“We’re here.” Since the two of them were very fast, Ci stopped on the 11th day.

There was only a void before their eyes without anything special. While Di Jiu was puzzled, Ci raised his hand to throw an array flag down. Very soon, an indistinct planet appeared before Di Jiu.

Without needing to ask, Di Jiu knew that Ci had left room for maneuvering here long ago. Otherwise, he couldn’t have revealed the hidden planet in the void with just an array flag.

Ci chuckled and said, “Maybe this is related to my shady business. Back then, just to be prepared for any eventualities, I left room for maneuvering in many places, including the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean. I didn’t expect the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean to provoke you instead of me.”

Di Jiu didn’t ask what kind of shady business Ci was involved in. He instead looked at the planet before him in shock. To be precise, this was not a planet but a floating continent in the void.

Even though he had yet to enter this continent, Di Jiu could sense that the Heaven Earth Law in it was more perfect than that of the Great Ultimate Realm. This seemed somewhat strange.

The border of this continent was enveloped by layers of atmosphere, and there was a huge square vaguely hidden in the atmosphere.

“Do you find it strange that there’s a hidden floating continent in the void with such a perfect Heaven Earth Law?” Ci, who seemed to sense Di Jiu’s doubts, took the initiative to ask.

Di Jiu nodded his head. “Yes. Based on my understanding, the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean is clearly located on an imperfect planet. It’s only considered an incomplete floating continent. Why is this continent’s Heaven Earth Law so complete? This is indeed shocking to me.”

Ci faintly responded, “You don’t have to be shocked. Actually, everyone discovered this long ago. The cultivators of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean were more ruthless and vicious than me and went overboard. I’ll collect the debt from the debtor and take revenge according to how much a person has offended me. However, the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean is different. If one of their disciples is killed, they could wipe out the other party’s planet.

“As for the floating continent of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean, it was initially only a place with low-level laws. The Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean forcibly removed the planet’s origin and the light from providence from the most top-notch planet. Then, they forcibly placed them here. The destruction of many planets caused the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean to become this way.”

Di Jiu took a cold breath. He had always thought that it was cruel enough of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean to refine the Heaven Earth Realm. He hadn’t expected that they would be so cruel as to constantly strip off a planet’s origin and light from providence. How many lives were they going to wipe out?

Ci sneered. “The Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean is digging its own grave by doing this. Even though they are thriving and I’m sure they definitely have over 100 third-step experts, so what? The third-step experts cultivated in a place like the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean are just ostensible. In other words, such third-step experts are only a little stronger than pseudo-third-step experts. If the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean wants to rely on such experts to dominate the universe, they are still far from doing so. Back then, the Bei Family’s Patriarch knew his place well. However, that does not apply to the later generations of the Bei Family.”

“Over 100 third-step experts?” Di Jiu was once again speechless.

He had seen the third-step experts of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean. If there were only a few of them, he would be confident about killing them. However, if there were over 100 third-step experts, he was sure that he couldn’t wipe out the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean. It seemed like he had overestimated himself. If Ci hadn’t come here, he might perhaps have had an internecine outcome with the cultivators of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean. He would eventually have released a pile of experts and wiped out the Great Ultimate Realm.

Once Ci saw Di Jiu’s expression, he knew what he was worried about and smiled again. “Brother Di, although I’m sure that I wouldn’t be your match in a one-on-one battle, you can’t be compared to me when it comes to killing people. If you come alone, you will definitely not be able to wipe out the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean. The other party might even eventually counterattack, causing an internecine outcome. However, it’s different now that I’m here. I definitely rank in the top three people that the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean fears. In order to not let anyone from the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean escape, I suggest using a confinement array first to lock the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean.”

Di Jiu shook his head. “It’s useless. Over 100 third-step experts could tear any confinement array we set up in just dozens of seconds at most. Besides, we don’t know how many Dao Integration experts there are. Regardless of what kind of confinement array we set up, it’ll be useless.”

