Chunibyo in Cultivation World

Ming Yin and Xu Yuqing’s soul attacks had already invaded Li Tianwei’s divine consciousness.

No matter how much they thought about it, they could never have imagined that their actions upon Li Tianwei would actually be taken by him as a Heart Demon Tribulation.

If the two of them had known, they would probably have cursed Li Tianwei furiously—what kind of person was this! They, Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators, had poured all their strength into killing him, yet he was still thinking about such nonsense.

The Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity, combined with the might of the Heaven-Ending Yin Fiend, one black and one white, one holy and one demonic, together with the terrifying mass and energy eruption of the Fusion Golden Core, truly formed a majestic pressure that felt as if heaven and earth themselves would be shattered.

Elder Fuzhen, who had been locked in battle with Lan Yu, also felt this sudden eruption of power and his expression changed drastically.

He turned his head, only to see a surge of dark and gloomy aura descending like a Great Demon—but within those eyes shone a compassionate light.

Two opposing forces merged into one; no matter how one looked at it, the scene was extraordinarily bizarre.

Yet that was not what drew his attention most. What stood out was the Golden Core hovering and spinning in midair, its pressure overwhelming even the Ninety-Fifth Heavenly Tribulation and the combined attack of Ming Yin and Xu Yuqing.

A hundred Dao Intent engravings, an absolute mass, and the immense energy contained within—

“This guy…”

Elder Fuzhen could not help but swallow hard.

He could never have imagined that he would actually feel a sense of death coming from a Golden Core cultivator.

A being at the Golden Core Realm—his manifestation alone could suppress countless of them with ease.

But the Li Tianwei before him was utterly unreasonable—how could he form a hundred kinds of Dao Intents, and such a strange and eerie Golden Core at that?

“Is that thing even a Golden Core?”

“Isn’t it supposed to be a small little orb?”

Elder Fuzhen wanted to complain, but since he still had to contend with Lan Yu, he could only suppress the thought in his heart.

At this moment, he even felt a bit relieved that they had mobilized three Spirit Transformation cultivators for this operation.

Moreover, the two Spirit Transformation cultivators had been cautious—they didn’t choose to clash head-on with that Golden Core but instead fought Li Tianwei from areas where they held an advantage.

The Golden Core was strange, his techniques were strange and powerful—so they simply avoided them.

No matter how terrifying his talent, no matter how he could create such an incredible Golden Core and skills, he was still a cultivator who had only trained for a very short time.

Spells and cultivation could be raised rapidly, but the divine soul and consciousness were the very foundation. Those required time and experience to strengthen. Surely he couldn’t also be overwhelmingly strong in that aspect, right?

Seeing Ming Yin and Xu Yuqing using divine soul techniques—attacking from the source—Elder Fuzhen truly breathed a sigh of relief.

If he had possessed the awareness of people from Li Tianwei’s original world, he might have silently given them a thumbs-up. Having such cautious and non-reckless teammates—splendid.

Compared to Elder Fuzhen, Lan Yu’s mood was far from pleasant.

Elder Fuzhen’s sudden assault was completely beyond Lan Yu’s expectations. Even the higher-ups of the Sacred Land of Lingxu probably hadn’t imagined they would send three Spirit Transformation cultivators just for Li Tianwei.

This wasn’t like thousands of years ago—nowadays, those of the Spirit Transformation Realm could no longer act freely under the restrictions of Heaven and Demons. They were already the highest combat power.

To send three Spirit Transformation cultivators against a single Golden Core was utterly inconceivable.

And how did they even know Li Tianwei was in the Forbidden Land of Taixu?

It might not just be an issue between the two Sacred Lands—perhaps even the Sacred Land of Lingxu itself had internal problems.

Facing Elder Fuzhen’s assault, Lan Yu looked at the Heaven-Repelling Mirror in his hand, combined with Elder Fuzhen’s peak Spirit Transformation strength—Lan Yu knew clearly that even self-preservation was difficult, let alone protecting Li Tianwei.

If not for Li Tianwei suddenly displaying such shocking ability, Lan Yu would have thought everything was already over.

“Shameless! Despicable! As Spirit Transformation cultivators, you actually use such means against a junior!”

Lan Yu’s eyes burned with anger as he saw Ming Yin and Xu Yuqing unleashing the power of their souls, cursing furiously.

Unfortunately, his words were useless—Elder Fuzhen continued pressing forward relentlessly.

Crack—Boom!

From Elder Fuzhen’s and Lan Yu’s perspectives, Li Tianwei’s current situation seemed utterly hopeless.

The gap between a Golden Core and a Spirit Transformation cultivator was not merely in cultivation, but in the very methods they could wield.

Golden Core cultivators hadn’t even begun to touch upon the domain of the soul, while Spirit Transformation cultivators could completely crush them within it.

In terms familiar to Li Tianwei’s past world—it was a higher-dimensional being attacking a lower-dimensional one, an absolute one-sided suppression.

Of course, if the situation truly matched the normal standard of a Golden Core cultivator, then Ming Yin and Xu Yuqing’s choice would have been completely correct—using soul power that a Golden Core could hardly comprehend to crush him.

But that was the premise. What if Li Tianwei wasn’t within that range?

That… would depend on who was watching.

When the divine soul power descended into Li Tianwei’s inner sea of consciousness, Xu Yuqing and Ming Yin immediately got their answer.

A profound silence and a sense of stillness spread around them.

Both stopped instinctively. For a moment, they couldn’t even tell if they had truly entered Li Tianwei’s divine sea of consciousness.

It was too deep, too quiet—like falling into an endless domain of souls, vast beyond comprehension.

Before long, a boundless starry sea appeared before their eyes.

Ming Yin and Xu Yuqing were instantly transfixed, staring upward in disbelief.

“What’s going on? I remember I entered Li Tianwei’s divine sense sea to erase his soul! Why is this place so strange?”

Xu Yuqing asked uncontrollably, not realizing that this was Li Tianwei’s inner consciousness.

After all, as Spirit Transformation cultivators, how could they have imagined that a man who had only cultivated for a few short years would possess not only transcendent cultivation, ability, and talent, but also a divine soul that had transformed into another level entirely?

As for why Li Tianwei’s soul and consciousness sea were so vast—

Li Tianwei would only give one answer: Shouldn’t it be this way?

From the very start of his cultivation, the Fission Qi-Guiding Method, his ceaseless comprehension, the absorption of Heaven and Earth’s resentment energy, and the immense powers from the Land of Near Dao—

He had even purified the stray thoughts of celestial souls.

Through all these temperings, besides improving his cultivation, his divine soul and consciousness naturally grew stronger. Wasn’t that perfectly normal?

Wasn’t that how everyone cultivated?

Li Tianwei, unaware of their confusion, now looked at Xu Yuqing and Ming Yin with puzzlement.

“Is this what Heart Demons look like?”

“Shouldn’t they look like me and say things to shake my Dao Heart?”

“Why do they look like an old man and a shady fellow?”

“Even real demons look stronger than them.”

Li Tianwei examined them up and down, a question mark floating over his head.
