“Junior Brother, you actually had such a great item, if you had mentioned it earlier, we wouldn’t have even needed to go through all this trouble to rescue you.”
Liu Jinshui’s eyes lit up, even at this critical juncture, his avaricious nature was completely exposed.
“Senior Brother, quickly find a chance to distribute the talismans to the other Senior Brothers and Sisters, I’ll go and hold off the straw-cloaked man’s attack!”
“Mhm, be careful, Junior Brother!”
Upon seeing the Thousand Mile Transmission Talisman, Liu Jinshui’s expression changed in a heartbeat, his face once resolved again broke into a sleazy smile, as he swiftly darted into the dense forest.
In the arena,
Su Yunbing and Ye Wushuang were jointly unleashing a fierce attack on the straw-cloaked man, who was amongst the most powerful of all their Senior Brothers and Sisters, with an inscrutable depth of strength, yet still they were unable to inflict the slightest injury on the straw-cloaked man.
In the void, the hammer danced so tightly that not even the wind could penetrate, and the mysterious behemoth totem branded on it manifested once more, furiously smashing down at the straw-cloaked man.
Ye Wushuang went all out with her cultivation technique, and a green Primordial Spirit Phantom rose from behind, unleashing an endless array of poison techniques. In an instant, the ground beneath the straw-cloaked man’s feet became a barren wasteland.
“Hehe, two little kids, quite impressive martial skills you’ve got, to have touched the realm of Nascent Soul Stage at such a young age, truly prodigious talents.”
“Which Sect do you belong to, under whom are you disciples?”
the straw-cloaked man inquired.
“None of your damn business!”
Su Yunbing swung her hammer to strike, not wanting to waste words with the opponent.
Meanwhile, streams of smoke fiercely burrowed inside through the straw-cloaked man’s continually opening and closing mouth. Seeing the opportunity, Ye Wushuang tried to force as much poison as she could into the man’s body.
The straw-cloaked man was fuming; never had he been treated this way before, as he had always been approached with utmost respect and fear—no one even dared to breathe loudly in his presence. Yet today, he found himself relentlessly pursued and attacked by a group of juniors.
If it weren’t for the powers backing these juniors, he would have sent them all to the Western Paradise long ago.
“Chaos Dissolve!”
Dark light surged, and the straw-cloaked man was surrounded by a layer of gray Spiritual Energy, which suddenly swept the two women aside.
“This is an Evil Cultivator, practicing the power of the Blood Evil!”
“This person should be a cultivator from the Evil Sect of Central Province!”
Lin Yin, hiding in the shadows, suddenly exclaimed, recognizing the cultivation technique surrounding the man.
“Hmm? You do have some skill to be able to discern my technique. Not bad at all!”
The straw-cloaked man’s eyebrows rose slightly, a bit surprised, not expecting to encounter such a group of talents in this remote area.
He had only been resting briefly in these mountains, incidentally nurturing the Dragon Snake Fruit Tree. He didn’t expect that, in just a short while after he had left, someone had already plucked the fruits.
That was secondary, however. What was truly crucial was that the shard had also vanished.
This was what enraged him the most. The shard was of enormous significance. If his master learnt of this, he would have no chance of survival. He had to recover it!
With a palm towards the void, an invisible ripple spread, and Su Yunbing’s movements suddenly stalled, trapped in the void, unable to move.
The straw-cloaked man was about to make his move!
“Don’t panic, Senior Sister, your Junior Brother is here to help!”
Fourth Senior Brother Yang Chen burst forth from the ground, his Double Sided Halberd transforming into a Golden Dragon, thrusting straight at the straw-cloaked man’s brow.
“Hehe, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time!”
The straw-cloaked man’s eyes narrowed slightly as he extended two fingers, lightly trapping the Double Sided Halberd. The Golden Dragon Phantom shattered, and no matter how hard Yang Chen tried, it was completely immobile.
“Third Senior Brother, now!”