Ci nodded. “You’re right, but dozens of seconds is enough time for me to kill the people of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean a dozen times.”

Di Jiu looked at Ci in surprise. Could he be Dao Lord Calamity? Di Jiu had chased away Dao Lord Calamity’s disciple, Weng Xing. However, he didn’t seem that formidable.

Even though he was very doubtful, Di Jiu still didn’t ask about Ci’s background. He only took out a handful of array flags and said, “I can set up the confinement array, but the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean is too big. I’ll need at least a month to set it up alone.”

Ci shook his head. “You won’t. You’ll just need to seal the exit of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean. Leave everything else to me.”

At first, Di Jiu had wanted to help him. However, now that he had heard Ci say that, it seemed that he couldn’t be of much help. Nevertheless, Di Jiu still wanted to see whether Ci was as formidable as he had said.

Di Jiu threw array flags down and tried to seal the exit of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean. He did not even spare much effort. In just half a day, he set up a level-nine Divine Array.

“Brother Di, that’s a really formidable Array Dao. I’m still inferior compared to you. It’s no wonder that you were able to leave the Dao Abyss easily.” Upon seeing Di Jiu set up the confinement array, Ci gasped.

Before Di Jiu could utter a word, he saw the atmosphere on both sides suddenly weaken. Then, a void continent with a vast, majestic aura appeared before his eyes.

“They have discovered it. I didn’t expect that there would be a few geniuses in the Bei Family of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean besides Bei Yangu.” After Ci said that without minding much, he landed on the huge square outside the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean with one step.

Then, Di Jiu landed beside Ci.

A slightly-tanned, dignified man landed on the edge of Di Jiu’s confinement array. A moment later, four to five experts appeared behind him. Without scanning them with his Spiritual Force, Di Jiu could tell that these were third-step experts.

When these people appeared, they did not attack Di Jiu’s confinement array right away. They looked at Di Jiu and Ci coldly before one of them said, “What do the two of you mean by this? You guys came to the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean and used the confinement array to seal the Bei Family’s exit?”

He sounded sarcastic, so he clearly was not taking Di Jiu seriously. Even though Di Jiu had used the level-nine Divine Array to confine the exit of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean, everything was still the same. As the Family Head of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean’s Bei Family, Bei Jianchou indeed had a reason not to take Di Jiu and Ci seriously.

Di Jiu coldly answered, “I’m the Great Ultimate Realm’s Dao Lord. The people of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean attacked the Great Ultimate Realm’s Defense Array for hundreds of years and tried to destroy the Great Ultimate Realm. What do you think I mean by this?”

“Where are the members of the Bei Family?” Bei Jianchou reacted quickly and immediately sensed that something was amiss. If the Great Ultimate Realm had been wiped out, there should have been news from Bei Yiyu and Bei Ku. How come they’d only found out after someone else had come to find them?

“They have been killed by me,” Di Jiu answered calmly as he drew his Heavenly Aqua Saber. He didn’t really believe that there were over 100 third-step experts in the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean. Once the other party made a move, he would kill them.

“You must have a death wish…” Furious, Bei Jianchou drew his Dharma treasure and struck Di Jiu’s Confinement Killing Array. At the same time, he used the Bei Family’s top-notch strangulation token. He was even more furious about the fact that Bei Yiyu, Bei Ku, Bei Yifei, and Bei Ping might have been killed and the disciples guarding the Bei Family’s Soul Card had not told him about this.

After Bei Jianchou drew his Dharma treasure, the people behind him did the same. A moment later, countless figures rushed toward the exit of the Supreme Bei Celestial Ocean’s Defense Array.

Ci sneered and lifted his hand to perform some mysterious, esoteric techniques.

Before Di Jiu could see what was going on, Bei Jianchou’s expression turned from furious to horrified. Then, his face turned pale and he stopped what he was doing. He pointed at Ci and said in a trembling voice, “You… You… It’s you…”
