YM778.TV Chapter 234 - The Scum Is Sly
Compared to the tense people below the abyss, the people above the abyss who should be wrapped in tension are more relaxed.
"There should be more than a hundred of them. How many can you kill?" Chen Han asked Tang Zhe.
Tang Yun\'s eyes widened in shock. "We\'re really killing them?!" he exclaimed.
"If not?" Chen Han asked back as he unsheathed his sword. Then, he turned to Li Tian. "Wife, do you have an idea how can we kill them faster?" he asked. They have to regroup with Cheng Sheng and the others.
Li Tian has the same thought with Chen Han. He wanted to see his fellow disciples. "En." Li Tian nodded. "I can try the Suppression Array of Cheng-shidi to immobilize the insects." He said.
"You can use an array?!" Guo Cheng was shocked.
Li Tian smiled. "The foundation is there, and Cheng-shidi taught me the specifics. However, I\'d need to use more qi, since arrays need qi the most in alchemy." He explained.
"Xiao Yun." Tang Zhe called. "You can\'t currently fight since you\'re recovering, but you can help by giving him qi." he told him.
"Yes." Tang Yun nodded.
"Guo-shidi." Tang Zhe called. "Weaken the insects while he suppresses them with the array." He told him.
"Yes!" Guo Cheng answered.
"Shan-shidi…" Tang Zhe called. "Just hack the insects to death." He told him.
"En!" Shan Lu nodded.
"Go?" Chen Han asked.
"Go." Tang Zhe answered as he, Shan Li and Chen Han jumped down and sliced off the head of the insects nearest to them.
"Start!" Li Tian said as he raised his hand and closed his eyes to draw an array on the ground beneath the insects\' feet. Tang Yun immediately placed his hand on Li Tian\'s back to give him qi.
Guo Cheng turned and saw Li Tian\'s face paled and was beaded with sweat, and so he also placed his hand behind Li Tian to give him qi while also throwing fire talismans on the insects that neared the three who ran towards them to attack them.
"Disperse!" Chen Han told Tang Zhe and Shan Lu when he saw an array appeared in front of them.
Tang Zhe and Shan Lu knew that not only the insects, but also them would be affected by the array if they were trapped within. And so they jumped away and fled to different directions to kill the other insects first before they finally kill the ones trapped in the array and are weakened.
In the abyss, Cave of Retribution.
"… they are fighting?!" they exclaimed when they saw the sword glares of different colors flashed in the darkness above them.
"Da ge?! What happened?!" Jing Kang asked in alarm. The tremors from the explosion finally stopped, and so they are planning to break the wall.
"Chen Han, along with some other contestants, are fighting – " Jing Cheng said as they watched a carcass fell, then was followed by more carcasses. " – the gigantic insects above the abyss." He said.
"What?!" Feng Mo exclaimed. "How many are there?!" he asked.
"… more than a hundred." Jing Cheng answered.
"What?!" it was Sun Yi. "Da shixiong is strong. However, you said the enemies are gigantic… he would need a hand. A strong one." He said.
"Wait." Xi Ming spoke. "If Chen Han is looking for Cheng Sheng, then Cheng Sheng wasn\'t with him." he said. "Cheng Sheng wasn\'t with us, and neither with the Zunjingde Sect. That meant, Cheng Sheng is missing." He looked at Sun Yi and Feng Mo since they belong to Cheng Sheng\'s group before he turned to Jing Kang. "You said Chen Han is with someone?" he asked.
Jing Kang saw the light. "Da ge, what\'s the color of the sword glare that\'s together with Chen Han\'s?" he asked.
"Golden yellow." Jing Cheng answered.
They all momentarily paused and fell silent before they exploded. "It\'s the missing Huakai Sect!" they exclaimed.
(The Huakai Sect: we\'re not missing! You\'re the one missing! Your whole family is missing!)
Sun Yi smiled, obviously pleased. "Da shixiong will definitely succeed." He said.
They all nodded in agreement. Definitely, the Huakai Sect, although unfortunate, but are strong. There\'s no need to say about Tang Zhe. Tang Yun, although young, but is comparable with Feng Mo and Jing Hei. Guo Cheng is comparable with Jing Kang. Then, there\'s Shan Lu that, although stupid, but as strong as Tang Zhe.
They all definitely could wipe out those insects. Even more – "Ugh." They grunted when they felt an oppressive force from above.
"This is…" they gritted their teeth.
"A Suppressing… Array?" Jing Kang asked when he could feel the magical fluctuation through the wall. However, they are outside the scope of the array, so they were unaffected.
"This is impossible. Cheng Sheng isn\'t with them!" Kang Ce reacted. "Or, is Chen Han playing with us?" he frowned.
"Why would my da shixiong play with you? My da shixiong is honest, compared to me." Sun Yi graciously smiled.
Kang Ce and the others. "…" why was it yourself you compared with?! Shouldn\'t it be me?!
The Zunjingde Sect and Qian Lin in the other side of the wall. "…" can you stop chit-chatting for a while and think how can you help us here?!
"Cheng-shidi definitely isn\'t with Chen-shixiong." Feng Mo spoke.
"But, we can\'t deny the fact that it is the Suppressing Array used." Xi Ming said.
"Or, someone learned the Suppressing Array." Gong Xian said.
They all fell silent, including the Zunjingde Sect on the other side of the wall. Except for Sun Yi and Feng Mo who smirked. "Why can\'t it be learned?" Feng Mo asked. "Have you forgotten that our sect – the Xinfaxian Sect, have two junior apprentices?" he asked.
It finally dawned on them. One is You Rou, a magic pill mage. However, she isn\'t a contestant. And the other one is – "Li Tian." They all spoke.
Li Tian is a spell caster, but Spell Casting isn\'t short on Array Drawing. Instead, it is the closest to Array Drawing compared to the remaining three areas of the alchemy: Pill Refining, Potion Brewing and Talisman Making. Spell Casting is the closest, since it requires the words to be spoken, as well as the spatial skill to cast the spell.
And Array Drawing also just needed a spatial skill to be created. Li Tian, no doubt, is a hardworking person and talented despite his physical strength is average. Thus, it shouldn\'t be a wonder how can he learn to create an array.
Wasn\'t there the creator himself to teach Li Tian? The teacher is none other than, undoubtedly, Cheng Sheng.
