Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

Whoosh!

In the next moment, the Hungry Ghost King’s corpse transformed into a burst of green mist that merged into Li Yun’s body.

Under the influence of this green mist, Li Yun felt his chaos qi rapidly increasing.

In the blink of an eye, the strength of his chaos qi rose from just entering the early stage of the 8th level of Earthly Core Realm to the peak of the 8th level of Earthly Core Realm.

’As expected, my guess was correct.’

A bright light flashed in Li Yun’s eyes.

Indeed, for each of the six trials in the Six Paths Pagoda, passing a level would grant an opportunity.

Without this green mist, it would have taken him at least an entire month to reach the peak of the 8th level of Earthly Core Realm. This had saved him a month of time.

”I wonder what kind of opponent will appear in the next Beast Path.”

With a thought, Li Yun stepped into the formation once more.

His vision blurred, and he appeared within a massive mountain range.

This mountain range was completely scorched black, as if it had suffered some kind of catastrophe. There was not the slightest sign of life.

Screech!

Suddenly, a cry like a resonant bell rang out.

Then, a colossal body flew out from the depths of the mountain range. Its size was so immense that it covered half the sky.

That behemoth was unexpectedly a Golden-Winged Great Peng.

Its body stretched nearly a thousand meters long, and its pair of wings, spanning several hundred meters, were covered in strange golden patterns that shimmered with mystical luster.

”Golden-Winged Great Peng.”

Li Yun’s expression became solemn.

Clearly, the Golden-Winged Great Peng before him was not a pure-blooded Golden-Winged Great Peng. If it were a true pure-blood, it would be a terrifying existence comparable to a human at the King Conferment Realm at the very least.

This Golden-Winged Great Peng obviously only possessed a trace of the Golden-Winged Great Peng bloodline.

But even so, its strength was absolutely terrifying. The aura it emitted was much more powerful than that of the Hungry Ghost King.

Screech!

With a long cry, the Golden-Winged Great Peng immediately sensed Li Yun’s presence. A cold light flickered in its indifferent pupils as it suddenly flapped its massive wings, sending a hurricane sweeping toward Li Yun.

Whoosh!

This hurricane was incredibly violent.

Although it could not compare to the Magnetic Storm Extreme Wind, an ordinary 8th level Heavenly Core Realm cultivator would likely be shredded to pieces instantly if caught in it.

”Aurora Step.”

Li Yun’s figure blurred as he dodged the hurricane’s reach.

Where he had stood, the hurricane descended, churning the area within dozens of meters into nothingness and leaving nothing behind.

Screech!

Seeing its strike miss, the Golden-Winged Great Peng let out an angry cry and suddenly spat out a bolt of lightning.

The lightning contained startling energy as it crashed down toward Li Yun.

Bang!

Li Yun shifted his position again.

Where the lightning struck, a giant pit several meters deep appeared, surrounded by scorched earth. This showed how terrifying the power of the lightning was.

”This Golden-Winged Great Peng is indeed difficult to deal with.”

Li Yun frowned slightly.

The power of wind and thunder was precisely the innate divine ability of the Golden-Winged Great Peng. Although this Golden-Winged Great Peng only had a trace of the bloodline, it could still control the power of wind and thunder.

Furthermore, since this Golden-Winged Great Peng could control lightning, it naturally had a very strong immunity to soul attack methods.

Defeating it the same way he had defeated the Hungry Ghost King was clearly impossible.

”I can only meet force with force.”

He suddenly soared up to the same height as the Golden-Winged Great Peng. His entire body was like an unsheathed precious sword, and his Sword Intent surged into the sky.

”Grand Profound Five Elements Sword.”

He swung his sword, and a strand of Sword Qi shimmering with five-colored luster erupted, striking the Golden-Winged Great Peng and leaving a shallow scar on its body.

In terms of attack power, this Golden-Winged Great Peng was clearly much stronger than the Hungry Ghost King. But in terms of defense, it was inferior.

Screech!

Being wounded by a sword strike, although the scar was far from fatal and could not even be called a minor injury, the Golden-Winged Great Peng was completely enraged.

It suddenly opened its mouth and let out a massive cry.

Violent winds howled out, and within that endless wind, thunderballs poured down. Each thunderball contained even more terrifying power than before.

Boom!

The violent winds and thunderballs smashed down toward Li Yun.

That terrifying fluctuation of power was like an apocalyptic catastrophe, instilling fear.

Clearly, dodging was useless against such an attack. No matter how he dodged, he could not escape its range. He could only meet it head-on and clash directly against the wind and lightning.

”Grand Profound Five Elements Sword.”

”Slow Sword.”

”Sword Control Art.”

Li Yun used all his sword arts.

At the same time, he also used his Slaughter Sword Intent at thirty percent mastery in the Xiantian Stage and his Immortal Sword Intent at twenty percent mastery. Under their enhancement, his power increased to three times his normal level.

Then, his three major finishing moves poured out at the same time, clashing violently with the sky full of wind and lightning.

Boom!

The two forces collided violently.

At this moment, looking down from high above, one could see a destructive wave spreading frantically in concentric circles, affecting the entire mountain range in an instant.

Rumble!

The massive mountain range shook violently.

Peaks were displaced, valleys were filled, and the entire mountain range was halved in height.

Bang!

Li Yun’s figure retreated a few steps before he stabilized himself.

From the Golden-Winged Great Peng’s attack methods, he felt an extremely familiar energy.

At first, he had not been sure, but through the collision just now, he completely confirmed his judgment.

This energy was the Five Elements energy.
