Ninth In the World Chapter 717

Di Jiu sighed when he walked into the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City.

During the journey to the Magnetic Mountain, he had found out that the Great Ultimate Realm was far inferior to the Dao World. Fragments of broken traces of a fight, cracks of mountains and rivers, and drying rivers were everywhere.

Even though there were many Itinerant Cultivators, there were not many with valiant cultivation levels.

The only advantage was that cultivation was possible with the Heaven Earth Law there. At least, this was much better than the time when he had just arrived in the Square Immortal Continent. Back then, the Square Immortal Continent had entered a sunset state, while this place was only broken.

Now, Di Jiu had entered the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City, only to discover that not all places in the Great Ultimate Realm were fragmented. At least, a divine city like the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City was more lively and prosperous than most divine cities of the Dao World.

While so many cultivators were coming and going, Di Jiu saw a few Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperors. What relieved him was that he did not see any Dao Integration experts or even half-step Dao Integration experts.

According to the news he'd obtained, Moon Traverse Divine Hall Master Ren Jisha was also the City Lord of the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City. The Moon Traverse Divine Hall was actually situated within the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City.

Although Di Jiu would like to find out more about Fairy Yueshu, those three Dao Birth cultivators were unwilling to tell him more. Left without a choice, he could only come to the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City.

There were three grades of Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City inns. The first-grade ones were only three. The second-grade Fairy Inns were most widely seen in the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City, while some low-level Itinerant Cultivators stayed in the third-grade ones.

Since the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City was bustling and prosperous, various auctions and exchange meetings were held and there was a mystic area that catered to all the cultivators of the Great Ultimate Realm.

Therefore, the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City was always bustling and prosperous, no matter what time it was, and the inns were in short supply.

Di Jiu wanted to recuperate, so he naturally wanted to stay in the most top-notch inn. After all, he was not short of divine crystals.

Unfortunately, the top-notch inns had been fully booked a long time ago. After wandering around the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City for nearly a day, he did not find a place he could lodge at. Eventually, he could only leave behind a message before he found a place to have tea in the Bright Boat Teahouse and waited for someone to message him.

If there was still no news about an empty room after he sat for a while, he could only toss his divine crystals. However, he was unwilling to do so because he had not gone there to seek fame but to get the Sun Core. As an unfamiliar cultivator, it would not be good for him if he tossed his divine crystals. Most importantly, he had suffered serious injuries.

“Excuse me, what kind of tea do you need?” As soon as Di Jiu sat down, a shop assistant greeted him with a wide smile on his face.

Di Jiu knew very well what the shop assistant meant. He had read some of the regulations of this teahouse. As long as he sat down, he had to order tea and the quality of the tea ordered was related to the time he would spend sitting there. It was impossible for him to just order the tea and keep sitting there. After a while, someone would tell him to go away.

“I'll have a Magnetic Divine Tea.” After pointing at the most expensive tea, Di Jiu took out a storage bag and threw it to the shop assistant. A teapot of this tea cost nearly 10,000 high-grade divine crystals.

Upon hearing Di Jiu order a teapot of Magnetic Divine Tea, the shop assistant immediately said happily, “Alright. Please have a seat. I'll serve the tea right away.”

The shop assistant quickly left. It seemed that not many people ordered the Magnetic Divine Tea in the Bright Boat Teahouse.

“Friend, if you want to drink the Magnetic Divine Tea here, you'll be greatly disappointed.” A slightly tanned, ordinary-looking woman approached Di Jiu and sat down. Based on her cultivation level, she should be at the late-stage Dao Birth.

Di Jiu had read the regulations of this teahouse. As long as the tea he ordered exceeded 8,000 top-grade divine crystals, he was qualified not to allow anyone to sit at his table for four hours.

However, Di Jiu did not mind. Instead, he said, “Oh, why is that so?”

“Sir, your Magnetic Divine Tea is here.” The shop assistant brought a teapot and a few teacups to Di Jiu.

