Translator: 549690339
The few from Misty Peak departed; they still needed to continue their ruse and rob several waves of cultivators to accumulate wealth.
However, it was all in vain for them; all the space rings of the cultivators they encountered had automatically made paynt along the way.
Now, seeking trouble with them wouldn’t yield a single benefit.
Watching the group’s departing figures, Li Xiaobai felt his fellow disciples were sowhat mysterious, seemingly stumbling upon all sorts of treasure lands whenever they t, their cultivation levels would have also increased hugely, and they always managed to escape unhard from danger.
Shaking his head, everyone has their secrets, and he was not one to gossip; the task at hand was what mattered.
He continued leading everyone deeper into the cave.
Along the way, they still encountered many cultivators killing each other, and the deeper they went, the more corpses they found, all dead by their own people’s hands.
Monk Liaowang chanted sutras to liberate the souls along the way, wishing to escort them peacefully to the afterlife.
“Little monk, these people died because of their own greed and desires; they’re not worth liberating,” Su i’er said.
“Amitabha, everyone has the chance to go to the Western Pure Land,” Monk Liaowang remained unmoved.
“How old are you, little monk?”
“I have spent my years idly; I am already twenty-one,” Liaowang replied.
“Not bad, I’m about the sa age as you this year, I’m eighteen,” Su i’er said with a smile.
Li Xiaobai glanced at her, thinking the woman had quite the thick skin; looking at her mature and enchanting appearance, he’d believe her if she said she was thirty.
Su i’er sensed Li Xiaobai’s gaze and suddenly beca furious, “Boy, what does that look an? Are you doubting the real age of this lady?”
“Heaven forbid, the lady is forever eighteen,” Li Xiaobai replied distractedly, half-heartedly.
“That’s more like it.”
Su i’er’s expression softened, but she sohow felt sothing was off about that statent.
“There is a strong Demonic Qi up ahead.”
Yu Sanbian said, his nose was particularly keen, and after inhaling Huazi, his bodily senses had beco even more acute.
“Seems like we’re about to reach the end.”
…
At the sa ti.
Inside the cave.
The cultivators in various parts of the cave slowly regained their composure, involuntarily taking a couple of inhalations of Huazi, their Spiritual Platforms clear, their minds instantly alert.
“Was I possessed just now?”
“My God, I actually killed so many!”
“Who saved us?”
The cultivators were shocked to their cores; the mountain of corpses and sea of blood before them filled them with horror. Killing fellows was a capital offense, especially since so many had died.
If soone were to find out, they would not escape bla.
Examining the Huazi in their mouths carefully, it was this little thing that had restored their senses.
Not only that, but after inhalation, they felt their cultivation levels and grasp of cultivation techniques were on the verge of breaking through to a new realm.
“Sss, this thing is truly miraculous!”
“Who was it that put this in our mouths? When I return, I must report it to the Sect to properly thank this person!”
“Yeah, to save us, they used such a treasure, truly, what a good person!”
“Eh, my Space Ring is gone, there are words on the ground!”
After a short burst of excitent, the many cultivators recovered their composure, began to inspect their belongings, and imdiately noticed the space rings they always carried were missing.
At the sa ti, they saw a line of writing on the ground.
“A good Samaritan, Li Xiaobai, here; your ransom has been paid automatically. It’s not safe to stay longer in the cave, therefore please leave as quickly as possible!”
“Don’t thank , I’m just a kind-hearted citizen!”
Sss!
The cave fell into a brief silence, only to erupt violently monts later.
“While we lost our senses, this person stole our Space Rings!”
“Li Xiaobai, this person is audacious to the extre, I’m a cultivator from Fire Qilin Cave, and the Space Ring holds the secrets of our sect, how dare he take it?”
“We must find this person, all of our sect’s secret knowledge is stored within the Space Rings, if he looks into it, it could lead to a disaster!”
“Let’s get out of here first, the treasures in our mouths are about to burn out!”
The inscriptions on the ground sent the cultivators into a rage.
They wanted to imdiately pursue Li Xiaobai, but after noticing that the Huazi in their mouths were nearly burned out, they decisively chose to evacuate.
This person is truly talented, ransom money, yet automatically paid, how did he co up with that, he’s simply a business genius.
“Let’s block the entrance to the Secret Realm, he’s bound to show up!”
…
Deep within the cave, where the Demonic Qi was so dense it couldn’t be more intense, Li Xiaobai couldn’t feel it, but it was clear that the color was draining from the faces of the others.
Despite the Huazi protecting them, they were still struggling to cope with this breath.
There were no living people around here, only corpses. Many powerful beings at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage had also perished here, with twisted and fierce expressions on their faces, their minds had suffered greatly before death.
“Thud!”
The sound of a heartbeat ca, emitted by the Demonic Divine Heart hidden in the darkness.
Li Xiaobai, as usual, started looting the corpses, never leaving empty-handed, as the resources inside these big shots’ Space Rings were unimaginably plentiful.
“Is this the Demonic Divine Heart?” Yu Sanbian, unable to see the scene, asked.
“Why do I feel like this is a Flesh Mountain instead?”
Su i’er spoke, the existence of Flesh Mountains was not a secret, it’s just that the ones typically seen were intentionally dosticated by sects.
The heart before them, both in shape and breath, greatly resembled a Flesh Mountain, and the breath that eroded people’s minds was also similar to that of a Flesh Mountain.
“The monk also thinks it’s quite similar,” Monk Liaowang nodded in agreent.
Li Xiaobai stepped forward to examine closely, it was a huge chunk of flesh, pulsating slowly; two huge, fleshy tendrils extended from the chunk’s ends, rging with the surrounding stone walls.
“This indeed resembles a Flesh Mountain, is this fleshly body also a living being?”
“A Flesh Mountain shouldn’t count as a living being; it’s a state without consciousness, acting only on instinct.”
Monk Liaowang explained, having seen many Flesh Mountains during his travels, but he had never seen one so large, and besides, it was pulsing like a heart, which was quite out of the ordinary.
He reached out and touched it lightly, a streak of light swept past, entering Li Xiaobai’s forehead.
[Attribute Points 10000…]
[Achievent: Trouble Maker (4/108)]
Allocate all to defense.
[Defensive Power: Fleshly Saint (2000/1000000) Upgradeable.]
The defensive power upgraded, a layer of faint golden tattoo patterns spread across the body, and the Primordial Aura erupted, sweeping through the entire cave.
Feeling this ancient aura, everyone was deeply alard.
“Brother Li, what is this…”
Yu Sanbian’s expression showed disbelief, he felt an overpowering force awakening.
“Heh, I’ve made a breakthrough,” Li Xiaobai said.
The Flesh Mountain heart seed to be stimulated by this aura, its body trembled, and it, too, emitted an incredibly powerful breath that ca crashing down.
This breath was extrely sinister, as if composed of countless negative emotions, making those within it feel as if they were in an ice cave.
Simultaneously, the entire cave began to quake violently, boulders rolled, and dust filled the air.
“This is bad, the Flesh Mountain is reviving, the cave is collapsing, let’s get out of here!”
