Chapter 235 - Demon Suppressing Rope
Narrowing his gaze, Su Zimo let out a wary look.
Even though the gray robed cultivator before him was only at early-stage Foundation Establishment, Su Zimo did not dare to be careless.
The person reeked of a strange and unfathomable aura from head to toe.
Furthermore, the fact that this man was able to cross the primordial forest and sea of bones with ease was reason enough for Su Zimo to be wary!
Arriving around ten meters in front of Su Zimo, the gray robed cultivator stopped in his tracks all of a sudden. Raising his brows, he asked with a fake smile, “Fellow Daoist, you’re really following tightly. I didn’t manage to shake you off at all?”
Su Zimo looked at the person calmly and remained silent.
A hint of mockery flashed in the gray robed cultivator’s eyes and his expression darkened. His smile was suddenly wiped away as he asked in a cold tone, “Tell me, what’s your background? Why are you following me!”
Having said that, the gray robed cultivator stared fixedly at Su Zimo’s face, hoping to find a clue in his expression and gaze.
That tap was done extremely swiftly. Landing with absolute precision, even the timing was perfect as well!
Bang!
Su Zimo’s wrist went numb and the power of that punch dissipated entirely.
Right after, a piercing pain surged from Su Zimo’s wrist, as if it was snapped!
The gray robed cultivator chuckled. Out of nowhere, he produced a rope and tossed it in Su Zimo’s direction gently while muttering, “Restrict!”
That rope coiled around Su Zimo’s body immediately, tying his arms and legs to both sides of his body while circling round after round.
In the blink of an eye, Su Zimo was completely restricted by that unassuming rope and could not move at all!
A black shadow fluttered out.
“Night Spirit, don’t move!”
Su Zimo called back Night Spirit immediately.
In reality, the moment the gray robed cultivator attacked, Su Zimo had already realized that this person was definitely not at early-stage Foundation Establishment.
It could be a Golden Core or even a Nascent Soul.
At the very least, the cultivation realm of the gray robed cultivator was far superior to his.
Against such a powerful cultivator, it would be useless even if Night Spirit were to charge at him. Instead, it might even be killed by the gray robed cultivator!
Stopping in its tracks, Night Spirit glared at the gray robed cultivator coldly. It raised its head and a deep growl came from the depths of its throat, filled with killing intent.
“Heh!”
The gray robed cultivator walked before Night Spirit and squatted, saying with a smile, “You’ve sure got some guts, black dog cub. How dare you attack me?”
The proximity between the man and beast was extremely close!
Night Spirit could reach him just by raising its paw.
However, Night Spirit did not make a move still after a while, merely looking at him with a cold gaze.
Smiling, the gray robed cultivator tapped Night Spirit on the head with his folding fan. “Not bad. You’re quite clever. How lucky of you.”
Su Zimo exhaled deeply.
Naturally, he could tell that the gray robed cultivator was deliberately luring Night Spirit to attack earlier on!
If Night Spirit had truly attacked, not only would it fail to injure the gray robed cultivator, the latter would even take the opportunity to kill it!
The gray robed cultivator stood up and looked at Su Zimo with a helpless expression. He spread out his hands and said, “Since you’re unwilling to leave, I can only hold you here.”
“By the way, this is the Demon Suppressing Rope. Oh, I don’t think you’ve heard of it.”
The gray robed cultivator continued, “Even pure-blooded ferocious beasts would be tied up tightly by the Demon Suppressing Rope. Although your body is strong, it’s not comparable to pure-blooded ferocious beasts. So, don’t bother lest you bring about suffering for yourself.”
Su Zimo did not reply.
The gray robed cultivator turned over and took a few steps. Seemingly worried, he said, “Stay here obediently. I’ll be back in a little while and help you undo the Demon Suppressing Rope.”
With that said, the gray robed cultivator tunneled into the forest with swift steps. Heading towards the peak, he disappeared before long.
