Chapter 876: You Should Not Attain Dao Integration Here

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Di Jiu looked at the far end of the broad path leading out of the Dao Abyss Square. He felt that perhaps he could be like the others, obtain a cave abode here, and successfully attain Dao Integration. It was only then that he could have the authority to speak his opinion in this place.

Dao Lord Po Xu was very experienced in life, so he knew what Di Jiu was thinking the moment he saw his gaze and expression. He advised him with a sigh, “Brother Di, even if you rented a cave abode here, you would not be able to attain Dao Integration. I’m saying this despite not knowing which cultivation technique you are practicing. Perhaps, it would be more accurate to say that attaining Dao Integration would make no difference in your case. Thus, such a feat would be meaningless.”

Di Jiu frowned and asked dubiously, “What do you mean, Daoist Po Xu?”

Po Xu looked at Di Jiu and replied solemnly, “Brother Di, you must have yet to achieve Dao Integration, yet you can already hold your own against me, a perfected Dao Integration cultivator. I have never seen an apex expert like you before.”

Chu Manhe, who was standing behind Di Jiu, gaped in shock upon learning that Di Jiu had yet to achieve Dao Integration. She had not had the chance to speak and she was stunned when she heard Di Jiu call Dao Lord Po Xu by his name. He was someone she had never seen before but had still heard of. However, the astonishment she felt was not as great as her astonishment when she learned that Di Jiu had yet to attain Dao Integration.

She would not have dared to advise Di Jiu to come here if she had known that Di Jiu had yet to achieve Dao Integration.

“Brother Di, you should know that your Dao differs greatly from the average Dao. It would have been okay for you to attain Dao Integration here if the Dao Abyss had just appeared. As it is, the Dao Abyss appeared a long time ago and the Creation Aura here has long since mostly diminished. It would not be beneficial if you chose to attain Dao Integration here. That’s why I said that it would make no difference whether you achieved Dao Integration or not,” Dao Lord Po Xu explained in one breath.

Di Jiu understood what Dao Lord Po Xu was trying to say and knew that the man was right. He would not be able to attain the Dao he yearned for if he attempted to attain Dao Integration here.

“Po Xu, I have an idea. Tell me what you think about it.” Di Jiu took a deep breath and decided to push the issue of attaining Dao Integration aside. “I will save Lightning and then forcibly save you as well. I already have a place in mind where I can attain the Dao Integration Realm.”

In fact, he had already decided a long time ago to attain Dao Integration in the Chaos Realm, as Ling Xiaoshuang had suggested.

Di Jiu felt that Ling Xiaoshuang’s suggestion might be a little erroneous, for the Chaos Realm had been open for a very long time. Perhaps the Chaos Realm might be inferior to the Dao Abyss, which would make him heading down to the Chaos Realm to attain Dao Integration a laughable act. Nonetheless, he had nowhere else to go other than the Chaos Realm.

Dao Lord Po Xu hastily shook his head. “Ignore these thoughts. I’m certain that you would not be able to leave this place even if you successfully saved us. The guy who captured Lightning is called Yu Hao and is also known as Icy Wind. Even when the ancient Dao Lord was still here, Dao Lord Icy Wind was quite well-known. He specializes in ice-element nomological supernormal abilities, and his escape supernormal ability is a top-notch wind-element nomological supernormal ability. Almost no one can catch him when he is executing his escape supernormal ability. That is also why he is still living in such a carefree manner despite provoking so many people in the past.”

Chu Manhe subconsciously looked at Di Jiu when Dao Lord Po Xu mentioned that Yu Hao was good at running away. She did not think that anyone else could be faster than Di Jiu.

Di Jiu felt very helpless, as he knew that Dao Lord Po Xu was right. However, what could he do if he could not use force? Attempt to negotiate? That was a laughable thought.

Dao Lord Po Xu said, “A trade meeting will be happening soon, and everyone will start trading among themselves. I suspect that Icy Wind will bring Lightning to the trade meeting. Lightning will certainly not recognize him as its owner, but there is a powerful beast tamer here. Perhaps, he could make Lightning change owner.”

Di Jiu momentarily looked murderous upon hearing that very last statement. Then, he sighed. “I might be considered rich, but my wealth would be no match for the old things here. They are truly filthy rich. I’m someone who only picked up from the universe things that these people did not want.”

