Besides Tie Beishan, the other Sect Masters and Immortal Emperors also shifted their attention to Di Jiu and heard what Tie Beishan had asked him.

Di Jiu had swept away the Brilliant Lake Palace and gotten rid of the Thunder Emperor, which meant that he had a strong technique. If even Di Jiu had no way of dealing with this Beast Tide, they could only give up and try to flee the Thunder Court Immortal Continent.

Di Jiu said with cupped fists without hesitation, “Everyone, I am able to defeat this Beast Tide indeed…”

“Alchemy Emperor Di, please disperse this Beast Tide on behalf of the Thunder Court Immortal Continent for the sake of the righteousness of the Immortal Dao…” The Righteous Sword Sect's Sect Master, Fu Xueling, had always wanted to ask Di Jiu to dispose of the beasts. Therefore, before Di Jiu could finish, Fu Xueling bowed before him in respect and spoke with a sincere tone.

To an Immortal Emperor, as well as a Sect Master, this great etiquette already showed his extreme respect for Di Jiu.

Di Jiu gestured with his hands. “I think this won't do. Even if I disperse this Beast Tide, what about after I leave? The Beast Tide here is huge enough to destruct the Thunder Court Immortal Continent numerous times, and a top-notch great demon is leading the way. I am certain that once I leave, these demon beasts will unite once again.”

Everyone's hearts sank upon hearing that. The divine power to attack the incoming Beast Tide had already weakened a lot. It was not that Di Jiu did not want to help. It was simply impossible to get rid of this scattered Beast Tide in one go.

Di Jiu said, “I still have another way. We can get rid of all the demon beasts here at one go…”

“Brother Di, please carry on…” Numerous Sect Masters looked at Di Jiu urgently at the same time as he finished saying that.

It seemed like more and more cultivators were drowned by the Beast Tide. If the Sect Masters and Immortal Emperors had not been supporting this place, the cultivators who resisted would have already lost their will to fight.

“I'll set up a large Confinement Killing Immortal Array now and kill these demon beasts in one go. Meanwhile, I hope that all of you can hold them back and not allow them to really crush in,” Di Jiu said seriously.

He could set up the Nomological Arrays indeed and he was now setting up Nomological Array flags, extending them further with the help of his Spiritual Force. This way, he could save a huge amount of time.

“Brother Di, tell us how much time you need. I promise to block this Beast Tide!” Tie Beishan shouted out urgently. He had addressed Di Jiu directly as Brother Di instead of Alchemy Emperor Di.

“Half a day.” Di Jiu's Spiritual Force landed on the endless Beast Tide as he spoke with a sigh. He had to frantically set up Nomological Array flags in order to set up a Confinement Killing Array to kill the many void demon beasts in one go. If he did not have his Lattice Spiritual Elixir, he was certain that his Spiritual Sea would collapse from weariness and it would be impossible to complete it.

“Brother Di, I promise to lead everyone and hold on for half a day. You can set up the large arrays now. I still have materials here…” Tie Beishan's tone was hurried and did not seem hesitant at all.

He would be going against the Thunder Court Immortal Continent if he wanted to waste time at the moment. Nobody would hesitate while facing such a matter.

“I still have some here!” Numerous Immortal Emperors called out at the same time.

“I have enough.” Di Jiu rushed out from the side in a flash. The Thunder Rock under his feet transformed out sparse thunder streaks while he was setting up Nomological Array flags one after another.

He used the material to refine the array flags and set up a Confinement Killing Immortal Array. Di Jiu reckoned that he could not complete it in such a small amount of time, but luckily, his array flags were set up by a law. Even if such Nomological Array flags were partly ripped apart by divine power, he could still restore them during the first few moments.

The Primeval Thunder Rock under Di Jiu's feet threw out weak thunder streaks and the great demons did not bother him at all. They also knew how formidable he had been previously. Di Jiu seemed to be less formidable, and no great demons came over.

The intellect of a level-nine immortal demon beast was not any weaker than the intellect of a cultivator. What would Di Jiu do if they crushed all the cultivators in the Thunder Court Immortal Continent?

Led by hundreds of great demons, these void demon beasts attacked the cultivator army's front line. The Thunder Court Immortal Continent would be completely finished if they ripped apart this front line.

Upon seeing Di Jiu charge into the Beast Tide, Tie Beishan immediately started to form the cultivator army to hold back.

Out of hope, the originally-disordered cultivator army gradually formed a scale thanks to Tie Beishan's organization. Although countless cultivators were killed every moment, it was much better compared to the previous disorganized situation.

All of them were somewhat suspicious of Di Jiu's words. It was not easy setting up a Confinement Killing Immortal Array to confine all these demon beasts while facing such a close pack of them. Even if a level-nine Immortal Array Master came, he could not set it up in such a short amount of time.

No matter how suspicious they were of Di Jiu, they could only choose to believe him right now. They could not take out a second effective method. What could they do besides believe Di Jiu?

