"Trap!" Cleo Harris had already taken out a talisman, which was the one he used to deal with Peter Brown.
As the talisman was activated, Peter immediately felt like he was in an endless desert. No matter where he ran, the desert seemed boundless.
After running for a while, Peter simply stopped.
At that moment, he heard Cleo Harris’s laughter echoing through the air.
"Peter Brown, this is my talisman. Impressive, isn’t it? It’s a Trapping Array Talisman that creates an infinite desert. No matter how strong your cultivation is, you’re still trapped here."
Trapping Array Talisman!
It was Peter’s first encounter with such a talisman, and he had to admit that it was incredibly powerful.
As Peter was pondering his situation, a zombie burst out of the sand and lunged at him.
Peter defeated the zombie with a single Fire talisman.
When he turned to look at the fallen creature, he saw the desert sands shifting and the zombie disappeared.
"It’s useless to struggle. No matter how many talismans you have, they won’t help you. I’ll slowly drain your True Qi, and then my three beauties will take it from you. I didn’t expect to meet someone at the Qi Refining Eighth Level," Cleo Harris taunted.
Zombies and spirits continued to attack Peter, causing him to exhaust many Fire talismans.
The more he fought, the more Peter realized that this wouldn’t work. As Cleo Harris had said, his stock of talismans would run out. Furthermore, he didn’t know how many spirits Cleo Harris had at his disposal for sneak attacks.
Upon this realization, Peter remembered that talismans required a continuous supply of energy. Cleo Harris had activated the talisman and the environment had yet to return to normal. This meant the talisman was still being supplied with spiritual energy. What if Peter disrupted that supply?
Peter was a decisive person. As he guarded against spirit ambushes, he set up some formation disks and formation eyes that he had previously refined on the desert floor.
What Peter had set up was the Spiritual Gathering Array, which he usually used for his own cultivation.
This modified array could absorb a great amount of spiritual energy from the outside world.
After setting up the Spiritual Gathering Array, Peter even added a Liu Yao Array on the outside.
With a flash, Peter entered the Spiritual Gathering Array and began sitting cross-legged and cultivating.
Cleo Harris stood outside, watching Peter inside the array. At first, he was not concerned about defeating Peter and even appeared relaxed. However, when Peter set up his own array, Cleo Harris became anxious and puzzled.
The talisman was a precious treasure that Cleo Harris had managed to obtain after a great effort. This time, he had used his True Qi as energy for the talisman, continuously pouring it in and even using some of the elixirs he had obtained.
However, when Peter’s Spiritual Gathering Array appeared, Cleo Harris was shocked to find that his True Qi was rapidly flowing into the talisman, which was then being drawn toward the Spiritual Gathering Array.
Seeing this situation, Cleo Harris ordered his four Soul People to attack Peter.
The absorption power of the Spiritual Gathering Array was too strong, and large amounts of energy were being drawn in. There was not enough spiritual energy from the external world to replenish the talisman, causing it to gradually lose its power.
However, no matter how the four Soul People attacked, they were unable to break the Liu Yao Array.
Cleo Harris hadn’t expected Peter to be so formidable with his powerful array setup.
Cleo Harris was now in a predicament. To recall the talisman, the energy had to be completely depleted. With the continuous influx of his own True Qi and the Spiritual Gathering Array being so strong, he couldn’t sever the connection.
In desperation, Cleo Harris had the four Soul People support him by injecting their own True Qi into his back.
Meanwhile, Peter didn’t care about the situation outside. As the Spiritual Gathering Array unfolded, he discovered that the spiritual energy inside was incredibly dense. A steady stream of spiritual energy entered the array and continuously flowed into Peter’s body.
His True Qi was rapidly increasing. In a short period of time, Peter felt his True Qi had been enhanced.
He had just stabilized at the Qi Refining Eighth Level Initial Stage. With the influx of new True Qi, Peter realized he had reached a firm Qi Refining Eighth Level Middle Stage and was still advancing.
Qi Refining Eighth Level Middle Stage!
Peter was surprised to find that within a short period, his cultivation level had increased, something that would normally require consuming many elixirs.
Just as Peter had reached this new stage, he felt the environment created by the talisman suddenly collapse. He opened his eyes to find himself still seated in the cave.
Glancing at the opposite side, Peter saw Cleo Harris collapsed on the ground, glaring at him with fear in his eyes.
Looking at the four Soul People, Peter found that they had lost their breath and died, leaving corpses everywhere.
Upon seeing this, Peter quickly understood the situation. He collected his array setup and laughed: "Cleo Harris, do you have anything else to say?"
At this moment, Cleo Harris’s True Qi had been completely drained. The talisman required a considerable amount of True Qi, and he was relying on elixirs for support, intending to trap Peter who had an unexpected Spiritual Gathering Array. Especially due to Peter’s potent Spiritual Gathering Array, the talisman kept siphoning True Qi, leaving Cleo Harris weak and drained.
With a terrified expression, Cleo Harris knew that he had bitten off more than he could chew this time.
"Spare me!" Cleo Harris begged for mercy.
Snorting, Peter thought of the numerous souls that had attacked him and knew that Cleo Harris had killed far too many people. Killing Cleo Harris was the only way to vent his resentment.
Walking over, Peter first struck Cleo Harris’s acupoints, then placed his hand on Cleo Harris’s head.
This little guy knew a lot, so Peter didn’t mind searching his soul before killing him.
After a while, an astonished look appeared on Peter’s face.
It turned out that this place was the burial ground of a cultivator!
From Cleo Harris’s memories, Peter discovered that the Soul Refinement Sect knew far more than he realized. This area had many hidden secrets and unique treasures.
He killed the now-brainless Cleo Harris with a single finger tap.
