Di Jiu took a deep breath and calmed his emotions. He then said without the slightest hesitation, “So it’s Hall Master Jiang. I’ve been disrespectful…”
Di Jiu’s voice then abruptly turned cold. “I’m from the First Evolution Dao Sect. Tell Hall Master Jiang that I’m unwilling to enter this array door and let him find the Sect Master of the First Evolution Dao Sect.”
With that, Di Jiu immediately left.
After he walked far away, he felt silently thankful. If he had really stepped into that array door, he would certainly have been investigated by Jiang Dai with fervor.
Now that he had not stepped into the array door, perhaps Jiang Dai would only ask about him.
When someone else set up an array door and threatened but one hurriedly stepped into it, it showed a guilty conscience. One had to be worried about having a thorough investigation on them if they did not step in.
How many of the people who had entered the Dao Ridge were not top-notch geniuses? As a genius, one naturally had to have the intelligence of a genius. A genius would not do as someone told them. Moreover, the geniuses there basically represented some formidable sects. If they listened to Jiang Dai and entered the array door, they would disgrace their sect and cause their grandeur to diminish.
No matter how impressive Jiang Dai was, he would not dare to casually suppress these formidable sects, right? The Dao Transformation cultivator had also mentioned that it was up to Di Jie whether he entered the array door or not. Di Jiu had entered the Dao Ridge with the status of the First Evolution Dao Sect. Regardless of whether he was an outer sect disciple, he had been in the top 20 of the elixir competition. If he had heeded and entered the array door, Jiang Dai would definitely have looked for him and investigated him thoroughly.
On the contrary, he had not entered the array door and had instead walked away nonchalantly. Perhaps, he would be fine.
In Di Jiu’s opinion, some sects’ disciples were fine after entering that array door. After all, people from small sects would dare not resist Jiang Dai’s instructions.
Upon seeing that Di Jiu had not entered the array door and had left, the Dao Transformation cultivator at the entrance looked at Di Jiu, who had gone away, in amazement and mumbled, “He actually did not enter the array door. How brave.”
If Di Jiu had known that the cultivators who had come out at the beginning had all entered the array door, including the Five Major Sects’ disciples, he surely would not have left just like that. The only thing that he had gotten wrong was Jiang Dai’s position in the Dao World.
…
Since it was neither a Divine Dao City or a Sacred Dao City, the Great Weapon City had a special name in the Dao World: Great Weapon.
Even though it was not a Sacred Dao City, this city was extremely famous in the entire Dao World. The prosperity of the Great Weapon City was not any poorer than any Sacred Dao City’s. Whenever anyone went there, it was always bustling with people.
All sorts of inns ran the best businesses. The Great Weapon City was a blacksmithing city. Anyone who came could purchase all kinds of Dharma treasures and materials.
Of course, if one had all kinds of Dharma treasures and materials, they could sell them in the Great Weapon City.
There were countless famous blacksmiths, and numerous Blacksmith Dao Sects in the Dao World had a garrison here.
By the time Di Jiu arrived in the Great Weapon City, half a month had passed. This time, he had disguised himself into a tough young expert. Since he cultivated the Nomological Dao, as long as he did not take the initiative to show his cultivation level, even a second-step expert might not necessarily be able to see his true strength. Experts like Di Jiu who used this kind of disguise came mostly from major sects. If their own interests were not threatened, very few people would be willing to clash with such a person.
The instant that Di Jiu left the Dao Ridge, he understood why Jiang Dai had intercepted him. It was definitely because of the Five-Element Flags.
There was definitely a problem with Jiang Dai’s Five-Element escape technique. Even though Di Jiu had cultivated the Five-Element escape technique before, he had cut it off without hesitation during his Dao Modeling. He was only related to Jiang Dai through the Five-Element Array flags. After all, if there were problems in other areas, then Jiang Dai would not have stopped him at the Dao Ridge but somewhere else.
Di Jiu believed that he had refined the Five-Element Flags. After the issues at the Dao Ridge, he was sure that he had not done so. At the Dao Ridge, he had taken out the Five-Element Flags and revealed himself as a result.
In other words, there was still a secret within the Five-Element Flags that he had not found. This made Di Jiu feel very worried. He had thrown the Five-Element Flags in the Ninth World, not daring to take it out. After his flame advanced, he had decided to use the Dao fire to refine the Five-Element Flags again. He did not believe that he could not find any traces left behind by Jiang Dai.
Fortunately, Jiang Dai definitely was unaware of his specific location. Therefore, he had not personally been at the entrance of the Dao Ridge. Instead, he had made a Dao Transformation cultivator guard the place.
