Chapter 1361: The Method
Chapter 1361: The Method
The two of them sat down in the cave and only then realized this cave was quite unusual. There were plenty of demon beasts along this mountain range, so why hadn’t any come into this cave?
The couple swept through with their Divine Sense but didn’t discover anything.
"Junior, your luck is really something else. Even I’m jealous."
"Senior, what’s different about this place?"
"There’s Geng Metal here that even Nascent Soul Cultivators would want, though this ore vein is still quite small."
"An ore vein? Can I put it away?"
"Of course you can. This is much easier than a Spirit Vein."
Chen Xue Man told Su Yuanyuan the location of the Geng Metal ore veins. Su Yuanyuan directly broke open the stone layer, formed a series of complicated hand seals, and a lion-shaped lump of gold flew out, wrapped in a Light Ball.
Su Yuanyuan quickly stored it into the space, and at the same time released Qi Hao and Qi Xuan.
"Go into your dad’s space." Against that Divinity Transformation Stage Demon Cultivator, they could only use the space; otherwise there was no way to survive.
Tan Shaoting still hadn’t figured out what use his wife’s actions had.
Su Yuanyuan grabbed his hand and wrote her idea in his palm.
Tan Shaoting was unwilling. He didn’t want his wife in danger.
"If we don’t do this, it’ll be even more dangerous."
Tan Shaoting fell silent at that. Right now it was like a blade hanging over their heads; they could be finished at any moment.
"How about you go in too. That way he might be even more curious."
Su Yuanyuan was afraid Tan Shaoting would get hurt. She herself had treasures on her; that Demon Cultivator definitely wouldn’t kill her right off the bat.
"Yuanyuan."
"You’ll respond from the inside."
Tan Shaoting nodded reluctantly. This was the only way. A man letting his own wife face danger alone really was suffocatingly frustrating.
Now only Su Yuanyuan was left in the cave. She chatted with Chen Xue Man.
"Senior, if this doesn’t work, I’m screwed."
Chen Xue Man thought to herself, if you’re done for, then there’s no one left at all.
"Think about how you can lure that Demon Cultivator into the trap.
But don’t get careless. He’s not some ordinary thing or person; it’s possible you won’t be able to take him in."
Su Yuanyuan tugged at the corner of her mouth. "Senior, what can I do? I’ll just deal with it as it comes."
"You can find something to attract him. Didn’t you notice just now? He’s a very curious person."
Su Yuanyuan thought about what she had that could attract him.
She really couldn’t think of anything. Maybe something not from the Cultivation World would attract him?
Su Yuanyuan took a laptop out of the space and played some upbeat music. Feeling that wasn’t enough, she quickly searched around and finally found the most popular Cultivation TV drama. That would do.
She set it facing the cave entrance. This way he should be able to notice it, right?
On the other side, the Demon Cultivator had already finished off that Second Elder of the Independent Practitioner Alliance, put away his Storage Bag, and headed toward the cave where Su Yuanyuan was with a cheerful smile.
He hadn’t sensed any spatial fluctuation; that should mean that woman actually had a Life Space. Now that was a good thing. He had everything now—except a Life Space.
What a perfect pillow delivered when he was dozing off. Someone was delivering a fine treasure right to his door.
The Fifth-rank Array Plate outside had already been replaced by a Third-tier Array Plate by Su Yuanyuan; Fifth Rank ones were too expensive.
The Demon Cultivator Lin Dakai just waved his hand lightly and the array plate shattered.
Su Yuanyuan turned back in terror, and the laptop happened to appear right in front of Lin Dakai. Onscreen it was currently a scene of a white-robed Immortal wreaking havoc.
Lin Dakai was of course curious. In that split second, Su Yuanyuan seized the opportunity, and the Demon Cultivator was sucked into the space.
Su Yuanyuan immediately collapsed limply to the ground. Though it sounded drawn out, it had truly happened in just an instant.
And that Demon Cultivator was at the Divinity Transformation Stage, while Su Yuanyuan was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage. Even though her Divine Sense was powerful, without the cooperation of the Artifact Spirit of the space, she wouldn’t have succeeded.
She immediately contacted the Artifact Spirit to strangle the Demon Cultivator.
Inside the space, Su Yuanyuan was the absolute existence. She could lord over everything within.
The Demon Cultivator Lin Dakai wanted to struggle, but how could he? He wanted to roar in unwillingness, but didn’t even get that chance.
As his soul was being torn apart, he was filled with regret, disbelief, and unwillingness. It had been extremely hard for him to reach where he was today; how could he die in such a suffocating way?
When that Demon Cultivator died, Su Yuanyuan also came to know his entire life. It really had been smooth sailing for him. Who would have thought he’d die without even a proper face-to-face with her, who hadn’t said a single word.
Su Yuanyuan wasn’t feeling great herself. After all, he was a Divinity Transformation Cultivator. Even though she was the master of the space, the gap between them was too vast, and that made her Divine Sense feel exhausted. This was something that hadn’t happened in all these years.
Afraid Tan Shaoting would worry, she immediately released him.
Just now Tan Shaoting had also been scared out of his wits. He had personally witnessed that Divinity Transformation Demon Cultivator being strangled to death.
He had already prepared himself for battle, but hadn’t expected that Divinity Transformation expert to fall without ever noticing him.
"Yuanyuan, how are you?"
Su Yuanyuan leaned against Tan Shaoting. "My Divine Sense is a bit overdrawn, but everything else is fine."
Only then did Tan Shaoting relax. Hugging Su Yuanyuan, he sat down and also released Qi Hao and Qi Xuan.
The whole family knew there was no longer any danger now, but others didn’t.
Back then Liu Xiaozhu had told them to run for their lives because she’d thought they might all end up dying here.
"Should we wait here for a while?"
Tan Shaoting nodded. "Sure, I’ll reset the Array."
Su Yuanyuan took out the Demon Cultivator’s corpse.
She didn’t bother with anything else; she left all the operations to Tan Shaoting.
This Demon Cultivator had several Storage Rings, but they had no Demonic Qi, so they couldn’t open them.
However, the Storage Ring and Storage Bag of that Second Elder of the Independent Practitioner Alliance could be opened.
"Yuanyuan, look, this Elder really was quite rich."
There were a full three million top-grade Spirit Stones.
"Looks like the Independent Practitioner Alliance was determined to get this Immortal Sword."
Su Yuanyuan nodded at Chen Xue Man’s words as well. Indeed, even for a wealthy Nascent Soul Cultivator, having this many Spirit Stones was rare.
Tan Shaoting handed the Immortal Sword to Su Yuanyuan. Holding it in her hand, she didn’t feel anything particularly special.
"Yuanyuan, you should hurry up and form a bond with it. This thing is an Immortal Artifact; see what’s different about it." Tan Shaoting wanted his wife to have the good stuff.
Su Yuanyuan didn’t stand on ceremony, mainly because she just had this feeling that it was hers.
The method to form a bond with an Immortal Artifact appeared in her mind. She suddenly entered meditation.
It was as if a barrier had formed around Su Yuanyuan. Even Qi Hao and Qi Xuan couldn’t get close.
Tan Shaoting held his two sons and watched the woman sitting there, bathed in a faint golden light. All of a sudden, she gave off a feeling of being high above and unapproachable, like a lofty God that they, a group of mere mortals, could only look up to.
