Chapter 188 Wang Xiu: Why Is Fellow Daoist So Generous? (4000)
Chapter 188: Wang Xiu: Fellow Daoist, why are you so generous? (4000)
In the forest.
The chief disciple of the Knife Lineage touched the back of his head and looked at the array runes rising around him. He then looked down and realized, "Did we step into a trap?"
The rest of the people were speechless.
You just realized?
This array is fierce and terrifying, emitting invisible icy coldness that can even kill celestial beings in the sky.
It's unknown which genius set up this terrifying array.
Even though it hasn't fully activated, it's already enough to make people fearful.
They have been charging forward all the way, unstoppable against ancient creatures and fierce beasts. Gradually, they became complacent.
The young disciples like Xiang Kunlun were shouting and rushing forward.
Wang Xiu noticed that something was amiss here and warned them, but it was too late. Xiang Kunlun and a few young disciples had already stepped into the array.
The array activated, enveloping the surrounding space.
Wang Xiu sensed it silently and said in a deep voice, "This array is powerful. If we let Senior Brother Xiang stay in it alone, his life will be in danger. Let's go in and help him defend!"
He could feel that this array was extremely terrifying.
Even Nascent Soul stage cultivators could be directly killed.
Xiang Kunlun was a genius of the Three Purities, outstanding among his peers, and his knife skills were formidable. But it would still be difficult for him to hold on for long under this array.
If they broke the array from the outside, the people inside would probably die in a few breaths.
On the other hand, if they all entered the array to defend, it would be a different situation.
Hearing Wang Xiu's words, the people of the Three Purities didn't hesitate and collectively rushed into the array.
They then looked around vigilantly, their bodies emitting colorful radiance, ready to face the upcoming changes.
"It's the Immortal Extinction Array! Activated by the Array Disk..."
Among the crowd, a man in a silver robe with eyes shining with precious light, his body shining like jade, and runes flowing, recognized the details of this array.
He was Xiao Yu, the chief disciple of the Formation Lineage.
His attainments in arrays were extremely strong, and he had extensive knowledge from reading numerous books.
After observing for a while, Xiao Yu frowned and said, "Although this array is powerful, it's probably not enough to deal with so many of us! It doesn't seem like it's targeting us..."
Who would be so foolish to think that they could wipe out all the geniuses of the Three Purities Immortal Gate with just one array?
"Hehehe..."
Just then, a dark jade-colored light descended from the sky, spreading out a vast expanse of black Mysterious Light.
It turned into a figure wearing black clothes.
He had his back to the crowd and let out a cold laugh.
Shi Ming felt proud in his heart, thinking that he would soon be able to kill the only successor of the Divination Lineage here, and that the Heaven Peering Pavilion would rise. His face gradually became ferocious.
But when he turned around...
He found more than a hundred figures standing there, all looking at him curiously.
His whole body stiffened, and his scalp went numb.
What the f*ck!
What's going on?
Why are there so many people?
At this time, how could the Three Purities Immortal Gate mobilize over a hundred people?
Could it be that this generation of the Three Purities Immortal Gate is hiding dragons and crouching tigers, and all of them are peerless geniuses who can dominate their generation?
Impossible!
There must be something wrong!
His mind was in chaos, almost blank.
Before making a move...
He had calculated it very clearly.
Even if the opponent had Xiang Tiange and Li Zuimo, who possessed Law Treasures passed down by their sect, their strength couldn't be measured by common sense.
But once the Immortal Array is activated, even if the other side has more people, they will send out a dozen or so people!
He was also confident that he could kill Wang Xiu here and escape unscathed.
But he never expected that he would be facing over a hundred people!
What the hell is going on?
Could it be that I've lost my memory?
Isn't it only the seventh day of the opening of the Holy Realm? It's the seventeenth day?
Just as Shi Ming's mind was in a mess.
He suddenly saw that Li Zuiyue and the others on the opposite side had quietly taken out their Law Treasures, ready to make a move.
Shi Ming's heart skipped a beat, and his hair stood on end!
I'm such an idiot!
I should have hidden in the dark and manipulated the formation. Even if things didn't work out, I could still escape unharmed.
Why did I have to come out and show off!
I wanted the successor of the Divination Lineage to know who killed him!
I wanted to vent the frustration and unwillingness that Heaven Peering Pavilion has been suppressed for so many years!
And now!
These hundred or so people are rushing towards me, I'm afraid I'll be beaten to death in an instant!
At this moment, it's too late to leave.
His eyes darted around, and suddenly he shouted, looking around: "Who? Who set up this killing formation here and wants to ambush me? If you have the ability, come out and don't hide!"
Everyone: "..."
Shi Ming looked resolute and continued to rant at the air: "What? You only dare to ambush, but not show your face? The kind of sneaky little people like you are the ones I hate the most in my life!"
[Ding!]
[Detected someone bragging nearby, congratulations to the host for gaining +99 mana!]
The forest remained quiet.
Shi Ming was extremely nervous. The hundred or so people stood there, looking at him without saying a word, making him feel uneasy.
