Leveling Up And Becoming Undefeatable

After a lot of deliberation, Misty Cloud Academy ultimately made no decision.

No one was sent to the Hai family.

They also recalled the elders who had recently gone out to search for Luo Tian.

Ghost Servant has never failed a mission before.

Clearly, Luo Tian was no longer in this world. Although it was a pity, the Misty Cloud Academy was stuck in a helpless situation.

It wasn’t because the Misty Cloud Academy was afraid of the Hai family.

The Misty Cloud Academy was the strongest academy in the Central Continent, and its overall strength was not weaker than the Hai family. They were considered slightly stronger than them. However, there was one person in the Hai family that Misty Cloud Academy was extremely wary of: Hai Huanglong!

He was the so-called prince of the Hai family.

Ever since his birth, his existence in the Hai family had been suppressing Misty Cloud Academy.

His potential and talent were the best in the Central Continent, maybe even the best in the Ancient World within the last hundreds of thousands of years. His power was unparalleled, and he was also the youngest sorcerer in the world. His name basically resonated throughout the entire Ancient World.

When climbing Heaven’s Chosen Mountain, he reached an unprecedented height.

Among the Heaven’s Chosen Power possessed by the many sorcerers, his Heaven’s Chosen Power was the most powerful and profound. He was also hailed as the Child of Heaven!

A person chosen by the heavens.

Someone who would become a god sooner or later.

The dean of Misty Cloud Academy was wary of him.

Even though Luo Tian was a genius that only appeared once every thousand years, and his combat ability and cultivation methods were incredibly unique, he was still merely a good seedling to the Misty Cloud Academy. However, when compared to the prince, he seemed a bit insignificant.

The pressure the prince exerted on the Misty Cloud Academy was too great.

Whether it was him or the Hai family, they were both very powerful. More importantly, he also had a master that was an even more terrifying existence!

Three days later, the other side of the Boundless Mountain Range.

“We’re out!”

“We’re finally out!”

“Hahaha, I can’t believe we were able to cross the Boundless Mountains! It’s too unexpected! It’s so good to be alive!”

“It was all because our boss is mighty!”

The fifty-plus members of the Bai family walked out of the Boundless Mountains.

After three days and three nights of trekking, each of them looked quite disheveled.

However, when they looked at Boundless City in the distance, they knew they had made it out. Crossing the Boundless Mountains was a miracle for them. When they first entered the mountains, they never thought they would make it out alive. They only thought about following Luo Tian. Where would they end up? They had no idea.

This time, not only did they make it out alive, but each of their cultivations had surpassed their limits. And their talents had transformed in an unparalleled way.

It allowed them to leap into the ranks of martial artists who could become disciples with super talents.

They hadn’t fully grasped that yet.

But it wouldn’t be long before they would feel the benefits of what having a super talent brings.

Bai Lingling walked to Luo Tian’s side and said, “Boundless City is just ahead.”

Luo Tian looked at the towering Boundless Mountain Range and muttered, “I wonder how the Second Elder and the others are doing?”

This had been his greatest worry for the past three days.

However, the fact that the Hai family powerhouse hadn’t caught up in three days also showed that Niu Haishan had stalled him. Otherwise, with their speed, it would have been impossible for them to escape. Luo Tian exhaled and said, “Second Elder, no matter what, thank you! I hope you can enter the underworld and begin the cycle of reincarnation safely. And I will definitely take revenge for you against the Hai family!”

After saying that, Luo Tian shifted his gaze to Boundless City in the distance. He raised his arm and shouted, “Let’s head into the city!”

“Yeah!”

“Hahaha, we’re going into the city! I will definitely have a big meal there!”

“After half a month of running, we can finally relax today.”

“Yeah, we’ve escaped the Boundless Mountains and gotten rid of the Deng family. Now we don’t have to worry all the time anymore.”

The faces of the many Bai family disciples were filled with joyous smiles.

The past half month had been rather difficult for them.

Luo Tian wasn’t feeling relaxed like the others. They had escaped the Deng family’s pursuit and the pursuit of the Hai family’s experts. But his intuition told him that the Hai family would definitely not let this go and would definitely send another assassin.

“I need to figure out a plan as soon as possible. Otherwise…” Luo Tian’s brow furrowed. He glanced at the many joyous Bai family brothers and thought to himself, “We are too big of a target. We need to split up.”