Even Po Xu had to admit that Di Jiu was right. He owned so many more quality items than Di Jiu himself. Over a long time, most of the treasures in this universe had been taken by other people. One would be at a disadvantage if they were born later.

Since Dao Lord Po Xu had no better suggestions, Di Jiu said, “I shall wait until the trade meeting starts then. I happen to want to trade some items as well.”

He intended to rent a cave abode and wait until the trade meeting started. If he failed to obtain the Soul-Gathering Immortal Lotus by trading, then he would use force and his plan would commence.

“What do you need?” Dao Lord Po Xu asked curiously.

Di Jiu gestured at Chu Manhe, who was standing beside him. “Two Soul-Gathering Immortal Lotuses. Daoist Chu here needs one, and I have a friend who needs one as well.”

“How did you know that the Soul-Gathering Immortal Lotus can be found here?” inquired Dao Lord Po Xu dubiously as he stared at Di Jiu.

Chu Manhe hastily replied, “Greetings, Senior Po Xu. I found out through hearsay...”

Based on Chu Manhe’s tone, Po Xu knew that she must have heard of him. “Not bad. You must have lived for quite a long time since you have heard of me before. The Soul-Gathering Immortal Lotus is actually nothing special. If it can be found here, then you will definitely be able to obtain it, Brother Di.”

Chu Manhe thanked Po Xu and said, “Senior Po Xu, I know you because a very good friend of mine once saw your Primeval Void-Breaking Finger. He was truly talented, so he borrowed your finger move to create his own.”

“Your friend stole my Primeval Void-Breaking Finger Art? Is your friend Ning Cheng?” Po Xu’s voice turned frosty.

Chu Manhe looked at Dao Lord Po Xu in surprise and replied, “Indeed. However, he did not care much for the Primeval Void-Breaking Finger Art, as his own cultivation technique was much more powerful. As for the Primeval Void-Breaking Finger Art, I heard that a man called Min Husheng took it.”

Chu Manhe’s tone lost its politeness when she heard Dao Lord Po Xu speak in a relatively rude tone.

“What kind of cultivation technique can compare to my Primeval Void-Breaking Finger Art? Its origin is extraordinary, and it is something unfit for other people to use.” Dao Lord Po Xu was enraged upon hearing Chu Manhe claim that his Primeval Void-Breaking Finger was inferior to Ning Cheng’s cultivation technique.

Chu Manhe mocked him. “Dao Lord Strength, Gai Ye, lost to my friend once, so there is no need to compare their cultivation techniques.”

Dao Lord Po Xu had heard of Ning Cheng before but he’d only known that the latter was very powerful. He had not known that even Gai Ye had lost to Ning Cheng. To his knowledge, Ning Cheng had participated in the second Creation War, during which Ning Cheng’s cultivation partner had died. Dao Lord Po Xu frowned upon receiving this new piece of information. If Gai Ye was not Ning Cheng’s match, then Ning Cheng might truly not care much for his Primeval Void-Breaking Finger Art.

“What about my Primeval Void-Breaking Tablet?” Dao Lord Po Xu asked.

Chu Manhe drawled, “My friend does not care for your tablet either. I heard that Gai Ye took it away. Also, your Primeval Void-Breaking Finger Art was indeed stolen by Min Husheng, but the final owner is actually Gai Ye.”

Dao Lord Po Xu fell silent upon hearing that. He would not be Gai Ye’s match even if Di Jiu helped him. Finding Ning Cheng with Di Jiu would be a suicide mission if Ning Cheng had defeated Gai Ye before.

A long moment passed before Dao Lord Po Xu sighed and said, “Brother Di, do you know who possesses the Soul-Gathering Immortal Lotus? If you do, I would suggest that you find him directly to have a private trade and then leave this place.”

Dao Lord Po Xu deflated upon hearing Gai Ye’s name.

“I heard that that man was called Yi Ji,” Di Jiu answered. He could not console Dao Lord Po Xu, for he was unable to beat Yi Ji. That was not a feat that could be accomplished simply through hard work.

“What?” Dao Lord Po Xu stared at Di Jiu with wide eyes.
