Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

”It is me! Great, it is me!”

At the same moment, on a small floating island not far from Li Yun, an ecstatic voice rang out. A middle-aged man around forty years old shouted with wild joy on his face, ”Hahaha! My luck has finally turned around. I, Zhao Hanlie, have finally received a chance.”

Amid his wild laughter, a beam of light descended. His figure flickered and directly appeared on the small floating island where Li Yun stood.

”What a pity.”

Seeing the middle-aged man’s ecstatic expression, many nearby cultivators revealed looks of regret.

A victory that looked almost handed over for free had fallen into this man’s lap. Such luck was truly enviable.

”Kid, thank you.”

The middle-aged man looked at Li Yun and laughed heartily. ”Originally, my token fragments had already been completely plundered twice in a row. If I failed again this time, I would be erased directly. Fortunately, heaven protected me and allowed me to run into you. I am definitely winning this battle.”

”Is that so?”

Li Yun shook his head and said calmly, ”I am afraid I will have to disappoint you.”

”Disappoint?”

The middle-aged man’s face instantly turned cold as he sneered. ”Kid, you had better lose obediently. Do not worry. Losing once will not kill you. Now get down.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man suddenly made his move.

A large hammer appeared in his hand. The hammer was over two meters long, and electric sparks flickered across its surface, producing a sizzling sound like a slithering snake. Then, he swung the hammer down toward Li Yun.

Crackle!

Electric light erupted, drawing a thunder snake through the air and setting a large area ablaze. Violent lightning power surged toward Li Yun and wrapped around him.

However, facing this move, Li Yun merely took a light step forward and casually swung his sword.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The sharp Sword Qi directly tore apart the thunder snake. Then, with a flash of Sword Light, even the large hammer was split in two, and the middle-aged man’s body was sent flying backward.

With just one sword strike, the middle-aged man was completely defeated.

Whoosh!

In the sky, a purple thunder pillar suddenly descended. The pillar contained extremely terrifying power, as if it could annihilate everything, and it instantly enveloped the middle-aged man.

”No! No!”

The middle-aged man’s expression changed drastically. Terror filled his face, and he screamed in despair. However, no matter how he struggled, he could not avoid that purple thunder pillar.

Boom!

The thunder pillar fell, and the middle-aged man’s body was completely obliterated, leaving not a single trace behind.

Watching this scene, Li Yun could not help shaking his head.

Since one had embarked on the path of cultivation, one had to be mentally prepared to pay with their life at any time. The middle-aged man’s strength was quite ordinary. Even if Li Yun had not defeated him, he would have been defeated by someone else sooner or later and would have met the same fate.

The Floating Island was a paradise and a sacred land for the strong, but for those whose strength was insufficient, it was undoubtedly the Underworld.

”This kid’s strength is actually this strong.”

”Although Zhao Hanlie was not much, he was still at the peak of Earthly Core Realm. To be killed with just one sword strike is truly unbelievable.”

”We misjudged him this time.”

Around them, the cultivators on the other small floating islands all changed their expressions. Their previously mocking looks suddenly turned grave.

Killing Zhao Hanlie with one sword strike was not enough to call Li Yun a top-tier expert on the Floating Island, but it was definitely enough to place him in the upper ranks of the first layer. This person, who had looked like a soft persimmon, was actually an extremely troublesome strong enemy.

For a moment, those who had regretted not being chosen to fight Li Yun all felt relieved.

Fortunately, they were not the ones selected to fight him. Otherwise, Zhao Hanlie would not have been the unlucky one. They would have been the ones obliterated instead.

But in the next moment, their expressions changed again.

They suddenly remembered that not long ago, they had also challenged Li Yun, and those challenge messages would remain for a full three days.

Fortunately, Li Yun did not plan to continue fighting immediately.

His gaze had already turned toward a small floating island not far away. On that island, Shen Cang was fighting another cultivator at the peak of Earthly Core Realm.

Shen Cang still looked as slovenly as ever. He held a large chicken leg in his hand, and his mouth was stuffed full. From a distance, he looked like a round and plump ball.

His opponent was a young man wearing clean white robes. This young man seemed to be obsessed with cleanliness. Seeing Shen Cang in such a messy state, he immediately frowned, looking extremely displeased.

”You slovenly commoner, get lost.”

He roared loudly and suddenly activated a hand seal. In an instant, six flying swords shot out at the same time, using a method somewhat similar to Li Yun’s Soul Sword Control Art.

However, compared to Li Yun’s Soul Sword Control Art, his technique was clearly much weaker. He could only control six flying swords, and his control was not very skillful, leaving many flaws.

Even so, the lethality of these six flying swords was still quite impressive. It had already approached the Half-Step Heavenly Core Realm level.

”Mumble, mumble...”

Shen Cang mumbled something unclear through his full mouth. He casually threw out a blank scroll, and the scroll unfurled in the air, emitting a strange glow that enveloped the six flying swords. Then, those six flying swords simply disappeared.

When everyone looked again, the six flying swords had appeared on the scroll, as if they had been imprinted onto it.

”Bastard, give me back my flying swords.”

The white-robed youth’s eyes instantly turned red. He roared and was about to charge forward, but at that moment, Shen Cang casually tossed out a pitch-black sphere.

The sphere flew out with a sharp whoosh.

Then, the pitch-black sphere rapidly expanded, growing to about ten zhang in diameter in an instant. With a fierce collision, it directly sent the white-robed youth flying.

This battle was easily won by Shen Cang.

”This fellow Shen Cang is improving quickly.”

Not far away, Li Yun nodded to himself.

Although Shen Cang’s combat power largely depended on the various spiritual artifacts in his hands, unless he encountered opponents far stronger than him or those skilled in soul techniques, he could basically win.

Within this Floating Island, Shen Cang might not be able to reach the highest layers, but at the very least, he could definitely protect himself.

Feeling reassured about Shen Cang, Li Yun began proceeding with his own battles.

Whoosh!

This time, he appeared on another person’s small floating island.

That person was a one-armed burly man, and his cultivation had reached the peak of Earthly Core Realm.

Despite having only one arm, this one-armed burly man’s strength was much greater than Zhao Hanlie’s. He was already very close to the Half-Step Heavenly Core Realm level.

However, with just one sword strike, Li Yun easily defeated him.

After that came the third battle, the fourth battle, the fifth battle, and then all the way to the eighth battle.

In every battle, Li Yun achieved victory with ease.
