On the way deep into the Dao Ridge, Di Jiu had seen the tattered Dharma treasures and some sects’ tattered ruins more than once.
 

In many places with distinct traces of the huge battle were mottled Dao runes. Some places even had very clear Dao runes. As long as one stared blankly for some time, one could understand the direction of the Dao force of the experts who had perished there.
 

Di Jiu finally understood. It was no wonder that this was a place for Dao Enlightenment. Once a perfected Dao Modeling cultivator or a perfected Dao Birth cultivator found a place suitable for their Dao force, they could really break through their shackles and attain a higher level.
 

However, Di Jiu knew that these things were not useful to him. After all, he cultivated the Nomological Dao. No matter how formidable the experts who had perished in the Dao Ridge were or how clear the traces of the sects’ ruins were, he could not find an inheritance of the Nomological Dao. His Nomological Dao was formed by a mixture of his Ninth Dao Law, Sacred Yin Pearl, and Dao force.
 

Both the Ninth Dao Law and the Sacred Yin Pearl followed the distribution of the universe. There was definitely nobody who could cultivate this Dao before him. Even if there was an inheritance, it would be passed on to the cultivators after him.
 

Even if there was such an inheritance, Di Jiu would not use it for Dao Validation. Even if he succeeded in the Dao Validation, it would be someone else’s Dao that he had validated.
After Di Jiu realized that the Dao Ridge’s Dao was not useful for him, he did not bother continuing to understand someone else’s Dao.
 

Since he had come to the Dao Ridge with great difficulty, he naturally could not just leave this place like this.
 

It was rumored that in the Dao Ridge, apart from being able to validate one’s Dao, cultivators with good opportunities could also obtain the historical ruins of ancient experts. Someone had even obtained a Dao meridian there.
 

Di Jiu thought that since Xu Baishang had casually agreed to give him 10 Dao meridians, Dao meridians were not rare in the Dao World. They were like immortal spirit meridians: One could still obtain many more of them after improving their cultivation level. Di Jiu had obtained a huge pile of supreme-grade immortal spirit meridians from Dai He Hall.
 

After Di Jiu truly arrived in the Dao World, he realized right away that Dao meridians were the most precious things in the Dao World. Even a low-grade Dao meridian was enough to allow a middle-class sect to possess a certain foundation.
 

It was no wonder that when he had taken out half of the Dao meridian to teleport out of the Leaping Dao Door Divine City, the deacon had not even retorted. He had immediately allowed him to go wherever he wanted.
 

As Di Jiu searched for historical ruins of treasures, he understood the nomological escape technique. At the same time, he also deduced the nomological fluctuation of the Dao.
 

As time flew by, Di Jiu’s nomological escape technique became more and more perfected. Later on, he would be able to immediately come into contact with the surrounding spatial law as long as he was on the ground.
 

Although the Dao Ridge was big, many cultivators had entered it to seek the Dao Validation opportunity ever since ancient times. Many experts’ remnant Dao runes could be found there. Half a year had passed, yet Di Jiu could not find a single Dao meridian even though he wanted to.
 

In half a year, apart from fully perfecting his nomological escape technique, Di Jiu’s nomological changes had helped him disguise himself. Even though he was unable to change his entire body shape, he could still make slight changes. What satisfied Di Jiu the most was that he could change his disguise and aura.
 

He was satisfied that he could change his disguise and aura, as well as make some slight changes to his body. Such a disguise technique was far more powerful than any Dharma treasure or elixir pill used for disguising purposes.
 

The more he understood this technique, the more he found it profound. This made Di Jiu suspect that if he wanted to transform into something ordinary, his cultivation level would have to reach at least the second step.
 

This was not something that could be solved with deduction over time. He had to improve his Nomological Dao, which also meant that his cultivation level had to reach a higher level.
 

As he thought about it, he stopped. There was no point in continuing to deduce the nomological escape technique and nomological changes. He would rather search for a place to enter seclusion for some time and see whether he could attain the Dao Birth. If he could not, he would just work hard to raise his Alchemy Dao level.
 

Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force landed in the Ninth World, where there were 100,000 Divine Essence Pills. If he could be enlightened until the Dao Birth, these Divine Essence Pills would be sufficient for him to even cultivate to the late stage.
 

