Chapter 469: 470
That evening, after returning to his room, Li Xiaobai noticed several figures and thought Yang Huan had arranged for some more fresh meat, instinctively wanting to shoo them away. However, upon seeing their faces clearly, his eyes filled with surprise and delight.
Sitting in the room were none other than his fellow senior brothers and sisters.
At this moment, Fourth Senior Brother Yang Guang, Fifth Senior Brother Ling Feng, and Senior Sister Su Yunbing were lying on the beds, bored and staring into space.
Upon seeing Li Xiaobai enter, they all perked up instantly and sat up straight.
“Little Junior Brother, it’s been a while!”
“I’ve missed you all, Senior Brothers and Sisters. To visit me at such a time, I’m truly grateful.”
Li Xiaobai said with a chuckle.
“We, as fellow disciples, needn’t stand on ceremony with one another. It’s truly unexpected—our little junior brother has ventured to this borderland, and judging by your current state, you’ve already surpassed us on the path of cultivation.”
Su Yunbing eyed Li Xiaobai from head to toe, her eyes brimming with surprise and uncertainty. In just a few short months of not seeing him, she could no longer see through him.
Previously on the battlefield, she and the two junior brothers had witnessed Li Xiaobai summoning the Sea-Calming Divine Needle, capable of standing firm against the Vice Leader of the Eastern Sea, unflinching even amidst the residual force of his attacks. Such strength was not something a cultivator at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage could possess.
It wasn’t hard to deduce that the opponent’s strength had already entered the Mahayana Realm.
“Hehe, it’s all down to luck. Isn’t Senior Sister close to a breakthrough as well?”
Li Xiaobai said with a beaming smile.
“Little Junior Brother, give me a hand.”
Su Yunbing, however, paid no heed to Li Xiaobai’s words. Her wrist flipped, and a huge hammer appeared in her hand, which she swung fiercely at him.
This strike didn’t use any Cultivation Technique; it was an attack initiated purely with Physical Strength. Li Xiaobai, watching the giant hammer growing larger before his eyes, made no move to defend himself and stood still, allowing Su Yunbing to strike him.
[Attribute Points +7000…]
Hmm, not bad. Merely with her Physical Strength, she could unleash seven thousand Attribute Points. If she were to employ her cultivation level, breaking ten thousand would definitely be achievable. It looks like Senior Sister is not far from her breakthrough into the Mahayana Realm.
Su Yunbing’s expression changed. With her hammer strike, she felt as though her strength had sunk into the sea without stirring a single ripple.
The expressions of Yang Chen and Ling Feng also changed. It couldn’t be more obvious what this meant—the little junior brother who used to follow them around asking questions had now completely surpassed them.
“Senior Sister, how’s that?”
Li Xiaobai asked with a smile.
“Little Junior Brother, tell me the truth, have you ever felt as if, even without practicing, your Spiritual Power is continuously drawn into your body endlessly?”
Su Yunbing asked seriously.
Li Xiaobai understood that this was going to be the same old topic again. Almost every senior brother and sister he met would discuss this with him, but such a thing didn’t exist. He relied on the System to cultivate; getting beaten was enough, and there was no need to practice any Cultivation Technique.
“Senior Sister, I understand your situation. You can rest assured, my case is different from yours. I’ve cultivated step by step on my own.”
Li Xiaobai shook his head and said.
“That’s good to hear.”
Su Yunbing nodded in response.
“Little Junior Brother, what’s the deal with you and that Vice Leader of the Aolai Country from the Eastern Sea? Why do you have a Sea-Calming Divine Needle in your possession?”
Yang Chen couldn’t help but ask the question he had been enduring for a long time.
During the fierce battle on the battlefield, he and Ling Feng were present. If it wasn’t for Su Yunbing protecting them and finding a safe place to hide, they feared they might have been severely injured by now.
The towering Sea-Calming Divine Needle had left a fresh memory in their minds; to say they were still shaken by it was an understatement.
“Well, this was a chance encounter that your junior brother stumbled upon. After this matter is resolved, your junior brother will take the Sea-Calming Divine Needle to the Eastern Sea to verify some things,” he said.
“What about you senior sisters, why didn’t you leave with those from Cold Moon Palace?”
Li Xiaobai asked.
“Isn’t it because we were worried about you? How could we possibly leave you here alone, without any care?” she said.
“But now it seems, you, kid, have been doing quite well here, owning all the shops in Holy City; you really have some tactics!”
Su Yunbing rolled her eyes, saying with some resentful humor that she had been worried about her junior brother, but instead, he was doing better than anyone else. Not only was he safe, but he had even established his own businesses in Holy City and was making money while lying down.
In comparison, they, as senior brothers and sisters, were still running around every day to increase their cultivation level, which seemed somewhat embarrassing.
“Hehe, it’s all thanks to City Lord Yang’s broad-mindedness and open-minded nature, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been allowed to open shops here,” he said.
“Actually, there’s another thing…”
Li Xiaobai pondered for a moment and then decided to tell the others about the altar.
The cultivation speed of his six senior brothers and sisters was frighteningly fast; reaching the peak of the Mahayana Realm was just a matter of time. With the help of Premium Soup Product and the quality shops, this time could be further shortened.
As for the issues within their bodies, that was up to them to explore. But for now, it did not seem dangerous.
“There’s actually such a thing!”
“So you’re saying, as long as we open the pathway of the altar, we can make our way into the Upper Realm smoothly?”
Upon thinking that there was such a safe passage to ascend to the Upper Realm, the breathing of several people became a bit rapid. Nobody wanted to be stuck at the same realm for hundreds of years. Being able to enter the Upper Realm earlier meant accessing a stronger world sooner.
“Well, in theory, it’s feasible, but this matter still needs further discussion. Our current realm of cultivation is not yet sufficient. It’s not too late to enter the Upper Realm when everything is ready,” he said.
“As for this period, I plan to communicate with the entity at the other end of the altar, to gauge their intentions.”
Li Xiaobai nodded.
“This will be easy. My fellow brothers and sisters and I haven’t cultivated for a month, yet our cultivation levels have still reached the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. If we start practicing seriously, breaking through the Mahayana Realm before the distribution of Immortal Spirit Qi is not a problem,” Ling Feng said with full confidence, excited at the thought of a communication channel with the Upper Realm existing in the Immortal Spirit Continent.
Li Xiaobai sighed inwardly, realizing that his senior brothers and sisters seemed unaware of the irregularity of the situation.
“Senior brothers, we must not be careless. The fact that the Upper Realm can make contact with the Immortal Spirit Continent is definitely not good news. The Vice Leader has concluded that the cultivators from the Upper Realm have designs on the Immortal Spirit Continent.”
“If one altar can appear, then a second and third can appear as well. Perhaps, in places unknown to us, others are also communicating with the Upper Realm.”
“If we don’t know their purpose, we can’t afford to let our guard down.”
To their surprise, Su Yunbing and the others appeared to take this for granted.
“Of course, no one’s a fool. But in the end, this is a world where strength speaks. The power of Upper Realm cultivators is undoubtedly beyond the Immortal Spirit Continent’s capability to contend with. We can’t stop them from doing what they want,” she said.
“Only by entering the Upper Realm and cultivating to acquire higher-level powers do we have the qualifications to contend and communicate with them.”
