Chapter 137: A Terrifying Existence

“Although this person’s cultivation level is definitely lower than the Golden Core Realm, he was still able to kill a ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator on the spot. Even though this was a sneak attack with his large hammer, his real strength should not be lower than the early-stage Golden Core Realm…” a late-stage Golden Core cultivator watching Di Jiu’s disappearing shadow from the Sky Screen border said in amazement.

After he finished speaking, he seemed to feel something, so he unconsciously looked at the Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor.

Who else would be able to kill a Golden Core cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Realm besides the daring Di Jiu? He was now 90% sure that the Foundation Establishment cultivator who had just entered was the person who had robbed several branches of the Qi Family’s Commercial Buildings. It was Di Jiu!

There were two reasons he believed this. Firstly, this guy could kill a Golden Core cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Realm, and there were only two people who could do this in the Polar Night Continent. The first one, who had appeared thousands of years ago, was supposed to be the galaxy ancestor of the Galaxy Sect. Even if the galaxy ancestor was still alive, he would be very old, so it would be impossible for him to enter the Sky Screen.

Secondly, this guy had lost his dharma hammer in order to kill his opponent. It was impossible for a cultivator to discard his dharma treasure unless he had no choice. However, Di Jiu’s decision to kill the Sea Union Foundation Establishment cultivator had not been a last resort. He had obviously intended to do this. In addition, Di Jiu’s real dharma treasure was a saber weapon, so he was sure that this arrogant Foundation Establishment cultivator was Di Jiu.

This cultivator’s courage seemed to be greater than the heavens. He was just a small Foundation Establishment cultivator, yet not only had he robbed several of the Qi Family’s Commercial Buildings, but he had even dared to enter the Sky Screen in front of the Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor.

These incidents aside, this fellow had also stopped and killed a Sea Union ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator before entering the Sky Screen. Wasn’t this something more powerful than arrogance? Did this guy really not know that he could die?

Even though his Foundation Establishment was so powerful as to kill a Golden Core cultivator, he was still just a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

“Yin, I heard from Huan Qi that the Foundation Establishment nobody that killed the Sea Union’s member was the one who ridiculed you. Is that true?” a small-eyed woman who had watched Di Jiu rush into the Sky Screen asked, her tone filled with killing intent.

The small-eyed woman was Yuan Jie, the late-stage Essence Soul Expert of the True Li Sword Sect.

The beautiful female cultivator standing next to her was Qin Yin, Yuan Jie’s proudest disciple. Although she was only in her twenties, she had already attained the third-level Foundation Establishment Realm.

“It’s him, Master. He did not ridicule me, though. He just said a few words of contempt,” Qin Yin replied quickly.

When she had seen Di Jiu kill the Sea Union’s ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator with one hammer move, she had been even more shocked.

She had never seen a Foundation Establishment cultivator as strong as Di Jiu. Given Di Jiu’s strength, he definitely had not hidden in the big hall to avoid a disaster. What she didn’t understand was why Di Jiu had not continued to harass her.

“You go in and stay away from that cultivator. If he dares bother you, then you will give him a direct warning. I will wait here for him to come out…” Yuan Jie stopped speaking half-way.

The warning of a seventh-level Essence Soul Expert like her would have been effective against anyone. However, it would be useless against Di Jiu. He was not even afraid of the Qi Family, or even killing a Sea Union ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator in front of the Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor and the Sea Union Sect Master. Therefore, why would he be afraid of the threat of a seventh-level Essence Soul Expert like her?

“You don’t have to worry, Master. I provoked him earlier, but I won’t provoke him again. I will enter first,” Qin Yin said before she grabbed her Sky Screen card and rushed into the Sky Screen.

The face of the Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor turned green. Even a Golden Core cultivator could have seen that the person who had entered was Di Jiu.

So what if Di Jiu had entered the Sky Screen, though? Even though he was an Essence Soul Expert, all he could do was stare. There was nothing else he could do.

The first condition for entering the Sky Screen was being under 100 years old. He was a fourth-stage Essence Soul Expert, so he was way past 100.

The Sea Union Sect Master, who was a perfected Golden Core cultivator and a half-step Essence Soul Expert, had also just arrived. Di Jiu had killed a Sea Union ninth-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator in front of him, which had made him tremble in anger. However, when his eyes swept past the Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor, he suddenly calmed down.

The Sea Union had undoubtedly offended Di Jiu, who was not even afraid of the Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor. If he had killed a Foundation Establishment cultivator and entered the Sky Screen in front of the Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor, why would he care about the Sea Union?

Although he was only at the Foundation Establishment Realm, he was already really frightening. Once he reached the Golden Core Realm, the Sea Union would be nothing compared to him. Given his qualifications, after entering the Sky Screen, he would attain the Golden Core Realm with practically no effort. Besides, he was extremely revengeful. Ever since the Qi Family had issued an arrest warrant for him, he had destroyed 7 to 8 more branches of their business, as well as the headquarters of the Qi Family’s Commercial Building in the northern province. It was rumored that he had also robbed the Qi Family of a precious treasure.

