Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 942: Chapter 942 Livestock Treatment

Angry martial artists wanted to overwhelm the armored man by sheer numbers.

However, as many as leaped forward, that many were blasted back.

Each one fell to the ground, groaning without end.

”How is that possible?”

Everyone was astonished and could not comprehend.

Even if the armor had the effect of enhancing combat strength, it shouldn’t be so defying, right? Could the simultaneous attack of hundreds of Heavenly Realm Martial Artists really have no effect, only to get injured instead?

”No need to waste your energy,” that armor is not just any magical treasure; it’s a part of this vast Ancient Array System. Don’t look at this person’s low cultivation level; he can draw upon the power of the entire Ancient Array. With equivalent cultivation, no matter how many of you there are, you won’t be able to defeat him,” Ling Xiao said loudly, ”Unless a martial artist with a higher cultivation level comes along, only then can this predicament be resolved, or by breaking the Ancient Array and stealing his armor.”

”No wonder these guys didn’t let martial artists with Five Elements Heaven Level Cultivation come over. They have been guarding against our rebellion all along, damn it.”

”Hehehe, a bunch of fools; enjoy your time here. We’re going to take our leave now.”

The first mate had not actually left, but was there watching everyone’s misfortune.

”You bastard, you really do enjoy seeing these people’s helpless pain; quite a dark psyche you have,” the armored man said with a laugh.

”That’s right, I enjoy watching them struggle in vain,” the first mate did not shy away from his thoughts.

”Is that so? Today, maybe you’ve done enough evil and deserve to be punished,” Ling Xiao revealed a cold smile.

Playing with array formations against him was like bringing an axe to a class on door-making.

Even though the Ancient Array System here was powerful, the people here hadn’t fully understood it.

So Ling Xiao could still find flaws and loopholes.

While these weren’t enough for him to escape, killing this first mate who had set them up was still possible.

”With just you?”

Before the first mate could finish his sentence, he suddenly found a beautiful plum blossom mark on his throat.

Then, with an incredulous expression, he collapsed backward onto the ground.

This was a joint strike by Ling Xiao and Leng Mei.

A perfect combination of Leng Mei’s strength and Ling Xiao’s knowledge.

One to find the loophole in the array formation, the other to attack.

Leng Mei was at the Late Stage of the Four Symbols Heavenly Realm, while the first mate was at the Pinnacle. Unprepared, he was killed.

It all made perfect sense.

The first mate’s two aides did not escape their deathly fate either; both had curious holes in their chests as if drilled open by a giant cone, with blood pouring out.

Naturally, that was Ling Xiao’s Shadow Cone.

With no shadow in its coming and no trace in its leaving, killing two martial artists of Trinity Heaven cultivation was easy.

The armored man stared intently at Ling Xiao, then suddenly burst into laughter, ”Indeed, I underestimated you all, especially you, kid.

You’ve been marking them from the beginning, haven’t you?”

”That’s correct,” Ling Xiao said indifferently.

If he suspected the first mate of foul play, he’d naturally have to prepare. Therefore, he had left a Soul Imprint on the bodies of the first mate and his two men.

This was also one of the reasons his attacks were so precise and on point.

”Clap, clap, clap!”

The armored man clapped his hands and said, ”How did you realize something was wrong with him?”

”It’s quite simple, from the moment we entered the water channel, I knew we couldn’t get out—that we were trapped here. This place is bound by a special ancient array system. I guess the means of leaving must be controlled by you all on Pixiu Island, right?”

Ling Xiao retorted.

”Remarkable! Truly remarkable! If your cultivation level weren’t so poor, I might have mistaken you for a disguised expert from a senior generation.”

The armored man genuinely admired Ling Xiao.

”You flatter me. After all, I discovered it too late. If I had become aware of your plan earlier, perhaps things wouldn’t have come to this. Fortunately, at the very least, I’ve brought someone else down with me, which makes it worthwhile.”

Ling Xiao said indifferently.

”Oh? You know about our plan?”

The armored man was even more surprised.

”There’s nothing much to it. As far as I know, the production of Heavenly Elemental Crystals is extremely difficult, requiring a special environment. The moment I entered this place, I understood that you need so many Heavenly Realm Martial Artists as slaves—you need us to craft Heavenly Elemental Crystals for you, don’t you?”

Ling Xiao spoke coldly.

”Hahaha, what a pity, such a pity. It’s too bad you’re an outsider, not one of our Pixiu Island’s own; otherwise, I would really like to be friends with you. Everything you’ve said is correct, but so what? Once you’re here, you don’t even have the right to die. You must become our slaves.”

The armored man laughed uproariously. ”No, to be precise, you should be our livestock, bred to use your own Heavenly Origin Power to produce Heavenly Elemental Crystals for us!”

”Scoundrels!”

The Martial Artists were seething with anger, but there was nothing they could do faced with the armored man.

”Hehe, you still have the energy to curse now, but soon enough you’ll obediently become our livestock, hahaha.”

After the armored man finished speaking, he just folded his arms across his chest and waited.

After a while, a group of people arrived, all clad in armor, and their strength was much weaker than the armored man waiting here—only at the Trinity Heaven cultivation level.

”Take them away.”

The armored man ordered.

”Yes, Captain!”

As they walked, the armored man spoke again: ”Actually, Pixiu Island is quite enlightened. This place is a treasure land. Thanks to the ancient array system, Martial Artists from the Heavenly Man Realm and the Cave Heaven Realm can make Heavenly Elemental Crystals on their own. As long as you craft enough crystals to hand over to Pixiu Island, you can leave.”

”You can leave?”

Someone asked in surprise.

”That’s right. Once you’ve crafted at least a hundred thousand low-grade Heavenly Crystals, or an equivalent amount of mid-grade Heavenly Elemental Crystals, you can leave safely.”

The armored man said this with a face full of mockery.

”Martials Artists like us, how many Heavenly Elemental Crystals can we typically craft in a month?”

Ling Xiao asked.

”A Martial Artist with One-line Heaven Cultivation could be proud to make even one piece a month—hm, though your cultivation isn’t great, your Heavenly Origin Power feels quite pure; you could probably craft ten pieces a month.”

The armored man thought aloud.

”Ten pieces a month, that’s over three thousand in a year. Even if I don’t hand anything over to you, it would take over thirty years to meet the goal.”

Ling Xiao frowned. ”Are you playing with us?”

”That’s right, I am playing with you, so what? I just wanted to tell you that once you’re here, don’t even think about leaving because there’s no chance.”

The armored man looked down on Ling Xiao with disdain.

”Damn it, Pixiu Island is so treacherous!”

”Who’s to blame for us being foolish, falling right into the trap.”

”Damnation, now we’re ruined.”

The Martial Artists were all furious, but thinking back to the scene of the armored man’s attack, they all wilted.

Especially Xi Men Bo, who was previously so proud and self-satisfied, had completely lost his spirit since learning they had been deceived.

He hadn’t harassed Ling Xiao in all this time.
