Chapter 222 Robbery
Yun Du had already blocked his sister's way. Yun Fei had jumped down from the rock crevice several dozen feet away to pick high-grade spiritual herbs from this place. She quickly put away the herbs and flew back up.
The purple-robed cultivator at the head glanced at the three of them, stared at Yun Yi for a few more moments, and then sneered dismissively:
"Hahaha, but you only have one Golden Core cultivator and two Foundation Establishment cultivators. For the sake of this little beauty, I'll give you a chance to hand over the demon beast's inner core and the spiritual medicine under the rock—the Rejuvenation Pagoda."
As he spoke, he gazed meaningfully at Yun Yi behind Yun Du.
The Spirit Restoration Pagoda is the spiritual herb that Yun Fei just picked. It looks like a transparent pagoda and, as the name suggests, can be used to refine spiritual pills to restore the health of those suffering from severed meridians.
Hearing the man's arrogant words, Yun Du's face hardened. "You're courting death? Then let's see if my brother and I can kill you."
Yun Fei didn't take this cultivator seriously. She couldn't believe there was someone even more insolent than him in the world. She immediately sneered, "Take this!"
As he spoke, he activated the defensive magic artifact and threw it out, along with a large number of high-grade thunderstorm talismans.
!
The purple-robed cultivator was surprised by his decisiveness and wealth. He had initially thought it was a magical artifact attacking him, but it turned out to be a self-destruction of the artifact. His pupils contracted, and he quickly erected a shield.
The other two faced more than a dozen talismans. Taking advantage of their distraction, Yun Du attacked the two weaker Golden Core cultivators.
Knowing that a quick victory was needed, Yun Yi swiftly grabbed talismans and magical artifacts and followed Yun Fei to bombard the area, buying time for Yun Du.
After all, the opponent has three Golden Core cultivators. If the fight drags on, Yun Du will have a hard time dealing with them. Moreover, Leng Huan once said that you never know what kind of unpredictable methods the opponent might have. It's best to strike first and gain the upper hand.
Yun Du drew lightning with his sword, condensing it into a sword aura. He gripped the sword with both hands and slashed down at the purple-robed cultivator: "Break!"
These people didn't expect them to be so willing to sacrifice their lives. They didn't form a shield at the beginning, and now they are being bombarded so much that they have no chance to deal with Yun Du.
Oh no! Sensing the approaching danger, the group had no choice but to focus on activating their defenses.
Yun Yi suddenly remembered what her mother had said: to deal with high-level cultivators, just use the attack talismans that sealed her mother and father to blow them up.
They said they didn't want the siblings to be as poor as they were when they were young...struggling to make ends meet.
"Go to hell!" Yun Yi unleashed an attack talisman used by a high-level cultivator.
Having successfully blocked the attack, the purple-robed cultivator was gloating that his men were unharmed, assuming that Yun Du and the others had no means of attack and were out of ideas. However, the next moment he was met with a devastating disaster of purple light obscuring the sun.
"This is bad, this is the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator, just who are they...?"
They felt an incredibly terrifying and oppressive aura descend upon them. In an instant, the purple-robed cultivator and his companions were enveloped by a three-zhang-wide purple light barrier, which then shattered.
Golden shields shone on Yun Du and the others, the special restrictions inherent in their defensive magic artifacts sensing and dissipating the aftershocks of the attack.
Yun Fei gaped, gasping for breath after a long pause: "So powerful! This is Father's attack..."
With her almond-shaped eyes wide open, Yun Yi stammered, "I, I, I accidentally took the wrong one. I should have taken the one my mother made earlier..."
At least a Nascent Soul stage attack should leave a whole corpse, right? She'd long wanted to double-cross someone, like in the legends, kill and set fires... uh, no.
"..." Yun Du looked at the several hundred meters of barren land in front of him, which had been cleaved by lightning. There was no one there.
