Becoming a Saint by Touching Corpses - Chapter 749 - 645: Counterattack (Welcoming the God of Wealth)
They never imagined that Lou Yi, who was seen by them as a tough-bodied, muscular Body Cultivator.
Had already reached the Perfection Level in the initial solution of the Array.
Two Forms Sect’s True Inheritance Gao Wenxian thought his Yin-Yang Harmony Array was flawless, but he was unaware of its numerous flaws in Lou Yi’s eyes.
Extremely cleverly adjusted a bit.
Shifting all the pressure from Jin Tingfeng and Xin Ziqi onto other cultivators regarded as cannon fodder.
At the same time, Lou Yi also eased the burden on companions like Shen Aoqun and Lu Ziyun by transferring some of the pressure away, making them feel much lighter.
Anyway, these cultivators from the Central Continent’s heartlands didn’t regard Northern Domain cultivators as people, having no guilt in causing them trouble.
Those major sect cultivators backstabbed by Gao Wenxian felt the pressure intensify again, vomiting blood while cursing loudly.
“Ah! Ah!! Damn Gao Wenxian, I curse you!”
“Gao Wenxian, if I can survive this calamity, I swear I’ll exterminate your nine clans!”
“Gao Wenxian, Wang Xiaolou, today you’d better kill us all.
If even one escapes, you’ll have to stay honestly within your sect for the rest of your lives!”
“Just the howl of defeated dogs.” Though being stared at hatefully by so many people, Gao Wenxian still wore a calm expression full of wisdom.
He looked at the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures at the bottom of the different space, a fervor showing in his eyes.
“So many Blood Jade Lotuses, if we distribute them among us, our potential will greatly increase, and our cultivation speed will accelerate significantly!”
In everyone’s eyes, Blood Jade Lotuses grew amidst a hazy dark mist, exposing only parts indicating there were at least dozens of bunches.
Upon hearing Gao Wenxian’s words, the Beast Controlling Sect’s bearded Wang Xiaolou, Danxia Sect’s Yuan Feng, and Flame Sect’s unknown red-robed cultivator each broke into a broad smile.
When the distance to the Blood Jade Lotuses was only a hundred zhang, the Array Map stopped moving, no longer advancing.
The pressure within the different space had reached an all-pervading level.
Some parts could even penetrate the Array Map, directly conveying onto everyone.
Gao Wenxian took out a jade-green pole from his chest, transparent like jade.
Suspended on it was a faint golden long line, continuously extending and stretching downward, resembling a fishing line.
The line lowered to a Blood Jade Lotus with about seven or eight sections.
Whirling around its top, it pulled it out with a ’pop’ sound, quickly bringing it beside him.
This Blood Jade Lotus, arm-thick, had eight sections, each about a ruler length, red throughout, seemingly with blood quietly flowing inside.
A faint fragrance emitted from it, causing those nearby to involuntarily gulp.
Gao Wenxian spread his left hand.
A black bowl shimmering with dim light appeared, with a teapot lid covering it.
Opening the lid, a considerable suction force surged from inside the bowl, pulling the Blood Jade Lotus in.
With a ’snap’, Gao Wenxian closed the lid again.
He smiled to the few beside him: “Such genuine Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures as Blood Jade Lotus are highly active.
They cannot be placed in regular storage bags, only stored in such specially-made magical artifacts.”
Beast Controlling Sect’s bearded Wang Xiaolou nodded after hearing this: “Indeed, living beings and living people cannot be placed in storage bags, such highly active plants are likely the same.”
Following this, Gao Wenxian continued to reel in, as before.
He consecutively fished more than ten bunches of Blood Jade Lotus, each bunch ranging from five to six sections to over ten sections.
Still, the corrosiveness of the hazy space where the Blood Jade Lotus resided was severe.
Soon, the golden line on the jade pole snapped with a ’pop’ sound.
Witnessing this, Gao Wenxian’s expression turned somewhat unsightly.
“This treasure line was something I managed to acquire with difficulty from within the Heavenly Craft Sect; it’s more valuable than the pole, and I only have one.”
