Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

”This Xiao Ziming is simply too arrogant.”

Also on the third floor, Shen Cang looked at Xiao Ziming with a face full of indignation and resentment.

If Xiao Ziming had only mocked Li Yun a few times, that would have been one thing. However, this fellow was like a rabid dog that had locked onto Li Yun and refused to let go. His overbearing attitude was more than Shen Cang could bear to watch.

Thinking of this, Shen Cang could not help looking at Li Yun in confusion.

He had some understanding of Li Yun’s personality, and he knew Li Yun was definitely not a cowardly or timid person. Yet, in the face of Xiao Ziming’s repeated provocations, Li Yun had retreated again and again without the slightest reaction. What exactly was going on?

Furthermore, with Li Yun’s strength, how could he still be lingering on the third floor of the Floating Island at this point? How could he have collected only five token fragments?

One had to know that even Shen Cang himself had already obtained nine token fragments. With just one more victory, he would be able to enter the fourth floor of the Floating Island.

’Could it be that this fellow Li Yun has some kind of plan?’

A thought suddenly flashed through Shen Cang’s mind, and once it appeared, it spread wildly like bamboo shoots after rain.

He had a premonition that before long, Li Yun would surely give everyone a massive surprise.

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

Shen Cang had successfully ascended to the fourth floor of the Floating Island, and on this day, Li Yun also successfully defeated his sixth opponent.

In this battle, Li Yun was still hiding his strength. He took nearly half an hour to defeat his opponent.

”Trash will always be trash.”

Xiao Ziming’s face was gloomy as he looked down at Li Yun and let out a disdainful sound.

At this moment, his mood was extremely foul.

Originally, he had already achieved a nine-win streak on the fourth floor. With just one more victory, he would have been qualified to challenge the fifth floor. Even if he failed that challenge, he still could have obtained a precious treasure from the Treasure Hall.

Who would have known that at such a time, he would run into several top-ranked opponents from the Earth Ranking in succession? He suffered three straight losses, leaving him with only six token fragments.

The reward that had almost been in his grasp had flown away, which naturally made his mood terrible. However, when he saw Li Yun, for some reason, his mood became cheerful again.

He looked down at Li Yun from above and said indifferently, ”Not long ago, I said you had made some progress, but now you have regressed so badly. It seems you are even worse than a pig.”

”It seems impossible to count on trash like you to step onto the fourth floor. What a pity. I originally wanted to slap you to death myself. Oh well, consider it your good luck.”

Xiao Ziming’s voice reached Li Yun’s ears without the slightest concealment. Li Yun’s brow twitched slightly, but he still did not say a word and continued cultivating.

He had already found the threshold of the third strike of Soul Suppressing Nine Strikes. Although he was still quite a distance from truly mastering it, since he had found the direction, the rest was only a matter of time.

Furthermore, during this period, he was not only practicing Soul Suppressing Nine Strikes. He had not neglected his other aspects either.

His Sword Intent was about to reach twenty percent in the Xiantian Stage, and his mastery of various sword techniques had also improved. Compared to when he first entered the Floating Island, his overall strength had increased by a significant margin.

In his eyes, Xiao Ziming was nothing more than a clown. He simply did not need to waste his attention on such a person.

Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, half a month went by.

During these two weeks, battles occurred constantly on the Floating Island. In particular, the ten small floating islands on the fifth floor saw their masters change frequently.

Except for the top three geniuses of the Earth Ranking, Feng Qingxiao, Jian Wuhen, and Wang Chen, along with two loose cultivators, the other five spots were in constant flux. These five firmly held their positions, while the remaining five seats changed hands again and again.

Even Ye Qingmu, who ranked fourth on the Earth Ranking, had been pushed out once.

During this half month, many cultivators broke through to the Heavenly Core Realm, but most of them were from small and medium-sized factions, or they were loose cultivators who were already quite old.

Cultivators like Feng Qingxiao and Jian Wuhen, who occupied the top ranks of the Earth Ranking, had not broken through even once. This was not because they could not break through, but because they were intentionally suppressing their cultivation.

Once they broke through to the Heavenly Core Realm, they would be teleported out of the Floating Island and lose the qualifications to challenge the sixth floor.

Feng Qingxiao had once tried to challenge the sixth floor, but unfortunately, after winning seven consecutive battles, her True Essence had been exhausted, and she had no choice but to give up.

Jian Wuhen had also tried, but he did not even make it past Feng Qingxiao’s level, let alone win nine battles in a row.

As for Li Yun, who had initially been the focus of everyone’s attention, he was now almost ignored. Even Xiao Ziming had stopped paying attention to him.

Under these circumstances, Li Yun finally gathered ten token fragments.

Swoosh!

His figure appeared within the Treasure Hall.

”Big brother, what has been wrong with you lately?”

The red-bellyband child looked puzzled and asked in confusion, ”With your strength, even challenging the fifth floor would not be a problem. Why did you stay on the third floor for so long?”

”Hehe.”

Li Yun smiled slightly without explaining much and began searching through the Treasure Hall.

However, this time, there were not many treasures in the Treasure Hall that particularly tempted him. In the end, he chose a sword formation composed of three hundred and ten low-grade Heaven Rank precious swords.

With this, the number of low-grade Heaven Rank precious swords in his possession reached exactly six hundred and sixty-six.

In the next moment, he appeared on the fourth floor of the Floating Island.

”Hm? This Li Yun has actually stepped onto the fourth floor of the Floating Island?”

”He managed to charge up to the fourth floor too?”

Li Yun’s sudden appearance took many people by surprise.

Half a month could be considered a long time on the Floating Island. Such a duration was enough for them to almost completely forget Li Yun’s existence. Some people had even stopped remembering that such a person was still around.

Seeing Li Yun suddenly appear now caused a wave of surprise in their hearts, but that surprise lasted only for a moment.

”Taking this long to reach the fourth floor, even if Li Yun has made it, he will not be able to cause any waves.”

”True. Since the Floating Island opened, those with real strength have long since reached the fourth floor. Those left on the third floor were all useless trash. It seems Li Yun only reached the fourth floor because of luck.”

”His arrival just gives us one more person to farm for points. That is actually a good thing.”

Everyone spoke one after another, and many of them even laughed cheerfully.
