“I also plan to cultivate on the ninetieth floor of the earth for a while.” Ling Isoxiao also took the initiative to say.
“What do you three think?” Di Jiu turned his gaze towards Xuanyuan Kong, Le Qiongyu and Su Bai.
Seeing Di Jiu’s gaze over, Xuan Yuan Kong, Le Qiong Yu and Su Bai all nodded their heads, obviously all wanting to cultivate on the ninetieth floor for a period of time.
Originally, to them, the most precious layer in the Five Continents Dao Tower was the sixty-ninth layer, as the sixty-ninth layer was for condensing divine thoughts, but unfortunately, they could not compete for those nine futons.
For a cultivator, the strength of the divine thoughts and the size of the sea of consciousness, that was directly related to a cultivator’s developmental future and potential.
Originally, they thought they had no chance, but they never expected to meet a Di Jiu who possessed the Five Continents Dao Disc. If they could go to the ninetieth floor to condense their divine thoughts and expand their sea of consciousness, who would want to stay on the sixty-ninth floor?
Di Jiu was originally planning to go to the same level as these few people, to go to the ninetieth level to condense divine thoughts, now that everyone was saying this, he said after a moment of contemplation, “Originally I was planning to go to the hundredth level to cultivate, although I am the captain, I also have to consider everyone’s needs, let’s go to the ninetieth level to condense divine thoughts.”
Di Jiu’s words made everyone very satisfied, Di Jiu was now the captain, if he didn’t agree, even if everyone made a scene, it would be a slap on the wrist. In fact all the people here wanted to use the Five Continents Dao Plate to go to the topmost level of the Five Continents Dao Tower, no one was willing to get into trouble with Di Jiu.
Even Ling Yixiao, who was not very happy with Di Jiu before, had changed his opinion of Di Jiu because of his understanding. He was not satisfied with Di Jiu, not because of anything else, but because he looked down on a casual cultivator like Di Jiu.
As a genius disciple from a nine-star sect, how could he take a casual cultivator like Di Jiu seriously? If Di Jiu didn’t have a Five Continents Dao Disc, he wouldn’t even look at him even if he knelt down in front of him.
“Everyone, I have one more small question to ask.” Di Jiu took the opportunity to say with a cupped fist.
Xuan Yuan Kong said boldly, “Fellow Daoist Di, we are considered brothers out there, so if you have anything to say, just say it directly. When you asked for spirit stones before, you weren’t such a mother-in-law.”
“Good, I want to ask, how can I find out my divine thought level?” Di Jiu estimated that his divine thought level should not be low, but unfortunately, he had no idea what level his divine thought was at.
Hearing Di Jiu’s words, Xuan Yuankong and the others looked at each other. Seeing the sympathy in Le Qiongyu’s eyes, Di Jiu somewhat doubted if he had said the wrong thing.
“Hahahaha ……” A few breaths of time pa*sed before Xuan Yuankong laughed out loud, “Fellow Daoist Di, I’m sure you came out of some small nook. After cultivating to the elemental soul, you must open the knowledge sea base to know the level of divine thoughts. Usually the big clans can open the Sense Sea Foundation themselves.”
So that was how it was, no wonder I hadn’t heard of this in the Extreme Night Continent. There were only a few cultivators above the Yuan-Soul level in the Extreme Night Continent, right?
Without waiting for Di Jiu to ask how to open the Sea of Knowledge Foundation, Xuanyuan Kong continued, “Small sects or casual cultivators basically go to the guild to open the Sea of Knowledge Foundation. There are three or four places to open the Knowledge Sea Foundation in Wu Lu City, one of the better ones is the Tian Ji Pavilion’s guild branch in Wu Lu City, and there is also the Wu Lu Pavilion which can also open the Knowledge Sea Foundation.”
“How many spirit stones does this require?” Di Jiu asked.
Xuanyuan Kong smiled heatedly, “It depends on your financial resources, opening the Sense Sea Foundation is based on the medicinal materials. There are two options to go to the guild to open the knowledge sea foundation, one is to bring your own medicinal herbs over and pay a certain amount of spirit stones, usually priced according to the medicinal herbs you bring, at least 100,000 or more spirit stones are needed. Another one is to have the guild provide the spirit medicine, this price is based on the price of the spirit medicine you choose.”
Di Jiu thought of Fu Che and the others, and he was sure that Fu Che and the others, like him, hadn’t opened the Sense Sea Base. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have used the Baying Night Lake to check their divine thought level.
“Then what are the benefits of opening the Sense Sea Foundation?” Di Jiu continued to ask, he didn’t have a master and was equal to not having joined a sect, so how could he know about opening the Sense Sea Foundation?
Xuan Yuan Kong pointed to his own eyebrow, “After opening the Sense Sea Foundation, when cultivating techniques, one can have a clearer idea of the direction of one’s efforts, as well as choose techniques that are more suitable for oneself. Moreover, when a cultivator opens the Sense Sea Foundation for the first time, he can also use medicinal herbs to raise his divine thought level by a large margin. I’ve heard that one of the strongest cultivators, when he opened the Sense Sea Foundation with top-notch medicinal herbs, allowed his divine thoughts to rise by two levels.”
“If you don’t open the Sense Sea Foundation, you can also automatically sense your divine thought level when it reaches level seven.” On the side, Le Qiongyu couldn’t help but say something.
Xuanyuan Kong nodded, “Right, if you want to be able to wait, then when you wait until divine Sense Level Seven, you will know your divine Sense Level without having to open the divine Sense Dao Base. But Divine Numinous Level Seven is not easy to reach, and some weaker cultivators of Transformation Truth do not necessarily have Divine Numinous Level Seven.”