After the shop assistant left, the woman chuckled and said, “As the name implies, the Magnetic Divine Tea comes from special tea leaves from the Magnetic Mountain. In fact, the Magnetic Divine Tea here is merely brewed from some tea dregs from the edge of the Magnetic Mountain. If you truly want to drink the Magnetic Divine Tea, you can only go to the Magnetic Inn, where the Magnetic Divine Tea truly comes from the Magnetic Mountain.”

Di Jiu poured a cup of tea for himself and another for the other person. “I'll treat you to a cup of tea. I'll have the Magnetic Inn's tea another day. Since I came here today, I'll try the knockoff version.”

Di Jiu had gone there to drink tea, not truly because of the Magnetic Divine Tea but because there were empty seats there. Furthermore, he had just come out of the edge of the Magnetic Mountain so he had ordered the most expensive tea.

The Magnetic Divine Tea was the most expensive tea there. However, 10,000 high-grade divine crystals were nothing to Di Jiu.

“You're treating me to this kind of Magnetic Divine Tea?” Amazed, the woman stared at Di Jiu. She had ordinary looks and she was not pretty. Thus, she could not understand why he had treated a stranger like her to this kind of tea.

“That's right. Besides, this is not the true Magnetic Divine Tea,” Di Jiu replied with a faint smile.

“Thank you.” The woman hurriedly took the teacup and drained it in one gulp.

She then closed her eyes and opened them after a while before saying, “Good tea.”

Di Jiu was somewhat speechless. She had said that the tea there was trash and was not the true Magnetic Divine Tea. However, she was enjoying the tea now.

Upon seeing Di Jiu's speechless expression, the woman was not embarrassed. She only said with a smile, “I said that this tea is not the true Magnetic Divine Tea because that is indeed the case. However, a person like me can't even afford such tea. Since this was my first time drinking this, I enjoyed it. Thank you, friend, for not minding that I sat down and even treating me to this tea.”

Di Jiu did not laugh at the woman before him. If he had not obtained the Ninth Dao Law by chance, he would have been way inferior to this woman, much less been able to drink tea. Or perhaps, he would have been dead.

He held up his teacup and drained the Magnetic Divine Tea in one gulp.

Instantly, Di Jiu captured a dignified aura but not nomological circulations. He performed the Nomological Qi Circulation slightly and actually sensed that this Magnetic Divine Tea had an effect that condensed his Divine Essence and even left the impression of a divine power.

However, such an efficacy was simply too weak for him.

Di Jiu shook his head and wondered what the true Magnetic Divine Tea was like.

“How is it? Even though it's the most ordinary Magnetic Divine Tea, it's still not bad, right?” the woman asked upon seeing Di Jiu put down the teacup.

Smiling slightly, Di Jiu pushed the Magnetic Divine Tea in his hands toward the woman while saying, “I don't really like this kind of tea. I'll give it to you.”

“Ah…” Immediately, the woman thanked him joyfully. “Thank you, friend.”

Then, she took this Magnetic Divine Tea and poured another cup before she closed her eyes and drained the contents in one gulp.

Di Jiu was very puzzled. Even though the Great Ultimate Realm looked very fragmented, as a late-stage Dao Birth cultivator, she could afford a teapot of Magnetic Divine Tea worth 10,000 high-grade divine crystals, right?

After this woman drank the contents of the teapot, she opened her eyes in satisfaction and said with a sigh, “It's great being wealthy.”

Upon saying that, she felt somewhat embarrassed. “Friend, I'm waiting for a friend here and I didn't have a place to sit. Thus, I sat next to you.”

Di Jiu, who did not mind that, gestured with his hands and responded, “I just want to ask a few questions.”

The woman hurriedly replied, “I'm Xuan Yushu and I'm waiting for a friend here. If you have any questions, please ask me. I don't know anything else, but I basically know about the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City.”

Overjoyed, Di Jiu immediately said, “I just arrived here from elsewhere. I heard that the prettiest fairy in the Heavenly Moon Sacred Dao City is Fairy Yueshu.”
