Chapter 386 Setting a Trap and Engaging in a Battle of Wits
There is no such person as him in Taihu Lake. Even if he were on the list, it should be Wang Yu, the seventh elder of Hanxue Peak, not Bingmo Tongzi.
He has now grown back to ten years old.
The appearance of a child transforms into that of a teenager, and there are certain changes in that transformation.
There is almost no psychological resistance to refining human elixirs.
It is believed that the Green-Clad Ancestor was just asking him to submit a pledge of loyalty. As long as he is not a spy from Taihu Lake, he believes he can handle the rest.
"Hahaha, since you're so straightforward, shall we go take a look now?"
"Can."
Wang Yu nodded slowly, and in the evening, his peripheral vision inadvertently caught sight of the twin sisters standing in the hall. Qingyi, observing their expressions, immediately glared at the City Lord of Meiling.
This person understands.
"Senior Ice Demon, this junior will escort these two beauties to the Fragrance Courtyard, where you may stay."
"polite."
"No, it's you being kind to me."
Wang Yu immediately revealed a satisfied smile. The difference between the Nascent Soul stage and the Core Formation stage was indeed worlds apart. How could he have ever made these capable second-generation elites bow down before!
Nascent Soul cultivators are already among the few powerful groups in this world.
In addition, his body had grown to the age of ten and his appearance had become somewhat similar to that of an adult, so he had to use methods of concealment again.
He intends to test the myriad transformations of the innate demonic fetus.
Currently, only one demon form is stored, but it's still possible to slightly modify facial features with this ability, which would actually make it more deceptive.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Wang Yu followed Qingyi to the prison of the Meiling City Lord's Mansion, where seven or eight young men dressed in the traditional attire of the Chiyuan people and with seven or eight scars on their faces were present.
He collapsed weakly in prison.
This outfit makes him look more like a mortal bandit than a Crimson Clan demon cultivator, and wearing traditional clothing is just too outrageous; locals only wear this kind of thing during holidays and celebrations.
As for the festivals of Chi Yuan... apart from the Demon Descent Day, Wang Yu knew nothing about them, nor did he need to know them.
As for those obviously fake pretenses, it means they are all newcomers who haven't experienced much hardship, otherwise they wouldn't be so foolish.
"Fellow Daoist, please—"
Wang Yu looked around and sensed that something was wrong.
"Brother in green robes, may I perform a soul search?"
"This...is not appropriate."
The old patriarch in green smiled and explained.
“These spies have already searched my soul once. If they search it again in a short time, my soul will be shattered, making it impossible to refine me into an adult pill.”
Wang Yu sneered.
"In the Dao of Human Alchemy, the soul is merely an ingredient. Unless you're refining a soul-type elixir, it's completely unnecessary. Brother Qingyi, you're not implying that you happen to want it, are you?"
"..." The other party was speechless.
The spies in the prison who overheard the conversation were all shocked and screamed hysterically, especially one of them whose screams were particularly noticeable.
"Don't!
“I am the legitimate son of True Lord Yang Lei, I…”
The man in green changed his expression and forcibly sewed his lips shut. Blood dripped down, and he tried to scream like a pig being slaughtered, but couldn't. He could only clench his fist and turn red.
"True Lord Yang Lei, a veteran mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator from Lei Huo Guan!"
"Fellow Daoist in green robes, this favor is not easy to do."
Wang Yu's aura was icy.
When he realized that this group of people were a bit naive, he began to speculate that they were hothouse flowers and spoiled brats who wanted to prove themselves.
Without needing to search his soul, he could clearly guess the cause and effect of the matter. There was no other reason than his practiced skills!
The good-for-nothing wants to prove himself, but he doesn't have any real skills.
They brought this upon themselves.
Faced with Wang Yu's questioning.
The old man in green robes remained silent for a moment before explaining, "Now that things have come to this, I will not hide it from you. Fellow Daoist Ice Demon's background is unclear, and he does indeed need this pledge of allegiance."