“No worries, most of the Blood Jade Lotus has been collected, leave some for posterity,” said Wang Xiaolou indifferently.
But his gaze remained fixedly on the black bowl in Gao Wenxian’s hand.
Seeing the gaze of his companions, Gao Wenxian’s lips curled into a slight smile: “Don’t rush, once we’re out of the different space, I’ll share the treasure with you all.”
“What about these folks?” asked Yuan Feng from Danxia Sect.
“Oh, to thank them for helping us acquire the treasure, we’ll select a nice cemetery for them,” Gao Wenxian chuckled.
“Gao Wenxian, I @&/ you…”
“You want to kill me? It won’t be easy, even if I die, I’ll take one down with me!”
“I really was blind to have known a beast like you!”
After hearing Gao Wenxian’s words, others on the Array Map ’exploded’, trembling with anger, eyes red, wishing to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
Unfortunately, Gao Wenxian’s control over the Array Map exceeded their imagination, they couldn’t break free no matter how they struggled.
Instead, they felt the pressure growing heavier, the rate of Spiritual Essence depletion was astonishing.
They could only watch helplessly as they were weakened gradually, left at others’ mercy.
“Killing a few female cultivators like this would indeed be a waste.
Why not subdue them, let the brothers taste the flavor of Foundation Establishment peak fairies?” Wearing a plain white daoist robe, Yuan Feng, with a gentle demeanor and faint herbal fragrance, like a friendly teacher.
Yet his words made one feel an especially cold shiver down the spine.
Upon his suggestions, the gaze of several others brightened.
“Indeed, the female cultivator from Qingluan Palace is a true beauty, even in our place, there aren’t many with such charm.”
High Wenxian too, wearing a black and white daoist robe, laughed, revealing a smirk of lascivious expression.
“If it’s just ordinary mortal women, forget it, but the female cultivator from Qingluan Palace, surnamed Xin, is indeed enticing, even making me tempted.”
Beast Controlling Sect’s bearded Wang Xiaolou’s eyes were transfixed on Xin Ziqi, openly exuding a fiery gaze.
Xin Ziqi at that moment, wearing a long blue dress, with a slender figure, jade-like skin, perfectly shaped face, exquisitely carved features…
Indeed resembled a fairy descended to earth.
Aside from her, there were two other female cultivators present.
Xin Ziqi’s senior sister Lu Ziyun, and a cute female cultivator from Luo Ying Sect.
They were considered attractive, but compared to Xin Ziqi, were as plain as country village girls.
“Haha, you’re all eyeing this little lass, why not leave the other two to me, let me try both together…”
The red-robed cultivator from the Blazing Flame Sect winked and said.
Hearing his words, several people laughed wildly, oblivious to their surroundings.
“Alright, we’re almost out of the range of the other dimension. Let’s clear away these annoying fellows first,” Gao Wenxuan said indifferently.
His Yin-Yang Harmony Array needed to use the pressure from the other dimension to suppress those who were once his companions.
If they left the other dimension, it would be much harder to handle these people.
Thinking this, Gao Wenxuan began to manipulate the array.
He focused most of the pressure from the other dimension into one mass and pressed it onto the horse-faced cultivator of the Wealth Sect.
“Ah!”
A miserable scream was heard as the horse-faced cultivator’s body exploded with a bang, turning into countless rain of blood.
“If only you had remained consistent, you wouldn’t die today. What a pity,” Gao Wenxuan said indifferently.
Then, he continued his cruel actions.
The other cultivators on the array map exploded like fireworks, one after another.
In the end, half of the central continent cultivators had already died.
Gao Wenxuan finally turned his gaze to Shen Aoqun, with a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth: “My bumpkin brother, it’s your turn.”
Shen Aoqun suddenly spoke: “You initially befriended me just to use me, didn’t you?”
“Hmm?” Upon hearing this question, Gao Wenxuan was visibly stunned for a moment and then said, “Not really, just a habitual bet.”
If not for the sudden appearance of this other dimension, you and I might have been so-called ’brothers’ for quite a long time, hehe.”
