In mid-air, all the arrows were floating quietly, and some of the newly shot arrows would join them and stop their flight trajectory.
This scene really dumbfounded the soldiers. Even the new general no longer looked as arrogant as before, his face was full of horror.
Amidst everyone's incredible gazes, a figure slowly came into their sight.
This feeling is very strange, as if he has always been there, but has been ignored, and no one saw him until now.
The man was wearing black, white, green and gold clothes, with a coat and hat, so his appearance could not be seen clearly.
He was just suspended in mid-air, without any support under his feet.
Zhang Xiaoman looked at the group of people dressed in ancient costumes with a cold look in his eyes, feeling extremely angry in his heart.
He was originally dealing with the affairs of the Star Alliance on Aquamarine. The testing of the Corona Armor has reached a critical stage. As long as this final test is completed, he can officially put it into use.
Of course, this series of plans was also communicated with the Abnormal Ministry. The Star Alliance also donated two precious battle armors and dozens of suits to the other party to jointly study the technological secrets of advanced civilizations.
As the star master of the Star Alliance, Zhang Xiaoman naturally participated in the whole process of formulating the plan. After all, this plan is of great importance. On a larger scale, it can even affect the scientific and technological progress of the entire human civilization.
However, while he was busy, news from Ye Cang came from Longmian Mountain.
Mr. Liu is missing.
Previously, Mr. Liu had been practicing sword control skills in seclusion in his room. However, one day when his disciple went to deliver food, he was not found.
Originally, this situation was considered normal. After all, practicing sword control techniques inevitably involves going out to test sword flying.
But Mr. Liu has been missing for nearly a week. He has not been seen again and again, which naturally arouses everyone's suspicion.
A disciple went into the house to investigate, and found that a layer of dust had accumulated in the house. It looked like it was inhabited every day.
The disciple asked the people around him again, and found out that no one had seen Master Liu recently, so he realized that something might have happened.
He quickly found Ye Cang, and Ye Cang contacted Zhang Xiaoman again, and that's what happened next.
Zhang Xiaoman was also shocked at first. Master Liu is missing? Or did he disappear while studying sword-controlling skills in seclusion?
The first thought that came to his mind was that Mr. Liu made a mistake while flying with his sword and fell from the sky. He did not know whether he would live or die.
But when he used infinite teleportation to sense the other party, he found that Liu Ye was still alive and there was nothing serious.
The perception of infinite teleportation is relatively vague. Zhang Xiaoman can only barely sense the environment around the other party, which should be among a group of buildings.
There seemed to be a lot of people gathered nearby. Judging from the postures of the two sides, they seemed to be in a confrontation.
Without any hesitation, he immediately activated the infinite teleportation and headed to Liu Ye's location.
But what he saw next made him furious.
I saw not far in front of me, hundreds of soldiers in armor drew their crossbows at the house where Mr. Liu was, and huge crossbow arrows were aimed at them and shot at them.
Raising his hand, the dark energy vibrates and activates.
All the crossbow arrows were wrapped in invisible force and gathered in mid-air, making it difficult to move forward.
Zhang Xiaoman's current level of dark energy control is increasing day by day, and it is still possible for him to control nearly a hundred arrows.
He didn't know what was going on now and why those people were attacking Mr. Liu.
But since he has taken action against Master Liu, it is naturally impossible for him to remain indifferent.
Forced to resist the urge to shoot these arrows back, Zhang Xiaoman clenched his fists in the air, gathered them all together, and kneaded them into a ball.
Although he is angry now, he has not lost his mind.
After all, there are hundreds of lives here, and he will not kill people rashly until he knows what is right and wrong.
However, punishment is still indispensable.
In the frightened eyes of those soldiers, a huge pressure came from above their heads, instantly suppressing more than a hundred people to the ground, unable to move.
"ah!!!"
Some people roared unwillingly, but no matter how hard they struggled, they could not move.
"Come on, please forgive me..."
