"Aim at that person and shoot him down for me!" In the camp, a man who seemed like the leader looked up at Ye Tianfan in the sky, his eyes filled with wrath, and shouted.
As the leader-like man's command fell, the people in the camp holding bows, and those with crossbows, gave a loud shout, pulling the bowstrings with their right hands fiercely, then suddenly releasing. Instantly, the poison-coated arrows and crossbows shot out, the sharp sound of them piercing through the air echoed through the silent sky.
"These damn cultivators, do they really think we ordinary people have no way to deal with them?" The leader-like man looked with a cold gaze at Ye Tianfan, who was enveloped in the attack range of arrows in the sky, speaking with boundless fury.
This leader had taken down a cultivator using this method before, and the reason he so hated cultivators was because they had once accidentally injured his family, leaving him as the sole survivor.
The surviving leader then established a minor sect, the Immortal Slaying Sect, specifically to slaughter cultivators, and those under his command were ordinary people who also had enmity with cultivators but lacked the strength to seek revenge.
The pain they experienced, they vowed to return double to the cultivators. Though they had been established for more than a decade, they had only managed to kill one cultivator, and it was a fourth-level cultivator who had just learned to fly, accidentally wandered into the Ancient Wilderness here, got lost, and was shot dead by the Immortal Slaying Sect in a state of hunger and cold.
Originally, because they couldn't find target individuals, the Immortal Slaying Sect almost turned into the Immortal Slaying Chamber of Commerce, but this shot brought them back to their original dream.
They actually didn't know there were strengths and weaknesses among cultivators; they thought all cultivators were the same. Since they successfully shot down one cultivator together, they believed that as long as they worked together, they could gradually bring all cultivators in the world down under their poison arrows.
It was precisely this blind arrogance that made them target Ye Tianfan.
The Black Gold Crow had coincidentally passed by, sniffing that there was the scent of one of its kind on Ye Tianfan. It knew one of its kind was either eaten by Ye Tianfan or made into a magical treasure by him. However, the Black Gold Crow smelled that the scent on Ye Tianfan wasn't very strong, and casually assumed Ye Tianfan had eaten its kind.
So the Black Gold Crow just wanted to curse Ye Tianfan a few times and then quickly leave, after all, it figured if its kind had died at the hands of Ye Tianfan, then Ye Tianfan certainly had the power to kill it.
Unexpectedly, the Black Gold Crow's call caught the attention of the people in the camp below, which led to the subsequent events.
The leader stared at the sky with a bloodthirsty gaze, as if he was envisioning the scene of Ye Tianfan begging for mercy after being shot down. A sinister smile curled at the corner of his mouth. When you beg for mercy later, I'll give you a glimmer of hope, then break each of your bones one by one, and then hang you out in the plaza to dry, no matter who you are, in the face of such a barrage of poison arrows, there is only one outcome, and that is to be shot down on the spot.
However, things didn't go as the leader imagined. Under the gaze of hundreds in the camp, just as the poison arrows were about to hit him, a yellow transparent tower suddenly appeared around Ye Tianfan. The poison arrows shot directly at the tower, producing "Dang Dang!" sounds, and then slowly started to fall to the ground, falling faster and faster.
Since the arrowheads were heavier than the shafts, as the arrows fell, the arrowheads faced downward.
Having just fired a round, the archers and crossbowmen were watching their results, only to find that the poison arrows they shot were blocked by the inexplicable golden transparent tower and started falling back down, right over their heads.
"Damn it! Dodge quickly!"
The leader was first stunned when he saw this, then realized the poison arrows they had shot were now coming back at them. The leader hurriedly shouted for everyone to dodge.
And then the poison arrows rained down, pattering like rain.
However, since the leader had reacted quickly, everyone found cover to dodge. Yet there were still a few unlucky fellows who couldn't dodge in time and were shot dead by the poison arrows.
Once the rain of arrows ended, the leader came out from his cover, coldly looking at a few unlucky fellows who had been shot dead.
"Shoot again, don't use bows, use crossbow arrows! I refuse to believe that the powerful crossbow arrows can't penetrate that strange barrier." The leader shouted at the sky-bound Ye Tianfan with burning anger.
Likewise, everyone was holding their breath, and upon hearing these words, they quickly got into action, setting up crossbows, pulling the strings tight, aiming at Ye Tianfan in the sky.
Ye Tianfan watched this scene, a bit puzzled too. What is going on? Ordinary people provoking a cultivator is one thing, but he didn't expect so many people to provoke together this time. Do they really not fear severe punishment from him?
Even for righteous path disciples, if ordinary people keep provoking, they will be punished.
Of course, when it comes to demon path disciples, they simply kill on the spot.
"Release!"
The leader, upon seeing everyone had set up their crossbows, waved his hand and shouted "Release!"
Hearing this, everyone released the crossbow strings with a flick of their grips.
Dozens of crossbow arrows were shot upwards towards the sky, headed towards Ye Tianfan.
Looking at the dozens of crossbow arrows being shot at him, Ye Tianfan remained motionless; he wanted to see how much these people had drunk to dare challenge a cultivator so recklessly.
As expected, those crossbow arrows filled with everyone's hope in the camp were deflected, and they too began to fall slowly.
"Damn it! Dodge again!"
The leader was again momentarily stunned seeing the crossbow arrows were ineffective, then realized that now, just like before, the crossbow arrows were falling back towards them. The leader shouted hurriedly for everyone to dodge again, everyone reacted promptly, even if they couldn't believe it internally, they began to dodge nonetheless, as life was most important, keeping their lives meant they could continue to slay immortals.
Then crossbow arrows rained down, pattering like rain.
Even though the leader had reacted early, finding respective cover to dodge, crossbow arrows were much heavier than regular arrows, with penetration power several times greater.
So despite everyone finding cover, many were still shot dead because their covers weren't sturdy enough to withstand the crossbow arrows' penetration.
As the rain of crossbow arrows ended, the leader came out from cover, even he was pierced through his arm by a crossbow arrow which had penetrated the cover.
