The five people in front of him were all independent cultivators. Because they were all going to the Southern Barbarian Lands, they formed a small team and entered the mountain. Even if they couldn't find the psychic compass, they could find some precious spiritual herbs in the mountain to help their cultivation. Then, they didn't need to come here. When they entered, they did find some sealwort and strange herbs along the way. They also encountered some dangers. With their many years of experience, they all turned the danger into safety.
As they walked further and further away, they accidentally bumped into Ying Kong and Bai Susi who were out looking for fruits and spiritual herbs. The five of them were overjoyed. After all, spiritual beasts had always been rare in the Cultivation World. If they could catch one, just the Spirit Stones alone would allow them to cultivate to an extremely high level, not to mention other things.
So, when they saw Bai Susu and Ying Kong, they immediately attacked. The five of them were all close to the late stage of Qi Refinement. In the middle stage of Qi Refinement, they were above average. Although Ying Kong and Bai Susu had obtained the secret method of Demon Cultivation these days, it was too short. They were about to break through the second level.
With the strength of their bodies, they might be able to kill one of them. But if there were more than two of them, it would be difficult for them to win. If Di Shitian didn't come at the critical moment, Ying Kong and Bai Susu would have been in big trouble today.
If Di Shitian didn't hear their unintentional words, he would have killed them on the spot.
"This …"
The five people who were forced to kneel on the ground by the overbearing pressure from Sakra's body couldn't help but change their expressions at the same time. From Sakra's question, they finally understood that this black tiger in front of them absolutely had a profound wisdom that wasn't inferior to anyone, and wasn't just a simple intelligence.
"No wonder, no wonder the Li family lost the psychic compass in the black tiger's hands." The five of them thought at the same time.
"Humph! Speak, or I will let you know what fear is. " Looking at the hesitant look on the five people's faces, Sakra's eyes were as cold as ever as he said, "This king has tens of thousands of snakes under his command. I don't know what it would be like to throw you into the snake crowd and taste the taste of being bitten by thousands of snakes."
When the five of them heard this, their faces immediately turned pale.
"This King has thousands of eagles. I wonder how it would feel to hang you on a cliff and let the eagles peck at your flesh day and night."
"Your Majesty, that's enough." When the young cultivator heard this, his eyes were filled with shock and his throat kept moving. If he really had to suffer the two punishments mentioned, he would probably suffer a fate worse than death. However, he clearly did not intend to agree so easily. He rolled his eyes and said with a firm gaze, "Your Majesty, I can tell you. However, Your Majesty must promise us that after we tell you everything we know, you must let us go."
"Hmm?"
Di Shitian's tiger-like eyes narrowed, becoming exceptionally oppressive. The purple Royal Mark on his forehead flickered with a purple light, as if it would jump out at any moment. Boundless might gushed out from the King Rune. The pressure exerted on the five people in front of him was not just external pressure, but also a kind of deterrence that was directly applied to their souls.
Under the deterrence of the purple Royal Mark, the five people in front of him lost their arrogance as cultivators. Their bodies trembled like a sieve, but the young cultivator still gritted his teeth and refused to speak.
It was no wonder. If one's life was not guaranteed, they would die either way. Why would they want to give others benefits before they died?
The five cultivators knew that this was a critical moment, whether they could save their lives or not. They held on with all their might.
This was because they knew in the cultivation world that even if monsters had intelligence, they did not know how to be flexible. If they agreed, they would agree. There were very few examples of them going back on their word. If they could get Di Shitian's promise, their lives would be saved.
At this critical moment, they stimulated the potential in their bodies. Under the waves of pressure from Di Shitian, they gritted their teeth and held on.
"Humph!" Di Shitian saw that. With his experience as a human, how could he not understand the inner thoughts of the five people in front of him? His tiger-like eyes narrowed, and he was silent for a moment. When the surrounding atmosphere became abnormally oppressive, he said, "Okay, as long as your answer satisfies me, this king can promise to let you leave here."
"Okay, I'll speak." When the young cultivator heard this, his uneasy heart finally settled down. He let out a sigh of relief and spilled out everything he knew. Of course, all of them were about the psychic compass, the Li family, and the rumors that were spreading outside and so on.
