Tainted will

All of you can die..

These words resounded in their minds, even though they understood the meaning of these words, they looked Perplexed.

"What are you talking about?" The beauty spoke, while slightly tilting her head sideways.

"Do you have balls for brains? don't fu.." but before ye kai could finish his words, a change occurred.

With a flash of azure light, the group of cultivators were instantly enveloped within a pentagonal prism barrier, which appeared out of thin air, restricting them.

At this time, the group of cultivators had a great change in their expressions.

Ji yang looked at the barrier cautiously and quickly surrounded his body with spiritual essence. But upon seeing Bai Ming's wicked grin, realization dawned upon him, now he clearly understood Bai Ming's vile intentions. ji Yang's usually kind expression turned ice cold, his eyes blazing with boundless fury.

It was not just him, the others also quickly understood their situation, they were not stupid. The reason they never doubted Bai Ming, was because of the clans systems, and there was really no reason to doubt him. Morality was ingrained in every cell of their body, the instances of traitors like Bai Ming appearing in the clan were one in a million.

Bai Ming stood like a bystander, watching with a cold smirk on his face.

"Bai Ming, we can talk about this. Don't do something that you might regret later! if you stop now, I promise that we won't pursue this matter!" Ji yang shouted loudly. But his thoughts were, 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮!? 𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘦 𝘢 𝘴𝘱𝘺 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘷𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘦??

Bai Ming was still smiling coldly, as he made a hand sign.

Immediately, the snow inside the barrier began to transforming into ice, which further began transforming into ice monsters. In just few breaths of time more than thirty ice monsters were formed, each ice monster was about 7 feet tall, their eyes were hollow, on its icy body were many icicles pointing outwards. They looked at the group of cultivators with hostility, their hollow eye sockets suddenly glowed with a bloody light.

"Bai Ming, listen to me don't be foolish. We can still talk it through, but if you want do this the hard way, it won't be in your favour, You underestimate the strength of my group too much and there are also many team's nearby, from the commotion of the fight it's just a matter of time, before other's find us. At that time even I won't be able to save you, this is your only opportunity, quickly dispel the formation!" Ji yang yelled, showing his good will, but at the same time it was threat.

"Yes! Bai Ming let's talk this over" the other experts also tried to convince Bai Ming.

But no matter what they said, nothing seemed to effect Bai Ming, seeing this they could only grit their teeth and fight against the horde of ice monsters.

It was not that Bai Ming was ignoring their words, but that he had set up such a barrier that isolated the sound within the barrier from the outside world.

From the beginning of their battle against the wolf king, Bai Ming was busy setting up this formation. During the fierce battle no one was paying attention to him, he was able to set up this 2nd grade formation quite easily. His grandmaster attainment was nothing to scoff at.

He already had the desire to kill them the moment he heard from elder xu about the beast tide, beast tide was an ideal time for Bai Ming to collect refinement materials. And now that his strength had improved greatly his obsession for strength was growing even more intensely. Every time his strength increased, his greed for strength also increased. It was an never ending hunger.

Formations have many uses, some can be used to attack, defend, restrain or even put someone under illusions or transfer arrays or maybe speed up time etc. Of course formations weren't omnipotent, they also had many limitations.

"If it was before the fight against the wolf king, I would have had my doubts whether this 2nd grade formation was enough to kill them, but now that everyone here is running dry on spiritual energy, my victory is guaranteed."

"This formation can take a wolf kings full power attack eleven or twelve times before collapsing. And now that ji wushang has already run dry on spiritual energy, there is only that Ji yang who can use the 4th layer of the primeval sword art, but it doesn't matter. First of all, after battling for so long his spiritual energy storage is low and secondly the 4th move requires much preparation, if he is foolish enough to even try that move he will be the first to get killed." Bai Ming thought as he watched the ongoing battle.

Inside the formation, the group of ice monsters formed a circle as they surrounded these pitiful cultivators. Three of the ice monsters had already been destroyed, but their death wasn't in vain as they took one of the heavily injured cultivators life. Each of the ice monsters had strength equivalent to a high grade tier 2 beasts.

