Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

Saber Demon’s scalp went numb.

For the first time, he truly felt the threat of death.

He roared and poured all of his qi into his saber without holding anything back. His 10% Xiantian Stage Saber Intent erupted fully, and the saber in his hand released a terrifying black light.

"Demon Saber Annihilates the World!"

This was Saber Demon’s strongest attack.

The instant he slashed out, a massive black saber light tore through the battlefield. It carried a destructive aura that seemed capable of cutting apart mountains and rivers. The saber light expanded rapidly, turning into a hundred-meter-long demonic blade that slashed toward the thousands of crimson swords with all of Saber Demon’s remaining strength.

Li Yun’s eyes remained calm.

He pointed his sword forward.

"Go."

The thousands of slaughter qi swords descended at once.

The sky seemed to collapse under the crimson rain of swords.

Boom!

The first wave of slaughter swords crashed into the massive black saber light, causing an earth-shaking explosion. The saber light trembled violently, and dozens of crimson swords shattered against it. However, more slaughter swords immediately followed.

The second wave descended.

Then the third.

Then the fourth.

The thousands of swords attacked without pause, each one carrying Xiantian Stage Slaughter Sword Intent. Saber Demon’s strongest attack was indeed terrifying, and it managed to destroy hundreds of slaughter swords in succession, but it could not withstand the endless crimson tide.

Cracks appeared on the massive black saber light.

Saber Demon’s expression changed drastically.

"No!"

He roared and desperately poured more qi into his attack, but it was already too late.

The black saber light shattered.

The remaining slaughter swords broke through the final defense and descended upon him like divine punishment. Saber Demon swung his saber in panic, destroying several more crimson swords, but his movements quickly slowed as the first slaughter sword pierced through his shoulder.

The second sword pierced his chest.

The third sword tore through his abdomen.

Then dozens more crimson swords struck him one after another.

His protective qi shattered completely. His armor was torn apart, his flesh was pierced through, and the Xiantian Stage Slaughter Sword Intent invaded his body, destroying his vitality from within. Saber Demon’s eyes widened, and blood poured from his mouth as disbelief filled his face.

He had never imagined that he would die to a Mortal Core Realm martial artist.

He had never imagined that his strongest saber attack would be crushed so thoroughly.

Most of all, he had never imagined that Li Yun’s Slaughter Sword Intent would be so terrifying after reaching the Xiantian Stage.

A final crimson sword flashed through the air.

It pierced straight through Saber Demon’s forehead.

His body stiffened.

The light in his eyes disappeared.

A moment later, Saber Demon collapsed heavily to the ground, and the terrifying saber aura that had filled the battlefield vanished with him.

The thousands of slaughter qi swords slowly dissolved into crimson light and scattered into the air. The battlefield returned to silence, but the pressure left behind by Li Yun’s Xiantian Stage Slaughter Sword Intent still lingered like an invisible shadow.

Li Yun slowly lowered his sword.

His expression remained calm, but the aura around him had completely changed.

His Slaughter Sword Intent had stepped into the Xiantian Stage.

And Saber Demon had become the first sacrifice beneath it.

The Saber Demon, renowned and famous throughout Yunxiao Prefecture, and even somewhat known in Spirit Void Region, had now died at the hands of a 9th level of Mortal Core Realm Martial Artist, with no one aware of it!

If this matter were to spread, the entire Yunxiao Prefecture, and even Spirit Void Region, would be utterly shaken!

"It is finally over."

In the distance, Li Yun let out a long sigh of relief, and the tension in his heart finally eased.

This battle could be considered one of the most difficult fights he had experienced since his rebirth.

If Saber Fiend’s essence qi realm had not been suppressed by this small world, or if Saber Fiend had not been so arrogant and had taken proper precautions against Li Yun from the beginning, then the final outcome of this battle would still have been uncertain.

A powerhouse comparable to the top twenty of the Earth Ranking truly lived up to his reputation.

This battle also made Li Yun realize something clearly. Fame was never without reason. Those who could rank on the Earth Ranking, especially those who stood near the forefront, were definitely not people who could be underestimated.

Even though he had now reached the 9th level of Mortal Core Realm, if he were in the outside world and compared himself to the top-ranked powerhouses on the Earth Ranking, he would likely only be around the level of the top twenty.

"Earth Ranking..."

Taking a deep breath, Li Yun cleared the distracting thoughts from his mind.

Afterward, he collected all the remaining spiritual materials and spirit stones from the water cavern into his storage ring.

Because of the explosion of the demonic beast core, the water cavern had also been affected. Many spiritual materials and spirit stones had been scattered throughout the surroundings, and what remained intact was less than sixty percent of the original amount.

However, Li Yun could not be bothered to search carefully for every scattered spiritual material and spirit stone. After thoroughly looting everything that remained nearby, he directly returned to the shore.

During the following period, he did not go to the areas of other cultivators to plunder points. Instead, he stayed where he was and focused on stabilizing his cultivation.

Since he had killed Saber Fiend, all the points Saber Fiend had obtained were naturally transferred to him. In other words, Li Yun now possessed a total of sixty-two points. With this score, entering the top twenty would definitely not be a problem.

Two days later, his cultivation had stabilized, and the three-day mission period of the Mountain-Sea Pass had also come to an end.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

A layer of light enveloped the entire area.

In the next moment, all the surviving cultivators were covered by that light. They left the small world and reappeared in front of the Mountain-Sea Pass.

At the beginning of the trial, there had been one hundred cultivators. Now, however, only a little over sixty remained. The other thirty or so had clearly perished during the trial.

"Huh? Saber Fiend is not here?"

"Saber Fiend fell? How is that possible?"

Soon, a shocked cry came from the crowd, immediately causing a wave of commotion.

Saber Fiend’s strength was comparable to the top twenty of the Earth Ranking. Not to mention among this batch of trial participants, even among all the cultivators who had entered the Lost Ancient City, he could be considered one of the foremost figures. How could such a powerhouse have fallen during the trial of the Mountain-Sea Pass?

"Saber Fiend was killed by a mere Rank Seven demonic beast? What kind of joke is that?"

"If he was not killed by a demonic beast, then was he killed by someone? Who here would have that kind of ability?"

Within the crowd, a few people glanced suspiciously at Li Yun.

However, they quickly shook their heads and dismissed that unrealistic thought from their minds.

Although they had personally seen Saber Fiend threaten to kill Li Yun before entering the small world, Li Yun had only just broken through to the 9th level of Mortal Core Realm. No matter how monstrous his aptitude was, how could someone at the 9th level of Mortal Core Realm possibly kill Saber Fiend?

That was simply impossible.

Thinking of this, they even felt secretly amused. They felt that they must have lost their senses for even entertaining such an absurd idea.
