The cultivators looked on in a daze, stupefied by the scene before them.
All around, flying swords soared in from the depths of the forest, all rushing toward the ironclad war chariot behind them.
A chicken and a dog stuck their heads out of the chariot window, each holding a strangely shaped device that was emitting a powerful suction force, attracting all surrounding Sword Qi and flying swords.
“Woof, don’t compete with Lord Ergouzi for the root, this belongs to Lord Ergouzi!”
“Cluck cluck, today, the supreme self intends to sweep across the eight desolates, do not hinder the supreme self’s mood!”
“Not bad, Huazi.”
The big truck charged ahead, with swords clanging and sword shadows and blade lights slashing at it, sparks flying everywhere but not leaving a single mark.
Ergouzi and Ji Wuqing completely let loose, each handling half of the vacuum, sucking frantically, what Lower Grade Spiritual Artifacts, Middle Grade Spiritual Artifacts, all going into their bags—this feeling of instant wealth was something they couldn’t get enough of.
The large troop of cultivators casually followed the big truck at a jog, all the Sword Qi being sucked up by the vacuums, making Knife Forest look like an utterly ordinary little woods.
The cultivators were extremely excited, their choice was the right one—following Brother Ruthless was definitely correct!
Brother Ruthless carried the game!
Looking at the dozen or so cultivators who had entered ahead, they were full of vigor before, but now they had completely turned into a sorry state, dispirited, with several spitting blood due to severe injuries—there was no way they were as calm and relaxed as the others.
“Brother Ruthless is really powerful!”
The cultivators who came in first were utterly stunned; what kind of tactic was this? They were fighting to the death here, and yet the main troop just smoothly passed through like this, making them feel incredibly frustrated by the comparison.
Especially since these main troop cultivators were the low-level cultivators they had previously looked down upon.
“Bro, don’t be stubborn, it doesn’t matter how we get through as long as we get through, right? Join us, let Brother Ruthless carry us through, isn’t it great to pass easily?”
“Yeah, it doesn’t seem like you can make it on your own. Let’s do it together. We don’t despise you!”
The cultivators spoke very amiably, deeply experiencing the warmth and kindness of being together. Following Brother Ruthless, there were no differences in status among them.
No matter how powerful their backgrounds had been previously, at that moment, they were just little small-fries being carried by a big shot.
The dozen or so cultivators who entered earlier now looked somewhat ashamed and embarrassed as they silently followed at the end of the group—they felt they had lost face. If only they had known, they would have simply followed behind and let themselves be carried; it would have been better than making a fool of themselves in front of everyone.
However, these little thoughts were beyond Li Xiaobai’s hearing.
At that moment, Li Xiaobai was intently staring into the depths of the jungle. This forest hid too many Spiritual Artifacts; the opportunity was rare and he had to seize them all.
He spun the steering wheel, and the truck abruptly turned, heading down another path as the cultivators behind him followed without hesitation.
The big truck rolled on, the vacuum kept sucking.
Yu Sanbian had a strange expression in the passenger seat. He hadn’t expected that the cultivator who had casually chatted with him would be such a genius, easily packing the Blade Array into his bag. It wasn’t something an ordinary cultivator could achieve.
This person’s cultivation level, at the very least, was that of a Half-Step Nascent Soul—maybe he had already touched that threshold and stepped into a higher realm, Yu Sanbian speculated in his heart.
But at the same time, he was also puzzled; with such strength, why had he never heard of this person before?
…
On a certain high mountain, several old men closely monitoring Li Xiaobai’s movements were extremely impressed.
“I give full marks for this move; treating the test as an opportunity to get rich—it’s a very business-savvy approach and shows talent.”
“Daring in thought and action, quite impressive.”
“Being able to turn a perilous situation into a chance at fortune at any time and place… that’s a skill.”
“It’s just a bit wasteful of Spiritual Artifacts…”
“`
A few old men were chatting over tea, seemingly unconcerned.
“This kid, to brazenly plunder the Holy Demon Sect’s property, I’ll be back shortly!”
Feng Qingyang flew into a rage, his figure flickering, and he disappeared from the spot in an instant.
…
In the forest, the large truck had already traversed a third of the territory, and over half of the Spiritual Artifacts in the jungle had been swept away.
Li Xiaobai felt a bit uneasy. Taking away someone’s Spiritual Artifacts like this didn’t feel quite right.
But such wealth was really wasted lying around in the forest, and resources should be utilized effectively.
However, neither Ergouzi nor Ji Wuqing cared much about that. Seeing the power of the vacuum decrease, they immediately expressed dissatisfaction, “Kid, bring out the best Spirit Stones, today Lord Ergouzi will suck this forest dry!”
“Kukuku, I shall leave a terrifying mark in the hearts of the Holy Demon Sect!”
“This Huazi is really good,” Yu Sanbian remarked indifferently.
Li Xiaobai’s face twitched. The creatures in the cabin, aside from him, all seemed a bit abnormal.
“Stop it, you scoundrels!”
A furious shout came from the sky, Feng Qingyang descended from the heavens and landed on the truck’s hood, confronting Li Xiaobai through the windshield with a four-eyes lock.
“Kid, why is it always you causing trouble?”
Li Xiaobai shuddered in fright and slammed on the brakes, flinging Feng Qingyang off.
“I…”
Feng Qingyang was dumbfounded, as the truck came to a halt without warning, and he wasn’t prepared. His Cultivation Technique activated, radiating a halo that enveloped him, obscuring whatever was happening inside from the spectators.
Feng Qingyang let out a slight sigh of relief. That was close; he almost lost face in front of his disciples.
Touching the mask on his face, Li Xiaobai said, “Great Elder, what can I do for you? Liangchen is eager to continue with the trial.”
“Kid, you even dare to pilfer the Spiritual Artifacts of my Holy Demon Sect. You’ve got guts. Before I lose my temper, hand over the items quickly,” Feng Qingyang insisted with a stern face.
“The rules never stated that collecting Spiritual Artifacts is forbidden. This is the disciple’s way of breaking through the barrier.”
“Furthermore, they’re merely Lower Grade Spiritual Artifacts after all, no need for the Great Elder to make a fuss over such trifles,” Li Xiaobai waved dismissively.
Enraged to the point of turning green, Feng Qingyang said, “Kid, not only are you taking the Holy Demon Sect’s Spiritual Artifacts right under my nose, but you’re also destroying the testing environment right in front of me. I have a serious issue with you!”
“Liangchen is simply doing his utmost in the challenge. Giving it one’s all is the utmost respect for the Knife Forest. Destroying the test environment is an empty accusation. If it weren’t for these cultivators trusting in their own efforts and choosing to believe in Liangchen, they wouldn’t have made it this far,” said Li Xiaobai.
“Nonsense, boy, you’re infuriating me as well!”
Feng Qingyang’s face turned crimson with wrath as he shouted and ranted, wanting to take action but unable to do so.
“Return, the test will continue.”
An aged voice came from the heavens. It was the voice of the Supreme Elder. Feng Qingyang trembled, glared at the many cultivators, and then vanished into the sky as a streak of light.
The cultivators were left speechless by this sequence of events. Not only had someone openly taken hundreds of Lower Grade Spiritual Artifacts, but he had also boldly faced off against the Great Elder.
“Truly worthy of being called Brother Ruthless, so ruthless!”
“Boss Ye, indeed a divine figure too!”
