Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

Li Yun looked at the imposing tall young man with a strange expression, and there was even a trace of pity in his eyes.

That seemingly small and adorable squirrel was actually an existence capable of injuring him by casually throwing a pinecone. Its strength was at least comparable to a 9th level Mortal Core Realm expert, and it might even be stronger than that. Yet this tall young man, who was only at the 7th level of the Mortal Core Realm, actually wanted to capture it and keep it as a pet.

Calling this seeking death was no longer enough to describe his actions.

He was practically throwing himself into the jaws of death.

Squeak! Squeak!

Sure enough, the moment the small squirrel sensed the tall young man approaching, it immediately let out a series of sharp cries. Somehow, another pinecone had already appeared in its furry paw, and with a quick toss, it sent the pinecone flying straight toward the tall young man.

Bang!

The pinecone moved with terrifying speed. It was at least twice the speed of sound, and perhaps even faster. A streak of brown light flashed through the air, and the pinecone smashed directly into the tall young man’s head.

With a crisp cracking sound, his head burst apart into a bloody mess.

”What?”

”Tang Yunhe!”

Seeing this, the remaining brocade-robed young men all changed expressions. Two of them seemed to have a close relationship with the tall young man. Their eyes instantly turned red with fury, and with angry roars, they lunged toward the squirrel at the same time.

Crack!

At that moment, a green vine released a sharp explosive sound and whipped viciously toward one of them. The vine was so fast and sharp that it actually sliced the person’s body in half, causing blood to spray into the air.

At the same time, a crimson trumpet flower bloomed silently nearby.

Its petals expanded countless times in an instant, turning into a huge maw that resembled the mouth of a primordial beast. With one bite, it swallowed the remaining person whole.

Gulp! Gulp!

After that, the crimson trumpet flower returned to its original size. However, a series of eerie swallowing sounds came from its stem, making the hearts of those who heard it turn cold.

”This...”

”My heavens...”

The sudden turn of events terrified the remaining people completely. Their faces turned pale, and sweat poured down their foreheads as though they had just witnessed the most horrifying scene in the world.

What exactly had they seen?

A squirrel had used a pinecone to smash a 7th level Mortal Core Realm cultivator to death.

A vine had directly cut another cultivator in half.

Even more terrifyingly, a crimson trumpet flower had swallowed an 8th level Mortal Core Realm cultivator whole.

This was simply a nightmare.

”Bastard!”

The seductively dressed woman suddenly turned and glared furiously at Li Yun. Her eyes were filled with hatred as she shouted, ”Li Yun, you knew how dangerous this place was all along, yet you did not warn us. You deliberately set us up, did you not? Tang Yunhe and the others died because of you, you shameless scoundrel. Kill him. Kill him now.”

The woman gritted her teeth in rage. The tall young man named Tang Yunhe had been her fiancé, and seeing him die right before her eyes had completely robbed her of reason.

”That is right. This is all because of Li Yun.”

”If not for Li Yun, Tang Yunhe and the others would never have died. Kill him.”

Hearing the woman’s words, the others immediately nodded in agreement. Their gazes toward Li Yun filled with killing intent, and after exchanging a glance, they charged at him without hesitation.

The squirrel, the vine, and the crimson trumpet flower were existences they could not afford to provoke. However, dealing with Li Yun, who was merely at the 7th level of the Essence Qi Realm, should be as easy as turning over a hand.

”Hm?”

Seeing these people charge toward him with killing intent, Li Yun’s expression darkened, and he could not help letting out a cold laugh.

These people had gone seeking death on their own. After paying a heavy price, they actually turned their anger toward him. Did they really think he was easy to bully?

After all, these people were only at the 7th level of the Mortal Core Realm, and the strongest among them had merely reached the 8th level of the Mortal Core Realm. Such strength was not even worth Li Yun’s attention.

”Spirit Sword Sealing Formation.”

Li Yun directly took out the Sword-Nurturing Gourd and pulled off the stopper.

In the next instant, ten Violet Shadow Swords flew out. A sinister vertical eye opened among the swords, and a strange restraining force immediately spread outward.

After the Violet Shadow Swords had been upgraded to the high-grade Earth Rank, the Spirit Sword Sealing Formation could even briefly restrain experts at the 9th level of the Mortal Core Realm. Against these 7th and 8th level Mortal Core Realm cultivators, its effect was naturally overwhelming.

”What is going on?”

”Why can I not use my essence qi?”

In the next moment, the imposing brocade-robed young men all changed expressions. When they felt their bodies become empty and realized they could not summon even a trace of essence qi, terror immediately appeared on their faces.

”Die.”

Li Yun paid no attention to their fear.

With a swing of his sword, several arcs of Sword Qi shot out and directly killed all of them.

”Impossible. This cannot be.”

Seeing this, the seductively dressed woman was completely stunned. She shook her head again and again, her face filled with disbelief and terror.

Her companions were all cultivators at the 7th level of the Mortal Core Realm, yet Li Yun had killed them all in a single exchange.

A demon.

This was simply a demon.

”Run.”

Only this thought remained in her mind. Without hesitation, she turned around and tried to flee.

However, at that moment, a sword light silently attacked from the side. With a quick flash, it directly severed the woman’s head.

A handsome and elegant white-robed young man then appeared before Li Yun, holding a three-foot green blade in his hand.

”You must be Li Yun, right?”

The white-robed young man smiled slightly and said, ”Do not worry. I bear no hostility toward you. I have a deep grudge against Crown Prince Xing Tian. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Since you are Crown Prince Xing Tian’s enemy, you are naturally my friend as well. This woman’s head is my greeting gift to you.”

As he spoke, the white-robed young man slowly walked toward Li Yun.

Just as he reached a distance of less than ten meters from Li Yun, the corner of his mouth suddenly lifted into a cold smile.

His sword moved.

In an instant, he swung his blade countless times. Layers of sword light rose and fell like waves, fiercely attacking Li Yun from every direction.

”Li Yun, die.”

The white-robed young man wore a victorious smile, as if he had already seen Li Yun’s corpse lying before him.

”I have been waiting for you.”

At that moment, a cold smile also appeared on Li Yun’s face.

Almost at the same time the white-robed young man attacked, Li Yun swung his sword as well.

Swoosh!

An astonishing Sword Qi extended more than six meters. Its speed reached one and a half times the speed of sound, and with one strike, it seemed to contain the force of thousands upon thousands of sword slashes.

In just a breath of time, the layers of sword light released by the white-robed young man were violently torn apart.

After that, the six-meter Sword Qi thrust straight toward the white-robed young man’s heart.

”What?”

The white-robed young man’s expression changed drastically.

He wanted to react, but it was already too late.

The six-meter Sword Qi had already pierced through his heart.

”You... how did you find out? I am not willing...”

He clutched his chest as regret and unwillingness filled his eyes. His body gradually turned cold, and then he collapsed powerlessly to the ground.

The white-robed young man was dead.
