 [Achievements: Trouble Maker (2/108).]

 

 Just by soaking in the magma for two minutes, he had gained nearly ten thousand Attribute Points; the benefit was simply too great.

 

 A few minutes ago, amidst the chaos of the group fighting, Li Xiaobai had jumped off the cliff. Although the temperature of the magma was high, it was nothing more than a tool for increasing the Attribute Points as far as the System was concerned.

 

 By now, it was toote for the people above to realize his existence.

 

 As the only one who could freely move in the magma, Li Xiaobai began to collect the spiritual medicines floating on the surface. He gathered the Fire Lotuses into his Space Ring, along with many fiery red metals and some unrecognizable herbs that looked quite valuable.

 

 All of these were Spirit Stones! Previously, Ouyang Shuanger had offered fifteen thousand Spirit Stones for a single herb. These many herbs could probably sell for several hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones.

 

 Nearing the center of the magma, the temperature suddenly spiked. In front of him was a small stone pir that had not melted in theva, its material unknown.

 

 On top of ity a shining, translucent fragment. Li Xiaobai’s breathing became abruptly rapid.

 

 This was the Blood Sacrifice Fragment he had been so desperately searching for. It seemed Ergouzi’s method of tossing his shoe to find the way, with the toe pointing downward, was no coincidence. The magma might very well have been the destination indicated.<div>

 

 A System product, truly miraculous!

 

 He touched the fragment, and like the previous times, the fragment transformed into a streak of light, shooting straight into the center of Li Xiaobai’s forehead.

 

 [Attribute Points +10000…]

 

 All into defense!

 

 [Defensive power: Indestructible Golden Body Eighth Turn (30000/80000) Upgradable.]

 

 The Attribute Points continued to increase steadily. With a bit more soaking, his defensive power would surely advance to the next level.

 

 However, after the fragment vanished, the numbers flickering on the System’s interface began to decrease gradually.

 

 [Attribute Points +1500…]

 

 [Attribute Points +1000…]

 

 [Attribute Points +900…]

 

 The surrounding temperature did not seem as high as before, suggesting that the intense heat of the magma might be rted to the fragment.<div>

 

 At this moment, the cultivators above watched with wide eyes as Li Xiaobai cleared out the treasures within the magma, bing increasingly anxious.

 

 “Brother below, how may I address you? I am a True Disciple of the Devil Cloud Sect, Xiang Renjie. I am willing to pay Spirit Stones for the spiritual medicines in your hands!”

 

 “I am also willing to buy them, name your price!”

 

 The cultivators wanted to secure Li Xiaobai’s agreement first.

 

 Li Xiaobai became interested. Although he had promised Ouyang Shuanger, if these people were willing to offer a higher price, he could consider selling to them.

 

 “How much can you offer?”

 

 “Three thousand top-grade Spirit Stones!” said Xiang Renjie.

 

 Li Xiaobai shook his head, somewhat disappointed, “That’s too little.”

 

 “Then, how much do you want?” Xiang Renjie frowned; in his view, three thousand top-grade Spirit Stones was already not a small amount.

 

 “It can’t be less than fifteen thousand top-grade Spirit Stones, the highest offer gets it,” Li Xiaobai said.

 

 “Your Excellency is perhaps afflicted with madness, wanting to sell a single Spiritual Medicine for fifteen thousand top-grade Spirit Stones?”n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om<div>

 

 Xiang Renjie sneered, feeling as if he was being yed.

 

 “The price is quite fair.”

 

 Li Xiaobai stated, Ouyang Shuanger was no fool and must have priced it ording to the market, perhaps a bit lower, but not by much. The man above who only wanted to use three thousand top-grade Spirit Stones to make the purchase was simply delusional.

 

 “Might I ask if the gentleman would care toe up for a talk?”

 

 Yu Xiu from Xingtian Sect said with a smile.

 

 “Going up there is too much trouble, why don’t youe down directly?” Li Xiaobai scratched his head and said.

 

 “Brother Yu, no need to talk further. This fellow is obviously trying to swindle our Spirit Stones, demanding fifteen thousand. If you ask me, we should just st him away; better that the treasure returns to the magma than let this guy take it!”

 

 A vicious glint shed through Xiang Renjie’s eyes.

 

 Yu Xiu also harbored this thought. Even if Li Xiaobai came up, it wasn’t certain that the Spiritual Medicine would end up in his own hands. Since there was no guarantee, it might as well remain below forever.

 

 “Amitabha, Xiang Patron, your intent to kill is too heavy. Harmony is most valuable in all things, and this treasure should go to whoever it is fated for, not to be fought over.”

 

 Master Liaowang spoke.

 

 “Master, please do not involve yourself in this matter. The origins of this person are unclear, and him gaining the treasure would be a curse rather than a blessing for us, he must be made to leave the treasure behind!”

 

 Yu Xiu, along with several other prodigies, subtly formed a surrounding stance, keeping Master Liaowang at bay.

 

 “Indeed, if Your Excellency leaves the treasure and departs, we can let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, do not me us for turning ruthless!”

 

 Xiang Renjie’s face was fierce as he voiced the collective will of the many cultivators present.

 

 Li Xiaobai heard their conversation clearly. This group was insatiably greedy; their prior infighting wasn’t enough, now they were setting their sights on him.

 

 “I obtained the treasure through my own abilities. Why should I leave it? If you have the skill,e down here!” Li Xiaobai taunted.

 

 “Then don’t me us for being ruthless.”

 

 “Attack!”

 

 Xiang Renjie suddenly activated his Cultivation Technique, and dozens of needles as ck as ink shot toward Li Xiaobai like a torrential downpour.

 

 The other cultivators alsounched their own attacks, with Sword Qi and de light pouring down in a frenzy aiming at the area below.

 

 Master Liaowang’s expression changed drastically. The Buddha’s phantom appeared behind him in an instant, attempting to intercept everyone’s assault: “Everyone, this must not be!”

 

 Yu Xiu and several other prodigies also manifested their Primordial Spirits at the same time, forcibly blocking the Buddha’s phantom.

 

 “Master Liaowang, although we are no match for you, we can still stop you momentarily, and that moment is all we need. The cultivator below should already be dead.”

 

 Yu Xiu spoke calmly, slowly retracting his Primordial Spirit.

 

 The magma was stirred into towering waves by the various lights of swords and des, with boiling steam surging upwards, making the cultivators on the cliff feel as if their insides were being burnt just from breathing.

 

 The power of the magma below must be terrifying indeed, but that cultivator must have died, right?

 

 “Is this the strength of someone on the leaderboard?”

 

 “My heart feels no ripples, I even feel a bit likeughing!”

 

 Li Xiaobai checked his Attribute Points and spoke indifferently.

 

 [Attribute Points: 11000.]

 

 At least dozens of cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage and above attacked, yet they provided just over ten thousand Attribute Points. To be honest, it was a bit disappointing.

 

 All points to defense.

 

 [Defensive Power: Eighth rotation of Indestructible Golden Body (41000/80000), ready to advance.]

 

 Drawing another wave of firepower should just about do it…
