The powerful Qi flow erupted from the bishop and his people, and the villagers staggered backward.
“They are so powerful, it seems like we are no match for them.”
“We are destined to lose to them today. Who knows where the Outsiders came from.”
The villagers in Stone Village had all sorts of thoughts. However, they would not surrender just because of this.
They had to protect the guardian spirit and their village even if they had to die!
What they did not know at this moment was that the bishop was so shocked that he could not speak. He had not expected that this group of people would be so powerful!
He had been viewing them as mere, simple villagers that were at the bottom of the continent’s food chain.
But the ordinary villagers before him had only retreated half a step despite the pressure of the Great Soul Master’s soul power!
What was up with them? How unbelievable!
This group of Outsiders was the cream of the crop on Martial Soul Continent. However, they were only able to make the villagers of Perfect Continent, who were supposedly at the bottom of the food chain, only take half a step back.
For the first time, the bishop felt as if his worldview had collapsed! He couldn’t accept it, hoping for it to only be a fluke.
Fortunately, he had not challenged the other tribes in the Great Wastelands or they might not be able to stand their ground.
It was a good thing that their abilities were slightly better than the villagers. Otherwise, they would have died here if they had attacked directly.
The people behind the bishop also felt the same way, as one could tell from their heavy faces.
It was obvious that both parties had noticed something after they had met each other. They knew that the abilities of the villagers in front of them could not be underestimated. Some of them had already thought of retreating.
“What kind of continent have we been teleported to?” One of them murmured. He had the same thought as the bishop.
“We should leave, find out if there is a teleportation array formation around, and return to Martial Soul Continent as soon as possible.” Another person murmured.
“No.” At this moment, the bishop was caught between a rock and a hard place. They had just provoked someone they probably shouldn’t have. If they retreated suddenly, who knew what would happen?
At the moment, it was as if both parties were at a standstill. Neither made a move. The bishop had not expected that he would come to Stone Village to steal something only to be slapped in the face before he was able to start.
The villagers of Stone Village were also frozen to their spots but they did not let their guards down.
After a moment, the bishop made a decision.
Even though he had just learned about Perfect Continent’s ability, the villagers before him were probably those from a lower realm.
His party, on the other hand, were the elites from Martial Soul Continent. And yet, their ability was only slightly better than this group of villagers.
If they were to attempt to venture beyond the Great Wastelands like this, they would probably be cannon fodder.
But so what if they couldn’t defeat the others? They were now in the Great Wastelands, and their abilities were already a shock to the villagers. Why didn’t they just carry out their original plan to take Stone Village for themselves?
Moreover, Stone Village was the target of public criticism. If they didn’t take action, the other villages would eventually do the same anyway.
In addition, if the cultivators of Perfect Continent were so powerful, their treasures must be even more so. He could cultivate in Stone Village and find another way to return to Martial Soul Continent after his rapid progress.
The bishop and the others had a lot of thoughts running through their mind, but externally, they had simply blinked once.
The bishop was about to raise his arm and instruct his team members to kill the people of Stone Village.
Rumble!
Dazzling lightning flashed across the sky, tearing the dark clouds apart.
Boom…
The lightning bolt slithered down from the sky and landed on the willow tree of Stone Village, went through its trunk, and hit the grass.
However, everyone’s attention had been on the willow tree. When the lightning struck, no one noticed that a blade of grass under the willow tree was being surrounded by a terrifying Qi flow.
The black clouds slowly descended, as if it was about to press down on the ground. The quasi-purple lightning danced around wantonly and arrogantly. A fierce wind whistled in and made it difficult for everyone to stand on their feet.
The sudden appearance of such a strange phenomenon shocked everyone. They only felt fear and unease, but it was quickly replaced by excitement.
“The shocking power of this lightning must mean that there is something strange about Stone Village. An unparalleled magic treasure is about to appear.” The bishop and the others watched the situation unfold excitedly.
It was as if a treasure was placed right before them, beckoning.
If that was the case, they had to snatch it.
However, Ye Yun would let them know in a short while just how ridiculous their thoughts were.
This strange phenomenon was actually caused by him. He was about to break through and level up very quickly. The lightning that enveloped Stone Village was caused by him transcending the Three Thousand Conscience tribulations and refining his soul.
In the sky, dark clouds crawling with lightning condensed. Ye Yun’s roots, which were already more than a hundred meters long, started to shake, causing continuous tremors on the ground.
The rocks jumped and swayed as if they were about to fall.
At that moment, a terrifying Qi flow filled Stone Village. The bishop and his group who had been emitting their soul power found themselves unable to breathe for a moment.
It was as if a pair of invisible giant hands were pinching their necks. Their faces turned red and purple as they struggled for air.
“Motherf*cker, what’s going on?!” When the villagers of Stone Village saw the scene before them, they were momentarily stunned. What kind of situation was this?! Could it be that they were the ones who caused this?
“You… used… some kind of method…” The bishop’s face was flushed red as he forcefully spat out those words from his throat.
The bishop felt as if something was amiss. For such a strange phenomenon to happen, could it be that a treasure had appeared? Or perhaps there was a cultivator at the peak of cultivation lying in ambush in the village?
The bishop suddenly felt that he had an inexplicable urge to kowtow under such power.
“It must be a consequence delivered by the expert. There’s something wrong with the village! There must be a hidden peak expert cultivator!” The bishop affirmed.
“No wonder the people from the other tribes lured us here. They must have known!”
“However, the power of the Qi flow has almost suffocated us! What should we do?! What is the strongest method we have to escape this?”
But the bishop looked quite helpless.
If he had known, he wouldn’t have provoked Stone Village.
‘Is this the day we die?’ The bishop and the others could not help but think as their faces filled with grief.
Plop!
The villagers of Stone Village were dumbfounded by what they saw next. They could not believe their eyes when the Outsiders suddenly knelt before them.
‘What was going on? Why did they suddenly kneel? We did not do anything!’
But in truth, even the villagers of Stone Village were also starting to feel that their legs couldn’t hold on much longer. They almost knelt too, but they managed to survive it.
The ground started to shake more frequently and violently as dense wisps of sword Qi danced around in the sky above. Each movement was followed by a sharp whistle as the sword Qi cut through the air.
Even though the sword Qi was in the sky, its movements could be heard so clearly that the Outsiders’ ears started to bleed..
