258: Seize the Luck

Yet, Chen Tianming effortlessly and casually passed through the Transforming God Realm.

Moreover, he was incredibly lucky, entering the Transforming God Realm within a spatial rift without receiving even a speck of test or punishment from the Source World.

He silently entered the realm, with no possibility of being struck down by heavenly lightning or burned to death by heavenly fire.

This was beyond a dream; it was maddeningly enviable!

However, Chen Tianming's response left the scholar somewhat puzzled.

“But brother, my realm hasn’t improved at all; I’m still just an ordinary Qi Refining Stage cultivator. I might have seen the threshold of Foundation Establishment, but I haven’t taken a single step forward!”

This almost made the scholar spit blood in anger.

One must know that the Bogu Corridor is full of powerful demonic beasts, various heaven-defying cultivation techniques, and ancient divine weapons.

Yet, Chen Tianming, this fellow, had a fortuitous encounter in such a place and hadn't even reached Foundation Establishment.

For a moment, the scholar couldn't understand.

Was Chen Tianming's talent too poor, or was the heavens playing a trick on Chen Tianming?

But only Chen Tianming himself knew.

His current strength had reached a terrifying twenty thousand layers of the Qi Refining Stage.

Casually using half his power could crush a Transforming God Realm expert!

However, since they had already discussed this, the scholar also sensed Chen Tianming's own power.

Now, the scholar wasn't nervous anymore.

“It’s alright. If you are willing, you could join my Demonic Sect and try a different cultivation method to see if you can break through your bottleneck…”

However, at this moment, Chen Tianming reached out and pointed to the huge container behind him.

“Cultivation can be put aside for now; it’s not important. I’m actually here to make money!”

Hearing Chen Tianming’s words, the scholar frowned again.

“What? You brought goods in from the outside?”

However, the reason for the scholar's skepticism wasn't doubt about Chen Tianming's motives.

Instead, he was doubting Chen Tianming's strength.

Although the Small World has countless connections with other realms,

the entrance to the Small World, which is the Bogu Corridor,

has been sealed by ancient seals year-round.

Even the various sects in the Small World, despite cultivating for so many years, still haven't had the opportunity to open the exit and leave.

In recent years, however, people from other realms have gradually entered from the outside.

It was just that the scholar always believed that

the reason the Small World absorbed outsiders might be because, as time went on, the seals on the passage entrance between the two worlds gradually thinned.

The heavens had their own arrangements in the unseen.

The scholar went with the flow, and coupled with the fact that the outsiders who had crossed over for many years had no cultivation strength, he did not stop them.

Until Chen Tianming appeared.

This was the first time the scholar had discovered a cultivator breaking through from another realm and entering the Small World.

And after arriving, Chen Tianming immediately displayed extraordinary strength.

He first crushed two ordinary demonic beasts upon entering, treading on the water as if his body contained endless spiritual power.

Furthermore, the direction Chen Tianming pointed was very accurate.

Directly towards the Three Great Sects!

And no matter how fiercely the Three Great Sects fought among themselves normally,

when it came to confronting outsiders, the Three Great Sects would definitely band together for warmth.

Because, by then, it would undoubtedly be a life-and-death battle.

That was why the scholar intervened to stop Chen Tianming, guiding him to the exit and urging him to leave.

But he didn't expect that Chen Tianming would coincidentally gain a fortuitous encounter in the Bogu Corridor.

Not only did he return, but he also brought back box after box of goods.

Looking at the dazzling array of items, the scholar finally couldn't help but speak.

“You… you’re giving up such a great opportunity to come here and make money?”

Chen Tianming said with a smile.

“Making money is just one aspect… To be honest, I had considered before whether I should absorb all the spiritual energy here after coming to the Xuanhuan World!”

The scholar couldn't help but lose his composure upon hearing this.

“What did you say!!”

Chen Tianming quickly shook his head again.

“Don’t misunderstand! I already said, originally… it was you, brother, who led me, little by little, through the various cities in the Small World. I saw the oppression suffered by the common people at the bottom of the Small World due to insufficient resources, so I felt that I couldn’t eradicate everyone in this world!”

The scholar listened, his mouth agape in a daze.

“You… you’re just a Qi Refining Stage cultivator! What arrogant words are you spouting!”

Seeing the scholar’s reaction, Chen Tianming smiled.

“Haha, brother, if I were truly just a simple Qi Refining Stage cultivator, do you think I would still have the qualifications and courage to return to the Small World now?”

After hearing Chen Tianming’s words, the scholar glanced at the white tiger behind him and immediately couldn't help but shiver.

He immediately spoke.

“Are you sure you have no ill intentions towards this secret realm?”

Chen Tianming immediately nodded.

“Absolutely not, but if I have to tell the truth… I am indeed very interested in a cultivator in the Small World!”

“I wonder, brother, do you know a cultivator named Lei Li?”

All Three Great Sects are on Mount Tianling.

They practically see each other constantly.

When the scholar heard the name Lei Li, he immediately glared with wide eyes, gritting his teeth.

“Lei Li! How do you know that guy?”

With that, the scholar actually took a step forward.

His expression was fierce and grim, looking as if he was ready to fight Chen Tianming at any moment.

But Chen Tianming merely raised his hand slightly, and the scholar immediately felt an incredibly terrifying pressure emanating from Chen Tianming’s palm.

He immediately bent his knees slightly.

Although this harmed a cultivator's dignity,

for the scholar, facing such pressure, preserving his life was more important.

When Chen Tianming took his hand away, the scholar finally let out a long breath, but then couldn't help but doubt himself.

“What’s going on! Why am I being suppressed by a mere Qi Refining Stage cultivator, and he’s an outsider!”

However, Chen Tianming had already begun to explain.

“To be honest, I actually have a grudge against that Lei Li. I wonder, brother, how is your relationship with that Lei Li?”

The scholar was furious in his heart.

However, this time, when he vented his anger, he was no longer facing Chen Tianming, so he naturally wouldn't be suppressed by Chen Tianming.

The scholar cursed loudly.

“That dog! He’s a dog thief!”

“He claims to be righteous, yet his methods are despicable, insidious, and malicious!”

“When I went down the mountain to travel the world, punishing evil and promoting good, it was that Lei Li who stirred up trouble among the Three Great Sects and pinned the label of a demonic path on my Demonic Lord!”

“This ultimately led to the Three Great Sects not recovering their morale for hundreds of years. Even the geniuses who originally appeared every three to five years now appear only once every fifteen years, still causing constant Scramble among the Three Great Sects, and even fewer join my Demonic Sect!”

Chen Tianming immediately snorted upon hearing this.

He knew why Lei Li would do such a disgusting and despicable thing.

As a child of destiny and a Qi Luck Child, Lei Li was chosen by the system, so all Qi Luck must be monopolized by him.

However, in the Small World where Lei Li appeared, Qi Luck was depleted. If he wanted to become stronger, he could only weaken everyone else's Qi Luck!
