“This…”

“This is impossible!”

The cultivators were shocked to their core, and Xiang Renjie’s face was a mask of disbelief. His attack had been ineffective.

He was a ranked fighter within the top three thousand, a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator at the peak of completion, just a step away from the Divinity Transformation Stage. How could someone catch his attack without any defense and remain completely unharmed?

“Amitabha, well done, well done,” Little Monk Liaowang sighed in relief upon seeing Li Xiaobai unharmed.

“Who on earth are you? You’re not listed among the top-ranking prodigies!”

Xiang Renjie was a mix of shock and rage. The other prodigies also wore expressions of surprise, their eyes becoming serious. They had thought they were dealing with an easy prey, but now it seemed as though they had kicked an iron plate.

“I am a ‘Seeking Death List’ top fighter, begging for death, Li Xiaobai!”

“I must say, you are truly weak, not even giving me the slightest bit of pressure!”

Li Xiaobai said nonchalantly, hands clasped behind his back.

This wave of enmity immediately maxed out, with everyone around him seething with anger. Xiang Renjie, in particular, was furiously enraged; he had never before encountered someone who dared to be so arrogant in his presence.

This absolute defiance was something he could not tolerate!

With a flick of his wrist, a huge longbow appeared in his hands—ancient and majestic, without a bowstring or an arrow, just a bare bow.

It was his Life-bound Spirit Treasure. Activating his cultivation technique, the Spiritual Power inside his body resonated with the Spiritual Treasure, causing fluctuations in Spiritual Power that automatically formed the bowstring and arrow.

Xiang Renjie’s expression was fierce as he aimed at Li Xiaobai, drew the bow fully, then released the arrow.

The pale golden Spiritual Power arrow pierced through the sky, shooting straight towards Li Xiaobai’s forehead.

Li Xiaobai watched the oncoming arrow with a smile, making no attempt to block it. The arrow struck true in his forehead, but after a moment of being stuck, it shattered inch by inch and dissolved into tiny sparkles that faded away.

[Attribute Points +2000…]

That attack was quite powerful, worthy of a Life-bound Spiritual Treasure indeed.

He nodded slightly, “That attack was somewhat decent, barely enough to make me feel a slight itch. Continue.”

Xiang Renjie’s eyes were filled with disbelief. He was wielding his Life-bound Spiritual Treasure, and yet it couldn’t even break the opponent’s skin?

Yuxiu frowned on the side. He had checked earlier; ‘Seeking Death’ Li Xiaobai was ranked beyond seven thousand. He didn’t seem like a top fighter in any aspect. Could he be feigning weakness to camouflage his true strength?

The feather fan in his hand wagged gently, and behind him a Divine Demon’s Primordial Spirit materialized with hand gestures. A thread of golden flame silently drifted towards Li Xiaobai.

“That’s Annihilation Sword Evocation!”

“Xingtian Sect’s speciality, condensing one’s Sword Intent to a certain degree that can materialize. Yuxiu has actually mastered this move; truly, it is formidable to the extreme!”

“Master Li, be careful, for this is the Sword Demon’s Annihilation Sword Evocation, not something to confront head-on.”

Monk Liaowang hastily warned, wanting to take action, but he was immediately blocked by several ranked fighters.

Li Xiaobai squinted at the golden flame before him. He had seen the Sword Demon once before during Qin Lan’s summoning. The man’s understanding of Sword Dao was very pure, and his moves were bound to be extraordinary.

With a slight raise of his hand, to the astonishment of all present, he caught the mass of golden Sword Intent with his body.

[Attribute Points +1000…]

[Attribute Points +1000…]

As expected of a prodigy, the Attribute Points provided were quite substantial.

The core within this flame consisted of threads and strands of golden Sword Intent. The flame’s appearance came from wisps of Sword Qi released from within the Sword Intent. Because of the high concentration, from a distance, it looked just like flame.

He brought the golden flame to his nose to sniff, then suddenly opened his mouth wide and swallowed it whole.

[Attribute Points +3000…]

[Attribute Points +3000…]

[Ding, host detected suffering continuous damage from Sword Intent, skill upgrade: Nine Revolutions Undying Sword Intent level six.]

[Attribute Points: 40000.]

All points to defense!

[Defensive Power: Indestructible Golden Body Ninth Revolution (2000/100000) ready to advance.]

This must be the final stage of the Indestructible Golden Body, requiring a direct increase to one hundred thousand attribute points.

“Holy shit, am I seeing things, or did he just eat the Xingtian Sect’s genius’s Sword Intent?”

“I saw it too, and he even sniffed it before he ate it!”

“Such a freak has actually appeared in our Immortal Spirit Continent, we must notify the sect elders immediately, we need to keep a close watch on this person in the future!”

At this moment, Yu Xi’s gaze was somewhat vacant. He had used Xingtian Sect’s ultimate skill, Sword Break, compressing Sword Intent into a high-density flame of Sword Intent, to explode ferociously upon encountering an enemy, with a power several times that of the original Sword Intent.

He was at the Divinity Transformation Stage of cultivation, yet still, he couldn’t even scratch the opponent.

Damn it, what on earth is this person’s level of cultivation?

Little Monk Liaowang was also somewhat stunned; he hadn’t expected that the person he had been painstakingly advising all along was actually a hidden super expert.

“Master, look, you’ve been advising me not to kill, but now these people are besieging me, wanting to put me to death. Tell me, should I just let them bully and kill me, or should I defend myself and kill them in self-defense?”

Li Xiaobai lifted his head and spoke to Little Monk Liaowang.

Liaowang was at a loss for words, he wanted to say that Li Xiaobai could just escape, that way no one would have to die, but that would be too unfair to Li Xiaobai.

“Amitabha.”

Monk Liaowang remained silent for a long time, and in the end, he simply chanted a Buddha’s name. He had nothing to say.

“This monk just doesn’t wish to see various masters recklessly commit murder.”

The cultivators had strange looks on their faces. This little monk’s cultivation was unquestionably high, but his brain seemed to really be lacking. The situation was already kill or be killed, yet he still thought about resolving grudges?

Li Xiaobai almost laughed out of frustration. This little monk was indeed an oddity; you couldn’t say he was inexperienced, as he emanated a mature temperament in every move he made.

But if he was really seasoned, how could he utter such saintly words?

Looking at the dense crowd above, a cold light flashed in Li Xiaobai’s eyes. It was time to advance his defensive power; no need to wait any longer. It was the perfect opportunity to make another fortune!

He flipped his wrist, and an unremarkable longsword appeared in his hand.

Stepping back twice, he held the longsword high above his head.

Monk Liaowang’s expression drastically changed, “Master Li, spare them, everything is negotiable. Killing will only add to your karmic obstacles, greatly hindering your future cultivation!”

The rest of the cultivators also felt an inexplicable chill in their hearts upon seeing this scene. Though they didn’t know what he was going to do, based on his previous actions, this man was definitely an expert. An expert making a move was something they likely couldn’t block.

“Master, people in this world are divided into good and evil, and those before us are just a group of fools whose minds have been corrupted by greed. They’re not worth your salvation. If you save these bad people, that is when you will truly be entangled in causality.”

Not waiting for the little monk to object, Li Xiaobai made his move with his sword.

Prepare to accept your punishment.
