    “I’ve heard that it can be refined...” said Little Tree when it saw Di Jiu’s unfriendly expression. It stopped talking for a bit before it said weakly, “You can also use Blood Essence...”


    Di Jiu perked up. That was a good idea. He sprayed a jet of Blood Essence onto the gray stone without hesitation. However, the stone did not react, even though they waited for a long time.


    Di Jiu picked up the stone disappointedly. As his cultivation level increased, he believed that hanging this stone around his neck would not be beneficial.


    Whenever he used his Spiritual Force toe into contact with the stone, he could sense a colossal aura within the stone. This aura seemed to be a product of a fusion between a form of Origin and a type of Law. If he met any experts in the future and they scanned him with their Spiritual Force, all his secrets would be exposed.


    He did not know how much an object that could help people gain insight on the Array Dao was worth. Even though he had not truly been a part of the Cultivation World, he was aware that this stone was a timebomb.


    The Blood Essence did not react. This time, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force wanted to forcefully enter the gray stone. In the past, his Spiritual Force and the gray stone had onlymunicated when he reached a dead end with the Array Dao. This was the first time his Spiritual Force wanted to forcefullymunicate with whatever was inside the gray stone.


    Boom! When Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force permeated the stone a little, an intimidating aura boomed inside his Spiritual Sea. This felt like a regrouping of the Law of Heaven and Earth. Di Jiu had unknowinglye into contact with a frightening Law of the Universe. When he opened his mouth, a jet of bloody mist sprayed out.


    A wave of excruciating pain filled Di Jiu’s brain as he lost his sight. His only thought at the moment was that this was over for him.


    The gray stone in his hand transformed into a gray re that entered the spot between his eyebrows.


    “Big Brother!” Little Tree climbed back up in rm after being blown away by that majestic aura and rushed over speedily.


    If Di Jiu died, then it would die as well.


    Almost as soon as the stone entered Di Jiu, the beautiful woman inside the jade coffin started moving her body. Spirit Qi began to slowly gather around the coffin as the woman absorbed it.


    “Are you alright, Big Brother?” Little Tree let out a sigh of relief when it saw Di Jiu open his eyes.


    Where had the stone gone? Di Jiu looked down at his empty hands anxiously. That stone was too important to him. If anything happened to it, then he would be an average cultivator.


    An average cultivator might not be a level-four Array Great-Master in 30 years, let alone in three.


    “I am alright...” Just as Di Jiu said this, he felt something appear in his Spiritual Sea.


    A stone with a ray of golden lightingy quietly within his Spiritual Sea. Di Jiu let out a breath of relief. He did not know how the golden stone had entered his Spiritual Sea, but it was amazing that it was still there.


    Di Jiu flooded with relief. If the stone was hidden within his Spiritual Sea, no matter how powerful one was, they would not be able to sense it unless they split his Spiritual Sea open.


    “We can leave now.” Di Jiu stood up.


    “How do we leave?” asked the Tiny Treant in a daze. The fact that Di Jiu was alright did not mean that they could leave.


    “Just follow me.” During the past three years, Di Jiu had been studying the most fundamental array formation knowledge, as well as the 34 pirs inside this hall.


    ording to his understanding, the 34 pirs inside and the two pirs outside formed a Big Dipper Array. Although this was not an array he could set up or fully research, Di Jiu believed that he did not need to. He simply needed to walk out of this hall.


    The hall formed a Big Dipper Array, which was made of the engravings of confinement arrays, killing arrays and so on.


    Di Jiu believed that he needed to decode the killing array engravings in order to open the hall’s door. It was not necessary to fully understand the array to find the section where the killing array engravings were.


    His inability to set up the array did not mean that he could not crack it either.


    Di Jiu started going around the hall once again. He stopped six dayster, when he was certain that he was standing where the Big Dipper Pce’s killing array engravings were.


    Di Jiu took out his kitchen knife. When it sensed his condensing aura, Little Tree shouted hurriedly, “It would be better if I hid back inside the ring, Big Brother!”


