Chapter 1655: Chapter 1657: Wu Clan, Main Family!
At the sa ti, Li Xiaobai navigated his warship into a foggy area, where dark green smoke surged all around. As he inhaled, System Attribute Points soared.
[Attribute Point 10,000…]
[Attribute Point 10,000…]
[…]
The fog was toxic and dense. Although the harm wasn’t high, it was persistent, continually providing attribute points.
This area delved deeper into the Southern Territory, filled with poisonous creatures. Occasionally, poisonous insects fluttered by, and the hull of the small boat was gradually corroded, slowing its speed. The already battered warship appeared even more tattered at this mont.
“Uncle Wu, how much longer until we pass this Poison Realm?”
A female voice sounded in his ear.
Then, an elderly voice replied, “We’re only halfway. Use the cha sparingly—rely on your cultivation level if you can. Don’t keep using the cha; it’s quite resource-heavy.”
“Why aren’t we taking the warship then? Crossing with just our bodies is too risky and too slow. I’m afraid we won’t make it to the clan eting in ti.”
“Normal warships will be quickly corroded in this Poison Realm. cha warships capable of withstanding it are too expensive; our family can’t afford them. We had no choice but this. Today’s clan eting is rely a gathering of various branch leaders—the real eting starts tomorrow. We have ample ti,”
The elder was conversing with a young girl when suddenly both fell silent.
A mont later, Li Xiaobai’s ear was filled again with the young girl’s sneaky voice.
“Uncle Wu, didn’t you say that no one would venture into the Poison Realm in a normal warship? What’s the deal with that ship?”
“No need to mind it; his warship will soon collapse and be consud.”
The elder spoke, “There are always so who try to be clever, attempting to get lucky. Once the warship breaks apart, his body will soon be wiped out in the Poison Realm as well.”
But what happened next left him dumbfounded.
The warship stopped, the entire vessel corroded away, leaving a young man lying unhard. A golden chariot erged, hoisting his body and drove forward.
As they passed by, they heard the young man’s muttering, “How did it corrode so fast? The Wu Clan’s warship is complete trash, forcing to flee myself.”
Within a few breaths, he vanished into the fog.
“Uncle Wu, it seems he wasn’t corroded by the fog?”
The girl tilted her head, full of bewildernt.
The elder looked down at the layer of cha armor enveloping himself, filled with shock. Rumor had it that mighty beings of unimaginable cultivation could cross the Poison Realm with their bodies unhard. Today, they seed to encounter such a person. What intrigued him most was the ntion of the Wu Clan from the young man’s words, indicating that he too was from the Wu Clan and had the qualification to attend the eting!
“That person just now was a branch clan leader of the Wu Clan. Our clan harbors such outstanding young talents.”
“Let’s catch up; we can’t miss out on such an important figure!”
…
A little over half an hour later.
Outside the fog, shadows flickered.
A young man in white was ushered out of the Poison Realm, surrounded by throngs of youths showering praises.
“Senior Brother Wang’s cultivation is indeed unfathomable, staying in the toxic fog for a full hundred breaths. Surely his cultivation has reached a new level.”
“Brother Wang truly deserves the title of prodigy from the Myriad Poison Cave. So young yet able to withstand a full hundred breaths in the toxic fog—his future potential is boundless.”
The cultivators’ eyes were full of envy and flattery in their expressions.
“Hahaha, not at all, just a stroke of luck,”
laughed the Wang-nad cultivator.
But as he laughed, he realized sothing was wrong. The surrounding crowd’s voices gradually quieted, all eyes uniformly fixing on a particular direction.
Li Xiaobai followed the paper’s guidance out of the Poison Realm. Looking at the gathering crowd, he scratched his head and asked, “Why are you all standing around like this? Start the eting already.”
“Did you see that? It seems that person ca straight out of the toxic fog. I thought Senior Brother Wang was already peerless. Whose subordinate is this?”
“By the looks of it, he’s not that old. Could he really have crossed directly through the Poison Realm?”
“Impossible, absolutely impossible. There’s no one of this level among cultivators of the sa tier!”
The young Wang’s heart was crying out, filled with disbelief. Crossing the Poison Realm unscathed—what imnse cultivation would that require?
It must be so old monster disguised as a young cultivator wandering the world, not soone to be trifled with.
Li Xiaobai wasn’t interested in this young crowd. Having mingled with top experts, he had long lost the desire to compete with the younger generation. His goal was the Universe.
The paper’s guidance hadn’t stopped, continuously drifting forward.
As he delved further along the path, he gradually noticed more people secretly joining his running team. These people flew and hid their auras. On the outside, it appeared that only he was on the sunlit path, but countless cultivators lurked in the shadows.
They weren’t coming for him; everyone’s destinations were sowhat different, ultimately stopping in front of an enormous wooden gate with the large character “Wu” inscribed on the plaque.
The paper’s guiding point turned out to be the headquarters of the Wu Clan. This ti, the transaction between the two sides was to take place at the headquarters; perhaps this is what they call “hiding in plain sight,” where the most dangerous places are often the safest for transactions.
In the open space in front of the door, space twisted and tore, and cultivators clad in gray robes erged, the atmosphere silent with a subtle air of dominance emanating from them.
“To all who have traveled from afar, this old man is deeply gratified. It seems that the Wu Clan is bustling with activity this year, flourishing with prosperity!”
An old man leaned against the door, bald with a chubby face shining with grease, looked at the silhouettes appearing in front of the gate, a pleased smile spread across his face.
“Gratified my ass, Emperor Wu. Stop pretending—fake acts get struck by lightning. Hurry and co down before the old Clan Leader shows up, or you’ll be in for it later.”
“This guy’s a sycophant, constantly claiming to be from the main Wu Clan. Do you think people recognize you?”
The elder’s words stirred displeasure among the powerful figures below. They were all heads of various branches of the Wu Clan, possessing profound cultivation and strength. None would submit to the other.
Emperor Wu, this old man, was always eager to pose as an expert from the main family, drawing strong dissatisfaction from other clan leaders.
Li Xiaobai, blending into the crowd, quietly searched for the transaction partner. The paper turned to dust and vanished here. The other party was cautious, unwilling to reveal their identity early.
The huge wooden door creaked open a crack, and the cultivators on the open space imdiately fell silent: “Shush, the old Clan Leader is coming out.”
