Chapter 130: A Place To Attack

The first time Di Jiu had entered the room he had arranged a fourth-level restriction. When he sensed that the captain had some doubts about him, his feelings could not be described logically. If he had to use a specific example, it would be the fact that the captain had checked his storage bag before leaving, which had seemed completely unnecessary.

If the captain had some doubts about him, it had to be because he could not see his true cultivation level. He had cultivated by opening his Galaxy meridian, so his entire body had a vague galaxy aura. This made his cultivation level seem very vague and appear to be in the early-stage or late-stage Foundation Establishment Realm.

Di Jiu took the storage bag out again and infiltrated it with his mental strength. Di Jiu’s mental strength intensity and array formation restriction level were higher than Captain Mou’s. He only needed to quickly sweep through the bag with his mental strength to find out that something was wrong with it. His bag had been marked with a mental strength imprint.

Di Jiu’s heart sank. Captain Mou really did not have good intentions.

Although he was not afraid of taking on Captain Mou alone, he was afraid of fighting with him on the ship. Captain Mou had left a mental strength imprint on his storage bag, so it seemed like he was also interested in the Pure Heaven Saber Gold or the Glass Nacre Herb.

Perhaps Captain Mou was not sure that Di Jiu had these things, but he could easily kill a stray Foundation Establishment cultivator with an unknown background like him.

Di Jiu did not know this, but Captain Mou did not suspect him because of his vague cultivation level. However, Captain Mou believed that the fat man would not dare deceive him, which meant that Di Jiu really had the Pure Heaven Saber Gold and the Glass Nacre Herb.

If he had not suspected Di Jiu, then he would not have found anything wrong about him. However, his suspicions made Di Jiu’s pale face and trembling legs seem like an act.

Even if he was wrong, it wouldn’t matter. Di Jiu was right. He would just be killing an insignificant ant.

When he found this mental strength imprint, Di Jiu’s first thought was that it could not be moved. If it was, Captain Mou would know immediately…

However, as he thought about this, Di Jiu dispelled and stripped the mental strength imprint off without hesitation.

This mental strength imprint was too rough, so it would have been strange if he had not found it. Now that he had, he had to strip it off.

When Captain Mou had just returned to his place of residence, he felt his mental strength imprint get stripped off by Di Jiu. He immediately shook his head. It seemed like he had been mistaken. How could a small Foundation Establishment cultivator be so ambitious? Why would Fat Feng lie to him, though? Fat Feng would gain nothing by lying.

…

Di Jiu put away Captain Mou’s mental strength imprint, took out a pile of high-grade Spirit Stones and began to cultivate. The higher his cultivation level was, the more he thought that his strength was not enough.

The next few days were safe and sound, while two months passed in the blink of an eye. Thanks to the unrestricted pile of high-grade Spirit Stones, Di Jiu entered the eighth-level Foundation Establishment Realm.

He felt very happy deep down. Every time he advanced to the next level, his strength would also reach the next level. In places like the Sky Screen, the stronger one was, the safer they would be.

If he was lucky, when he reached the Sky Screen, he would probably cross the ninth-level Foundation Establishment Realm.

He still had a lot of high-grade Spirit Stones left. As he was about to continue cultivating for a while, the flying boat suddenly started shaking. Di Jiu noticed that the flying boat had stopped.

Before he could go out and ask what had happened, a dignified voice reached his ear. “Our flying boat has encountered a Beast Tide while passing through the Xiqian Mountain Range. It is impossible to move forward, so all the cultivators on the flying boat must come out and fight…”

Di Jiu quickly opened the restriction and walked out. Zheng Feisheng and the others were already outside.

When he saw Di Jiu come out, Zheng Feisheng quickly stepped forward and said, “Brother Zimo, our spaceship has come across a Beast Tide. Don’t worry, though. The flying boat that travels to the Sky Screen meets this kind of Beast Tide often. Under normal circumstances, it is not fatal. We still have to go up, though. If the flying boat has to face the monsters, anyone who does not go out to deal with them will be kicked out immediately.”

“Let’s take a look.” Di Jiu nodded, as he had not intended to stay there anyway.

“Big Brother Zimo, you must be a core disciple in your family, right?” Jing Mobing took the initiative to approach Di Jiu. Her tone was incomparably soft as she addressed him as Big Brother Zimo.

Wang Zheng’s face paled. He had been hanging out with Jing Mobing because he wanted to pursue her.

