One Wish to Own the World



"The good news is that they are most likely only at the intermediate phase and relied on those hidden formations to kill our fellow disciples."

The team leader encouraged his team, and everyone cheered up. If that was true, then with the help of a formation suppressor, they can easily wrap this battle up in a few minutes. 

"Anyone knows about formations?"

"Yes, Team Leader. I'm a fourth-rank formation master."

ƥαṇdαs ηθνε| One of the girls behind him answered and stepped forward.

"Grace, do you know how many fifth-rank formations can be inscribed in that cave?"

"Assuming they only have a fifth-rank formation master, I'd say they'd be able to inscribe 3 formations in that small area, a maximum of 5 if he is very talented."

"I see. In the best scenario, we have 10 minutes to get rid of them, worst scenario, we have 6 minutes. Can you estimate what happens if they use fourth-rank formations?"

The team leader was satisfied with this time limit. They could easily take down an intermediate fifth-stage cultivation in this time frame.

"Yes. The scroll will work for at least 150 minutes before the power runs off, and the number of formations can reach a maximum of 10 if they're talented."

"You're a fourth-rank formation master, how many can you draw in a cave of that size?"

"Maybe 6 or 7, depending on the specific formations."

"I see, let's get inside."

He activated the scroll and threw it inside the cave, and everyone stormed inside with their weapons in their hands.

A few minutes earlier:

"Henry says he feels a group of 20 people coming toward us, and 10 of them are at the fifth stage while the other 10 are at the fourth."

Miles reported with a grim voice. 

"I think they're onto us. It's already our last day here, so after we finish them, we can go back to the sect."

Ken replied with a calm voice despite understanding the situation. Benjamin already warned them it might happen, and it seems that the Four Seasons Sect sent troops to get rid of them.

"Young Master, shouldn't we run away?"

"They will catch us if we run. We will stay here and fight, don't worry."

Everyone in the room was moving nervously in their spots except for Ken and Henry who stood still and calm as always. 

"Guys, take those pills, those are antidotes."

Ken threw them a few shiny yellow pills and the 4 swallowed them immediately.

"Why do we need antidotes?"

"You'll see."

He took out 10 pills in his hand and covered them with his Qi to cover their powerful aura, preventing it from leaking out. If the others sensed it, they'd find out they were fifth-grade pills.

'Idiots. If I was out of cards to play, I'd be long gone by now.'

Ken said inwardly while waiting for the enemies to enter. He could sense their bloodlust now and he could see them observing the cave from outside.

'3… 2… 1…'

He threw the 10 pills to the entrance of the cave and white smoke started spreading around the spot the pills landed while a scroll flew at a rapid speed and landed at the center of the cave, halting the operation of all formations inside. 

The 10 Nascent Soul cultivators rushed first, and the first ones didn't hold their breath in time. The first 2 that rushed in took a deep breath of the poison into their lungs, and the poison took effect immediately, paralyzing their nervous system and making them unable to move.

The others held their breath in, but the poison still seeped through the pores of their skins, dulling their movements considerably. The more they stayed inside the cave, the more they will suffer from being inside the poison.

The team leader, as the one in possession of the suppression scroll, charged at the head, and their group lost one of their two strongest members. He fell down face first as he was immobilized and could only see vaguely his surroundings in despair.

'No! I can't die like that!'

Diana, quick-wittedly, shot 2 arrows at once as soon as she saw 2 enemies falling paralyzed, killing them instantly with a pierce to their brains. The team leader died in an anticlimactic manner without putting on any resistance.

"Team Leader!"

Some disciples shouted in anger when they saw their leader die the moment that he entered the cave. In their opinion, using poison to fight was underhanded.

"Guys, the formations are off, I'm not sure how long it will take for them to reactivate! Don't breathe in the poison!"

Ken's warning was meant mainly for the two girls, as they'd be in danger if they tried to fight fifth-stage cultivators without the formations' support. Although he gave his allies antidotes, they were only in the fourth grade, and they were only enough to block poison that entered by skin touch.

Everything happened almost simultaneously; Henry and Miles also launched their long-range attacks. Henry's palm descended from above, and Miles' fire slash closed in on another enemy.

However, the two were only at the low phase of their stages, and their enemies blocked the strikes with combined efforts.

"Team 1, take the front to defend, Team 2, go to the rear and use antidotes to recover."

The remaining high Nascent Soul cultivator from the Four Seasons Sect took command after his friend had fallen, and along with 4 intermediate Nascent Soul cultivators, he stepped forward to defend the three behind.

He already sensed that their enemies were only at the low phase, so he figured it'd be enough to let the small team of 3 recuperate from the poison first and let them handle the two enemies.

He also noticed two girls, but the two were in the fourth stage, and he wasn't worried about them even in his weakened mode.

*Clap*

A clap echoed in the cave as the bald monk closed his hands and two large palms formed and tried to squish one of the enemies.

"Help!"
