Chapter 87: Chapter 87: The Invincible Heavy-Duty Truck

Translator: 549690339

Protector Liu gave an order, and the other Evil Cultivators immediately took action.

Activating their Cultivation Techniques, they spurred the Soul Summoning Banner into action, and in an instant, the sky darkened and evil spirits howled. Amidst the black malevolent aura, a faint red gleam flickered, making everyone feel a dramatic increase in pressure.

The overwhelming aura of the Nascent Soul Stage caused the ground beneath everyone’s feet to crack and crumble.

This was a dark art; the malicious aura was of two types—one eroded the physical body, the other severed the Primordial Spirit.

The red gleam targeted the Primordial Spirit specifically. The opponents wanted to leave the bodies intact to search for the so-called treasure.

“Boss Ye, is Zhang Rui really here or not? Give us a straight answer!”

“Yeah, we can’t just sacrifice the lives of all of us for just one person, can we?”

The cultivators looked towards Li Xiaobai; among those present, Li Xiaobai had become their mainstay.

“What Zhang Rui? You all grew up together from a young age. If outsiders don’t understand, don’t you know by now? This is clearly a trap they’ve set together to kill us!”

“Don’t just sit there and wait to die; get in the vehicle quickly, Liangchen will drive you out!”

Li Xiaobai told a blatant lie with his eyes open, urging everyone to hurry onto the vehicle. The heavy-duty truck could definitely break through the cage of malevolent aura.

The remaining cultivators, upon hearing this, were all momentarily stunned. Right, they had lived in Ancient Moon City since their childhood and knew each other inside out; there was no such person as Zhang Rui.

Now it was clear that the Xia Family and Wang Family were refusing to help and obviously setting them up!

“Damn, the situation is too tense, I almost fell for it!”

“Yeah, if it weren’t for Boss Ye’s reminder, I wouldn’t have thought of this!”

“These two have always appeared so upstanding, never would I have thought they were such people; I misjudged them!”

“If we survive today, we must demand an explanation from the Family Heads!”

“Compared to them, Boss Ye is a man of emotion. True colors show in times of trouble. Compared to Boss Ye, those two are far inferior!”

The people quickly got on the vehicle, crawling into the cargo hold and curling up their bodies as much as possible to avoid exposing themselves.

They had all witnessed the defensive power of the large truck before, and maybe it really could hold its own against the malevolent aura.

Li Xiaobai threw Ergouzi and Ji Wuqing into the passenger seat and then flashed into the driver’s seat, inserting dozens of medium-grade Spirit Stones. This time, there was no need to worry about running out of fuel midway.

“Woof, kid, if it wasn’t for you holding back Lord Ergouzi, that arrogant bastard would already be a dead man,” Ergouzi said, recovering his senses and barking furiously at the Evil Cultivators.

“Giggle, not bad, I was just about to make my move, but since you, kid, wanted to act personally, I did not compete with you for the chance. Fight well and don’t disgrace my name,” Ji Wuqing said, taking a few steps on the spot to ease the stiffness in his legs from the tension, and spoke confidently.

Li Xiaobai was speechless, “What are you pretending for at a time like this!”

Outside the prison of malevolent aura, the few Evil Cultivators manipulated the Soul Summoning Banner, closing in on the cultivators, aiming to sever their consciousness without harming their bodies, a task requiring precision.

The chilling winds blew incessantly, turning several miles of land into desolation.

“Begin.”

Protector Liu waved his hand, and the Evil Cultivators immediately started the annihilation.

The cage of malevolent aura began to contract, with red blood qi surging and flowing into the enclosed area, initiating the extermination of the cultivators’ consciousness.

Excitement flickered in Protector Liu’s eyes as he looked at a small glowing fragment in his hands—gifted by a superior, it could sense the aura of the piece taken by Zhang Rui.

At this moment, the fragment was shining brightly, indicating that the other piece taken away was among these people.

