Chapter 364: Comparing Compulsion Techniques
"Leave everything to me." Yu Nianzhen said and looked at the other side of the formation.
Outside the formation, more than a thousand people were waiting.
A dozen or so were deducing the defence formation while the rest were waiting for the array to break.
"Don’t even think about breaking through from here." Jiang Yue muttered.
Soon after, the jade slips began to fly around and one of the enemy formation masters roared in anger.
"You may be a fifth-level formation master but there are more than ten of us. It’s only a matter of time before we break the formation."
"It doesn’t matter how many there are of you. Don’t strain your brains to do what you can’t." Jiang Yue retorted.
"Wait there for us to break through. I will eat that brain you are so proud of."
When Yu Nianzhen heard that, his heart turned cold and a trace of killing intent escaped his body.
He hated when others threatened Jiang Yue.
Originally, the Death Flower Ascension Front was an irreconcilable enemy he was determined to eliminate.
However, the person who threatened his beloved, Yu Nianzhen didn’t want him to have an easy death.
With such thoughts in mind, he looked at the person and remembered his face.
"Fellow Daoists, is this really necessary?" Someone asked and Yu Nianzhen looked at the person.
The speaker was a middle-aged woman.
She had a strict face but the changes in her expressions implied kindness.
If she was in his previous life, Yu Nianzhen would have pegged her for a school teacher.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t a school teacher but a disciple of the enemy.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, what do you mean?" Someone asked.
However, the woman ignored the person and spoke directly to Yu Nianzhen and Jiang Yue.
"Two fellow Daoists are very talented. Without my Death Flower Ascension Front, you will never make progress in the Cangxing world. If cultivators don’t fight against the sky, they are destined to end up as a handful of loess."
As she spoke, Yu Nianzhen felt a tugging in his soul and immediately became more vigilant.
’Is she using the same compulsion technique as XiaoYue?’ He wondered.
However, he wasn’t worried that she would compel him.
After all, his soul was already at the peak of the fifth level.
If someone wanted to compel him, their soul power had to be higher than his.
"Two fellow Daoists, why don’t we remove the barrier between us and have a proper talk?"
"Fellow Daoist Yu, you should know that senior Liu Bai is one of the most powerful swordsmen in the Cangxing world. If you let us in, you can ask senior Liu Bai for advice."
"Senior Liu was previously an elder of the sword sect. While she was there, she learned all the secret sword techniques of the sword sect. You will benefit a lot if you join my Death Flower Ascension Front."
"I heard that fellow Daoist Yu and fellow Daoist Jiang were disciples of the Sea Cloud sect. Your sect is already part of our Front. Your sect master is our Front’s pillar elder and he will definitely take care of you when you join."
"Two fellow Daoists, we can talk more when we break the formation. We will break from the outside while you do it from the inside."
"Are you not ashamed to call your technique a compulsion illusion technique?" Jiang Yue took a moment from his work to sneer at the woman.
At the same time, his voice changed from ordinary to a mysterious lilt that tugged at the woman’s being.
"Joining the Death Flower Ascension Front should have improved your talent. Unfortunately, you are still as ordinary as you were before you stole someone’s foundation."
"But don’t worry, your friends are all the same. Look at them..., they have been deducing for so long but their combined effort can equal to one of me."
"The lot of you are truly pathetic. If I were you, I wouldn’t want to exist in this world. If you die, you may have a lucky reincarnation."
"Think about it, one experiences thirty years in hell and thirty years in heaven. This time, the heavens gave you bad talent. If you die and reincarnate, you will usually be more talented than the heavenly geniuses of our generation."
"Think about the Cangxing list. You will be at the top. A peerless genius like you will surely have a domineering title. At that time, you will rule the Cangxing world."
"Everyone in the world will have to grovel at your feet. They will have to use a low voice when they talk to you and all the beauties in the world will belong to you."
"The only thing standing between you and a lucky reincarnation is your life."
As soon as Jiang Yue’s last words fell, one of the enemy disciples let out a loud scream.
Everyone turned to look at him and saw that his eyes were red.
He looked crazed and his body exuded a dangerous aura.
"He is going to explode himself." Someone shouted and the disciples of the Death Flower Ascension Front began to scatter.
The formation masters also retreated while Yu Nianzhen rushed to Jiang Yue.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"I am fine but I have exhausted my soul power." Jiang Yue said and swallowed a soul replenishing technique.
"You are amazing."
"Aren’t I?" Jiang Yue said and chuckled.
Originally, he wanted to compel the woman who tried to compel him and Yu Nianzhen.
However, her soul power was high and he didn’t think he couldn’t get her to explode herself.
After figuring it out, Jiang Yue found the cultivator with the weakest soul power and focused everything on him.
At first, Jiang Yue only wanted to make a point by compelling him to kill himself but didn’t expect the enemy would explode himself which was so much better.
"Brothers, sisters, if we die now, we will surely have a lucky reincarnation." The man shouted crazily while chasing his fellows who were trying to get away from him.
A moment later, his body exploded and the camp’s defence formation trembled from the impact.
On the inside of the formation, Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen felt the tremors but weren’t affected.
When the tremors ended, the two walked closer to the formation and looked out.
"XiaoYue, you took out more than half their group." Yu Nianzhen said in surprise.
"Unfortunately, that person exploded even his soul and won’t have a chance to reincarnate. So much for a lucky reincarnation." Jiang Yue said and shrugged.
"Take some time to replenish your soul power before they reorganise."
"Okay."
A few moments after Jiang Yue began to meditate, a large group of people flew towards the two.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, we heard an explosion. What happened?" Someone asked.
"One of the enemies exploded himself. He took out at least five hundred." Yu Nianzhen answered.
"Why?"
"Are the enemies fighting amongst themselves?"
"Who cares? Isn’t it good for them to kill themselves?"
"Fellow Daoist Yu, can you tell us what happened?" Meng Zihua asked.
"XiaoYue used an illusion technique and tricked the person to explode himself." Yu Nianzhen said with a hint of pride in his voice.
However, he didn’t give more details.
After all, Jiang Yue’s method was too dangerous.
If others knew that Jiang Yue could compel others into killing themselves, they would become wary and vigilant.
Yu Nianzhen didn’t want that for Jiang Yue so he didn’t give the specifics of the attack.
"Brother Yu, Brother Jiang has climbed to the top of the rankings." Xuan Ke informed as soon as he was within talking distance of Yu Nianzhen.
"Ranking?" Yu Nianzhen muttered and turned to the screen in front of spiritual pools’ land.
"Brother Jiang is amazing. There is a difference of three hundred points between Brother Jiang and the second place."
"The distance will only keep growing." Yu Nianzhen said proudly which made Xuan Ke roll his eyes.
"Brother Jiang is now number one. What about you?" Xuan Ke disdained.
"His ranking is better than yours." A contemptuous voice said and everyone turned to Jiang Yue.
"Brother Xuan, do you dare disdain my Taoist companion when there is a more than one hundred points difference between the two of you?"
’I should never have gotten into this muddy water.’ Xuan Ke immediately regretted.
Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret so he had to stand there and listen to Jiang Yue’s mocking for a few moments.
When Jiang Yue finally let him go, Xuan Ke sighed in relief and vowed never to mess with the two again.
However,...
"They are gathering again." Meng Zihua mentioned and everyone looked outside the formation.
As she said, the disciples of the Death Flower Ascension Front who survived the explosion were gathering with others who came to investigate the explosion.
The enemies gathered and whispered amongst themselves for a long time before looking inside the formation.