Some people also begged. The methods shown by the other person were completely beyond their understanding. In their eyes, he was no different from a real god.
Inside the house, Pei Laoliu and the others also saw what happened outside.
Except for the old man, everyone including Yan Jiantong showed shocked expressions.
"Xiaoman!"
Mr. Liu was the first to run out. Where is there an officer or soldier standing outside at this moment? Everyone was crushed to the ground by Zhang Xiaoman's dark energy shock, unable to move.
"Sixth Master? What's going on?"
Zhang Xiaoman sat down and took a closer look at Liu Ye's body while speaking. He was relieved when he saw that he was not in serious condition.
"Hey, I encountered a little accident. I was about to use my sword control skills to turn the tide with my Sky-Splitting God Sword. You came here..."
As he spoke, he waved the Shanhe Sword in his hand, making a gesture of preparing to wield the sword.
Li Qiang and Yan Jiantong, who ran out behind, were a little dumbfounded. They clearly remembered that the sword was not named by this name when Mr. Liu introduced it last time. Why is it changed to another one now?
Zhang Xiaoman naturally knew the temperament of his old man, so he did not expose him, but asked in detail the whole story.
After a while, as Liu Ye narrated, he naturally understood the cause and effect of the whole thing.
"So, this group of people not only killed you, but also massacred an entire village?"
When he said these words, Zhang Xiaoman's face was as cold as frost, and a powerful aura spread unconsciously, and even Yan Jiantong, an extremely expert, couldn't help but tremble.
"This person... is so scary..."
An idea appeared in his mind, filling him with horror.
Is this a cultivator?
It only takes one look to make it difficult for him to move.
Such strength is simply terrifying.
Of course he didn't know that this was caused by the pressure from the life level of the extraordinary and the oppression of Zhang Xiaoman's huge mental power.
"Since they are a group of scum who kill innocent people..."
Zhang Xiaoman said, glanced at Li Qiang and Li Mu standing aside, and suddenly asked:
"Are you two the survivors of Dongyuan Village? What do you think, do you want a chance to kill your enemy with your own hands?"
The two people were stunned for a moment, and then they suddenly came to their senses and nodded their heads as hard as they could.
They had already guessed what the other party wanted to do, and their eyes unconsciously glanced at the soldiers lying on the ground unable to move, with expressions of hatred on their faces.
"Well, this opportunity will be given to you, go ahead..."
Zhang Xiaoman nodded, and then gently pressed his hand, and all the soldiers over there spurted out a mouthful of blood, and they suddenly fell into depression.
"Xiao Man... Is this really okay? Let them have two children...?"
Liu Ye was a little hesitant at this time.
After all, the battle was over, and his mentality gradually recovered from the killing. At this moment, it was still a bit unbearable for him to see two teenagers killing a group of immobile officers and soldiers.
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head.
"I have let go of the suppression on them and severely injured them. This is retribution for their attack on you. As for whether to kill them or not, this is the choice of the two boys. We do not want to interfere."
That's what he said, but when he looked at the group of people, his eyes were full of coldness.
These people were all murderers who massacred the village. They were not innocent people. In his opinion, they had already deserved to die.
Zhang Xiaoman's mental power has now reached 40 points. For ordinary people, the gap between the two sides is huge.
Conversing at such a close distance, he could clearly sense the emotions of the two people as they spoke.
There wasn't a trace of lies mixed in, and the hatred was unforgettable.
I saw two teenagers walking into the soldiers, each picked up a long gun from the ground, and walked towards one of them with trembling hands.
The soldier saw them approaching and tried to fight back, but his body was severely injured and he could not move. He could only watch as the tip of the spear got closer and closer to his chest.
"Please, please... don't..."
The soldier struggled to squeeze out a few words, begging the other party to let him go.
Behind the spear, Li Qiang's movements slowed down. In any case, he was just a young man who had never killed anyone.