"yes."
Wang Yu did not deny this point.
"But you shouldn't have set a trap for me. It's just a pledge of allegiance. You could have just killed a few people from Taihu Lake. Why make me have a blood feud with True Lord Yang Lei for killing my son?"
"With the great war between good and evil imminent, what are your intentions?!"
Being reprimanded by a junior who had just condensed his Nascent Soul, the Green-Clad Ancestor lost face and his attitude hardened.
What do you intend to do?
“This person can’t be killed, let’s find another one. Also, you should pay for your offense with ten top-grade spirit stones.”
"impossible!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the old patriarch in green decisively refused.
"You're asking for the moon! Do you think I'm surnamed Jin?"
"So, fellow Daoist, you mean you're not giving it to me?"
His blood boiled, and a surge of rage rose in the heart of the old patriarch in green robes. However, remembering that Wang Yu had been invited to stay, he forcibly suppressed his anger.
But if I take a step back, the more I think about it, the angrier I get.
"I, a dignified Nascent Soul Stage 3 cultivator, am not afraid of a mere brat like you!"
Knowing that a move would be made, Wang Yu grinned maliciously.
Such a close distance.
The giant hand reached out directly, forming a field of power with the power of the silver blood divine force, and the invisible palm print slammed down.
In an instant.
The old ancestor in green robes unleashed endless storms from his body, forming a wind-force defense, but how could he possibly withstand Wang Yu's sneak attack when caught off guard?
"Boom—"
The entire prison collapsed instantly. Wang Yu seized the opportunity to capture that damned Yang Lei Zhenjun's legitimate son into his seed bag, and then captured everyone around him.
He rescued them all.
He figured it out: the real Wang Yu needed to avoid the Nine Evil Sword Lord and dared not show himself until he reached the mid-Nascent Soul stage, so the identity of the Ice Demon Child was not solid.
Normally it's fine, but once war breaks out, they'll be frequently searched.
There was no way to infiltrate the ranks of the Red Fence's higher-ups. Given this messed-up situation, I might as well surrender.
Anyway, it has nothing to do with Wang Yu.
Moreover, the number of cultivators from Taihu Lake almost completely overwhelms that of Chiyuan. It is only because of the large number of top-level combat forces that Chiyuan has managed to retain its territory.
Temporarily joining the advantageous side, is that alright?
He was also familiar with Chi Yuan. He knew that profiting from this region was no different from a rat entering a rice jar. Once the war was over, he would still be the Seventh Elder of Han Xue Peak.
A crazy idea suddenly popped into my head.
It seems like a good idea at first glance, but it will face many problems in actual implementation, though it will be more comfortable than it is now.
Qingyi did not have the habit of swallowing her anger.
He, Wang Yu, has none of that!
If I'm timid and hesitant before I've even formed my Nascent Soul, and I'm still timid and hesitant after I have, then what's the point of forming my Nascent Soul?!
"If you were a great cultivator, I would be somewhat wary of you."
"snort--"
The man in green suddenly emerged from the ruins, covered in dust and dirt, with a large bruise on his face, and a hint of apprehension in his old eyes.
"Ice Demon Child, don't blame me for being uncivilized."
"Feng Hua, activate the City Lord's Mansion's formation!"
As a fourth-tier main city, the defensive formation here is naturally also of the fourth tier. Wang Yu was not afraid at all and rushed towards the old ancestor in green robes as if he was in a hurry.
In reality, his divine consciousness was connected to the Heart of the Sea Ring.
Upon touching the Seventh Elder of Cold Blood's Ring, it instantly invaded the array's core. As one of the powerful elders of the mountain gate headquarters, it could control the arrays of all third-tier cities under the Reverse Spirit Blood Sect.
Although it cannot completely control the fourth-order grand formation, it can also prevent it from harming it, as it can identify it as one of its own.
Activating the formation would only be a waste of spiritual energy.
The woman in green was completely unaware.
