Chapter 194
Meng Su didn't want to waste time on the slippery Yang Xiu, so he turned and left. With "Body Follows Thought," he appeared in the barbarian army again and launched another massacre.
Yang Xiu was enraged by Meng Su's rogue behavior. He roared loudly and then glowed all over again. When the light on his body reached its limit, Yang Xiu transferred the white light on his body to his right hand.
Yang Xiu's right hand was holding a ball of light.
Meng Su felt the energy fluctuation, looked back at Yang Xiu, knew what major supernatural ability Yang Xiu was about to unleash, and hurriedly escaped.
Yang Xiu threw the ball of light in his hand into the air. The ball of light rose into the air, exploded with a boom, and then formed a light umbrella. The light umbrella wrapped tens of thousands of demon cultivators below inside. This included Meng Su.
The light umbrella began to shrink, turning into a huge net. Yang Xiu pulled the light net and scooped Meng Su out of the crowd like scooping fish.
Meng Su charged left and right in the net, but he just couldn't get rid of the space power on the net.
Li Huan'er's Illusion Realm was created by phantom crystals, utilizing the power of heaven and earth. Yang Xiu's array was created by spirit stones, which was also the power of heaven and earth. This array power had a higher degree of compatibility with the Illusion Realm, so Yang Xiu was like a fish in water in this world.
Meng Su was carried by the array net toward Yang Xiu.
Yang Xiu looked at Meng Su in the net, a ferocious smile appearing on his mouth.
Seeing Yang Xiu's ugly wide face, Meng Su was annoyed. He tried his best to circulate his thought power, wanting to activate his thought body and unleash the shift supernatural ability to shift Yang Xiu into the array net. But the laws of this world were actually insufficient to support Meng Su's thought body, let alone the shift supernatural ability.
This was a pure world created by a mental field; this world actually had no matter at all, so it wasn't completely creation, as creation required the power of the Five Elements to constitute all things in the world. But Li Huan'er didn't have that. So this world was just a mental domain, and illusion power provided time and space. But Li Huan'er didn't have the laws of life and death, so life and death here were the same as life and death outside; if you died here, you died outside.
Meng Su suddenly thought of a question: since this world was so pure, would some demon arts that were relatively difficult to create in the Demon Realm become simple here?
For example: momentum. For example: field. Even a domain.
Meng Su began to gather thought power, first seeing if he could create a Demon Domain.
Meng Su failed; the creation of a Demon Domain required demonic power and a state of extremely high realm to create, neither of which Meng Su had.
Then try a field?
Unexpectedly, Meng Su created a thought field with ease.
Meng Su had pondered this thought field for a long time in the Demon Realm without ever successfully creating it, but here, he had created it with ease.
Meng Su stood in the array net and smiled.
Yang Xiu was enraged by Meng Su's noncommittal, strange smile, and he accelerated the speed of closing the net.
As long as the array net closed, it would produce a binding force like an Immortal Binding Rope, and Meng Su would be captured alive.
But Yang Xiu was disappointed.
Yang Xiu closed the net to the end, but the array net didn't catch Meng Su. It seemed there was a balloon beside Meng Su. This balloon squeezed the array net to the side. Meng Su stood in that ball, looking at Yang Xiu with a playful face.
Yang Xiu exerted his array power vigorously, wanting to flatten the thought field on Meng Su that looked like a balloon so he could capture Meng Su alive, but he failed after tossing and turning several times.
Just when Yang Xiu was at his wit's end, Meng Su in the array net moved.
Meng Su, carrying the array net, unleashed the "Body Follows Thought" supernatural ability, and he appeared right in front of Yang Xiu.
Yang Xiu was stunned; before he could react, his neck was grabbed by Meng Su.
The array net was not a barrier; since it was a net, it had meshes, and Meng Su's hand grabbed Yang Xiu through a mesh.
Yang Xiu had originally been a Demon Saint before obtaining the Array Scripture, and his realm was higher than Meng Su's, so Yang Xiu struggled vigorously, wanting to break free from Meng Su's grip.