Bai Xiong smiled innocently and said, “Boss, what are you thinking about? Let’s hurry down the mountain. When we get to Boundless City, we can have a good drink and a good bath. In ten days, it’ll be the second round of selections for the Misty Cloud Academy.”

“Then, if we pass the second round, Deng Leigong won’t dare to touch us even if he has a lot of power. As a student, and with Misty Cloud Academy protecting us, I’ll eventually make Deng Leigong pay. I will avenge my father!”

Luo Tian merely smiled in response. What Bai Xiong said was right. He was also too tired after half a month of running.

He needed to rest, reorganize himself, and then think about other things.

Besides, there were still ten days until the second round of selections for the Misty Cloud Academy. As long as they could pass, they would be protected by the academy. Then, even the Hai family wouldn’t be able to easily touch them, right?

Luo Tian didn’t know what had occurred in Misty Cloud City. His thinking was a bit too idealistic.

Their group suddenly stopped, and some type of argument ensued.

A Bai family disciple quickly ran to Luo Tian’s side and said, “Boss, there’s an eight-man team blocking our way. The clothes they’re wearing look like they’re from the Boundless City guards. They’re demanding that we pay a fee to exit the mountains.”

Luo Tian was briefly stunned before asking, “A toll?”

“Yes, and they’re insulting us about it.”

Luo Tian furrowed his brows as he walked forward.

On the small path leading down the mountain stood eight guards, all at the peak of the  Condensation Element realm. The clothes they wore were embroidered with the symbol of Boundless City, clearly indicating that they were guards of it.

Luo Tian smiled slightly and asked, “Excuse me, how much is the toll that we need to pay?”

The leading guard looked at Luo Tian coldly and sneered disdainfully, “This much!”

As he spoke, he raised his middle finger.

Luo Tian’s eyes narrowed before asking, “One xuan coin per person?”

“Shit! Do you think we, the guards of Boundless City, are beggars?!”

“I’m saying 100,000 xuan coins!” The burly leader shouted abruptly, his eyes glaring fiercely at Luo Tian. Seeing the tired expressions on Luo Tian and his group, his face showed even more disdain.

The main reason for their exhaustion was the depletion of their yuan energy.

If a martial artist still had an abundance of yuan energy in their body, they wouldn’t show signs of exhaustion.

After three days and three nights of trekking, the Bai family disciples had used all their strength under Luo Tian’s constant urging. At this point, they had almost depleted their yuan energy and even their physical strength. Just being able to walk was quite impressive.

It was precisely because the guard saw this that he became so confident and fearless.

Bai Xiong immediately became enraged and shouted, “100,000 xuan coins?! Are you crazy?! You might as well rob us!”

The guard sneered and said disdainfully, “What? You can’t afford it? If you can’t, then go back into the mountains! What are you doing coming down? A bunch of poor country bumpkins. If you don’t have money, you shouldn’t have come! Cheh~”

“Hahaha…”

“Brother Meng, look at these people. They’re basically beggars. Calling them country bumpkins is an insult to those living in the countryside! Hahaha…”

“Yeah, look at what they’re wearing. It’s obvious they’re a bunch of poor ghosts.”

“Scram back into the mountains!”

Luo Tian didn’t have 100,000 xuan coins.

However, Bai Qi had given the Bai family’s savings to Bai Lingling so they could technically come up with 100,000 xuan coins.

But this was the Bai family’s development fund, and it absolutely could not be wasted.

Bai Lingling glanced at the angry Bai family disciples around her before walking up to Luo Tian’s side and said, “Our people have all used up their yuan energy. Right now, we need to find a place to rest and recover. It’s not good to have a conflict right now. One hundred thousand xuan coins it is. I have a lot left here, enough to cover it.”

Before Luo Tian could say anything, the leading guard pushed Luo Tian aside and walked directly to Bai Lingling. He revealed a lewd smile and swallowed hard before saying, “Oh? There’s actually such a little beauty out in this desolate wilderness.”

“It’s different if you have a little beauty with you.”

“I don’t want the 100,000 xuan coins anymore. Just let me play with this little beauty for a few days. If you make me, Brother Meng happy, everything is negotiable. Hahaha…”

As he spoke, he reached out to grab Bai Lingling’s hand while saying lewdly, “Little beauty, follow me, Brother Meng, and I guarantee you’ll eat and drink your fill. You will experience endless wealth and glory. Hahaha… Come on.”

