Starting Cultivation in Wasteland

Chapter 1100: Chapter 966: It’s a Trap

The Paranoid and Claire were shouting loudly in the room, while the withered man silently summoned over a thousand Yin Souls.

Adding these thousand Yin Souls made the defense array dangerously unstable, with its deterioration visible to the naked eye.

"To hell with it... let’s go all out!" Old Yun roared, "Fire Rain!"

Suddenly, on the snowy mountain, patches of small flames appeared, falling towards the ground.

To effectively harm Yin Souls, the first choice is the Light Attribute, followed by Electromagnetic Attribute, and then Fire Attribute.

"A-level Fire Attribute," the withered man sneered disdainfully, sensing the opponent was only A-level, just as he expected.

He didn’t think much of A-level, especially here in the cold snowy mountains, where he had the geographical advantage.

However, this Fire Rain appeared at night, and if detected by satellites above, it would attract attention.

Luckily, he had already activated the Rainfall Technique before nightfall, gathering large patches of dark clouds above.

The rain hadn’t fallen; he accurately controlled the timing because once it fell, it would be snow instead of rain.

Yin Souls are generally unaffected by physical objects, but the resonance effect of water could stir up some snowflakes, revealing their positions.

Anyway, with the dark clouds hiding them from satellites, it was enough.

But he was also a bit anxious, "This guy’s attribute convergence... is quite poor, yet, I can’t keep wasting Yin Souls."

The reason he summoned over a thousand Yin Souls was that he was reluctant to continue consuming them, deciding to increase the attack intensity instead.

Seeing the Fire Rain causing damage to the Yin Souls again left him a bit frustrated.

"Accelerate the assault!" he secretly commanded the Yin Souls, "Finish the battle quickly!"

The attack power of the Yin Souls increased once more.

Unfortunately, the opponent chose a rather small room, shrinking the scope of the defense array even further.

Facing such a small space, the thousand Yin Souls couldn’t fully unleash their powers.

Although the Yin Souls’ attacks could disregard the house, simply entering it was useless; they had to break through the defense first.

While the A-level Fire Attribute on the opposite side seemed a bit flustered, they still persisted in outputting energy.

Apart from the Fire Rain, there were also Flaming Arrows, which directly eliminated the stronger Yin Souls.

The hateful thing was that due to the presence of the defense array, originally invisible Yin Souls could now be observed exhibiting some fluctuations.

The opponent’s Flaming Arrows were fired directly toward areas with strong fluctuation.

Later on, the opponent probably felt the Flaming Arrows consumed too much Inner Breath and actually switched to the Fireball Technique.

The problem was that the Fireball Technique was also quite effective in use.

Thus, although the opponent was struggling, appearing utterly embarrassed, and with the defense array teetering, they continued to persist.

"We can’t wait any longer!" The withered man’s figure flickered, standing atop the mountain, raising his hand to perform the Finger Technique, "Ice Arrow!"

He still had a large number of unused Yin Souls, some even A-level.

But the losses that night were already considerable; he decided to take action personally, ending the opponent.

However, in the next moment, abnormal fluctuations emerged from within the opponent’s defense array.

Then a voice cried out softly, "Rock Shield... which Supreme is joking around?"

The withered man’s eyes squinted, "Earth Attribute Supreme? Is this a damn... trap?"

He genuinely didn’t realize that the young girl was actually an Earth Attribute Supreme.

Considering she was a Supreme, she wouldn’t likely be so bored to be touring the snowy mountains!

But as for the Earth Attribute... he chuckled, if encountered in a densely populated area, one-on-one, he would admit defeat.

Yet here in the sparse Kongming Mountain Range, during the night, he wasn’t apprehensive at all!

It would just take more effort, but... perfect!

"Ha, worrying about the lack of Supreme-level Yin Souls, since you seek death, don’t blame me then, Ice Seal!"

He sealed only the area of the house; although the Earth Attribute could burrow underground to escape, still... just right!

If the opponent left the defense array, his large number of Yin Souls could come into play.

Is the Earth Attribute’s defense strong? That’s merely against physical attacks; for soul bodies, it’s practically defenseless.

Yet the opponent’s Earth Attribute was also exceptional, "Mountain Rock Blessing, Earth Spike!"

His judgment was spot-on, as a cluster of Earth Spikes appeared right beneath his feet.

Is this person an idiot? The withered man was slightly surprised; I’m a damn Supreme.

Without delay, he just took to the air when he heard another soft shout, "Found you... Continuous Stone Bullet!"

The man on the opposite side spoke too, "Is there some misunderstanding, Supreme? Can’t we just leave?"

Despite his words, the Fireball Technique continued to be unleashed, desperately maintaining the defense array.

The withered man’s figure flickered multiple times, narrowly dodging the continuous Stone Bullets, enraged momentarily.

"Where are the Eight Generals? Attack for me!"

Eight dark figures revealed themselves, exhibiting both humanoid and animal-like fluctuations.

Amidst the chaos, there was a piercing sound as the shadowy figures rushed toward the house.

For a moment, it was hard to distinguish between the howling mountain wind and the shrill cries of the shadows.

"Die!" In the next moment, a furious roar echoed from the house, "Silver Snake Frenzy!"

