Qin Di returned to Heavenly Star Island and continued his closed-door cultivation. He refined eight peak Foundation Establishment Pills in one go, each with four pill inscriptions. Then, he stopped.
It was already September, the season for Heavenly Star Crabs to mature.
Heavenly Star Crabs were huge crabs. Because they grew in the Tongtian River, they were nourished by Spiritual Energy. Like the Golden Spear Spirit Fish, they had a strong nourishing effect on cultivators' bodies.
A Rank 1 Heavenly Star Crab was only four inches long, a Rank 2 was eight inches, and a Rank 3 was one foot and two inches.
Rank 4 Heavenly Star Crabs were very rare, but some appeared this year.
Perhaps due to the Spirit Veins on the island, the production of Heavenly Star Crabs was twice as high as before.
Qin Di could not be bothered to send them off. He sent a message to Sect Master Tie Zhenren, asking him to send people to catch them.
At the same time, he sent a message to Zhuang Yunqing, telling her that the Foundation Establishment Pills were ready and to come and pick them up when she was free.
Not long after the message was sent, Zhuang Yunqing arrived. She sent a message from the sky, "Qin Shidi, I can't find Heavenly Star Island!"
Qin Di opened a corner of the control disk and guided her down from the sky. At the same time, he called Miao Yunjuan and Jiang Yunmu over to catch Heavenly Star Crabs.
No matter what, Heavenly Star Crabs were considered spirit beasts. They could fly and had great offensive power.
A Rank 3 Heavenly Star Crab was equivalent to a human Qi Refinement Consummation cultivator. It was not easy to deal with. A Rank 4 Heavenly Star Crab was equivalent to a human early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. Fortunately, Qin Di was here. If it were an ordinary Qi Refinement disciple, they would not be able to deal with it.
Qin Di could not be bothered to use his treasure sword to kill them one by one. After killing them, he would be drenched in blood.
He took out the God Suppressing Pagoda and walked around the mudflat. When he turned around, all he spat out were silly Heavenly Star Crabs. He even forgot to attack.
Jiang Yunmu was in charge of putting the Heavenly Star Crabs into the storage bag. There were about two hundred of them in total.
Miao Yunjuan shouted, "Enough! Enough! There will be new crabs coming next year. It's not like this is the only time. "
Then, they returned to their residence and found a big pot.
Qin Di personally cut a few one-foot-long crabs into small pieces, mixed them with onion and ginger juice, cooking wine, salt, and pepper, and marinated them for a while. Then, he sprinkled some starch, sprinkled some chili, and steamed them in the pot for about ten minutes. When it was done, he took them out and poured hot onion oil over them.
Finally, when the dishes were served, they could start eating.
Jiang Yunmu took the first bite and exclaimed, "Wow, it's so delicious! Brother Qin, this smell is amazing! "
Miao Yunjuan also nodded. "I didn't expect the Star Crab to taste so delicious!"
Zhuang Yunqing praised as he ate, "The island that the three of you are stationed on is really nice. There are loquat fruits in summer and Heavenly Star Crabs in autumn. There is also such rich Spiritual Qi. It's like a paradise on earth!"
Qin Di smiled and said, "Not only does this island have the Wood Vein and Earth Vein, there is also a medium-sized Metal Vein. If Senior Sister is willing, you can also come to Heavenly Star Island to build your foundation! "
Miao Yunjuan also said, "That's right, it's just a little lonely. Qin Shidi is always in closed-door cultivation, and Ah Mu only knows how to plow the land. I don't even have someone to talk to. If only Senior Sister Zhuang came! "
Zhuang Yunqing asked, "Qin Shidi, have you finished refining the Foundation Establishment Pills?"
"That's right, I prepared two for Senior Sister. Each of them is a rare treasure, and they have Grass of Immortality in them. Logically speaking, one of these Foundation Establishment Pills is enough to build your foundation. I gave you two just in case. If you can't use them, you can return them to me. "
After Qin Di finished eating the crabs, he took out three jade bottles from his storage belt and said, "Come, everyone has one! I carefully prepared two for each of you. The effect is four times stronger than a peak Foundation Establishment Pill. "
The three of them happily put them away.
"Many thanks, Junior Brother!"
"Many thanks, Elder Brother Qin!"
Miao Yunjuan and Jiang Yunmu had eaten the Qi Nourishing Pills that Qin Di gave them before, so they naturally knew the taste.
Although Zhuang Yunqing had never eaten it before, she did not doubt Qin Di's ability.
Just like what she had said before, since her life was saved by him, she could just return it to him at most.
After that, Zhuang Yunqing found a Metal Vein on the island and decided to stay on Heavenly Star Island to build her foundation.
She knew that even if she returned to Scarlet Flame Island, there would only be one medium-sized Metal Vein. Rather than fighting with many people, it would be more convenient to stay on Heavenly Star Island.
The next day, the people sent by the sect to capture the Heavenly Star Crab arrived. The leader was a Foundation Establishment cultivator called Zhang Xingkuang. He brought seven or eight Qi Condensation disciples with him.
Zhang Xingkuang spoke very loudly. The moment he arrived on the island, he shouted, "Qin Yundi! Qin Yundi! Where are you? Why aren't you out yet? "
Qin Di quickly walked over and said, "Martial Uncle Zhang, do you have any instructions?"
Zhang Xingkuang glared and said, "Bring us to catch crabs! Otherwise, how would I know where the crabs are? Hurry up, don't waste our time! Can't you see that Martial Uncle is very busy? "
Qin Di was not in a hurry. He immediately brought everyone to the beach at the foot of the eastern mountain.
