Ancient Dream Collector - Chapter 10. Poisonous Skeleton Sect.
Big tiger was a lone cultivator in Peak Xiantian Spirit Realm, and had always lusted after power, his greed for power had already corrupted his mind that he will do anything to attain more power, he had even killed his own brother after a certain treasure he had acquired.
He loved the feeling of people looking up to him, treating as a almighty cultivator where ever he went from towns to small cities there will always be someone who will follow behind him to lick his boots.
But deep down inside of him, he knew that, he was nothing in front of other cultivators on the same stage from big clans and Sects and he hated this feeling of being looked down upon by them.
Because of the treasures and secret cultivation manuals are not easily attainable and was mainly monopolized by the sects and clans.
And now when he has a chance, the chance to acquire the treasure that even those bigger sects and mighty empires will go crazy to get their hands on it.
Looking at the place where tens of thousands of cultivators has arrived, he got nervous that he won’t get any chance if he waited for it, as the greed and lust for power deep inside him had awakened and took over his rationality to think clearly.
Without thinking he just jumped inside the barrier with other cultivators who have the same look on their face as him.
He had already thought of a plan to how to take care of the twenty or so cultivators in front him and was waiting for the perfect chance.
As they moved forward, the chaotic weather calmed down but the clouds got denser and darker, some shapes even looked like eyes watching over him as he moved deeper.
Seeing the strange and eerie atmosphere, he had calmed down a little as he moved forward with others.
After some time they can see a certain area where everything was silent, not even wind was flowing.
All they can see was, a pillar of light which directly fell from the giant hole in the clouds upon a big Dome shaped fog creating a sacred feeling.
This fog totally covered the whole island as no one can even see inside of it.
Seeing this they all flew towards the dome shaped fog as fast as they can, they even forgot to fight each other as they had planned, same goes for big tiger he also forgot about his plan and joined the race to reach inside the island and acquire the treasure and then run away.
“Halt your Steps.”
When all of them were about two hundred meters away from the fog they heard a crisp and clear sound of someone as it had a very ancient feel to it, and they all felt a sense of danger, that if they even move a single step forward there head will leave there body in an instant.
They all stopped and looked around only to find no one around.
Sometime passed, but still there was no one.
They continued to look around, as no one wanted to take a chance, but in a pack of sheep’s there will always be a wolf in a sheep’s clothing.
They failed to notice that a certain skinny cultivator who saw every one cowering and looking around, moved forward in a fast speed towards the fog.
Seeing that a certain cultivator left them behind, they also moved forgetting about the warning.
And that was their biggest mistake, they made in their life.
It only took several seconds when a dark demonic hand came up on them from the clouds as purple colored lightning crackled on it.
Seeing this giant hand in front of them, all of them became terrified as many of them didn’t even have the chance to retreat.
The first cultivator was one of those people, as the hand directly struck him and he was covered in the lightning as he didn’t even get the chance to scream and disappeared.
Seeing the demonic hand still moving forward all of them were horrified as they knew that they will die if the hand even touched them, but before they could do anything all of them were struck by the powerful lightning as a powerful force invaded there body burning them from inside out.
And a powerful repelling force threw them all outside the barrier directly.

Inside the fog Xiao Shi was watching the scene outside as the giant demonic hand struck the first cultivator, he wasn’t able to tell Old Chang not to kill anyone, but it was already too late.
He was shocked as he didn’t even felt bad or guilty, it was the opposite he felt a strange sense of excitement.
‘Is this the change system was talking about, the change that my bloodline brings.’
He was still thinking about as he saw the hand moving forward to kill all of them.
“Make sure to not kill them.”
He instructed towards Old Chang as he did not want to become a demon and unnecessary kill everyone.
*DING*
[Congratulation Host on Killing a Peak Xiantian Spirit Cultivator: Achieved 500 EXP Points.]
[Earned 5 soul Points.]
Hearing this he looked towards the notification forgetting about the toasted cultivators.
‘So, I can also earn EXP this way.’ He thought as he found a new way to level up.
[Host there is something that system wants to remind you]
[Killing will also let you earn Experience Points from which you can level up easily, but killing the innocents will lead you towards the heavenly tribulation, as host is not allowed to kill without a reason.]
[The cultivator you killed earlier was a greedy criminal who killed normal people for fun, and he died as his destiny lead him towards his death.]
‘So as long as they are criminals or my enemy I can kill them right.’
[YES host is correct.]
‘And what are those Sole Points?’
[Soul points shows the increase in your soul power, by earning those points you can also strengthen your Soul to achieve a higher grade.]
While he was busy talking with system, Big tiger and rest of them were Charred Black and thrown out.

All the people watched towards the injured Cultivators, as they all wanted to inquire about what happened inside abut when they saw a certain Person walking towards the group of injured people, they all stopped.
“Oye, what made you all idiots this scared.” Asked the Person towards the Big Tiger and others.
Being called an idiot in front of all the cultivators big tiger wanted to directly curse towards the person but when he looked towards him he was scared.
The person in front of him have a smiling pale face as if he had no Blood inside, his eyes here totally black and he has long green hairs falling to the side.
The clothes of the person was totally black as well, and a logo of a Green skeleton and a sword can be seen on the robe.
This logo was the identity of the one of the most evil organizations present on this Continent.
The Poisonous Skeleton Sect.
And as there name suggest they basically cultivated in poison.
This sect was evil to the point that they wouldn’t even spare a newborn child.
Watching the person from one of those sects coming towards him Big Tiger was sacred and he unconsciously moved backward.
Seeing Big Tiger not responding towards his question and trying to run away, the people from his sects laughed towards him which made the man angry as his disappeared from where he was and appeared in front of Big Tiger.
As his pale hands moved at lightning speed and gripped Big Tigers Throat.
“I will ask this Question again, and if you do not answer me this time you will die.” He said as he looked directly in big tigers eyes who was scared Shitless and was rooted on the spot.
“Fo…ForForgive me Sir, I was just mesmerized by seeing, the grate Sir walking towards me and wasn’t able to think straight.” Big tiger started his bootlicking technique he had acquired all this year’s dealing with other cultivators from the sect.
Hearing the bootlicking of big tiger, the man kind of liked it and looked little pleased, and removed the grip from his neck.
“Speak.” The man said.
Big tiger didn’t want to take any other chance as he was already injured, he started recounting what happened inside.
All of the cultivators were focused on the listening, and the more they heard the more scared they felt but all of them were confused about one thing.
“You said, how much time were you all inside the barrier?” asked the same man who was still standing in front of him listening.
“About 2 hours.” Big tiger answered as every other cultivators present became stunned.
“Holy haven, is this for real.” Said a guy standing on the sword with others in the crowd.
“It has to be real, as you can see he is not lying.” Said someone from the crowd.
“Why are you guys asking about time?” Seeing all the exaggerated expressions big tiger was confused and asked to the first person from the crowd.
“Because from what we remember, you all were inside for only 2 minutes.” Explained the man from Poisonous sect who was still in front of him.
All the cultivators were clear on one thing now and that was, there was a sacred treasure inside and the time inside moved faster than outside.
