Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

”Li Yun, I came here this time to apologize to you.”

Princess Yuehan did not mind Li Yun’s attitude. A smile appeared on her face as she said, ”Back in the Chaos Flame Secret Realm, I once had thoughts of using you. For that matter, my Moonveil Ancient Kingdom is willing to compensate you with one million high-grade spirit stones as an apology.”

As she spoke, Princess Yuehan waved her delicate hand, and a storage ring appeared.

”One million high-grade spirit stones?”

Li Yun raised an eyebrow, but he did not take the storage ring. Instead, he said indifferently, ”I will not accept a reward I have not earned. There is not much enmity between us, yet you are offering so many spirit stones over a small matter. I suspect that your true purpose is not merely to apologize.”

”Li Yun, you are indeed a clever man.”

Princess Yuehan smiled and said, ”One million high-grade spirit stones is only a small greeting gift. If you are willing to join the camp of the Moonveil Ancient Kingdom, I can personally guarantee that you will immediately receive thirty million high-grade spirit stones. Furthermore, until you reach the Heavenly Core Realm, my Moonveil Ancient Kingdom is willing to provide all the cultivation resources you require.”

”Besides that, as long as you are willing, one of the grand elders of our Moonveil Ancient Kingdom, an expert at the ninth heaven of the Heavenly Core Realm, can also provide you with guidance at any time.”

After saying this, a look of absolute confidence appeared on Princess Yuehan’s face as she looked at Li Yun. She clearly believed that her offer was enough to ensure success.

Seeing Princess Yuehan like this, Li Yun remained expressionless on the outside, but he chuckled inwardly.

It had to be said that the conditions Princess Yuehan offered were indeed extremely tempting.

Thirty million high-grade spirit stones, all cultivation resources before the Heavenly Core Realm, and even guidance from an expert at the sixth heaven of the Heavenly Core Realm. If it were anyone else, they would probably be ecstatic and unable to wait before agreeing.

Unfortunately, no matter how tempting the conditions were, Li Yun had no intention of accepting.

The Moonveil Ancient Kingdom was, after all, an enormous power with complex internal relationships and no shortage of external enemies. Once one entered such a force, they would likely lose control over their own fate and have little freedom from then on.

Li Yun pursued the peak of the martial path, so he naturally would not tie himself to the Moonveil Ancient Kingdom.

Most importantly, Li Yun understood very well that the real reason the Moonveil Ancient Kingdom was willing to pay such a high price to recruit him was not truly because they valued his potential. Perhaps that was part of it, but it was definitely only a minor factor.

Their true purpose was nothing more than assuming that Li Yun had an extraordinary relationship with the Starveil Maiden. They wanted to use him to curry favor with her and establish a connection with a Spirit Manifestation Realm powerhouse.

Unfortunately, they could never have imagined that there was actually no deep relationship between Li Yun and the Starveil Maiden.

The Starveil Maiden herself had already left the Azure Void Region.

Their wishful thinking was destined to come to nothing.

Thinking of this, Li Yun shook his head and said indifferently, ”Princess Yuehan, I appreciate your kindness. However, I am used to being free, and I have never liked being restrained by others. I am afraid I cannot agree to join the Moonveil Ancient Kingdom.”

”What?”

Upon hearing Li Yun’s words, the confident smile on Princess Yuehan’s face instantly froze.

Her face filled with shock as she stared at Li Yun in disbelief, almost unable to believe what she had just heard.

He had refused.

Faced with such generous conditions, Li Yun had actually refused.

One had to understand that the terms she had just offered would have made even the elite among Inner Sect Disciples, let alone an Outer Sect Disciple, feel ecstatic and agree without hesitation. Yet Li Yun had refused so calmly, as though those conditions were not worth considering at all.

Princess Yuehan was truly shocked. She could not imagine how Li Yun could reject such an enticing offer without the slightest hesitation.

”Alright, Princess Yuehan. Take back these one million high-grade spirit stones. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave.”

Li Yun paid no attention to Princess Yuehan’s feelings. With a faint smile, he simply turned and walked away.

A short while later, he gathered with Su Fengyan, Huang Chen, and Li Hao.

Su Fengyan and the other two had not met the requirements to enter the Chaos Heaven Secret Realm, but during this period, their strength had also improved significantly.

Among the three, Su Fengyan, who possessed the highest aptitude, had already cultivated to the 6th level of Mortal Core Realm. Li Hao and Huang Chen had also reached the 3rd and 4th levels of Mortal Core Realm respectively, and both of them could easily defeat ordinary opponents at the same level.

It could be said that the three of them had successfully established their footing in the Outer Sect.

”Li Yun, it has only been a few months, yet I never imagined you would reach such a level.”

Su Fengyan looked at Li Yun with a complicated expression and could not help sighing. ”I heard that inside the Chaos Heaven Secret Realm, you killed several of the top ten Outer Sect experts and even slew Crown Prince Xing Tian. Not only that, you also killed Bai Yichen, an Inner Sect Disciple at the 1st level of the Earthly Core Realm. Your progress is simply too fast.”

”And here I thought my talent was already quite remarkable.”

Li Hao gave a bitter smile and said, ”During the Hidden Dragon Tournament, the gap between us was not that large. But in the blink of an eye, I can only look up to you now.”

One step ahead often meant remaining ahead.

If Li Yun had not entered the Chaos Heaven Secret Realm, perhaps the gap between them would not have become so vast. However, that single step was enough to completely distance him from them.

Huang Chen’s emotions were also complicated. Once, he had treated Li Yun as a rival, but now, he realized that he could only look up to him.

Regardless, although Su Fengyan and the others envied Li Yun’s progress, they were even more genuinely happy for him.

After all, all of them came from the Southern Martial Domain. Within the Heavenly Sword Sect, they naturally formed a small faction of their own. The stronger Li Yun became, the more it benefited them as well.
