Chapter 337: Duo Nirvana

That was the Golden Dao Law Di Jiu had possessed at the start, which had escaped because Di Jiu had taken the Universe Membrane fragment.

Di Jiu had absolutely no idea that the Golden Dao Law had escaped at the moment. However, even if he had known, he would have continued using the Universe Membrane fragment to attain nirvana.

Although it was true that the Golden Dao Law helped Di Jiu’s cultivation, the Dao Law remained in his consciousness without the intention of submitting itself to him. The two parties would cooperate if they matched well and split if they did not fit well. There was no need to cling onto each other.

The Universe Membrane fragment helped Di Jiu’s physical body undergo nirvana. Di Jiu’s body was destroyed by the Heavenly Fire Spirit before it recovered. Then, it was destroyed again and it recovered once more...

However, Di Jiu’s cultivation experience was too low and the Heavenly Fire Spirit was too powerful. Hence, Di Jiu’s physical body could not go through nirvana in time and broke down gradually despite the help of the Dao Fire and the Universe Membrane fragment.

The red Heavenly Fire Spirit covered Di Jiu’s body as the Dao Fire weakened gradually. Di Jiu felt even more desperate.

Unless someone dragged him out of the Heavenly Fire Spirit, he would be burned to ashes by the Heavenly Fire Spirit before his physical body could attain nirvana.

Mo Yuxuan kept looking at Di Jiu. She took a few steps forward subconsciously before she saw him being wrapped by the Heavenly Fire Spirit. She bore in mind what Di Jiu had told her: she should not come close as long as she could see him.

However, when Di Jiu’s body was torn apart slowly by the Heavenly Fire Spirit and started to become faintly discernible, as if it was about to melt, sorrow surged up in Mo Yuxuan’s heart.

She dashed madly towards the horrifying flames of the Heavenly Fire Spirit, as if she had suddenly recalled something.

If Di Jiu had been able to speak at the moment, he would definitely have stopped Mo Yuxuan from rushing towards him. Mo Yuxuan’s cultivation experience was low, so her attempt to save Di Jiu was like throwing an egg against a rock— she was attempting the impossible.

Bam! The Heavenly Fire Spirit engulfed Mo Yuxuan the moment she got near it.

She was swallowed by the intimidating flame in just a split second.

Mo Yuxuan immediately came back to her senses, grabbed Di Jiu and threw him outside fervently. Di Jiu, who also became clear-headed, used his Spiritual Force to pull Mo Yuxuan out of the Heavenly Fire Spirit.

When the Heavenly Fire Spirit rushed towards Di Jiu, his Dao fire soared insanely and blocked the Heavenly Fire Spirit, which was about to explode.

However, the Dao fire merely soared for a short time and started to weaken after Di Jiu escaped from the Heavenly Fire Spirit. The Dao fire was formed by Di Jiu’s Dao law and life, so it knew very well what Di Jiu wanted. Di Jiu needed time to attain nirvana. Only when his physical body had undergone nirvana would he be able to survive. Despite being engulfed by the Heavenly Fire Spirit, the Dao fire continued burning to block the Heavenly Fire Spirit.

By the time Mo Yuxuan was dragged out by Di Jiu, she was so badly burned that she had started to lose her shape and she was breathing weakly.

Di Jiu circulated the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art like crazy the moment he escaped from the Heavenly Fire Spirit. His physical body formed quickly as soon as he was away from the threat of the Heavenly Fire Spirit.

The Luminous Starry Sky was finally defeated by the Heavenly Fire Spirit. The Dao fire would have been engulfed by the Heavenly Fire Spirit if the latter had not remembered the weakling called Di Jiu.

The Heavenly Fire Spirit rushed towards Di Jiu crazily after suppressing the Dao fire and engulfed Di Jiu once again. The Dao fire followed with the intention of holding the Heavenly Fire Spirit back while it took its last breath.

All the bones in Di Jiu’s body started to make cracking sounds the moment he was covered by the Heavenly Fire Spirit. His body seemed to convert in an instant.

A whole new feeling rushed up to his heart as he growled. He started to refine the Heavenly Fire Spirit by circulating the Galaxy Art crazily while also circulating the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art at the same time.

The terrifying flame dashed into Di Jiu’s starry sky meridian once again. This time, the flame was not life-threatening, so it helped Di Jiu attain the Nirvana Immortal Body instead.

Boom! The sound of an explosion was heard from Di Jiu’s Spiritual Sea. His Spiritual Sea expanded rapidly and solidified before it broke through to the level-three Immortal Force and his physical body underwent nirvana successfully and attained the Nirvana Immortal Body.

Although the Nirvana Immortal Body would still be burned by the Heavenly Fire Spirit, Di Jiu had a stronger defense now because he could refine and weaken the Heavenly Fire Spirit. Di Jiu intensified the way he refined the Heavenly Fire Spirit every single time he recalled being almost killed by it.