Kill these people, retrieve the fragment, and promotion and fortune would come today. If that great person were pleased, he might casually reward a Cultivation Technique, which could mean propelling to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage was not impossible!

The Xia brothers all had mocking looks in their eyes as Li Xiaobai, who had made it difficult for them to save face before, was now pitifully dying here, which was extremely satisfying for them.

They were eager to witness the despair on the other’s face just before death.

Wang Ruoxian’s expression was indifferent, like an ancient well without ripples. The people here today were as good as dead. She had seen for herself just how strong a Nascent Soul Cultivator could be.

Perhaps this time, you should understand the truth that there are always people better than you, right?

Unfortunately, it was already too late. There are some people in this world who should not be offended.

“Is Zhang Rui really hiding among those family descendants?”

“That shouldn’t be possible, we know all these people, there couldn’t be Zhang Rui among them…”

“I don’t understand either, and I dare not ask…”

Zuo Da and his two brothers were still confused, staring blankly at the movements within the evil aura ahead.

Inside the truck, Li Xiaobai saw the blood-red breath coming at him. It was the Blood Demon Corrosion Force. If the cultivators inside the truck were touched by even a trace, they would be doomed without a doubt. He needed to get a talisman to protect everyone.

[Minor Golden Body Talisman: Can withstand a full-force strike from a Nascent Soul Cultivator. (One hundred medium-grade Spirit Stones).]

Note: Once the talisman is broken, it loses effect.

Protector Liu was a Nascent Soul Cultivator. One Minor Golden Body Talisman should be enough, but to be on the safe side, Li Xiaobai purchased two talismans.

Raising his hand and placing them inside the vehicle, the armored truck was instantly enveloped in a golden glow. Everyone inside was shrouded in golden light, keeping the evil aura outside, unable to break through.

The blood-red breath surged forward, enveloping the truck, completely obscuring the road ahead from the windshield.

With only his memory to rely on, he swung the steering wheel fiercely and floored the accelerator. The engine roared, the ground trembled, and the armored truck charged towards the direction where Protector Liu was.

The surrounding evil aura dissipated into nothingness at this charge.

“What kind of treasure is this?”

Protector Liu’s face changed, and he was shocked. He raised his hand and summoned the Soul Summoning Banner in front of him. His hands formed a sword technique and pointed at the speeding truck: “Thousand Souls Attraction!”

A large amount of black fog poured out from the Soul Summoning Banner, transforming into a sky-high hand, confronting the truck. Wherever the black giant hand passed, the ground crumbled, and stones turned to powder.

All of these were formed from gathered human resentment, possessing a corroding force. Anyone with an unstable mind would die upon contact.

“To possess such a treasure. Worthy of someone who could take the fragments. My lord underestimated you.”

“Unfortunately, even if you have divine weapons to assist you, you are ultimately just a cultivator with low cultivation. Today, I, Liu, will let you know what it means to be a mantis trying to stop a chariot!”

Li Xiaobai had a peculiar expression. The brain of this Evil Cultivator seemed not to be functioning well. Standing there and letting him ram into him, wasn’t he just asking to be handed a swift death?

Even for this big truck of his, not to mention a Nascent Soul stage, even a Transcendance Tribulation Stage being would probably be run over straight away.

He shifted gears, slammed on the gas, and burst forth, fiercely colliding with the Soul Summoning Banner.

“Crack,” went the sound.

The Soul Summoning Banner broke upon impact, the black giant hand shattered, and the black fog exploded outwards.

“Pfft!”

Protector Liu’s chest caved in where the truck struck him, blood spurted wildly from his mouth as he fell to the ground.

“This is impossible!”

Protector Liu was filled with horror, but sadly, he had no time left to ponder.

The Steel Behemoth in front of him retreated slightly, by about a meter, and then once more let out a thunderous roar. Dust billowed, and it rolled over Protector Liu…
