The Illusory Realm.
All the cultivators were a little dumbstruck.
Water buffalo!
Water buffalo!There were water buffaloes everywhere!
Repeatedly, many people died and were resurrected, and vice versa. All of them died at the hands of the water buffaloes. After dying a few times, they still could not figure out where the water buffaloes came from?!
Did they belong to the association?
That would be too much!
…
Somewhere.
Lu Ming looked at the water buffalo that occasionally resurrected satisfactorily.Not bad.
The energy was increasing at a good pace.
Although some water buffaloes would be killed, they could obtain a lot of energy before they died. In total, it was an enormous gain for him.
Well…
Lu Ming was satisfied with his first round of harvests.
The objective of many people who were there was to gain life-and-death experiences. Lu Ming was different. He aimed to obtain the maximum amount of energy and then charge to four-star!
He wanted to continuously accumulate energy!
Was he really that lacking in talent?
He did not seem to be.
However, with an elder sister who could casually re-cultivate, Xiaobai who did not seem to have any bottlenecks and a few disciples who broke through as if they were consuming plain water…
What could he do about it?
He had to work hard if he did not want them to catch up with him!
Lu Ming’s current situation was not because he lacked talent but because he had ordinary talent. Yet, he wanted to break through at the speed of a genius.
He could only think of solutions and strive for it!
This was Lu Ming’s opportunity to break through!
Lu Ming could not afford to wait out the time it took for an ordinary peak three-star breakthrough!
Therefore, the appearance of these water buffaloes would enable him to increase his energy at a tenfold speed! This was to prepare him for the last charge!
He was not an idiot.
Spirits frequently appeared in Qing Ming City and there fissures were collapsing…
He was afraid that something big was going to happen!
Therefore…
He had to break through to four-star as soon as possible!
As for the other people’s experience?
Sigh.
Death was an experience!
Would they be able to see buffaloes that knew how to cultivate in real life?
No!
This was an experience that was beyond the imagination of the cultivators!
As cultivators, they should widen their horizons. He was helping them increase their knowledge and experience…
Buzz—
Lights and shadows flashed.
Lu Ming began to harvest again.
…
At this very moment…
At the Energy Warriors Association.
The vice president stared at the scenes of the Illusory Realm with a ghastly pale face.
Sure enough, something went wrong!
Damn!
Although letting these cultivators die was in line with the trial, this method of dying did not give them any experience and it was meaningless.
After all…
They wouldn’t encounter these assassin water buffaloes outside?!
They wouldn’t!
This was the only place where that was possible.
Therefore…
Tell me, what was the point of having such an experience?
Furthermore…
The purpose of the existence of the Illusory Realm was to let all the thirty-one cultivators experience life and death. He had not seen someone as cowardly as Lu Ming!
He hid behind a herd of buffaloes!
What was the point?
“Remove all the ferocious beasts in the Illusory Realm!” the vice president suddenly said.
“Huh?”
The assistant’s heart trembled. Simply remove them?
“It’s not that good for us to intervene in the rules of the Illusory Realm. However, we’re already at the second stage of the confrontation. The presence of those ferocious beasts is not very meaningful now…”
“Since this is the case… We might as well remove them.”
The vice-principal felt helpless. “Let this Lu Ming guy experience life and death.”
“Sure.”
The assistant understood.
Hence…
He made the arrangements.
…
At this very moment…
The Illusory Realm.
Those who had been accidentally killed by the water buffaloes had regained their senses.
They were heaven’s pride!
These people were extremely talented and quick-witted. They were slayed by the water buffaloes earlier because they did not expect that they knew how to cultivate…
Damn! Who would expect that?!
If you saw a buffalo passing by the river, would you contemplate whether it was cultivating as an Assassin, Elementalist or Energy Warrior?
Hence, they died because of the surprise attacks.
However, once they came back to their senses, the water buffaloes were no longer that much of a threat to them!
Furthermore—
They had already begun to exact revenge!
So what if the buffaloes were peak four-star?
So what if the buffaloes were beginner five-star?
Ultimately…
They were only buffaloes!
They did not have any mind of their own, they were soulless and could not completely release the skills of a five-star cultivator. They could only rely on their instincts to kill and were ultimately cannon fodder!
Swoosh!
One raging buffalo charged towards them.
Pfft!
Cold lights flashed.
It was blasted away instantly.
“Ludicrous!”
A peak three-star cultivator sneered coldly. It had ambushed and killed him once. Did it really think that he was easy to bully?! This was merely a buffalo!
Bang!
Bang!
He counter-attacked and subdued the four-star water buffalo.
Bang!
Bang!
The water buffalo was beaten till its last breath.