The Dao fire, which had been about to be extinguished, started to burn brighter gradually as Di Jiu joined in.

As time passed, Di Jiu and the Dao fire stopped being suppressed by the Heavenly Fire Spirit and started being able to contend against the latter. Then, Di Jiu and the Dao fire suppressed the Heavenly Fire Spirit and the Dao fire engulfed it.

The Heavenly Fire Spirit, which finally felt desperate, pleaded Di Jiu to let it go or at least not refine it.

As long as Di Jiu did not refine it, it would be willing to be his follower.

Although Di Jiu could feel that aura, he did not want to be merciful. He sped up the refining speed instead of slowing down.

The Heavenly Fire Spirit could not resist, no matter how much it wanted to. It could only watch its core get refined and its Spirit Origin get engulfed by the Dao fire bit by bit.

Countless golden rays exploded from the black Dao fire after some time. The Heavenly Fire Spirit disappeared without a trace while the black Dao fire now had four more golden rays.

Di Jiu’s cultivation experience broke through the level-four Perfected Immortal Realm and reached level five at the same time.

There was a message from the Dao fire. Di Jiu could sort of guess that the Dao fire had produced the fire spirit. He should have been delighted, because his Dao fire would be a level-four immortal flame after it underwent nirvana and he attained the Nirvana Immortal Body and the level-five Perfected Immortal Realm.

However, Di Jiu was not happy at all. Instead, he dashed towards Mo Yuxuan.

Mo Yuxuan had been disfigured by the Heavenly Fire Spirit, so Di Jiu stuffed a few elixirs into her mouth.

Without the help of the immortal pill, Di Jiu could only keep Mo Yuxuan’s breathing even and prevent her from any further destruction, even though he was a grade-nine Elixir King.

“Junior Sister Mo, thank you for saving me. I will save you, no matter what,” Di Jiu murmured as he hugged Mo Yuxuan.

Mo Yuxuan twitched her hand, which only had a few bones left, as though she had heard Di Jiu’s words. “Senior Brother Di, you saved me first... I don’t think I can survive for long... Please bury me under the ruins of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect... I am unworthy. I did not listen to my master. I did not safeguard... the Cultivation World. Thank you for accepting me and keeping me by your side...”

If Di Jiu had not had a strong Spiritual Force, he would not have been able to hear Mo Yuxuan’s words. Mo Yuxuan went silent after she finished her words. Di Jiu knew that she had not passed away, as she still had some life force.

He carried Mo Yuxuan carefully and said with a firm tone, “I will definitely save you.”

Di Jiu would not give up, even though he knew how challenging it would be. Without Mo Yuxuan, he and the Dao fire would have been engulfed by the Heavenly Fire Spirit.

The Heavenly Fire Spirit had burned Mo Yuxuan’s Blood Essence and Principal Spirit, so saving her would not be simple. However, Di Jiu had made up his mind. He would save Mo Yuxuan even if the Starry Sky Immortal City was gone.

...

Yan Xiaosha bent down by the Sky Bamboo River and gazed at the germinating Sky Bamboo. His heart was filled with an ineffable sense of satisfaction, just like the Sky Bamboo.

He had felt the same way when he had first started cultivating. This felt like the moment he had left the Cultivation World and entered the Immortal World.

While the Dao runes swirled, Yan Xiaosha felt as if something in his body had been broken. His cultivation level slacked for a moment and then increased drastically.

Yan Xiaosha regained his Peak Immortal Lord status within half an hour. However, that was not all. His cultivation experience soon soared until he became a Perfected Immortal Lord.

Yan Xiaosha straightened his body and looked in the direction of the Sky Screen Pit. He wanted to tell City Lord Di Jiu that, from this moment onwards, he stood a chance to attain the great immortal realm. As long as he became a Great Unity Immortal, the Starry Sky Immortal City would have an additional layer of defense.

He had not dared to cultivate in the past because he had needed too much Immortal Spirit Qi, which could affect the Defense Arrays of the city. Although Di Jiu had not mentioned anything, Yan Xiaosha was still worried about the Defense Arrays of the city.

The Defense Arrays in the Starry Sky Immortal City were supported by the Spirit Qi of the Spirit Gathering Array and the Sky Bamboos. There was no immortal meridian at the bottom of the Starry Sky Immortal City.

An array flag on Yan Xiaosha’s wrist started vibrating suddenly. He immediately turned around quickly and dashed towards the city gate without hesitation.

Di Jiu had given him this array flag before leaving. This array flag controlled the Defense Arrays in the city, so it would only vibrate if the city was under attack.

Who had the audacity to attack the Starry Sky Immortal City?
