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

Chapter 685 -686: I’ll Ruin You!

“The Grand Emperor’s attack didn’t affect the demon head at all? He’s just feeling a bit hungry?”

“That’s impossible, it must be an act. What kind of being is the Grand Emperor? That golden figure is the unique Primodial Spirit Phantom of a Void Merging cultivator. Only a Primordial Spirit can defeat another Primordial Spirit, Li Xiaobai cannot possibly shatter the Grand Emperor’s!”

“Exactly, he must be bluffing!”

Listening to the slightly panicked cries of the crowd around her, Chen Yuanyuan bit her red lips until they were almost bleeding.

Where did it all go wrong? He was just a foolish young man played at the mercy of the Imperial Court, and if not for Prime Minister Zhang Liang wishing to seize the Cultivation Technique in his possession, he would have been discarded in the burial grounds long ago. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

How could he possibly be standing in the Imperial Palace’s grand hall, confronting the Grand Emperor as an equal?

“To kill you just like that would be letting you off too easily. Now, let me show you my Primordial Spirit,” said Li Xiaobai casually, rubbing his stomach as a golden glow surged around him.

Unlike the elder’s golden figure that floated out from between his eyebrows, Li Xiaobai’s whole body was glowing as a golden figure identical to him separated from his body.

As the golden phantom took two steps forward to stand independently in front of Li Xiaobai, the golden body swiftly solidified. In just one breath’s time, the phantom turned into a living golden being, looking exactly the same as Li Xiaobai.

It was essentially another Li Xiaobai.

“Worthy of being me, I do look a bit handsome,” Li Xiaobai nodded in approval, commenting.

“What should be said?” asked the golden Primordial Spirit.

“Fish him out,” Li Xiaobai directed, pointing at his own abdomen.

“Simple.”

The golden Primordial Spirit approached Li Xiaobai, its golden arm diving straight into his Dantian. The arm shook left and right as if it were fishing for something. Before long, it withdrew from his body, clutching an elderly golden figure in its palm, who was looking at him with a face full of fear.

“What… what are you?”

“How could I be captured by you?”

“You are that kid’s Primordial Spirit!”

“How can you be so large!”

“What are you going to do to me?”

The golden figure screamed shrilly, struggling ceaselessly within the palm of the golden Li Xiaobai, eyes full of terror. Just moments ago, as he was reveling in the thrill of killing within the Dantian, suddenly a giant golden hand descended from the sky and plucked him out. He had never before seen the terrifying fluctuations emanating from that hand and had no doubt that if that merciless hand were to crush down on him, he would be left with only one path, death!

For the first time, the elder panicked. The scene before him completely shattered his understanding and defied his comprehension. He never dreamt that this young man could be an unparalleled master.

How could a person’s Primordial Spirit possibly be so immense? It was the size of a grown adult, and just like him, it was a physically solid entity. Despite his dedicated cultivation for decades, he had only managed to condense a Primordial Spirit the size of his palm.

And yet, Li Xiaobai’s Primordial Spirit had appeared, overshadowing him with the stature of a giant, not even in the same league!

How did he achieve this? Even with a miraculous Cultivation Technique like the Spirit Realm Technique, it shouldn’t be possible to cultivate to this extent, should it?

“Old one, you’ve got quite the unique look!”

The golden Li Xiaobai lifted the elder’s golden Primordial Spirit, swinging it back and forth in front of him like a little chick.

“What should be done?”

“Should he be butchered?”

The golden Primordial Spirit turned to Li Xiaobai to ask.

“Just cripple his cultivation level for now, don’t be in a hurry to kill him.”

Li Xiaobai said indifferently.

“Simple.”

The golden Primordial Spirit nodded in reply.

“You… your Primordial Spirit has independent intelligence?”

“Is it a sentient being with its own consciousness?”

“You can actually converse with each other, how on earth is this possible!”

