That vast and dark expanse would be capable of losing a mortal in its vastness, with Yin laws dense enough to quickly corrode natural Yang and extinguish the life of any individual within minutes.
Even common cultivators would perish in this environnt over ti. However, all the evil disciples there were qualified, having survived various trials that guaranteed certain death.
The Yin laws were still exceptionally familiar to these disciples. Although unable to see, everyone could sense the environnt around them and easily fight, relying solely on their sharpened instincts. These cultivators were bloodthirsty and experienced warriors, marking a clear difference from the youth in other parts of the continent that Alm and Bruno had encountered. The sect’s deadly thod had indeed proven to be the most efficient in forming skilled and formidable cultivators.
With everyone inside and the doors closing with a thunderous sound, a sinister silence dominated the place. No one wished to reveal their position, preparing to efficiently murder anyone they encountered. However... it didn’t take long for faint tremors to draw everyone’s attention; a giant whale naturally didn’t move without making noise.
Bruno then communicated ntally through the array with Ruri: ’You are still too weak, and even though you are a woman, you have not practiced Yin laws yet. Focus and perceive all the killing intent approaching with your instincts. Use the laws of the earth that we are sharing through the array to block the enemies and attack their minds, surprising them.’
It took no more than five minutes for dozens of cultivators to silently target the large prey. Alm and Bruno were more familiar with Yin laws than even the patriarch of the sect. It wouldn’t be difficult to conceal their presence even with their oversize, but the goal of this test was to eliminate as many as possible. And despite Alm’s irritation with this fat body, it was convenient.
All evil cultivators were between the first and third levels of the Foundation Establishnt Realm. Only the new recruits Goku and Langrum were at the elentary level of this realm because they had recently broken through. Their level was sothing like level zero, and it took a bit of ti for the realm to stabilize, and they officially entered level one.
Ruri closed her eyes, sealing all senses and fully focusing on this training. To any external observer, it would seem like suicide. What could a child at the fourth level of Qi Gathering do?
Moreover, she had never had the opportunity to use or study the laws of the earth or any other elental law. Bruno’s requirents were completely impossible for any cultivator in these conditions.
Bruno took steps forward calmly and sensed sothing approaching from behind but didn’t react. Then, the sound of tal colliding with a steel fist was heard.
’Sorry... master!’ Ruri spoke ntally after the cultivator attacked Alm and Bruno’s fat backs directly, without her noticing his approach.
Bruno didn’t even bother to defend himself; it was just soone at the first level of the Foundation Establishnt Realm, and the defenses of his physical cultivation were enough to block the attack. With a movent as casual as swatting a fly, a punch from his fists landed on the head of that poor cultivator, who died in the sa second.
’I don’t expect you to get it on the first try. Use the laws of the earth on the ground to sense subtle movents, the killing intent, the movent in the air of Yin laws, the sll of blood coming from them... all are subtle things, but if you stack them, it becos simpler. Don’t rely on just one thing.’ Bruno spoke softly.
Seconds passed as they walked calmly. Alm was completely focused on figuring out everything he could about this tower. Bruno just supervised Ruri and finished off those who attacked. The stronger cultivators rely followed them from a distance; the weaker ones ca first and posed no danger.
After half a dozen sneak attacks, Ruri seed to evolve a bit and managed to block the first cultivator. Of course, she didn’t have the capacity for this with her own power. The laws of the earth from Alm and Bruno were used by her for this. When the target tried to approach, he was caught off guard, and his legs were trapped by the earth. In that mont of surprise, Ruri invaded his mind and stunned him briefly. Then, Bruno attacked and finished everything.
Bruno then sighed, impressed. ’She’s evolving very quickly. If she keeps up at this pace, she’ll be terrifying in the future.’ He could feel her heart beating frantically; if she didn’t need to focus, he was sure she would be smiling happily.
’Control your emotions,’ Bruno told Ruri without giving any praise. He didn’t want to inflate her ego and lose her way.
After ten minutes of testing, Alm finally reached a conclusion, speaking with a greedy air, ’I’m sure sothing inside the abyss is being sealed. The energy the tower is receiving from outside is definitely being converted to create a current.’
Bruno contemplated the idea. ’So the other six towers must be the sa. This is the work of cultivators from the divine realm, so sothing good must be there. I don’t think we’ll be as lucky as with the Divinestone clan formation, and we’re still too weak. But we can take a look when the opportunity arises.’
Alm then added, ’I find it hard to believe that these evil cultivators have any information or hints about it. Since they use the towers for training, they must just be like that pathetic clan, benefiting only from the leftovers.’
Alm finally focused on the environnt they were in. Having a pure Yin soul, he was like a shark in the ocean surrounded by small fish, so he said, ’Let’s just massacre everyone and stop wasting ti.’
Bruno responded calmly. ’We don’t need to bother chasing after them. It seems the young master leading the disciples has realized that attacking like this is pointless and has gathered everyone to strike. Ruri’s training ended quickly, but it was productive.’
All evil cultivators were known for acting in groups to kill, rob, and destroy, just like that small town they saved before. All disciples, trained to the limit of death, were encouraged to form groups from an early age.
The groups of cultivators claiming to follow the righteous path were always ford for a mission with significant rewards involved. No one was willing to rely on soone to watch their backs or trust that the other wouldn’t try sothing strange. Only interest and guarantees moved them.
On the other hand, evil cultivators created an extrely rigid and brutal hierarchy among themselves from an early age. One leader commanded, and the others obeyed without hesitation. There was no interest, only pride and will. If they died, it was because they were weak, and if the leader was incompetent, they simply took his head and beca the new leader. It was simple and direct.
So, after fifteen minutes of testing, a coordinated attack from dozens of cultivators closed in on them. Alm smiled; almost all of them were at the third level of the Foundation Establishnt Realm. That should be the limit they could fight and win in a direct confrontation.
Bruno just sighed. He tried to spare lives as much as he could and agreed to kill only those who ca directly for them. But in this place where everyone relied only on their instincts, Alm was the supre king. Not only could he see and feel perfectly, but he could also steal the Qi around and spare his own. These fools were jumping directly into the mouth of a bloodthirsty shark.
A minute later, everyone inside the tower who wasn’t commanded by the young master heard screams and sounds of earth exploding. Then, their nostrils were invaded by a dense sll of blood.
The sound of bodies falling and exploding every second briefly startled those disciples, but they felt the movent of the leader and didn’t retreat at all.
In the next second, an attack that made the laws tremble was sensed by Alm. It was the young master of that group of enemies personally attacking. Alm then smiled sinisterly and advanced in that direction.
But when he was a few ters away from colliding with him, Alm stopped abruptly. Bruno, who couldn’t see directly in that place, was startled, feeling an extre shock coming from Alm.
Bruno was stunned by Alm suddenly retracting his killing intent, and the young master’s attack ca directly at them, hitting them head-on.
Boom!!!
Ruri was imdiately covered by earth laws, protecting her. Then, the round whale was thrown several ters back, spitting out a lot of blood.
They fell to their knees and slowly got up. ’What the hell did you do, trying to kill us, idiot?!’ Bruno shouted.
Then, Alm murmured ntally, astonished. ’Fuck you! Why don’t you use a little bit of my Yin Laws and see just who is fucking ahead of us?!’
Bruno, surprised by the answer, did exactly that. In the end, he was also left shocked. ’That’s... How can it be?!’
