23 Chapter 23 Defeating The Three Evils of Mi Yun, Overwhelming Combat Strength_1
Translator: 549690339
It was late at night, and the sky was densely covered with dark clouds.
In Misty Cloud City, on the streets near Zhou Sui’s house, three black-robed cultivators appeared at this moment. They all were Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivators, with dreadful murderous intent and lethal aura emanating from them.
Apparently, they were notorious robbers known for their rampaging killings, nicknamed the ‘Misty Cloud Trio’.
The number of loose cultivators killed by them was countless.
Through their various ways of murder and robbery, it was unknown how many spirit stones they had obtained. It was precisely because of these abundant spirit stones that their cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer.
Originally, the Misty Cloud Trio operated outside and hardly dared to cause trouble within the city.
But once a large number of cultivators in Misty Cloud City went out, following the Immortal Mist Sect into the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, and the law enforcement team could not maintain the city’s public order, they began to get restless.
Undoubtedly, if they were to rob and kill loose cultivators in the city at this time, they could certainly make a fortune.
In the previous few nights, they had quietly sneaked into other cultivators’ houses to rob them, gaining a lot of booty.
This made them greedy for more and want to do it again.
“Big Brother, it seems that the cultivators on this street have gathered near a house as if they knew about our arrival.”
“Oh, what’s so special about that house that they are gathering there?”
“It’s said that the house is inhabited by three female cultivators in the late Qi Cultivation Stage. One of them is at the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation so they want to rely on the reputation of these three female cultivators to deter us.”
“Hehe, ridiculous! They must be bluffing. Renowned cultivators of the Qi Cultivation nineth Layer all reside in the inner city. How could they stay in an outer city house? Isn’t this absurd?”
“Indeed, I also think so. It must be the cultivators here trying to scare us by deliberately spreading such ridiculous rumors, but how could we be so easily fooled?”
“We can’t really say that. It’s better to believe that it exists than to dismiss it as impossible. We must still tread carefully. If there really are three cultivators in the late Qi Cultivation Stage living here, then we would really be in hot water.”
“You’re absolutely right. We should probe first, and if indeed there are three cultivators of the late Qi cultivation stage living in that house, then we should abandon this street and go on to rob elsewhere.”
“Agreed, we only seek fortunes and there’s no need for us to fight to the death with cultivators of the same realm. It’s not worth the loss.”
The three black-robed cultivators chattered incessantly.
The reason they had survived so long as robbers was their carefulness and their bullying of the weak and fearing the strong.
They never fought to the death against big fish.
That was why they could survive for such a long time without ever being in trouble.
“What a waste. Had you run away just now, you could have saved your lives.”
Just at that moment, a voice echoed faintly in the darkness.
What?!
The Misty Cloud Trio instantly broke into a cold sweat and shivered all over, as they hadn’t sensed anyone around them just now. From where did this voice come?
They fixed their gaze and immediately saw a figure appearing in the distance. It seemed to be a 17 or 18-year-old young man, with an ordinary appearance that if placed on the street would go unnoticed.
Before they could get a clear look at their enemy’s face, suddenly an overwhelming Illusion Technique was silently cast.
Boom boom boom~~~
The Misty Cloud Trio were only at the late Qi Cultivation Stage, they had never encountered such an Illusion Technique attack, nor did they possess a magic artifact that could resist illusion techniques.
In just an instant, they found themselves trapped in an illusion, standing dumbly in place, unable to move. In a life-or-death battle, this was nothing short of a fatal flaw.
Thud thud thud!!!
In the next moment, several Sword Qi attacks tore through the air and instantly pierced their heads; blood was spilt everywhere.
“This–”
The Misty Cloud Trio’s eyes widened in shock. They only caught a glimpse of darkness before losing consciousness.
With just a single blow, they had lost their lives and fell hard to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust. Blood had spilled all over the place.
The person who made the move was none other than Zhou Sui.
However, this wasn’t Zhou Sui’s real body, but a clone condensed out of his Clone Gu.
Originally, this clone was just used to monitor the surroundings for alert purposes, but now, during this trial run, it had instantly killed three Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer robbers with a single blow.
This left Zhou Sui very surprised.
“Is this the power of the Dream Soul Gu? It’s indeed strong.”
Zhou Sui was also amazed. Undoubtedly, after he advanced to the Qi Cultivation fourth Layer, both the True Yuan in his body and his Soul Power had greatly improved.
Especially the Soul Power, which had the greatest advancement.
Combined with the power of the Dream Soul Gu, it was not as simple as one plus one. Even when facing a Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivator, he could instantly kill them. This was the power of Soul Power.
Obviously, for Qi Cultivation Stage cultivators, Soul Power was too advanced, very few had come into contact with it.
So, they didn’t have any defenses.
Under such unprepared circumstances, they were instantly killed by Zhou Sui.
To resist the power of the soul, one would at least have to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm, for cultivators of this realm possess Spiritual Sense and thereby can somewhat resist the power of the soul.
Alternatively, possessing a magic artifact that can defend against soul attacks would also suffice.
The problem was, this kind of artifact was extremely rare and valuable, beyond the reach of ordinary loose cultivators.
“As I’m now, with the power of the Dream Soul Gu, I can contend against Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivators. Even Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer cultivators could be a match, of course not in a head-on battle. But if it’s a surprise attack, I can kill one with every strike.”
Zhou Sui suddenly felt very satisfied.
His choice to select the Dream Soul Gu as his main battle Gu was very correct, because in his previous life he was just an indoor man with weak physical strength, hardly proficient in any close combat.
Besides, close combat carried the risk of being killed by the enemy if he was even slightly careless. The risk was too high.
It would be better to become a mage with ranged attacks.
This way, he could remotely kill opponents while his body remained untouched. This was the most suitable fighting method for him.
Putting oneself in danger was just foolish behavior.
Therefore, the Dream Soul Gu was his selected Gu for ranged attacks, and its power was indeed extraordinary.
His cultivation was only at the Qi Cultivation fourth Layer, yet he could easily kill a Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivator. He was challenging cultivators above his level.
This could certify the strength of the Gu Divine Bowl, far from comparable to these loose cultivators.
“Let’s go.”
With this thought, clone Zhou Sui immediately took all the storage bags from the Misty Cloud Trio. He didn’t have time to check what was inside the storage bags and immediately left.
Because he heard footsteps coming from afar, it seemed that someone heard the noise here and was coming to check, so he had no interest in staying any longer.
With a whoosh, the clone instantly left the place, returning home as if nothing had happened.
