Not long after, Qin Di left the Shang Qing Realm and drove the Sky-piercing Ship straight to the Divine Ruin Wasteland.
The Divine Ruin Wasteland was a mysterious continent. This continent was like an onion, with layers upon layers. The deeper one went, the faster time flowed. The outermost layer flowed twice as fast as the Yu Qing Realm, and the inner layer flowed many times faster. Because of this, if one wanted to go deep into this continent, the requirement for a cultivator's cultivation was too high.
The core area of the Divine Ruin Wasteland could be said to be desolate and uninhabited. Only a few high-level Immortal Emperors could reach there.
In the periphery of the Divine Ruin Wasteland, there were a few Immortal Cities, all built by ancient Immortals. Anyone who could reach there was at least a high-level Sengoku.
Qin Di flew at an extremely fast speed for twenty years before arriving at the edge of the Divine Ruin Wasteland.
The first thing he saw was "Heavenly Dao City". This was a relatively large Immortal City, and also the place where the Heavenly Dao Tablet was located. Because it was at the outermost area of the Divine Ruin Wasteland, the flow of time did not increase by much. In addition, there was an immortal formation around the city that was said to be able to slightly slow down the flow of time, so many people used it as a temporary resting place.
Qin Di walked into Heavenly Dao City. This was an open city, and no one stood at the entrance to collect entrance fees.
There were hundreds of Immortal Palaces in the city, half of which were occupied, and the other half were empty. It seemed that anyone could go in and rest.
Qin Di first came to the front of the Heavenly Dao Tablet. Standing a hundred feet away, he looked up and fixed his eyes on it.
It was a gigantic stone tablet that was both tall and thick. It was several hundred zhang tall, over ten zhang wide, and thirty zhang thick. From afar, it looked like a gigantic liquid crystal screen with countless names listed on it. Because there were too many names, it was difficult to read them clearly.
There was a circle of railings around the Heavenly Dao Tablet to prevent immortals from getting too close.
There were a few people standing by the railings, including two Immortal Emperors and five or six high-level Sengoku. They were looking and talking.
"Look, why is the first place on the Heavenly Dao Tablet instead of the Jade Emperor? Why isn't the Sanqing Taoist Ancestor up there? Why did Qing Emperor Fuxi and Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan fall behind Jade Emperor? "
"Not only the Sanqing Daofather, but many ancient immortals' names are not on the list! For example, East Monarch Taiyi, Patriarch Roc, Emperor Jun, Lady Nuwa, Patriarch Hong Yun, Patriarch Nether River, and so on. What's the reason? "
"Perhaps the Heavenly Dao has a spirit and doesn't dare to measure these big shots?"
"The five old Imperial Emperors might be too far away from this place, so the results displayed on the Heavenly Dao Tablet are inaccurate."
"The Jade Emperor has improved very quickly these years. I remember that he was only ranked in the top five a million years ago. I didn't expect him to be ranked first now."
"Emperor Gu Luo, do you think this head is fake? I heard that thirty thousand years ago, the avatar of the Jade Emperor came here and walked around the Heavenly Dao Monument again and again. He stayed here for eight hundred years, and his ranking suddenly jumped to the top! "
"Eh? How is this possible? "
"I also heard that someone who cultivated the Heavenly Hearing Ability heard the Jade Emperor mumbling to himself as he walked. He seemed to be threatening and cursing the Heavenly Dao Monument …"
"Haha, you are saying that the Heavenly Dao Monument is afraid and has no choice but to move the Jade Emperor's name forward? What benefits does the Jade Emperor get by doing this? "
"Let me tell you, there are many benefits! Who is the Jade Emperor? He is the ruler of the world! Previously, some people said that he did not get the position properly and used some unspeakable methods to enter the Lingxiao Hall and become the Heavenly Emperor. Some people said that his cultivation is very weak and does not deserve to sit in the Lingxiao Hall! But now, he put his name at the top of the Heavenly Dao Monument and increased his prestige. This way, the people below will not dare to say anything, right? "
"There are some loopholes in what you said. Since the Jade Emperor can come and threaten the Heavenly Dao Monument, can others do the same? I want to put my name at the top, do you think the Heavenly Dao Monument will agree? "
"Haha, Monarch Jinsheng, you are only a Sixth Stage Immortal Emperor. If you dare to do this, you will be hacked to death in no time!"
