Chapter 319: Sunset in the Immortal World

Chapter 319: Sunset in the Immortal World

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A man wearing ragged clothes stumbled to the Thearch Robe Sea. Behind him was a woman wearing torn clothes.

The man was covered in blood, so it was obvious that he was running for his life. That woman was holding a long sword and she appeared to be chasing and trying to kill the man.

“Save me, Daoist!” cried the man as he finally saw the person standing still by the Thearch Robe Sea. He immediately understood that the figure was probably someone who had passed away a long time ago. The person in question was covered in dust and appeared to have experienced the vicissitudes of life.

Bam! The man fell onto the ground because he was suddenly blocked by an invisible force.

Di Jiu woke up almost at the same moment that someone invaded his territory. He had a sudden realization when he felt the surging Quintessential Essence Energy in his body. His domain could expand according to his own preferences.

He had attained the Domain Realm in 100 years.

Only after he had truly attained the Domain Realm was he able to understand that all the True Dominion and Domain Realm experts were unreal.

There were only complete and incomplete Domain Realms. There was no such thing as first stage or ninth stage.

It had taken him a hundred years to enter and attain the Domain Realm. In the meantime, he had understood the Foundation Order in the Five Continent Dao Pagoda. His saber intent, fist intent, and even the intent of his Beginning Thunder Engraving and Jumbo Footprint had fused together. These intents connected with his Starry Sky Meridian and formed a domain like the galaxy.

Due to the sanguinary and desolation of the Immortal World, he wanted to use his own way of killing to create a truly beautiful Immortal World. This allowed him to bring his state of mind and surroundings into his cultivation and create a galaxy domain realm of his own.

When Di Jiu opened his eyes, he finally saw people around him.

“Do you still want to escape?” The woman mocked the man as she walked up to him.

“Daoist, I do not know you. Everyone is struggling in the Immortal World. Why do you want to kill me?” said the man who had bumped into Di Jiu’s Domain Realm. He did not have the time to find out what he had collided with, let alone realize that this was a person with such a powerful Domain Realm.

He knew about the Domain Realm because he was at the ninth-stage Domain Realm. However, he had never known anyone that could knock him down with the Domain Realm.

The woman laughed shrilly. “Do you think I want your Blood Essence? If I don’t take it, I will not be able to advance and I will fall like the Sunset Immortal World. I’m not the only person doing this in the Immortal World. You are just unlucky that you encountered me. You are no match for me. I will bury your body if you don’t resist… You are alive?”

The woman finally saw Di Jiu, who had opened his eyes, so her question was directed at him.

The male cultivator also looked at Di Jiu in horror, as he had not felt Di Jiu’s aura at all earlier. In addition, Di Jiu had been covered in dust and blended into the surroundings. Hence, the man had thought that Di Jiu had passed away a long time ago.

“Yes, I am alive. Unlike some people who appear alive but are actually dead.” Di Jiu jerked. After he used a dusting spell, all the dust around him disappeared.

At the moment, he was totally clean, as though he had been cleansed by the purest water.

The Heavenly Aqua Saber behind him vibrated weakly and flew into the air by itself. Strong saber intent came together as the saber made a ringing sound.

Di Jiu was delighted. He had not expected that the Heavenly Aqua Saber would become a supreme-grade spirit weapon after he attained the Domain Realm. However, it was time for the saber to be upgraded, as it had been on his back for more than 100 years.

Indeed, the saber became four feet and one inch long, making Di Jiu feel a little disappointed. He was worried that the saber would turn into a dagger that was only one-foot long.

“Is this a Dharma treasure that can be upgraded?” That woman’s eyes shone with excitement as she set her eyes on the Heavenly Aqua Saber floating around Di Jiu.

“Go die…” The woman’s eyes were red with jealousy as she saw Di Jiu’s saber weapon. The long sword in her hand transformed into a white flare that surged towards Di Jiu.

The woman felt the space around her freeze, even though she was more than ten feet away from Di Jiu.

The woman’s eyes were filled with horror and disbelief. How could a Domain Realm cultivator be so scary? She was sure that Di Jiu was at most a Domain Realm cultivator because he did not have an Immortal Essence Aura.

She had once seen a Perfected Immortal expert, but that expert had been incomparable to the person before her.

The Heavenly Aqua Saber transformed into a blue beam and flashed across. The woman watched the saber as it dashed towards her. She could not escape, so she was slain by it.

The woman was killed before she could even attack Di Jiu.

“Senior…” The male cultivator looked at Di Jiu in astonishment. He had been wandering in the Immortal World for a few hundred years and met real Perfected Immortal experts. Hence, he knew that Di Jiu was not a real immortal. How could a cultivator who was not even a Perfected Immortal expert kill that woman in one shot? He was so strong…

At least there were no other experts like him.

