When Shen Changshui arranged for the Wormhole guarding, Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia were allocated to the last area. However, more people came this time, so the two of them would not guard a wider area. Both of them guarded 10 feet together in total.
 

Even Ni Xiren kept thinking to himself that there was nothing for Di Jiu to fear anymore. Once Shen Changshui finished allocating the areas, Di Jiu immediately drew out his array flags and isolated the 10-feet area that Zhuo Wujia and he were guarding with an isolation Dharma Array.
 

Di Jiu had set up a level-seven Shielding Immortal Array. Unless someone snooped with their Spiritual Force by force, nobody would know about their movements.
 

When Shen Changshui saw Di Jiu’s action, he did not react at all. He had never treated someone who had taken an Ascension Dao Pill as a living person.
 

Shen Changshui did not say anything, and none of the other cultivators stepped forward to do so either. They had seen people protecting their area with a Defense Array in the Wormhole before. Some cultivators who were worried about exposing their divine powers would do the same. Di Jiu was not the first or the last person to do that.
 


Brother Zimo…
When Zhuo Wujia saw Di Jiu use a Defense Array to protect the 10-feet area that they were guarding, he could not help but warn Di Jiu.
By doing so, he basically seemed like a cultivator with secrets. Otherwise, he would not have done this. Now that he had, it was akin to making other people suspect him.
 

Di Jiu looked at the deep Wormhole and said,
This time, we have to climb up to the top 10 of the contribution point roll. We have to leave this place within a year, or we will die without a doubt.

 

Zhuo Wujia glanced at Di Jiu doubtfully, as he did not understand what Di Jiu meant by that.
 

Di Jiu sighed and added,
I’ve done something wrong and offended Ni Xiren recently. If I don’t leave within a year, I will die without a doubt and I’m afraid you will be implicated.

 


What?
Zhuo Wujia was even more puzzled.
 

Di Jiu said truthfully,
The Murderous Dao Lake is indeed not meant for cultivation, as there is a heptagonal Dao Seed there. Once you cultivate, your Dao will disintegrate. Previously, I thought it was something without an owner. However, I have now understood that it definitely has an owner. In the Murderous Dao Lake, the heptagonal Dao Seed was the one swallowing the Dao foundations of the cultivators that had yet to form their Dao Seed and condense their perfected Dao Seed…

 


There was a Dao Seed in the Murderous Dao Lake?
Zhuo Wujia was stunned.
 

Di Jiu nodded.
Yes, but I spoiled that Dao Seed. Now that I think of it, that Dao Seed should have an owner who is most likely from the Dao World. That person left the Dao Seed in the Murderous Dao Lake to swallow the cultivators’ Dao foundation. Thus, he is no ordinary person.

 


Before we entered the Murderous Dao Lake, Leader Shen had told us not to reside there and someone from the top also warned us not to reside there…
Zhuo Wujia frowned.
 

Di Jiu sneered.
If someone from the top really had instructed us not to reside by the Murderous Dao Lake, do you think we could still have done so?

 

Zhuo Wujia looked at Di Jiu in confusion.
 

Di Jiu scoffed.
Since this order was given to scare away ordinary cultivators, cultivators with a firm Dao heart would definitely not be scared away, just like we weren’t.

 


I understand. That heptagonal Dao foundation required the firm Dao heart of a cultivator’s Dao foundation. So…
Zhuo Wujia suddenly understood.
 

Di Jiu sighed.
Unfortunately, that fellow overestimated himself. He did not swallow our Dao foundations, and we had gotten rid of his Dao Seed. Therefore, this matter is far from done. I’m puzzled as to why nobody has come to find us yet. This seems unreasonable.

 

When Zhuo Wujia was completely aware of the danger of this matter, he said sternly,
Or maybe, this person lost his Dao foundation and is still in a coma. Either way, you are right, Brother Zimo. We have to leave in a year.

 

Di Jiu cupped his fists.
Brother Zhuo, I have offended too many people so I used an alias. My real name is Di Jiu.

 

Di Jiu believed that he was not wrong about Zhuo Wujia. He was someone he could befriend.
 

Zhuo Wujia also cupped his fists.
Thank you, Brother Di, for telling me your real name. I will now stick with you.

 

As soon as Di Jiu responded, overwhelming worms approached them.
 

