Chapter 912: Catching cicadas (2)
ah … the man’s painful scream rang out belatedly. Even with his physique that was far better than human after beast transformation, he could not withstand the power of the lightning.
Fortunately, he had escaped quickly, and the majority of the power of the lightning had already missed. Only a small portion had landed on his body.
But even so, it was already unbearable for a man.
His body was sent flying dozens of meters by the impact of the spirit force, and then he ‘crashed’ onto the ground.
As soon as he landed on the ground, a burning smell came from his body. The man rolled over and got up.
A large mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth. Then, he fell to the ground, his breathing dispirited.
The child in the air retracted his hand and looked coldly at the man on the ground. He said disdainfully, ”
“Trash!”
He didn’t look like he was in a hurry to harvest the fruits of his labor. When he was about to kill the man, he happened to hear the man’s shout, so he stopped at the last moment and spared the man’s life.
I thought it was a shrimp. I didn’t expect to catch a big fish.
With the boy’s intelligence, he could naturally guess that this man had probably already cooperated with another trial-taker, one being released as bait to lure people in, and the other one ambushing from behind.
It was no wonder that when he released his divine sense earlier, he felt that there was another aura left in this person’s sea of consciousness and that there was an ambush nearby.
His luck today was pretty good, meeting two trial-takers the moment he arrived.
“Still not coming out?” The boy’s eyes turned and his voice was driven by spiritual energy. Under the pressure, he searched around with his divine sense in an attempt to catch the fish that had escaped.
He swept his divine sense around and quickly turned around as if he had discovered something …
At this moment, with a ‘ka ka’ sound, a chill rose from the ground that had been destroyed by the power of thunder and lightning, and it instantly froze into ice.
The charred black ground was covered with ice and frost. The ice crystals spread out rapidly, and with lightning speed, a huge ice layer with a diameter of more than a hundred feet was formed!
The area of the ice just happened to cover the purple-eyed boy, and before he could react, an ice awl with a cold light shot out from the ice, stabbing from the bottom.
The purple-eyed boy curled his lips and let out a strange sneer. Then, his body flashed and disappeared from the spot at an incredible speed.
The icicles pierced through his original position and shattered his afterimage.
The remaining lightning power in the air struck the icicles, making a sizzling sound. Countless fine ice shards fell like dust. The boy’s figure appeared from a higher place, looking down.
Song qingxiao’s figure slowly appeared in his sight, and he looked at the purple-eyed boy in the air.
“Looks like I’ve underestimated you,”
After sensing the spiritual power attribute of the man with the thin beard, the purple-eyed boy had already thought of song qingxiao.
However, in the trial space, she did not stand out when compared to red-haired, true Lord Black Wolf, and the hunchbacked man.
When everyone was competing in terms of pressure, she acted more like she was just protecting herself. In fact, when the mission officially started, she even felt like she was being controlled by the strange old man with long arms and legs.
After the mission was activated, she immediately ‘escaped’ out of the trial space. Everyone, including the purple-eyed boy, thought that if it were not for the green robe’s interference, she would have fallen into the hands of the old man.
No one would have thought that this person, who was mistaken by everyone as the weakest of the seven great nascent realm cultivators, was merely hiding his strength and pretending to be a pig to eat the Tiger.
Even the purple-eyed boy had misjudged her. If it wasn’t for song qingxiao opening the restriction first on the chart, allowing the purple-eyed boy to be more confident, and her previous attack exposing her true strength, song qingxiao’s true strength would be on par with his, already at the middle level of the nascent soul stage.
However, he seemed to be extremely confident in himself. Even though he knew song qingxiao’s true cultivation level, he did not hold back at all and continued to act arrogantly.
Song qingxiao ignored his words. She looked at him and then looked away at the man who had fallen far away.
Blood kept spurting out of this person’s mouth. The purple-eyed boy obviously also wanted to use him as bait and lure him forward, so he had held back his strength in the previous attack.
But even so, his injuries were not light.
The fierce and unparalleled lightning spiritual energy severely injured his body, causing half of his body to be destroyed. Even if he did not die, he would become half a cripple and would not be able to raise his spiritual energy.
This trial arena was extremely dangerous. Once he lost his spiritual power, even if he was still alive, he would not be able to escape death.
A large amount of lightning spiritual energy had yet to disperse from his body. With his current strength, he was simply unable to completely expel it.
The power of lightning was still destroying his body, making him gasp for breath as if he was on the verge of death. Song qingxiao’s appearance made him heave a sigh of relief. It meant that he had temporarily kept his life from the battle between the two great experts.
This purple-eyed boy was indeed as powerful as she had guessed at the beginning, even several times stronger than she had expected. He was an extremely difficult opponent.
She couldn’t help but sigh, and the same thought as the two-mustache man appeared in her heart. She didn’t know what kind of luck she had, but she was the first to encounter a cultivator who had just stepped into the nascent soul tier and seized a treasure. Then, she set the bait, and the fish took the bait, but she didn’t expect it to be such a big fish.
At this time, the signs on the chart no longer changed, and even the pool representing the green robe’s location did not continue to lose spiritual power. It could be imagined that all the trial-takers had appeared.
This time, he had encountered the strongest cultivator among the ten trial-takers, except for himself. After fighting with him, his spiritual energy would definitely be consumed. If he met other people next, he might be in danger.
Song qingxiao frowned and weighed her options. She couldn’t decide if she should fight or escape first. She couldn’t help but ask, ”
“May I ask if you have an interspatial space?”
The purple-eyed boy, who was standing on the clouds and surrounded by wind, clouds, Thunder, and lightning, was stunned when he heard her words. It seemed that he was extremely surprised by her question.
In just a moment, he returned to his expressionless face.
“There’s always too much nonsense before you die. So what if I have it, so What if I don’t?”
Song qingxiao laughed when she heard him.
“We’re on the same level, it’s too risky to fight you first.” When she said this, she saw a look of ridicule in the eyes of the purple-eyed boy because of her words. It was clear that this person didn’t think that their strength was equal, even if he knew that song qingxiao had already reached the middle level of the nascent soul stage.
She didn’t mind and continued, ”
“Of course, if you have some oil on you, the situation will be different.”
Her strength was increasing rapidly, but she didn’t have much money. She was poor, and the spatial pocket she was wearing was something she had snatched from fan jianghe.
However, as her wealth increased, it was obvious that fan jianghe’s pocket space was not enough. He needed more space to store things.
If this purple-eyed boy had a strange item like a mustard seed dimensional space, it proved that he was from a very powerful family. In this case, it was naturally worth her time.