But Bai Lingling stood there without moving. The guard’s hand couldn’t even reach her hand at all because his body had frozen in place.

A hand was resting on his shoulder.

The guard instantly flew into a rage, shouting loudly, “Who’s the one courting death?! You motherfucker, you’re asking for it!”

He turned around and grabbed the hand on his shoulder. He was planning to seize the hand and twist it away before breaking it. However, even though he tried his hardest, he still couldn’t remove the hand from his shoulder. He stared at Luo Tian, the person who he had casually pushed aside earlier. The guard’s expression changed as he roared in rage, “You bastard…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Luo Tian’s fingers turned into claws. He gripped the guard’s shoulder and applied force.

“Crunch~!”

“Crack~, crack~, crack~…”

The bones beneath his shoulder shattered, and the guard’s arm instantly hung limp. He couldn’t exert any strength. His face instantly turned pale before he shouted in pain, “You bastard, you’re courting death! Quick! Kill him for me!”

“Agghhhhh, it hurts so much!”

The other seven guards quickly surrounded Luo Tian.

Lin Dong also shouted instantly, “If you dare touch even a hair of our boss, I will kill you all!”

The fifty-plus members of the Bai family instantly turned into fierce bandits directly surrounding the eight guards.

The guards were so frightened that they didn’t dare to move.

Luo Tian released his grip, and that guard instantly collapsed to the ground. He rolled around in pain for a bit, covered in sweat. When he stopped, his eyes stared fixedly at Luo Tian, filled with killing intent. He then said fiercely, “Do you know who I am?! You dare touch me?! I’m going to make sure you all regret it!”

“Your mouth is still so filthy, huh?”

As soon as Luo Tian’s voice faded, he slapped the guard.

“Pak~!”

He directly sent the guard flying, and one side of his cheek swelled up like a pig’s head. All of his front teeth flew out while his mouth was mumbling incoherently, but his eyes remained as furious as ever.

Luo Tian walked up to him and sneered, “So, Mr. Guard, do we still need to pay the toll?”

At first, the guard was still a little stubborn, but when Luo Tian raised his palm again, his head shook like a rattle-drum. He said through what was left of his teeth, “N-n-no, no, no need, no need.”

Luo Tian gently patted his swollen cheek and said with a smile, “Now that’s a good boy!”

After saying that, Luo Tian slowly stood up and looked at the guard on the ground, whose eyes were still filled with killing intent.

Luo Tian was still feeling pissed off when he saw the guard’s eyes, so he suddenly stomped down hard with a cold shout, “You dare touch my woman?! It was you that courted your own death!”

That guard was killed with a single stomp of the leg!

The faces of the other seven guards suddenly changed. They wanted to fight, but they were ultimately intimidated by just one glare from Luo Tian.

“Ding!”

“Congratulations to player Luo Tian for killing Yin Feng. You have gained 100 experience points, 100 yuan energy…”

“Ding!”

“Sin points +1.”

Those alert tones went off in Luo Tian’s mind.

Luo Tian would never be soft on those kinds of people. The guard’s cultivation may seem insignificant, but these kinds of people were despicable and insidious. If Luo Tian allowed him to stay alive, he might bring great harm to Bai Lingling and the other Bai family brothers in the future.

At the same time, Luo Tian was using his actions to warn the forces of Boundless City.

This daddy has arrived! You guys better not be a fucking pain in my ass and provoke me. Otherwise, I will kill you all!

A guard looked at Luo Tian with fear in his eyes, not because of Luo Tian’s strength but because of Yin Feng’s death. He sneered and said, “Do you know who he is? You killed him, and you still want to enter Boundless City? If I were you, I would hurry back into the mountains and never take another step near Boundless City.”

Luo Tian chuckled and said, “For those who deserve to die, I absolutely don’t care who they are. Even if he was the Heavenly Emperor himself, if they dare to touch my people, I will make them die without a burial!”

Luo Tian then waved his hand and shouted, “Let’s go!”

He didn’t continue with killing the other seven guards.

Luo Tian wasn’t a psychopathic killer. He might be a person who didn’t let those who deserved to die off, but if ordinary people didn’t provoke him, he wouldn’t easily kill them even if he could get sin points. He didn’t want sin points to control and change his character.

He was himself. Even if he had a system supporting him, he wouldn’t be controlled by it.

