Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

”Indeed.”

”Brother Zi, please give us a reasonable explanation.”

As soon as the middle-aged man carrying the chilling saber finished speaking, many cultivators immediately echoed him. In the blink of an eye, more than twenty cultivators had voiced their opinions.

As for the remaining cultivators, although they said nothing, their eyes were fixed intently on Elder Zi Canglan. Clearly, they were waiting for him to give them an explanation.

”An explanation?”

Sensing the questioning gazes of the crowd, Elder Zi Canglan sneered. ”Fine. Since all of you want an explanation, I will give you one.”

”This young man I brought is named Li Yun. Back when he was only at the Half-Step Earthly Core Realm, he was listed on the Earth Ranking by the Heaven Secret Tower, and he even entered the top hundred. Is this reason enough?”

”Now, he is not even twenty-one years old, but he has already reached the 7th level of Earthly Core Realm. Furthermore, he has mastered two Xiantian Stage Sword Intents. Is this reason enough?”

”Not long ago, he fought against the Ochre-Robed Holy Envoy under Yan Wuhen and forcefully killed four spider puppets at the 9th level of Heavenly Core Realm. Is this reason enough?”

Elder Zi Canglan’s voice was loud and clear.

With every sentence he spoke, looks of shock appeared on the faces of those around him. By the time he finished speaking, everyone present looked horrified, unable to utter a single word.

Mu Tianhe, in particular, was dumbstruck. For a moment, he completely lost the majesty and composure of a sect master.

Others might not have known what Xiantian Stage Sword Intent implied, but as the sect master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, he naturally knew just how terrifying it was.

Even including Li Yun, among all the true disciples of the entire Heavenly Sword Sect, those whose Sword Intent had reached the fifth stage numbered no more than five.

Even Qin Yuehan, the first true disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the person ranked fourth on the Heaven Ranking, only possessed thirty percent Xiantian Stage Sword Intent.

Yet Qin Yuehan was at the 9th level of Heavenly Core Realm, while Li Yun was only at the 7th level of Earthly Core Realm.

For Li Yun to refine his Sword Intent to such a degree at this cultivation level was no longer merely unbelievable. It was simply a miracle.

Aside from Mu Tianhe, the many other powerful experts present were also shocked beyond measure.

The other feats were already impressive, but for Li Yun, a cultivator at the 7th level of Earthly Core Realm, to kill four spider puppets at the 9th level of Heavenly Core Realm gave them the most direct and visceral shock.

”Wait.”

Suddenly, someone in the crowd spoke up. ”Elder Zi Canglan, all of this is only your side of the story. How do we know whether what you are saying is true?”

”Indeed.”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately agreed. ”I also know of that Ochre-Robed Holy Envoy. His spider puppets cannot even be killed by an ordinary 9th level Heavenly Core Realm expert. How could Li Yun, a mere cultivator at the 7th level of Earthly Core Realm, possibly do it?”

With one person speaking, more followed.

In an instant, over a dozen cultivators voiced their doubts at the same time.

It was not that they refused to trust Elder Zi Canglan. Rather, what he had said was too unbelievable. Naturally, an ordinary person would find it impossible to accept so easily.

”Enough.”

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man carrying the chilling saber suddenly darkened his expression and said, ”Brother Zi is a dignified Spirit Manifestation Realm expert. Would he really need to deceive us? Regardless of what others think, I believe Brother Zi’s words.”

As he spoke, he actually cupped his fists toward Elder Zi Canglan and said in a heavy voice, ”It was my fault for questioning Brother Zi just now. I apologize to you here.”

”Sect Master Dao, you are too kind.”

Elder Zi Canglan shook his head with a calm expression, clearly not taking the matter to heart.

Not far away, Li Yun also nodded inwardly. He felt no ill will toward this middle-aged man.

By now, he had already guessed that this middle-aged man carrying the chilling saber was the sect master of the Heaven Severing Blade School. For a sect master to take the initiative to admit his mistake showed that he was an exceptionally rare and magnanimous person.

”Alright. I also know a bit about this Li Yun.”

Just then, the monk wearing simple Buddhist robes next to Mu Tianhe also spoke. ”This boy’s talent is indeed extraordinary. For today’s gathering, I think we should let him stay.”

”Li Yun indeed has the qualification.”

Mu Tianhe also spoke up.

If a peerless genius who could reach Xiantian Stage Sword Intent at the 7th level of Earthly Core Realm did not have the qualification to stay here, then no one else did.

”Since the three of you have agreed, then let it be settled.”

The kind-looking green-robed old man also nodded.

His aura was peaceful like a green pine. He was indeed the sect master of the Origin Saint Sect.

Seeing that the sect masters of the four great sects had all agreed, even though some others were still unconvinced, they could only suppress their dissatisfaction and nod in agreement.

”Alright. Since everyone has arrived, I will now announce the purpose of summoning all of you here today.”

The green-robed old man swept his gaze around and said, ”According to reliable intelligence, the sect master of the Ironblood Sect has completely recovered and is already on his way to the Annihilation Battlefield. Once he arrives, it will be time for the final battle between our four great sects and the Ironblood Sect.”

”However, to be honest, we have no certainty of victory against the Ironblood Sect. To avoid total annihilation and to preserve the sparks of our sects’ legacies, the four sect masters and the grand elders have jointly decided to send away all elite disciples of the four great sects.”

”What?”

”This...”

The green-robed old man’s words greatly shocked everyone.

Aside from the few who already knew, everyone else could not help revealing expressions of extreme shock.

Li Yun’s heart also jolted.

For the four great sects to take the initiative to evacuate their elite disciples showed just how dire the current situation had become.
