Chapter 486 - 247: With Palm Thunder, I Annihilate All Souls
A Yin Yang Treasure Mirror, shrouded in Yin Yang Qi, floated and sank in his mind, and then a mysterious luster blossomed on the deep mirror surface.
The Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Divine Thought Celestial Strike Technique was fully activated, locking onto everything.
Any crisis hidden in the shadows had nowhere to hide.
At this moment, those few who were secretly launching a sneak attack felt a chill at heart, only to feel the hairs on the back of their necks stand up, as if they had suddenly been locked onto by a prehistoric beast’s gaze, sending chills up their spines.
Bang!
Zheng Yi waved his big hand, extended two fingers of his right hand, and pointed in mid-air. Instantly, an arrow appeared out of thin air.
The entirely jet-black arrow lacked any trace of brilliance in the air, without a glimmer of light even when illuminated, clearly a specially crafted Shadowless Arrow.
The black arrowhead exuded a sharpness from its surface. The tail of the arrow kept trembling, emitting a hiss-like sound akin to a serpent in the air.
Its speed was beyond imagination!
"Stealth in the shadows, Soul-Stealing Arrow!"
"It’s the means of the Righteous Hundred Evils Immortal Hall’s Divine Arrow Dao..."
Zheng Yi sneered, reversed his grip and waved his hand. Under the embrace of the Five Elements Power, the arrow suddenly burst forth with five-colored light, flying back at even greater speed along the trajectory from which it came.
Whoosh!
Boom!
In the violent explosion, a thick tree was blasted in half, scattering fragments, and from the midst of the swirling dust jumped a figure in a sorry state. The longbow in his hand, strung with Demon Snake Bowstring, snapped completely, leaving a deep scar on his face.
"We’ve been discovered. Stop hiding!"
"This person is too strong, too tough to handle. We have to attack together, or else we’ll all die..."
The archer who leapt from the dust looked at Zheng Yi’s unscathed figure, a flash of fear in his eyes, and let out a low roar. Immediately, several figures jumped out from other directions, surrounding Zheng Yi in the center.
Zheng Yi raised an eyebrow, sweeping his gaze around. He was already clear in his heart.
Those who attempted the sneak attack on him were a team of Righteous Dao cultivators stationed there, lying in wait to ambush passing Demon Dao cultivators. They had probably succeeded in several waves already.
After all, the likelihood of encountering fierce beasts during exploration was too high and very dangerous.
It was much safer and more profitable to rob the same Demon Cultivators who were also outsiders.
The Righteous Dao called this a Demon Slaying Conference, and not without reason.
Unfortunately, these individuals were unlucky and hadn’t completed many transactions before running into Zheng Yi, a mighty force to reckon with.
"This must be what they call a narrow encounter between old foes!"
"Pity I’m pressed for time and have no spare seconds to toy with you here..."
Zheng Yi glanced at them, an icy aura flowing around, giving an innate sense of horror.
"Divine Arrow Dao..."
"Strong Body Sect..."
With just a few casual glances, Zheng Yi, with his powerful Core Formation Divine Soul strength, instantly discerned the origins and backgrounds of these individuals.
As that immense Divine Soul power spread, the few Righteous Cultivators instinctively responded. Their faces changed, becoming increasingly grave.
At this moment, they truly felt like they were confronting some terrifying prehistoric beast. Although Zheng Yi made no overt actions, the sensation he imparted was like a colossal, dark mountain slowly oppressing them.
That terrifying oppressive force made their hearts quake.
The few of them had survived the early dangerous phase after being teleported randomly to the Sumeru Forest Cave Heaven and fortunately met up, uniting naturally as cultivators from a Righteous Sect against the ferocious beasts, forming a team to either combat these strong beasts or ambush Demon Cultivators.
Their results were enormous, vanquishing numerous Demon Cultivators in succession, obtaining a large amount of Spirit Plants, Spirit Essences, and treasures, much more profitable and with significantly less danger than slaying fierce beasts.
Thus, they decided not to advance any further into dangerous areas but to ambush those Demon Cultivators, scavenging all treasures from their bodies, a strategy yielding great rewards with minimal risk.
After all, though Demon Cultivators’ combat powers were formidable and not weaker than Righteous Cultivators, facing an ambush from several Righteous Cultivators of the same realm was extremely dangerous and daunting.
As the saying goes, the frequent walker by the river will inevitably get their shoes wet!
Having consecutively ambushed several Demon Cultivators, they just happened to encounter Zheng Yi as soon as they made a move.
Actually, with Zheng Yi’s formidable Divine Soul Power, he masked his own aura, making his outward appearance seem unremarkable, thus being mistaken as a fat sheep early on and ambushed.
Before fully entering this area, he faintly sensed some dangerous feeling, realizing someone was lying in wait, treating him as a target.
The initial scenario was the result.
Originally, the Divine Arrow Dao cultivator would strike first, heavily damaging the Demon Cultivators with a Shadowless Divine Arrow, while the other Righteous Cultivators would swarm and decisively kill the trapped Demon Cultivators.
This was a good strategy and had added significant achievements according to the execution scenarios.
But in the face of Zheng Yi, it was ineffective; instead of scoring a kill in one strike, he forced the most threatening archer of the Divine Arrow Dao out with a mere counterattack.
Having lost the element of surprise and secrecy, the archer’s threat diminished significantly.
Besides, these people had bit off more than they could chew.
"Die!"
Zheng Yi’s gaze swept across the faces of the several present Righteous Cultivators, his sharp eyes piercing directly into their hearts, imparting a pressure so deep-seated it made breathing become difficult.