"There are still 27 more monsters, if we were at our peaks this would only be slightly troublesome but now we are all running low on spiritual energy and also suffered minor injuries. Surviving this group of ice monsters is very difficult, but it isn't hopeless, but after surviving this we also have to face that bastard, by that time we will be truly helpless without spiritual energy. Sigh, we can only count on our clansman saving us." ji yang assessed his situation, his heart feeling very low.

Bai Ming's gaze shone as he watched the battlefield, "There isn't much time" Saying that he made another hand sign.

The three ice monsters which were killed before began to return to life again, but there was a difference, the three ice monsters combined into one forming a tri-headed ice ape, the ice ape was more than thrice the size of the normal ice monsters, it had four arms and three long tails.

Ji yang and gang previously had held onto a tiny hope of survival, but now it was crushed like an insignificant ant.

The ice ape began to crazily fight against the band of cultivators, even though it had a huge size it was extremely quick on its feet, it's strength was almost comparable to the wolf king.

With the appearance of the ice ape, the entire flow of the battle changed. The cultivators were quickly getting killed one by one. Most of them died from having their body ripped apart alive.

until only a single person remained, It was none other than Ji yang. He watched all of his comrades dying painfully one by one, the hatred in his eyes turned into helplessness, it was one that of utter despair.

Eventually, he ran out of strength as an ice monster grabbed his head and squashed it like a watermelon, brain matter, blood, his skull, and teeth were all mixed together in a pile. Bloody, the scene was inside the battle field was completely bloody.

Bai Ming watched the entire scene indifferently, he didn't feel even an ounce of pity or regret towards killing his comrades, After Ji yang had been killed Bai Ming stepped inside the formation. He made the monsters inside collect the loot for him, he stored all the corpses including the wolf king. After that he quickly destroyed the formation, and left towards the cave.

He was going to breakthrough the 2nd layer of rotten blood arts, the materials on hand were more than enough to achieve it.

"Should I thank them because they sacrificed their lives to help me get stronger. Hmm, no need. We are comrades after all, it's their duty." Bai Ming chuckled as he thought of this.

....

Somewhere in Xuan mountain.

On a battlefield, there were four people.

"please spare me!!" Bei ju was on his knees pathetically begging, he looked dishevelled at the moment, his right palm was attached to the ground using a cold spear.

On his surroundings there nearly four corpses laying on the ground, all of them had a gapping hole on their chests, it was clear that all of them were killed by the same weapon.

A handsome youth around 16-17 wearing a white robe stood in front of him, he had short brown hair, with sharp eyebrows. He stood straight like an unbending spear, he was staring down at Bei ju with his golden pupils.

He spoke with much disappointment, "Sigh, and here I was hoping on having some fun, but you just had to ruin it by acting so cowardly."

"Please spare me! i don't want to die, spare me! I beg of you, please!" Bei ju's mucus and tears were mixed together, flowing down his face. Along with his tattered clothes, covered in snow and blood made him look very pitiful.

"If you were even a little bit like your comrades, brave and courageous I, Luo sheng would have killed you, but you don't deserve this opportunity... sigh, such a disappointment." Luo sheng's expression was that of disappointment.

"Yes, yes, I am undeserving, truly undeserving. Thank you Lord for sparing my life, Thank you!!" Being ju hurriedly expressed his gratitude, a dim fire lit in his heart, this fire was hope.

But..

Luo sheng looked at Bei ju as if he was looking at fool, he spoke with disdain "You are truly a stupidddddd ye clansman. Little shi, kill him."

Woosh!

​ At the next second a spear ruthlessly pierced Bei ju's brain, killing him on the spot.

"Yes, young master" Litte shi acknowledged, But this little shi was 7 feet tall giant with bulging muscles.

Luo sheng didn't even glace at Bei ju's corpse, as he mumbled to himself "I hope, there will be something fun, something interesting,Pfft"

"Hey, come on, let's go kill some more people." Luo sheng ordered as he dashed into the forest.

The two guards looked at each other before sighing together, before following after their young master.
