Volume 2: Desolate Wilderness Chapter 31: Spirit Symbol Strategy

  "Kill him."

  A man with the surname Nan Gong spat out three words from his mouth, raised his hand and launched a flying sword of middle-grade artifact level, controlling the sword light to slash towards Chu Yi fiercely.

  "The Hundred Thunder Seal" did not disappoint Chu Yi's expectations, the purple thunder flashed continuously, and the opponent's flying sword had just reached halfway before being shaken to a halt by a series of astonishingly destructive thunderclaps.

  At the same time, a woman with the surname Liu and another man with the surname Yang also separately flew out their swords, forming a triangular formation as they approached Chu Yi.

  "It's no wonder that the Supreme Mysterious Origin Sect is one of the top nine sects, even a small Opening Enlightenment Period cultivator like him has such wealth. Damn it, this 'Hundred Thunder Symbol' is worth two thousand spirit stones!"

  The Nan Gong surname man was shocked at Chu Yi's explosive fighting power as a small repairman in the opening period, but he wasn't too worried.

  After all, their advantages were too obvious, and the overall strength of the three of them was far superior to that of their opponents. It wasn't something that could be offset by just a few precious spirit symbols.

  Outmatched one against three, or rather three cultivators whose realms were clearly higher than his own, Chu Yi naturally didn't dare to be arrogant. The spirit talismans in his hand were used without regard for cost, and with a burst of wild strikes, thunder boomed and flames scorched the earth, forcing his opponents completely onto the back foot.

  "How could he possibly have so many spirit symbols?"

  "How can his true yuan power be so endless..."

  "Could it be that he's encountered a ruthless character who can pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger, and his cultivation is far beyond the initial stage of enlightenment..."

  Three people launched a full-scale attack, but were unexpectedly suppressed by Chu Yi and beaten. This also made the three people break out in cold sweat, with many questions popping up in their minds.

  It's no wonder that the three of them would think this way, after all, for cultivators from small sects like themselves, over a thousand spirit stones is an extremely large sum of wealth. Who would have thought that Chu Yi, a small cultivator they looked down on, was actually incredibly wealthy?

  A spiritual talisman was smashed, Chu Yi only felt refreshing and exhilarating. Relying on the advantage of his strong and long-lasting divine yuan force, he didn't worry about running out of energy at all. He was originally worried that the opponent had some hidden tricks, so he reserved a third of his strength to be prepared.

  It turns out that the three cultivation realms in front of him are obviously higher than his own, and apart from having a low-quality flying sword each, they don't have any other means of attack.

  Finally, Chu Yi's last "Hundred Thunder Talisman" was thrown out, and the flying sword was damaged. The man with the surname Nangong urged the true yuan force, suddenly advancing forward, and the thunder in his palm was violently thrown out, taking advantage of the rare opportunity to attack Chu Yi for the first time.

  A loud explosion sounded.

  At the moment when the palm thunder exploded, a yellowish-brown barrier appeared in front of Chu Yi, effortlessly rendering the opponent's inevitable attack into nothingness.

  "Damn it, it's a Divine Seal!"

  A man with the surname Nan Gong had a drastic change in his complexion, panting and shouting: "Liu Shimei, Yang Shidi, form the sword array! His Hundred Thunder Seal and Blazing Flame Seal have been used up, exhausting his true yuan energy. Even if the divine seal's defensive power is strong, it will be useless."

  "Who says my spiritual symbols have been used up?"

  Chu Yi let out a disdainful smile, and the next moment, he, who had been empty-handed just before, pulled out two large handfuls of spirit symbols worth tens of thousands of spirit stones from his storage bag, leaving the Nan Gong man gasping for air.

  "How did this kid get so many spirit symbols? Why am I so unlucky, and just when I had the idea to kill him and steal his goods, I ran into such a freak."

  "Nangong Shixiong, his true yuan energy is already insufficient. No matter how many spirit symbols he has, they still require true yuan to activate. Don't be deceived by him."

  Seeing Nan Gong surname man seemed to have a retreating intention, Liu surname woman clenched her silver teeth and urged.

  Indeed, as the woman with the surname Liu had expected, he had consecutively used over a dozen powerful attacking spirit talismans, and although Chu Yishi cultivated the Divine Origin Power, his robustness far surpassed that of cultivators of the same rank, but by now, it had also been consumed to the point where he was left with only a little.

  But she was only half right and didn't expect that Chu Yi wouldn't need to worry about running out of spiritual energy at all.

