Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

Some people doubted the authenticity of this matter, but such doubts did not last long.

The fairness and credibility of Heaven Secret Tower had been tested over many years. Every seemingly absurd piece of information it released had eventually been proven correct. On such a major matter, Heaven Secret Tower would absolutely not fabricate the result.

In other words, Li Yun had broken the record of the Azure Void Region, becoming the first powerhouse in history to enter the top hundred of the Earth Ranking while only at the Half-Step Earthly Core Realm.

Many people could not help speaking of Li Yun and Yan Wuhen together, calling them the two shining rising stars of this era.

This level of praise undoubtedly elevated Li Yun and Yan Wuhen to a height that surpassed everyone else in the younger generation.

It also immediately placed both of them at the center of a storm.

In an unknown corner of the Azure Void Region, there was a black castle.

The entire interior of the castle was pitch-black, without a single ray of light. Billowing devilish qi churned endlessly like demonic dragons.

In the center of the endless devilish qi, a pale youth smiled slightly and muttered to himself, ”Interesting. A mere kid at the Half-Step Earthly Core Realm is actually being compared to me?”

”Shadow One.”

The corners of Yan Wuhen’s mouth curled up as he suddenly spoke.

”Holy Son.”

From a corner of the castle, a pitch-black shadow silently drifted out. He made no sound at all and appeared behind Yan Wuhen like a ghost.

”Do something for me.”

Yan Wuhen said indifferently, ”Tell our hidden pieces planted within the Seven Great Powers to kill Li Yun on the Floating Island. If necessary, it does not matter even if they expose their identities.”

”Yes.”

Shadow One nodded slightly without asking any questions.

Although it was not easy for the Ironblood Sect to plant hidden pieces within the Seven Great Powers, since Yan Wuhen had spoken, it would not matter even if they were all sacrificed.

”Additionally, go find the people from the Blood Blade Tavern.”

Yan Wuhen added, ”Have them wait outside the Floating Island. Once Li Yun leaves the Floating Island, kill him on the spot immediately. I do not want any accidents in this matter. Understood?”

”Understood.”

Shadow One nodded, and his entire body merged into the endless darkness. In an instant, he vanished completely.

”Li Yun?”

At the Profound Heaven Sect, a youth wearing blue robes adorned with a Taiji diagram stood at the top of a cliff. With his hands behind his back, he softly uttered that name.

”I, Wang Chen, ranked third on the Earth Ranking, do not even dare to call myself a top new star of this era. What right does a mere ninety-ninth on the Earth Ranking have to receive such praise? Once we reach the Floating Island, I shall certainly test your methods.”

With a cold laugh, Wang Chen closed his eyes.

At the Origin Saint Sect, a woman with a ponytail sat quietly in a training outfit.

She was not exceptionally beautiful, but her temperament was extremely refined and elegant. Before her lay a stack of information, and the most eye-catching words among them were Li Yun’s name.

However, after glancing only once at the pile of information, the woman withdrew her gaze.

No matter who her opponent was, she had absolute confidence.

That was because she was the strongest Inner Sect Disciple of the Origin Saint Sect, the number one on the Earth Ranking, Feng Qingxiao.

Meanwhile, inside the Heavenly Sword Sect, after a full ten days of cultivation, Li Yun was finally able to simultaneously control all three hundred and fifty-six precious swords.

Three hundred and fifty-six low-grade Heaven Rank precious swords were naturally incredibly powerful. Their combined might was not at all inferior to the full strength of Li Yun’s Fast Sword.

Moreover, with the nourishment of the Sword-Nurturing Gourd, these precious swords all possessed the potential to advance to top-grade Heaven Rank in the future. Once that happened, their power would rise to an unimaginable level.

Overall, Li Yun’s strength had improved quite a bit again.

”There are still five days before the Floating Island opens. I will go see Su Fengyan and the others first.”

Li Yun stood up.

Having returned to the sect for so long this time, it would be unreasonable not to visit them.

Thinking of this, he walked toward the Outer Sect. However, after making a round through the Outer Sect, he did not find any sign of Su Fengyan or the others.

”What is going on?”

Li Yun frowned.

Su Fengyan and the others were not people who sought pleasure. Under normal circumstances, if they were not in seclusion at their residences, they would be at the sect’s cultivation grounds. Yet they were not in any of these places.

Realizing that something was strange, he directly waited at the entrance of Su Fengyan’s residence.

He waited for several hours until the sun set and night completely fell. Only then did Su Fengyan and Li Hao finally return to the residence.

”Hm?”

With just one look at Su Fengyan and Li Hao, Li Yun’s gaze instantly became cold and sharp.

Both Su Fengyan and Li Hao were limping. Their faces were bruised black and blue, and many parts of their bodies were swollen. They looked extremely miserable.

”Li Yun?”

When they saw Li Yun, both Su Fengyan and Li Hao were stunned. Their expressions immediately became awkward.

Clearly, neither of them had expected to run into Li Yun under such miserable circumstances.

”What happened?”

Li Yun did not feel embarrassed for them. His face turned grim, and his voice became cold as he asked, ”Who made you look like this?”

Su Fengyan and Li Hao had both come from Southern Martial Domain with him. Although they had not interacted as much after joining the Heavenly Sword Sect, they were still people from the same homeland. Li Yun could not possibly ignore their humiliation.

”This...”

Su Fengyan hesitated for a moment, but Li Hao spoke first. ”It was the president of the Crimson Sun Society, Chi Liuyang.”

”Chi Liuyang?”

Li Yun raised an eyebrow. ”How did you get involved with the Crimson Sun Society?”

The Crimson Sun Society was also a fairly powerful small group within the Heavenly Sword Sect. Although there was still a significant gap between it and the Moon Orchid Society, it was ranked ninth among all the small groups in the Inner Sect.

Li Yun had also heard of the Crimson Sun Society’s president, Chi Liuyang. His cultivation had reached the Half-Step Heavenly Core Realm, and he was ranked eighty-first on the Earth Ranking. He could be considered a figure of some reputation within the Inner Sect.

It was said that this person had an extremely domineering and conceited personality. He was also incredibly narrow-minded, and if anyone provoked him even slightly, he would use every possible method to retaliate.

However, Chi Liuyang was a top expert of the Inner Sect, while Su Fengyan and Li Hao were only ordinary Outer Sect Disciples. Under normal circumstances, there should have been no intersection between them.

”To be honest, this matter is somewhat related to you, Li Yun.”

Since the topic had already been brought up, Su Fengyan stopped hiding it. He gave a bitter smile and said, ”Ever since you and Shen Cang entered the Earth Ranking, our Southern Martial Domain suddenly became famous. Especially after some people listed you and Yan Wuhen as the two great rising stars of this era, Southern Martial Domain was pushed directly into the middle of the storm.”

”Regarding Yan Wuhen, many people are unconvinced, but they have nothing to say. Regarding you, however, too many people are dissatisfied. That dissatisfaction eventually turned into resentment toward everyone from Southern Martial Domain. During this period, it is not only us. All disciples in the sect who came from Southern Martial Domain have encountered quite a bit of trouble.”

”Actually, the two of us are still relatively fine. The one who encountered real trouble is Huang Chen.”

Su Fengyan smiled bitterly and continued, ”Huang Chen could not endure others trampling on your name, so he talked back. As a result, he was taken away by them.”
