Chapter 459: Chapter 460: The Evil Rich

The colossal golden cudgel stood tall and mighty in Liuren’s hand, wielded as effortlessly as a child’s plaything.

Golden Blood Qi flooded out, forcefully suppressing everything around as the Sea-Calming Divine Needle spun around and smashed ferociously into the depths of the frontier.

“Roar!”

The Long-Armed Divine Ape, unwilling to accept defeat, let out an utterly frustrated roar, yet it was powerless to do anything but watch the golden cudgel crash down before it.

Deep in the frontier, half a mountain range was pulverized into fragments, with debris scattering in all directions and countless Flesh Mountains being flattened into minced meat at that very moment.

Gigantic, unfathomably deep chasms crisscrossed each other, extending into the endless darkness.

In the void above, Liuren’s figure rose up against the fierce sun, his eyes bursting with divine light, as he looked down indifferently at everything below.

The formidable aura tore the Long-Armed Divine Ape to shreds, turning it into streaks of golden light that dissipated into the void.

Seeing this brutal scene unfold, a group of old ancestors couldn’t help but swallow hard.

“Who was it that just said they wanted to go up and loot?”

“Cough cough, it was I who got carried away, my apologies. I shouldn’t have spoken such arrogance!”

The elders:

This was a one-sided affair; the previously even match had obviously been Vice Leader testing the Long-Armed Divine Ape’s strength, deliberately going easy and teasing it!

Fortunately, they hadn’t believed what others said, because with this display of force, Liuren’s power had definitely reached a new level and he no longer stood on the same plane as them.

“Do I sense that Vice Leader is about to ascend?”

“You don’t have to ‘sense’ it; with such terrifying strength, he is absolutely on the verge of ascending!”

“Next time the Immortal Spirit Qi is released, it will probably be the day of his ascension!”

“So are we to continue to lie dormant for another hundred years? With my life span dwindling, I can hardly wait any longer!”

“What can you do if you can’t wait? It’s not just you; even if we all joined forces, we wouldn’t be able to make him flinch, and let’s not forget that Aolai Country has more than one leader, including a couple of Half-step Human Immortals!”

“If such is the will of heaven, all I wish for in emerging this time is to find an opportunity.”

The old ancestors were faced with a torrential surge of emotions. Liuren’s display of strength far exceeded their expectations. Without employing even the slightest bit of his cultivation techniques, merely with his flesh and Bloodline Power, he had achieved something unprecedented.

It was somewhat reminiscent of demonstrating the Dao through sheer force.

But they knew all too well that the strongest entity in Aolai Country of the Eastern Sea was not the Flesh Mountain but the Great Divine Power. Purely in terms of cultivation techniques, Aolai Country ranked among the top three.

The fearsome strength of the Bloodline Power, combined with unfathomable cultivation levels and cultivation techniques, meant the peer who once stood among them had unknowingly marched to the fore, their vision and scope probably no longer confined to this realm.

They had indeed lost any qualification to compete with him.

On the ground, at the bottom of a bottomless chasm, a young man with a dirty face and bloodstained clothes climbed out, his white clothes completely stained crimson with blood, giving him a ghastly and terrifying appearance.

“Cough cough, damn it, I’ve hit the jackpot this time!”

Li Xiaobai’s eyes shimmered with excitement, as the aftermath of that strike alone caused his System to surge by two hundred thousand Attribute Points.

With a flick of his wrist, he popped dozens of Heavenly Fragrance Life-extending Pills into his mouth, and his body’s injuries visibly healed at a remarkable pace.

He had no doubts that without these life-saving items from the System Mall, he would likely be on the brink of death right now.

In this world, there is nothing that Spirit Stones cannot solve; if there is, it’s simply a matter of not having enough of them.

With a mountain of Elixirs and talismans at one’s disposal, as long as one is not instantly killed, even the most severe injuries can be healed.

This was the confidence he dared to draw from the attacks of others.

“Boy, just how many treasures do you have?”

“What are these elixirs made of, do they not cost money?”

The old beggar had completely given up on thinking, as there were simply too many shocking things happening at once, and he did not know where to start.

Whether it was the dominance of the Liuren or the inexhaustible wealth of elixirs on Li Xiaobai, both had significantly shocked his soul.

In his eyes, Li Xiaobai had indeed become a walking treasure vault.

“Senior, as long as there are Spirit Stones, treasures can be endless and inexhaustible.”

“This is the power of money.”

Li Xiaobai smiled wryly as the old beggar looked on with a somewhat foolish gaze. Li Xiaobai voraciously devoured the elixirs, and his physical injuries healed in the blink of an eye. Aside from his clothes looking rather fierce, there were no other signs of injury.

“The evilness of the wealthy.”

The old beggar muttered under his breath and fell silent.

Looking at the borderlands, ravaged beyond recognition, Li Xiaobai felt fortunate that his decision to retract the Hellfire earlier was correct, otherwise, with that one strike, even the strongest reproductive ability would have been extinguished.

At this moment, the first battlefield had been turned into a gigantic trench stretching for hundreds of miles, leading deep into the borderlands, created by the impact of the Sea-Calming Divine Needle.

For the future defense of this battlefield, aside from the normal guard duty, they would probably need additional people to monitor this trench to prevent the Flesh Mountain from crawling through.

As expected of the combat force ceiling of the Immortal Spirit Continent, the power of this bunch was terrifying to such an extent, they had instantly killed the System’s “Shatter the Skies.”

This was all because he had not unlocked more skills yet. As he delved deeper into unlocking, the power of the Sea-Calming Divine Needle should be gradually unleashed, and by that time, even the Vice Leader of the Eastern Sea would struggle to withstand it.

“Young Master Li’s Sea-Calming Divine Needle is indeed miraculous and cannot be measured by common sense. I’ve learned a lot.”

Liuren reined in their divine light with fur receding, revealing a peerlessly beautiful visage outlined by a soul-stirring smile.

But the slightly heaving chest and the subtle swell of muscles still highlighted their unrivaled wild power.

“The strength of the Vice Leader is unfathomable, it is I who should be learning.”

Li Xiaobai acted very humbly before such a being, not daring to be reckless.

The other’s courtesy was solely because he could summon the Sea-Calming Divine Needle and was willing to cooperate in solving puzzles. Li Xiaobai had no doubt that if he showed any inclination toward suicide, this woman would be the first to suppress him.

“The matter of the First Battlefield of the borderlands concludes here. What do you all think?”

Liuren raised an eyebrow and turned to ask the group of ancient ancestors.

“Good!”

“To quell disputes and purge the dregs, Lady Liu’s efforts this time are of boundless merit!”

“Since we’re here, we might as well not leave empty-handed. How about we help the borderlands by clearing out the Flesh Mountain? That would also alleviate the pressure on the borderland cultivators.”

“I was thinking the exact same thing.”

“Great good!”

The group of ancient ancestors said with smiles on their faces, jokingly. Having witnessed the scene just now, they did not want to be on the receiving end of discomfort. But to leave just like that would leave them feeling unfulfilled. Purging the Flesh Mountain was a perfect excuse.

They could take the opportunity to stay in the borderlands for a while, without delaying their search for fortunes, and without inciting the displeasure of Liuren, killing several birds with one stone.

As for the secrets on Li Xiaobai’s person, with Liuren present, they certainly dared not covet them. They would let it go for now!
