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

Chapter 731: Chapter 732: Breakthrough, Earth Immortal Body!
 

In the days of yore, grand figures who once dominated the Immortal Spirit Continent now gathered together to support Li Xiaobai.

The old masters looked ashen-faced, realizing the trend was against them. With so many top-notch fighters taking action, they stood no chance; the Immortal Spirit Qi was no longer within their reach.

Seeing everyone giving up the fight, Prince Yan was furious.

“You imbeciles, why stop now!”

“Stop them! Once other dynasties’ heirs gather here, we will be able to slaughter these lowly swines!”

The icy woman from the Sword Dynasty also spoke up, “Indeed, you must understand that our Central Origin Realm cannot be compared to your tiny place. Your actions today are your declaration of allegiance, determining your future fate!”

“Get moving quickly, the Li Dynasty Crown Prince will remember your favor!”

The Li Dynasty Crown Prince also spoke, his expression full of disdain, viewing the group as nothing but despicable swine and fickle turncoats, such lowly beings that would be unwelcome anywhere.

“Report back, envoy, we can’t beat them.”

The Qi Sect old master revealed a forced smile, attempting to leave a good impression for the last time.

“Useless!”

“You, among these swine, only you seem somewhat pleasing to the eye. Distract them for me, and the Li Dynasty Crown Prince will reward you!”

The Li Dynasty Crown Prince pointed at Liu Jiannan as he spoke.

“What do you count for, daring to command me? Do you qualify?”

Liu Jiannan didn’t give the Crown Prince the time of day, his gaze was icy, and his tone was chilling, startling the Crown Prince.

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener took it to heart, and at this moment, the faces of the leaders from various forces all took on peculiar expressions.

Huahuo, the Great Family Head of Aolai Country, spoke indifferently, “Princes over there, have you misunderstood something?”

“Do you think why we arrived so late?”

“It was to capture all the cultivators who came from the Lower Realm!”

At that, Master Rong, the third-ranking family head, flicked his cloud sleeves, and a dozen young people tumbled out, covered in blood, barely hanging onto life, among them a broken flag with the character ‘Yan’ inscribed on it.

“Fourteenth brother!”

Prince Yan immediately recognized the people on the ground and shouted in surprise.

“Speaking of which, I have caught some fish that slipped through the net too.”

Kraken rubbed his belly and belched out several young men, pale and motionless; their Primordial Spirit Power had already been extinguished, dead beyond doubt.

“These are disciples of my Sword Dynasty!”

“You killed them!”

“My clan will not let you off, just mere swine, daring to resist the Central Origin Realm, you are doomed! This entire continent will be your collective tomb!”

After recognizing the faces of the few, the woman from the Sword Dynasty suddenly screamed in alarm, unable to maintain her composure any longer. Her eyes burned with rage and deep fear, overwhelmed by a sorrow that spread through her whole being.

“I have some over here too!”

Hovering above the Kingdom of Women, Su Yunbing held a rope in hand, dragging dozens of cultivators on the ground behind her.

The fellow disciples were especially overjoyed to see each other.

“Junior brother, did we make it in time?”

“Thank you, fellow senior brothers and sisters, for lending a righteous hand!”

“This old monk has some here too. As monks are compassionate, they were not harmed in the least.”

Master Xuan Bei took out a small gourd, from which he poured out about a dozen cultivators.

Almost all the cultivators from the various major powers guarding the borders of the realms had been captured, the reason they were a step behind the ancient ancestors of the various races was that they had gone to ambush the Upper Realm cultivators.

“That’s Senior Brother Liu from the Azure Cloud Sect!”

“That’s Nineteen Sister from the Sword Dynasty!”

“Over there are disciples from the Mahayana Teachings!”

“They’ve all been captured!”

Watching one familiar face after another being tossed out by these natives, some still lively and others already cold corpses, several Princely Heirs looked on, terror-stricken, daring not to show the slightest hint of arrogance anymore.

The Upper Realm disciples released were cowering in corners, trembling uncontrollably, without the slightest intention to resist; they had originally thought that being among the first to arrive in the Lower Realm as pioneers could yield many benefits, but little did they know they would be captured without a word and taken away before they could even settle down.

Just the thought of those overwhelming methods made them tremble uncontrollably; these natives were too frightening!

“How did so many die, don’t they know how precious Upper Realm cultivators are?”

Li Xiaobai knitted his brows slightly, and his demeanor did put many Upper Realm cultivators at ease—it seemed the backbone of the Immortal Spirit Continent understood the situation well and knew that Upper Realm cultivators were untouchable.

However, his words in the next moment sent them into an icy despair.

“How can we soul search the dead? Don’t you all still want to obtain the Central Origin Realm Cultivation Techniques?”

“It was my clumsiness; I didn’t expect these people to be so useless, unable to even handle stomach acid, with several of them being corroded into remains already.”

“But with so many still left, that should be enough. How about we divide them up now? I’ll take those three!”

Kraken scratched his head and pointed to the group of three that included Prince Yan, noting that they seemed to know quite a bit, and a soul search would likely yield many good things.

“Woof, those three are Lord Ergouzi’s. Pick something else!”

Ergouzi immediately barked in protest, clearly dissatisfied.

“No, no, no, don’t soul search!”

“If there’s anything you want to know, we’ll tell you, all of it. It’s just Cultivation Techniques, right? We have them, we’ll give them all to you, please don’t kill us!”

The Upper Realm disciples were close to tears, seeing the ones they considered as lowly as pigs and dogs now discussing how to divide them up, even having conflicts over it, treating them as merchandise, with complete indifference to their life or death.

This was truly a first in their lives indeed!

“First, tie them up, let none escape, and let me absorb the Immortal Spirit Qi first,” Li Xiaobai said indifferently, controlling Godzilla under his feet as he moved towards those white flowers.

Reaching out his hand, in an instant, all the flowers seemed to be drawn by a massive force, rushing crazily towards the palm of his hand, layers of pale golden lines shimmered on his body. At that moment, everyone present unconsciously felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation, a sensation that was fleeting, as Li Xiaobai’s body returned to normal.

At the same time, the numbers on the System’s panel began to jump rapidly.

[Ding! Host has absorbed Immortal Spirit Qi.]

[Ding! Host has met the criteria, defense upgraded!]

[Host: Li Xiaobai.]

[…]

[Defensive Power: Human Immortal Body (0/100 million) upgradeable.]

[Attribute Points: Fifty million.]

[…]

There’s nothing to say, all Attribute Points go into defense!

[Defensive Power: Human Immortal Body (50 million/100 million) upgradeable.]

The level rose dramatically, as he came into contact with the Immortal Spirit Qi, the System Defense successfully advanced, and relying on the previously accumulated Attribute Points, he directly completed half the progress—the Earth Immortal Body was within reach!
