Chapter 880: A Person Uses the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit to Brew Wine
Di Jiu looked at the gray-robed man sitting at the foot of the mountain in shock. Someone had really come to the Mountain Gaze a step earlier than him. Since the other party had come to the Mountain Gaze first, it meant that this person had been enlightened.
“Not bad. You can understand that the Mountain Gaze is below your feet despite your young age. You’ll have a bright future.” After expressing his surprise, the man praised Di Jiu.
The gray-robed man was sitting at the foot of the gray Mountain Gaze. Nobody could really notice him without paying attention. Di Jiu could see clearly that this fellow should be at the perfected Dao Integration Realm and had yet to reach the third step.
“I was only luckier. Senior, are you the first person to get here?” This was what Di Jiu really wanted to ask.
The gray-robed man chuckled. “The first person? I saw seven or eight people climb up the mountain in front of me. If your cultivation level wasn’t only at the Primordial Chaos Realm and you didn’t look extremely young, I wouldn’t have bothered talking to you. My name is Du Zihen. You’ve probably never heard of my name…”
If Di Jiu had been any other cultivator, even if he had been young, the gray-robed cultivator would not even have glanced at him. However, he sensed a hint of a familiar aura on Di Jiu today and could tell that he was worth associating with. Since he had gotten lonely after sitting there for so many years, it wouldn’t be bad to make a friend.
Du Zihen. Di Jiu had really not heard of that name. Even if he had, he would still not have been in the mood to care. He was wondering how many people had climbed up the Mountain Gaze and whether he could still reach the top if he rushed up now.
Du Zihen looked very elegant, so Di Jiu said with cupped fists, “Greetings, Senior.”
Du Zihen laughed and said while gesturing with his hand. “Senior? What I hate most is taking advantage of seniority. If you look up to me, just call me Zihen. Otherwise, just go straight up the mountain. I guess you are also worried about whether you are not the first to reach the top of the mountain and you feel anxious.”
Di Jiu touched his face awkwardly. Did it really seem so obvious?
He recalled that tens of thousands of years had passed before he’d arrived there. If someone had gone up, it would be too late even if he was anxious. Otherwise, he wouldn’t care about this short time.
Upon thinking of this, Di Jiu calmed down completely. He was no longer as eager as before and he even sat down. “It is my honor that Brother Zihen is willing to be friends with an inexperienced person like me.”
Du Zihen tutted disdainfully. “A friend is a friend. Why call me Brother? My master valued his identity too much and ended up getting plotted against.”
Di Jiu had completely changed his mentality, which he appreciated very much.
Di Jiu could feel that Du Zihen’s Dao was extraordinary and he had some kind of nomological Dao runes that he cultivated. The Dao that the two of them cultivated seemed to overlap.
“Zihen, I see that your Dao is very unusual. Your master must have been even more unusual, right? In that case, why was he plotted against?” Di Jiu asked in confusion.
Du Zihen laughed and raised his hand to take out a wine pot and two wine cups. After he poured a cup of wine for Di Jiu, he said, “Have a mouthful of this wine first. This is a long story.”
Di Jiu was no ordinary person. When his Spiritual Force landed on this wine, he knew that it was absolutely extraordinary. When the light fragrance dispersed, he could feel that his soul was clearer. Di Jiu couldn’t help but drain the contents in one gulp.
The fragrant Dao wine aura penetrated Di Jiu’s body and he instantly felt like his whole body was different. Before he could speak, he felt his physical body explode before the majestic tipsy feeling spread. This tipsy feeling made him feel indescribable ease and refreshment.
“Good wine!” After Di Jiu said that, he looked at Du Zihen in disbelief. “You actually used the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit to brew it.”
How wealthy was he to be able to brew Dao wine by using the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit?
“Ha ha… Not bad. Your body did not collapse after a cup of my wine, and you’re not even drunk. I can see that your body is simply too strong.” Du Zihen laughed and spoke while giving him a thumbs-up.