Di Jiuyi clasped his fist and said, “Thank you all for clearing up the confusion.”
Going to open the divine Numinous Dao base with the help of the guild was something that was absolutely impossible for Di Jiu. His Sea of Consciousness secret was too big, and no matter if opening the Sea of Consciousness Foundation would expose his Sea of Consciousness, Di Jiu was not willing to take the risk.
Di Jiu didn’t even know about the Sea of Consciousness foundation, and everyone was more than aware that Di Jiu should be a casual cultivator from a small place.
The group of six started to pound towards the ninetieth layer, as Di Jiu would cultivate for an hour at each layer. Every layer after the 80th layer was dense with spiritual energy and clear rules. So when they reached each layer, all of them would seize the time to cultivate frantically with the help of this one hour.
When the six of them reached the eighty-seventh floor, they actually saw a person on the eighty-seventh floor.
It was an extremely young looking cultivator with fair skin indistinguishable from a woman, a pair of danfeng eyes, inverted eight eyebrows, extremely thin lips and also carrying a sword. Unlike Di Jiu, his sword had a sheath and was not embellished with a red ta*sel. The sheath emits a burst of fierce aura and one wonders how many people he has killed.
When Di Jiu was studying medicine, he had also learnt some facial expressions. Faces such as this young cultivator’s, especially the knife-sharp inverted eight eyebrows, showed that this young man was a fellow with a very selfish personality and not much of a temper, the kind of person he was not willing to talk much to.
“It looks like you should have mastered a means to actually be able to have six people up here at the same time.” The young cultivator’s gaze swept past Di Jiu and the other six people and said before dropping his gaze on Di Jiu.
Di Jiu didn’t want to be nosy and said directly, “Everyone gather in a circle and cultivate.”
“For the sake of you being able to climb up to the eighty-seventh floor in the Five Continents Dao Tower, destroy your sword and not be allowed to use it in the future, and I can spare your life.” The young cultivator stared at Di Jiu and said slowly.
Di Jiu looked at the youth speechlessly, “You’re sick, aren’t you?”
“He is sick, and not too sick.” Xuan Yuan Kong laughed and grabbed his flying star axe with his open hand, “Your grandpa Xuan Yuan is going to use his sword even after he goes out from here, what can you do to me?”
The youth looked at Xuanyuan Kong and said indifferently, “Xuanyuan Kong of the Kun Clan, eighty-third on the Sea Ranking, that’s not bad. But to fight me, you don’t have the qualifications yet. On the contrary, your Kun Clan’s Ju Qi is qualified to fight me.”
Xuan Yuan Kong laughed loudly once again, “A mere layer of the Sea Breaking Realm dares to say that I am not qualified to fight you, I, Xuan Yuan Kong, will see if your strength is as strong as your mouth today.”
The Flying Star Axe was about to be sacrificed, but it was stopped by Di Jiu. In fact, if it was Ling Yixiao who had fought this youth, Di Jiu would definitely not have stopped him. Di Jiu was certain that whether Xuanyuankong beat his opponent or not, this fight would definitely be teleported out.
These basic laws of his were not yet able to shelter Xuanyuankong from fighting here, and he still had a good impression of Xuanyuankong, which was why he stopped him.
“Count yourself lucky, I’ll settle the score with you when we get out.” Xuan Yuankong understood why Di Jiu stopped him, it was about his future potential, he naturally did not roundly intend to be teleported out on the 87th floor.
The youth’s gaze fell on Di Jiu and said indifferently, “My name is Ji Hongchuan, after the Five Continents Dao Tower is over, I will wait for you at the Five Continents Square, I hope I won’t see you carrying a sword again, you don’t deserve it.”
After saying these words, Ji Hongchuan turned around and walked away, towards the light steps leading to the eighty-eighth floor.
“Hey, that Ji something, you wait oh.” Di Jiu called out to Ji Hongchuan.
Ji Hongchuan stopped and turned back to stare at Di Jiu coldly, his eyes had no temperature in them, no indifference or sarcasm as well, only a sense of entitlement. It was as if everything he said was as it should be.
“May I ask you one thing?” Di Jiu grinned, looking at his sunny smile, it seemed that the matter he was asking was not a big deal.
Ji Hongchuan’s tone was still warmless as he said, “Yes.”
“If you don’t pretend, will you die?” Di Jiu asked seriously.
Ji Hongchuan was at the first level of the Sea Pioneer Realm, but this was the Five Continents Dao Tower, if this guy really wanted to fight, Di Jiu decided to drive this guy out of the Five Continents Dao Tower, and as for what happened afterwards, let’s talk about it outside.
Ji Hongchuan somewhat couldn’t understand the first half of Di Jiu’s sentence, the second half he understood, he still said calmly, “No.”
After answering, he took one step and stepped into the light steps leading to the eighty-eighth floor.
“I don’t think so, you’ll definitely die.” The moment he stepped onto the light steps, Di Jiu’s words reached his ears.
“Brother Di Jiu, what does it mean to act tough?” Xuan Yuankong was so grateful to Di Jiu for advising him not to make a move that he even changed his title to brother. He wasn’t afraid of Ji Hongchuan, he was worried that he wouldn’t have the chance to go to the ninetieth floor.
Di Jiu gave Xuan Yuankong a pat and said, “Alas, this is a long lost divine ability, I was just getting started back then in Pearl City, and now I’m all rusty. But I felt this divine ability aura on that Ji Hongchuan just now, so I was worried, that’s why I asked him about it. Well, let’s hurry up and cultivate, and deal with this guy when we get out.”
“Right, go out and deal with this mole again.” Xuan Yuankong responded with great displeasure.