Di Jiu was not a level-nine Immortal Array Master, but an Array Dao expert that surpassed that level. The Immortal Arrays he set up were faster and faster thanks to the control of using Spiritual Force to set up Nomological Array flags within an extended range.

Di Jiu initially thought he would need at least half a day, as he wanted to let Tie Beishan work a little bit harder. This way, even if they could not hold in there for more than half a day, they could at least do it for half a day.

Di Jiu realized he underestimated himself too much while he was setting up Nomological Array flags. He practically used his Spiritual Force escape technique to surround that endless Beast Tide in just two hours. At the same time, he completed one Confinement Killing Immortal Array.

“Brother Di, we can't hold back any longer…” When Di Jiu turned back, he heard Tie Beishan, who was in a body full of blood and had lost an arm, shout miserably.

He could no longer hold them and all the Thunder Court Immortal Continent's cultivators back. Di Jiu noticed that the cultivators participating in the battle had been reduced almost by half compared to two hours ago, while the demon beasts did not seem to reduce.

It was not because the Thunder Court Immortal Continent's cultivators were not killing the demon beasts, but because there were simply too many of them.

Tie Beishan and the other Immortal Emperors and Sect Masters were all in a miserable state. There were too many level-nine great demons. One wave after another left them without a moment to rest.

The Thunder Court Immortal Continent's cultivators could no longer hold them back while the demon beasts' aura was becoming more and more valiant and had a kind of crushing momentum.

The Thunder Court Immortal Continent's cultivators paid the price, as half of them perished to hold them back for two hours. However, the remaining cultivators were definitely unable to hold the beasts back for two more hours or even half an hour.

The terrifying Beast Tide rushing forth was terrible enough. Even if none of the Thunder Court Immortal Continent's Sect Masters and Immortal Emperors retreated, or less than half of the Immortal Emperor experts perished, the will of the cultivations with a weaker cultivation level to fight was already gradually disappearing. As long as one of them fled, he reckoned the front line would completely collapse.

Once that happened, Di Jiu would not have any energy even if he wanted to encircle and kill these demon beasts.

Before Di Jiu could think carefully, all the Nomological Array flags connected into one thanks to the activation of his Spiritual Force and a huge Confinement Killing Immortal Array was set up.

Numerous cultivators could sense the pressure around them grow lighter. The endless demon beasts were all killed in large blocks by Di Jiu's Strangulation Array.

“Brother Di…” Tie Beishan looked at Di Jiu in surprise. He had not expected Di Jiu to keep his promise. In fact, he had actually planned to lead everyone away.

Tie Beishan and all the Thunder Court Immortal Continent's cultivators could sense each other's ease at the moment. They hurriedly swallowed healing elixirs and took a break for a short period of time while waiting for the movement of the next moment.

Di Jiu lifted his hands, grabbed dozens of high-grade immortal spirit meridians, and said in a clear voice, “Everyone, enter the Strangulation Array. Only kill the demon beasts. Leave the great demon beasts to the Immortal Emperors. I'll be coordinating in the large array. Get it done in the shortest amount of time possible.”

While he was controlling such a top-notch large array, even though Di Jiu's Spiritual Force exceeded the level-nine immortal force, he would not be able to hold back after a long time.

“Cultivators of the Thunder Court Immortal Continent, the Gigantic Tripod Immortal City Peace Hotel's Alchemy Emperor Di has helped us personally. We'll listen to him now and destroy the demon beasts confined in the Immortal Array as soon as possible. Otherwise, we'll be in endless trouble!” Tie Beishan, who bellowed, was the first one to charge into Di Jiu's Strangulation Array.

At any other time, even if he had wanted to show that he was not suspicious of Di Jiu, he would not have gotten into Di Jiu's Strangulation Array. However, he was very aware now that he needed to kill even more void demon beasts as soon as possible. The level-nine Confinement Killing Immortal Array that Di Jiu had set up would definitely not last long. If by any chance, Di Jiu's Strangulation Immortal Array could not hold back, the Thunder Court Immortal Continent would be destroyed.

Only by killing even more void demon beasts as soon as possible could they reduce the pressure on Di Jiu.

Tie Beishan and every other Immortal Emperor understood this crucial point and charged into the Confinement Killing Immortal Array one after another. Nobody went easy. They used their greatest divine power to kill the demon beasts.

The cultivators, who very quickly charged into Di Jiu's Confinement Killing Immortal Array, could sense that the battle was more pleasant. With the help of such an array, they would not perish in one move regardless of how strong the demon beasts were. They could rely on the Strangulation Array to get rid of those formidable demon beasts.

The large array had just been set up when the demon beasts barged it. One could imagine the pressure on Di Jiu. Even though numerous cultivators charged in and kept killing the demon beasts in large quantities, Di Jiu could only keep setting up Nomological Array flags to fill the gap in the large array, which had been ripped apart.

If he had not still had the Lattice Spiritual Elixir, Di Jiu definitely would not have held on any longer. However, even with the elixir, he might not hold on for long.