"It's here. Martial Uncle Zhang, be careful. The crabs are not easy to catch."
Before Zhang Xingkuang said anything, a disciple behind him said, "Haha, it's just a crab. What's so hard about it?"
Qin Di thought to himself, Who is this? Why is he so rude? Martial Uncle's seniority is high. It's fine if I say a few words, but you are just a small cultivator. How dare you speak to me like that? You really don't know your place!
Then he looked at the other disciples. All of them had a domineering temperament, similar to the leader, Zhang Xingkuang.
Therefore, he didn't try to persuade them anymore. He retreated far away and found a protruding rock to sit on. He quietly watched how these people were going to catch the star crabs.
Nhat Hanh and the others swaggered into the beach without any scruples. They didn't even pull out their spiritual swords and were ready to catch the crabs with their bare hands.
Those crabs were also somewhat intelligent. They didn't come out at the beginning, but when these people walked deep into the beach, they suddenly jumped out under the leadership of a two-foot-wide giant crab and launched an attack. In an instant, countless star crabs swarmed toward those people!
It happened so suddenly that many people didn't react in time.
"Idiot, pull out your treasured sword!"
"Idiot, quickly form a team and defend!"
"Damn it, how did I bring out idiots like you!"
Zhang Xingkuang shouted and a few disciples hurriedly formed a circle with their backs against each other.
However, in such a short period of time, three disciples were already injured. Two of them had their legs crushed by the star crabs, and they used their remaining leg to escape. There was also one disciple who had both his legs injured and actually fell to the ground. It seemed that he wouldn't be able to keep his life any longer.
Zhang Xingkuang was, after all, a Foundation Establishment cultivator. He could be considered to have experienced a lot. With a big stride, his treasured sword swept past like the wind and sent the star crabs flying. Then, he pulled that person up.
When Qin Di saw this, he almost laughed out loud. So this kid was the one who dared to speak before Zhang Xingkuang!
Then, a few disciples started to fight with the star crabs.
The shell of the star crabs was very tough. Low-level spiritual swords couldn't break its defense at all.
Zhang Xingkuang was holding a rank 4 spiritual sword, so he could deal with it. However, those disciples were helpless. In just a short period of time, another person was injured!
"Retreat! All of you retreat for me! "
All the disciples huddled together and slowly retreated. Zhang Xingkuang slashed left and right, trying his best to block the rain of attacks from the star crabs.
When these people retreated, Qin Di took a closer look and realized that all of them were injured! Either one of their legs was broken, or a large piece of flesh from their thighs had been crushed. Their clothes were ragged, and their pants were torn into pieces. They were worse off than beggars!
Zhang Xingkuang was angry and anxious. "Trash! All of you are trash! It's useless to bring you guys here. I might as well have come alone! "
All the disciples screamed. "Ouch, it hurts!"
"How is this a crab? It's more powerful than a group of lions!"
Someone suddenly pointed at Qin Di and shouted. "Hey, kid, what are you laughing at? You actually dare to laugh at us! You have quite the guts! "
Qin Di said loudly, "How am I laughing? Did you see me laughing? Which eye of yours saw it? "
"I just saw it. Master, this kid dares to laugh at us. How should we deal with him?"
Zhang Xingkuang stared at Qin Di. "Qin Yundi, you didn't come over to help. You actually hid at the side and laughed secretly. Tell me, how should I punish you?"
Qin Di was a little annoyed. "Disciple has already warned Martial Uncle that the crabs here are not easy to deal with, but Martial Uncle turned a deaf ear to it. Now, you are venting your anger on me. What's the meaning of this?"
The disciple whose legs were crushed lay on the ground and groaned. "Master, this kid dares to talk back. We have to deal with him! We can't let him go! "
Qin Di was a little sad in his heart. He thought to himself, If the Golden Core Sect is full of such bastards, then I'm too good to the sect! It seems that I can't be a good person!
Zhang Xingkuang hooked his finger and looked at him with slanted eyes. "Qin Yundi, come over and apologize to the senior brothers! You clearly know that the star crabs are not easy to catch, but you only gave an understatement. This is your fault! Hurry up, aren't you going to come over and admit your mistake? "
Qin Di stared at Zhang Xingkuang. "Martial Uncle Zhang, don't be unreasonable! Obediently bring the disciples back and ask the sect leader to send more experts over. This is the proper way to do it. "
Hearing this, the disciples were instantly angered!
"Master, Master, did you hear that? How can this kid speak like that? "
"Master, you can't be too polite to him! This kid is taking advantage of us! "
Zhang Xingkuang was instigated to the point of flying into a rage. His hair stood up as he shouted, "Qin Yundi, kneel down!"
Qin Di flung his sleeves and turned to leave.
"Really unreasonable! A crazy master bringing out a group of crazy disciples. Arrogant and rude. I think you guys don't want to go back! "
He was now at the Qi Refinement Great Perfection. His Azure Dragon Hundred Transformations had already reached a certain level. Therefore, even if he ran at full speed, Zhang Xingkuang wouldn't be able to catch up to him within a hundred miles.
Zhang Xingkuang started too late. He couldn't catch up after chasing for a kilometer. When he continued forward, Qin Di had already disappeared into the faint white fog.
The disciples behind struggled to catch up and shouted, "Master, Heavenly Star Island is only so big. Are you afraid that he will fly into the sky? Come, let's raid his lair. Let's see if he can still be arrogant! "
