immortal Realm, but passing the Perfected Immortal Thunder Tribulation. Any immortals who have merely transformed the Immortal Essence without passing the tribulation thunder are fake immortals to me.”
There was a lukewarm response after Di Jiu spoke. The Perfected Immortal Thunder Tribulation? He he… He had such a wild imagination. They had seen many Perfected Immortal Realm cultivators ever since they had arrived at the Sunset Immortal Protectorate, but not a single person had attained the Perfected Immortal Realm after passing the Perfected Immortal Thunder Tribulation.
“City Lord, please give us some instructions. We will all do as you say.” The over 100 cultivators promised this without uniformity after hearing Di Jiu’s firm answer. The crowd did not care about Di Jiu’s exaggerated speech. They would be contented as long as this place was like the Three-Element Immortal City minus the casual killings that happened there.
Di Jiu knew that no one believed his words, but he did not care. “Everyone, I will speak very frankly. Firstly, like I said before, there will be new rules in the new Immortal City. I have decided on the laws, so everyone will get a copy of them. The new city will follow this set of rules without any exceptions. Secondly, I have drawn a city plan, which will be handed over to Liu Yuxin and Qin Fujian for execution. Thirdly, the Bamboo River will be preserved and incorporated in the new city. Fourthly, I need to set up a Defense Array while we are building the new city. Liu Yuxin and Qin Fujian!”
Liu Yuxin and Qin Fujian immediately approached when they heard Di Jiu calling them.
Liu Yuxin was the most grateful to Di Jiu. Not only had he saved her and brought her to this place, but he had also retrieved her ring, which had been stolen by Zheng Sanxing.
Liu Yuxin opened the ring and took a look. There were exactly 13,026 low-grade immortal crystals in it, no more or less. Based on this, she could tell that Di Jiu was a trustworthy person.
Di Jiu raised his hand and more than 100 jade scrolls flew out and landed in everyone’s hands accurately.
“My fellow Daoists, these jade scrolls contain all the laws and plans I have made for the new Immortal City. Liu Yuxin and Qin Fujian will be in charge of building the Immortal City. Do cooperate with them and build the Immortal City together.”
Nobody stood up against Di Jiu, as he had not invited them over to be served.
“City Lord, we may not have sufficient resources for building the city,” said Qin Fujian after seeing Di Jiu’s plan. He knew instantly that the resources they had gathered along the way were terribly insufficient.
Di Jiu handed a ring over to Liu Yuxin and said, “There are tons of resources in here. The resources for the main body could be extracted and refined from it.”
“Yes, Senior Brother Di.” Liu Yuxin took the ring immediately, as she knew that Di Jiu trusted her.
Di Jiu, who had thought about the resources long ago, had killed two City Lords and taken a sizable amount of resources from them.
“City Lord, since this is a new Immortal City, it should have a new name as well.” Wang Qi stepped up and spoke again.
“You are right. I have a name in mind. The city will be called the Starry Sky Immortal City,” Di Jiu answered.
Di Jiu had cultivated the Galaxy Art. However, this was no longer the case ever since he had cultivated the Starry Sky Meridian. In addition, his Dao fire was called the Luminous Starry Sky. Therefore, this name represented Di Jiu’s cultivation technique and Dao fire.
