It’s Senior Di Jue!
people with sharp eyes had started to shout on the Fairy Planet’s wall. Most of them could already see a human sprinting towards the Fairy Square in front of the frenzied demon beasts. This person was the missing Di Jue, who ranked fourth among the 10 connate experts of the Fairy Planet.

I understand now. It was Di Jue,
a lady said in realization.
He took something that should have been left untouched, which made the demon beasts go crazy. How dare he lure those frenzied demon beasts to the Fairy Square. This…


Di Jue! Change direction quickly! Do you even know what you’re doing?
Ceng Donglu shouted sternly.
Everyone glared furiously at Di Jue. It was really selfish of him to do such a shameless thing in order to escape from the demon beasts.

Alright, I’ll get out of the way…
Di Jue said before suddenly grabbing an object and throwing it towards the Fairy Planet’s wall. He flew off to the side immediately, escaping from the crazy Beast Tide.
The demon beasts stopped chasing after him. Instead, they rushed frantically towards the Fairy Planet’s wall.

He flew off…
Everyone on the Fairy Square was stunned.
It was rumored that immortal Dao cultivation techniques existed on the Fairy Planet. When cultivated to perfection, they could allow one to fly. Watching Di Jue fly felt like a dream.
If he had not been the one responsible for the Beast Tide, then everyone would have been in awe of him.

I think I saw a flying sword underneath his feet…
someone said. However, no one paid attention to him, as the boundless Beast Tide had suddenly slammed into the wall.

Deal with these demon beasts!
Ceng Donglu screamed at everyone.
Use all your strength! General Sai Jia’er, you guard the quantum space planes. If anything unexpected happens, destroy the planes immediately.

