Chapter 126: The Strength of the Dream Soul Gu, Strike First to Gain the Advantage
Of course, Zhou Sui's confidence in the Dream Soul Gu did not come from thin air.
Over these past few days, he had also sparred with Leng Yuexi several times, experiencing the strength of a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator.
He could truly feel the power of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
If it were a head-on battle, even he as he was now would be no match for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
It was possible that he would be killed in seconds upon the first encounter.
However, if it were a sneak attack from the shadows, it would be a completely different story.
With the help of the Dream Soul Gu's power, he could make a Foundation Establishment Cultivator fall into hallucinations silently and unknowingly.
That was exactly what happened to Leng Yuexi before.
Due to a moment of carelessness, she fell for the Dream Soul Gu's power and actually entered a dream for one second.
This also caused Leng Yuexi to break out in a cold sweat.
Because if this had been a life-or-death battle, she would have been killed long ago, unable to resist at all.
It was from this moment on that Zhou Sui also knew the strength of his Dream Soul Gu was powerful enough to challenge those of a higher realm.
"So that's how it is. Is it that soul secret technique of yours, husband?"
"If it is your soul secret technique, combined with my sneak attack, I'm afraid that group of Foundation Establishment Loose Cultivators definitely won't be able to resist."
Leng Yuexi's eyes lit up immediately.
She also recalled the sparring session with her husband earlier, even though she had been careless at that time.
But that was still a terrifying effect.
After all, her husband was only at the Qi Refining Ninth Layer right now; if he were to advance to the Foundation Establishment Realm, wouldn't he be able to sweep through cultivators of the same rank and be invincible?
As expected, her husband was a genius. Even though he was only a Qi Refining Cultivator, the power of his divine sense was comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator; such talent was truly inconceivable.
If she hadn't experienced it personally, she wouldn't have known that a cultivator with such talent existed in the world.
"Strike once to avoid a hundred blows."
"Since you all want to seek death, then you can't blame me."
A Cold Glow appeared in Zhou Sui's eyes.
He had originally just wanted to cultivate peacefully, but who could have expected that some people wouldn't let him be at peace.
Since that was the case, he could only strike first to gain the advantage and send the other party to Diyu.
…………
Late at night, outside the valley, at a temporary camp.
The leader was a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Loose Cultivator named Chu Fucai, a notorious Robber Cultivator who was extremely vicious and cruel; the number of cultivators who had died at his hands was simply countless.
Even a True Disciple of the Qingmu Sect had died miserably at his hands.
It was precisely because of this that he was wanted by the Qingmu Sect, and even Golden Core Cultivators wanted to hunt him down.
Thus, he was so frightened that he hid in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, and by relying on the harsh environment here, he managed to survive.
However, his vicious, cruel, and money-grubbing nature had not changed.
He often engaged in the business of killing people and seizing treasures in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
Beside him were three other Foundation Establishment Cultivators, one of whom was at the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage and two at the Foundation Establishment Early Stage; they were all brothers he had met and sworn brotherhood with in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
It could be said that these four Foundation Establishment Cultivators were all in the same boat.
They had only hidden in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range after being hunted by Golden Core sects, narrowly escaping with their lives.
These four Foundation Establishment Cultivators were known as the Cloud Mist Four Devils, making countless cultivators tremble with fear.
If it weren't for the harsh environment and the small number of cultivators here, they might have formed a massive Foundation Establishment force, stirring up trouble and doing whatever they pleased in this place.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, are we really going to make a move on that female Foundation Establishment Cultivator? That female cultivator is at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, and she is not to be trifled with." The speaker was an old man in a black robe with an ugly face, whose cultivation had reached the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage.
He felt that the mysterious female cultivator was not easy to provoke.
"Hehe, what is there to be afraid of? She is just a mere female Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator. She is at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, but am I not also at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage?"
Chu Fucai's eyes revealed a Cold Glow: "According to my observations over the past few days, there is only one female Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator in that valley, and the other four are only at the Qi Refining Eighth or Ninth Layer, which is not worth mentioning at all."
"The Array Formation set up inside the valley is also just a First-tier Array, which is impossible to stop us. If the four of us make a move, I believe it will be easy to capture them."
His body was permeated with deep killing intent, and he felt that dealing with a mere female Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator was not a problem at all.
He had killed cultivators of the same realm before.
Even a Personal Disciple of a sect was nothing more than that.
With a calculated strike against the unprepared, he was bound to win.
"I agree with Fellow Daoist Chu's plan. A female Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator is indeed powerful, but when it comes to fighting, how can she compare to Fellow Daoist Chu? If we add the three of us Foundation Establishment Cultivators to assist from the side, we can bully the few with the many."
"I believe a female Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator is not worth mentioning at all."
A sharp-mouthed, monkey-cheeked Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivator spoke up.
"That's right. That female Foundation Establishment Cultivator brought four Qi Refining Cultivators to the Cloud Mist Mountain Range without any companions by her side. Even if she faces our ambush, she won't be able to find any help."
"I have already asked the several Foundation Establishment families nearby; they don't know that female Foundation Establishment Cultivator at all. It was just a chance encounter, and they won't come to her rescue."
"Think about it carefully. If we kill this female Foundation Establishment Cultivator, then the Spirit Stones, Pills, secret manuals, and other Treasures on her will all belong to us."
"This is much more cost-effective than exploring some Cave Abode; we will definitely make a fortune."
Another Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivator also agreed to rob and kill the other party. He was now impatient to check the Storage Bag on her; he didn't know how much wealth a Foundation Establishment Cultivator would have.
But what was certain was that it would be enough for them to feast until they were full of oil.
"I know you are worried about whether that female Foundation Establishment Cultivator has a background."
"The problem is, even if she has a background, so what? The four of us are all wanted by Golden Core sects; we have long been wanted criminals."
"Even if we have a few more warrants on us, so what? Are they going to dispatch several Golden Core Cultivators to capture us?"
"As the saying goes, one doesn't fear more lice when one is already covered in them. We have reached this point, so what the hell are we afraid of?"
Chu Fucai let out a cold laugh.
"What you fellow Daoists say makes a lot of sense; I agree. I just don't know when we will strike."
The old man in the black robe was also tempted and made up his mind.
"No need to rush. Our movements these past few days have been a bit too large, and perhaps we have aroused the other party's vigilance."
"We will wait for a period of time, until things have calmed down, before we strike in secret."
"We will catch that female Foundation Establishment Cultivator off guard."
"By then, perhaps the other party will be finished off by us in her sleep, without us suffering any damage at all."
Chu Fucai smiled slightly.
"Very well, then everything is left to you, Fellow Daoist Chu."
The three Foundation Establishment Cultivators all nodded in satisfaction.
Rumble—
Just at this moment, suddenly, a formless Soul fluctuation struck instantly, and with lightning speed, it covered these four Foundation Establishment Cultivators all at once.