"No way, could they all have vanished into thin air?" Yun Feifei went over to examine the area closely. The ground was charred black. He kicked the spot where the cultivator had been standing. "There really is nothing left... Wait a minute!"
Something emerged from the soil beneath his feet. He crouched down and picked it up. "What's this? Hmm... a bracelet?"
Yun Yi's eyes lit up: "What is it? Let me see!"
“This should be the storage artifact of the Purple Robe Golden Core cultivator…” Yun Du walked over, looked at the bronze bracelet on his younger brother’s hand, and nodded: “Not bad, it’s fine even after its master died, so it should be of good quality. Let me take a look.”
"Here, it has a powerful divine imprint on it, I can't open it." Yun Fei tried it and handed the ring to her elder brother.
"This is a soul imprint left by a high-level cultivator. It cannot be opened easily. Let's take it back and show it to Mother."
Yun Du frowned: "It seems that guy has a high-level cultivator protecting him..."
Yun Yi snorted coldly. She was disgusted by the way that man had looked at her just now. "No wonder he was so arrogant and domineering!"
Yun Fei clapped his hands. "Don't worry, keeping this kind of person around is just asking for trouble. He's like a lecher. If the old man dares to come, it'll be good for Mother to have some fun." He was more like a spoiled brat who relied on his parents to act recklessly.
Living Nascent Soul cultivators are all in seclusion in caves; they're not commonly seen outside. What he said isn't wrong.
Yun Du remained noncommittal, his divine sense sweeping over the surroundings. Finding no outsiders, he said, "Let's go first. This commotion might attract attention."
Moments after they left, some monks arrived to investigate and found the scene of horrific devastation.
My heart skipped a beat. It was like gods were fighting! Run!
...
Outside the secret realm, Leng Huan was unaware that his little darling was trying to amuse himself.
While processing materials according to the illustrated manual of puppetry, he was also imagining what shape to make.
"Let's do a small experiment first... and see how it goes. How about making a mini version of Electric Shock Kid?"
"It's cute, but it's not easy to do, hmm..."
Bang...bang bang, strange explosions echoed in the cave for several days in a row, but fortunately no one else knew about it.
Six months later, Leng Huan finally produced a finished product, but it was far from the small card he had imagined, and it didn't look like it at all.
Round head, two alarm clock ears, left and right semi-circular wings... its body was pitch black. Leng Huan hesitated for a second, took out a little moonstone, and prepared to dye it.
So, after the cave continued to make a lot of noise for a few days, Leng Huan finally succeeded, she thought.
"Peach blossoms in March... a sea of red..."
Humming a little tune, Leng Huan looked at the three pink "alarm clock cards" flying into the air with satisfaction, and smiled happily.
Success!
Secret exit.
Leng Huan had been waiting here for several days in advance. He glanced at the cultivators who had arrived nearby and saw that they were all behaving normally and staying in their own camps.
Many cultivators who had traveled from afar set up camp here, while others, like Leng Huan, waited around the mountains.
There are some Nascent Soul cultivators, most of them are Core Formation cultivators, and there are also many rogue cultivators from other forces. There are always people who enter this secret realm alone, so some of these people outside may have ulterior motives.
The cultivation world is dangerous. Without the protection of elders, many low-level cultivators are robbed and killed every day.
In other words, cultivators perish every day—eaten by demonic beasts, killed by human cultivators, killed by demonic forces, trapped, struck by lightning…
Therefore, every step of the path to immortality is a cultivator's destiny, and high-level cultivators are all fighting against the heavens.
Suddenly, the space fluctuated, and the secret realm opened its exit.
In an instant, everyone became secretly on guard, while countless cultivators flew out from the exit.
"Mother!"
The siblings landed together, and Leng Huan greeted them as they boarded the cloud boat. "Did nothing happen?"
Just as Yun Du was about to answer, "Shh!" Suddenly, Leng Huan frowned, condensed a divine sense sword, and slashed at the divine sense that had been tracking them!
