Chapter 538: A Deal with Xu Baishang
“Tell me, how can you help me?” Di Jiu said faintly. He had already portrayed countless nomological array flags in the surroundings. He could thus get rid of Xu Baishang if he really wanted to abandon his physical body and escape.
Xu Baishang was very satisfied with Di Jiu’s straightforwardness “I’ll give you two pieces of advice. The first one is to hand over the Void Mountain’s refined stone tablet. After that, bring me to the location where the Void Mountain stone tablet was refined.”
Di Jiu smiled. “I have normal intelligence, so you better say something useful. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not speaking with you.”
Xu Baishang, who was not bothered by Di Jiu’s words, still responded, “The Void Mountain is actually my treasure. However, I was in a weak stage back then, which caused a group of people to fight over it. As a result, it landed between the two realms. Do you know why my surname is Xu? The Void Mountain has always been the Xu Family’s inherited treasure…”
Di Jiu was shocked. The Void Mountain was Xu Baishang’s treasure? However, he very soon understood that what he had said had to be an overstatement.
If the Void Mountain really belonged to Xu Baishang, how could he be bound by the Void Mountain’s Dao runes? Di Jiu suspected that Xu Baishang had most likely been the one who had discovered the Void Mountain first. When he had been prepared to refine the Void Mountain, the news had leaked and caused countless experts to come and fight for it.
Xu Baishang should be somewhat related to the Void Mountain. Or else, what right did he have to not die?
Upon seeing Di Jiu not say a word and frown, Xu Baishang sighed and added, “You will come to understand when you refine the Void Mountain later on. It simply cannot be refined at all unless I am willing to force out a drop of the Xu Family’s Blood Essence.”
Xu Baishang glanced at Di Jiu. “The Void Mountain is only a Dharma treasure, even though it is not bad. It is more of a symbol of inheritance from my ancestors. I will give you 10 Dao meridians if you are willing to give the Void Mountain to me. At the same time, I will also give you a Quintessential World and the way to the Dao World. Of course, I still owe you three favors, so you can make three requests.”
“Are you done talking?” Di Jiu asked calmly.
Xu Baishang knew that Di Jiu was not satisfied with his proposal when he took a look at him. He thus said, “You don’t look very satisfied with my proposal. You can have the Void Mountain since you must have it. I will give you a drop of Blood Essence to refine the Void Mountain. I can also provide you with information on the Dao World and tell you how to enter it.”
“Tell me about your request.” Di Jiu did not express an opinion.
“Just let me leave after you have refined the Void Mountain and remove its Dao rune chains,” Xu Baishang told him sincerely.
“How can I trust that you will not make a move on me after you leave?” Di Jiu chuckled.
Xu Baishang immediately replied, “I can vow with my Dao as long as you agree to my request. Of course, you will have to do the same.”
“It’s a deal. However, there are some conditions. Firstly, you have to give me 10 Dao meridians. Secondly, you have to tell me how to enter the Dao World. Thirdly, you have to give me some information on the Dao World. Next, you have to give me a drop of your Blood Essence. Finally, you have to go to the Dao World within three breaths of vowing with your Dao. Oh, that’s right. I’m called Di Jiu. You have to remember that clearly. Oh, and I don’t ever vow with my Dao. It is a deal if you agree to it. Otherwise, I will leave first.”
Di Jiu did not forbid Xu Baishang to have any intentions about the Void Mountain after he vowed. He knew he would have said it for nothing. As for vowing with his Dao, Xu Baishang was overthinking.
Xu Baishang somewhat struggled for a long time before he said, “Alright. I, Xu Baishang, will vow with my Dao. If you remove the Dao rune chains locked onto me, I will return to the Dao World within three breaths. Otherwise, my Dao will be entirely destroyed and it will disappear when I die.”
After he vowed, Xu Baishang forced out a drop of Blood Essence and bound it with a restriction with his fastest speed before throwing it to Di Jiu.
