Chapter 648: Di Xinren

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Xu Baishang kept monitoring the surveillance screen. After he saw Jiang Dai really appear in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, he felt a deeper fear for Di Jiu.

When Jiang Dai tore Di Jiu’s Defense Array and stepped into his Explosive Divine Array, Xu Baishang felt that Jiang Dai was nothing. However, when Jiang Dai stepped into it, he once again stepped out. Xu Baishang sighed, as he knew that Di Jiu’s scheme had failed. The older the wiser indeed.

Even if Di Jiu detonated the Confinement Killing Array and the Explosive Divine Array now, he supposed that he could not even crumple Jiang Dai’s clothing.

Xu Baishang was truly shocked that even though Jiang Dai had clearly gotten out of Di Jiu’s Defense Array, his Confinement Killing Array and Explosive Array had unexpectedly shifted, confining Jiang Dai inside before quickly exploding.

How had he managed to do this? He was sure that nobody in the Dao World had such a technique.

He was unaware of Jiang Dai’s current situation, but Xu Baishang’s heart grew somewhat cold. He did not dare to look at Di Jiu and was suddenly swayed off his own plan.

He truly wanted to cooperate with Di Jiu. However, after arriving in the Void City, he would immediately contact his father. Once he did so, he would join forces with his father and kill Di Jiu before snatching everything from him, naturally including the Void Mountain.

When he had previously asked around whether Di Jiu had the Void Mountain, he had been preparing to snatch it away.

Now that Di Jiu was so terrifying and had continuously plotted against Jiang Dai several times, Xu Baishang felt somewhat cold with fear. If by any chance his father and he could not kill Di Jiu, Di Jiu would probably become the Xu Family’s nightmare.

Xu Baishang let out a slow sigh and decided to meet his father first. He only hoped that his father had reached Dao Integration. Otherwise, he would take the initiative to persuade him not to make a move on Di Jiu.

...

Pfft! Jiang Dai opened his mouth to spit a few mouthfuls of blood arrows and rushed out of the ruptured space. Compared to when he had just entered, he was much more dispirited.

Only he knew that thanks to Di Jiu’s Divine Array Chain explosion, he had already suffered serious injuries. Fortunately, there were not many Primordial Chaos experts in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City right now. Otherwise, Jiang Dai would have been unable to bear the consequences of failure.

“Senior Jiang...” Upon finding out about the terrifying explosion that had taken place in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, Deputy City Lord Ji Lu, who stayed there, immediately rushed to the venue.

R

Ji Lu was shocked to see Jiang Dai immediately. Hadn’t he gone to the Void City? Why had he come to the Dark Red Sacred Dao City?

Jiang Dai snorted, not caring about Ji Lu. He extended his body and rushed out of the Dark Red Sacred Dao City.

He knew very well that since Di Jiu had plotted against him, he would not have a chance to capture Di Jiu here.

At the moment, Jiang Dai felt deep hatred and some fear in his heart. He had underestimated Di Jiu, so someone had plotted against him for the first time. Di Jiu had continuously plotted against him, which showed that Di Jiu was not as weak as he’d thought he was.

Upon seeing Jiang Dai leave, Ji Lu looked at the deep ravine created by the explosion of the major array and stayed silent for a while.

He had personally told Di Jiu that Jiang Dai would go to the Void City. He had also said that Jiang Dai would make use of the Plane Rift Talisman that many Primordial Chaos experts of the Void Ocean had to go to the Void City.

Jiang Dai had come to the Dark Red Sacred Dao City once again. Theoretically, he had not come unexpectedly to stop Di Jiu. However, not only had Di Jiu not been stopped by Jiang Dai, but he had also plotted against him here.

It was evident that Di Jiu had not believed his words. He did not know whether what he had said would cause Di Jiu to misunderstand and feel offended.

Right now, Ji Lu was more afraid of Di Jiu than Jiang Dai. Even though Jiang Dai’s cultivation level could evidently crush Di Jiu, Di Jiu had plotted against him. This showed how terrifying Di Jiu was. Ji Lu had not misjudged him.

...

At the same time, Xu Baishang sighed and said, “Jiang Dai is seriously injured.”

Even though he was far away from the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, Xu Baishang could still sense that the Dao runes around Jiang Dai were not stable thanks to the Surveillance Array.

Di Jiu told Xu Baishang with cupped fists, “Brother Xu, thank you. If you were not rational, I think my days would have been hard to live.”

