Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System

In the next moment, Li Yun appeared before a dark cave.

The pitch-black cave was like the mouth of an ancient behemoth, swallowing all light. Any light that approached the entrance immediately dissipated without a trace.

This was the Endless Demon Cave.

Inside the Endless Demon Cave, a batch of demon beasts appeared every fifteen minutes. Each batch consisted of exactly one hundred beasts. As the rounds increased, the strength of the demon beasts would grow progressively stronger.

With every additional round, the strength of the demon beasts would increase slightly. Every five rounds, their strength would undergo a significant leap.

There were thirty rounds of trials in total.

From the sixteenth round onward, the demon beasts would be at the 9th level of Heavenly Core Realm. As for the twenty-sixth round, every single demon beast would be comparable to a powerhouse at the 1st level of Spirit Manifestation Realm.

Although the difficulty was high, the rewards of the Endless Demon Cave were also extremely generous. For every demon beast killed, one could obtain a crystal core, which could directly increase a cultivator’s true essence.

Although the increase was not vast, small amounts would add up, saving a significant amount of time spent in bitter cultivation. Especially in the later rounds, the rewards increased exponentially.

Therefore, among all the secret realms of the Profound Origin Immortal Sect, the Endless Demon Cave was one of the most popular.

"Everyone."

At that moment, a woman in white wearing a snow-white training outfit and a ponytail stepped forward.

Although she was not exactly beautiful, she possessed a heroic aura.

She said, "I believe everyone knows about the trial of the Endless Demon Cave. To pass more stages and obtain more rewards, I suggest we join forces to deal with the demon beasts coming out of the cave."

"The suggestion is good, but I think we should forget it."

Just as the woman in white finished speaking, the bearded young man sneered and said, "This kid took my younger brother’s spot, and you want me to join forces with him? In your dreams."

As he spoke, the bearded young man glanced at Li Yun, making no effort to hide the dissatisfaction and disdain in his eyes.

"Senior Brother Shi is right. I would not feel safe cooperating with an elite disciple at the 1st level of Heavenly Core Realm," another blue-robed cultivator said with curled lips.

"If danger appears, we would have to protect him, and any gains would still have to be shared with him. I have no interest in being a babysitter."

"Indeed, I think it is better if everyone fights for themselves to avoid trouble."

As soon as one person spoke, more immediately chimed in.

Soon, including the bearded young man, Shi Tianming, a total of seven people rejected the suggestion to join forces. Among them, five expressed their disdain for Li Yun.

This was actually quite normal.

Because of the difference in treatment, there was naturally a rift between ordinary disciples and elite disciples.

However, under normal circumstances, because of the strength of elite disciples, ordinary disciples only dared to feel jealousy and dissatisfaction in their hearts. They would not dare to express it openly.

But Li Yun was an exception.

He was only at the 1st level of Heavenly Core Realm, several levels lower than them. Under these circumstances, they naturally felt no fear toward him.

Not only that, they also took the opportunity to vent all their dissatisfaction with elite disciples onto Li Yun. Taking such an attitude toward him was, in their eyes, only natural.

"Forget it then."

Seeing that Shi Tianming and the others had all rejected her idea, a trace of disappointment appeared in the eyes of the woman in white. She shook her head and gave up on persuading them.

Li Yun merely watched coldly from the side and did not voice any opinion.

Including himself, there were exactly ten people in this group.

Among them, Shi Tianming, the woman in white, and a green-robed man who had not yet spoken were all at the 9th level of Heavenly Core Realm.

The other six were all at the perfection stage of the 8th level of Heavenly Core Realm.

Among these people, only Shi Tianming and the other two could pose a slight threat to him, but even that threat was extremely limited.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

At that moment, a series of piercing sounds suddenly rang out from within the Endless Demon Cave.

Soon after, a group of demon beasts appeared before Li Yun and the others.

These demon beasts were shaped like stones, with eerie faces on their surfaces. They emitted strange and sharp laughter that made one’s chest tighten and feel extremely uncomfortable upon hearing it.

On those eerie faces, a closed vertical eye suddenly snapped open, shooting beams of gray light toward everyone.

"Stone-Eyed Fiends!"

A cultivator shouted, "The demon beasts are here. Begin the battle."

"Kill!"

Several cultivators shouted in unison and charged forward.

Among them, the fastest were naturally Shi Tianming, the woman in white, and the green-robed man.

Boom!

Shi Tianming threw a direct punch, shattering all the gray light beams attacking him. Although he was a disciple of Sword Peak, his physical body had clearly been tempered to an extremely powerful level.

"Hahaha!"

He laughed wildly, his body crashing forward like a human tank.

He charged directly in front of Li Yun and blasted apart all the Stone-Eyed Fiends that were pouncing toward him.

Then, with a sweep of his large hand, he instantly snatched up the crystal cores that had formed after the Stone-Eyed Fiends died.

Li Yun’s face darkened slightly.

He knew that Shi Tianming was certainly not helping him kill the demon beasts out of kindness. He was doing this solely to snatch away Li Yun’s spoils and prevent him from obtaining any crystal cores.

’What a fool. Does he think provoking me makes him look impressive?’

Li Yun shook his head.

If he made a move seriously, he feared that all the demon beasts here would die under one sword.

Thinking of this, his expression returned to calm.

He watched Shi Tianming rampaging in front of him without making any move.

"What a coward."

Shi Tianming sneered.

He had deliberately tried to provoke Li Yun, hoping that Li Yun would attack first so that he would have an excuse even if he struck back later.

To his surprise, Li Yun had not fallen for it.

However, this only made him look down on Li Yun even more.

For a dignified elite disciple to not dare take any action when facing the provocation of an ordinary disciple, Shi Tianming truly did not understand how such a person had become an elite disciple.

"I did not expect this guy to be such a spineless coward."

The other cultivators also showed looks of disdain.

Even the woman in white could not help shaking her head, revealing a look of disappointment.

For a cultivator, temporary weakness in strength did not matter much. But if even their heart-nature was weak, then they were truly beyond saving.

In the face of Shi Tianming’s provocation, Li Yun’s act of stepping back was seen by them as weakness.

This time, the last shred of awe they felt toward Li Yun’s status as an elite disciple vanished without a trace.

A moment later, all the Stone-Eyed Fiends of the first round were killed.

After a short rest, another group of demon beasts flew out from the Endless Demon Cave.