    It clearly still remembered what had happened three years ago. At the time, Di Jiu had kicked Di Jue and sent him flying until he’d mmed against the stone wall of the Big Dipper Pce. Di Jue had been killed and cut into fragments by his violent killing intent.


    Even though it knew that it would die with Di Jiu, Little Tree did not wish to die so tragically.


    However, the Tiny Treant did not need to say anything. Di Jiu had never had any intention of leaving it outside. If anything unexpected or serious happened after the killing array was destroyed, leaving the Tiny Treant outside would only cause him more trouble.


    When he put Little Tree away, Di Jiu’s aura started to increase rapidly. The kitchen knife transformed into a saber re and a saber strike seemed to form in an instant...


    As soon as the violent saber intent condensed, a crisp frightened voice shouted, “Don’t!”


    Di Jiu felt goosebumps when he saw the woman inside the jade coffin sit up. He immediately stopped moving his saber in rm.


    He could perhaps have stopped his saber strike if he had not unsheathed his knife and performed the Wind-Rustling Move. However, once the Wind-Rustling Move was made, there was no going back. Given his current strength, Di Jiu was unable to control this saber move as he pleased.


    Boom! The kitchen knife mmed against the stone pir.


    Di Jiu’s original n had been to use a saber move to destroy the killing array engravings on the pir and st open the hall’s doors.


    However, after he struck out with his saber, Di Jiu sensed that something was amiss. He must have done something wrong. His body started to lose control and the space around him began to revolve violently. Despite the fact that he was at the seventh-stage Qi Refinement realm, he was thrown off by this revolution, which caused him to m against the walls of the hall repeatedly.


    Waves of bone-shattering sounds were heard as blood sttered everywhere. Di Jiu could only rely on his willpower to retain part of his consciousness.


    Meanwhile, the jade coffin in the center of the hall was thrown off and the woman was flung out of the coffin and mmed against the walls repeatedly.


    An extremely low-pitched sound exploded from a Defense Array in the deep recesses of the Fairy. Then, several res broke through the Defense Array, tearing a terrifyingly massive ck hole in the space outside the array.


    The green, which had been Earth’s neighbor for many years, broke through its original bindings and entered the massive ck hole.


    The ck hole recovered slowly after the Fairy disappeared into it.


    The Sr System returned to its original state and the Fairy, which had appeared suddenly, disappeared just as suddenly.


    ...


    Everyone on the Fairy felt the start to vibrate violently, as if it was about to disintegrate at any moment.


    The only thing anyone could do was find a tree or some other fixed object to hug tightly.


    After an unknown period of time, the woman who had been flung out of the jade coffin finally grabbed hold of a stone pir and took a tablet out of a ring.


    As she made some hand seals, the violent revolution of the hall finally started to slow down gradually until it eventually stoppedpletely.


    The beautiful woman walked up to Di Jiu angrily. Di Jiu, who had been unconscious for a long time, was bleeding from the corner of his mouth.


    Even though she was not using a Spiritual Force, the woman could see that Di Jiu’s bones were fragmented and his meridians were ruptured and scattered in all directions.


    At first, she had wanted to p and pulverize Di Jiu, yet when she saw his state, she sighed and murmured, “I suppose I woke up earlier because of you. I will wait for a reasonable amount of time before I throw you on a and leave you to defend yourself... Hey, why are the people from the test trial still here?”


    As she came back to her senses, the woman’s Spiritual Force swept around. The people who had travelled to this in search of the Refinement Tablet and conquered the had been dead for a long time. The nobodies who participated in the test trial belonged to a different group of people with inferior cultivation levels.


    This was not right. A stronger group of nobodies had participated in the test trial before this group. The woman’s Spiritual Force swept across the cave abodes belonging to the cultivators who had yet to reach the Foundation Establishment. What was going on? How many years had she been asleep for?


    The woman quickly pushed these thoughts aside with a frown. Then, she wiped off the bloodstains at the edge of her mouth, walked over to the jade coffin and lifted her hand to touch it. The Lan Family had sacrificed too much for this. Back in the day, this had belonged to her mother. However, her mother had met her doom there.


    That day, Lan Ru would reim this on her mother’s behalf. The Big Dipper would have nothing to do with any outsiders from now on.