He knew that as long as he showed the slightest flaw, there would be a risk of being beaten to death.
He turned around and looked at Wang Xiu and the others, clasping his hands: "Fellow Daoists, did you see any sneaky figures around here just now?"
"Yes!" Huang Yunchong nodded and smirked: "It's you!"
Shi Ming tensed up and sneered: "Fellow Daoist, don't joke. Just like you, I accidentally fell into this killing formation!"
Li Zuiyue leaned against the sword sheath and squinted: "You set up this killing formation, right?"
Shi Ming broke out in a cold sweat, his heart pounding. His voice raised a few degrees: "How... how is that possible? I've never seen or heard of any Immortal Array Plate, how could I set it up?"
Xiao Yu's voice sounded faintly: "You've never heard of it, but you know it's an Immortal Array? And it was set up using an Array Plate?"
Shi Ming: "!!!"
"I... just heard you mention it when you were discussing it!" His mind raced, and he quickly said, "I've always despised such despicable means!"
[Ding!]
[Detected someone bragging nearby, congratulations to the host for gaining +99 mana!]
"Is that so?" Ji Zidian clearly didn't believe it, slowly stepping forward, thunder swirling around him, exuding a destructive aura, as if he could strike at any moment.
Shi Ming's body tensed up.
Just at that moment.
Wang Xiu stepped forward, dressed in white, like an exiled immortal, graceful and extraordinary. A layer of white jade-like radiance seemed to envelop him, making him appear divine.
This was the first time Shi Ming had a proper look at Wang Xiu.
As the most highly regarded direct disciple of the Heaven Peering Pavilion's sect master, he intended to compare himself with the successor of the Divination Lineage.
Now, in this direct confrontation, he could feel Wang Xiu's extraordinary aura.
In his heart, he couldn't help but sigh: "Damn, this kid is so handsome!"
Wang Xiu held Ji Zidian back.
With a smile on his face, he looked at Shi Ming: "Brother, there's no need to be nervous. My fellow disciples and I were just joking with you!"
Shi Ming glanced at Li Zuiyue, whose sword sheath was slightly open, revealing the unmatched sharpness that was ready to be unleashed.
I glanced at Ji Zidian, who was holding the Tian Guang Sword, surrounded by electric flashes and thunder.
I looked at the others, all ready to strike, as if they could unleash a thunderous blow at any moment, suppressing the Time Abyss.
I couldn't help but force a smile and laugh awkwardly, "Hehe!"
Wang Xiu chuckled, "So it seems that this Fellow Daoist has also been trapped in this killing formation like us!"
Time Abyss nodded repeatedly, "That's right, that's right!"
Wang Xiu nodded, "I thought so too. This killing formation hasn't been activated yet. It doesn't seem like it's ready to immediately kill anyone who enters. It's more like someone's formation plate accidentally fell out of their pocket and was unintentionally activated..."
Time Abyss's mouth twitched. Of course, he didn't immediately activate the killing formation. He had originally planned to pretend to be an ordinary person. If he directly activated the killing formation... he would be trapped in it as well.
This killing formation's formation plate doesn't distinguish between friend and foe.
He wasn't a formation master, and his control over formations hadn't reached that level.
Suddenly, Wang Xiu formed hand seals with both hands, and countless runes appeared in the sky. With a palm from Wang Xiu, they disappeared into the depths of the earth.
Buzz!
The void trembled lightly.
The runes of the killing formation converged and became invisible.
A formation plate the size of a palm, emitting a dark-colored radiance, shot out from the depths of the earth and landed in Wang Xiu's hand.
Wang Xiu played with the formation plate and felt that it was heavy and substantial, smooth and warm like jade, with an excellent texture.
It was clearly made of top-quality materials.
If it were in Vermilion Bird City, it could be sold for a sky-high price.
He looked satisfied, turned his head, and smiled at Ji Zidian and the others, "It seems that we are indeed lucky today. Not only did we obtain a large number of heavenly treasures, but we also happened to pick up such a treasure!"
Xiao Yu's eyes lit up, "Junior Brother Wang Xiu, do you also understand formations?"
Wang Xiu's move just now seemed simple, but it actually required a very good understanding of the essence of formations.
Xiao Yu pondered that even if he made a move, he wouldn't be able to do better than Wang Xiu.
Wang Xiu waved his hand and smiled, "I understand a little, just a little. Compared to Senior Brother Xiao, I'm definitely far behind!"
Xiao Yu sincerely said, "Junior Brother is too modest!"
Everyone was surprised. They didn't know much about Wang Xiu. They had only seen his astonishing proficiency in lightning techniques in Vermilion Bird City... It was said that he had reached an unfathomable realm and could guide the Saint Child of the Dragon-Tiger Immortal Gate.
But they didn't know that he was also proficient in formations.
Seeing this, even the chief disciple of the Formation Lineage acknowledged his high level of formation attainment?
Was he really a disciple of the Divination Lineage?
How could he be good at everything?
...
Time Abyss was also stunned by Wang Xiu's move.
Can it be done like this?