Ling Feng also burst from the ground, wielding a Dagger and thrusting directly at the straw-cloaked man’s back, taking advantage of the moment when the man was restraining Su Yunbing with one hand and thwarting Yang Chen with the other—perfectly timed for a sneak attack.
Simultaneously, at a distance, Lin Yin transformed into a cloud of grey smoke and violently rushed towards the straw-cloaked man’s location.
“To stand firm against my pressure and still be able to launch an attack with such composure is truly remarkable,”
“Seeing this demeanor, I believe it’s unlikely they were trained in the Northern Region. Recognizing my Cultivation Technique and Sect, have you come from the Central Province?”
The straw-cloaked man grew more alarmed as the fight went on, not because their strength posed a threat to him, but because the fearless spirit they displayed was not something a common Sect could cultivate.
Although the six people in front of him varied in strength, they all subtly exuded an invincible aura.
Such a demeanor could only be developed by those who battle continuously in all directions, claiming victory and harboring an ironclad belief in their own invincibility.
This feeling, even in Central Province, belonged only to a rare few geniuses.
“I have good relations with the Nalan Family in Central Province, and I’m on good terms with other families too. Would you mind revealing your affiliations? It wouldn’t be pleasant if the Dragon King Temple gets flooded out by mistake,” the straw-cloaked man tried to pry some information from them.
Unfortunately, the people from Misty Peak didn’t listen to him at all, launching relentless attacks instead.
“Mind your positions and spread out!”
“He’s let go, Senior Sister, move away from that area!”
“Burrow underground, burrow, and find another weakness!”
“Second Senior Sister, follow up with your poison techniques to slow down his movement!”
“…”
Seeing such a turn of events, the straw-cloaked man’s expression darkened completely.
“Merely Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivation levels, and you dare to be so presumptuous before me. Since you’re unwilling to divulge your origins, then I shall simply eliminate all of you. I doubt your Sects will be able to trace it back to me anytime soon!”
The straw-cloaked man completely lost his patience, and once again, his surroundings surged with a pitch-black fog darker than ink.
The sky turned overcast in an instant, the dark clouds rolled, and a vast expanse of gloom enveloped the ground. The surface of the earth heaved with waves of black deadly Qi, filled with a ghastly atmosphere.
Daylight transformed into night in the blink of an eye, and wails of ghosts and howls of wolves echoed piercingly in their ears.
Within the void, the air crackled explosively. In just a moment, everyone present felt the hair on their bodies stand on end. Even before the straw-cloaked man made a move, his presence was suffocating.
“This is a Demonic Path Technique. Once tainted by even a thread, the demonic poison will infiltrate the body and destroy one’s foundation!”
Lin Yin once again voiced a warning, indicating his deep understanding of Evil Cultivators.
“Good knowledge. Judging by your technique, you seem to be half an Evil Cultivator yourself. Unfortunately, you’ve chosen the wrong opponent!”
The straw-cloaked man cackled wickedly, no longer holding back his intent to kill. He had many other matters to attend to and wanted to finish off everyone here in one go.
His first target was Senior Sister Su Yunbing.
This woman’s hammer was troublesome, and there was a faint sense of restraint against him, weak though it might be, but it was still unpleasant.
Pointing a finger into the void, a strand of black smoke streaked across the sky, aiming straight for Su Yunbing’s forehead.
Su Yunbing’s complexion changed, and her body seemed to be fixed in place, unable to move an inch. She couldn’t withstand the might of this move.
“Senior Sister!”
Li Xiaobai wanted to rush forward to block this wave of attack, but at that moment, the small broken dog in his arms suddenly became wildly agitated.
Its body flashed with brilliant golden light as it leapt into the air towards Su Yunbing’s hammer, and at the same time, the totem of the wild beast on the hammer awakened once again.
“Roar!”
A beast’s roar reverberated through heaven and earth, and in the void, a blurry wild beast slowly paced.
Its crimson eyes stared intently at the black fog in front, casually swatting at it, causing the black smoke to instantly disperse.
“Fuck, Ergouzi, that’s awesome!”
