Chapter 367: Ignored

The Dark Soul Beast raised and bred by the purple-clothed man and the others had already reached Peak-Phase Tier 7 and must devour enough Tier 8 Demonic Beasts or Sword Venerable Sword Masters to be able to advance.

The Tier 8 Demonic Beasts were all hidden in secretive or dangerous places all over the Continent, so the Devil Cultivators naturally wouldn’t risk such huge dangers to find and kill them.

First, Tier 8 Demonic Beasts weren’t stupid either—as if they would stay in one place to be caught—and second, even if they fell into an Array they set up, it would only be one, and would require a lot of time and energy. Such a deal was definitely a loss.

Meanwhile, human Sword Masters were different. They planned to lure Elite Pupils from various Sects, and with one Array, they would be trapped, and the Dark Soul Beast only needed to devour and refine the pupil’s soul essences—it would definitely advance to Tier 8 in a year.

“If you want to turn us into nourishment for the Dark Soul Beast, you also need to have that ability.” Ming Xiu raised an eyebrow.

Jun Luo Chen’s voice sounded in Lou Mu Yan’s Sea of Consciousness, “Little girl, that Dark Soul Beast is a great supplement to me. As long as I devour it and refine it, my Main Soul will be completely consolidated and stabilised.”

“You mean you want me to give you that Dark Soul Beast to nourish you?” Lou Mu Yan rolled her eyes.

“Hehe, don’t worry, after my Main Soul consolidates, there’ll naturally be plenty of benefits for you.” Jun Luo Chen said.

He could do nothing else. His Main Soul was on the verge of collapse, so even if he turned from a Devil Cultivator to a Ghost Cultivator, he wouldn’t be able to easily do it.

But as long as he devoured this Dark Soul Beast, he could completely consolidate his Spirit Soul and he could even help Lou Mu Yan deal with high-level Sword Masters when it came time.

Lou Mu Yan weighed the pros and cons inwardly. Although there were great hidden dangerous lurking in saving this Devil Lord, but the benefits also existed.

In the future, she would also ascend to Guan’ling World and it would also be an extremely interesting event to take the Devil Lord and Mo Yan to slaughter their way back to retrieve the things that originally belonged to them.

“Sure. I’ll get this Dark Soul Beast that delivered itself to our door for you to devour. You’ll help me do three things in the future.” Lou Mu Yan added after a bit, “Of course, I won’t get you to die.”

The corner of Jun Luo Chen’s lips twitched. Since he became a Devil Lord for so many years, no one had dared to speak to him with such a tone. Lou Mu Yan really was the first.

“Alright. I promise you.”

“Swear with a heart demon.” Lou Mu Yan said.

Jun Luo Chen gritted his teeth and asked: “You don’t believe me?”

“Do you think that I, a righteous faction’s pupil, will believe you, a Devil Race person? Not to mention that you’re the former Devil Lord.” Lou Mu Yan said casually.

Her nature was actually rather cold, and only those who had truly entered her heart would she give her full trust to. This Devil Lord was obviously not included.

The heart demon oath was very vicious and no human nor Demonic Beast dared to violate it.

Unless the person who made the oath didn’t want to advance, otherwise once they violated the oath they made on their heart demon, then a shadow of a soaring devil from beyond the highest heavens would cause trouble at critical moments of advancement. Not only would they fail to advance successfully, they may even lose their intelligence and become a mere puppet.

Jun Luo Chen choked. Although he cooperated with Lou Mu Yan, but he didn’t trust her entirely either. The relationship they established wasn’t very reliable, and was only just using each other.

“Alright. I swear by my heart demon.” Jun Luo Chen swore without hesitation.

At this time, the man in purple had already activated the Array and circles of black cyclones appeared in the Array. The pupils of the Six Major Sects only felt that the essence of their bodies were fading little by little. Although slow, but it was enough to make them terrified.

“Chi Xiu, save us quickly.” The leading pupil of the Vast Mountain Sect shouted anxiously.

