Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 1273: Captured Alive
Yama Island.
The eyes of the black-robed King Yama were full of flashes as he watched the scene outside the 1st hidden island on the holographic screen, deep in thought. The overwhelming power displayed by the Great Tang Empire made him worry and fear. However, he still had two trump cards holding him back from retreating to the Nine Nether Underworld.
The first trump card was a large array he arranged outside of Yama Island. It had a total of 18 layers, with each layer stronger than the previous one. Unless an attacker possessed strength comparable to an Immortal, it was impossible for anyone to destroy them.
The second trump card was his own strength. Although he had yet to reach the Immortal Stage, his strength was comparable to a Great Ascension Stage cultivator. With his strength, he could still fight against this army of tens of thousands of cultivators.
After spending some time observing the situation, King Yama noticed that the strongest among the experts of the Great Tang Empire was only at the Nascent Soul Stage. However, these Nascent Soul Mind Stage experts were all very young. Therefore he became fearful and suspicious there was a possibility of there being a stronger existence among their ranks. If his suspicions were correct, then how high was the cultivation level of this person?
“What exactly did this man do, King Yama?”
The black fox, who was standing behind the left of King Yama, asked curiously while his eyes were fixed on the holographic screen.
King Yama turned his attention to the screen that Black Fox's finger showed. He slightly furrowed his brows when he saw a young man give off a scientific aura.
Don't tell me this guy is trying to break my array?
The layout of the array that enveloped the first island might be simple, but no ordinary cultivator could break it. This array could never be damaged unless an expert comparable to the Spirit Formation Stage used a top grade magic weapon and bombarded them for a very long time.
However, this brat was likely only at the Nascent Soul Stage. There's no way he can understand arrays, right? Moreover cracking the array I have set up?
After he thought up to this point, King Yama let out a disdainful look and lightly said, “He just pretended and showed off. Looking at his appearance, he should be the commander of this army. Still, he was too young and still small. How could he break the array I had set up here? ”
“He tried to solve array?” Black Fox muttered in disbelief.
“Meh, wasted effort.” King Yama sneered. “It is better to let this punk learn the arrangement that I have arranged here, so that they will be struck by fear and retreat earlier.”
Black Fox smiled in response and respectfully said, “King Yama, the arrangement you made here is obviously very strong and very powerful. Let alone this youngster, even a stronger expert would not be able to shake this array in the slightest no matter how hard he wanted to break it. ”
“Betul!”
The other 17 people nodded and agreed with Black Fox's words.
“Let's wait and see, then!” King Yama smilingly said, “They will definitely try to attack the array. Still, they had tens of thousands of people. If they all attacked together, it would take a while before they could break the array that encompassed the 1st hidden island. ”
Suddenly, 5 seconds after he finished speaking, another scene occurred on the holographic screen. The array shield that covered the island that looked like a scene of snow and ice quickly melted and disappeared. The array layer quickly disappeared without a trace in just a few breaths afterwards.
“What really happened?” With a strange expression, Black Fox's voice asked.
King Yama's face darkened. Shame from anger, he tried hard to suppress his agitated feelings. He only watched and scoffed at the efforts of this young man, but his arrangement was broken by him himself after he finished speaking.
Right, the array just cracked. It was done without using any force and easily broke just by breaking its principle.
This bastard ... Damn him!
King Yama emphasized his boiling anger and tried hard not to retreat in front of his subordinates. However, he could not hide the thick killing intent in his eyes when he saw Tang Ahlang on the screen.
On the first hidden island.
Tang Ahlang wiped the sweat on his forehead and took a deep, long breath. Although he had studied arrays diligently in recent time and had learned many profound array principles, it was still somewhat difficult for him to break these arrays by himself. If not for his teacher teaching him some order principles that happened to have some similarities with this array, he would not have been able to break the array in front of him in such a short time.
While standing in the air, Tang Ahlang stretched his body and then looked around at the complete scene in front before he said in a deep voice, “All soldiers, pay attention to my orders! Capture all Darkwind members on this island. Kill anyone mercilessly if they fight back! ”
In an instant, tens of thousands of soldiers in the Aerogliders launched attacks against the ranks on a regular basis. But the entire army formation was still in order even though they were all attacking from all sides.
“Redy! Or you'll all die! ”
A steaming, cold, and gloomy shout came from Tang Jin's mouth. In the next moment, the 50,000 soldiers from the Martial Army shouted the same line in unison. The billowing scream was deafening and drilled straight into the sky.
Black Snake's face was gloomy and cold. A thick killing intent appeared in his bewitching eyes. He was very confident that King Yama would lead the others to save him because he was the King's most loyal subordinate.
