Chapter 488: Chapter 292 Night Daoist, you wouldn’t want all the female cultivators of Piaomiao Palace to die here, would you_1
In no time, numerous Nascent Soul Cultivators began to consider Zhou Sui’s conditions.
After all, they had been trapped for several years and were eager to leave.
Even if the conditions were a bit high, it didn’t mean they couldn’t agree.
“What?! Early-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators each have to pay five thousand Spirit Stones of high quality, mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators have to pay ten thousand Spirit Stones of high quality, and late-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators need to pay fifty thousand Spirit Stones of high quality? Not to mention a large amount of fourth stage materials and fifth stage materials. Are you bloody robbing us, you damn thief?”
After hearing Zhou Sui’s conditions, the face of the Sea-splitting Demon King, the head of Heisha Palace, turned completely green.
Although they were prepared mentally, thinking this mysterious person would certainly ask for the moon, they never expected this scoundrel to be even greedier than they anticipated.
You should know, the Spirit Stones of high quality are extremely precious strategic resources.
Even the treasuries of the Nascent Soul powers had only a few of these Spirit Stones.
But this scoundrel was demanding thousands and tens of thousands of them.
Clearly, he intended to suck their blood, eat their flesh, and leave them dry and clean.
Even if the Sea-splitting Demon King, a late-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, thought these conditions were incredibly excessive.
If they really agreed to these terms, it is likely that the treasury of Heisha Palace would take a substantial hit.
“Oh, I am indeed robbing you. Didn’t my words just now make that clear?”
“Or do you think that your lives are more precious than these worldly goods?”
“You also don’t want to die here and let your sect fall into decline, do you?”
Zhou Sui stated indifferently.
What?!
At these words, the faces of the many Nascent Soul Cultivators turned ugly, clearly understanding this despicable and shameless man had hit their Achilles’ heel. Even if they didn’t consider themselves, they had to consider their factions.
They were the mainstay of major powers, the central pillars. If they all were trapped or even died here, they wouldn’t know what would happen to their sects.
Perhaps they would soon be annihilated by competing powers.
“Everyone, don’t be afraid of this scoundrel.”
“He’s just trying to frighten us.”
“In my opinion, this fellow has no power to kill us whatsoever.”
“At most, he can manipulate a Fifth Stage formation to trap us, that’s all.”
“If he truly could completely control all of the Divinity Transformation formations, he would have wiped us out long ago.”
“Why would he need to wait until now to strike?”
“Just a mere formation, given time, we can surely break it.”
“There’s no need to fear his threats, are we made out of malleable clay?”
A Nascent Soul Cultivator at the mid-stage stage ranted.
He was a Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator from Heisha Palace, and had a fiery temperament.
At the same time, he didn’t believe this man who was hiding had any particular abilities.
If he were really so powerful, he would have shown himself openly rather than hiding behind a façade.
Thinking a few words could make them pay thousands or tens of thousands of high-quality Spirit Stones as a ransom was simply a pie in the sky dream.
Boom~~
Just at that moment, Zhou Sui issued a thought, immediately activating the Fifth Stage high-order formation, the Four Phases of Ku Rong, which covered the whole island, while gathering the vast power of the Fifth State Spirit Vein within it.
It seemed that the shadows of the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Black Tortoise, the Four Divine Beasts, appeared above the island.
A ray of azure light descended from the sky and in an instant, moving as fast as light, struck the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator.
“Ah!”
Immediately, the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator couldn’t help but let out a shrill scream. He found his life rapidly fading away, as if his lifespan was being stripped from him.
His originally jet-black hair was turning white.
His smooth skin was beginning to wrinkle.
A hint of decay seemed to spread from him.
Boom~~
But this was only the beginning, two or three more azure rays descended, incessantly striking the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator. Despite him trying his utmost to resist, he couldn’t stand against this power.
In an instant, the breath of this Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator stopped abruptly, turning into a withered corpse, looking haggard as he lay on the ground, his lifespan exhausted and dead.
“This!”
The other Nascent Soul Cultivators narrowed their pupils, their hairs on end, giving them a cold, shivering feeling.
They watched helplessly as a mid-stage Nascent Soul Cultivator was miserably killed here, turning into a mummified corpse.
Nor had he any means to resist.
Each of those azure rays, it seemed, totally ignored the numerous defensive talismans. They easily entered the body of the Nascent Soul Cultivator.
At this moment, they truly experienced the terror of this mysterious person.
Clearly, he wasn’t exaggerating— far from it.
He certainly had the capacity to kill all of them here.
“I believe that if you have read the classics of my Ku Rong Sect, you already understand what just happened.”
“What occurred was the activation of the Four Phases of Ku Rong, a fifth-stage high-ranking formation of the Ku Rong Sect.”
“And this formation has only one ability— to strip the lifespan of a Cultivator.”
“Once you’re struck by the Ku Rong Mysterious Light, it strips away a hundred years of your life.”
“Just now, that comrade had quite a long lifespan and was hit by the Ku Rong Mysterious Light five times, consuming five hundred years of life. Only then did he die of old age.”
“If any of you still have complaints, you’re welcome to step forward and experience the power of my Ku Rong Sect’s Four Phases of Ku Rong.”
Zhou Sui said indifferently.
“This!”