The purple-clothed man raised a sinister arc on his lips, pointed at Ming Xiu and instructed the men in black around them, “Treat him well.”

Obviously, in his eyes, Ming Xiu wasn’t qualified to let him act.

“Can you break that Array?” Ming Xiu turned to Lou Mu Yan and asked.

Lou Mu Yan nodded: “I can.”

If she no longer hid her talent and strength in Arrays, then it wasn’t difficult for her to quickly break the Array.

“I’ll hold these Devil Cultivators back, you go and rescue them first.” Ming Xiu’s eyes were filled with trust.

“Alright!”

Lou Mu Yan held a golden longsword and walked towards the Array. However, the men in black all ignored her existence along the way and directly attacked Ming Xiu.

“I’m actually ignored by them.” The corner of Lou Mu Yan’s lips twitched, looked at Mo Yan on her shoulder and asked: “I’m that bad?”

Mo Yan’s indifferent eyes were filled with smiles, “Didn’t you like to ‘act as an innocent pig to eat tigers’ the most, isn’t this perfect for you?”

“But it doesn’t feel good to be ignored by everyone.” Lou Mu Yan shrugged and joked.

The purple-clothed man naturally saw Lou Mu Yan’s actions but ignored it.

What a joke. A girl with only Sword Sovereign cultivation base had the ability to break a Grade 5 Array?

Yes. This time they arranged a Grade 5 Array on the top of the mountain. After all, the pupils of the Six Major Sects that were trapped were basically all Sword Venerables. If it were a Grade 4 Array, and there was an Array Master among them, then it would be impossible to trap them to death.

Meanwhile Grade 5 Arrays were different. Even a Sword Saint Sword Master powerhouse wouldn’t be able to break it quickly.

Lou Mu Yan walked to the Array and took out an array compass as she squatted down for a look while Ming Xiu slayed all the men in black who besieged him.

The man in purple didn’t expect that Ming Xiu would have such power, then snorted coldly: “Let me clean up a thorn like you today.”

After speaking, in a flash, he met Ming Xiu’s sword aura that he swung over. Ming Xiu deliberately moved his position, keeping the purple-clothed man away from the vicinity to let Lou Mu Yan display her abilities.

The two fought fiercely near Dark Evil Cliff.

“Try attacking this point.” Lou Mu Yan pointed to a point in the corner of the Array and raised her head to say to the people inside.

The leading pupil of the Vast Mountain Sect sneered: “A little child who knows no limits, do you think you can become a high-level Array Master because you’re holding an array compass? This is a Grade 5 Array. If you know your limits, then get out of the way.”

They were all trapped in this Array that could devour essence, so if they used Elemental Energy, it would speed up the devouring of the Array. If they really listened to this Eight Extremes Sect girl, then they would be fools.

Lou Mu Yan’s eyes turned cold, and her entire temperament changed. She looked sharply at the leading pupil of the Vast Mountain Sect and said coldly: “Shut up if you don’t want to die.”

If it weren’t that the pupils of the Eight Extremes Sect were also trapped in the Array, she wouldn’t rescue these Vast Mountain Sect people at all.

Of course, she noted down his words to tell her to get out of the way.

“You— You dare to speak to me like this.” The leading pupil of the Vast Mountain Sect didn’t expect the girl outside to be so bold and tough, but the other party’s gaze made him tremble.

Lou Mu Yan was too lazy to pay attention to him. Now wasn’t the time to be bickering.

She shifted her gaze to Gu Xiu and Han Yi, then said lightly: “Just do as I say if you want to escape.”

If these people believed her, then she would naturally break the Array with all her strength, but if they didn’t, then she would be too lazy to care.

This Array was a Soul-Locking Array. The key point was to lock the Souls of the people trapped. It was best to attack and break the Array from within.

It would take an hour to break through the Array if they relied on her strength. By that time, the people inside would have lost at least a third of their essence. But if they attacked from the inside and outside, then it would only take an incense stick of time.

It all depended on whether the people trapped in the Array believed her or not!