At the moment, the area where Di Jiu and Zhuo Wujia were was protected by the isolation restriction. Di Jiu did not hesitate at all before killing the worms.
 

He killed dozens of them with one saber move, so with a few of his saber moves, the worms in the area were rapidly reduced. Only one or two of them were left eventually.
 

Zhuo Wujia looked at Di Jiu worriedly.
Brother Di, we won’t have any more worms to kill at this rate.

 

Di Jiu nodded his head and told Zhuo Wujia,
Don’t worry, I’ll enter the Wormhole.

 


Wasn’t your array disc…

 

Di Jiu interrupted Zhuo Wujia.
I don’t rely on just one array disc.

 

Di Jiu then took a step forward and disappeared. Even Zhuo Wujia’s Spiritual Force could not sense how Di Jiu had gone into the Wormhole.
 

After Di Jiu entered the Wormhole, he immediately went deep into it and set up a Confinement Killing Array midway.
 

Approximately less than one hour later, a big group of worms that were forced to retreat swept over. These worms all landed in Di Jiu’s Confinement Killing Array without exception so he started killing them without hesitation.
 

Di Jiu’s Nomological Array had been set up in the middle of the Wormhole. Thus, regardless of how capable these worms were, none of them made it out.
 

In just half an hour, Di Jiu had killed tens of thousands of worms without letting any of them escape.
 

Perhaps, this was the first time the worms that rushed toward the Defense Array entrance in the Wormhole were all killed completely.
 

Not too long afterward, Di Jiu looked at the worms he had reaped. This batch of worms had been killed only by him, including dozens of very precious worms.
 

Di Jiu knew very well that these precious worms were hard to obtain. It was not that they did not go to the Wormhole defense line, but they were all kept at the back and were even the last to go. Under normal circumstances, the cultivators who guarded the Wormhole basically could not face these precious worms directly.
 

After reaping enough worms, Di Jiu did not return immediately. Although he was certain enough to get out of the Wormhole without anyone finding out, he felt that it would be better if he was more careful.
 

This place mainly consisted of ascended cultivators from every realm who were well-known figures. He cultivated using the nomological cultivation technique and had the Spiritual Force escape technique. Who could be sure that there would not be anyone like him, who had been given a unique opportunity? Once he was discovered, Di Jiu would not be the only one dying.
 

Di Jiu waited for only two hours before the next wave of worms approached. He hid in the corner and when these worms flew past him, he could clearly sense that this wave was much smaller than the previous one.
 

It looked like there had been a great effect when he’d killed all the previous waves of worms.
 

Once this wave of worms passed, Di Jiu followed the worms. His body seemed to have become one with the surrounding Heaven Earth Law. None of the worms would discover him even if he followed them.
 

Once he reached the guarding entrance of the Wormhole, he immediately escaped out of the Wormhole and landed beside Zhuo Wujia.
 


Brother Di, you returned very quickly…
Zhuo Wujia looked at Di Jiu in pleasant surprise. He had not expected Di Jiu to return so quickly. Other people would have been courting death if they had entered the Wormhole, but to Di Jiu, the Wormhole was simply a wide path that could not stop him at all.
 

Di Jiu lifted his hand to execute his saber move, killing nearly 30 worms. He then took out his ring, handed it to Zhuo Wujia, and said,
Brother Zhuo, this is for you.

 

Zhuo Wujia took the ring and scanned it with his Spiritual Force. When he saw 10,000 to 20,000 worm corpses inside, he stared at Di Jiu in shock and said in disbelief,
You have…

 

Di Jiu nodded his head.
That’s right. I set up a Confinement Killing Array midway and killed all the previous waves of worms. Later, we will remove the Shielding Array formation and make it easy to kill the worms. I believe that these worms would be sufficient for both of us to leave this place.

 


Thank you, Brother Di. You’ve helped me several times. If you have any errands from now on, I, Zhuo Wujia, will do them at any cost even if I have to give up my life.
Zhuo Wujia was excited, as he had gained the contribution points he needed to climb up to the top 10 as well as a formidable friend like Di Jiu.
 


 COMMENT

Di Jiu’s power had simply surpassed his expectations.
 

He was certain that if Di Jiu went to the Microwood Immortal Continent, the 10 Great Immortal Emperors of the Microwood Immortal Continent would only seem like trash among trash in front of Di Jiu.
