I have a city in another world

Chapter 6774 Soul Extraction and Bait

That blood-red shadow was as fast as lightning; in the blink of an eye, it had already fled a great distance.

But at the same time, a raging fire followed closely behind, relentlessly pursuing it like a fire dragon hunting its prey.

In a split second, the two touched each other.

The blood shadow was like boiling water, instantly burning and boiling, accompanied by a shrill scream.

The cultivators who attempted to assassinate Tang Zhen thought they could escape smoothly, but little did they know that the roles between the two sides had already reversed the moment the operation failed.

Tang Zhen was the hunter, while he was the prey fleeing for his life.

The attacker, once caught in the attack, transformed into a raging fireball, and then into a mangled figure.

"Don't kill me. I'm willing to pay a ransom in exchange for my freedom and safety."

The mutilated figure screamed, his voice filled with deep pain, begging Tang Zhen to spare his life.

It wasn't that he didn't want to struggle, but rather that his proud methods had been countered by Tang Zhen, and his escape methods had been restrained.

At this point, there is almost no better way than to show weakness and beg for mercy.

You can choose to fight to the death, but the chances of winning are extremely slim, and it's almost certain death.

Knowing this, choosing to fight Tang Zhen to the death was undoubtedly a foolish choice.

Tang Zhen's gaze was icy as he appeared not far away, watching the struggling and screaming attacker.

"Who instructed you?"

There's no need to waste words with a guy like that; if he wants to live, he'll tell you everything he knows.

If he pretends to be stupid, there are ways to deal with him.

"It was a wizard from the Sunset School who issued the assassination mission and provided information about you."

The figure in the sea of ​​fire struggled to answer Tang Zhen, enduring excruciating pain.

Judging from his current state, he probably wouldn't be deliberately deceiving me.

However, Tang Zhen knew that such a guy could not be trusted easily; he was more adept at setting traps and scheming, and his words were full of hidden schemes.

The slightest carelessness could lead to being outmaneuvered by the other party.

To avoid this situation, the best method is to extract the soul and refine the spirit, interrogating the person from time to time.

If any problems arise, they will be severely punished, and those who engage in deception will pay the price.

Tang Zhen had mastered more than one such method, but compared to the others, the methods of the cultivators in the tower city were still more reliable.

Having made up his mind, Tang Zhen immediately began refining it.

The battered figure within the fireball suddenly felt uneasy and struggled desperately to break free.

At the same time, he kept issuing warnings and curses, telling Tang Zhen not to cause trouble for himself.

If anything happens to him, the forces behind him will not let it go and will definitely launch a retaliatory action against Tang Zhen.

When that time comes, Tang Zhen will pay a heavy price.

The attacker's current state is enough to prove that he has lost his composure and knows clearly what is about to happen to him.

Compared to death, the most painful things are the endless, dark imprisonment and the seemingly endless torture.

This feeling of having one's life and death controlled by others, with no freedom whatsoever, can drive a cultivator to the brink of collapse.

But at this moment, everything was beyond their control, and the attacker could only desperately feel their soul being ripped away.

However, at a certain moment, the attacker suddenly cried out in surprise.

"Something's not right. You're not a wizard at all. Who are you?"

Tang Zhen initially didn't want to pay attention to the other person, but at this moment he became interested and wanted to know how the other person recognized him.

The attacker did not answer Tang Zhen's question, but remained silent.

When the attackers discovered that Tang Zhen was not a wizard, they suddenly realized that things were becoming increasingly complicated.

The attacker was well aware of the wizard's methods and would do everything he could to save his own life.

However, facing a cultivator of unknown origin, his usual tricks and methods were completely useless, and he had no idea what he would encounter in the future. Death was indeed terrifying, making the attacker feel fearful and resistant, but what he feared most was to suffer a fate worse than death.

Faced with the silent attacker, Tang Zhen did not press him for answers. There was no need to rush; he would find a way to get him to talk in the future.

The more silent you are now, the more miserable you will be when you cry later.

In a short time, the mangled figure in the fireball disappeared, leaving only a pile of charred remains.

Among the pile of charred remains were many items, all weapons and equipment of the attackers.

One of the items, which looked like animal scales, caught Tang Zhen's attention.

Tang Zhen sensed the aura of rules emanating from this item, which was quite rare.

After careful analysis, Tang Zhen was able to determine that this item was a fragment of a divine artifact.

No wonder this attacker was so well hidden that even Tang Zhen didn't notice him.

Using the rule-breaking artifact, Tang Zhen discovered the anomaly and circled around behind the opponent to retaliate.

It turns out this guy possessed a fragment of a divine artifact, which gave him such a powerful method of concealment.

This is a good thing; Tang Zhen will definitely take it and take some time to study it.

Having subdued the attackers and obtained a fragment of a divine artifact, this battle was indeed very fruitful.

If future enemies can bring such benefits, Tang Zhen wouldn't mind making the journey even more exciting.

Although it involves taking risks, it also brings tangible benefits; this is the true meaning of "fortune favors the bold."

However, those enemies aren't fools either. Once they know Tang Zhen's true strength, they'll definitely avoid him like the plague.

Trying to lure the enemy in and then get rich by turning the tables is not a very clever plan.

In the time that follows, the main task will still be to investigate matters related to the teleportation token and find out the true identity of the deity behind it.

While we're at it, we'll complete the platform's tasks, teach those fools a lesson, and make them pay for their actions.

After cleaning up the battlefield and erasing all traces, Tang Zhen continued towards the location of the Chamber of Commerce.

The facts are sufficient to prove that he had been targeted by the enemy, which is why he was accurately located.

The astral plane, such a colossal entity, is a fertile and mutated land that breeds many other colossal entities.

Hidden within the astral plane, it extends countless tentacles, reaching every corner of the world.

Countless eyes coldly gaze upon this world, looking down upon the ants of humanity like gods.

Without a strong background, one lacks sufficient means to protect oneself, and one's whereabouts can be easily monitored and betrayed.

As people continue to come into contact with and understand the Star Realm, its mysterious veil is gradually lifted. It is indeed a place where powerful people gather and a cradle for cultivating cultivators, but it is also more likely to produce deformed flowers.

No wonder that in all the worlds, wizards are described as evil and insane, portrayed as madmen who combine reason and madness.

Although he was aware of his situation, Tang Zhen did not panic. As long as it wasn't a deity targeting him, there was no need to worry too much.

With Tang Zhen's abilities, he could easily resolve this.

You could also use a counter-strategy to lure the enemy out; you might get some unexpected gains.

If the creator of the teleportation token were still alive today, would he be lured out by Tang Zhen's bounty mission?
If you want to use yourself as bait, you can't hide yourself; you have to make sure the other party can see you clearly.

Upon arriving at the Chamber of Commerce's port, Tang Zhen waited in the waiting hall, an ancient building with a history of over a thousand years, where all sorts of passengers were waiting.

The spaceship Tang Zhen was traveling on was a super-large hybrid spacecraft, which not only wizards could ride, but ordinary people were also qualified to board.

The difference is that ordinary people can only sit in the lower cabins when they board the ship and are not qualified to go to higher areas.

While they waited, they were in another area, separated from the area for nobles and monks.

A group of handsome men and beautiful women dressed in strange costumes walked by, clearly another group of noble descendants who had mingled on the spaceship, attempting to rise to the top in one step.

Tang Zhen was all alone, which attracted the attention of many noble descendants, but without an invitation, they had no right to approach the wizard.

While Tang Zhen was quietly sipping his tea, a tall and beautiful figure sat down uninvited in front of him.