Di Jiu had tried his best to overestimate Jiang Dai. However, after seeing Jiang Dai rush out of the explosive core of the Divine Array Chain, he knew that he had underestimated him.

Jiang Dai was more terrifying than he had expected. Could he be a true Primordial Chaos expert?

He was thankful to Xu Baishang because he knew very well that if he’d truly wanted to count on the explosion of the Confinement Killing Array and surround Jiang Dai before attacking him, he would very likely have been seriously injured by Jiang Dai and might even have perished.

Although he could use the Five-Element Flags now and raise the level of the Explosive Divine Array, Di Jiu believed that even if the Explosive Divine Array’s level was raised, he would not pose a fatal threat to Jiang Dai.

Di Jiu was certain that Xu Baishang would not stay behind to deal with Jiang Dai with him. Xu Baishang would definitely escape immediately.

Xu Baishang kept his fear for Di Jiu under control and said with loud laughter, “Brother Di, we’re partners, so you’re treating me as an outsider by thanking me.”

At that moment, he suddenly regretted not agreeing to Di Jiu’s suggestion.

If he had agreed to Di Jiu’s suggestion and stayed in the Dark Red Sacred Dao City, Di Jiu would have been killed by Jiang Dai right now.

He knew very well that the chance to obtain the Void Mountain from Di Jiu had become increasingly uncertain. If he could not obtain the Void Mountain, he would rather be killed by Di Jiu.

He also wanted to back out and not go to the Void City with Di Jiu. However, he then realized that even if he did not bring Di Jiu to the Void City, Di Jiu would still improve rapidly.

Di Jiu nodded his head. “Brother Xu, let’s go to the Void City now.”

Even though Xu Baishang did not want to go, Di Jiu wanted to go to the Void City in a hurry. After Di Jiu had seen Jiang Dai’s strength, he knew very well that if he did not reach the second step, he would have no right to talk to Jiang Dai.

“Alright, I know exactly where the weak space to the Void City is. Let’s go there.” Xu Baishang appeared to be very forthright and generous.

“Brother Xu, please lead the way.” Di Jiu was very polite to Xu Baishang.

He did not allow Ding Chi and Lightning to come out of the Quintessential World, just because they were far from the Dark Red Sacred Dao City. As long as he was joining forces with Xu Baishang, he would not allow Ding Chi to come out.

Xu Baishang was kind of powerful. If Xu Baishang sneaked an attack on him all of a sudden, letting Ding Chi out would be akin to harming him.

Xu Baishang drove his high-grade flying boat. When the flying boat moved forward, he was still chatting about everything with Di Jiu.

Di Jiu had wanted to use Xu Baishang’s talisman to head to the Void City at first. Now that he had chatted with Xu Baishang, he had learned many things he had not heard before. He had even understood some information about the Ten Major Geniuses of the past and he knew that Jiang Dai was a sinister person in their eyes.

Di Jiu did not ask about Zhong Ao’s news specifically, but Xu Baishang told him some things. Xu Baishang certainly was unaware that Zhong Ao had been harmed and trapped in the River and Mountain Kettle by Zhong You. According to Xu Baishang, Zhong You and Zhong Ao were good friends but the two of them had vanished in the end.

“Brother Di, was Jiang Dai considered the strongest among the Ten Major Geniuses back then?” Since they were talking about this topic, Di Jiu naturally wanted to ask about Jiang Dai. If he asked about Zhong Ao, Xu Baishang would definitely get suspicious. However, it did not matter if he asked about Jiang Dai. Xu Baishang knew Jiang Dai and he held a huge grudge.

Xu Baishang sneered. “Jiang Dai is indeed a sly person who tolerates things silently. I believe that his true ranking should be within the top three. However, he’s still far from the first place. There were two levels among the Ten Major Geniuses back then. The first level included Di Xinren, while the second level included the remaining nine.”

“Di Xinren?” Di Jiu asked.

Xu Baishang nodded solemnly. “That’s right. Di Xinren was the true genius and the top expert among the Ten Major Geniuses. His strength far surpassed the remaining nine geniuses’ strength.

However, after the battle for the ranking of the Ten Major Geniuses ended, Di Xinren vanished. Nobody knew where he went. I guess that he left the Dao World because it was restraining his Dao. I don’t know what level Di Xinren is at right now, but I’m sure that if Jiang Dai stood before Di Xinren, he would still be considered nothing.”
