Chapter 549 - Ling Tian Yu is Truly Cunning Like a Demon
"You punched me, and I wanted to see if I was dreaming... Ouch! That hurts!" With the sharp pain, the three Fire Abyss cultivators were finally convinced.
This wasn't a dream, nor an illusion!
They had truly killed three Sea Realm experts beyond their own level!
"Did we really kill three Sea Realm experts?"
"These three guys are so young. Are they really in the Sea Realm?"
"The powerful aura of their cultivation hasn't completely dissipated yet. They're at least at the late Sea Realm stage! Could they be fake?"
...
The three Fire Abyss cultivators checked several times before confirming.
They had indeed used a skinning knife to kill a Sea Realm expert at the late stage!
Although, normally, a single slap from a Sea Realm expert could kill ten of themselves.
"Do you think it's possible that we could counter-kill three Sea Realm experts? Maybe it was the strategy arranged by the tenth elder from the Prison Abyss that led to this! "
"It's possible. It seems that this strategy is extremely brainless, dispersing in a large charge, no different from sending themselves to death! Perhaps, in reality, it's a case of great wisdom masquerading as foolishness, using the dumbest approach to catch the enemy off guard!"
"Absolutely, I knew it! Ling Tian Yu, the youngest tenth elder from the Prison Abyss, is indeed as cunning as a demon, unparalleled in the world! If we had directly encountered these three Sea Realm experts, we would definitely be dead without a doubt!"
...
In the breath between their words, these three Fire Abyss cultivators deduced the so-called 'truth' and instantly believed it.
Almost simultaneously.
"There's a hint of smoke and fire there!"
"Damn it, if that spot is set up with traps, we're doomed!"
"What should we do, should we go check it out? But that spot is so dangerous!"
...
A group of cultivators from the Heavenly Origin Domain shivered as they stared at a spot emitting green smoke.
This spot was an extremely dangerous stronghold, situated at an elevated position. If traps were set up here, they could easily eliminate several times the number of enemies passing through.
Although terrified, this group of Heavenly Origin Domain cultivators still approached cautiously.
They quickly discovered a Sea Realm cultivator squatting there.
This Sea Realm cultivator was holding a skewer of meat, eating it while squatting.
"Ah!" Suddenly, a black dagger emerged from the shadow of this Sea Realm cultivator, directly stabbing through his heart from behind.
"I can get ambushed even while taking a dump?" This player spat out blood, holding the Deep Sea King skewer of meat, squeezing his buttocks, and died on the spot.
"Killed with a minor spell?" One of the Heavenly Origin Domain cultivators who had ambushed him couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"There's talking over there, let's go take a look!" Suddenly, voices came from not far away. These Heavenly Origin Domain cultivators stealthily moved over.
"Hahaha, hurry, these slices are so delicious! Bring another plate!"
"Exactly, damn, does that guy really need to take that much dump? He's not done yet?"
"Ah, it's so inconvenient without Heavenly Fire. Boiling takes too long!"
...
Three players were sitting around a hotpot, enjoying themselves immensely.
At this moment, one player absentmindedly picked up an empty plate and said out of habit.
"Stallion, get a plate of meat!"
"Got it, coming!" The other player replied and soon handed over a plate full of meat.
The player put the meat into the pot without thinking, and it was soon cooked. The three players happily devoured it.
But in just a few breaths.
"Splurt!" The three players all spewed black blood from their mouths.
"Poisoned? You bastards actually poisoned the meat? Stallion, I'll have to beat... Oh wait, who are you?" The player who had been poisoned was initially enraged, about to scold them. But upon turning around, he saw a cultivator from the Heavenly Origin Domain, and his face immediately showed bewilderment. He was then struck by a dagger and died.
The other two players hadn't even had a chance to react before they were poisoned and fell to the ground dead.
"Are these Sea Realm experts?" The Heavenly Origin Domain cultivator looked at the bodies on the ground, utterly baffled.
