Upon hearing Di Jiu’s words, the locked cultivator chuckled again. “Are you aware of the level of the Divine Array outside this place? Do you know that, in addition to the Confinement Killing Divine Array and this Solitary Buddha Lava, there are also endless pieces of top-notch natural restriction Dharma fragments? What I find the most ridiculous is that you don’t even know who caught you.”

“What are top-notch natural restriction Dharma fragments?” Di Jiu asked in confusion.

The locked cultivator said in shock, “You don’t even know that yet you still want to go out?”

Di Jiu replied faintly, “At least I’m not locked like you. Perhaps I can break your cage and release you. Besides, who caught me? At least I can move freely now. You’re the one captured, I’m just trapped.”

The locked cultivator did not waver after hearing Di Jiu’s words. He still said unhurriedly, “What’s the difference? Forget it. I’ll tell you what is a natural restriction Dharma fragment. This fragment can be found everywhere in the Solitary Buddha Lava. Once you go out, these fragments can form a top-notch level-nine Confinement Killing Restriction Array to trap you at any time.

“Even if you have the outstanding ability to break this Confinement Killing Restriction Array, the Solitary Buddha Lava will form a second Confinement Killing Restriction Array right away. Even if you attack the array for a lifetime, I’m afraid you won’t be able to break this restriction array. I really can’t figure out how someone can bear to use this place to trap a person like you.”

Ignoring the guy’s sarcasm, Di Jiu asked, “Do you mean that the restriction Dharma fragments in the Solitary Buddha Lava are like an array pattern? They can form endless Dharma Arrays anywhere at any time?”

The trapped cultivator answered lightly, “You could think of it that way, but the array pattern is far from comparable to these restriction Dharma fragments. This place is a natural cage. I’m afraid nobody can get out. It’s not bad that you didn’t die right away.”

“Are you sure that nobody can go out?” Di Jiu inquired.

After hesitating, the locked cultivator replied, “Except for very few people, the vast majority of cultivators die here.”

“Who are these very few people?” Di Jiu calmed down.

The locked cultivator shook his head and did not bother answering Di Jiu.

Di Jiu, who didn’t care, walked over to the iron cage and said, “Let’s get to know each other. My name is Di Jiu. Although my cultivation level is not high, my strength is fine. I’ve been walking in the void for several years. Apart from dealing with a plot this time, I’ve never met anyone formidable. Seeing that you are locked in the illusory flame yet you are so carefree, you should be a formidable person, right?”

Upon hearing Di Jiu’s introduction, the locked cultivator sighed. “You are still very happy, but you won’t be after a while. Getting to know you isn’t important. My name is Bei Yingshu, but I’m also called Supreme Oneness Dao Lord.”

Bei Yingshu? Di Jiu repeated that name and then shook his head. “I’ve never heard of that name, but it is impressive. Supreme Oneness Dao Lord. He he... I’ve heard of someone called Eastern Emperor Supreme Oneness. Are you related to him?”

“You know the Eastern Emperor Supreme Oneness?” Bei Yingshu asked in surprise. At the same time, he stared at Di Jiu, seemingly wanting to know whether what Di Jiu had said was true or not.

Di Jiu looked at the Supreme Oneness Dao Lord in surprise. He had casually mentioned Eastern Emperor Supreme Oneness, who was a character in Chinese mythology, so how could he appear there? Had Bei Yingshu gone dumb? He had still asked about Eastern Emperor Supreme Oneness...

Something was not right. If Eastern Emperor Supreme Oneness was indeed a character in Chinese mythology, how did Bei Yingshu know about him?

Di Jiu suddenly found this a bit unrealistic. He couldn’t help but pinch his arm to see whether it hurt. Could he have been dreaming all along? However, his cultivation level, insight, and everything he had obtained were not fake.

Di Jiu shook his head and forcibly set aside these unrealistic issues. Upon seeing Bei Yingshu’s eager gaze, he could only say, “Tell me why you are locked here first, and I’ll tell you who Eastern Emperor Supreme Oneness is.”