If the space planes were not destroyed in time and the Fairy Square was demolished, then the demon beasts could use them to reach the Earth.
Ceng Donglu’s voice was lost amid the Beast Tide. Laser nets were fired from the wall, yet not all the demon beasts were killed by them. A few of the most powerful beasts lunged at the fortress wall, while some of them even climbed up to the top.
Suddenly, the battle erupted and death became a common sight. The bloody scene caused some people who had never witnessed such a spectacle to start vomiting, yet no one paid any attention to them. Even the students of the Institute of Martial Arts had to walk up to the wall and kill the demon beasts along with the rest of the crowd to protect the Fairy Square.
…
Once the last throng of demon beasts had left, Di Jiu ran in the opposite direction, heading towards the deep recesses of the Fairy Planet.
His cultivation level was insufficient considering the scale of this Beast Tide. Plus, once the laser wall was activated, he would become a target, so he couldn’t go back to help.
Di Jiu could not return and sacrifice himself, knowing that he would die. He wanted to search for the mysterious cave abode mentioned at the auction house.
When his cultivation level was high enough, he would try to prevent the demon beasts from invading Earth. However, he was powerless to do so now.
The map was divided into two parts. The first part was the path drawn at the back for visualization purposes, and the second part was the original, ancient path.
Di Jiu easily found an object of reference on the map: a crescent rock underneath which was a river that had been dry for an unknown length of time.
Di Jiu followed this river. He walked for about half a day before he found a second object of reference: three ancient trees intertwined around each other.
Di Jiu stood inside the gap formed by the three ancient trees and looked over, comparing the scenery to the description on the map. There was indeed a cloud-capped mountain peak in the distance.
According to the map, the cave abode was located at the bottom of that mountain peak.
Perhaps most of the demon beasts nearby had gone to the Fairy Square, because Di Jiu reached the foot of the cloud-capped mountain peak very easily.
When he did, he finally understood why no one had managed to enter that cave abode before, as well as why there was only one cave abode in the area.
This cave abode was very eye-catching indeed. In front of Di Jiu was a flat stone path more than 10 kilometers long. As a result of the last human activities in the area, which was a long time ago, weeds and thorny vines grew between the stones of the path.
At the end of the path was a majestic door, and at the entrance of the cave abode were two huge stone pillars engraved with various totem identification markers.
Both sides of the flat stone path were filled with various skeletons. Di Jiu saw clearly a rattan wrapped around a skeleton wearing camouflage clothing.
He suddenly sighed silently. It seemed like this path was the passageway of doom. Even though all the demon beasts had left, there were still many deadly demon plants around.
After observing the place for a full hour, Di Jiu grabbed his kitchen knife. He was ready to head over and take a look, when his Spiritual Force sensed a vibration in the air.
Di Jiu immediately moved out of the way, landing in the midst of a bush. Meanwhile, he placed a simple invisibility restriction on his body.
This place was very dangerous, so Di Jiu used his Spiritual Force to remain in a constant state of vigilance. When his Spiritual Force felt a vibration, it meant that a cultivator was approaching.
In a couple of minutes, a tall man landed at the spot Di Jiu had just been at, which was the only way to enter the path.
Di Jiu was surprised to see that the man was using a flying sword. Even though Di Jiu did not use his Spiritual Force to scan him, he could see that he was a cultivator at the fourth-stage Qi Refinement realm, or even higher, who also possessed a Dharma weapon.
The man’s face looked fierce, and he had an extremely deep scar on his chin. The moment he landed on the ground, he grabbed the flying sword in his hand and used his Spiritual Force to scan the area.
It was obvious that he did not know anything about array formation restrictions, as his Spiritual Force swept across Di Jiu’s simple invisibility restriction without noticing Di Jiu.
Di Jiu thought that he would have to put in more effort in learning about array formation restrictions from now on. After checking that there was no one around, the man walked cautiously to the door of the cave abode.
Di Jiu’s eyes landed on a gray bag at the man’s waist. He suspected that it was a storage bag.
The man walked extremely carefully. Every step he took had to land on solid ground before he would take another one. He had only walked for a dozen meters, when several vines whipped towards him, giving off a faint scent of blood.
Di Jiu had predicted that this would happen. Just as he was about to observe what the man would do, the flying sword in the man’s hand transformed into several sword flares that cut the whipping vines in half. As gray-green sap splattered everywhere in the air, the scent of blood intensified.
The man cut all the vines trying to attack him easily.
I lured those beasts away. How dare a few wild vines try to block Di Jue’s path!
he grunted coldly.
Di Jiu frowned. A killing intent arose inside him as soon as he understood what this meant.
He finally understood why a Beast Tide was taking place on the Fairy Square. This fella, who had lured the beasts over, was called Di Jue…
Di Jiu recalled the female abbot at the auction mentioning that Di Jue ranked fourth among the 10 great connate warriors of the Fairy Planet. It was rumored that he had gone missing while searching for this cave abode. Who would expect that this malicious man would still be alive? His personality fit his name really well. Di Jiu wondered what method he had used to lure the demon beasts to the Fairy Square.
His objective for luring them away had obviously been gaining access to this cave abode.
Although the cave abode might be extraordinary, he had committed an immoral deed for its sake. It was important to note that, if the Beast Tide destroyed the Fairy Square, the demon beasts could find their way to Earth.
Various species of demon plants rushed out of the broad path in an attempt to prevent Di Jue from moving any farther. It was obvious that Di Jue knew a certain sword technique, as all the plants that tried to block his path were cut by his flying sword.
More than half an hour later, Di Jiu watched Di Jue enter the cave abode between the two stone pillars.
Di Jiu stood up and followed him. Although he knew some simple array formations, he unfortunately still did not know how to refine array flags, so he was unable to set up a confinement array. He could only use some confining restrictions to prevent Di Jue from escaping.
As Di Jue walking in front killed any obstructing demon plants, Di Jiu following behind him had a much easier time. In just a few minutes, Di Jiu reached the two stone pillars at the entrance of the cave abode. He made some restrictions before entering the massive cave abode.
As he stood outside the stone pillars, Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force could not enter the cave abode. However, when he walked through the pillars, he saw something he had not expected.
The cave abode was actually more like a hall. A massive hall filled with towering stone pillars and a jade coffin right in the center.
Although it had been left there for an unknown period of time, the coffin was still clean. There was not even a speck of dust on it. Even though Di Jiu was standing far away from the coffin, he could still see very well the woman of unrivaled beauty lying inside it.
The woman’s hands were crossed over her chest, her feet were bare, and she had on very little clothes. A pink sash twirled around her calf and abdomen, extending towards the side of the pillow.
Her eyes were closed tightly, obscured by her long eyelashes. The woman looked as if she was asleep. She actually looked a little familiar… After thinking for a short while, Di Jiu realized that this extremely beautiful woman was the broken statue of the Fairy Square.
Di Jue was standing beside the jade coffin with a shocked expression. Just like the other man, he had not expected that there would be a jade coffin in there.