Instantly, a massive amount of electrical light descended from the sky—it was the Nemesis of Yin Souls—Electromagnetic Technique!

"I... damn..." The withered man’s expression changed, "Electromagnetic Supreme, indeed, it’s a trap!"

There was no time for him to think about how the opponent suddenly switched from A-level Fire Attribute to Electromagnetic Supreme.

Anyway, for him, encountering Electromagnetic Supreme meant running away was the right choice.

Even if he could use a large number of Yin Soul attacks, the opponent only needed to don Electromagnetic Armor, and the Yin Souls would be powerless.

Unless he used a massive amount of Yin Souls to exhaust the opponent to death, but such a cost was not one he was willing to bear.

Yet, in the next moment, a thought of unwillingness surged in his heart: this is my lair, why should I run?

He cultivated using human souls, and once this reached the Imperial territory, given the vastness of the Empire, there would be no place for him.

When captured by the Empire, death would not be certain—wrong, it definitely wouldn’t be death, but a fate worse than death!

Currently, there was only an Electromagnetic Supreme and an Earth Attribute Supreme—if he fought hard... it wouldn’t necessarily be too bad!

Undoubtedly, the loss would be disastrous, and even if he won, he would still have to flee.

But leaving any survivors would confirm his guilt, and a bounty by the Empire would follow.

The opponent currently had only these two Supremes; even though there was a Nemesis attribute, it indicated the opponent didn’t thoroughly grasp his situation.

So this battle was inevitable.

He hadn’t realized that this kind of psychological change was somewhat peculiar.

He had found many reasons to confront the enemy, but in reality, if he wanted to follow the original plan to avoid battle, there would be no shortage of reasons.

In short, it was quite mysterious, and he was completely unaware of it, "You forced me! Two Great Generals, full attack!"

Again, two groups of black shadows emerged, attacking the Defense Array, both carrying an aura of Supreme.

He himself was unable to continue the attack because the Earth Attribute Supreme kept chasing him.

As a Water Attribute Supreme, his combat power was indeed a bit weaker, and while Earth Attribute attacks were blunt, the power was undoubtedly strong.

Just then, he suddenly heard a soft command, "Cold Flame Bullet!"

A slightly blue light sphere shot out, directly hitting a group of A-level shadows—one of the Eight Great Generals!

The shadow immediately began to burn, struggling painfully, with faint cries of agony echoing.

The withered man was greatly shocked, "There’s actually Light Attribute... B-level?"

Cold Flame Bullet looks somewhat like Fireball Technique, but it is not. It’s an upgrade of Light Magic’s "Firefly Technique".

Firefly Technique is mainly used for illumination, and Cold Flame Bullet as well, the latter having a bit more power.

By comparison, Fire Element or Electromagnetic Technique can also provide illumination, but the energy in these two latter techniques is too strong, leading to unpredictable consequences.

Not speaking of the army, but in civilian mining, under conditions of excessive gas, it’s impossible to use these techniques for illumination.

In such cases, Cold Flame Bullet and Firefly Technique are quite suitable choices.

Of course, Qu Jianlei’s disdain wasn’t wrong—these techniques indeed have a narrow application—but sometimes, there’s no alternative.

However, against Yin Souls, Cold Flame Bullet is an absolute Nemesis, surprisingly able to set them ablaze.

At this point, the withered man seriously hesitated; it appeared that fleeing might be the only option.

But what he couldn’t understand was, even though there were only two people on the opposing side, how could they cast so many types of techniques?

Especially this Light Attribute—having been the Grand Patriarch, he knew how rare Awakened with such attributes are.

He also understood that some Supremes dual cultivate other attributes, and some Awakened dare to experiment at A-level.

But such actions are not encouraged by the Empire, especially trying at A-level, it’s near suicidal.

And this Light Attribute had reached B-level, probably an Initial Attribute, meaning a newcomer.

But he just couldn’t comprehend, with no one around, where did these supporters come from?

Could it be that they saw through the essence of Yin Souls and were using some Secret Technique to intimidate him?

He hadn’t had time to figure it out when a Thunder Dragon appeared, striking one of the shadows of the "Two Great Generals".

The shadow cried out loudly—this time, it was a real wail—even though it was just a Soul Body, but it was a Supreme Soul Body!

In the next moment, another Cold Flame Bullet was launched, hitting the Supreme Soul Body during the paralysis caused by the lightning.

This Soul Body surprisingly also caught fire and began burning fiercely.

From the burning effect, Cold Flame Bullet against a Supreme Soul Body caused the shadow to dissipate at a much slower rate.

But this shadow struggled painfully, unable to attack at all.

Immediately afterward, another Thunder Dragon was launched, striking the other Supreme Soul Body.

"Can’t wait any longer, escape!" The withered figure instantly made a choice.

However, as soon as he began to move, an even thicker Thunder Dragon appeared and hit him directly.

"I... damn... A second Electromagnetic Supreme!" The withered man completely understood—this was specially arranged for my siege!

He could no longer consider where these people emerged from, nor did he have time to think about how he was exposed.

His mind was filled with only one thought: escape quickly!

Sadly, the attack power of this Thunder Dragon was too strong, causing his whole body to stiffen, falling uncontrollably to the ground.
