Chapter 278: We’re not from the same system, why are you striking me?

“There’s actually this kind of cultivation method? It’s really amazing.”

“Yeah, if only we could break through without bottlenecks.” Hearing that Li Li could break through without bottlenecks, everyone couldn’t help but say enviously.

What is the most difficult thing about cultivation? It’s breaking through bottlenecks. If there were no bottlenecks in cultivation, wouldn’t that mean one could keep growing indefinitely?

“Don’t think so highly of it, how could there be such a good thing in the world? Although he cultivates without bottlenecks, the resources he needs are exceptionally large.” Mingmin looked at the envious crowd and said, “If you knew how many resources he consumed, you would know how great the cost is.”

This guy only saw that Gluttonous Cat could cultivate without bottlenecks, but he hadn’t seen how many resources he had swallowed. If it were converted into resources for cultivating cultivators, it would be enough to produce a Void Return cultivator.

“That’s still quite a good deal. You know, many of us have resources but no way to improve.” Hearing this, the crowd shook their heads and said:

“Yes, and the final result is that we can only stay stagnant throughout our lives.”

No matter how many resources are needed, as long as one is alive, one can continue to progress.

“That’s just what you think. He swallowed a whole sea of pills to reach his current strength.” Hong Fu said.

These guys have no concept of how many resources Gluttonous Cat has consumed, do they? Then she would let them know.

“Ah? You’re not kidding, right? Swallowed a whole sea of pills?”

“Yeah, that’s too outrageous.” The crowd couldn’t help but say after hearing this.

“Otherwise, do you think having no bottlenecks is such a good thing?” Hong Fu rolled her eyes and looked at Li Li.

She saw a golden light emanating from Li Li’s body, and a virtual and real figure of a fat cat began to solidify.

“Everyone, get ready to leave. Gluttonous Cat’s Nascent Soul is about to undergo a transformation. The pressure it will generate then is not something we can withstand.” Mingmin said, immediately flying out of the valley.

“Let’s get out of here, quick.” The others quickly followed after hearing this.

Although he breaks through without bottlenecks, who knows if he will attract heavenly tribulation when he breaks through? If lightning strikes them, wouldn’t they be extremely unlucky?

“Boom boom boom”

“Boom boom boom”

Just as they were thinking this, dark clouds suddenly gathered in the sky, thunder roared, and countless bolts of lightning surged in the sky, as if they were going to tear the entire sky apart.

And in the valley, Li Li’s illusory body became more and more solid. You could even see the pores under each of his hairs.

Seeing the lightning getting stronger and stronger, and the mountaintop above the valley being leveled, everyone couldn’t help but feel a burst of fear:

“I knew there would be heavenly tribulation when he broke through, and it turns out I was right.”

“Yes, it’s a good thing we got out of there quickly. Otherwise, if the lightning struck us, we would be in big trouble.”

“With such a big commotion here, it won’t attract those corpse ghosts, right?” Looking at the strange sounds in the sky, Feng Ruxue asked worriedly.

This heavenly tribulation is so huge, anyone who isn’t blind must have seen it. So will those corpse ghosts come running over?

“It shouldn’t be. Those corpse ghosts are creatures of extreme yin and evil. Unless they’re looking for death, they definitely wouldn’t come here.” Mingmin shook her head.

Zombies are zombies after all, no matter how capable they are, they wouldn’t dare to go near the heavenly tribulation, otherwise, they would be the first to suffer.

“That makes sense. So all we need to worry about now are other cultivators, right?” Feng Ruxue said.

In the great tomb, corpse ghosts are causing chaos. Anyone who isn’t a fool knows where to go.

And obviously, the place where the Martial Venerable realm expert is, is the safest.

“Yes, but who knows who needs to be careful?” Hong Fu said with a smile, “If anyone dares to come over, you’ll know how powerful this Gluttonous Cat is.”

“If anyone wants to take advantage of him, it won’t be that easy. If they don’t get a layer of skin peeled off by him, then it’s not worth mentioning.”

With this little Gluttonous Cat’s personality, if anyone dares to come over, he will definitely charge them a protection fee.

After all, he doesn’t have the idea of the strong protecting the weak, nor does he have the concept that cultivators should be united.

“Is that so?” Hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but look at Li Li, suddenly feeling that he didn’t seem so kind-hearted after all.

“What pressure is this?” At the same time, in the great tomb, everyone raised their heads and looked towards the distant place where thunderclouds were gathering.

“Someone is about to break through to the Martial Venerable realm.” The muscular man said enviously, “I wonder which guy chose such a good time? Breaking through now of all times.”

