Ling Tian had captured cultivators at the twenty-second level. Although Chi Xue and the others were rushing toward the Extreme Ice Plains as fast as they could, they naturally wouldn't pass up any "spoils" along the way. They had attacked the experts they encountered, and after all these years, they'd made some very good gains—such as capturing two cultivators at the middle stage of the twenty-second level.
Cultivators at the middle stage of the twenty-second level were formidable. Ling Tian was confident he wouldn't lose if he faced Chi Xue and the others, but he also knew how difficult it would be to defeat them. After all, Chi Xue and the others could use the God-Devouring Demon Domain to support those experts. At the very least, defeating and capturing Chi Xue and the others without revealing his strength was nearly impossible for Ling Tian.
And if he revealed his true strength, it would undoubtedly have a major impact on their plans going forward.
Since he couldn't capture Chi Xue and the others without exposing his true strength, Ling Tian naturally wouldn't do so. Especially since even if he captured Chi Xue and the others and took the Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures in their possession, that wouldn't increase the total number of Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures the two sides possessed. After all, they would have to join forces eventually.
Indeed, only by capturing a large number of Outer Realm Cultivators could Ling Tian's group and Chi Xue's side possibly increase their combined total of Saint-grade Heavenly Treasures and even find every kind of Saint-grade Heavenly Treasure. So it was important to continue with their original plan.
At that moment, however, Xiao Shi brought up another problem: what if Chi Xue and the others interfered?
It was true. No one knew Ling Tian better
