I Can Share Others' Opportunities

Chapter 70: Chapter 67: Starting a Killing Spree, Eliminating Future Threats!

Liu Zimo’s gaze swept across the crowd, taking in everyone’s expressions. He was perfectly aware of the ulterior motives harbored by the twenty-odd people who had just crowded around Lou Yuchen to curry favor.

In this Post-Apocalypse, very few of these somewhat talented and capable individuals would willingly submit to others for long. Given the slightest opportunity, they would jump out and make a scene to assert their presence. This was exactly what was happening now.

The Demon Calamity had only just settled when another seemingly stronger Golden Body Realm Martial Artist rose up in Luozhou City. It was as if these people saw hope of overthrowing him, instantly becoming restless.

”Mr. Liu, these people behind me have been making provocative remarks, overtly and covertly speaking ill of you. They want to incite me to seize the opportunity to challenge you, take your place, and unify Luozhou!”

Although Lou Yuchen stopped speaking aloud, he secretly sent a voice transmission to Liu Zimo to explain the situation.

Previously, he hadn’t known that the ”Advisor Liu” these people mentioned was his savior, Liu Zimo. He had assumed that this so-called Advisor Liu from the Military Staff Department was truly as others described—an outsider dropped in from Shangjing with mediocre cultivation, no foundation, a terrible character, and deeply unpopular. This had actually stirred some ambitious thoughts in Lou Yuchen’s mind.

How could the local Martial Artists of Luozhou allow a rootless outsider with average strength to rule over them? Wasn’t that just absurd? But now, the moment he saw Liu Zimo, Lou Yuchen knew he had been tricked and used as a pawn!

Those bastards only told him that Advisor Liu was a domineering outsider from Shangjing who completely looked down on the local Martial Artists. They hadn’t truthfully informed him that this Advisor Liu’s Martial Arts Cultivation had long surpassed the Golden Body Realm and was far above his own!

This was a blatant attempt to use him to do their dirty work, making Lou Yuchen the sacrificial lamb! If he hadn’t already known Liu Zimo and his true strength, wouldn’t he have suffered a massive setback today, perhaps even leaving his life behind?

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Lou Yuchen’s eyes as he sent another transmission to Liu Zimo. ”Mr. Liu, do you want Yu Chen to take action and get rid of all these restless fools?”

Hearing this, Liu Zimo looked up at Lou Yuchen in surprise. He truly lived up to being the future Yu Chen Martial Saint! Having only struggled in the Post-Apocalypse for a dozen days, he had already developed such a decisive and ruthless disposition. No wonder he had managed to unify Luozhou in his previous life, subduing all the various factions in Luozhou City into total submission.

In contrast, Liu Zimo felt that his own previous approach toward these local factions had been too gentle and merciful. He had originally thought that since talent was rare, as long as he acted dominantly enough, he could completely subjugate these people for his own use. Now it seemed that giving them a chance to live was something they didn’t know how to cherish!

Did they really think Liu Zimo’s blade wasn’t sharp enough, or that he wouldn’t dare to go on a killing spree? Liu Zimo shook his head wordlessly. In the Post-Apocalypse, the thing he hated most was this kind of two-faced traitor who loved stabbing people in the back.

”Since you all have a death wish, then you can all die!”

With a single thought from Liu Zimo, a series of CLICK CLICK CLICK locking sounds echoed in his ears.

In just a few breaths of time, Liu Zimo bound all twenty-odd people, instantly filling the remaining slots to the maximum value of (50/50). Even if these people were going to die, they had to become his harvestable crops first. Otherwise, wouldn’t all their Martial Arts Cultivation and Divine Soul Power go to waste?

”Honestly, wouldn’t it have been nice to just obediently follow orders and live a good life? You just had to force me to harvest you!” Liu Zimo sighed inwardly. However, his physical actions showed no hesitation or mercy.

He slightly raised his right hand and gently waved it toward the twenty-odd people gathered together.

BANG!

BANG!

In an instant, a thumb-sized bloody hole appeared on everyone’s forehead. Blood mixed with white brain matter squirted out from the holes.

THUD! THUD!

Over thirty corpses, including several Iron Bone Realm Martial Artists like Sun Chenghu and Zhao Qian, simultaneously collapsed to the ground. They lost all signs of life before they could even let out a scream, dead beyond belief!