“Everyone, take responsibility with me and kill them all! King Yama will definitely lead the rest here. ”
Black Snake roared. A dark scythe suddenly appeared in his hand and his sword light suddenly lit up as he brandished it. Dozens of young warriors in black uniforms from the Martial Soldiers in the vanguard position quickly unleashed and brandished their magical swords in a neat and orderly manner.
Cut…
Just as the blade cut tofu, Black Snake's scythe instantly cut into dozens of pieces, but the violent sword beam continued to slash forward without a slight pause and struck Black Snake in an instant. Despite having a strong cultivation level comparable to the Nascent Soul Stage, Black Snake was severely beaten and left dozens of bloody wounds on his body.
“APAAN!”
Black Snake roared loudly and fled.
The individual strength of these teenagers was only average, but they were adept at joint attack combinations. Although most of them were only at the Golden Core Stage, their combined attacks sharply increased their attack power by several folds and became stronger than the attacks of Nascent Soul Stage experts.
Tang Jin's figure flickered from a distance and instantly appeared at the scene of the battle. With a disdainful expression on his childish face, he shouted loudly, “You have entered our battlefield, you will never be able to escape even if your strength is ten times stronger. Stop your resistance and get arrested, otherwise death will be your only option! ”
Bang, bang, bang …
Black Snake kept trying to break through in several directions, but he ended up being cut down by legionnaires from all sides. What shocked him the most was the death of hundreds of men under him in just a few minutes, while the surviving men gave up and gave up immediately.
“Your suppression is too excessive!”
Black Snake took out a black banner from his sleeve. Waves of cold wind blew as his voice intermittently spelled out a spell. Soon, an endless stream of vengeful spirits flowed out from the ground until the number reached tens of thousands. The strength of these spirits, however, was extremely weak, most of them were only comparable to a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator.
“Hmph, a dying dog that will collapse with one punch.” Tang Jin sneered. He then looked at Tang Ahlang as the latter sent him a voice transmission. “Let him live and catch him with Shackles Eternal.”
Tang Jin's expression changed. He immediately waved his hand to signal to his legion troops to kill the spirits. At the same time, he took out a black rope from his sleeve, chanted a spell and then threw the black rope towards Black Snake in an instant.
“What the fuck is this?”
Black Snake felt like he was crashing into a glacier pit at this moment. He clearly sensed the overwhelming aura of a cultivator who was much stronger than him than a black-clothed teenager who was likely an officer. However, he still hoped that King Yama would rush to save him, so he gritted his teeth and desperately, desperately, pouring black fog onto the black dragon aggressively bared its fangs and claws to clash with the rope.
“Destroying..”.
Tang Jin shouted coldly as he released his immortal sword. It shot out quickly and turned into a beam that shattered the black dragon instantly. The black rope quickly revolved around Black Snake and wrapped him tightly.
“You want to catch me? DREAM!”
Black Snake quickly catapulted his Netherworld Force frantically and desperately struggled for a while. But the longer he struggled, the tighter the black rope bond and the weaker his struggle became. Before long, he felt a dark shadow suddenly appear in front of him. A loud punch then struck his forehead, causing him to instantly faint.
Tang Jin smiled coldly. Although this Dragon Cord was not an immortal artifact, it was still a top grade magical tool perfected by Elder Ji Chimei. Unless one possessed strength comparable to an Immortal, it was impossible for him to break free once he was bound by it.
A few minutes later.
All 50,000 soldiers of the Martial Army had landed on the island. After finishing setting up the temporary camp, Tang Jin, Tang Mu, Tang Shui, Tang Huo, and Tang Tu quickly got together with Tang Ahlang. When Tang Jin threw the Black Snake in front of Tang Ahlang, he saluted and asked, “Do you have any instructions on how we will deal with this person, Commander?”
Tang Ahlang slightly smiled in response. He took out a silver needle and pierced the acupoint in Black Snake's body. A few seconds later, Black Snake slowly began to come to his senses, but his expression greatly changed after he saw the people around him. After seemingly remembering something, he suddenly looked up and shouted loudly, “My master King Yama, why didn't you save us? !!”
The Yama Island.
King Yama was standing in front of a holographic screen with a complicated expression on his strange face. His 18 henchmen were his most trusted men. But even though this man was not one of them, he was well aware that the Black Snake's loyalty to him was unquestionable.
It was not that he did not want to save her, but he did not dare to leave Yama Island carelessly. He did not know if there were others hiding among the ranks of the Great Tang Empire's army in the dark. If a large number of powerful experts were to really hide, he would not be able to guarantee a safe escape even for himself.
Hence, he could only give up on her. He did not want to trade his own safety or the safety of his trusted accomplice to save the other subordinates who had lost the chance to escape.