Seeing the hesitation on his face, the soldier felt the hope of survival and continued:
"I, I know I was wrong... I still have an elderly mother at home... and a child... I, I can't die..."
However, it was better that he didn't say this. As soon as he said it, Li Qiang's expression immediately changed.
He suddenly thought of what Yan Jiantong had said to the big men at the tea stall outside Hanyue City three days ago, but all he got in return was ridicule.
Later, when those big men were facing death, they said the same words again, but it was difficult to be forgiven.
He couldn't help but think of his mother.
Did mother say something similar when these people were slaughtering the village? Are the dead villagers also crying and begging to be bypassed?
But they still haven't even let go of a dog!
Then why should I pity the other person now?
Li Qiang's eyes were gradually replaced by madness.
When the soldier saw his expression, his heart suddenly thumped.
Before he could speak, the sharp spear pierced his heart, and he felt a sharp pain and suffocation. He couldn't even speak, and the world in front of him began to blur.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiaoman turned around and walked back to the house.
"Let's go, leave this place to them..."
…
A long time passed, and the sun in the sky gradually began to tilt. The orange color was like the lights at the end of the stage, and stars scattered on the land.
In the room, Zhang Xiaoman had a preliminary understanding of the world after listening to Pei Laoliu's story.
Ancient times, feudal society, rich materials...
The most important thing is that there is a legacy of immortal cultivators here.
"The Immortal Cultivator..."
He muttered softly, and then looked at the big black and white little fox beside him.
Zhang Xiaoman clearly remembered that he did not awaken Dahei, but only gave him an osmanthus pill.
But now, he could sense a faint fluctuation of dark energy from this guy's body.
Although it is not strong, it is still there.
Dark energy is something that ordinary people cannot perceive at all.
If you want to practice, you must first be able to sense it.
And the Spiritual Enlightenment Formation he mastered is the key to opening the door to this new world.
But some very strange things happened recently, which made him a little confused.
My own blue cat Xiaohua, after playing with Jiujiu for a while, began to become more and more humane, as if he would become like Jinbao at any time and awaken the real dark energy.
The same goes for some of the animals on the island, the big rabbit, the second rabbit, the third rabbit, and the little red...
Now that he learned that Dahei had taken the first step and possessed dark energy, he was not so surprised or surprised.
The same goes for the little fox in front of me, and even the big black snake that Liu Ye mentioned before. These are all animals that have awakened dark energy.
Autonomous awakening...
A word suddenly appeared in his mind.
Zhang Xiaoman remembered that when he was bragging, he said that the dark energy talent in this world had been cut off for three hundred years. This should have been realized by the gang establishment order.
But what about three hundred years from now?
That is now.
Can the autonomous awakening of those animals be understood as indicating that their dark energy talents have been restored in this era?
This still needs to be investigated.
For now, Zhang Xiaoman has not heard of any examples of humans becoming extraordinary beings. The restoration of the talent of dark energy seems to be only reflected in animals.
But just because he hadn't heard about it didn't mean it didn't exist. He decided to ask Su Changqing to contact the Foreign Ministry and tell them about it after he returned.
With the power of the Abnormality Department, it is very easy to do some statistics.
As for Master Liu being unable to use the hearthstone to go back, he actually didn't know what was going on.
Zhang Xiaoman tried it, but if he used Hearthstone, he would not be able to go back.
Even the teleportation technique has been restricted, as if the world is wrapped in an invisible barrier. You can only enter, but not exit.
However, his infinite teleportation is not affected by this.
As an ultimate skill, in addition to quickly teleporting to gang members, it can also ignore all spatial suppression and forcefully drag them away.
Therefore, before he figures out the situation, Master Liu may not be able to go back for the time being, but he can come in and out at will.
Considering Master Liu's safety, Zhang Xiaomandang produced a lot of spirit possession scrolls and brought some supplies to him to prevent accidents.
Of course, he would naturally look for the map in Master Liu's hand.
If he guessed correctly, the secret of the immortal cultivator might really be hidden in that map.
