Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

”Oh, is this not Li Yun?”

Just then, Xiao Ziming spoke. He laughed loudly and said, ”I did not expect a fellow like you to actually reach the fourth floor. Well then, do you dare to accept my challenge?”

Buzz!

At the same time, Li Yun’s identity jade pendant lit up, displaying a message. It was Xiao Ziming’s challenge.

Li Yun’s expression remained calm. Without the slightest hesitation, he directly chose to refuse.

”Coward!”

Xiao Ziming immediately sneered coldly. ”Forget it. I already expected this outcome anyway. How would a waste like you dare to fight me?”

After saying this, Xiao Ziming lazily withdrew his gaze.

To be honest, by now, he had already lost all interest in Li Yun.

A complete waste like this was not worth his time. Even slapping him to death would be a waste of effort.

Li Yun paid no attention to him. Among the opponents challenging him, he randomly selected a relatively weak one and chose to accept the challenge.

It took a full half hour and more before Li Yun barely managed to defeat his opponent. Moreover, the entire battle was extremely perilous, and the final victory seemed to be a narrow one.

This battle completely extinguished any remaining interest the others had in Li Yun.

If defeating such an opponent was this difficult, then even if Li Yun managed to reach the fourth floor, he would only belong at the bottom. He might even be kicked back to the third floor before long.

Half a month later, Feng Qingxiao once again launched an assault on the sixth floor.

This time, she consecutively defeated eight opponents, even defeating Jian Wuhen. Unfortunately, she ultimately exhausted too much of her True Essence and failed in the final battle.

”What a pity. Feng Qingxiao was just a little short of breaking through to the sixth floor.”

”Feng Qingxiao is the real genius. Calling her a heaven-favored daughter would not be an exaggeration. In my opinion, listing Feng Qingxiao as a shining star of this era is far more reliable than listing Li Yun.”

”Who says otherwise? At first, we thought Li Yun was a genius and a prodigy. Now it seems he is just a waste. I really do not know how someone like him caught Heaven Secret Tower’s eye.”

”Alright, enough about that waste. What we should focus on now is whether Feng Qingxiao can break through to the sixth floor.”

”Difficult. Extremely difficult.”

Everyone’s gazes swept over Li Yun, who was sitting with his eyes closed in cultivation, and their eyes revealed intense disdain. Then, when they turned to Feng Qingxiao, the disdain in their eyes instantly transformed into admiration and respect.

As a woman, she could overshadow all the heroes and nearly achieve nine consecutive victories. Such performance was truly astonishing and made it impossible not to admire her.

’Finally succeeded.’

At the very moment everyone shifted their attention, Li Yun opened his eyes. A sharp gleam burst from his gaze, and at this moment, his entire aura had become completely different.

After a full month of cultivation, he had finally mastered the third strike of Soul Suppressing Nine Strikes. In other words, with Soul Suppressing Nine Strikes, he could now unleash a full nine times his power in battle.

Nine times the power.

What a terrifying concept.

With his current strength, among Half-Step Heavenly Core Realm cultivators, there were probably only a few who could withstand even a casual strike from him.

Even when facing a true 1st level Heavenly Core Realm expert, he still had the power to fight.

’After lying low and hiding for so long, it is time to show some of my strength.’

He stood up and looked toward Xiao Ziming not far away. A startling cold gleam burst from his eyes.

During this period of dedicated cultivation, Xiao Ziming had repeatedly provoked him. It was not that Li Yun had no temper. It was just that breaking through to the sixth floor of the Floating Island and obtaining the complete Soul Suppressing Nine Strikes mattered more to him. That was why he had endured until now.

But now, he had mastered Soul Suppressing Nine Strikes and had already achieved nine consecutive victories on the fourth floor. With just one more victory, he could challenge the fifth floor. It was time to settle accounts with the other party.

A tiger not showing its ferocity did not mean it would not bite.

”Challenge.”

He gave a cold laugh and directly issued a challenge to Xiao Ziming.

”Hm?”

At the same moment, Xiao Ziming’s identity jade pendant suddenly lit up.

Glancing at the message on the pendant, Xiao Ziming immediately showed an incredulous expression.

The one challenging him was actually Li Yun.

”This waste Li Yun actually dares to challenge me?”

His face was full of disbelief, and he could not help exclaiming aloud. His voice immediately drew everyone’s attention.

”What?”

”Li Yun actually challenged Xiao Ziming? Has he gone mad?”

”In my opinion, this kid finally lost his patience. After all, he is still young. Even if he is a coward, there must be a limit. But does he really think Xiao Ziming is someone a waste like him can defeat?”

”What an idiot. If he had kept cowering, I might have thought he had some self-awareness. But now it seems this guy is utterly hopeless, a complete fool.”

After a moment of stunned silence, everyone burst into laughter.

The sun must have risen from the west. This coward, Li Yun, actually had the guts to challenge Xiao Ziming.

Unfortunately, this challenge would probably be the final battle of his life.

”Good. Very good.”

After his shock faded, Xiao Ziming also laughed heartily. With one hand behind his back, he laughed loudly and said, ”Li Yun, you turtle, you finally dared to stick your head out of your shell. Since that is the case, I will make a little effort and slap you to death.”

”Die!”

With a wild laugh, he really did casually slap out, aiming straight for Li Yun’s face. He did not hide his killing intent in the slightest.

The surrounding cultivators also burst into laughter. This scene was indeed something they enjoyed watching.

Whoosh!

At that very moment, a Sword Light suddenly erupted.

That Sword Light was faster than lightning and more ferocious than thunder. Like a spark striking from flint, it howled forth in an instant.

It was like a beam of light piercing through the darkness of dawn.

It was like a ferocious sea monster surging from the ocean.

It was like a massive volcano suddenly erupting.

It was like a rainbow piercing the sun and a galaxy roaring across the sky.

This sword was dazzling to the extreme, blinding to the extreme, and fast to the extreme. Almost before anyone could react, that sword had already descended upon Xiao Ziming.

”This...”

Xiao Ziming’s entire body froze.

He wanted to struggle and move, but before this sword, his entire being seemed frozen. It was not only his body. Even his soul seemed locked in place. At this moment, he could not make any reaction at all.

All he could do was widen his eyes and watch with immense terror as that sword cleaved down right in front of him.

Ssshh!

The next moment, starting from the crown of his head, a line of blood rapidly extended downward.

Then, his entire body exploded apart, directly split in two by this sword.

With just one sword, Xiao Ziming, who ranked twelfth on the Earth Ranking, was slain in a single strike.

He was dead beyond doubt.