[Your Good Brother Sun Chenghu harbored malicious intentions toward you and severed the brotherhood. He was killed on the spot by your counterattack, his soul returning to the heavens!]

[The ’Heaven-Stealing’ Talent Attribute has been passively triggered. You have inherited half of your Good Brother Sun Chenghu’s dying legacy: Light Body Technique +50, Martial Arts Cultivation +10, Spiritual Power +3, Divine Soul Strength +5.]

[Your Good Brother Zhou You has logged offline. Current available binding slots: (18/50)]

Almost at the exact moment these people died, Liu Zimo’s Martial Dao aura and Divine Soul Aura surged to their extreme limits!

BOOM!

Even though Liu Zimo tried his hardest to control it, a portion of the aura still leaked out. The Martial Arts Domain and the Divine Soul Domain radiated outward simultaneously, instantly enveloping the entire Celestial Terrace.

THUD! THUD!

Everyone on the Celestial Terrace, including Lou Yuchen who had already advanced to the Golden Body Realm, uncontrollably fell to the ground under the combined suppression of these two different domains.

At this moment, let alone standing up, even trying to straighten their backs or lift their heads was incredibly difficult. The Martial Arts Domain suppressed their bodies, while the Divine Soul Domain intimidated their Divine Souls! From body to mind, they were all so utterly suppressed by the aura Liu Zimo unconsciously released that they couldn’t move an inch! Everyone was terrified to their core, feeling Liu Zimo’s powerful and invincible might so tangibly for the first time!

”It’s over! We’re dead!”

”Advisor Liu obviously wants to go on a killing spree!”

”Damn those brothers, Sun Chenghu and Sun Xiaoming! They wouldn’t listen and insisted on opposing Advisor Liu. Now look what they’ve done—forcing him to lay his hands on all of us!”

[...]

”Sure enough, I knew this was a trap!”

”When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden; when the cunning hares are dead, the hunting dogs are boiled! Now that the Demon Calamity is over, the man surnamed Liu truly couldn’t wait to eliminate dissidents and massacre us!”

”But how could he be this strong?”

”Just the aura radiating from his body has completely suppressed all of us. What the hell kind of Cultivation Realm is this?!”

[...]

Cai Jianghong, Lan Tianbao, Zhao Shijie, and the others also slumped among the crowd. Like everyone else, they were struck with terror, thinking that Liu Zimo was about to deal the killing blow to them. Because of the ’Heaven-Stealing’ Superpower, their current inner voices were unreservedly transmitted into Liu Zimo’s ears.

However, Liu Zimo was in no mood to pacify them right now. He needed to concentrate his entire mind on absorbing and Refining the massive boost in Martial Arts Cultivation and Spiritual Power brought by the thirty-two crops he had just harvested.

His Martial Arts Cultivation Realm had already been propelled to the peak of the Fetal Breath Realm by this total accumulation of over a hundred years of cultivation! His Divine Soul Cultivation bypassed the Spirit Communication Realm entirely, stepping straight into the higher-tiered Spirit Sea Realm!

The Soul-Devouring Spirit Insect, Yao Lingling, who had been imprisoned in his Sea of Consciousness this entire time, sensed the monumental, earth-shattering changes within the sea and frantically projected its thoughts as if it had seen a ghost:

”Good heavens! What is going on? Why has this Sea of Consciousness suddenly started expanding outward at such a rapid pace again?!

”What on earth did this human pervert do? How could his Spirit Cultivator realm and Sea of Consciousness Space achieve such a massive, rapid leap in such a short amount of time?!

”Aren’t Spirit Cultivators supposed to advance their cultivation slowly, bit by bit, almost in units of centuries? Which of the Illusion Demons in the Illusion Demon Realm doesn’t take decades or centuries to get a chance to evolve once? But why has this human Spirit Cultivator before me been able to explosively upgrade over thirty times in just a few short seconds?!

”Is there any damn justice left in this world?!

”Waaah! If things continue at this rate, won’t I lose any chance of ever escaping this Sea of Consciousness in my lifetime?! Aaah! This is so frustrating!

”Ancestor, do you see this?! If you don’t come soon, this human pervert is going to surpass the limits of your control! When that time comes, if even you can’t take root, cast a net, and manipulate the Spiritual Sense in his Sea of Consciousness, how will you ever save me?!”