Watching Luo Tian and his group march toward Boundless City, the guard who had spoken earlier shouted loudly, “He was the Boundless City Lord’s biological nephew! Just wait to die!”

Luo Tian pretended not to hear it and continued forward.

Lin Dong walked next to Luo Tian and said, “According to rumors, the Boundless City Lord was once a student of the Misty Cloud Academy. I heard that his cultivation has already broken through the Great Diffusion realm, and he rules Boundless City with an iron fist.”

Bai Xiong then added, “Boss, will we be in danger going there?”

In a competition of strength, Luo Tian was not a match for someone in the Great Diffusion realm.

But he had no other choice right now. It was impossible for them to go back into the Boundless Mountains.

He could go back by himself, but the Bai family brothers couldn’t. They were too tired. They needed a place to rest, and they needed to eat to replenish their strength. He had no other path to take right now. They could only enter the city, even if it was dangerous inside!

At this moment, Bai Lingling added, “I remember my father once said that the patrol teams in Boundless City are all ten-man teams. The team we encountered earlier only had eight guards, right?”

Luo Tian’s brow twitched slightly, and a bad premonition rose up in his heart.

Looking at Boundless City in the distance, it seemed like a huge beast opening its jaws to devour them into the abyss.

Regardless of whether it was a mountain of knives or a sea of flames, Luo Tian and his group had to enter the city!

They needed to rest, and more importantly, they needed to participate in the second round of exams for the Misty Cloud Academy. Otherwise, crossing the Boundless Mountains would have been meaningless.

Boundless City, City Lord’s Manor.

“Good! They’re finally here!”

“I really didn’t expect a useless kid who hasn’t even reached the Martial Void realm to be able to cross the Boundless Mountains. It’s quite surprising. However… Nephew Deng, rest assured. As long as he comes to my territory, I, Yin Wuliang, will turn him into a dead person.” A man in his fifties smiled coldly.

Standing next to him was a person – Deng Leigong’s son.

He had arrived three days earlier.

He delivered his father’s handwritten letter to Yin Wuliang and offered him 100,000 xuan coins. With these things in mind, Yin Wuliang immediately agreed that as long as Luo Tian dared to show up, he would kill him immediately.

“Thank you very much, Uncle Yin. Next time, my father will come to thank you personally, and he will surely offer you a generous gift as thanks.” Deng Wumu said respectfully.

Yin Wuliang smiled slightly and said, “Your father is my senior, so this is just a small matter. There’s no need for thanks. I’ve heard that your father has already unified Towering Cloud City. Your Deng family’s strength has already reached the standard of a gold level force. When you break through to a gold level force, you will gain the favor of a big family. Then, your Deng family will become subordinate to a diamond or king level force. When that time comes, don’t forget your Uncle Yin.”

Deng Wumu cupped his hands and replied, “We definitely won’t forget.”

Deng Wumu thought to himself, “I didn’t think Yin Wuliang would have such a good information network at his disposal. He found out about these things in less than half a month when even I didn’t know. However… It seems that my father really managed to unify Towering Cloud City. If he integrates all the powers, it should be enough to reach the standard of a gold level force. Then, we can gain the favor of a big family. With the protection of a big family, even if Luo Tian has great potential and ability, he will never be a match for my Deng family! Humph~!”

“Moreover… Luo Tian, even if you can make breakthroughs quickly, there’s no way you would be a match for someone in the Great Diffusion realm in just half a month. Hurry up and come to Boundless City to die!”

At this time, a guard from Boundless City hurriedly entered the hall and whispered something into Yin Wuliang’s ear.

Yin Wuliang’s face darkened before exclaiming, “What did you say?!”

The guard repeated, “Yin Feng has been killed.”

Yin Wuliang’s face turned furious as he shouted, “Who dares to kill my nephew?! Do they have a death wish?!”

The guard replied, “It was Luo Tian!”

Yin Wuliang shook in rage. He suddenly threw a palm strike that shattered the chair beside him before shouting in a deep voice, “Luo Tian, you bastard! I’m going to use your head to accompany my nephew to burial! Where is he now?!”

The guard replied, “He’s almost at Boundless City.”

Yin Wuliang’s brow furrowed, and a cold, murderous smile appeared on his face.

Flowers were blooming inside Deng Wumu as he said to himself, “Luo Tian, oh, Luo Tian! You could have killed any other person possible, yet you had to kill Yin Wuliang’s nephew. Hahaha… you’re dead today!”