…
At the same time…
Similar combats were also happening in several other places.
Dazed and enraged by the surprise attack and death, they retaliated with vengeance, releasing powerful combat abilities and trampling the water buffalo!
“Bring it on!! Aren’t you amazing?”
A cultivator furiously rode a buffalo while violently whacking its body.
At that moment.
This damn water buffalo suddenly snuck a surprise attack and punched his bottom…. This was the first time in his life he experienced death that way… His asshole was blasted…
He was enraged!
…
Somewhere.
A cultivator’s figure was traversing the air.
He easily dodged the energy waves released by the water buffalo and sent it flying with a kick.
Sorry.
In face-to-face combat, you’re ultimately a beast.
…
The cultivators had the upper hand.
They even took the initiative to slaughter the water buffaloes. As long as they saw the water buffaloes, be they real or fake, they simply struck! They would kill them first!
The combat situation reversed instantly.
However…
Very soon…
Just as they successfully defeated the water buffaloes…
Suddenly…
There was a flash of light.
The water buffaloes actually disappeared in the air without any warning, leaving behind only vibrating, pink colored stuff. They were full of condensed energy and looked like treasure.
“Huh?”
“What is happening?”
“Why did the water buffaloes disappear?”
“This pink stuff… Don’t tell me it’s a weapon left behind by the water buffalo?”
Strange ideas flashed across some people’s minds.
“Look.
“A pink dagger…
“Could it be that, after dying a few times, these water buffaloes leave weapons behind? Is this something new in the Illusory Realm?”
They thought so.
Hence…
The cultivator looked at it automatically.
Many people approached the pink item which had fallen out, wanting to catch a clearer glimpse of it. Afterward…
Bang!
A mushroom cloud rose to the sky.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The ground trembled.
All of a sudden, the entire Illusory Realm was filled with mushrooms…
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
One by one, beams of white lights flickered.
The cultivators who approached the pink thing were already blasted to death before they could even come to their senses! They immediately turned into a streak of light and disappeared from their original spot!
Buzz—
Buzz—
A massive number of cultivators died.
…
At this very moment…
Lu Ming was still in the marshes.
These cultivators were too smart. The water buffaloes gradually lost their upper-hand. Therefore, he already planned to retrieve the vocation cores and then retreat from the marshes.
However…
When he found a few resurrected water buffaloes and removed their vocation cores…
Afterward, he saw mushroom clouds flood the sky!
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
This familiar aura…
Damn!
The vocation cores have self-destructed?!
This is shocking!
What exactly did these cultivators do that erupted the vocation cores? In that case, he would lose a large number of vocation cores which he had painstakingly accumulated?
However…
Before Lu Ming could start feeling upset, he saw the energy surrounding him beginning to increase exponentially…
Shush!
Shush!
Horrifying illusory energy surrounded him.
The accumulated illusory energy surrounding Lu Ming reached its peak again!
Eh?
Lu Ming scratched his head. What was happening?
Could it be that…
These cultivators went all out. To completely destroy these water buffaloes, they deliberately set off the vocation cores and perished together with the water buffaloes?
“But that would be too dumb…” Lu Ming muttered in a low voice.
This was the first time that he had doubts about the intelligence of these ‘geniuses’.
However…
He was unaware of something.
The geniuses were also very confused. Who the hell knew why those contraptions suddenly exploded?! They did not even know why the water buffaloes suddenly disappeared…
After thinking about it…
It seemed that the Energy Warrior Association had intervened!
“These old seniors are getting increasingly ridiculous.
“In order to kill us, they have forcefully increased the ways for us to die.
“Hahahaha.
“I heard that these old seniors haven’t been engaging in combat since their retirement. They may be having some mental problems… We have to be more careful.”
“Exactly.”
The geniuses were deeply convinced.
…
At this very moment…
The vice president’s face looked sullen.
To hell with it.
They intervened because they wanted to help them deal with Lu Ming. However, he did not know why the dead water buffaloes would explode.
In his mind, Lu Ming seemed to be controlling the water buffaloes with a particular card?
And…
What exactly was that pink stuff?
Nobody knew!
The strange pink stuff also exploded in a flash!
The geniuses in the Illusory Realm did not manage to catch a glimpse of it, much less the old seniors such as the vice president who were watching from afar! They could not see anything at all!
As such…
They could only take it as a side effect of Lu Ming controlling the water buffaloes…
Thankfully…
The damn water buffaloes finally disappeared.
However…
The vice president glanced at the data of the Illusory Realm.
The energy accumulated by Lu Ming alone was more than the aggregate energy accumulated by everyone else. Judging from his earlier behavior, this chap might simply find a cave and idle until the entire event ended!