  Just as the other party's voice fell, Chu Yi let out a cold laugh and swallowed the "Yi Xi Dan" that had been in his mouth all along. The fourth-grade Dao Dan was extraordinary in its effect, and after catalyzing the medicinal power, the divine yuan force inside his body surged violently.

  Another round of intense bombardment, thunder and fire arrived together, smashing the sword array that the three people had spent a huge amount of energy to set up, leaving them with no intact bodies.

  "What a monster!"

  From initial contempt to today's terror, the three people's perception of Chu Yi has undergone a fundamental shift.

  "Go."

  At this moment, the three of them had been fighting for a long time and their consumption was also extremely great. The man with the surname Nan Gong finally spat out the word "leave", not because the temptation of the top-grade treasure was not enough, nor was it that they were not persistent enough, but because Chu Yi was too difficult to deal with.

  To continue on, let alone take down Chu Yi, it would be difficult for the three of them to retreat unscathed under the opponent's spiritual symbol bombardment.

  "Who dares to lay hands on a member of the Supreme Mysterious Yang Sect and then just leave?"

  "Kill!"

  After barely escaping Chu Yi's cost-free spiritual symbol attack, the three of them turned around to retreat when they heard two voices that were all too familiar with Chu Yi.

  "Instant Slash Technique—Destroy—"

  Lu Wanjian, who had already recovered his energy, appeared behind the Yang man like a ghost, his sword flashing like a rainbow, and a good head flew off.

  "Hachimon Tonkou-ken——Kai——"

  A single word "kill", shocking the heart, Wang Bei's fist slammed into the ground, and a man with the surname Nan Gong, thirty feet in front of him, was suddenly blown away by a massive force from under the earth, his body losing balance in mid-air.

  Right after that, a "Hundred Thunder Seal" slammed down, with purple lightning wildly booming, not giving him any chance to dodge, and his entire body was blasted into charcoal.

  The miserable cry of the same door startled the Liu surname woman, and she fled into the dense forest without caring about anything. Lu Wanjian's figure was like a sharp arrow as he chased after her, with a hundred layers of sword shadows surging up, instantly killing the former in just a snap of his fingers.

  ————————————————————————

  This life-and-death experience has brought about a huge change in this group of adventurers who were forced to work together under the leadership of Da Xuan Yang Que. The seven people have developed an unspoken understanding and trust, although they still can't be said to be perfectly coordinated, but their unity and cooperation are definite.

  Especially Chu Yi, Lu Wan Jian and Wang Bei Kun, after joining forces to kill three robbers who set fire, the sense of trust among them soared, and they became sworn brothers. After all, a life-and-death friendship is always easier to become true friends.

  Chu Yi's initial cultivation at the beginning of Kai Guang was quite impressive, and his ability to resist two fusion period cultivators and one spiritual movement period cultivator left a deep impression on everyone, including Xie Pianpian.

  If it were any other cultivator, it would be impossible to save everyone with such a huge gap in strength. However, Chuyi managed to do so. Think about it, if Chuyi hadn't desperately held off those three cultivators, this seven-man team might have been annihilated by now.

  Apart from being amazed at Chu Yi's inexhaustible spiritual symbols and his cultivation power that far surpassed those of the same rank, what made people even more astonished was that after the battle with Youquan Wang Hui, the arrogant and willful Xie Fei Fei had a one hundred and eighty degree change in her attitude towards Chu Yi.

  The latter's gentle and obedient appearance in front of Chu Yi made people wonder if Xie Pianpian was still himself.

  Due to the commotion from the previous battle with Youquan Wang Hui, three of the seven "Luo Lions" that were originally tied up in a distant place were so frightened that they broke free and escaped, leaving only two people to ride one lion.

  Xie Xiangxue unceremoniously wrapped herself around Chu Yi, not caring whether he was willing or not, and sat down behind him, her arms tightly encircling Chu Yi, this scene really made one's imagination run wild.

  If it were an ordinary person, they would either be flattered or have a big reaction, but Chu Yi was very calm about it.

  After what had happened before, he already had a deep understanding of Xie Qianqian's temperament. Since this girl liked others to be rough with her, Chu Yu was no longer treating her as the young lady who needed to be pampered and indulged.

  Xie Pianpian didn't mind Chu Yi's cruelty either, on the contrary, the more fiercely Chu Yi treated him, the more he clung to her, without any of his former haughty and proud demeanor.

  "After passing through this forest, we will arrive at Huoyun Valley, one of the five major resource points shown on the map."

  With a flick of his wrist, Xie Qianqian unfolded the clear route map bought with over a thousand spirit stones, and Lu Wanjian, who was leading the way, said excitedly.
