Ninth in The World - Chapter 131

Chapter 131

When Di Jiu rushed out, his Spiritual Force sensed that a Golden Core cultivator was shadowing him . This Golden Core cultivator was accompanied by the fat manager and the fella at the ninth-stage Foundation Establishment Realm .

Di Jiu was relieved . He had been afraid that the fat man would not come out . As long as he did, he was scared of nothing .

Di Jiu had obtained many good items from the Qi Family’s Commercial Building, so he was currently wearing a full-body, supreme-grade armor . Armor was the best item to use when dealing with this kind of Beast Tide .

“What is this person trying to do?” asked the Golden Core cultivator shadowing Di Jiu when he saw Di Jiu rush out to the front line .

Although no one dared stay on the flying boat, anyone who went out was not foolish enough to rush up to the front .

“He is probably relying on his own strength to stand out,” said the ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator hesitantly .

The fat manager sneered . “This guy is definitely not someone who likes to stand out…”

Then, he stopped speaking . Although he believed that Di Jiu did not like to stand out, it seemed like Di Jiu’s motive for helping Zheng Feisheng out had been to stand out . He had investigated and discovered that Di Jiu and Zheng Feisheng were not that close . They had just teamed up after meeting on the road .

“Regardless of whether he wants to stand out, let’s use this opportunity to kill him and take the corpse,” grunted the Golden Core cultivator .

Di Jiu’s motives and actions did not matter to him . He would just be easy prey for a Golden Core cultivator like him .

Di Jiu grabbed a pair of octagonal hammers and rushed to the front line . He immediately hit two Level-One Peak five-legged wolves, saving a cultivator at the perfected Qi Refinement Realm .

“Thank you, sir…” the cultivator thanked Di Jiu before leaving swiftly .

Di Jiu laughed and said arrogantly, “Anyone with a low cultivation level, move out of the way . I’m a Foundation Establishment Expert . Let me do this . ”

“Yes, yes…” Everyone liked people like Di Jiu during a Beast Tide .

The Qi Refinement Realm cultivator saw Di Jiu rush into the mass of demon beasts while waving his hammers around like crazy and smashing some low-level demon beasts .

“This man is really earnest . ” The Qi Refinement Realm cultivator Di Jiu had saved sighed and shook his head .

The first type of people to die in a Beast Tide were people like Di Jiu . However, it was precisely because these sort of people existed that someone would always rush to the front .

Although Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force was very powerful, he was no fool . It might look like he was killing demon beasts like crazy, but the number of demon beasts he killed was actually not high . The places where he went were mostly occupied by level-one demon beasts . He would not have headed over if there had been slightly more level-two demon beasts .

Di Jiu had read many jade slips about demon beasts, so he knew very well how to not attract the attention of high-level demon beasts, even if he went deep into a crowd of beasts . What he should not do was kill or injure too many demon beasts .

If he killed too many of them or attacked a large range of demon beasts, the high-level demon beasts would notice him quickly . Even though he was currently amid a crowd of level-one demon beasts, he was still very safe . If he used his full strength, he’d be able to clear off all the level-one demon beasts around him . The reason he did not kill them off immediately, and instead killed them off slowly one by one, was because he needed time . He was waiting for the fat manager to bring his people over to try to surround and kill him .

“Detain him! I will kill this weakling as fast as I can,” said the Golden Core cultivator beside the fat manager in a low voice when he saw that Di Jiu had been trapped by a group of level-one demon beasts .

“Alright . ” The fat manager signalled to the ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator by his side . The two of them rushed towards Di Jiu in a pincer attack .

Two Foundation Establishment cultivators like them might not have an easy time dealing with a big group of demon beasts . However, they were not in danger when they entered the crowd of level-one demon beasts .

Di Jiu had already used his Spiritual Force, so he had sensed that the fat manager and the ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator were approaching . However, he kept frantically swinging his hammers in turns and attacking the demon beasts .

Although he did not really take the Golden Core cultivator seriously, he was slightly more concerned about him . Still, he was only a mere second-stage Golden Core cultivator . Di Jiu had killed a sixth-stage Golden Core cultivator when he had been at the fourth-stage Foundation Establishment Realm, so it should not be hard for him to deal with this Golden Core cultivator .

“Where will you hide now, punk?” The fat manager moved behind Di Jiu, unscrupulously taking out a metal hook before grabbing him .

There was no need to act cautiously at a place like this .

Meanwhile, the ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator grabbed a Kun Cloud Saber 1 and slashed in the direction of Di Jiu’s escape route .

The two of them had thought that after the fat man sneaked an attack on Di Jiu, Di Jiu would surely retreat in the opposite direction and the ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would detain him .

