However, at this moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard from the nearby forest. Suddenly, three male Barbarian Ghost Sect disciples walked out. They were all around twenty years old. When they saw Liu Ming carrying the fish basket beside the pond, they were slightly startled.
Seeing this, Liu Ming's eyebrows creased slightly. However, he only nodded his head and continued to use the Soaring Sky Technique. A gray cloud condensed under his body.
At this moment, one of the three male disciples in the middle glanced at the bamboo pole that was stuck into the pond and the fish scales that the strange fish had left on the ground. His eyes immediately lit up and with a movement of his arm, a palm wearing a golden glove shot towards the empty space where Liu Ming was.
With a "pu" sound, a cloud of golden mist immediately shot towards Liu Ming.
Liu Ming was startled and without thinking, his legs moved. He immediately flew down from the gray cloud and steadily landed a few feet away.
As for the gray cloud that had just been condensed by the Soaring Sky Technique, after a muffled sound, it was dispersed by the golden cloud.
"Three Seniors, what is the meaning of this!" Liu Ming stared at the three disciples and his face darkened.
"Haha, this Junior does not need to be angry. I only want to ask if the Eagle Beak Fish here has already been caught by Junior. "The man in the middle was a twenty year old youth with fair skin. When he heard Liu Ming's question, he laughed and said.
The two youths next to him, who were around the same age, also looked at the fish basket behind Liu Ming. They did not hide their greed in the slightest.
"So what if it is, so what if it isn't!" Liu Ming also looked at the three people and said indifferently.
"Yes, then it's easy to say. Coincidentally, the three of us also received the mission to catch the Eagle Beak Fish alive. Now that we have arrived here, junior brother, you can't let the three of us come here for nothing, right? "The fair-skinned youth said with a yawn.
"Oh, then what do the three of you plan to do!" Liu Ming asked with a sigh.
This was the third time he had encountered such a situation ever since he took on the Contribution Point Mission alone.
However, the previous two times, he had only encountered one Barbarian Ghost Sect disciple who had been beaten black and blue. Now, three of them had appeared in front of him. This was slightly troublesome.
It was no wonder that most of the disciples in the Sect would work in groups when they accepted the Contribution Point Missions.
Through scanning with his mental power, he could roughly sense that the magic power ripples of the two people on his left and right were similar to his own, but the magic power ripples of the fair-skinned young man in the middle were obviously a notch higher than his own.
After four months of hard work, Liu Ming was about to master the second layer of the Dark Bone Method. This meant that the youth with white skin was most likely a Middle Spirit Apostle and was not as easy to deal with as the two people beside him.
Just as Liu Ming was secretly analyzing his opponent's strength, the fair-skinned youth had already replied with a sinister smile.
"It's very simple. The Sect's missions reward ten Contribution Points and thirty Spirit Stones. Junior Brother, why don't you compensate us with twenty spirit stones each? Or you can just give us this Eagle Beak Fish and I'll compensate you with twenty spirit stones. How about it? "
"Twenty spiritual stones? Looks like the three of you are planning on forcefully snatching it. Aren't you afraid of violating the sect's rules? "Liu Ming said expressionlessly.
"If Junior Brother feels like forcefully snatching it, then so be it. As for the sect's rules, haha, Junior Brother doesn't have to worry about them. On the surface, our Sect forbids disciples from fighting, but in reality, we encourage the disciples of each faction to follow the law of the jungle. As long as you don't directly fight in front of the Martial Uncles or the Law Enforcing Disciples, nothing will happen. Haha, looks like Junior Brother hasn't been in the sect for long and doesn't have a deep understanding of this. However, after today's matter, you should be taught a deep lesson. " The other disciple with a slightly bigger head immediately laughed and said with a slightly mocking tone.
"Alright, don't talk nonsense. Since Junior Brother isn't willing to take the initiative to hand over the Eagle Beak Fish, let's quickly make our move. If we're too late, it'll be troublesome if someone else comes. "The fair-skinned youth coldly said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he threw out two more flying knives with "hu, hu" sounds. Immediately, two balls of golden light flew towards Liu Ming.
The other two men also began to chant something in unison, then raised their hands to send a plume of white threads hurtling through the air.
"Spider Silk Technique."
Liu Ming squinted his eyes and immediately knew the origin of the white silk.
This technique, which could capture an enemy alive, could be said to be one of the most common techniques used by Barbarian Ghost Sect disciples when fighting against each other.
He took a deep breath and the Tiger's Bite Bracelet on his wrist suddenly lit up. Following this, his two calves suddenly thickened and the veins on the surface of his skin bulged. His entire body transformed into a green shadow and rushed out.
"Pa, pa." The two white silk turned into a net that was several feet long and fell on the spot where he was originally standing. The two balls of golden shadows also whizzed past and landed on empty space.
The fair-skinned youth's face immediately changed.
At this moment, a loud "peng" sound rang out.
One of the disciples who had just used the Spider Silk Technique knelt on the ground with a red face.
Liu Ming pulled out a fist that was covered in a faint black gas from the disciple's abdomen. With a backhand, he chopped at the disciple's neck, causing him to fall unconscious on the ground.
Using the Light Body Technique and the secret technique that increased his speed, Liu Ming actually approached the opponent in the blink of an eye and gave him two fierce blows.
