Chunibyo in Cultivation World

“Run?”

As cultivators of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, Miaohua and the other two had never once retreated or felt fear, even when facing the constant pressure of the heavens or the Ascension Tribulation hanging above their heads.

They had truly never imagined that there would come a day when, facing someone at the Nascent Soul Realm, they would be reduced to the point of needing to flee.

Yet once they thought of Li Tianwei’s bizarre abilities, of those methods that devoured their power, running away no longer seemed like such a terrible option. How was one even supposed to fight this thing? It was more troublesome than Evil Demons.

At the very least, Evil Demons still allowed for the possibility of resistance, but Li Tianwei?

He was simply impossible to fight. Any method that landed on him was rendered ineffective, even though deep down they still clung to the thought that perhaps it was only because their own power was insufficient.

But now, this was the combined assault of three Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators. If they still wanted to probe where Li Tianwei’s limits lay, then even more powerful figures would be required.

Yet cultivators of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm were not cabbages. Across the Three Sacred Lands, there were only nine in total. They had already dispatched one-third of their number and still could not take down Li Tianwei. Could it be that they truly had to mobilize everyone?

And just as they were pondering how to deal with Li Tianwei,

Miaohua and the other two seemed to sense something and suddenly raised their heads, looking toward the distance.

They saw that above the horizon, a twisted fluctuation carrying the power to sever all restraints of the world crossed heaven and earth, rapidly approaching at an incalculable speed.

Evil aura that blotted out the sky and covered the sun surged forth, all kinds of killing intent shrouding the area, as if a great demon were descending.

For a moment, such a drastic anomaly immediately drew the attention of many.

“What’s going on? This aura—it’s a Demonic Cultivator, an unparalleled great demon.”

Sensing this presence, the powerful cultivators of the Three Sacred Lands all keenly felt that something was wrong.

Before they could make a judgment, a mass of black shadow carrying dense filthy resentful aura enveloped half the sky above the Sacred Land of Lingxu, and a voice rang out from the air.

“Jie jie jie jie…”

“Hahahaha, so even the Sacred Land of Lingxu has come to this day!”

A lazy voice echoed through the skies above the Sacred Land of Lingxu, like demonic soundwaves, making people feel extremely uncomfortable.

Many cultivators could not help but clutch their ears, casting techniques to resist the influence.

Very soon, three figures appeared out of thin air above the Sacred Land of Lingxu. Leading them was Ancestor Xutian of the Sacred Land of Baiyuan, his face like aged tree bark, yet still barely resembling a human.

As for the remaining two, they were exceedingly bizarre. One was fat like a ball, while the other was a tiny dwarf barely half a meter tall. Their entire bodies overflowed with wickedness, such that merely standing there caused one’s mind and spirit to tremble.

Upon seeing the appearances of those three, the pupils of Miaohua and the other two could not help but shrink.

“Ancestor Xutian, the Heartless Old Demon of the Kun Demon Cult, and the Elder Kongxuan of the Heaven-Demon Cult.”

Compared to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators of the Three Sacred Lands, the degree of distortion on the bodies of those from the Demonic Sect Territory, as well as the state of their Heavenly Tribulations, differed vastly.

But this was also normal. Due to the nature of demonic cultivators themselves—rapid cultivation speed and utter disregard for means—when they reached the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, the pressure they faced was far greater than that of the righteous path.

This even led to defects in their personalities, and their bodies were likewise influenced by the methods they cultivated.

The Heartless Old Demon of the Kun Demon Cult had seized people’s hearts since childhood to cultivate, devouring bone marrow. As a result, after reaching the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, his body transformed from its original shape into something fat as a ball.

Human in form, yet no longer human.

As for the Elder Kongxuan of the Heaven-Demon Cult, he favored unborn infants, refining that mouthful of innate qi. Thus, after reaching the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, his physique began to revert to infancy, completely degenerating into a grotesque, deformed childlike figure.

It was precisely because of this that the tempering they endured at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm was dozens of times more severe than that of normal cultivators.

When the Sacred Lord of Lingxu saw Ancestor Xutian and the others arrive, his scalp immediately went numb.

He had truly never expected that the Three Sacred Lands would be so ruthless. In order to completely eradicate the Sacred Land of Lingxu, they actually joined forces with demonic cultivators.

“Six Tribulation Transcendence cultivators…”

The Sacred Lord of Lingxu could not help but feel his teeth chatter.

Even Jiang Tiancheng and the others, upon seeing Ancestor Xutian and his group, deeply furrowed their brows.

In their view, this meant that yet another faction had joined in, and once the Sacred Land of Lingxu was taken, the benefits they would receive would have to be shared out further.

Though displeased, Jiang Tiancheng did not dare to say a word.

As for Li Tianwei, who was the target, he also raised his head and looked toward Ancestor Xutian and the others newly arrived in midair.

“How truly filthy.”

Upon seeing the three of them, Li Tianwei could not help but frown.

Because on these three, Li Tianwei saw incomparably heavy sins. They were the most twisted and most aberrant beings he had encountered since arriving in this world.

Evil thoughts enveloped them, lingering remnant souls clinging around their bodies, and the mournful cries transmitted from them at all times.

At this moment, Li Tianwei only wanted to thoroughly wash them clean. Otherwise, the world itself would become defiled.

Feeling the impulse surging within his heart, Li Tianwei no longer even had the desire to use these Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators to cultivate and raise his cultivation.

“So much sin.”

Li Tianwei could not help but sigh, his eyes surging with dense killing intent.

Along with this, the aura around Li Tianwei changed. The stars upon the Void Emptiness Manifestation behind him lit up once more.

This time, however, the light carried traces of crimson, and even the entire Sacred Land of Lingxu gained an indescribable atmosphere.

It was as if something were pressing against the heart, so oppressive that one could scarcely breathe.

The terrifying Manifestation on Li Tianwei’s body was revealed, immediately drawing the attention of both the Heartless Old Demon and the Elder Kongxuan.

“So this is that Heaven-Defying Genius?”

“He’s truly comprehended thousands of Dao Intents. How was this even achieved?”

The Heartless Old Demon greedily stared at Li Tianwei. On that face squeezed together by fat, two eyes opened into thin slits, making him look somewhat comical.

“If I swallow him, with his fortune and talent, helping me ascend or restore my original appearance would be effortless.”

Desire and greed surged. The Elder Kongxuan’s deformed half-meter-tall body could no longer restrain itself and began drifting toward him.

As for Ancestor Xutian, his expression remained solemn. His attention fell instead on the three figures on the ground in the distance.

They were precisely the three Tribulation Transcendence ancestors of the Sacred Land of Lingxu whom Li Tianwei had cast down earlier.

In comparison, Miaohua and the other two, who had originally planned to flee when facing Li Tianwei, completely suppressed that intention after Ancestor Xutian and his group arrived.

As for the stories surrounding Ancestor Xutian, nearly all of the powerful figures of the Three Sacred Lands were familiar with them.

An undercover agent who had risen all the way to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm and even become a Sacred Land ancestor was inevitably a topic of conversation.

Thus, in their view, Ancestor Xutian’s arrival here was likely also to assist them in eradicating the Sacred Land of Lingxu.

Miaohua and the other two had already secretly transmitted messages to them, informing them of Li Tianwei’s bizarre situation.

“He can absorb our power?”

Ancestor Xutian looked at Li Tianwei and could not help but think so.