Witnessing the two Li Xiaobais before him chatting amiably, the elder felt more shocked and incredulous. In his view, this was absolutely impossible; after all, the Primordial Spirit is essentially oneself, one and the same. How could it be that the Primordial Spirit could engage in conversation with the physical body?

Just like a moment ago when his golden figure was moving inside Li Xiaobai’s body, it also required his guidance and control. Both were inseparable parts of a whole.

But the situation with Li Xiaobai and his Primordial Spirit shattered his understanding, leaving him with no choice but to be astonished!

Those surrounding onlookers didn’t know what to say anymore. They had originally thought that the Grand Emperor had subdued Li Xiaobai, but unexpectedly, a golden Primordial Spirit the size of an ordinary person had popped out of his body, directly capturing the aged golden figure.

From the looks of it, the golden figure had no power to resist at all, being manipulated and tormented in its hand as if it were a mere chick.

“Do you understand now? You’re nothing but a frog at the bottom of a well,” Li Xiaobai said coldly. “For all the hardships my little junior sister has suffered, I demand that you repay them a millionfold. First, I will strip you of your cultivation level, then I will slowly torture you!”

Li Xiaobai spoke with a sinister tone as his golden Primordial Spirit’s palms slammed together decisively, without the slightest hesitation, as if to crush the golden figure like a fly.

“Blood Soul Burst!”

“Li Xiaobai, you do have some skills, but don’t be too proud. It’s not so easy to kill someone at the Void Merging Realm. Once this old man has recovered for some time, regrouped the troops, that will be your end!”

The elder didn’t know what kind of sinister secret technique he used, but the golden figure suddenly exploded, turning into streams of light that re-entered his physical body. Then, his silhouette flickered, dashing out of the grand hall in an instant and disappearing into the sky with a few flashes.

He had realized that he could never defeat Li Xiaobai in a one-on-one fight. That vast and limitless Inner Strength, combined with the golden Primordial Spirit as tall as a man, had completely overwhelmed him in every aspect.

Compared to Li Xiaobai, he felt like he had lived the last few decades as if he were no better than a dog.

Had he known this would happen, he should have left his retreat earlier, wandering the world of men. Perhaps he would have already acquired the Spirit Realm Technique by then.

But there is no medicine for regret in this world; he needed to find the other two powerhouses of the Void Merging Realm, unite their forces, and deal with Li Xiaobai together. Only by eliminating this variable could they ensure the interests of everyone!

“What do you say?” the golden Primordial Spirit asked somewhat woodenly, its gaze, however, intently fixed on Chen Yuanyuan not far away.

Influenced by Li Xiaobai’s will, Chen Yuanyuan, like the elder, was on its hit list.

“First, disable this woman’s cultivation level, so she cannot run amok.”

“Simple.”

With one step, the golden Primordial Spirit crossed the distance and appeared right in front of Chen Yuanyuan. Before she could react, a golden palm plunged directly into her Dantian, stirring wildly.

“No, no, no, you can’t disable my cultivation level!”

“I was wrong, Young Master Li, I know my mistake, please spare me!”

“My father is the current emperor; just let me go and I will have him mobilize troops to find the fleeing Grand Emperor for you!”

“Gold and silver treasures, beautiful women, luxury cars, whatever you want I can give you!”

Chen Yuanyuan looked utterly panicked, desperately trying to push the golden Primordial Spirit away, but her hands passed straight through its body.

The Grand Emperor, whom she had relied on so heavily, had fled in the blink of an eye, plunging her into despair.

She had offended many over the years; without her cultivation level, she would surely not survive in this world!

Regrettably, the golden Primordial Spirit paid her no heed; after stirring inside her Dantian, it withdrew its hand, and simultaneously, Chen Yuanyuan spewed blood from her mouth as cracking sounds emanated from within her Dantian. Her lower abdomen was completely torn apart.

Blood and flesh blurred into one gory sight, too gruesome to behold.

“You’ve torn my Dantian, you’ve destroyed my cultivation level!”

“Li Xiaobai, you and I are irreconcilable!”