"Junior Lu … stinking brat, I'm going to kill you!"
The bigger headed youth saw that his companion had been knocked down by Liu Ming in the blink of an eye and couldn't help but yell out in anger. He took out a black iron ruler from his waist and fiercely attacked Liu Ming through the air.
The iron ruler flashed with a yellow light and an invisible force immediately rolled towards Liu Ming.
However, Liu Ming twisted his body and dodged the invisible force. With a sway, he leaped in front of the big-headed youth.
The youth was shocked and wanted to withdraw his Practitioner Weapon to protect himself, but it was too late.
A fist that carried a trace of black gas fiercely hit the youth's lower abdomen, causing him to roll his eyes and directly lie on the ground, unable to move.
These two Barbarian Ghost Sect disciples were over twenty years old, but they were still at the Beginning Spirit Apostle level. It could be seen that their cultivation aptitude was poor.
Because the two saw that Liu Ming was young and knew that he was a new disciple, their hearts were full of contempt. Naturally, they were supported by the Light Body Technique and the secret technique that increased his speed. After a series of lightning fast movements, they were knocked down by Liu Ming.
"You … you are a Body Cultivator?" The fair-skinned youth saw the scene of his two companions being knocked down by Liu Ming in the blink of an eye. His face revealed an expression as if he had seen a ghost, and he cried out involuntarily.
"Body Cultivator, maybe." Liu Ming's heart moved when he heard this, but he slowly walked towards the opponent with an expressionless face.
"Hmph, even if you are a Body Cultivator, how long can you cultivate at this age?" The fair-skinned youth rolled his eyes and immediately returned to normal. However, the golden ring in his hand suddenly became blurry and transformed into a golden light shield in front of him. At the same time, his other hand continuously formed hand signs and his mouth began to chant.
In an instant, a wave of blue light shook and a half foot long crystal icicle quickly began to form in his hand.
Seeing this, Liu Ming's pupils slightly shrank. He suddenly exerted force under his feet and once again transformed into a green shadow that rushed forward.
Seeing this, the fair-skinned youth's face became ruthless. With a flick of his wrist, the icicle turned into a cold light and shot out.
With the power of the icicle technique and the strange cold that it carried, if Liu Ming was really hit by it, even if he didn't die, he would probably be seriously injured to the point that he couldn't move.
However, Liu Ming, who was pouncing at a high speed, only twisted his waist and his body suddenly swayed like a boneless snake.
The icicle immediately brushed past his shoulder.
At this moment, the fair-skinned youth's face revealed a trace of craftiness. He suddenly changed the hand sign in his hand and fiercely spat out the word "explode".
"Peng!" After the icicle flashed, it immediately turned into a ball of blue ice and exploded. A strange cold air rippled out.
Liu Ming was shocked and without thinking, he suddenly shook his wrist. A small, misty round shield appeared and with a flash, it blocked his shoulder.
However, this action was still a bit too late.
Liu Ming only felt a chill on his shoulder. After a moment of numbness, it was immediately covered by a layer of white frost. His originally pouncing figure unconsciously slowed down.
The fair-skinned youth's face revealed a trace of a proud smile. After changing the incantation, he raised one hand and spat out a thick white thread. With a blur, it transformed into a ten foot wide silk net that rushed toward Liu Ming.
The same "Spider Silk Technique" was used by the fair-skinned youth and the other two Barbarian Ghost Sect disciples, but the difference in power was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Liu Ming's footsteps suddenly stopped and he stopped in his original spot. He stared at the falling silk net and quickly and silently chanted a few times. His two hands raised and two fist-sized fireballs instantly shot out.
One flew toward the silk net while the other flew toward the fair-skinned youth who was a few feet away.
"Pu!" Before the silk net even landed, it turned into ashes in the rolling flames.
The youth on the other side was shocked and hurriedly poured his Fa Li into the light shield formed by his Practitioner Weapon.
Even if it was a normal fireball, if he was hit at such a close distance, he didn't dare guarantee that his Practitioner Weapon would be able to block it.
"Hong!" A loud sound rang out and the flames in front of the fair-skinned youth flew in all directions.
Dang! The light shield shook violently and let out a few cracking sounds. Immediately, a few thin cracks appeared on it.
Seeing this, the fair-skinned youth's heart slightly relaxed. Just as he was about to continue to attack Liu Ming, he suddenly felt his waist tighten. A black rope had unknowingly wrapped around his body.
"Soul Shackling Chain!"
Seeing the black rope, the fair-skinned youth turned pale with fright. He hurriedly tried to use the golden glove Practitioner Weapon in his hands to do something, but it was already too late.
The black rope was like a poisonous snake as it quickly coiled around his waist and suddenly tightened. It immediately caused a black gas to curl around the youth's waist and a wave of pain caused him to be unable to make any more movements.
On the other hand, Ming swaggered over and without saying anything, aimed at the back of the youth's neck and made him faint on the spot.
After letting out a light breath, Liu Ming used the Dark Bone Method and gathered the Fa Li in his body to his shoulder.
As a result, the frost on his shoulder quickly melted into water amidst the swirling black gas. In an instant, his shoulder returned to normal.