He quickly activated his Wind Release technique, and with a flick of his wrist, seven or eight hurricanes condensed into wind ropes, which then entangled him.
The demonic energy surged, but Wang Yu merely pushed it outwards.
The two fields of force directly compressed the air, forming two shields that pushed away all the wind and the illusion of the moon flashed in his eyes.
Even with the enhancement of a mid-stage fourth-order divine sense, Qingyi was momentarily stunned.
Such an opportunity.
The Ice Dragon Flame erupted high in the sky, transforming into a long ice flame dragon that grabbed the man in green and crashed into the city lord's mansion square, exploding with a deafening roar.
Sea urchin-like ice spikes suddenly erupted.
The entire Meiling City Lord's Mansion was destroyed, and the world seemed to have turned into a frozen hell. The power of the spells enhanced by demonic energy was the true form of the Ice Dragon Flame.
The third level of the Nascent Soul stage is nothing special.
"Ancestor!"
Upon seeing this, Feng Hua, the city lord of Meiling, was greatly alarmed. He had already activated a token in his hand, and the fourth-order array was enough to protect the entire central city area.
The core of the formation is not so easy to destroy.
It was naturally and smoothly stimulated.
Wang Yu couldn't discern anything from this formation; he could only see long, blue snakes descending from the sky, transforming into ninety-nine wind pillars that connected heaven and earth, with multiple wind pillar nodes appearing in the city.
But most of them are outside the city.
"Use a defensive counter-attack formation against me?"
Although Wang Yu couldn't see through the formation instantly, he could still identify its type based on its appearance. This type of formation was the easiest to break through from the inside.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Obviously.
The old ancestor in green robes had a different opinion. He was burning to the point of near death from the flames of the Ice Dragon Pill. His magnificent green robes had become tattered and black, and his once human-like long beard had been destroyed.
He pulled out a long ruler and pointed it at Wang Yu.
"This formation can restrain Nascent Soul cultivators from the outside, and... it can also bind you from within. Wind and Splendor - Crystallized Gale!"
Such an order.
Wang Yu suddenly noticed a tornado forming around him. He was in the eye of the storm, where the dense wind magic energy transformed into a hurricane and even crystallized.
They were actually trying to completely seal Wang Yu away.
After briefly extending his divine sense to confirm that the Seventh Elder's ring was fine, he immediately revealed a look of horror.
"Fellow Daoist in green robes, let's talk this over."
"hehe--"
The storm demonic energy around Qingyi was boiling, and her natal magic weapon, the Azure Ruler, began to condense a special divine power with excessive power. She did not forget to mock Wang Yu.
"You only realize your mistake when you're about to die! You're just afraid of dying!"
"Ice Demon, you only have the mentality of getting rich overnight, instead of the true demeanor of a Nascent Soul expert. How laughable."
Wang Yu's lips curled up in a smile.
Trash talk goes in one ear and out the other.
With only the image of Qingyi gathering power in his eyes, in less than a third of a second, he suddenly unleashed the purple Aurora Escape Technique, transforming into thousands of illusory bodies that fled in all directions.
The Illusionary Mist Ice Mirror condensed simultaneously. This was the first time he had used this defensive technique, but he used it as a means of deception, manipulating the illusionary body to synchronize with himself.
They directly surrounded the city lord's mansion, forming an inverted bowl-shaped ice mirror world. This was mainly to block the view from the outside and the creatures inside the city lord's mansion.
They were all reduced to ashes under the bombardment of his Ice Dragon Flame.
The only two survivors were the city lord and the man in blue.
This is the power of the Nascent Soul stage!
Witnessing Wang Yu move freely amidst the changes in the fourth-order grand formation, the old ancestor in green robes trembled, his eyes filled with disbelief.
【Wind-Slaying Giant Spirit Sword Aura】This divine power is unparalleled, capable of unleashing power beyond its realm, but its drawback is that it requires charging up, and interruption in the middle may even cause internal injuries.