After listening to them, Di Shitian's heart could not help but tighten. He thought to himself, "So the compass obtained in the Tiger Hill Mountain Range is called the psychic compass. The compass can actually search for treasures. No wonder it can incite a large number of cultivators to come to the Southern Barbarian. And the rumor is actually borrowing power from the Li family. "
After listening, Di Shitian constantly connected these messy information. With his wisdom, he had faintly seen a lot of things from it. He even had a feeling that the mastermind behind this rumor was not only interested in the psychic compass, but also might have designs on him. Moreover, there were suddenly so many cultivators in the Southern Barbarian. There was no doubt that the situation of the entire mountain range would become chaotic.
"My king, I've told you everything I know. Now …" The young cultivator looked at Di Shitian with an expectant look in his eyes. The other four people were the same. The meaning was obvious. They wanted him to fulfill his promise.
"Humph, you can get out of here." Di Shitian snorted coldly. His voice was loud and rolling like thunder.
When the five cultivators heard this, they felt that the pressure around them dissipated in an instant. Without thinking, they quickly stood up and fled to the north at the fastest speed in their lives. He really ran faster than a rabbit.
However, the moment they turned around, they did not see the trace of indifference and ridicule in Di Shitian's eyes. After the five people left his sight, he looked at Su Ying and Ying Su.
He directly said to Ying Kong and Su Su, "You two go back to the Myriad Demon Valley immediately and inform Chihuo and the others not to leave the valley during this time. I will be back soon." As soon as he finished speaking, he had already appeared hundreds of meters away. The direction he was going was actually the direction that the five people had just left.
"Phew!! We finally survived. It's really too scary. That aura was so oppressive that I almost suffocated. " After escaping a mile or two, the five people stopped and gasped for breath. The old fisherman said worriedly. His eyes were full of the joy of surviving a disaster.
"Yeah, I almost peed my pants. Demon beasts are really scary. "The coquettish woman reached out and patted her towering chest. Her beautiful face turned pale.
However, just as she was about to speak, her two seductive eyes widened in an instant, revealing a look of horror and despair.
When the others saw this, they were puzzled and felt that something was wrong.
Unfortunately, their reaction was still too slow.
Beside them, five pitch-black crescent-shaped blades silently appeared. With a flash of the blades, five heads flew high at the same time, and bright red blood spurted out from their throats. After killing the enemies, the blades flew back in an instant.
"Humph, I only promised you that you would be safe in my sight. You actually dared to capture my subordinates and wanted to capture me as well. If I don't kill you, how can I appease the anger in my heart? " Not far away, a huge black tiger looked at the five headless corpses in front of him indifferently.
When he spoke earlier, he played a little trick. He only said that he would let them leave safely, but he did not say whether he would kill them after leaving. At that time, the five cultivators had been scared witless by Di Shitian. How could they have thought of this?
Di Shitian caught up with them and killed them silently with the Demon Mist Blade.
"Eh!!"
Just as Di Shitian was about to take the storage bags and other items that the five people carried with them, he could not help but be surprised. Why? It turned out that he suddenly noticed that the purple king pattern on his forehead suddenly changed.
On his forehead, the king pattern formed by purple stripes was like a flame. It was beating violently at a speed that had never been seen before, as if it was about to leave his body and emerge. Traces of a mysterious deterrent force were constantly being emitted from the King Rune. It had a soul-stirring aura.
The surrounding hundreds of meters were all covered under this strange deterrence. Heaven and earth were in a state of war. In this range, no matter what kind of creature, there was a kind of trembling from the soul, and they did not dare to move at all. It was as if the slightest movement would bring about a disaster. It made the surroundings become deathly silent.
"Swoosh!!"
At this moment, the purple flame in the king pattern violently jumped a few times, and a purple light burst out, sweeping toward the front in an overwhelming manner. In an instant, it covered the bodies of the five cultivators who had just died.
"This is …"
Di Shitian looked at the change in front of him with great surprise. Under the cover of the purple light, five extremely illusory figures emerged from the five dead bodies. The appearance of these five figures was exactly the same as when they died. The dead could not be resurrected, and they were killed by their own hands. He naturally understood that these five figures were definitely not living people. Since they were not living people, then it was quite clear what they were.
Souls!!
These were the souls of the five people after they died.
In the purple light, the five souls, one after another, showed a look of horror in their eyes, and they kept struggling. They wanted to break free from the purple light. At the same time, sharp screams came from their mouths.
"Demon tiger, you did not keep your word. You clearly promised to let us go, but you went back on your word. You will die a horrible death."
"What is this purple light? Let us go quickly."
The five of them kept shouting, and Di Shitian just looked at them coldly, quietly watching the situation unfold in front of him. The king pattern on his forehead was particularly different from the other tigers. He had known this for a long time, but he did not expect that the king pattern would have a special ability.