"Monarch Gu Luo, tell me, why is the Jade Emperor not afraid of being hacked to death?"
"So what? He is already one of the top ranked Immortal Emperors and his body has always been in the Ling Xiao King Palace. Who can kill him? "
"From what I see, there are other reasons. I heard that the Heavenly Dao Monument can only be looked at from afar and cannot be touched. If you don't believe me, go and touch it. "
"Why can't we touch it? Do you think these railings can stop us? "
"Look carefully, there is a transparent array within ten feet of the Heavenly Dao Monument. I heard that it is a divine array set up by the Sanqing Ancestors and the Qing Emperor Fuxi. It can stop you outside."
"Since there is a divine array, can't it stop the Jade Emperor?"
"The Jade Emperor has a heaven-grade divine artifact. If he goes all out, he can still break the divine array. It's just that I don't know how long it will take."
Qin Di took a step forward and bowed: "I am Sima Yi, greet Monarch Jinsheng and Monarch Gu Luo."
The two Monarchs turned to look at Qin Di and realized that his cultivation was slightly higher than theirs. They quickly bowed back: "Dao Brother Sima, it's an honor to meet you!"
Qin Di thought: I am just casually borrowing the name of an ancient person, why do you say it's an honor to meet you? Could it be that Sima Yi really became an immortal? Even if he did, he might not be a Sengoku or an Immortal Emperor. He might even be an ordinary Heavenly Immortal.
He knew that they were just flattering him, so he smiled and said, "Immortal Kings, I just heard you say that the Jade Emperor came here 30,000 years ago. Is that true?"
Monarch Gu Luo nodded: "Of course! The Jade Emperor has a clone that roams the Da Luo heaven all year round in order to collect the Primordial Purple Qi. "
Qin Di was taken aback. "You're saying that we can meet him at any time? If that's the case, we have to be careful what we say. "
Monarch Jinsheng said: "Don't worry, the Divine Ruins Wasteland is so big. I'm afraid he won't be back anytime soon."
Qin Di asked: "Monarchs, this is my first time here. Where can I find the Primordial Purple Qi?"
Monarch Gu Luo answered: "Dao Brother Sima, you can keep walking! The deeper you go, the higher the chance of encountering the Primordial Purple Qi. In the core of the Divine Ruins Wasteland, there are some divine ruins and some abandoned divine palaces. There are often Primordial Purple Qi there. Just one mouthful of Primordial Purple Qi can increase an Immortal Emperor's cultivation by 100,000 years. That's good stuff. "
"Monarchs, how many years have you been here? Have you encountered the Primordial Purple Qi? "
Monarch Gu Luo laughed: "Haha, I've been here for 38,000 years. Even though I've only swallowed one mouthful of Primordial Purple Qi, it's still a profit! Alas, I can only walk around the periphery and don't dare to go deeper … "
Monarch Jinsheng had an ashamed expression: "I've only been here for 3,000 years and haven't found the Primordial Purple Qi yet. What a pity, not only did my cultivation not increase, but I also lost 7,000 years of lifespan for nothing! If I had known this, I might as well have stayed in the Jade Clarity Realm to cultivate. "
Monarch Gu Luo said: "I risked my life to charge into the third level and finally found a lucky chance with great difficulty!"
Qin Di said: "I heard that the Divine Ruins Wasteland has a total of nine levels. The deeper you go, the higher the terrain, is that true?"
Monarch Gu Luo said: "That's right, the outside has been searched by people. Only the inside will have miracles, divine materials, and Primordial Purple Qi.
But the deeper you go, the faster time passes. Not only does it reduce lifespan, more importantly, it can deprive life force! You know, everyone has a limited amount of life force. Just like among mortals, a young man's life force is strong and can do it seven times in a night. A middle-aged man's life force declines and can't be replenished in three days. An old man's life force is dying.
Even if we are Immortal Emperors and have unlimited lifespan in other places, we can't do it here. Not only is our lifespan slowly taken away, but our life force is also taken away. If the rate at which our life force is produced cannot keep up with the rate at which it is taken away, then we can die here! Because of this, very few people dare to enter the fourth level of the Divine Ruins Wasteland … "
"How do we go in?"
"Not only do we need high cultivation, we also need divine materials and weapons."
"Sadly, I don't have any!"
"Yes, only Immortal Emperors will have those things."
