I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense-Chapter 727: 728: Take Action!
Chapter 727 -728: Take Action!
“By your command, we shall take good care of the Upper Realm messengers!”
The group of elders hurriedly said.
From the giant rift in the sky, powerful breaths spurted out, and dozens of celestial lights flew from the dark and profound passage, stirring the wind and clouds with vigorous Immortal Spirit Qi.
“It’s Immortal Spirit Qi! It’s finally being deployed!”
“The heaven-favored disciples of the Upper Realm have also arrived!”
Below, cultivators couldn’t help but widen their eyes, staring at the spectacle above them.
Pure white flowers drifted down slowly; these were the essence of Immortal Spirit Qi, continuously dispersing from the dark and profound spatial passage, floating and sinking in the void.
“Roar!”
The roar of beasts echoed between heaven and earth as carriages slowly emerged from the passage.
The creatures pulling the carriages were beings never seen before on the Immortal Spirit Continent, resembling white horses but with sharp, elongated golden horns on their foreheads and wings on their backs. They looked majestic and handsome, with a disdainful gaze and a terrifying, fierce aura enveloping them.
The carriages they pulled were inlaid with gold and silver, exuding an aura of wealth and prestige under the shimmering light.
At the front of each carriage were two formidable creatures pulling the vehicle, with a team of servants holding high banners on both sides, marching steadily with the procession, exuding an air of dominance.
Li Xiaobai saw that each banner bore different names, with the leading three teams at the forefront, each a frontrunner among the group—”Yan,” “Sword,” and “Li”—each team representing the power of their respective dynasties.
The rest of the cultivators watched in astonishment; such a display was simply too grand. Even the beasts pulling the carriages were infused with awe-inspiring aura, truly befitting of those from the Upper Realm.
“Reporting to the young master, we have successfully traversed the void and arrived in the Lower Realm!”
The servants reported.
“Hmm, I know,” several indifferent voices came from inside the carriages.
Seeing this, the multitude of elders bowed and cupped their fists towards the carriages in the void, saying, “We welcome the Upper Realm messengers!”
“On behalf of the Immortal Spirit Continent, we greet the arrival of the messengers from the Upper Realm!”
The elders were very enthusiastic, but regrettably, they were ignored by the messengers.
The curtains of the carriage were lifted by a corner, and the prodigies from the Upper Realm gazed down at the scenery of the Lower Realm for the first time, their brows unconsciously furrowing slightly.
“What kind of place is this for humans to stay? It’s filled with the stench of barbarians. I really don’t understand what they were thinking above, to actually send princes from our great dynasties to such a filthy and despicable land.”
The Yan Dynasty Crown Prince spoke indifferently. His figure was slender and his face handsome, clearly someone who had grown up in affluent surroundings, his words laden with a sense of superiority from those above.
“Indeed, what treasures can be found in such barbaric lands? Look at those swine below, all of them worshiping us like gods!”
The Li Dynasty Crown Prince agreed, his face full of scornful laughter. He was tall and burly, his body covered in strong muscles, the eighteenth prince of the Li Dynasty.
“My fellow princes, don’t forget the task our masters have assigned us. Let’s collect the Immortal Spirit Qi quickly. It’ll also be beneficial for us.”
Among the three, the only female disciple spoke lightly, her voice cool, her face coldly beautiful, with confidence and pride in her eyes.
“Absolutely right, let’s get to it.”
A few people, taking turns in conversation, left the several dozen ancestors hanging, not to mention acknowledging them, but they didn’t even bother to give them a proper glance.
The ancestors felt somewhat awkward.
The Qi Sect ancestor touched his nose and continued respectfully, “This old one has already prepared the best residences on the Immortal Spirit Continent for the emissaries; please, emissaries, move to the Qi Sect.”
“Yes, indeed, emissaries rest assured, we will certainly serve you with all our might and meet all of your requests!”
The Elixir Sect ancestor hurriedly said, looking very much like a groveling cur.
“Scram!”
“Swine from the Barbaric Lands are also worthy of speaking with our young master?”
“Beholding the true face of our young master is an honor for you all. To see the three dynastic heirs and not kneel is already a capital offense; dare to speak more, and we will exterminate your nine clans immediately!”
The eyes of several servants instantly turned fierce, and with a casual wave of their palms, they shooed everyone away as if swatting flies.
The ancestors’ faces turned as if they had swallowed flies, turning into a liverish hue. They hadn’t expected the newcomers to be so domineering, to not even deign to make the barest pretenses of civility, unabashedly displaying contempt for the cultivators of the Lower Realm.
“Don’t waste time with these trash. The Immortal Spirit Qi will soon be completely released. Let’s hurry and gather it!”
Several princely heirs slowly emerged from the carriage, each displaying their magic formulas as they prepared to harvest the white flowers floating nearby.
“It’s not good; the emissaries from the Upper Realm also want to compete for the Immortal Spirit Qi. What should we do?”
The group of ancestors grew somewhat panicked. Without the Immortal Spirit Qi, it meant that their cultivation levels would have a hard time advancing further, but to compete for it would undoubtedly offend the Upper Realm cultivators, and they didn’t have the courage to do so.
As everyone hesitated, a piercing laugh entered their ears: “Hahaha, tell me, you ancestors are usually so pompous, how come you’ve turned into obsequious dogs now?”
“Do you know, flatterers will end up with nothing in the end.”
Li Xiaobai, holding Long Xue, stood on the roof laughing loudly with a look full of disdain in his eyes.
“Ants of the Upper Realm, stop your foolish behavior at once. This Immortal Spirit Qi, it’s all mine!”
“Hehe, two older brothers, it is indeed amusing that there is a boor bold enough to challenge us in these Barbaric Lands,” chuckled the female cultivator from the Sword Dynasty, covering her mouth.
“Truly, a bunch of ignorant peasants, with the gall to provoke us so brazenly. Who among you will go and slaughter that swine?” scoffed the Yan Dynasty Crown Prince, a cold light flickering in his eyes.
“To dare call us ants, this is truly unprecedented. That swine’s brain must be broken. However, that little beauty’s looks aren’t bad; following that swine is a pity. Just perfectly, this crown prince lacks a maid to warm the bed. From now on, you will follow this crown prince,” said the Li Dynasty Crown Prince, his gaze drawn to Long Xue, eyes somewhat fervent.
“Bah, you’re just lusting after my body; you’re despicable!” Long Xue blushed slightly and spat.
“Hahaha, my lady, watch as your husband slays mightily in all directions today!”
“Gentlemen, if not now, then when?”
“Kill them dead!”
Li Xiaobai waved his hand, and behind him the Old Dragon King and Liuren were already impatient. Liuren’s body shone with golden light, golden fur growing ceaselessly from under his skin, enveloping his entire body. The Six-Eared Macaque bloodline fully activated, he swept forward with the Sea-Calming Divine Needle in his hand, elongated to thousands of feet, striking towards those in front of him.
Seeing this scene, the ancestors in the sky suddenly changed their expressions, unable to help but cry out, “Vice Leader, how dare you show such disrespect to the emissaries from the Upper Realm; do you intend to plunge our Immortal Spirit Continent into dishonor?”