That's why Qingyi had Fenghua use an array to seal off Wang Yu's movement space before charging up her power. The procedure was correct, but the array, which had never made a mistake before, failed.
My mind is filled with impossible thoughts.
Who can move freely within the formation? The formation master who set up the formation, the token holder, one's own people, and the elders of the Holy Sect!
The first two are impossible, the latter two... Qingyi was suddenly startled.
"You were able to quickly crack the recognition effect of the formation."
"Ice Demon! Are you perhaps a peerless genius skilled in both alchemy and array formation?!"
"nonsense."
Too lazy to bother with Qingyi anymore, and using the Illusionary Mist Ice Mirror to block the outside world's prying eyes, it proved that Wang Yu was going to use some methods that no one could know about.
These methods, once employed, would greatly enhance Wang Yu's reputation.
The man in green would definitely recognize her within a few breaths.
Therefore... it must be a fatal blow, without even giving the Nascent Soul a chance to activate the teleportation technique, and the demonic energy within the body simultaneously flows to different parts of the body.
The various supernatural abilities were used one after the other, with less than half a breath's difference between them.
first.
The combination of the Soul-Destroying Death Ray and the Immobilization Mirror is a deadly combo that can be called a sure-kill move for Core Formation cultivators. After he broke through to the fourth level of divine sense, very few people could stop him.
But the Nascent Soul stage is an exception!
Even though his body was unable to move, the man in green exhaled divine light, and several needle-shaped magical artifacts shot out from under his tongue, radiating a rich aura of divine soul.
This is one of his advantages.
With a wealth of experience and skillful use of fourth-tier magic treasures, and given the Yougu Feng clan's resources and the fact that there are only two Nascent Soul cultivators within the clan, having a fully equipped set of magic treasures is a basic requirement.
Based on this, Wang Yu still needs to estimate Qingyi's survival methods and desperate trump cards. He has a chance to win against the odds! But to kill the opponent... is extremely difficult.
But he still wanted to give it a try.
"The Divine Splitter Needle is specifically designed to counter divine sense!"
The blue-robed figure facing the sky revealed a mocking expression. The Azure Ruler's power-gathering phase was nearing its end, and Wang Yu no longer hesitated.
The Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet suddenly emerged from an ice mirror.
The Cursed Sword of the Underworld Burial Site - Horizontal Slash!
"Yellow Springs...View!"
Qingyi had clearly misunderstood. That's how human puppets are; their aura is very similar to that of living people, not to mention that Wang Yu was wearing a blood sac robe over it.
At this moment, the Green-Clad Ancestor misjudged Wang Yu's identity. Under pressure from the reputation of the Bankruptcy Divine Power, he activated a talisman.
Fourth-tier Rune Treasure - Wind King Slash!
Wang Yu had seen this supernatural power before, but it was clearly one of the life-saving secrets left by the Feng clan's ancestors. The turbid yellow bone sword collided with the gale giant sword.
Both were annihilated simultaneously.
The Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet was swept away by the aftershocks, and the City Lord's Mansion also collapsed completely, even sinking several meters in, making it impossible to see the once prosperous scene.
At that time.
The old patriarch in green robes had just come to his senses when suddenly the veins on his forehead bulged, and an immense sense of crisis enveloped him.
A crimson sword beam that seemed to stretch across the ages.
It came slashing vertically.
No matter how he dodged, he seemed unable to avoid it.
This is one of Wang Yu's trump cards.
The fourth-tier Killing Path Divine Power, Blood Slaughtering Heart Sword, has advanced to the final stage of its entry level, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it has reached the minor completion stage. It is a meticulously planned sword strike.
It also inflicts devastating damage on the mind and body.
"—Ancient Ancestor, save me!"
With a loud shout, even though he was reluctant at the critical moment of life and death, he decisively abandoned his supernatural powers and gathered strength. A green talisman shot out from between his eyebrows and transformed into a giant bell to block the sword light for him.
I furiously wrote 4,000 words in the middle of the night, and 8,000 today—not a small number!