He did not know that Di Jiu did not want to destroy the Qi Family because of the arrest warrant, but because they had crossed the line. The Qi Family had killed Yu Jingyan, who had shown great kindness to Di Jiu and Geng Jihua, and wiped out the Tress Tranquil Village, which was Geng Jihua’s hometown. Although Di Jiu was weak now, if he got stronger, he would flatten all of the Qi Family’s Commercial Buildings without a second thought.

When the master of the Sea Union realized this, his heart went cold. He immediately decided to stop the people of the Sea Union from taking revenge on Di Jiu.

The Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor looked at the dozens of people gathered around and said, “This time, a total of 37 people from the Qi Family’s Commercial Building have entered the Sky Screen, including 7 Golden Core cultivators. Di Jiu has certainly not reached the Golden Core Realm yet. Every time he launched an attack on one of the Qi Family’s Commercial Buildings, it was always a sneak attack. If you meet this person alone, don’t pay attention to him. You can find a way to form a team and launch a sneak attack on him together. Once he becomes a Golden Core cultivator, you should try to avoid him at any cost. I will deal with him in the future…”

Bam! A big foot suddenly fell in front of the Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor. As dust exploded around him, the cultivators of the Qi Family saw a blue-haired, eccentric young man.

“Who are you?” The Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor was shocked to realize that he could not sense his cultivation level.

The blue-haired young man ignored the Essence Soul Ancestor completely, raised his hand and grabbed a Qi Family cultivator who was at the first-stage Foundational Establishment Realm.

The Qi Family’s Essence Soul Ancestor immediately stepped forward and said, “This is my friend…”

He had only said a couple of words, when a huge handprint slapped against him. The surrounding space seemed to be completely controlled by this handprint. The Essence Soul Ancestor suddenly turned cold, while his heart filled with fear.

What cultivation level was this? Why was it so terrifying?

Boom! As a bloody fog exploded, the Qi Family’s fourth-level Essence Soul Ancestor had no chance of resisting. He was smashed into pieces by the blue-haired, eccentric young man with one slap. Then, the blue-haired young man caught a second-stage Foundational Establishment Cultivator and vanished.

All the cultivators around were silent. What kind of strength was this? If one slap could kill a fourth-level Essence Soul Ancestor, then this was simply…

Even the only Void Spirit Realm Cultivator around turned white. He was sure that facing this eccentric young man would be a dead end.

None of them had known that there was such a terrifying existence in the Polar Night Continent.

…

Di Jiu assumed that after he’d killed the Sea Union Cultivator, the Qi Family must have noticed his presence. However, he did not care. Those Sea Union Cultivators had blocked his way out of the big hall for a day. If he didn’t kill at least one of them, they would think that he was easy to bully. It was just a Sea Union Cultivator, so he was completely unlike the Qi Family’s Cultivators.

As soon as he entered the twisted Sky Screen, Di Jiu felt like his body was no longer controlled by him. It actually felt as if he was involved in a terrifying, centrifugal movement. He was continually swept away and dropped in the constant transformation of a new dimension. Every time he felt like he was going to fall to pieces, another dimension took him away.

He did not know how much time passed before he landed loudly on a pile of pebbles. When he felt a burst of pain on his back, Di Jiu climbed up in surprise.

He sensed an extremely rich Spirit Qi, richer even than the Spirit Qi coming from the big pile of Spirit Stones…

This was not right. Di Jiu soon realized that there seemed to be no heaven and earth law when cultivating Spirit Qi there. Even though the Spirit Qi was enough, it was impossible to cultivate.

Di Jiu’s understanding of cultivation was better than most cultivators’. Thus, he quickly realized that this was because there was no heaven and earth law.

It was impossible to cultivate if there was no law.

Di Jiu was not that disappointed, as he knew that the gray stone with the golden lightning in his sea of knowledge had a strong law aura.

He tried to communicate with the gray stone during his cultivation, so the Spirit Qi that could not be absorbed was completely converted into Quintessential Essence.

Di Jiu surprisingly stopped cultivating. He had not just gone to the Sky Screen to cultivate. Given his current strength, there was no need for him to cultivate until a certain realm in order to go out and look for things.

When visiting a new place, one should look for treasure as soon as possible. Anyone who was late would not find anything good.

Di Jiu began to use the mental strength escape technique in the Sky Screen. After learning the technique, he had initially not dared use it more than once. However, now that he had the law, he naturally had to practise more.

When he cast his mental strength escape technique, Di Jiu’s mental strength would stretch to the extreme. He could now see everything within his mental strength clearly.

This way, he could practise the mental strength escape technique or make money in the Sky Screen. The only drawback was that this was tiring.