The treasure his master gave him was originally meant to kill Wang Xiu, but it ended up in Wang Xiu's hands like this.
Wang Xiu probed with his spiritual sense and said, "There is the spiritual imprint of the original owner on this formation plate. After erasing it, it can be used!"
Time Abyss hurriedly said, "Wait a minute!"
Wang Xiu was puzzled, "What's wrong?"
Everyone looked over, their eyes fixed, like towering mountains, making Time Abyss feel immense pressure.
Time Abyss swallowed his saliva and forced a dry smile, "Fellow Daoist, be careful. After all, this is a killing formation plate. If it is triggered, it won't be good..."
Wang Xiu smiled calmly, "I thought this formation plate belonged to Fellow Daoist!"
Time Abyss wanted to cry but had no tears. He had to show an indifferent appearance on the surface, "Hahaha, Fellow Daoist is really joking. How is that possible?"
"Don't worry, I'm just erasing the imprint. There won't be any risk. Even if something unexpected happens, there are so many of us here, we can handle it!"
As Wang Xiu spoke, his divine soul entered the formation plate and directly erased the spiritual imprint on it.
The imprint was erased.
Time Abyss could no longer sense the presence of the formation plate, so he wouldn't be harmed, but he felt heartbroken!
He endured the pain in his heart and smiled, "Thank you, Fellow Daoists, for helping me escape so easily. I still have something to do, so..."
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Xiu suddenly took a step forward, smiling and shaking his hand, "Fellow Daoist is too polite. We are all members of the righteous alliance, and we should advance and retreat together. It's really embarrassing to talk about gratitude... But since Fellow Daoist is so sincere, we really can't refuse. We have many people here, so you... just give a little something to each of us, as a token of appreciation!"
Shi Ming: ???
What?
What is it?
When did I say I wanted to give a gift?
You're making things up!
Before he could say anything, over a hundred people had already surrounded him, blocking his way.
"What? A gift? Oh, this is so embarrassing!"
"We didn't really do anything, Fellow Daoist, you're too polite!"
"Oh my, it's hard to refuse such kindness!"
"Just take it as a casual gesture, we're all easygoing!"
"..."
Shi Ming's vision went black, and he almost fainted.
He really wanted to cry!
Killing someone and taking their treasures, killing someone and taking their treasures!
Not only did they take his Immortal Array Plate, but now... they wanted to search his pockets!
Who are you people from the righteous sects?
You're nothing but locusts!
Seeing that he didn't react for a while, Li Zuiyue suddenly took out a sword from his sword sheath, slung it over his shoulder, and said with a rogue air, "Brothers, I see that this Fellow Daoist is in a difficult situation, so...
let's not force him, okay? Maybe he didn't intend to repay us?"
Clang!
Before he finished speaking, Xiang Tiange thrust his giant halberd into the ground, causing the earth to shake and startling the birds and beasts.
"Nonsense, this young brother doesn't seem like the ungrateful type at all. I, Xiang, would never be mistaken. For someone like him...
I'll just kill him with one strike of my halberd!"
Shi Ming suddenly felt a sense of danger and quickly said, "This senior brother is right, how could I be that kind of person? Everyone, you saved me, and this favor... I will definitely repay it no matter what!
It's just that I came out in a hurry this time and didn't bring much, so you see..."
He took out a storage bag from his waist, opened it and glanced inside. Before he could finish speaking, Xiang Tiange snatched it away.
"Hahaha, brother, you're too polite, how can this be?"
Shi Ming: !!!
Li Zuiyue stared at Shi Ming's waist, "Fellow Daoist, this belt of yours, if I'm not mistaken, it should be called 'Cang Hai Yue Ming,' right? A Spatial Law Treasure, capable of storage, it's quite valuable. It seems that Fellow Daoist has an extraordinary background...
I'm sure you can afford to buy an Immortal Array Plate!"
Shi Ming took a deep breath, and the smile on his face was uglier than crying, "What a joke, this belt of mine is not worth much, if you like it, I'll give it to you!"
Saying that, he endured the pain in his heart, transferred the contents stored in the belt to another place, and then took off the belt and handed it over.
Huang Yunchong's eyes rolled, "Fellow Daoist, these shoes of yours are also quite good, at least they're Middle Grade Spirit Weapons, right? They're not much cheaper than the Immortal Array Plate..."
Shi Ming: !!!
...
After a stick of incense.
"Fellow Daoist's generous repayment truly makes us feel ashamed!"
Wang Xiu smiled and casually patted Shi Ming's shoulder, a subtle Mysterious Light quietly passing by.
Shi Ming didn't notice at all.
Standing in place, his gaze vacant, feeling hopeless.
The Three Purities group left satisfied.
Everyone's complexion was rosy.
Feeling refreshed.
After a while, Shi Ming, wearing a leaf-made garment, shivered, "Bandits, they're all bandits!!!"
"My Cang Hai Yue Ming belt, my Meteor Moon Treading Boots, my Evil-Slaying Jade Ring, ah ah ah ah ah—"
"Three Purities Immortal Gate, I will never coexist with you!"
