Chapter 703: The Worm Protectorate
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Di Jiu had never thought that he would enter this spatial rift for thousands of years. He could endure the first hundreds of years, but after hundreds of years, he started to try to leave the endless spatial rift.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he would either suffer serious injuries from the edge of the spatial rift compression or he would be blasted back into the spatial rift.
The first millennium in the spatial rift was his most torturing millennium. Di Jiu completely gave up after thousands of years. Given his current strength, he could not escape from that place. Thus, he relied on the convection in the spatial rift to drag him deep and simply set his heart on cultivating.
Since he could not break free, he would rather work hard to improve. Perhaps when he reached the Primordial Chaos Realm, he could leave this place.
In the beginning, Di Jiu entered seclusion to condense his Principal Spirit, temper his Spiritual Force, and strengthen his meridians.
As time passed, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force, which was constantly compressed, formed a layer of Spiritual Force barrier while being tempered by the Spiritual Force Training Art.
Di Jiu had a pile of high-grade divine crystals all the time and even took out the Divine Spirit Qi of the supreme-grade divine spirit meridians in the Ninth World, forming a large cocoon of the Divine Spirit Qi around him.
With enough help from the Divine Spirit Qi, Di Jiu’s cultivation level finally started slowly rising.
…
All of a sudden, Di Jiu woke up from his deep seclusion because the void compression around him had suddenly disappeared.
At that moment, Di Jiu relaxed completely. He felt just like an ordinary person who had walked with kilograms of iron tied to his feet for a long time and had the iron removed.
Boom! The violent seawater exploded and Di Jiu could sense his Spiritual Force and Divine Essence get completely restrained. However, his Spiritual Force, which was tempered by the void compression in the spatial rift, had been extremely tough. After just a few seconds, his Spiritual Force broke through this restraint and spread out.
The seawater filled the surroundings as far as the eye could see, and he was in the middle of the seawater.
This was the Void Ocean? It was connected to that spatial rift?
Di Jiu immediately rushed out of the seawater, as there was a high-grade flying boat below his feet.
While standing on the flying boat, Di Jiu scanned the place with his Spiritual Force. He had understood that this was not the Void Ocean but a new place.
He was not very far from the seashore. After driving the flying boat, Di Jiu landed on the seashore in just two hours.
The restraint on his Spiritual Force was completely removed. To his surprise, he realized that his Spiritual Force had improved a lot compared to before he’d entered the spatial rift.
Thanks to his Nomological Qi Circulation, his smooth and unobstructed Divine Essence carried a powerful sincere voice and his Starry Sky meridian was as firm and substantial as a starry sky.
His cultivation level finally transcended the peak Primordial Dao to the perfected Primordial Dao. Apart from that, his current foundation was firm, substantial, and not empty by any means.
Di Jiu secretly thought that although he had spent thousands of years in the spatial rift, he had gained some things. If he had not been in the spatial rift, it would have been hard for him to solidify his foundation in thousands of years in seclusion.
Right now, he could reach the Primordial Chaos Realm as long as an opportunity presented itself. He still had over ten drops of 100-million-year-old Divine Quintessence that were resources used to reach the Primordial Chaos Realm.
After he took a long breath, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force once again scanned the place. He wanted to know where he was now.
Based on the Divine Spirit Qi there, this place was definitely not an Immortal World. It should be a Dao World or another realm of a similar level as the Dao World. What puzzled him was that this place was overgrown and filled with bare soil or Gobi deserts everywhere.
He executed his Spiritual Force escape technique and very soon got away from this coast.
After one hour, Di Jiu stopped. He could sense a familiar smell of blood in his Spiritual Force that he should have experienced somewhere else.
Before waiting for Di Jiu to think where he had encountered this smell, endless worms flew past the edge of his Spiritual Sea.
Di Jiu’s heart sank and his Spiritual Force extended even further.
As expected, Di Jiu saw more worms. These worms were large and small, came in different shapes, and some even made people’s scalps go numb. Someone with trypophobia would definitely suffer from intensive maladjustment.
Di Jiu knew exactly where he was. Unless he was wrong, he should be in the Worm Protectorate. When he had just ascended to the Dao World, he had guarded the Wormhole for a while and even entered the Wormhole, where the smell of blood also came from.
The Worm Protectorate was boundless. By using his Spiritual Force, Di Jiu even found some precious blacksmithing materials. However, when he saw the packed worms above them, he had no interest in collecting them.
He was different now. He had a lot of high-level blacksmithing materials. Thanks to the rings of Fan Yuan and the Kun Peng Clan’s cultivator, not only had he obtained a large amount of divine spirit herbs, but he had also obtained countless precious blacksmithing materials.
Even though the blacksmithing materials in the Worm Protectorate were precious, they sparked no interest in Di Jiu.
As for how he would get out of the Worm Protectorate and return to the Dao World, Di Jiu was not worried. He knew that the worms wanted to go there all the time and that the Wormhole formed a passageway from the Worm Protectorate to the Dao World.
Di Jiu cautiously hid and started to search for the Wormhole in the Worm Protectorate.
He did not dare reveal himself. Once he did, even though he could now fight against the Dao Integration experts, he would be drowned by the endless worms of the Worm Protectorate.
Even though he could still move here, once he was discovered, the endless worms would leave him nowhere to go based on his aura. In other words, no matter where he went, all kinds of worms would flock over.
It was not difficult to find the Wormhole in the Worm Protectorate, so Di Jiu only found a regular pattern after observing for three months.
Half-way through every month, a large number of worms swarmed in one direction. Di Jiu followed these worms secretly in this direction. After walking for half a month, he was shocked by the sight he faced.
A huge whirlpool funnel had appeared before him, and endless worms swarmed into the funnel. Although Di Jiu did not know why these worms rushed in there, he could guess that there had to be a wormhole under this funnel.
After only observing for half an hour, Di Jiu followed the worms into the funnel without hesitation.
All kinds of worms were present in that whirlpool funnel. Since Di Jiu was the only human entering, this immediately alarmed the worms, which approached Di Jiu threateningly. Some worms that had not rushed into the whirlpool funnel also rushed toward it upon seeing Di Jiu.
Di Jiu knew very well that if he fought hand-to-hand, the worms would increase over time even if he killed them for 100 years. The only thing he could do at the moment was rush into the Wormhole.
The funnel whirlpool was not long, so it took Di Jiu only an instant to step on the ground. The ground underneath him was a large square nearly hundreds of thousands of feet in perimeter. Almost all kinds of worms were on the square. At the edge of this square was a black cave entrance. Large numbers of worms waited at that entrance, seemingly looking for a suitable time to rush into it.
Before those endless worms approached, Di Jiu plunged into the black cave entrance. The worms that were still waiting rushed to the hole one after another because of Di Jiu’s drive.
Even some worms that were not prepared to enter the cave entrance also rushed into it because Di Jiu had appeared.
