Chapter 1451: Chapter 1452: In front of the burlap sack, everyone is equal
The insulating body is immune to lightning damage; this physique is explosively powerful, allowing passage through such a lightning barrier as if entering an empty land.
The key difference between this thunderous force and a Heavenly Tribulation is that it lacks physical harm; a Heavenly Tribulation flashes down from the sky, and the terrifying force alone is unbearable for ordinary cultivators, not to mention some tribulations even manifest in human form to fight.
As long as there is no physical harm, he can pass through at will.
The cultivators behind were dumbfounded; it was the first time they saw such a bold cultivator, hard-countering lightning with the flesh. Can this really be done?
“This thunder is not as strong as you imagined, fellow Daoists. Feel free to pass through!”
Li Xiaobai checked himself, finding no harm, and said happily.
“You… who are you? How could Heavenly God Academy have a master like you? Who exactly are you?”
Li Gandang’s pupils shrank, his face shocked, unable to remain calm. This person just walked across in front of them, without using any means, disregarding the thunder, what is this guy’s background?
The Cangtian Realm cannot nurture such a master!
“I am Zhang San, I have a kind heart, and my favorite thing in life is to lend a helping hand. Since you are not confident in your own strength and dare not venture in, it’s okay, I will help you!”
Li Xiaobai turned his wrist, took out a longsword, raised it slowly above his head, and said with a faint smile.
“What are you going to do!”
“Hundred Percent Barehanded Blade Catch!”
The longsword swung down suddenly, without any hesitation, and at that moment, all cultivators present involuntarily had their knees weakened, and their bodies out of control rushed toward the lightning barrier, both hands held high in a worshipful pose.
But it was only the instant their bodies touched that thunderous force; screams and howls followed, one after another, but it was only a moment before they abruptly ceased. The thunderous force swept over, instantly reducing bodies to ashes.
“What’s going on? My body is out of control!”
“It’s Senior Zhang, he’s using methods to control our bodies!”
“What kind of sword technique is this, that can control cultivators’ bodies? How can he use his cultivation level?”
“Quick, bite the tongue tip, activate bloodline power, maybe there’s still power to resist!”
The cultivators were terrified, watching helplessly as their bodies uncontrollably rushed into the thunder area, striving desperately to regain control, but it was futile.
No matter how they struggled, the bloodline power within seemed to not belong to them, falling into dormancy, difficult to mobilize, one after another collided with the wall, struck by lightning into bones.
Only a few highly cultivated individuals successfully crossed through, dragging broken bodies to kneel before Li Xiaobai.
They were all elder-level figures from various forces, with a few senior disciples barely escaping as well, but tightly pinned down under Li Xiaobai’s sword.
“There is no enmity between us. Why act in this manner?”
“Senior, aren’t you also a Heavenly God Academy cultivator? Why attack fellow disciples!”
“Who are you really, entering this battlefield, perhaps intending to doom all clan cultivators?”
The crowd was internally frightened, seeing such a bizarre trick for the first time.
Moreover, did the man in front not claim to be from the Baihe Clan of Heavenly God Academy? Why did he attack even the Academy disciples?
This level of strong presence appearing on the battlefield, the balance of power skewed immensely, surely there is a scheme!
“Hand over the money to buy your life, and you may live!”
Li Xiaobai said lightly. The battlefield changed in an instant; this group wanted to harm him, he had to strike first to prevent getting stabbed in the back.
“How much do you want, Senior? We will offer in full!”
The younger cultivators spoke instantly; their bodies, after a moment of lightning baptism, were already a broken shell, needing immediate treatment or future cultivation paths might be severed, leaving hidden ailments.
“No need, I’ll handle it myself!”
Li Xiaobai stepped forward, scanning the inside and outside of this group of cultivators, sweeping off all Space Rings and Storage Bags, then took out some Binding Pills, tossing them into all mouths.
“This is called automatic payment for buying life!”
“Come with me, with luck, you might return to your respective clan forces!”
Li Xiaobai smirked, whether he is truly invincible in the Forty-ninth Battlefield remains to be seen, but for the moment, suppressing several ordinary elder-level cultivators poses no problem.
“All our assets are in your hands, why be so aggressive, don’t you find it excessive?”
Li Gandang dared not express anger; it was half a lifetime of hard work, just swept away like this; he never suffered such a loss upon entering society!
“In cultivation, it’s the law of the jungle; this is a skirmish where you picked a fight, and I swapped hands. Shut up and obediently crawl into the sack, you might still retain the dignity of a strong man, let me esteem you a bit higher!”
Li Xiaobai snickered, tossing out a bundle of sacks, individually packed the cultivators to carry away.
If identities were swapped, this group wouldn’t spare him either; to reach their current state, killing and looting were already second nature.
Lacking fortune, these cultivators still held one final value, bodily trade, selling people back in exchange for resources, this was sustainable development strategy.
Next journey to other realms, perhaps they’ll bind once again.
“How dare you! I am from the Beiliang Royal Family; even a few War Gods from the Heavenly God Academy must treat with respect!”
“Acting so recklessly; are you not afraid of courting death?”
Li Gandang roared angrily; in his domain, he is a high elder; anyone seeing him must call him Elder, never before had he been so humiliated, wrapped in a sack as if commercial goods. If word spread, he wouldn’t be able to mingle.
Yet Li Xiaobai paid no heed to his words, roughly stuffing him into the sack.
“In front of bags, everyone is equal!”
“The team has grown, just unsure what’s peculiar in the second layer?”
“Has anyone ascended this layer yet?”
Li Xiaobai dragged a bundle onto a golden chariot; the body expanded, its speed slowed considerably dragging hundreds to thousands of cultivators.
Continuing upwards, still a corridor passage, accompanied by bottomless darkness.
The golden talisman gleamed, another golden brilliance covering, similar in structure to the first layer, the walls encased in dormant insect eggs, difficult to deduce origins.
The rumbling wheels of the golden chariot seemed to alarm them; wall dust began shedding en masse, egg after egg started shaking, trembling, on the verge of awakening.
“These are Golden Silkworms, extremely sinister insect demonic beasts, feeding on cultivation; quickly leave, do not linger!”
The expert inside the sack seemed also aware of external changes, hurriedly advised.
They were tied with Li Xiaobai; dared not risk their lives on trivialities.
“Mere insect eggs, a flick and they are gone!”
Li Xiaobai showed no fear, casually summoned, pitch-black flames arose, engulfing surrounding eggs, devouring them entirely, both feeding on everything; let’s see who devours whom!