He also looked up to Di Jiu deep down. Di Jiu actually had not forbidden him to make a move after he vowed. He knew that such a vow was useless. However, he believed that Di Jiu was an impressive fellow with plenty of generosity. He could not do anything even if Di Jiu did not vow with his Dao. Xu Baishang was currently in a passive situation, so Di Jiu could leave at any moment and he could only choose to make a deal with him.
It was not easy to wait for someone to come to the Void Mountain. He’d only waited for two people to come all these years. That Qi Jun fellow had helped him recuperate for some time even before he could help him.
He definitely had to be careful if he made an enemy like Di Jiu in the future.
Di Jiu took the Blood Essence and said softly, “Don’t forget the Dao meridian and the way to the Dao World.”
“Ha ha…” Xu Baishang laughed out loud. “I’ll believe you this once and give it to you first.”
Xu Baishang then grabbed a ring and handed it to Di Jiu. “I only have one Dao meridian on me now. I will definitely compensate you when you reach the Upper Realm. I have engraved the way to the Dao World on the jade slip, but it’s not up to me whether you can do it.”
While Xu Baishang thought that Di Jiu would certainly ask why he only had one Dao meridian, Di Jiu did not even say anything. He only took the ring and nodded. “Alright, I will then refine the Void Mountain first.”
Upon seeing Di Jiu leave immediately, Xu Baishang, who had prepared a pile of excuses, felt that he had made an effort for nothing.
…
Di Jiu was already very satisfied with Xu Baishang for taking a Dao meridian out for him. He had known long ago that Xu Baishang would not take out 10 Dao meridians.
He did not mind Xu Baishang’s vow either. As long as Di Jiu refined the Void Mountain, Xu Baishang certainly would not catch up with him even if he disregarded his vow.
Di Jiu once again returned to the indentation where the refined Void Mountain had been. He took out that piece of the white-jade stone tablet and sent it into the indentation.
Once the white-jade stone tablet entered the indentation, mysterious and esoteric auras of Dao runes were emitted. Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force rapidly locked onto these Dao rune auras and his Nomological Qi Circulation started to refine them at the same time.
As Xu Baishang had mentioned, Di Jiu could not refine these Dao rune auras. He could faintly sense that they lacked something before he could refine them.
By this point, Di Jiu was completely sure that as long as he took out the drop of Blood Essence of Xu Baishang, he could certainly start refining the Void Mountain.
However, Di Jiu had never thought of using Xu Baishang’s Blood Essence. He would not do so even if the Void Mountain indeed belonged to the Xu Family and required Xu Baishang’s Blood Essence to be refined. The reason he had asked for Xu Baishang’s Blood Essence was not to refine the Void Mountain.
Di Jiu held onto the white-jade stone tablet with both hands as his Nomological Qi Circulation permeated it. Since he was unable to refine the Void Mountain, he had to first think of a way to form a Qi Circulation with the Void Mountain’s law.
Di Jiu then captured a boundless law of the Dao runes which contained the aura of a cultivator. He was sure that the Void Mountain had been refined before previously and this was the aura of the person who had refined it.
It looked like Xu Baishang was right. This cultivator was very likely Xu Baishang’s ancestor.
If that was the case, Di Jiu should be able to start the process of refining the Void Mountain very quickly if he integrated Xu Baishang’s Blood Essence now.
Another cultivator might only have been left with two choices. He had to either choose not to refine the Void Mountain or use Xu Baishang’s Blood Essence first to allow the Void Mountain to belong to him first. As for Xu Baishang’s Blood Essence, he would slowly strip it off after the Void Mountain belonged to him.
Di Jiu was the only one who had a third method. He would use the Ninth World, which contained a Ninth Dao Law. Not only would this allow him to form his own Nomological Qi Circulation technique, but it would also allow him to be even clearer than anyone about the Heaven Earth Law in the universe at the same time.
What Di Jiu needed to do was first use the Nomological Qi Circulation to strip off that human cultivator’s aura before he refined the Void Mountain.
