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

Chapter 32



Chapter 32

Li Xiaobai felt a small surge of excitement. Indeed, venturing into the world to gain experience was the fastest way to become stronger. He had only been out for two days, and his defensive power was skyrocketing like a rocket.

He moved forward slightly. The battle situation in the arena was tense, with waves of energy rolling and Spiritual Energy fluctuations shaking the area.

The values on the Attribute Points panel kept jumping.

[Attribute Points +100…]

[Attribute Points +100…]

[Ding! Continuous sword qi attack detected, skill upgrade: Nine Revolutions Undying Sword Intent First Revolution.]

Nine Revolutions Undying Sword Intent First Revolution: The lifelong pursuit of a Sword Cultivator, infusing one’s will into the sword. When drawing the sword, one can use Sword Intent to defeat the opponent.

In the arena,

the battle between the two sides had reached an intense peak.

Yin Susu felt that something was amiss. The opponent was not as formidable as she had imagined. Although they were a bit stronger than her, it clearly was not to the extent that they could kill her.

Where then did the opponent’s confidence come from?

Could there be a trump card waiting to be played?

“Haha, the disciple of the Holy Demon Sect indeed has some skills. It’s just too bad that all of you are going to die here today,”

Zhang Rui struck out with a palm from mid-air, withdrawing from the fight. He flipped his wrist and pulled out a blood-red pearl.

“The Blood Spirit Bead!”

Yin Susu cried out in shock, and the others’ expressions changed dramatically as well.

The Blood Spirit Bead was a demonic magic treasure, refined through the blood sacrifice of hundreds, if not thousands, in a cruel manner. When used, it unleashed tremendous power, equivalent to a strike from a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

Given the size of the Blood Spirit Bead, it appeared that thousands of lives had been sacrificed for its making.

“Zhang Rui, you claim to be of a Righteous Sect, yet you resort to such despicable means!”

“If fellow members of the Daoist Sects find out, even Tianwu Sect won’t be able to protect you!”

The young man with a crew cut was horrified. With the Blood Spirit Bead in play, they might indeed all die here.

“I have already said that once all of you are dead, naturally, there will be no one left to tell the tale,”

Zhang Rui was very calm, holding the Blood Spirit Bead with full confidence.

“Surround them, don’t let anyone escape. Kill them!”

With a wave of his hand, several Tianwu Sect disciples charged toward the direction of Li Xiaobai and the others. They planned to start with the weakest to conserve time.

“Thousand Leaves Hand!”

“Falling Flowers Sword Technique!”

“Starlight Finger!”

A variety of techniques and cultivation methods swept over, but Li Xiaobai was unfazed, and his Attribute Points surged once more.

[Attribute Points +100…]

[Attribute Points +100…]

[Defensive Power: Indestructible Golden Body Second Revolution (0/20000) Can be advanced.]

At last, he had leveled up. Li Xiaobai’s face was filled with joy. It seemed that with each revolution, the required Attribute Points increased by ten thousand. He still had a long way to go!

The disciples of Tianwu Sect now looked alarmed. They had attacked with full force, yet their opponent did not suffer a single wound. Such strength was terrifying.

“Not good, there’s an expert here!”

“Retreat quickly!”

The group rapidly retreated, regrouping back to where Zhang Rui stood.

“Senior brother, there’s an expert on the other side. The situation has changed!”

Zhang Rui’s eyes narrowed slightly. He had also noticed Li Xiaobai’s exceptional ability. To withstand a full-force strike from a Golden Core Stage cultivator with his physical body and remain unscathed was indeed extraordinary.

Yin Susu and the others also retreated back to Li Xiaobai’s side, their faces filled with shock.

The little loli was telling the truth, after all, this guy was indeed a big shot!

“Senior, we have offended you before, please don’t hold a grudge and lend us your aid!”

Yin Susu made a formal bow and her gaze towards Li Xiaobai became even more complicated.

The flat-headed youth shrank back a bit, not daring to step forward, having been the one most vigorous in berating Li Xiaobai before.

“Small issue, is that bead in his hand really powerful?”

Li Xiaobai immediately got into the zone, drawing hostility first when encountering an enemy, as it had already become an instinctive reaction for him.

“That is the Blood Spirit Bead, forged through the blood sacrifice of thousands of people; it is a sinister magic treasure of immense power.”

“How strong is it?”

“Equivalent to one strike from a Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse.”

“So-so, I guess.”

Li Xiaobai, looking unfazed, walked slowly towards Zhang Rui, pondering how many Attribute Points he could gain if he swallowed the Blood Spirit Bead.

Now that his defensive power had advanced again, blocking an attack from a Nascent Soul Cultivator shouldn’t be a problem; he hoped this bead would prove to be powerful.

“If Zhang is not mistaken, you must be a body cultivator, right? Aspiring to follow the ancient deities to achieve sanctity with the physical body,” Zhang Rui said indifferently.

“Since you recognize it, then kneel down and scram.”

Li Xiaobai stood with his hands behind his back, his aura dominating.

“How arrogant. But you body cultivators only focus on the flesh, and this Blood Spirit Bead of mine targets the spirit sea of consciousness. If you don’t want to become an imbecile, you’d better leave now.”

“I am an unparalleled genius, blessed with boundless fortune; mere demonic deviants from the outside paths pose no threat to me.”

Li Xiaobai spared no effort in boasting and drawing hatred.

“Sharp-tongued kid, I had intended to let you off considering the difficulty of your cultivation, but since you’re so oblivious, then you might as well be buried along with them.”

Zhang Rui’s eyes were fierce as he suddenly activated the cultivation technique, urging the Blood Spirit Bead and throwing it towards Li Xiaobai and the others.

Most body cultivators have a lineage, and even Zhang Rui didn’t want to offend those law veins lightly, but since the other party insisted on meddling, he didn’t mind sending them on their way.

The Blood Spirit Bead floated in midair, with blood-colored light emerging and a dense, crimson aura enveloping everyone, reeking of blood.

Zhang Rui and several other cultivators urged the Blood Spirit Bead together, causing the sky to surge with wind and clouds, swirling with murderous aura and chilling gusts.

Li Xiaobai frowned, finding the smell of the bead too unpleasant; however, the Attribute Points continued to jump, clearly indicating the blood qi was toxic.

Yin Susu and the others behind him felt overwhelmed the moment they encountered the blood-colored aura; they were only at the Golden Core Stage and couldn’t withstand the might of the bead.

[Attribute Points +100…]

[Attribute Points +100…]

After assessing his physical condition, he found no significant issue; an attack from a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was just that.

Without further hesitation, he walked straight towards the Blood Spirit Bead.

In Zhang Rui’s eyes, filled with shock and disbelief, Li Xiaobai slowly extended a hand, plucked the Blood Spirit Bead, then opened his mouth wide and swallowed it.

As the Blood Spirit Bead went down his throat, red light chaotically streaked across his body, the violent spiritual energy rampaging inside him, his blood churning, and Li Xiaobai grunted.

Fortunately, multiple passive skills had strengthened his body, so the bead didn’t cause too much tumult.

After letting the rampant blood qi collide inside him for a while, the Blood Spirit Bead was completely transformed into Attribute Points.

[Attribute Points +1100…]

[Attribute Points +1000…]

[Attribute Points: 12000.]

All points on defense.

[Defensive Power: Second Turn of the Indestructible Golden Body (12000/20000) can advance.]

“Hehehe, thanks for the treat.”
