I Don t Want to Get Hurt, So I ll Max Out My Defense - Chapter 723

Chapter 723: Chapter 724 What Do You Have to Be Arrogant About?

Looking at the crowd in front of him that resembled ancient deities, the middle-aged man squeezed out a smile that looked uglier than crying.

The scene just now had indeed sent chills down his spine, deeply imprinting itself in his heart to the point where he didn’t dare to probe the strength and cultivation levels of the few individuals before him.

The man’s heart was screaming in terror, unable to comprehend what mistake had happened with the altar’s passageway. He was clearly meant to descend to the Lower Realm, but why had he encountered such a terrifying group of beings?

This is the Barbaric Lands, right?

Shouldn’t the beings here be extremely weak?

“Ahem, this is the Lower Realm, do you not remember old beggar?”

The old beggar squeezed in and winked at him.

“No… this can’t be possible, how could the Earth Spirit Realm be this terrifying?”

“Please, esteemed seniors, don’t joke, the Earth Spirit Realm is just the Barbaric Lands, nothing but creatures raised in pigsties!”

“I, Hu Zuo from the Central Origin Realm, am merely a loose cultivator who mistakenly trespassed into this place, I beg you seniors to spare my life!”

The man was still making his last-ditch plea.

“Has this guy gone mad?” Kraken frowned and said.

“Feels like he can’t understand what we’re saying, are all people from the Upper Realm like this?” The old beggar rubbed his teeth and clicked his tongue in wonder.

“What should we do with him, tie him up first?” The Old Dragon King asked.

“No need for such trouble, let’s just search his soul directly to see what sort of characters have come from the Upper Realm this time,” Liuren spoke indifferently.

“Let me have a taste first,” Li Xiaobai licked his lips as a massive Heart of the Blood Demon throbbed behind him, with countless blood-red tentacles writhing and floating in the void, glamorous and menacing.

Suddenly, a fishy stench drifted into everyone’s noses, causing them to frown slightly and look towards the source of the smell.

At that moment, the pants of the middle-aged man held aloft by Godzilla became slightly damp, with an unknown pale-yellow liquid dripping down his trouser leg, the unspeakable fishy stench emanating from his underpants.

The guy had actually been scared to the point of wetting himself!

“Isn’t that a bit spineless?” Long Xue said with some disdain, his performance somewhat tarnishing the perfect image of the Upper Realm in her mind.

“Hm? You don’t have any Immortal Spirit Qi in you?”

Reminded by Long Xue’s words, the man only then noticed the presence of a few City Lords in the vicinity. Unlike those terrifying beings, these people had not a trace of Immortal Spirit Qi in them, only lower-grade Spiritual Power. Judging from their cultivation levels, they should only be Great Crossing Realm Cultivators from the Earth Spirit Realm.

He asked with sudden astonishment, “Is this place really the Earth Spirit Realm?”

“What’s the Earth Spirit Realm?” Kraken asked.

“The Earth Spirit Realm is the Lower Realm, which is also what you call the Immortal Spirit Continent.”

The man began explaining, boldly sensing the strength and cultivation levels of the people before him, and his expression instantly changed. His eyes became sharp, and the powerful Immortal Spirit Qi in his body burst forth like a tide sweeping in all directions. In an instant, he repelled Godzilla and glared furiously at the few people before him.

“Damn it, how bold! You almost had me fooled. Not one of you is even at the Human Immortal Realm, yet you dare to act like big shots in front of me!”

“Just being at the Half-step Human Immortal Realm, and you dare to capture me? Who gave you the audacity?”

“You cur, how dare you capture me, die!”

Fury burned within the middle-aged man’s heart, his eyes a fierce red as he waved his hand, unleashing endless waves of Immortal Spirit Qi. In an instant, he sent two Godzillas flying.

His lungs were about to burst with rage, having been deceived by the mere appearance of a few insignificant demonic beasts, and to have been humiliated in front of these ants was a severe blow to his dignity.

Reflecting on it now, it was just a demonic beast with dragon bloodline, along with a slightly larger Kraken that had bluffed him, and what infuriated him the most was that the two strange, gigantic demonic beasts beside him had nothing remarkable about them except for slightly stronger defenses, yet he was captured by such trash because he was too afraid.

It was a complete loss of face!

[Attribute Points+60000…]

[Attribute Points+60000…]

[Attribute Points+60000…]

Godzilla took a heavy hit, and the damage was converted into attribute points, automatically feeding back into the system. Li Xiaobai’s gaze was also somewhat strange. Based on the attribute points, this guy should also only be at the Half-step Human Immortal realm. What’s there to be arrogant about, why suddenly change his temperament?

“Uh… I really think his brain is damaged,” the Kraken said somewhat dumbfounded, unable to comprehend what was going on—the one second terrified to death, nearly peeing his pants, and the next second fighting with full confidence.

“Yeah, this guy is just like us, also a Half-step Human Immortal. What’s there to be proud of?” the old beggar also didn’t understand.

“Perhaps he thinks he has a chance now?” Liuren tightened his grip on the long stick, ready to take action.

“Although this king has always felt that it’s natural for those in the Upper Realm to be confident due to their strong capabilities, this person is still a bit too overconfident, with a sort of mysterious sense of superiority,” the Old Dragon King said, nodding in agreement.

“As long as they fight, it’s worth the ticket price. I didn’t waste my twenty million top-grade Spirit Stones.”

Two Godzillas grappled with the man, and Li Xiaobai actually felt a sense of relief in his heart, no longer as indignant as he had been at the start.

Watching the man’s performance with the two Godzillas in the arena, everyone’s thoughts were different.

“Hehe, ignorance truly is bliss!”

“I am a cultivator from the Upper Realm, cultivating Immortal Spirit Qi within my body, which is worlds apart from the low-grade power you barbarians are constantly in touch with!”

“The power difference between you and me is essentially huge. You dared to make a fool of me in public, today you all will die!”

The man in grey was filled with malicious resentment, the surging killing intent crazily overflowing towards everyone, the Immortal Spirit Qi erupting and blasting out vast chasms on the ground.

“Sun Palm!”

The Immortal Spirit Qi gathered to form a massive, fiery-red palm imprint in the air, utterly charring everything in its path. It descended from the sky with scorching heat, aiming to flatten the people below into mush.

“Everybody move aside, let the old beggar try out the Upper Realm’s Cultivation Technique, Iron Bone Fist!”

The old beggar yelled wildly, positioned himself properly in a horse stance, and threw a punch right at the massive palm descending from the sky.

“Don’t make me laugh, your technique was given by me. Let me tell you the truth, it’s the lowest-level technique, street vendor goods. Even the sect’s menial disciples despise it. The pigs from the Lower Realm truly have no knowledge at all,” the man sneered venomously.

But what happened next nearly made him pop his eyes out. That ordinary punch almost effortlessly penetrated the Sun Palm, crushing it into powder.

“Heh heh, sure enough, the old beggar is an invincible presence wherever he goes, too superior to have any peers!”

“How is this possible, a mere Half-step Human Immortal from the Lower Realm, how could he possess this kind of strength!”

The man screamed in disbelief. To easily penetrate his palm technique, one would need an enormous amount of Immortal Spirit Qi, as well as intense purity of power. How could a Lower Realm cultivator achieve this?

After a light test of his strength, the old beggar seemed very excited, and with a backhand slap, he knocked the man to the ground, rubbing his dirty, smelly foot over the man’s face repeatedly: “What’s so arrogant about you?”
