Chereads / After 800 Years, I've Become The Taboo Lifeform / Chapter 9 - Captured in One Fell Swoop!

Chapter 9 - Captured in One Fell Swoop!

...

"So you're saying, that while you underwent your tribulation here, someone from Black Frost Demonic Sect accidentally passed by and was implicated. And that is why all the events that followed happened?"

After hearing Wei Bujuan's entire story.

Although Qiu Jinyu felt that something was amiss.

He did not suspect Wei Bujuan of lying.

"This Anti-work Mountain Man is decent in appearance, and has an elegant temperament. He doesn't seem like a person who's full of lies at all. Looks like what happened to Teacher Zhong was truly an accident!"

Qiu Jinyu sighed quietly.

He did not expect that after hiding so well.

Teacher Zhong was eventually taken down by a crazy demonic sect member, who wanted to die together under the heavenly tribulation!

The actual events were far from what they had thought!

"That's not good!"

"I must hurry and report this to Sect Leader Uncle. It will be terrible if they misjudge the movements of Black Frost Demonic Sect because of this!"

That was Qiu Jinyu's first thought.

However, as they spent time talking together.

He became reluctant to leave.

"Hmm...I mustn't be too rash either."

"I haven't inspected Teacher Zhong's body yet. What if this Anti-work Mountain Man is trying to trick me? Won't I be fooled due to my oversight?"

"Let me try to figure out his actual strength!"

Qiu Jinyu had a sudden change of mind.

He had found an excuse for himself.

Then he changed the topic and began to chat intimately with Wei Bujuan.

Putting aside the increasing intimacy.

Wei Bujuan did not dislike Qiu Jinyu either.

As an elite orthodox disciple, he was extremely knowledgeable and experienced.

Wei Bujuan had yet to establish any roots there after transmigration. A guide was just what he needed.

The two of them hit it off.

They chatted for the entire afternoon.

All the way till dusk.

After Wei Bujuan had hinted several times with his eyes.

Qiu Jinyu finally got up and bade farewell.

"Don't worry, I will definitely relay your words in full to Sect Leader. After this misunderstanding is cleared, I'll come back to visit..."

Wei Bujuan forced a smile.

He had only left out the part about the Eternal Elemental Lightning True Technique. Everything else he told Qiu Jinyu had been the truth.

Besides that.

He had even vaguely told Qiu Jinyu that the frequency of his tribulations would increase.

Green Cliff Mountain might be completely covered by tribulation clouds often in the future. That would be extremely dangerous for the other cultivators!

It was to avoid unnecessary trouble.

As to whether Huaqing Sect would really restrict its disciples from going near Green Cliff Mountain...

It was not something that Wei Bujuan could control.

...

"Hope it'll be quiet for a while!"

"My comprehension of Wind Lightning Fist has reached a bottleneck. I need time right now to break through it!"

As he watched as Qiu Jinyu's pure white conveyance light move further away.

Wei Bujuan let out a sigh of relief.

However, less than half a minute later.

...

[Your friend Qiu Jinyu has been attacked by Vice Branch Leader Gongyang Nian (your enemy) of Black Frost Demonic Sect!]

...

[Your friend Qiu Jinyu has been attacked by Elder Wu Rui (your enemy) of Black Frost Demonic Sect!]

...

[Your friend Qiu Jinyu has been attacked by Wei Feifei (your enemy) of Black Frost Demonic Sect!]

...

...

In an instant.

More than 100 messages flooded the screen!

Wei Bujuan was dumbfounded.

Exactly how many people were conducting a simultaneous attack on Qiu Jinyu?

Wait a minute...

Was that Black Frost Demonic Sect in full force?

Where were they now?

Wei Bujuan suddenly tensed up!

He snuck a glance at the tribulation clouds.

Eh?

Why wasn't there any activity from them this time?

"Could the location of the attack be too far from the tribulation clouds?"

Wei Bujuan grimaced.

"I wonder if Qiu Jinyu will be able to escape?"

...

[Your friend Qiu Jinyu was besieged and killed!]

...

Wei Bujuan shook his head.

That was exactly what the cultivation world was like!

The righteous killed the demonic, and the demonic killed the righteous.

People could die any moment!

"Before the completion of my 800-year lightning tribulation, I'd better just quietly stay in Clear Wind Temple!"

As he glanced at the charred corpses on both sides of the wall.

Wei Bujuan strengthened his resolve.

Just then.

He heard a weak voice -

...

"Mountain Man, save me!"

...

It was Qiu Jinyu!

Wei Bujuan leapt onto the pavilion to take a closer look.

Outside the temple.

A dark, gray streak of conveyance light was slowly approaching.

Behind the conveyance light.

Were numerous red light-emitting blood cocoons!

"It's Qiu Jinyu's remnant soul!"

"His physical body was lost after being besieged. He probably used a secret technique to allow his soul to leave his physical body and escape..."

