Joe Di fell silent. He had heard about Jaden Dai's prowess and had even witnessed it firsthand. Yet in Xavier White's eyes, Jaden Dai was still far inferior to Emperor Xander. In this world, what is truly never lacking are all kinds of geniuses.
The place Xavier White mentioned was very far away. Even with a top-grade artifact spaceship, Xavier White had to drive it at full power, flying for a full half year before finally stopping.
The spot where Xavier White stopped looked no different from the rest of the void. If there was any distinction, it was that the laws of heaven and earth here were much more blurred than elsewhere.
Joe Di cultivated the Dao of cosmic laws, so he could naturally sense it. What puzzled him was how Xavier White knew this was the weak point of the realm boundary.
"Brother Xu, how do you know the realm boundary here is weaker?" Joe Di asked Xavier White in confusion.
Xavier White smiled, "My Xu family possesses a treasure. This treasure can locate the weakest point in the void's realm boundary."
Xavier White only explained briefly before changing the subject. "Brother Di, when I activate the Realmshatter Talisman later, you must unleash Voidmount with full force."
After speaking, Xavier White didn't wait for Joe Di's reply. He directly grabbed a Realmshatter Talisman swirling with Dao rhythm and activated it at once.
Joe Di understood Xavier White's intentions very well. The guy just wanted to confirm whether Voidmount was on him. If it wasn't, Xavier White might even go back to check.
Once the Realmshatter Talisman was activated, the flow of Dao rhythm and laws intensified rapidly, to the point that even Joe Di's divine sense couldn't penetrate it. In just a few breaths, a terrifying rift explosion sounded, followed by endless Dao patterns crashing into the void. The previously untouchable void suddenly became much clearer under the talisman's Dao patterns.
This was definitely a level-seven or higher Realmshatter Talisman. Joe Di was secretly amazed—Xavier White could even produce such a talisman. He really wondered what benefits this guy had received. Instantly, he thought of Jaden Dai. That bastard could bury nine supreme-grade Dao veins beneath Surging Alchemy Hall, and even had the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram, which meant Jaden Dai had also discovered a top-tier treasure land.
The vast universe holds countless treasures. Hadn't he himself obtained the Ninth Dao Principle and the World Book?
The roar of Dao rhythm exploded, and cracks appeared in the void—so subtle that they were almost undetectable to the naked eye.
Xavier White shouted anxiously, "Brother Di, hurry and unleash Voidmount..."
Joe Di didn't summon Voidmount at all. Without any hesitation, he drew out the Tiansuo Blade. With Dao rhythm flowing, he slashed out with the blade.
He sensed the shattering laws of the cracked void. Perhaps others couldn't tear open the void behind these cracks with a single strike, but Joe Di was fully confident he could do it.
This was his Fengxiao Blade, but this strike also contained his Fist Dao divine art—Peak Gathering and Raging Waves. Besides that, there was also a kind of rule suppression.
"We need Voidmount! Without it, there's no way to tear this open..." Xavier White saw that Joe Di hadn't summoned Voidmount but instead used the Tiansuo Blade, and immediately shouted in shock and anger.
Joe Di sneered. Not only was he confident he could tear this place open, but even if he wasn't, he would never reveal the fact that Voidmount was on him to Xavier White. At least, not now.
Before reaching the second step, Joe Di would never do such a thing. If he exposed that Voidmount was in his hands now, it could very well reveal the Ninth World, or even his own Dao of rules.
Could an Immortal Emperor really refine Voidmount? Not even Jaden Dai, and certainly not Joe Di himself, believed it. In fact, he truly couldn't refine it at the time, even though he had obtained the White Jade Stele for refining Voidmount.
Since he couldn't refine Voidmount, why was it still on him? The only possibility was that he had taken it away at the time. What could carry away Voidmount? Anyone could guess—it was something that surpassed the True Spirit World, perhaps even stronger than the Five Elements World. His array arts were excellent, and Voidmount knew it. If he had a world beyond the Five Elements, he could move it with a grand array and take Voidmount away.
A trace of despair flashed through Xavier White's heart. He hadn't expected to waste a top-grade Realmshatter Talisman and still fail to test whether Joe Di had Voidmount.
The unstoppable blade momentum swept forward, slamming into the void where the Realmshatter Talisman had left cracks. The fissures instantly widened.
Before the momentum of the first strike faded, the second and third strikes followed. The void fissure grew wider and wider...
Boom! Crack...
The crack in the void finally tore open to half a zhang wide. Xavier White stared blankly at the scene before him, unable to speak for a long time.
Joe Di's blade had actually torn open the void fissure left by the Realmshatter Talisman. Was Joe Di really this powerful?
"Brother Xu, let's hurry and get out of here, or it will be too late..." Joe Di was not polite. As the void domain was torn open by the Tiansuo Blade, he instantly darted through.
Xavier White watched the shrinking crack in the void, unable to lift his foot. Joe Di hadn't summoned Voidmount—did that mean he really didn't have it?
Crack! The fissure in the void vanished once more, and Xavier White instead calmed down.
What he thought of at this moment was: if Voidmount really wasn't on Joe Di, then it must still be in the Realmrift between the two realms. If Voidmount was still in the Realmrift, and he followed Joe Di to another realm now, when would he be able to return and retrieve it?
In his eyes, nothing could compare to Voidmount.
Thinking this, Xavier White clenched his fists. He was determined to return to the Realmrift once more. Now, he suspected that there was a ninety percent chance Joe Di hadn't obtained Voidmount.
Earlier, he had been blinded by concern. If Voidmount were so easily acquired, he wouldn't have been trapped for so many years. And not just him—how many of those who once fought for Voidmount are still alive? For Joe Di to come out of the Realmrift was already an incredible stroke of luck. How could he possibly have also obtained Voidmount?
Xavier White turned resolutely and left swiftly.
......
As soon as Joe Di stepped out from the torn realm boundary, he frowned slightly. He could clearly sense that the void he was now in was almost no different from the one he had just left. In other words, the laws of heaven and earth here were much the same as where he came from.
Since they're so similar, why are there so many Unity Realm cultivators here? There's even a presence at the third step?
He'd wait for Xavier White to come over—then he'd ask him.
But Joe Di soon realized that Xavier White wouldn't be coming over. The fissure in the void had already disappeared, and there was no sign of Xavier White. If Xavier White wanted to cross, he'd have to use another Realmshatter Talisman. Even if he used another similar talisman, without Joe Di's Tiansuo Blade, he couldn't tear open the realm boundary here. Not everyone understood the laws of heaven and earth as thoroughly as Joe Di did.
What was Xavier White's intention? He waited for Joe Di for years, accompanied him on a long journey through the void, and even wasted a top-grade Realmshatter Talisman—was it all just to send Joe Di to the Void Market?
Was Xavier White really so carefree and generous? Joe Di was deeply puzzled. That couldn't be right.
Joe Di didn't think about it for long before he started to understand Xavier White's intentions. He guessed that Xavier White had likely changed his mind at the last minute.
There was only one reason: Voidmount.
Xavier White suspected that he hadn't obtained Voidmount and that it was still in the Realmrift. So, just like Jaden Dai, even if it meant wasting a talisman, he'd go back to retrieve Voidmount.
What a pity. This time, Xavier White was likely chasing shadows—Joe Di had already refined Voidmount, and it was now in his spiritual sea.
Joe Di couldn't be bothered with Xavier White anymore. He summoned his spaceship and called out Bolt and Ding Chi.
