Chapter 458 Two Thousand Explosions, Wishing Them Good Luck
Inside the Yunzhong Valley, in the Cloud Palace, six Unity Realm cultivators led by Yun Xiao sat cross-legged on the ground, forming a perfect hexagon.
Yun Xiao calmly said, “Later, when the ‘Yunzhong Six Veins Long Journey’ is activated, I will mainly control it to leave this place as soon as possible. Moreover, since it’s my first time activating the Six Veins Formation, I’m not sure how it will work. I’ll need the cooperation of my junior brothers and junior sisters.”
Yue You immediately nodded, “Rest assured, senior sister.”
Yu Fei Xian also said, “Of course.”
The others also nodded in agreement with Yun Xiao’s words.
Yun Xiao breathed a long sigh of relief and said, “Well, let’s begin.”
Everyone calmed their minds and adjusted their breath to the optimal state.
After a moment, Yun Xiao first performed the spell, enveloping himself in a layer of milky white light.
Yue You followed suit, wrapping herself in a layer of silver light that faintly blended with Yun Xiao’s white light.
Feng Ye Shuang, Yu Feixian, Chen Gu, and Wu Yao consecutively cast spells, and the six-colored light formed a halo, merging together and turning into a dazzling golden light, as if becoming one.
The golden light grew brighter and formed a golden ring, making the figures inside indiscernible.
The golden disc slowly rose and drifted towards the gate of the main hall. After passing through the gate, it suddenly rose high, pierced through the mist above, and its speed increased, breaking through the mist formation of the Yunzhong Valley and flying out of its range.
Then it chose one direction and shot off into the distance, its speed extremely fast, turning into a golden dot in the blink of an eye.
When the golden disc flew out of the mist of the Yunzhong Valley, the Unity Realm cultivators waiting outside the mountain gate to intercept the six people all noticed it, and they understood that the six Unity Realm cultivators of the Yunzhong Valley were definitely trying to escape.
However, they had long since stopped caring about these six people from the Yunzhong Valley.
Because the ‘Crystal Thief’ had appeared! The appearance of the Crystal Thief wasn’t actually a big deal, but the key issue was that fifteen Unity Realm cultivators had already confirmed their deaths!
In their view, this was almost impossible. Did they think Unity Realm cultivators were like cabbage on the street, easily chopped down?
Every Unity Realm cultivator was a well-known and influential figure in this world, and they wouldn’t die so easily, let alone fifteen of them.
However, the fact was so cruel. The bodies of more than ten cultivators lay quietly at the foot of the mountain, and no amount of ‘impossibility’ could bring them back to life.
They then realized a very serious matter: someone could slaughter Unity Realm cultivators as easily as slaughtering chickens and sheep, without much effort. It was as if, for these Unity Realm cultivators, slaughtering Foundation Establishment cultivators was simple.
What’s more serious was that they had provoked the ‘Crystal Thief’ who could slaughter Unity Realm cultivators at will, seemingly quite severely, reaching the point where they didn’t even say a word of threat, just directly killed with a knife.
Perhaps, that Crystal Thief had already reached a realm beyond Unity?
What realm was that? Could they come and go freely like that Crystal Thief, leaving no trace behind?
The remaining thirty-nine Unity Realm cultivators gathered together, fully on guard against the Crystal Thief who could appear at any moment.
According to previous experiences, they all knew that whenever the Crystal Thief’s figure flashed out, a Unity Realm cultivator’s head would inevitably be severed, and then they would fall down the mountain, without even the chance to self-destruct!
Ling Xuan’s face was ferocious, no longer gentle and elegant. At this moment, he hated the Crystal Thief to the core, but he acknowledged that he had no way to deal with the Crystal Thief.
Originally, they had vigorously promoted the siege of the Yunzhong Valley, also intending to lure out the Crystal Thief and utilize the Unity Realm strength of many Unity Realm cultivators to kill him. However, he found that he was somewhat naive. Not only him, but also the group of serious-faced Unity Realm cultivators around him had no way to deal with the Crystal Thief who came and went without a trace.
At this time, someone suggested, “Why don’t we scatter separately? After all, the Crystal Thief is only one person. It’s impossible for him to chase all of us at the same time. As for who can escape, it’s up to each individual’s ability!”
Immediately, someone retorted, “If we scatter, we will inevitably be picked off one by one without any resistance. Only by gathering together do we have a chance to kill him.”