Meng Su looked at the huge barrier in the air and flew toward the sky, carrying Yang Xiu.
Tens of thousands of barbarian soldiers below saw two figures in the air trailing long tails, crashing into the barrier in the air like comets. That was the array net emitting a dazzling light under high-speed dragging.
With a "boom," it was as if the barrier had been hit by a cannonball, and the entire barrier shook under this collision.
Yang Xiu was almost killed instantly by this collision. Fortunately, he had a protective array on his body, which activated at the critical moment. The two arrays collided, and the protective array on Yang Xiu's body shattered.
Meng Su glanced at the ground, unleashed "Body Follows Thought," and brought Yang Xiu to the ground. Then he continued to fly toward the sky.
Meng Su used Yang Xiu as a brick to knock on the door. He used Yang Xiu to smash the barrier above Yucheng.
Over and over again, Yang Xiu kept gathering protective arrays, but each time they were shattered by Meng Su's huge impact force.
The creation of protective array patterns required grinding spirit stones, boiling them into spirit, carving them on the body in advance, and Yang Xiu was not an expert in defensive array patterns, so this protective array was simply a tofu-dreg project, shattering at a single hit.
With successive collisions, the array power on Yang Xiu's body became less and less; it wouldn't take many more hits before Yang Xiu would be killed instantly.
Yang Xiu was afraid.
When Meng Su smashed Yang Xiu toward the barrier in the air again, Yang Xiu did one thing. He withdrew the barrier.
Meng Su brought Yang Xiu directly into the air. Yang Xiu put away the array net on Meng Su's body, converting the array power in the array net into a teleportation array, and a portion into demonic power.
The demonic power on Yang Xiu's body suddenly became powerful. Meng Su was caught off guard and was broken free by Yang Xiu.
Yang Xiu was afraid that Meng Su would continue to pester him, so a white light flashed on his body, and Yang Xiu unleashed teleportation, arriving on the ground.
Meng Su was broken free by Yang Xiu, and he was annoyed. His figure blurred, and he chased down.
Yang Xiu had long expected that Meng Su would not let him go; as soon as he landed, he propped up the barrier above Yuzhou City. With a boom, Meng Su crashed into the barrier.
"Body Follows Thought" was just a movement technique and could not perform space jumping, so as long as there was an obstruction in front, it was fine if it could be bypassed, but for something like a barrier that couldn't be bypassed at all, Meng Su had no way either. Meng Su was blocked outside Yuzhou City.
This collision left Meng Su dazed and confused; fortunately, he had a thought field on his body. Otherwise, he would have knocked himself unconscious.
Seeing that Meng Su had also been knocked, Yang Xiu was in a great mood, hooked his fingers at Meng Su with a triumphant face, meaning: if you have the guts, come over.
Seeing Yang Xiu's provocation, Meng Su was furious. He moved rapidly around the barrier, wanting to find a gap or flaw. Although Yang Xiu had only practiced half of the Array Scripture, he had no problem with entry-level techniques like setting up a barrier, and he certainly wouldn't leave a flaw on the barrier for the enemy to find.
Meng Su searched a circle, didn't find any flaws, and could only leave while cursing.
Tens of thousands of Tang troops had already surrounded Yuzhou City, and Li Huan'er was anxiously circling around; it was almost dawn, and Meng Su had followed him in but hadn't come out yet. Li Huan'er was very worried in her heart. That array cultivator looked very powerful and was not to be trifled with.
Meng Su, who was retreating, met Li Huan'er's imperial guards head-on. As soon as Li Huan'er saw Meng Su, she didn't care about the gazes of other generals and soldiers, hugged Meng Su, and choked up, "Husband, you finally returned; your wife was really worried."
This wave of huge dog food made everyone feel embarrassed, so they turned their heads away, pretending not to see.
Meng Su patted Li Huan'er's back to comfort her, "It's okay, I went to catch rats; there are too many rats in the imperial city. I'll have to raise a few cats another day."
