Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

A full six hundred and sixty-six precious swords, strengthened by the Flowing Cloud Formation Diagram, saw their power rise by more than sixty percent. With the ninefold amplification of Soul Suppressing Nine Strikes added on top, the might of the sword formation reached a truly horrifying level. Altogether, its power had nearly increased tenfold.

This was the strongest sword technique Li Yun currently possessed.

Countless strands of Sword Qi erupted at the same time, like a blazing sun bursting open and releasing endless rays of light. Six hundred and sixty-six swords swept through the air in a majestic formation, launching a fierce assault against the endless sea of evil spirits.

Explosions rang out one after another.

Large numbers of evil spirits were shredded apart by the dense Sword Qi, turning into black smoke before vanishing completely. However, the moment one group was destroyed, even more evil spirits surged forward to fill the gap.

Their numbers were simply too vast.

Not far away, Jian Wuhen continued striking the Bone Drum without pause. Every strike released a strange and sinister drumbeat, and every drumbeat gave birth to even more evil spirits. They poured out of the Bone Drum like an endless black tide, overwhelming everything in their path.

”It is useless.”

Watching Li Yun control the sword formation, Jian Wuhen threw his head back and laughed loudly. ”Li Yun, this Bone Drum is a magic tool personally refined by the Hall Master of my Evil Spirit Hall. It contains an army of one hundred thousand evil spirits. No matter how strong you are, how long can you possibly last?”

His eyes turned cold and cruel.

”Today, no matter what, you are destined to die.”

”You want to kill me?”

Li Yun’s eyes were icy and sharp as he looked toward Jian Wuhen. His voice was calm, but it carried a chilling edge that made many people’s hearts tighten. ”With only these evil spirits, you are dreaming.”

As soon as those words fell, Li Yun gave a sharp cry. The light radiating from the sword formation expanded once more, and thousands upon thousands of strands of Sword Qi erupted with even greater ferocity. It was as though a great river of blades had descended upon the battlefield, slaughtering everything in its path.

In just a single instant, thousands of evil spirits were exterminated.

At the same time, Li Yun suddenly used the Shenxiao Step and charged directly into the endless swarm of evil spirits.

This scene instantly shocked everyone.

”What is he doing?”

”He actually charged straight into the evil spirit swarm?”

”Has Li Yun gone mad?”

The expressions of the surrounding cultivators changed dramatically. One had to understand that although Li Yun had already killed a huge number of evil spirits, the remaining evil spirits still numbered in the tens of thousands. Facing such a terrifying swarm, even the strongest among them would choose to defend from a distance. Yet Li Yun had done the exact opposite and rushed directly into the middle of the horde.

To them, this was no different from seeking death.

However, Li Yun paid no attention to their shock.

The six hundred and sixty-six precious swords suddenly split into three groups. One sword formation circled on his left, another guarded his right, and the last protected his rear. As for Li Yun himself, he held his sword in his hand and cut down the evil spirits in front of him one after another while charging straight toward Jian Wuhen.

”Li Yun, you are seeking death!”

Jian Wuhen’s expression changed, and he shouted angrily, ”Do you really think you can break through the obstruction of so many evil spirits and reach me by relying on yourself alone? That is nothing but a delusion.”

”Whether it is a delusion or not, you will know soon enough.”

Li Yun smiled coldly. The sword in his hand continuously released astonishing Sword Qi. Every strand of Sword Qi contained shocking power, enough to instantly kill an ordinary Half-Step Heavenly Core Realm expert. Under the slaughter of those fierce sword strikes, the evil spirits fell in large groups one after another.

Yet something even more astonishing gradually began to happen.

As more and more evil spirits were killed, the aura around Li Yun grew heavier and heavier. The killing intent contained within his sword became more condensed with every strike. At first, it was only a faint edge hidden inside the Sword Qi, but as the slaughter continued, that aura transformed rapidly. It became colder, denser, sharper, and more terrifying.

Soon, it was no longer merely a hidden aura.

It had become something tangible.

A low and clear sword hum suddenly rang out from Li Yun’s body.

Then, a crimson aura burst upward into the sky.

The entire battlefield froze for an instant.

A terrifying pressure swept out from Li Yun like a storm of blood and death. The Slaughter Sword Intent he had been accumulating through the endless massacre of evil spirits finally broke through its shackles and revealed its true form.

Xiantian Stage Slaughter Sword Intent.

Not only that, Li Yun had already reached twenty percent mastery within the Xiantian Stage.

The moment that Slaughter Sword Intent erupted, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically.

A wave of invisible crimson pressure spread across the battlefield in an instant. It was not merely powerful. It was terrifying to the point that everyone felt as though an ancient god of slaughter had opened his eyes in the middle of the battlefield.

Many cultivators watching from afar suddenly went pale.

Some felt their breathing become difficult, some felt their legs weaken against their will, and others felt as if their souls had been seized by an invisible hand.

Even though Li Yun was not targeting them directly, the mere aftershock of that Slaughter Sword Intent was enough to shake their martial hearts.

”What kind of Sword Intent is this?”

A cultivator in the distance spoke with a trembling voice. Cold sweat had already soaked his back.

”It is Xiantian Stage Sword Intent.”

Another person swallowed hard, his face pale with shock. ”And it is not ordinary Xiantian Stage Sword Intent. This aura and pressure mean he has already reached twenty percent mastery within the Xiantian Stage.”

”How is that possible?”

A cry of disbelief immediately followed.

”Li Yun is only this young. How could he have already comprehended Slaughter Sword Intent to such a level?”