“If that’s the case, aren’t we no different from pigs waiting in a pigsty to be slaughtered by the owner?”
“Who are you calling a pig?”
“When we have gathered here for a long time and the Crystal Thief still hasn’t appeared again, doesn’t it prove that he dares not to appear easily while we are gathered together?”
“That makes sense.”
“We need to think about whether there are any spells that would make the Crystal Thief wary!”
“I observe that the Crystal Thief is only at the Nascent Soul realm.”
“That’s because we can’t see through him. If you think he’s really at the Nascent Soul realm, you’re underestimating the Crystal Thief. In this world, there are all sorts of wonders. What we see and hear may not be true.”
…
People discussed various strategies to deal with the situation.
The man with a ponytail and a long face, Shan Huan, showed his wisdom from the beginning. With a bright label of ‘great talent’ on his forehead, he smiled faintly and said, “Fellow cultivators, I have a plan that can kill the Crystal Thief on the spot.”
Everyone looked at Shan Huan.
Ling Xuan immediately said, “What plan do you have, Fellow Shan Huan, please share it with us.”
Shan Huan, with an air of confidence, smiled faintly and said, “Don’t you all remember what we are best at?”
Ling Xuan frowned, “Soul Annihilation spells?”
Elder Shi Jian from the Triple Phoenix Pavilion shook his head, “Difficult! I have had a confrontation with him before, and Soul Annihilation spells are useless against him.”
Shan Huan said, “It’s not that they are useless. Essentially, they just haven’t hit him.”
Ling Xuan also voiced his doubts, “Indeed, the problem now is how to hit the Crystal Thief?”
Shan Huan squinted and said, “We don’t need to attack him. We just need him to come to us!”
Ling Xuan asked, “How so?”
Shan Huan smiled and said, “First, we will mutually stack protective spells to ensure complete protection, then we will spread out a bit and lure him here. After that, everyone will continuously unleash dense Soul Annihilation spells in all directions at the same time!”
Regardless of whom the Crystal Thief chooses as the target of the attack, the moment he appears, he will run into a large number of Soul Annihilation spells head-on. At that moment, the Crystal Thief, unable to dodge in time, will inevitably suffer heavy damage! Afterward, he will not dare to come again, and we can rest assured to leave.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up. They couldn’t say they were at ease to leave, but this approach indeed had the chance to severely damage the Crystal Thief.
Ling Xuan laughed heartily, “Friend Shan Huan, you have a brilliant plan!”
…
Su Hao did not continue to attack these Unity Realm cultivators, not because he was concerned about their gathering.
His idea was, since they were all gathered, he would become a super giant bomb and throw himself into their midst, ideally taking care of all of them.
At the very least, he could break through multiple layers of their shields, then teleport multiple times to harvest their heads and crush them.
“I haven’t tried activating the effect of ‘Two Thousand Bursts’ with spiritual power before. Now is a good time to try.” Su Hao said as he used the Transforming Diamond Armor under his feet to build layer upon layer of dense ‘bursting’ runes from the inside out.
Ten minutes later, there was a huge crystal ball in front of Su Hao, nearly ten meters in diameter. From the outside, one could see the dense rune patterns inside, emitting a unique beauty.
Su Hao pressed his hand carefully on the input port of the crystal ball, cautiously inputting spiritual power into it.
He had to be careful. If it suddenly exploded, he might not have time to teleport away.
After a while, the spiritual power was filled, and the huge crystal ball emitted a faint green light from inside out. This ‘Two Thousand Bursts’ was also in a state of activation.
And Su Hao’s spiritual power was nearly halved.
All Su Hao needed to do was control the mechanism at the core of the ball. With a gentle twist, this green light ball would immediately transform into a sun, destroying everything around it.
At this moment, Su Hao muttered in surprise, “Huh? They actually dispersed a bit! But it doesn’t matter, they’re all still within the blast range!”
He chuckled, “I wonder what tricks they’re up to. They really have a lot of ideas. Well then, good luck to them!”
With that said, Su Hao’s core runes operated at full capacity, his mental tentacles manipulated the space, and he pressed his hand on the crystal ball, giving it a hard push!
The crystal ball suddenly disappeared from its original location and appeared at the center of the group of Unity Realm cultivators.
Ling Xuan, Shan Huan, Shi Jian, and other Unity Realm cultivators were filled with question marks: “???”
Why did the Crystal Thief turn into a ball?