In an instant.

Wei Bujuan had deduced the entire sequence of events.

He did not hesitate.

He waved his sleeve.

And a newly formed Spirit Qi Bottle flew out.

With a whoosh.

Qiu Jinyu's remnant soul was captured inside the Spirit Qi Bottle.

...

"They're here!"

The remnant soul looked terrified.

"It's Black Frost Demonic Sect! It's Black Frost Demonic Sect!"

Wei Bujuan's expression was grave.

The blood cocoons approached at rapid speed.

Waves and waves of demonic qi came.

In a short while.

A massive number of demonic sect members had surrounded Clear Wind Temple, without leaving so much as a gap!

However, they seemed to be holding back.

They were actually keeping a distance from the wall!

Wei Bujuan witnessed that and realized that there were also experts among those on the demonic path!

He heaved a sigh of relief.

Then said to the demonic sect members.

"That's right. If you've got something to say, just say it from where you're standing. Don't come over here!"

"Don't you dare take even one step forward!"

Gongyang Nian was a bit stunned.

A wave of hostility rose within him. "I insist on taking one more step forward! What are you going to do about that?" As soon as such a thought popped up, it was forcibly dispelled by his cautious nature!

"You can't!"

"There's something strange about this kid!"

"Thank goodness I held back and didn't fall for his trick!"

Gongyang Nian's feet did not move in the slightest.

He smiled frostily.

"Goading is something only little children would..."

But all of a sudden.

From the corner of his eye, he noticed that many of the disciples around him had taken a step forward, without having discussed it with each other beforehand!

"I insist on moving forward! So what?

Someone shouted as he stepped forward.

"Not only did I step forward, I even activated my magic equipment. What are you going to do about that?"

A disciple took out a giant sword wrapped around countless skulls.

"If you're self-aware enough..."

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Heavenly lighting resounded!

A sound that sent a chill down Gongyang Nian's spine suddenly exploded above his head!

The next moment.

Gongyang Nian saw that the young man across him also had a pained expression on his face.

"I told you guys not to move recklessly!"

That was before the sounds of thunder completely exploded.

And the last words Gongyang Nian heard.

The next moment.

The world was completely white.

The wind and clouds changed.

The entire Green Cliff Mountain began to shake violently!

...

[Provoked by a large number of people with heavy negative karma and demonic equipment, the heavenly tribulation has ended this cool-off period in advance...

...

The intensity of the heavenly tribulation is increasing...

...

Current Heavenly Tribulation: Void Amalgamation Lightning Tribulation (able to eliminate Soul Formation cultivators)]

...

As incandescent balls of light like small suns fell from the sky.

Wei Bujuan was almost blinded!

He hurriedly held the Spirit Qi Bottle close to his chest and hid under the pavilion.

With the protection of the Lightning Emperor Talisman.

He barely withstood the Void Amalgamation Lightning's attacks.

But it could still cause physical damage!

The impact of each blow left Wei Bujuan in so much pain that he wished he was dead.

"Wahhh!"

He was hammered until he vomited blood again and again.

As for what was happening outside...

He was in no position to care!

The violent Void Amalgamation Lightning cleaned out the ground for an entire night.

Only at noon the next day.

Did Wei Bujuan have strength to examine the aftermath.

Outside Clear Wind Temple.

There were charred corpses strewn all over the place.

More than 100 striking and startling kill records entered his vision.

...

[You have killed Vice Branch Leader Gongyang Nian of Black Frost Demonic Sect's Yongzhou Branch. His friends, relatives and disciples have developed hatred towards you. You may be hunted down by them...]

...

[You have killed Wei Feifei of Black Frost Demonic Sect. Her friends, relatives and disciples have developed hatred towards you. You may be hunted down by them...]

...

[You have killed Managing Elder Cheng Wuyou of Black Frost Demonic Sect. His friends, relatives and disciples have developed hatred towards you. You may be hunted down by them...]

...

...

Wei Bujuan was stunned!

Completely stunned!

The list of enemies had exceeded 1,000!

Even the Hatred List had run out of space!

Wei Bujuan clutched at his chest and took a look.

The person ranked 999th already had a hatred level of 80+!

He now truly had enemies all over the world.

...

...

One point added to his innate and acquired attributes each.

It was the best consolation for Wei Bujuan, who had put up with a entire night of harsh beatings.

Immediately after.

He noticed that his merit had an explosive increase and now exceeded 3,000 points!

Two more redeemable items had been added.

[Soaring Rainbow Sword] was an offensive magic treasure.

Wei Bujuan was not too interested.

But the other one was quite interesting.

...

[Silver Bodhi Seed (Wondrous Item)

...

Merit Points Required: 2000

...

Function -

It can greatly increase the proficiency level of one spell below Profound-level after consumption.]

Wei Bujuan exchanged one to try.

After taking it.