Di Jiu was a Divine Weapon Master who could refine low-grade divine weapons. That day, he did not go to the Great Weapon City for blacksmithing or to purchase Dharma treasures but to search for a treasure to advance his flame.
There was definitely a treasure that could advance his flame in the Great Weapon City.
Di Jiu asked around. In the entire Great Weapon City, the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion was the best bet. It was rumored that there used to be a connate treasure in the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion. However, regardless of whether this rumor was true or not, the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion was now the biggest place in the Great Weapon City.
Once Di Jiu entered the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion, he saw all kinds of unimaginable low-grade divine weapons. Di Jiu casually had a look. Even the cheapest low-grade ring hook cost over 10,000 high-grade divine crystals.
The cost of a slightly better low-grade divine weapon ranged from dozens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. Di Jiu sighed. Both alchemy and blacksmithing were good pathways. However, the Blacksmith Dao and the Alchemy Dao were equally hard. If an ordinary cultivator did not have enough time for cultivation, how would they have the time to delve into them?
Apart from very few exceptions, most Blacksmith Dao experts’ cultivation levels were not very high, as they had not spent a long time in cultivation yet.
Even if Di Jiu did not cultivate the Nomological Dao, he would not have had the right to delve into the Blacksmith Dao and the Alchemy Dao, let alone the Array Dao.
Di Jiu’s gaze casually scanned the area and landed on a huge signboard.
There was a total of seven floors in the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion. On the lowest floor, all sorts of low-grade divine weapons and low-level blacksmithing materials were sold. Likewise, this place also purchased all sorts of divine weapons and blacksmithing materials.
The second floor sold middle-grade divine weapons, the third floor sold high-grade divine weapons, the fourth floor sold supreme-grade divine weapons, while the fifth floor sold all sorts of top-notch materials.
“Sir, may I ask what you are looking for?” When a pretty female cultivator saw Di Jiu pay attention to the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion’s signboard, she hurriedly came over.
Di Jiu replied in a somewhat hoarse voice, “Are there any materials that can upgrade flames?”
Upon hearing that, the pretty female cultivator said even more enthusiastically, “Sir, if you want to advance an ordinary flame, I can take you to the fifth floor to take a look.”
The guests who normally asked about materials to advance their flames were truly rich owners.
Di Jiu nodded his head. “Alright. Take me to the fifth floor.”
“Please come this way, sir.” When she heard that Di Jiu really wanted to go to the fifth floor, the female cultivator got excited. There was nothing cheap on the fifth floor. As long as Di Jiu purchased only one item, her commission would be enough for her to cultivate for some time.
Di Jiu, who followed the female cultivator, did not see any experts on the way. However, he could sense a strong Spiritual Force vaguely scanning him from time to time.
Once he entered the fifth floor, Di Jiu was shocked by the materials there. He had obtained many good things, but apart from the Nirvana Black Metal Stone and the nomological fragments, he could not take anything else out.
Very soon, he saw a few materials that could advance his flame—Flame-Gathering Purple Crystal, Divine Fire Silk, and Yin Concealment Flame Pearl.
The Flame-Gathering Purple Crystal was the cheapest of those materials and cost 7,000,000 high-grade divine crystals. The Divine Fire Silk cost 20,000,000 high-grade divine crystals.
Di Jiu was disappointed. Even though these materials that could advance his flame were very expensive, they were not something he needed. To get from an immortal flame to a divine flame, his flame had to take a big step. He needed something better. If he used these items, he would very likely fail. Even if he succeeded, it would be nothing good for his Dao fire. If he caused the Dao fire to lose its spirituality, it would be destroyed.
“Are there any better ones?” Di Jiu asked in disappointment.
When the pretty female cultivator heard this, she felt gloomy. She was sure that Di Jiu was pretending. If the Divine Fire Silk was not good enough to advance his flame, what else could be better?
However, she still explained calmly, “If you want something better, you have to go to the Dao Trade Meeting. There are two hours left before the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion holds a Dao Trade Meeting on the sixth floor. If you are lucky, you might be able to exchange something for a better advancing material than the Divine Fire Silk.”
A strange characteristic of the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion was that no matter how much good stuff they had, they certainly would not organize an auction. If anyone wanted to purchase good stuff at the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion, they could become a guest of the Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion and enjoy the right to participate in the Hundred-Night Dao Trade Meeting.
The Hundred-Night Weapon Pavilion also easily organized Dao Trade Meetings. Of course, those who went there were rich owners. Ordinary cultivators did not even have the right to enter the pavilion.
