No Money, Only Lives!
Zhang Yang concealed all his aura and crouched low, quietly approaching the seven Nascent Soul Peak from the Cloud Firmament Palace within the woods.
Through his observations along the way, he discovered that these Nascent Soul who entered the Prodigy Battlefield were indeed quite powerful.
After all, these people were trained by various sects to enter the Prodigy Battlefield to compete for heavenly materials and earthly treasures and Fortune, and it also involved the "betting agreements" between various sects.
Therefore, these geniuses must have been carefully nurtured.
However, Zhang Yang also discovered that these geniuses had significant drawbacks.
They may be experienced in combat and powerful, but most of them don't have that much experience in wilderness survival.
In other words, this group of people were likely trained within a sect in the past.
Even when they go out, they are under the strict protection of the sect, so their experience in real open-world combat is very poor!
For example, Jiang Wu and his group were actually standing on the mountain shouting and yelling... Is this the attitude for entering the Prodigy Battlefield to fight?
Zhang Yang decided to teach these prodigies a lesson today.
I won't take your money, I just want your life!
He kept a close eye on Jiang Wu and his group of seven, silently waiting with his Barrett in hand, just as they put away their shields.
After the seven people had traveled four or five miles away from the mountains, they felt they were out of danger and finally put away their shields.
If they continue like this, their spiritual energy will be greatly depleted.
However, Zhang Yang, who had been waiting for his chance, raised the Golden Barrett the instant they lowered their shields.
"Puff!"
With a crisp sound, the head of a Nascent Soul Peak exploded.
The remaining six people's expressions changed drastically in an instant, and they immediately did their best to raise the shield again.
"Come out here! Come out if you dare!" Jiang Wu was furious.
A close fellow disciple was killed right in front of them!
This is the Nascent Soul Peak!
Even in major sects, those at the Nascent Soul Peak already hold a certain status, because the next step forward is the Primordial Spirit Realm.
What's more, these were all exceptional talents, yet they died so easily.
"You despicable scoundrel, what kind of skill is it to only sneak around? You damned thing, you groundhog, is all you can do is hide in the shadows and ambush people?" Jiang Wu was furious.
He truly never hated this person.
But all that remained in the mountains and fields was his shouting; the silence was eerily profound.
After firing the first shot, Zhang Yang waited silently.
It's good that these people are angered; the faster their spiritual energy is depleted, the faster they'll die.
At this moment, one of the remaining six, a Nascent Soul Peak, hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Jiang, we need to hurry and rejoin the others. With more people, we can use our Spiritual Sense to cover a radius of two or three miles; he definitely won't be able to escape."
There were only six of them left, and they had checked the surrounding area with their Spiritual Sense; there was no one within a radius of four or five hundred meters.
Therefore, they were actually a little apprehensive.
Something that can kill from 700 or 800 meters away, and the key is that it's impossible to defend against; the moment you let your guard down, it's deadly. Who wouldn't be afraid?
Jiang Wu cursed loudly for a while longer before leading his five men away as fast as they could.
They dared not rely on their strength to be alone again.
Only after seeing the six people fly away completely did Zhang Yang regretfully get up from the lawn, carry Barrett back to find Situ Mingyue and the Tiger Demon.
Based on sheer strength, he alone couldn't defeat several Nascent Soul Peak. Chasing after them would only expose his presence, so there was no point in pursuing them any further.
Therefore, we still need to hurry up and search for heavenly materials and earthly treasures to improve our strength.
When they returned to the small mountain, Situ Mingyue, with the help of the Tiger Demon, had already collected all the Identity Mark, a total of forty-two.
Within four or five days of entering the Prodigy Battlefield, they had already obtained more than fifty Identity Mark.
In addition, they also obtained various ordinary swords and knives, as well as many common medicinal herbs.
"Eldest Senior Brother, everything is here." Situ Mingyue pointed to a package in front of her. "Prosperity threw the corpses over there, and then Prosperity went to search for heavenly materials and earthly treasures."
She thought Prosperity was the Tiger Demon's name, so she started calling him Prosperity.
Zhang Yang glanced at the items on the ground and instructed, "Go and gather heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Don't leave anything with any spiritual energy fluctuations behind; bring it all back. I'll stay here and keep watch. Report back to me if anything unexpected happens."
He found some tree branches, tied the clothes together, and stuck them in a conspicuous place on the mountain to indicate that someone was there.
Then, he crouched on another high vantage point, looking around warily.
Situ Mingyue obediently went to search for heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Half a day later, someone spotted the mountain and ran towards it.
Upon seeing the "flag" planted on the mountain, the man stopped in his tracks.
However, the mountain was quiet and seemed completely deserted.
So, that person slowly moved closer to the mountain.
Zhang Yang frowned. Are there really people who aren't afraid of death?
Without any hesitation, he aimed a shot at the person who had come at him.
"When--"
With a loud bang, the figure that had just approached the hill was sent flying.
However, after it flew out, it rolled a few times and got up again, coughing violently.
Just as Zhang Yang was about to fire a second shot, the guy nimbly hid behind a large tree and shouted, "Fellow Daoist, don't attack! I mean no harm!"
Zhang Yang didn't care whether there was any malice or not; he kept aiming at the edge of the tree, waiting for the guy to reveal himself.
"I am Qingxu of One-Guard Monastery, fellow Daoist?" Qingxu coughed a few times and continued, "What exactly did you use, fellow Daoist? You almost killed me... My carefully prepared armor was almost pierced by you. Your magic Law Treasure is truly extraordinary!"
Seeing that there was no response, Qingxu became very flustered.
He looked down at the dent in his chest and the bright yellow bullet, feeling shocked.
What is that so powerful?
After learning that he was going to enter the Prodigy Battlefield, he repeatedly tempered and fused various kinds of ordinary iron, and finally created this Law Treasure protective armor.
Unexpectedly, I've met my match.
"Fellow Daoist, since you won't allow me to get close, may I leave?" Qingxu asked in distress. "If you agree, please give me a signal, otherwise I dare not show myself, lest you kill me."
Zhang Yang was also muttering to himself, "It's actually someone from One-Guard Monastery."
Although he heard Qingxu's words, he didn't react at all. However, out of respect for Cang Song, he slightly reduced his murderous intent.
"Fellow Daoist, at least give me a signal! Are you going to let me go or not?" Qingxu was very distressed. "Or, how about we cooperate? I'm willing to be your pawn, just ask that you give me a way out. If you don't trust me, I can swear on my ancestors that I will not betray you."
Before Zhang Yang could answer, the Tiger Demon had already sneaked back, its mouth bulging as if it were holding something in its mouth.
Upon seeing Zhang Yang, the Tiger Demon grinned as if in a smile and spat out many fruit-like things... but he had already bitten them all!
Then, he pointed with his tiger claw at the fruits, indicating that Zhang Yang could eat them.
Zhang Yang looked at the fruit that looked like it had been chewed by a dog, his face twitched, and he said, "You can eat it, I won't fight you for it! Oh, don't eat it yet, there's someone hiding down there, go and bring him to me!"
