Chapter 249: Chapter 48: Sudden Storml i
The surrounding landscape swiftly passed by as they proceeded.
Wang Ba made sure to conduct a sweeping spiritual sense to ensure there were no incense-burning Dao cultivators nearby, while paying no emotional tribute to the once flourishing terrain that had been ruined by cultivators.
High mountains, fertile farms, and houses were now nothing more than broken walls and ruins.
There were ditches and pits everywhere.
The residues of the aura leftover from the cultivators’ battles lingered.
To cultivators, perhaps these were nothing noteworthy.
Wang Ba felt inexplicably heavy-hearted.
He was no saint, but seeing the scene before him, he felt a wave of unexplained sorrow.
However, he had no time to sigh.
Quickly, his face turned grave:
“Hide yourselves!”
His spiritual sense had detected three class I incense-burning Dao cultivators dressed in bright red garb fast approaching from a nearby distance.
Hearing Wang Ba’s warning, the cultivators behind immediately dispersed, each using their methods to hide in their surroundings.
They attempted to avoid being noticed by the incense-burning Dao cultivators.
However, Wang Ba’s face changed slightly:
“We’ve been discovered!”
One of the incense-burning Dao cultivators seemed to have noticed something amiss, abruptly accelerating to escape in the distance!
Wang Ba’s face darkened, ready to make his move, but he saw a figure suddenly fly out. At the same time, a flying sword flashed past, decapitating the incense-burning Dao cultivator attempting to flee!
A quick scan revealed that the person that had taken action was none other than You Wanli, a Qi Refining competitor at Stage X.
Before he could express surprise, the other two incense-burning Dao cultivators, shocked by the sudden onslaught, immediately soared off in different directions at high speed!
After his attack, You Wanli didn’t stop, but transformed into a streak of light, shooting towards one of them.
Seeing this, Wang Ba chose to follow the other incense-burning Dao cultivator.
After all, he was a Foundation Establishment competitor. In the blink of an eye, he was already in front of the incense-burning Dao cultivator.
Feeling Wang Ba’s Foundation Establishment aura, a terrifying look appeared on the incense-burning Dao cultivator’s face.
Wang Ba’s eyes flashed with a deep red light, making a subtle move in his heart.
He tried to plant a thought in the other’s mind.
However, to Wang Ba’s surprise, the cultivator’s face changed, revealing disbelief:
“Yin, Yin Power?”
“How, you, you are…”
Then Wang Ba’s face darkened, killing intent brewing in his eyes!
Raising his hand to concentrate his mana, he gave a direct squeeze!
Then, with a movement of his spiritual mind, his hand directly slapped onto the cultivator’s forehead.
Soon, Wang Ba retracted his hand with a serious expression, withdrawing the soul searching technique.
The incense-burning Dao cultivator, under Wang Ba’s thought, was instantly lifeless.
“Incense-burning Dao cultivators, nearly ten thousand people have gathered outside their residence!”
“All of them are from the Yin lineage!”
“What on earth are they trying to do?”
“Could it be that the Tianmen Cult’s hierarch is a blind eye? Are the five major sects of the Chen State preparing to sit back and watch the fight?” ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Wang Ba’s heart was filled with surging thoughts.
However, he quickly suppressed them.
Soon, his gaze shifted to a short distance away. He spotted that You Wanli had already ended his fight and the corpses of the two incense-burning Dao cultivators had been collected by several cultivators.
They were trying to avoid being discovered.
But Wang Ba noticed a strange taste in the eyes of the cultivators who came with him when they looked at him.
At first, Wang Ba was perplexed. But seeing the unyielding expression in You Wanli’s eyes, he started to understand.
From the outbreak of the fight just now, You Wanli alone had decapitated two incense-burning Dao cultivators whereas, Wang Ba, the only Foundation Establishment competitor in their group, had only brought down one.
Such a comparison led those cultivators, who initially had unsteady standings, to form different associations.
Some even felt that Wang Ba, a Foundation Establishment competitor, may not even be as good as they were.
Meanwhile, You Wanli’s occasional glances contained a hint of provocation.
But he still had some fear and didn’t dare to make any moves.
After all, the mana of Foundation Establishment competitors is much richer than that of Qi Refining competitors. The same class I spell, when used by a Foundation Establishment competitor, can often unleash power several times stronger than when used by a Qi Refining competitor.

Even though he was confident in his own strength among those at the Qi Refining Stage X, he did not dare to provoke a Foundation Establishment competitor.
Seeing this, Wang Ba didn’t say much. An additional cultivator would merely be an additional target in the face of the enemy, reducing his burden a little.
Moreover, after conducting a soul search on a prior incense-burning Dao cultivator, he gained more confidence to accomplish the task.
The other party had revealed to him the defense formation situation nearby. With this, unless they were extremely unlucky, they could break through and easily reach the vicinity of Luolan Mountain.
With so many cultivators setting up formations together, there should be enough time.
With these thoughts, he immediately urged the cultivators to depart.
But in response to Wang Ba’s prompt, except for Hua Meng who readily complied, everyone’s gazes turned unanimously towards You Wanli.
Wang Ba holing his gaze slightly, turned to look at him too.
He could probably estimate some of You Wanli’s thoughts, but he couldn’t help but find it a bit amusing.
Did You Wanli actually believe that he could be on par with a Foundation Establishment competitor?
Even he, Wang Ba, was confident that he could easily kill him with one hand.
He just couldn’t understand where You Wanli’s confidence was coming from.
However, You Wanli was unaware of Wang Ba’s musings. Seeing everyone looking at him, there was a spark of arrogance and pride in his eyes.
However, he showed a bit of hesitation and finally opened his mouth, saying, “Let’s follow Master Wang’s instruction.”
He referred to Wang Ba as Master Wang, not Elder Wang.
Although Wang Ba didn’t really care about these appellations, the way he addressed him had exposed his inner thoughts.
