Cosmic Trading System

Chapter 425 Ambush and Counterkill

This was a sapphire-colored planet, mostly covered by oceans.

It seemed similar to Earth's environment.

However, this planet was much larger than Earth, with a diameter spanning hundreds of thousands of kilometers, roughly the size of the golden planet, K.

As he activated the detector, information began pouring in.

"Huh?"

Soon, Lin Yun looked slightly surprised.

The strongest being on this planet was not just a Level-5 Cultivator.

Lin Yun had predicted this beforehand.

After all, not everyone Star Blue had encountered could be the strongest being on this planet.

However, Lin Yun was surprised to detect more than just one Level-6 Cultivator; there were at least a hundred of them, some of them located near the position that Star Blue had transmitted, which astounded him.

The aura of these cultivators, especially that of the Level-6 cultivators around Star Blue, was extremely concealed.

If it weren't for Lin Yun's habit of purchasing higher-level detectors, he might not have detected these individuals.

Lin Yun's expression slightly changed.

Truth be told, this was his first time encountering other owners of the Cosmic Trading System in reality.

Although, according to the rules of the Cosmic Trading System, the Universal Trading System does not allow its owners to persecute each other, failing which, they immediately lose their System Owner status.

No information about such persecution was found on the major sections of the Cosmic Trading System.

However, Lin Yun always had a feeling that such information must have been suppressed. After all, among so many Cosmic Trading System owners, were there none who violated the rules?

Wealth incites human greed...

Stripping off the Cosmic Trading System owner's status indeed seemed to be a harsh punishment, but Lin Yun didn't know if any violations had a way around it...

"I hope that's not the case!"

Lin Yun took a deep breath.

Star Blue was the first Cosmic Trading System owner he had contacted, his first extraterrestrial friend, who had offered considerable help in his early days. Lin Yun really didn't wish him any harm.

...

Inside a dungeon...

A young man was locked on an iron frame, surrounded by ten Taoists in purple robes, their hands moving swiftly, casting sign after sign.

A month ago, these people had executed a mind-probing spell on him, his mind in a month-long chaos that he could barely withstand anymore.

Whoosh?

Suddenly, three figures appeared in the crowd.

"Brother Star Blue?"

A young man looking at this young man, called out.

"Lin... Brother Lin?"

The young man chained to the iron frame lifted his head to see the young man, first looking a little flustered, followed by joy and then shock, calling out in a hurry, "Run! There are many Level-6 Cultivators here, they've set up a Peak Array..."

This young man was none other than Star Blue.

During this time, he had realized something was off and had planned to send a message to Lin Yun, but his scrambled mind had not allowed it.

Seeing Star Blue speak so, Lin Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

He had a reliable lie detector on him, and coupled with his strong Mental Strength, he could tell that Star Blue was not lying.

This was to say, Star Blue was safe.

It was just that initially, Star Blue had not discovered his many powerful enemies.

"Your companion has finally arrived?"

A purple-robed Taoist opened his eyes and said with a faint smile.

"Do you not think it's too late to realize the peril and let your companion escape?"

As another purple-robed Taoist stood up, he also shook his head.

Soon, the ten purple-robed Taoists all stood up, quickly surrounding Lin Yun and the others.

"Buzz?"

Simultaneously, on the outside of the dungeon, ripples started to appear, brightness shooting all around.

"Is this... a Level-7 Peak Array?"

Hearing the Cosmic Trading System's prompt, Lin Yun voiced out in shock.

The Level-7 Peak Array... it was powerful enough to trap and kill a Level-7 Cultivator at their peak!

Even if an 8th-level cultivator fell into it, they would be trapped for quite some time.

He didn't expect these cultivators to have such formidable power.

"Moon One, attack!"

To prevent these people from having any follow-up strategies, Lin Yun immediately ordered.

Fortunately, not long ago, he had bought Moon One. Otherwise, encountering this situation suddenly and thinking about buying powerful robots might have been troublesome.

"Puff? Puff? Puff?"

In an instant, Moon One took action.

Some purple-robed Taoists had quickly retreated into the battle array, while some hadn't. And with a flash of the blade, the heads of those who hadn't started to fly up in the air.

They were mere Level-5 Cultivators, and in front of Moon One, who had the strength of a Level-9 Cultivator, they were just too weak.

"What!"

"Not good!"

"Activate the Array quickly!"

Seeing this scene, the purple-robed Taoists who retreated into the array changed their expressions drastically.

"Don't move, or I will kill him..."

Just as one of the purple-robed Taoists remembered something and was about to move towards Star Blue, his head was already flying high in the sky, and he could no longer utter the rest of his words.

"This person's strength likely reached that of a Level-8 Cultivator, immediately inform the Ancestor!"

"Don't panic, this formation reaches a Level-7 peak, even if a Level-8 cultivator enters, they would be trapped for a while, he won't dare to come in!"

Seeing that Moon One had killed another, the remaining purple-robed Taoists trembled again, speaking quickly.

"Brother Lin..."

On the other side, Star Blue, who had witnessed this scene, was dumbfounded.

He had never imagined that Lin Yun would have such a powerful company.

"Brother Star Blue, are you okay?"

By this time, Lin Yun and Cloud One had already teleported to Star Blue's side, asking with a slight smile.

"Clang! Clang!"

Cloud One made a move, and the iron cuffs were immediately cut in two.

Simultaneously, Lin Yun shoved a valuable pellet into Star Blue's mouth.

"I... I'm fine..." Star Blue felt his body rapidly recovering and couldn't help feeling a bit dazed.

Was he... just rescued by Lin Yun?

Whoosh?

At this moment, Moon One had already charged into the array.

He had the strength equivalent to Level-9 Cultivator and being a robot, he was unaffected by various limitations of the array, so the Level-7 Peak Array only trapped him momentarily before he reached one of them.

"Puff?"

A flash of the blade, and another head flew high into the sky.

"Not good!"

"The array can't trap him!"

At this point, out of the ten purple-robed Taoists, only four were left. They exclaimed in horror.

"Who dares to intrude into our Heavenly Bamboo Holy Land?"

"Daring to kill our strong Heavenly Bamboo beings... how bold!"

Luckily, at this time, the Level-6 Cultivators outside had noticed something was wrong and quickly came rushing.

With the participation of these Level-6 Cultivators, the array's power immediately surged several times.

One of the Level-6 Cultivators appeared beside Moon One, ready to attack him, but he was detected by Moon One who sent out a blade Qi, immediately sending the Cultivator's head flying.

A Level-6 Cultivator had fallen.