“As expected of a major sect disciple, the mindset is indeed different,” Shen Aoqun sighed, showing his admiration.
“Alright, now that you know the truth, you should die without regret,” Gao Wenxuan snapped his fingers, intending to activate the array to kill the other.
Unexpectedly, an invisible wave flashed within the array map, causing Gao Wenxuan and several others’ expressions to drastically change.
“Ah… Gao… Wenxuan, what… are you… doing?” The red-robed cultivator from the Blazing Flame Sect roared angrily.
His whole body trembled, a large amount of blood sprayed out from his pores, turning him into a complete blood man in no time.
“Trying to kill us and take… all the benefits?” Wan Xiaolou, the cultivator from the Beast Taming Sect, had a radiant black spiritual shield appearing within him.
Helping him resist most of the pressure, he angrily looked at Gao Wenxuan.
Not surprising him to think so.
Firstly, there was a precedent.
Secondly, the owner of the array map was Gao Wenxuan; only he could manipulate the array map against others.
“I… am… not…” Gao Wenxuan just wanted to speak.
When he felt an overwhelming pressure land on his body surface, making it impossible for him to speak coherently.
“Together, let’s kill him first!” Yuan Feng from the Danyan Sect showed a ferocious expression.
A bronze cauldron a few feet high flew out from his sleeve.
Its surface had nine flying dragons constantly climbing, emitting a dazzling spiritual light, even surpassing the level of a top-grade spiritual artifact.
’Bang!’
The bronze cauldron pierced through the other dimension, fiercely smashing toward Gao Wenxuan!
Gao Wenxuan regained 50% control of the array map at that moment, a black magic sword appeared around him, knocking the bronze cauldron away.
At the same time, he also became aware of Lou Yi’s presence, it was Lou Yi who was competing with him for control of the array map.
“So it was you?” Gao Wenxuan suddenly looked at Lou Yi, heart filled with rage and shock.
Unable to comprehend how the other had managed to seize most of the array map’s authority while he was unguarded.
“To survive, we must take him down!” Shen Aoqun shouted angrily, his ’blood-soaked’ appearance making him seem severely injured.
“Kill him quickly!” Jin Tingfeng, looking equally miserable, shouted loudly, though his voice was full of energy, no one noticed this peculiar phenomenon.
“Let’s act together and slaughter this ungrateful guy!” Wan Xiaolou, too, shouted angrily.
He summoned a black eagle spirit beast, over twenty feet long, with eyes sharp as knives, spreading its wings to cover the sky.
The black eagle spirit beast flew rapidly towards Gao Wenxuan, aiming to kill him.
“Stop! I was framed, the one who attacked just now wasn’t me!” Gao Wenxuan was anxious, quickly trying to exonerate himself.
He didn’t want to take the blame for Lou Yi.
But this blame was one he truly couldn’t shake off.
Because no one believed that anyone else could control his Yin-Yang Harmony Array.
Gao Wenxuan’s words instead further infuriated everyone present.
“Still daring to argue at this time, truly shameless!”
“Kill, quickly kill him!”
“Slay Gao Wenxuan, escape the other dimension!”
Everyone unanimously targeted Gao Wenxuan, leaving him with no way to defend himself.
Not wanting to be killed, he could only be forced to fight back.
Instead, solidifying his previous nefarious intentions.
Even Lou Yi was surprised, not expecting the strange turn of events.
He had caught Gao Wenxuan off guard, but Gao Wenxuan quickly regained more than half control of the array.
After all, Gao Wenxuan had refined the array map for so long, even if Lou Yi’s array skills reached perfection level, it wasn’t easy to seize control.
Lou Yi initially wanted to engage in a good battle with Gao Wenxuan, but didn’t expect Gao Wenxuan to already be the target of everyone’s wrath.
Even if he seized 100% control of the array map now,
he feared he’d still be unable to withstand everyone’s attack.
At that moment, Gao Wenxuan faced numerous attacks, flying swords, magic, talismans… the defensive spiritual artifact on him was instantly shattered.
“Damn it…”
He couldn’t help but curse, wanting to scream at the sky and vent his feelings of anger.
