“Why is the person inside the Formation alright?”

The cultivators gathered outside the fourth Formation had all come together. The scene they had just witnessed was too terrifying; so many cultivators were dealt with in an instant, which genuinely chilled them to the bone.

However, the sight of Li Xiaobai, who was still moving about in the Formation, quickly drew their attention. A cultivator who could walk freely within the Formation made their jaws drop in shock.

The cultivators who had just perished were probably lured into the Formation thinking that Li Xiaobai, unharmed, had found the Gate of Life, only to be trapped and killed within.

“Is he actually picking up Space Rings?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“This person is cunning and his strength is unfathomable. These cultivators were all tricked and killed by him!”

“It’s unbelievable. Just now, I saw Zhao Hao, a disciple of the Array Formation Sect, also died. I need to report this to the Sect Elder!”

“I must do the same. This test is extremely odd, and with such a person watching, I dare not go any further!”

As they watched the figure busily picking up Space Rings on the ground, the cultivators dispersed in an instant, retreating and preparing to leave the premises of the Array Formation Sect’s competition. The high-ranking members of their sects were waiting outside; they needed to inform them of the situation.

Zhao Hao was not a low-ranking member within the Array Formation Sect. Although his cultivation level was average, he was the cousin of the Saint Heir. His death during the trial was a serious matter that had to be reported to the Sect Elder immediately.

Tian Hui and Wanying were ashen-faced, staring fixedly at the man swiftly collecting Space Rings on the ground ahead.

At this moment, Li Xiaobai was agile in his movements, his eyes sparkling with intelligence—nowhere near the dull and naive demeanor he had shown previously.

Never had they imagined that such a real powerhouse had been with them all along.

“Wanying, we must be more polite when we encounter such cultivators in the future. We must not be as reckless as before,” Tian Hui said with a serious expression, sternly advising.

“Sister Tian Hui, I was wrong. I’ll never judge people by their appearance again!” Wanying said blankly, sweat beading on her forehead. It was terrifying; she had been reprimanding a great figure all this time. Fortunately, the Great Demon King did not hold it against her; otherwise, a single thought of his could have made her soul scatter to the winds.

Inside the Formation, Li Xiaobai was gleefully picking up Space Rings.

He could never have dreamed that this round would bring such an unexpected windfall. The Space Rings of dozens of cultivators with decent cultivation levels were a significant fortune, not to mention that among them was someone with connections like Zhao Hao.

With a harvest of Spirit Stones and Magic Treasures, Li Xiaobai felt that this was a decent way to make a fortune.

As for tricking people, he had to refuse the blame; he had been speaking the truth. Being within the Formation, he truly hadn’t felt even a hair’s breadth of sensation—that the cultivators had chosen to imagine otherwise was not his fault.

Suppressing the urge to use Hundred Percent Barehanded Blade Catch, he swept up the spoils of battle. Now was not the time to use his skill, and with Tian Hui present, Li Xiaobai did not want to kill indiscriminately.

Humming a tune, he continued to move forward. The Formation had been completely activated, and the path Li Xiaobai walked was akin to a minefield. Even though the Attribute Points he gained were not substantial, the golden dragon in the sky was indeed enraged.

Four Golden Dragons rushed at him, clawing at Li Xiaobai.

Li Xiaobai felt no pain or itch and continued to walk at an unhurried pace. This Golden Dragon didn’t seem very powerful, considering the limited Attribute Points it provided.

Along the way, the cultivators still struggling in the trial watched him in amazement. Li Xiaobai’s presence left them shocked beyond words; he walked freely through the Formation, unaffected by the four Golden Dragons—the core of the Formation’s defenses. What kind of cultivation level and strength must he have?

Surely this was ridiculously powerful?

“Brother, doesn’t it hurt?”

One of the cultivators couldn’t help but ask.

“Well, it’s okay, just feels a bit ticklish. Nothing else really,”

Li Xiaobai hummed in reply, speaking indifferently.

“Great Demon King!”

“This is the true Great Demon King!”

“`

“Who exactly is this person, to be able to walk horizontally through a Trap Formation like this? Even a Saint Heir of the Array Formation Sect doesn’t have this kind of strength, does he?”

“I think the Saint Heir’s ranking is in jeopardy this time!”

“This person is so strong it’s almost cheating. Do you think he has some sort of Magic Treasure that can break the Formation?”

“Stop talking; the Golden Dragon is following him now. We have a chance, hurry up and break the Formation!”

The cultivators whispered to each other, engaged in a heated discussion about Li Xiaobai’s cultivation level. In their view, the fourth layer of the Formation seemed almost unsolvable, and despite having traveled more than half the distance, they could see no hope of success.

However, Li Xiaobai’s appearance greatly alleviated the pressure on the other cultivators. The Golden Dragon was the core of this Formation, and now that it was following him, they faced much less pressure from the Trap Formation. With careful manipulation, they might be able to rush out of the Formation in one go.

For a moment, the cultivators became busy again.

With no pressure in the fourth Formation, Li Xiaobai easily reached its edge.

Once Reflect was activated, the four Golden Dragons on his body instantly turned into a pile of ashes, dissipating like chaff.

This scene nearly made the cultivators, who had stopped in front of the fifth layer of the Formation, fall on their bottoms in fright, their eyes nearly popping out of their heads.

The Golden Dragons they had spent great effort to avoid were now biting at a cultivator, who, astonishingly, remained completely unharmed. What was even more preposterous was that upon a slight tremble of the cultivator’s body, the Golden Dragons turned into chaff. Was this even the same Formation they knew?

“Who is this person?”

“I don’t know, I’ve never seen him before. He looks quite ordinary.”

“Don’t talk, someone who can crush Golden Dragons with his physical body must be a great predecessor. Be quiet and watch, don’t get noticed!”

“Keep it down, low-profile, low-profile!”

“Look, that predecessor just walked straight through the fifth Formation!”

The cultivators exclaimed, their eyes fixed on Li Xiaobai, watching as he emerged unscathed from the fourth Formation and then strolled leisurely into the fifth Formation.

Their faces were expressionless. Couldn’t they show some respect to the Formation? This was the fifth Formation, an existence that even those at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage wouldn’t underestimate. Couldn’t they show it some respect?

Meanwhile, a large number of cultivators surged from the fourth Formation. With the four Golden Dragons broken and the Formation ineffective, they had picked up a great bargain.

“Where did that great person go?”

Asked a cultivator who had emerged from the fourth Formation.

“Inside, he just went in.”

A cultivator in front of the fifth Formation pointed blankly at the figure within the Formation and said.

“Good, we haven’t lost track of the big shot’s footsteps!”

“Right, following the big shot, we’re sure to secure a decent ranking this time!”

The cultivators’ faces lit up with joy, not expecting to be so lucky today to have a big shot leading the way for the whole field.

“What’s the background of that predecessor? He seems very powerful.”

“Powerful is an understatement. Let me tell you, the cultivation of our predecessors is not something we can speculate about. We just need to wait a little, and this great Formation will be destroyed by the predecessor. After that, we can easily advance!”

“Goodness…”

“Look, the predecessor is moving!”

A keen-eyed cultivator pointed at the figure in the Formation and shouted, as everyone turned to look in the direction of the pointing finger.

They saw the figure in the Formation slowly turn around to face the crowd, holding a longsword in hand, slowly raising it above their head and then slashing down fiercely.

“Hundred Percent Barehanded Blade Catch!”