Actually, they were not the main attacking power . That was the Golden Core cultivator that would come over when Di Jiu was detained .

Unfortunately, the two of them had overestimated themselves and underestimated Di Jiu, who did not retreat after the fat manager’s attack . Instead, the hammer in his hand transformed into a giant peak and smashed at the fat manager with a roar .

The powerful aura crushed him . The fat manager even found it difficult to breathe . He was really astonished . He had tried his best not to underestimate Di Jiu, yet he had not expected that he would not even have the ability to fight back against him .

While the hammer smashed towards him, Di Jiu would be killed by his companion . However, this was meaningless to him, as he would be killed as well . The fat manager would not benefit from this situation .

Suddenly, the fat man felt regretful . He never would have thought that Di Jiu would be so reckless . This move had put his own safety at risk .

The fat manager was a mere third-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, so he could not escape from that hammer, which now contained a little Gathering Peaks’ fist intent .

After smashing this hammer, Di Jiu used his other hammer to smash at the ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator .

If the Golden Core cultivator had stayed where he was, Di Jiu would have killed the fat man and the ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator in a few moments .

However, the Golden Core cultivator attacked Di Jiu, who abandoned the two hammers and took out a saber with a broad blade .

As the saber aura struck, limitless saber shadows rushed at the second-stage Golden Core cultivator like waves .

The Golden Core cultivator attacking Di Jiu immediately sensed that something was amiss . Di Jiu’s limitless saber shadows split a level-one demon beast into two like paper . The saber ripples in his Spiritual Force became even more vigorous before transforming into inordinate wave ripples .

Di Jiu had not been affected by the sneak attacks of the two Foundation Establishment cultivators . The second-stage Golden Core cultivator was so terrified that he dared not underestimate Di Jiu anymore . Di Jiu was definitely not a Foundation Establishment cultivator . His true Dharma treasure was not those hammers, but the saber .

Suddenly, a pitch black flute was taken out and a scary sound echoed in the surrounding area .

Di Jiu’s saber shadow ripples shook amid this sound, as if they were about to disintegrate .

The Golden Core cultivator did not feel any joy, though . He was certain that the power of this flute was incomparable to Di Jiu’s saber shadow ripples .

The Quintessential Essence in him boiled, frantically trying to escape from the range of Di Jiu’s saber shadow attack .

Bam, bam, bam! Waves and waves of saber shadow ripples flowed over and slammed into the Golden Core cultivator . The protective layer of Quintessential Essence around the Golden Core cultivator was torn open right away .

The Golden Core cultivator let out a sigh of relief . The ripples might have created numerous wounds on his body, but they were not serious enough to take his life .

He had to flee!

This was the only thought on the Golden Core cultivator’s mind . His exchange of blows with Di Jiu had scared him . He had indeed looked down on Di Jiu . However, even if he had not, he would still have been at a disadvantage .

Crack, crack, crack! As the Golden Core cultivator let out a sigh of relief, several scary killing intents separated from the saber shadow and slammed into his body . The killing intents then rushed into him and exploded inside his body and meridians .

His bones and meridians shattered as his life-force seeped away . The Golden Core cultivator looked at Di Jiu helplessly . He had finally understood that Di Jiu was indeed a Foundation Establishment cultivator instead of a Golden Core cultivator . However, this was the first time he had seen such a frightening Foundation Establishment cultivator ever since he had started cultivating .

No, this was not right . There was actually another frightening Foundation Establishment cultivator . He suddenly recognized Di Jiu and pointed at him . “I see… You are…”

Di Jiu realized that he had been recognized as the cultivator the Qi Family was after . However, this did not matter anymore . The broad-bladed saber in his hand twisted and the cultivator’s storage bag landed in his palm right after the cultivator was killed .

Boom! Another explosion was heard . The ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator had blocked Di Jiu’s hammer after watching it smash and kill the fat manager . Then, he had seen Di Jiu’s saber chop off the head of the Golden Core cultivator who had been on their side .

They had chosen the wrong target . The ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator did not care about his own injuries . He just turned frantically around with the intention of escaping .

“Are you thinking of leaving?” Di Jiu crossed over more than 10 low-level demon beasts and stopped the Foundation Establishment cultivator from escaping with a punch .

It was impossible to spare a life right now .

“Don’t attack me! I surrender! I could give you a treasure…” The Foundation Establishment cultivator was terrified . Unfortunately for him, Di Jiu’s fist move could not be stopped even if he took out the treasure he was speaking of .

Bam! The Foundation Establishment cultivator was turned into a bloody mist by Di Jiu’s fist move .