“I’m Di Jiu. Could you tell me more about the Immortal World?” Di Jiu said with a slower pace as he put away the ring.

The male cultivator cupped his fists and said, “I am Bei Chutai and I’ve been here for nearly 300 years.”

Just the mention of these 300 years made Bei Chutai sorrowful. Thus, he sighed before he added, “The Immortal World was really desolate even when I first arrived. In addition, the immortal Spirit Qi here was messed up, so it was barely sufficient for me to maintain my cultivation. I finally met some people after wandering alone for more than 100 years. I found a gigantic castle occupied by many cultivators. I went up to the castle and realized that the immortal Spirit Qi there was rich and suitable for cultivation. However, I did not qualify to enter. One needed at least one billion high-grade Spirit Stones or one thousand immortal crystals to enter the castle.”

“You did not enter the castle and you do not know why the Immortal World is like this?” Di Jiu asked.

Bei Chutai nodded. “Yes, I was not qualified to enter the castle. However, I have encountered some immortals who were wandering around like me…”

Bei Chutai laughed self-derisively. “I have been in the Immortal World for a few hundred years, yet I was not able to transform my Quintessential Essence into Immortal Essence. I dare not call myself an immortal. What I heard from others is that, after the mass killing, the Immortal World was filled with viciousness. There was no light from providence, because it had been abandoned by God. Those competent immortals got together and created a massive array to gather the light from providence. Although the array could not change the situation here, it was able to focus the light from providence and allow the immortals to cultivate.”

“Are all the places in the Immortal World like this?” Di Jiu knew that he did not qualify to go into the castle. He only asked this question because he did not have one billion Spirit Stones. Even if he had a billion Spirit Stones, he would dare not go there.

Bei Chutai shook his head. “No, I occasionally heard that the reason there were such places in the Immortal World is because of the sunset moment. After the sunset moment, the immortals who survived left the place and focused all the light from providence in a single place. That place was the New Immortal Protectorate. The place we are at now is called the Sunset Immortal Protectorate.”

“Where is the New Immortal Protectorate?” Di Jiu asked hurriedly.

Bei Chutai shook his head once again. “I don’t know either. Rumor has it that it is also in the Immortal World, but it has been separated. I have been to countless places and met numerous people, but nobody knew where it is. I heard that any cultivator from the Sunset Immortal Protectorate would be slain directly if they got a million Li away from the New Immortal Protectorate.”

“Why did the female cultivator want to kill you?”

“She wanted to use my Blood Essence for cultivation.” Bei Chutai sounded depressed.

“Was she a demon cultivator?” Di Jiu asked.

Bei Chutai sighed. “No, she was not. In fact, there are many cultivators like her. These people wandered in the Immortal World and traveled alone like me. The place we are in has messy immortal Spirit Qi, so we cannot cultivate without the Blood Essence of cultivators. The reason that female cultivator was so powerful is because she had killed many cultivators.”

“Why didn’t you do the same?” Di Jiu did not feel any murderous intent coming from Bei Chutai.

Bei Chutai’s eyes were full of sorrow. “Everyone is wandering in the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. Engulfing other Daoists is as good as drinking poison to quench one’s thirst. Even if things were different, I would not go against my moral values. I’m wandering in the Immortal World. If I was fortunate enough to find shelter here, I would live in dishonor. Otherwise, I would just continue wandering like the others.”

“There are many people like me, who do not wish to cultivate using the Blood Essence of others. Senior Di, I can tell that you have not killed others to take their Blood Essence. If you don’t mind, I would gladly travel around with you.”

Di Jiu looked at the setting sun as sorrow filled his heart. Even the Immortal World was a merciless place.

Then, he said after a while, “Daoist Bei, I plan to build a safe castle like the one you described. However, I just came to the Immortal World, so I need more time to conduct research before I can create an array to gather light from providence…”

“Senior, I am willing to follow you.” Bei Chutai’s eyes glimmered with hope.

Di Jiu shook his head. “No, I was hoping that we could work separately. If we find a suitable place one day, let’s wait here or leave a message for each other.”

Without the light from providence, the communication pearl was practically useless in the Immortal World, despite the laws that existed. Therefore, Di Jiu and Bei Chutai agreed to meet at the same place again. As far as the array was concerned, Di Jiu was not competent enough at the moment to create it. However, he believed that he could create it one day because he had the Book of the World.

Bu Chutai exclaimed, “Okay, Senior! I will definitely find shelter for us.”

“Don’t call me Senior. We are not the only like-minded Daoists in this place. We are merely taking the first step. One day, countless like-minded Daoists will join us.” Di Jiu patted Bei Chutai’s shoulder.
