Chapter 1188: Chapter 1189: Bring it on!
“Seriously, is just jumping down considered a trial?”
A cultivator spoke out, immediately triggering echoes from a group of people.
“Exactly, what kind of trial is this? Is the Blood Demon Sect looking down on us?”
“Who cares, we just have to jump down, right? A light leap and I’m there. Maybe there’s a reward for whoever gets there first?”
“Let’s go, let’s go, the cliff’s right here. We’ll jump first; don’t let them beat us to it!”
“One, two, three, jump!”
A bunch of fierce and brutish cultivators hooted and hollered in excitement, all ready to jump down in one go. Hundreds of cultivators leaped up at the same time, soaring high into the air, but then landed back exactly where they started, without moving an inch forward.
Only a few cultivators in the front saw the large group rushing to jump down and immediately felt a tightness in their chest. Without a second thought, they jumped off.
However, as soon as they really jumped, their faces suddenly changed dramatically.
“Damn it, we’ve been tricked, they didn’t jump at all!”
“Damn, we’ve been fooled, fall back!”
“No good, there’s a restriction here, it can lock down our cultivation level!”
The few screamed miserably as their Immortal Yuan Power fluctuations disappeared without a trace. They plummeted down the cliff like tattered rags, smashing into a pile of mush.
Seeing this, those standing at the top of the cliff fell into deep thought. These few ‘guinea pigs’ had tested it out for them. It was a known fact that the cliff was the first challenge; how could it possibly be easy? They had merely feigned a jump without announcing it, not expecting to actually fool anyone. Now, it was clear that there was indeed something amiss with the cliff.
There were restrictions below, and when a cultivator descended, their internal Immortal Yuan Power would be suppressed. It was like losing all cultivation level, leaving them to rely solely on their Physical Strength. But the height of the cliff was no joke; unless one specialized in physical cultivation, without the ability to use their cultivation level, they, the Mortal Flesh, would be facing certain death.
“Heh, I thought it was some great trial, is that all there is?”
“It’s just a test of the physical body, what’s so difficult about that? We, Loose Cultivators, focus on the robustness of our bodies to adapt to sudden emergencies on a daily basis. As long as we don’t suffer serious injuries from the jump, broken arms and short legs can all be reattached; what’s there to fear?”
A few brawny men in the crowd laughed heartily. Having understood the true nature of the trial, they felt relaxed and jumped straight down from the cliff, a line of seven falling together.
In the end, five were unharmed except for some minor injuries, while the remaining three suffered broken arms and legs. However, after running their Cultivation Technique and healing with Elixirs, they soon reattached their limbs.
Li Xiaobai quietly observed everything that was happening and understood; this trial was ineffective against him. Jumping down was nothing to him.
He turned his head to look at Meng Qi, who was pondering amidst the crowd. The disciple of the Chess Saint was deep in thought, apparently contemplating how to descend the immense cliff safely.
“Immortal, would you like me to give you a lift? It’ll only cost you one million top-grade Immortal Stones, a real bargain,”
Li Xiaobai approached with a chuckle and said.
“In your dreams!”
Meng Qi spat out a mouthful of disdain and pulled out a Longsword to stick it into the cliff wall. Holding onto the hilt, she slid straight down, with the sword cutting into the cliff like slicing through tofu, carving her path downward.
“She’s got quite the temper, but the disciple of the Chess Saint joining the Blood Demon Sect seems pretty unusual!”
Li Xiaobai muttered to himself, a sharp gleam appearing in his eyes. He scanned the surrounding cultivators; all of them were experts of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. If he could take them all down, it would be a rich resource.
“Brother Qiang, that chick doesn’t know her place. Later, us bros will teach her a lesson for Brother Qiang!”
“Some of us junior disciples are willing to offer a million top-grade Immortal Stones. Can Brother Qiang give us a boost?”
A cultivator nearby inquired quietly, yet his voice was heard by everyone present, who then, as if by consensus, turned to look at Li Xiaobai. Indeed, the opposing party had just taken a blow from a Half-Saint Strong Expert without a scratch, so he must have specially tempered his physical body.
“Boost you?”
“Where were you all when I was sweeping through the inns yesterday? Thought you could hide and everything would just blow over?”
“Dodge the first day but not the fifteenth; now that I see you, I’ll still blow you apart!”
“Still want to join the assessment?”
“Bring it on!”
Li Xiaobai sneered, and his Wolf Fang Club smashed down on that cultivator, instantly rending him to pieces. Above his head, the Sin Value manifested.
“Seventy million!”
Those two Half-Saints clearly knew he was looking for trouble with these cultivators but still left insouciantly – don’t they know to act appropriately to the situation? Leaving him alone with these evildoers was the biggest blunder of the two Elders.
Soon enough, you’ll realize what a terrible mistake you’ve made. Want to play the hero? Not a chance!

Li Xiaobai’s golden war chariot manifested beneath his feet; with the Wolf Fang Club in his hands, he swirled it around impenetrably, charging through the crowd like a meat grinder, striking to kill anyone he saw. In no time, the mountainside was awash with blood and flesh, different resources and Magic Treasures burst out one after another, frightening the cultivators into screaming shrilly.
“The bald guy actually dares to commit a massacre here; this is the territory of the Blood Demon Sect!”
“That’s right, we are all here for the Blood Demon Sect’s assessment, you can’t touch me!”
“Where are those two Elders from just now? Come save me!”
“This is a real demon head, he kills without considering the place. How dare he make a mess in such a place?”
The cultivators fled in panic; faced with Li Xiaobai’s indiscriminate attacks, they were scared witless, and couldn’t outpace the golden war chariot. Every crush still spelled death, and they didn’t dare to jump off the cliff, lacking the confidence to survive.
For the moment, they could do nothing but let Li Xiaobai slaughter them.
The Wolf Fang Club tossed up and down, the great swaths of Sword Qi swept with the club, slicing the cultivators in half at the waist, and strewn bodies littered the field.
The cultivators guarding the gate were trembling beside a huge rock like birds startled by the mere twang of a bow, not daring to even breathe heavily.
A few breaths later.
Li Xiaobai stopped his onslaught, and aside from himself and the gate-keeping disciples, no one else on the cliffs was left alive. All these Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivators here for the Blood Demon Sect Inner Sect Disciple assessment turned into his Sin Value, filling his treasure troves.
He swept up all resources into his bag, pleased with himself. This harvest was all prime prey, worth a lot. In terms of just top-grade Immortal Stones alone, they amounted to over a hundred million. Added to the approximately one billion Immortal Stones he already possessed, he now had a total of around two to three hundred million.
Though it didn’t compare to the astronomical figures over ten billion he had on Ice Dragon Island, it was still somewhat useful.
A bloody light violently burst in the void.
“Sin Value: Ninety million!”
The blood-red figures close to breaking one billion stunned everyone like a slap to the face, and the gate-keeping disciples immediately knelt down to kowtow. Such a Sin Value they had only seen on the Saint Realm Elders — this bald man must be a supremely powerful expert in hiding!