What amazed Di Jiu was that after his Spiritual Force landed in the Ninth World, he actually discovered an extremely beautiful bird inside.
 

This bird had a pair of multi-colored wings, a lightning pattern on its head, and a sharp and thick beak. At the moment, it kept swallowing his Divine Essence Pills.
 

It was outstanding and it had seven toes on each of its claws. It was a seven-toed bird! This was the first time that Di Jiu had seen one.
 

He immediately landed in his Ninth World and lifted his hands to grab this bird. He did not know since when he’d had a bird in his Ninth World. This was simply ridiculous.
 

Upon seeing Di Jiu enter, the bird immediately flew toward him. Just as he was about to send a fist move out, he sensed that this bird did not have any intention of attacking. Instead, it was extremely affectionate.
 

Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force once again scanned his Ninth World before he understood. This was the worm egg of the Rainbow-Winged Lightning Worm that he had thrown into his Ninth World. He had not expected the worm egg to hatch into a bird. Was this a bird or a worm?
 

As Di Jiu looked at this extremely affectionate bird, he knew that he could let the bird recognize him as its master. However, he frowned slightly, as he had not intended to hatch this worm egg.
 

It looked like the worm egg had been wrapped by the Chaos aura in the Ninth World. Since it had been thrown by him into a pile of Divine Essence Pills, it had naturally hatched successfully.
 

The reason that Di Jiu did not want to let this bird acknowledge him as its owner was not because he did not like this bird or because its level was insufficient.
 

Since the bird had hatched because of the Chaos aura and Divine Essence Pills, it definitely had a very high level compared to the Rainbow-Winged Lightning Worms of the same class. However, he was uncomfortable deep down, as this bird had hatched from a worm egg of a Rainbow-Winged Lightning Worm that he had killed.
 

He had killed the Rainbow-Winged Lightning Worm and hatched its worm egg into his pet. Di Jiu could not get over that.
 

Despite how beautiful the bird was, Di Jiu hesitated slightly before he took the bird out of his Ninth World. He then said,
Go. We are not meant to be.

 

The bird clearly did not understand what Di Jiu had said. Once it came out, it started shouting non-stop before it bit Di Jiu’s shirt with its beak.
 

Di Jiu understood what the bird meant. It wanted him to follow it. However, Di Jiu did not move. When the bird left, he changed direction.
 

This bird was considered the first creature ever since the Ninth World had been created, so Di Jiu did not want to kill it.
 

When the bird realized that Di Jiu was not following it, it flew back. It used its beak to hold onto Di Jiu’s clothes and headed in the direction it had been flying just now.
 

Could it be some good stuff? This time, Di Jiu did not refuse. Maybe, this bird was grateful to him for hatching it in his Ninth World and wanted to take him to find some good stuff.
 

No matter how fast the bird flew, Di Jiu caught up with his Spiritual Force escape technique. In just half an hour, the bird suddenly landed under a rock mountain and started shouting non-stop. As it shouted, it turned its head behind to look at Di Jiu.
 

Di Jiu observed that rock mountain over and over, but there was nothing wrong with it. Di Jiu’s Array Dao level was not low. Although he was not on par with well-known Array Dao experts, he could still see through an ordinary Invisibility Array. There were no traces of an array or any invisible natural restrictions on this rock mountain.
 

Upon seeing the rainbow bird shouting non-stop, Di Jiu opened his Dao eye.
 

Under his Dao eye, a vague ray of light flashed past. Then, an eerie aura rushed forth and Di Jiu felt pain in his Dao eye. He hurriedly shut his eyes.
 

After one hour, Di Jiu once again opened his Dao eye. This time, he saw it even more clearly. There was indeed an array door hidden in a corner of this rock mountain. The aura under the array door kept churning but it carried threatening Yin Qi. This was definitely not a good place. When Di Jiu tried to withdraw his Dao eye and get away from this place, the Reincarnation Wooden Bridge in his Spiritual Sea shook all of a sudden.
 

Ever since the Reincarnation Wooden Bridge had been put away by Di Jiu, it had made no movements whatsoever. Unfortunately, he had not had the time to analyze this Reincarnation Wooden Bridge. He had not expected it to shake now.
