Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

”You are overthinking it.”

Feng Wuyin smiled and said, ”I am considering your well-being. As long as you can pass the hundred-meter mark, you will not have to act as cannon fodder anymore. I only want you to be relieved sooner.”

Although he was smiling, that smile carried a sense of lofty arrogance, leaving no room for questioning or resistance.

”You!”

Zhu Ximen’s face was grim. He was furious at Feng Wuyin’s shamelessness.

To be able to turn forced threats into such high-sounding words, this Feng Wuyin was truly despicable.

”Let us go.”

Li Yun’s expression was calm, showing no dissatisfaction at all. He shook his head and whispered, ”Now is not the time to fall out with him.”

Li Yun kept his voice very low, audible only to Zhu Ximen. After speaking, he walked forward with a calm expression, seeming completely resigned to being cannon fodder.

”Alright.”

Behind Li Yun, Zhu Ximen’s expression flickered several times.

Finally, he suppressed the anger on his face and followed Li Yun forward.

If it were not for Li Yun, he would rather fight Feng Wuyin right now and die than be used as Feng Wuyin’s cannon fodder. But at this moment, he had to listen to Li Yun.

Swish!

Li Yun and Zhu Ximen had only taken a few steps when the sound of tearing air suddenly rang out.

Immediately, a white-robed man appeared before them, his face blank. Although he looked like a person, he lacked any aura of flesh and blood, clearly identical to the sword immortal puppet inside the Sword Mist Pagoda World.

The difference was that the sword immortal puppet inside the Sword Mist Pagoda World had only been equivalent to a cultivator of the Essence Qi Realm, while this particular sword immortal puppet possessed the strength of the Half-Step Heavenly Core Realm.

Whoosh!

The sword immortal puppet was expressionless. The moment it saw Li Yun, it ruthlessly swung its sword, sending fierce Sword Qi directly toward Li Yun’s heart.

In a flash of lightning, Li Yun’s figure shifted sharply sideways. Even so, the Sword Qi grazed his shoulder, instantly tearing a long and narrow cut into it.

With Li Yun’s strength, he could naturally have dodged that Sword Qi with ease. But in order to conceal his true power and lull Feng Wuyin and the others into a false sense of security, he had to act this way.

”Kid, it really seems you are suited for scouting.”

Behind Li Yun, Feng Wuyin struck out with a palm, shattering the sword immortal puppet into dust. He smiled and said, ”If this continues, perhaps it will not be long before we enter the core area of the underground palace.”

”Hurry up and continue forward.”

Although he spoke words of praise, it was clear that Feng Wuyin had no intention of stopping his deliberate targeting of Li Yun. He continued using him as cannon fodder.

Li Yun remained expressionless and merely walked forward obediently.

In the short distance of a few dozen meters, Li Yun and Zhu Ximen encountered over a dozen crises. Zhu Ximen nearly died many times. If not for Li Yun’s help, he would have died countless times already.

Even Li Yun himself encountered one genuine death crisis and nearly fell to an ambush.

Yet, even though Li Yun and Zhu Ximen nearly died several times, Feng Wuyin had no intention of replacing them. Li Yun and Zhu Ximen also seemed resigned to their fate, showing no intent to resist.

After dozens of meters, nine stone pillars appeared before Li Yun and the others.

Each of the nine pillars was wide enough to require ten people to embrace it, and their surfaces were blank, containing nothing.

The nine pillars were connected together, subtly forming a formation that completely enveloped the path ahead. It was clearly impossible to bypass them.

”You two, go investigate these stone pillars.”

Feng Wuyin spoke.

He seemed to have grown accustomed to commanding Li Yun and Zhu Ximen. His tone sounded extremely natural, as if the two of them deserved to be his scouting cannon fodder.

Li Yun looked indifferently at Feng Wuyin, then walked forward. After a few steps, he entered the area enveloped by the nine stone pillars.

The next moment, a sudden change occurred.

Buzz!

Countless strange patterns suddenly appeared on the nine blank stone pillars at the same time. These patterns emitted brilliant light, and countless beams shot out, instantly enveloping everyone present.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The cultivators enveloped by the light beams instantly vanished from their spots. In just a few breaths, dozens of cultivators disappeared without a trace.

”What is going on?”

Feng Wuyin’s expression instantly changed.

Just then, a beam of light swept across, enveloping him, Li Yun, and Zhu Ximen.

In the next moment, the three of them appeared simultaneously in an empty space.

”What is this place?”

Feng Wuyin’s face was ugly.

He had never expected such a sudden turn of events. This underground palace actually contained a restriction capable of instantly teleporting everyone to different locations.

Now, things had become troublesome.

”You two, quickly split up and scout the path for me.”

He commanded with a cold face. But contrary to his expectations, after he finished speaking, both Li Yun and Zhu Ximen stood rooted to the spot, showing no intention of moving.

”What? Do you two want to die?”

His expression immediately darkened.

”The one who wants to die is probably you, is it not?”

Li Yun’s expression was indifferent.

At this point, only he, Zhu Ximen, and Feng Wuyin remained. There was no longer any need for him to continue his disguise.

With a slight shake of his body, he instantly revealed his true appearance, and his aura returned to the 4th level of Earthly Core Realm.

”It is you?”

Feng Wuyin’s expression changed instantly. An incredulous light burst from his eyes as he cried out, ”Li Yun, it really is you.”

Although he had made some guesses before, Feng Wuyin himself had found the idea laughable. He had never expected Li Yun to actually appear before him.