Di Jiu smiled. “Naturally. My qualifications are the best in my family, so all the family resources are reserved for me. Every time I go out, I have at least 20,000 to 30,000 high-grade Spirit Stones. However, I’ve spent too many Spirit Stones on female cultivators and used another 10,000 on this flying boat. Otherwise, I could have given you several thousand Spirit Stones. No big deal.”

“I always thought that I was rich, but compared to Brother Zimo, I am just a poor man,” Zheng Feisheng said.

“Let’s go out and see the monsters.” Di Jiu waved his hand, implying that he was not interested in talking about this any further.

Although Zheng Feisheng was a decent friend, he was obviously not someone that could be trusted with anything. Qi Qian had very little experience, so she believed everything that Zheng Feisheng said. In Di Jiu’s opinion, it would not be worthwhile to form a relationship with Wang Zheng and Jing Mobing. When they reached the Sky Screen, everyone would go their own way after all.

Ever since the incident with Zheng Feisheng, they all naturally considered Di Jiu their leader, so they followed him out to the deck.

When they reached the deck, Di Jiu realized how many monsters there were. The monsters were densely crowded from the ground to the air. They were almost everywhere. The flying boat had nearly slammed into their encirclement, so it could neither push forward nor retreat.

Even though Di Ji’s mental strength could not sweep out right now, he could still feel that some of these monsters were extremely powerful.

Actually, theirs was not the only flying boat stopped by the monsters. Two other spaceships had also stopped.

Dozens of thousands of cultivators were fighting the monsters, while several array masters were arranging Defense Arrays to assist the fighting cultivators.

A black-faced man in a smock standing on the deck of the spaceship was saying in a loud voice, “It’s normal for a flying boat going to the Sky Screen to meet a Beast Tide on the Xiqiao Mountains. However, it’s rare to encounter a Beast Tide of this scale.”

“This time, it was not just our flying boat. Two other flying boats heading to the Sky Screen were also stopped by the Beast Tide. I have already spoken with the captains of the two ships. Everyone has joined forces to deal with the beasts. No matter who you are or what you get, if you reap something while dealing with this Beast Tide, it will belong to you. Remember, don’t break out of the Defense Array alone. If you know anyone, try to team up with them. I can only say so much. Let’s do this!”

As the man in the smock finished speaking, countless cultivators on the deck rushed towards the herd of monsters.

Di Jiu shook his head silently. This group was completely unorganized. Although he did not lead an army, he was a gatekeeper. When facing such a large herd, going in as a crowd was the worst strategy. There were dozens of thousands of cultivators there, so everyone had to move according to certain rules. If they attacked the weakest points of the beasts, the Beast Tide would fluctuate and the beasts would be beaten easily.

If Di Jiu took the lead, he would order everyone to form a Strangulation Array. Meanwhile, thousands of cultivators would turn into dragons and enter the Beast Tide to kill the beasts. This way, the cultivators would also be able to take care of each other.

Although the man in the smock was an Essence Soul cultivator, his fighting strategy was mentally handicapped.

“Brother Zimo, let’s team up together.” Zheng Feisheng looked longingly at Di Jiu.

In this place, the stronger one’s teammates were, the safer one was. Di Jiu was obviously the strongest person among them.

Di Jiu waved his hand. “I will not team up with you. I am stronger, so I may be rushing up to the front. If I team up with you, I might get you in harm’s way.”

Although Zheng Feisheng and the rest of the group seemed disappointed, Di Jiu just straightened up indifferently and rushed forward with the crowd.

He did not team up with Zheng Feisheng and the others because he really did not want to harm Zheng Feisheng. He was sure that the fat manager would not pass up such an opportunity. If Zheng Feisheng and the others were with him, he’d have no energy to take care of them, so he would endanger Zheng Feisheng’s life.

Besides, there was also Captain Mou, who might be able to attack him now. He had to guard himself against these dangerous people.

The fat manager wanted to kill him, and Di Jiu wanted to kill the fat manager. The Glass Nacre Herb and Pure Heaven Saber Gold were not trivial things. If the Essence Soul cultivator found out about them, he would be dead.

However, he could not tell Zheng Feisheng about this. If he did, it would mean that he was not afraid of the Golden Core cultivator. How many Foundation Establishment cultivators were not afraid of Golden Core cultivators? The most famous one was probably Di Jiu himself, who had killed more than two Golden Core cultivators of the Qi Family.