While watching Di Jiu swallow the contents in one gulp, Du Zihen had not bothered stopping him. When Di Jiu’s body collapsed, he would help Di Jiu stop it. To his surprise, after Di Jiu drank it, he only flushed before he returned to his normal state. He was shocked by his physical body.
“I will give you this pot of wine. I’ve drunk enough of it. Unfortunately, this is all I have, or I could have given you some more.” Du Zihen threw the pot in his hand at Di Jiu.
“Thank you, Zihen.” Di Jiu did not bother being polite. He knew that an ancient expert like Du Zihen definitely had a pile of good stuff. Otherwise, how could he have used the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit to brew wine?
Du Zihen also drained the contents of his wine cup in one gulp before he said hoarsely, “If my master had still been here, would there still have been so many wars in the universe? The entire universe is in disorder…”
Di Jiu, who knew who was involved in the Creation War, looked at Du Zihen in surprise. “Zihen, you said that when your master was around, there was no Creation War, right?”
Du Zijian tutted again, disagreeing with Di Jiu’s suspicion. “My master is called Du Bu. Maybe you haven’t heard of his name because you were born too late. However, I have a Junior Brother. I guess you should have heard of him. His name is Du Mo…”
“Are you one of the eight disciples of Du Bu, the Master of the Universe?” Di Jiu suddenly understood.
“Huh? You even know this?” Du Zihen grew increasingly more surprised, as not many people in the universe knew about this besides Du Mo. Plus, Du Mo definitely wouldn’t have told someone all this.
Di Jiu nodded. “I heard this from others. I heard that your master gave the eight Primordial Dao Laws to eight of his disciples so they could take charge. Because your master was too overbearing, this aroused public anger and resulted in Du Mo rebelling eventually. After your master was plotted against, Du Mo even joined forces with outsiders to plot against the disciples and kill them.”
“As expected, one shouldn’t do something if one doesn’t want people to know about it. After so many years, it can still spread everywhere.” After Du Zihen heard Di Jiu’s words, he shook his head and spoke as he laughed self-derisively.
Knowing that Du Bu would not let him off, Di Jiu said, “Your master is in control of the universe but was too overbearing. Provoking public anger was not a big deal. However, Du Mo joined forces with the outsiders and plotted against you guys. That was too much.”
In Di Jiu’s opinion, Du Zihen had been oppressed by Du Bu and had been forced to become Du Bu’s disciple.
Du Zihen sneered. “Ah Jiu, some things you see with your own eyes are not necessarily true, let alone what you hear. Forget it, it’s too cumbersome to explain this to you. I’ll tell you in the future. I have already sensed the aura on you. If my guess is right, your luck is not bad if you have encountered a Primordial Dao Law. However, I find it strange that your cultivation level can actually envelop the Primordial Dao Law. It’s really strange.”
Di Jiu was about to speak when Du Zihen waved his hand. “Ah Jiu, you don’t need to explain it to me. I can tell that there is some disagreement between you and my master, so you don’t have to tell me certain things. Since I consider you my friend, I won’t go back on my word. What happened in the past should be resolved by the people involved. Your cultivation level is too weak. I suggest you go up the mountain and reach Dao Integration. If my master sees a cultivation level like yours, he will just kill you without a word.
“After you reach the Mountain Gaze, you will see Creation Dao Rune Lakes everywhere. Don’t be blinded by them. Remember to find what belongs to you. The highest may be the best, but it may not be suitable for you. What you want is Dao Integration. Any Creation Dao Rune Lake is suitable for Dao Integration.”
Upon speaking of this, Du Zihen paused a bit and hesitated for a few seconds before adding, “Make sure to remember that getting the Primordial Dao Law does not mean that you are the master of the universe. In the past, I also had the Primordial Dao Law, but I still ended up like this. The Primordial Dao Law only became a Heaven Earth Dao law after the universe separated. You will eventually lose out if you value it too much. Du Mo definitely did not meet a good end.”