“Alright,” Bei Yingshu answered without hesitation. “I am locked here because I knew a good big brother whose name is Xiao Wen. I believe you should have heard of this person.”

Before Bei Yingshu could finish, Di Jiu shook his head and said, “Sorry, I have never heard of Xiao Wen. Is he great?”

“You don’t know Xiao Wen?” It was Bei Yingshu’s turn to be stunned this time. He had assumed that Xiao Wen had commanded the five realms and assembled the Seven-Scroll Heavenly Book.

Di Jiu spread his hand. “I really don’t know who Xiao Wen is.”

“This is impossible, impossible...” Bei Yingshu muttered to himself a few times before he sighed. He did not continue to talk about Xiao Wen. Instead, he went silent.

Based on Bei Yingshu’s words, Di Jiu had taken a guess. Thus, he did not bother asking him about this gossip and said, “As for Eastern Emperor Supreme Oneness, I know his Dharma treasure is the Eastern Imperial Clock... Um, I also heard that he perished in the war with the Witch Sect. I don’t know whether it’s true.”

Since this was a Chinese myth, Di Jiu naturally did not know whether it was true or not.

“Is the Witch Sect so powerful?” Bei Yingshu muttered to himself, seemingly immersed in ancient memories.

At a glance, Di Jiu knew that he couldn’t ask him for anything. He walked aside and began to study how to get out of this place.

He had offended many people in the void, but not many people could plot against him or use Tang Beiwei to do that. Di Jiu could only think of Nuo La.

He walked around the bottom of Solitary Buddha Lava a few times and set up a bunch of nomological array flags. After a few laps, Di Jiu realized that Bei Yingshu had not exaggerated. It was indeed really difficult to get out of there.

However, Di Jiu still felt that he could go out as long as he could become a level-nine Divine Array Emperor. Even if someone else was a level-nine Divine Array Emperor, they probably would not be able to get out of there. However, Di Jiu had the nomological array flags.

Although there were many restriction Dharma fragments in the Solitary Buddha Lava, that only applied to other cultivators, not to him. Once he set up the endless nomological array flags, considering that he was a level-nine Divine Array Emperor, he could make use of the nomological array flags he continuously set up to reverse the restriction when he rushed out of the Solitary Buddha Lava.

“Huh? You can still set up nomological array flags with your Spiritual Force?” While Di Jiu was setting up the nomological array flags, he heard Bei Yingshu’s surprised voice.

Obviously, he had been shocked by Di Jiu’s actions. His ability to set up nomological array flags with his Spiritual Force was simply too heaven-defying.

Di Jiu was really shocked. No one had ever discovered him setting up nomological array flags except for Bei Yingshu despite the fact that he was handicapped. How strong had this guy been before he had become handicapped?

Fortunately, he had just found out that Di Jiu could set up array flags through his Spiritual Force but he had not found out that, besides using his Spiritual Force, he could also use his intent to do so. If he discovered this, then some of his biggest secrets would probably be exposed.

“Not bad. I can indeed use my Spiritual Force to set up nomological array flags. How’s that? I’m confident about getting out, alright?” Di Jiu chuckled and spoke casually.

Bei Yingshu shook his head. “Your Array Dao skills are too low. If I’m right, you seem to be able to set up a level-seven Divine Array.”

“That’s fine. I can continue to delve into the Array Dao. I believe that I can advance to a level-nine Divine Array Emperor very soon. Once that happens, won’t the rest be easy?” Di Jiu said without hesitation.

Bei Yingshu was stunned by what Di Jiu had said. After a long while, he said with a sigh, “I’ve seen a lot of geniuses, no matter how arrogant. However, this is the first time I’m seeing and hearing a person like you.”

No matter how arrogant a genius was, they would dare not say that their Array Dao was still lacking and they would advance right away. If advancing to a level-nine Divine Array Emperor had been so simple, such geniuses wouldn’t have been so rare and Bei Yingshu wouldn’t have been trapped there for countless years.
