I Don’t Want to Get Hurt, So I’ll Max Out My Defense

Chapter 829: Chapter 830: New Gourd: Fellow Daoist, Please Stay
 

Li Xiaobai flicked his wrist, pulling out several pieces of green Firecracker Thunderclaps. These explosives weren’t very powerful by themselves, but it depended on where they were used. At that moment, several disciples in the Heavenly Immortal Realm were in secluded cultivation, extremely averse to disturbances. A small explosion could cause them significant trauma.

As expected, when they saw more pieces of bamboo in his hand, the figures hidden in the mist suddenly spoke in a much heavier tone.

“Do you still intend to attack us?”

“A mere ant, just entered the Earth Immortal Realm, also dares to attack heaven?”

“It seems you have not taken our words to heart, utterly lacking any respect for one’s elders and betters.”

“Cut off an arm, kneel down and apologize. In light of the Sect Master’s face, I can pretend today’s incident never happened.”

Mei Liangxin said indifferently, his words carrying a dangerous undertone.

If it were someone else here, they might have been intimidated, but unfortunately for them, this was Li Xiaobai. He was not afraid of a group who were in the middle of secluded cultivation and unable to move, even if their cultivation levels were in the Heavenly Immortal Realm. He wouldn’t indulge their rotten behavior!

“It seems that my brothers are so used to being above that they haven’t realized the seriousness of the situation.”

“Go you!”

Li Xiaobai then threw several Firecracker Thunderclaps directly ahead of him and summoned a Lamborghini, turning into a mesmerizing blue streak pulling a long string of sparks and disappearing on the spot.

Seconds later, a thunderous boom sounded, the ground shook, and flames soared behind him, the terrifying aura rampaging.

The impact from the Firecracker Thunderclaps wasn’t enough to harm the cultivators at the Heavenly Immortal Realm, but the surrounding Sword Intent could. Even a momentary mental lapse could allow the Sword Intent to invade.

“I’ll be damned…”

“Li Xiaobai, you dare insult me, you are dead!”

“There will be no place for you in Sword Sect!”

“What kind of fireworks are these, shaking my mind, making it unbearable for Sword Intent!”

“Don’t talk, hold your breath and focus, quickly defend against the erosion of the Sword Intent. Sword Tomb is about to open, we must not be injured here!”

Several Heavenly Immortal Realm disciples roared furiously, wishing they could immediately tear Li Xiaobai to pieces, but being unable to leave their spot, they could only bellow to vent their anger.

They were the top experts of the Sword Sect, whose strength and cultivation were second only to the elders, the real pillars of the sect. Even the Sect Master usually greeted them with a smile. When had they ever suffered such humiliation?

A mere disciple who had just entered the Earth Immortal Realm dared to challenge them, did he really think he was the Saint Heir of some major power?

“Since the Sect Master holds this person in high regard, he is likely to participate in the journey to the Sword Tomb. We will meet him then and make him pay a painful price!”

…

As Li Xiaobai heard the explosions and cries of alarm behind him, he grinned, a real man never looks back at explosions. These high and mighty individuals always failed to see the situation clearly. Even though they were in secluded cultivation needing quiet, they still dared to provoke him.

The Lamborghini sped along, and under the fierce attack of the Sword Intent, predictably disintegrated again, transforming into a streak of flame racing along Sword Peak, then exploding with a loud bang.

A figure shot out, spinning three and a half turns in the air, executing a “Smooth Sand Falling Wild Goose” move, face down, hit the ground creating a long trench, then patted the dust off his body as if nothing had happened and continued walking away.

In an area of about two hundred steps, all the Earth Immortal Realm disciples stared wide-eyed at the scene before them.

What had they just seen? Explosions and angry bellows had come from the depths of Sword Peak. It was hard to imagine what outrageous acts Li Xiaobai had committed inside.

“I must be hearing things, that long cry and those roars from the depths of Sword Peak, those must be from several Heavenly Immortal Realm brothers, right?”

“Don’t doubt it. My eldest brother from the Eleventh Peak is in there. I heard that several Human Immortal Realm brothers from our sect entered the deep parts of Sword Peak over half a year ago, continuously comprehending the Great Dao in hopes of realizing a second Sword Intent.”

“That demon head must have disturbed them, otherwise my fellow disciples would definitely not be so angry!”

“He has just ascended to the Earth Immortal Realm, yet dares to provoke a brother in the Heavenly Immortal Realm. Does he not know the meaning of the word ‘death’?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Once the brothers in the Heavenly Immortal Realm come out of seclusion, Li Xiaobai will, at the very least, be completely crippled. It looks like there’s no need to bother with him now—his death is certain.”

The disciples looked at Li Xiaobai reverently as he walked step by step in front of them, keeping their distance respectfully, and watched him leave Sword Peak.

Outside Sword Peak.

Li Xiaobai stopped in his tracks. After this ordeal, the System had accumulated twenty million more Attribute Points—all added to defense.

[Defensive Power: Earth Immortal Body (Twenty Million/One Billion) (Earth Dragon Grass: to be obtained) Can advance.]

With Sword Peak around, it seems that reaching one billion isn’t such a difficult task. Spending a few days inside should suffice to achieve it.

“Hmm, but to leave just like this feels somewhat regretful.”

Li Xiaobai stroked his chin and, after pondering for a moment, pulled out a brand-new gourd from his bosom, brilliantly green like jade and crystal clear.

This was an upgraded version of the Purple Gold Gourd—the Jade Gourd.

After ascending to the Earth Immortal Realm, many grey items in the shop had been unlocked, and the Jade Gourd was one of them.

[Jade Gourd: Can collect all Earth Immortal Realm cultivators. (Price: Five thousand medium-grade Immortal Stones)]

[Note: Fellow Daoist, please stop.]

Li Xiaobai aimed the mouth of the gourd at the indistinct figure standing ahead, gently tapped the gourd, and tentatively recited, “Fellow Daoist, please stop?”

A sweep of green light flashed out, and any cultivator touched by the light was immediately enveloped and vanished without a trace, offering no resistance. It all happened silently, appearing rather flawless.

“After all that talk just now, did they really think I couldn’t hear them?”

“They should all be thrown into the latrines for reformation work!”

Li Xiaobai murmured to himself, tucked away the gourd, and then turned around to leave reassured.

Although the Sect Master had instructed him not to kidnap anymore, seeing such a group of wealthy Earth Immortal Realm disciples flaunting in front of him, he felt nobody could resist the temptation—better to bind them first as a gesture of respect!

A quarter of an hour later.

Atop Second Peak.

Chen Yuan waited anxiously at the storefront, immediately showing delight upon seeing Li Xiaobai return, and hurriedly went up to greet him.

“Brother Li, you’re finally back. Those people were so arrogant and imperious, they even directly ordered all the disciples away. Now, they are even forcing the immortals from the Human Immortal Ranking List to soak with them in the same bathhouse—it’s hard to say what might happen next!”

“Huh? They dare to do such a thing?”

Li Xiaobai asked, puzzled. After all, these were disciples of the Super Sect, whose status and position were not comparable to a few true transmissions from the Sword Sect.

“They said that whatever happens, you, Brother, would take the blame, so they act without any concerns…”

Chen Yuan stammered, his low cultivation level meant he could do little to help, and the whereabouts of the other three villains were currently unknown.

“I see, no worries, as long as they are still in the shop, it’s handleable.”

“Once I get there, I’ll eliminate them!”