To hell with it!
This is a place of trial!
Do you have to be this cowardly when participating in a trial?!
We already said that it was fine to die here!
How can you be that cowardly?!
Very well.
Since you’re not cooperating, we will force you to do so.
“Made this data known to everyone!” the vice president said coldly.
“This doesn’t seem too appropriate.”
The assistant smiled bitterly.
They had made known the data to everyone before.
After all…
Many people knew one another during this stage.
When everyone was shying away from attacks as they wanted to give each other face, this would be a form of stimulation to spur them on. However, the situation was rather different now.
Well…
He glanced at the data. Once this data was broadcast, he reckoned that the entire world would be after Lu Ming’s life! Was this still the Illusory Realm? It would simply be everyone chasing one individual – Lu Ming!
“It’s okay.”
The vice president smiled and said in a relishing tone, “We cannot allow unfair treatment in the Illusory Realm. To our association, Lu Ming is a very significant person. How can we let him miss the special service of our Illusory Realm? Haha, we have to let every participant experience life and death.
“As a fair and just association, we have to know how to give equal treatment to all…
“The situation is unique now. We’ll take care of Lu Ming first.
“Hehe.
“When he regains his energy, he will naturally be back to normal.”
He took a glance.
Given Lu Ming’s current energy, he reckoned that he would need to be killed a few dozen times…
Hehe.
Who told you to hide!
Hope you have a good experience of the Illusory Realm’s charm…
…
At this very moment…
In the Illusory Realm.
All the cultivators’ data was suddenly exposed.
Shush!
First place: Lu Ming…
Eh?
They were stunned after one glance. The results were not sensical. In comparison to the scores of other people, Lu Ming’s score had two more zeros behind it!
“Damn!
“How is this possible?!
“”How could he possibly accumulate that much energy?” someone said indignantly.
He had been hunting ferocious beasts and accumulating energy right from the start. He even slayed three cultivators who were rather powerful. He had not died since!
He even dodged the most dangerous water buffalo storm!
However…
His energy was not even one percent of Lu Ming’s!
On what grounds!
How was this possible?!
He could not be bothered anymore. He would look for Lu Ming!
…
Somewhere.
Two cultivators who were engaged in a fight saw each other’s data. With a humbled look, they stopped and decided to join forces and look for Lu Ming.
…
Killing ten opponents was not even tantamount to killing one Lu Ming!
Since this was the case…
Why should they continue fighting?!
…
The search had begun.
The target had been secured — Lu Ming!
“This way.”
Two figures quietly moved in a specific direction. The two of them had agreed to go there together for the purpose of maximizing their gains!
Lu Ming…
Hehe.
They were going to take him on.
“Hurry, kill him first before those guys find him.”
“Yes.”
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Very soon…
They discovered the target.
“Lu Ming is here!”
“Go!”
…
At this very moment…
Lu Ming was walking in the hills and forest.
When he saw the published data, he knew that something was amiss and quickly escaped. However, he did not expect to be targeted by people who had means to detect him.
Along the road, he could sense a faint aura shadowing him.
Suddenly…
Two figures appeared.
“It’s coming!”
Lu Ming grew solemn.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
A shadow dashed towards him at lighting speed.
“Go!”
Lu Ming had the least hesitation.
One against two. This was completely unnecessary!
Furthermore, if the commotion was too great and attracted attention, he would be besieged.
Shush!
Lu Ming turned around and ran.
The two shadows chased him at lightning speed. Seeing that they were going to catch up with Lu Ming, a bottomless cliff suddenly appeared before their eyes…
This was a stimulation in the Illusory Realm.
It was bottomless!
They would definitely die if they jumped!
Lu Ming jumped into it instantly.
The two people who were chasing Lu Ming glanced at each other. Without any hesitation, they followed Lu Ming and jumped off the cliff. As long as they could kill Lu Ming before they fell to the ground…
Haha!
One-tenth of Lu Ming’s energy was more than the aggregate of that of the both of them!
They would gain a lot!
Hence…
Right on the heels of Lu Ming, the duo also leaped into the abyss and chased Lu Ming…
“Hurry!”
“Slay Lu Ming before he drops into the abyss!
“Understood.”
The duo was filled with murderous intent, their gazes firm.
Afterward…
Suddenly…
They were terrified to discover that Lu Ming, who was supposed to fall into the abyss with them, was floating upwards in a leisurely manner. Up, up and up…
“Damn! He’s flying!!!”
“How is that possible?!”
Dumbstruck, the duo looked at Lu Ming, who was getting further and further away from them. Their eyes were filled with despair.
Sword Card Masters…
Why is it that they can fly?!