Though, in no way it could be interpreted, the four they killed were genuine Sea Realm experts!
Furthermore, they were all formidable ones, with deep and refined cultivation, akin to seniors who had been cultivating assiduously for hundreds of years!
But...
Why did these four seem so idiotic?
It felt like they hadn't killed four Sea Realm experts, but four complete idiots!
"I understand now! This must be the tenth elder from the Prison Abyss, using his cunning to the fullest, catching the enemy off guard during their mealtime and sending us to ambush them! That's why we caught them off guard!"
"Ah, so that's it, truly the tenth elder is amazing!"
"Wait, we're all at the half-step Sea Realm, didn't we break through earlier...?"
...
After a discussion among the Heavenly Origin Domain cultivators and some consultations with other wizards, they collectively affirmed!
This perfect victory was all thanks to the great wisdom of the tenth elder Ling Tian Yu!
Even though on the surface, the tenth elder Ling Tian Yu had arranged a seemingly idiotic strategy, and the enemy seemed as dumb as rocks!
However, the enemy's cultivation couldn't be faked!
Their victory was genuine as well!
This proved that there must be an inexplicable and extraordinary secret behind it all! Thus, the only truth was that the tenth elder Ling Tian Yu was playing the fool with great intelligence, setting up an invincible strategy, and the only reason they didn't understand it was because of their own stupidity.
Yes, that's it!
Meanwhile...
"You think, are these guys really asleep or faking it?"
"How would I know? They're all dead. Are you asking a ghost?"
"Judging by their appearances, they were planning to set up a large number of spiritual tools here, creating an ultra-powerful trap and wiping us all out when we walked in! But... why did they only set up half of the trap and then fall asleep?"
...
At this moment, a group of cultivators from the Ten Thousand Mountains Domain stared at the seven or eight corpses on the ground with puzzled expressions.
The Ten Thousand Mountains Domain cultivators were terrified as they came here, fearing the worst. But they heard snoring instead.
Rushing over, they found seven or eight enemies lying on the ground, all Sea Realm experts, sleeping like pigs.
The half-completed trap nearby had many spiritual tools strewn on the ground, indicating that the work was unfinished.
So, without a second thought, the Ten Thousand Mountains Domain cultivators killed the seven or eight slumbering Sea Realm experts.
The ease with which they killed these Sea Realm enemies was beyond what these Ten Thousand Mountains Domain cultivators had ever dreamed of.
Therefore, at this moment, these Ten Thousand Mountains Domain cultivators were doubting themselves.
However, these Ten Thousand Mountains Domain cultivators were unaware of one thing.
A moment later, inside a resurrection chamber on a Spirit-War Vehicle.
Seven or eight players were quar
reling.
"Damn, I thought you guys would be keeping watch!"
"Motherf***er, I also assumed you guys would be setting up traps!"
"I fully trusted that you could handle it, so I went offline to take a break! And now you... ah, you guys have truly disappointed me!"
...
These seven or eight players were all blaming each other and were extremely angry.
Damn it, I went offline to take a break, thinking you guys would do the work. But no, you guys went offline to goof off too. You guys are so shameless! Ugh!
The morning passed quickly.
Pig Brother Wolong and Ling Tian Yu, each standing in their respective command centers, simultaneously held meetings!
Both of them excitedly addressed their subordinates.
"How did the morning's battle go?"
"Not good, Brother Wolong. Our frontlines collapsed completely. Over four thousand players were killed, and the first defense line has fallen!"
...
"Great victory, Elder Ling Tian Yu! According to the reports, our vanguard achieved a complete victory this morning, killing over four thousand Sea Realm experts from the enemy side. We swept them aside!" An envoy from the Heavenly Origin Domain excitedly reported.
"Pfft!!!" Both Pig Brother Wolong and Ling Tian Yu immediately spurted blood!
Both of them trembled as they asked.
"Can you repeat that?"