“If it were normal times, we would have to worry, but now he’s our savior.”

“Who says it isn’t? With a Martial Venerable realm expert standing in front, those corpse ghosts can’t possibly keep staring at us, right?”

“Yeah, let’s hurry over there.”

If it were still the peaceful situation before, the other party breaking through to the Martial Venerable realm would be bad news for them. None of them would be able to obtain inheritance in the great tomb.

But now, he has become their only lifeline.

“Meow meow~”

“No power left, we’re one family, not two. Why are you striking me for no reason? Isn’t this a case of family not recognizing family? Hurry up and stop.” Li Li, floating in the air, looked at the colorful lightning in the sky and said.

He had seen plenty of ordinary silver lightning, but this was the first time he had seen such colorful lightning, which showed how powerful it was.

“Boom boom boom”

“Boom boom boom”

And as Li Li spoke, the lightning in the sky showed no sign of stopping, but became even more intense.

“Meow meow~”

“No way? You can’t play like this.” Li Li was dumbfounded when he saw this, but the lightning wasn’t. It struck him directly.

“Boom boom boom”

White light instantly enveloped the entire valley, the huge thunderclap drowned out everything, and the whole world turned white.

“What a powerful heavenly tribulation, is Brother Cat okay?”

“Yeah, I feel like if that struck me, I would definitely be finished.”

The crowd, covering their eyes, said, what a powerful heavenly tribulation, just listening to it made one shudder.

“Don’t worry, he’s tough, he’ll be fine.”

“That’s right, he’s more durable than you think.” Hong Fu and Mingmin said nonchalantly when asked.

“Meow meow, this cat isn’t from the cultivation system. Why do I have to be struck by lightning to become stronger? There’s something wrong with this, right? We’re not even from the same system, why are you striking me?” After the white light dissipated, Li Li appeared, his whole body smoking.

At this moment, Li Li seemed very angry. They weren’t even from the same system, so why was the other party beating him up? Even if he had to be beaten up, shouldn’t it be someone else doing it?

“Boom boom boom”

“Boom boom boom boom”

As if responding to Li Li’s question, the entire sea of clouds churned rapidly. Then, a bolt of lightning even thicker than before struck Li Li.

“Meow meow, if this cat doesn’t show its power, you’re taking this cat for a sick cat, aren’t you? This cat is telling you today, no matter which path you’re from,”

“If you dare to attack this cat, this cat will make you pay the price.” Li Li cursed and opened his mouth. Then, under everyone’s gaze, he swallowed the falling lightning in one gulp.

“Ah?”

Seeing this, Feng Ruxue and the others were all dumbfounded. They looked at each other and said:

“What’s going on? I’ve lived so long and heard of people enduring heavenly tribulation, and I’ve heard of people using heavenly tribulation to temper their bodies, but this is the first time I’ve seen someone swallow heavenly tribulation in one gulp.”

“Yeah, it’s too outrageous. Isn’t he afraid of being struck to death?”

“Yeah, if my legs weren’t shaking right now, I would think I was dreaming.”

“Cough cough~”

As they were discussing, Li Li, smoking in the sky, coughed and said, “What kind of lousy lightning is this? It makes my mouth numb. But don’t think this cat is giving up. This cat is telling you, this cat is not to be messed with.”

“Boom boom boom”

“Boom boom boom”

The thunder roared violently in the sky, as if enraged. It struck Li Li again with lightning, but this time the lightning was no longer white, but red.

Seeing this, the people outside the valley were stunned:

“Oh my god! Why did Brother Cat have to talk back? Now it’s good, the sky has sent down a blood tribulation.”

“Yeah, I hope he can withstand it.”

“Meow meow~”

“Come on! This cat wants to see how many bolts of lightning you can send down. No matter how many you come, this cat will swallow them all. Just become the energy for this cat’s progress.” Li Li roared, his body suddenly growing larger. Like a giant demon god from ancient times, he swallowed the falling lightning again in one gulp.

“Zizi”

“Zizi”

As Li Li swallowed the lightning, red electric arcs kept darting around on his fur.

But as Li Li’s fur flickered with small black dots, they quickly disappeared.

“Burp!”

“As expected of the energy contained in lightning, it’s really amazing. It’s a good thing this cat has a big stomach and can digest it. Otherwise, it would be a big trouble.” Li Li burped and said.

From the fact that he could burp after swallowing the lightning, it could be heard how terrifying the energy contained in the lightning was.

It was fortunate that it was him, otherwise, if it were someone else, wouldn’t they be blown up?

“It’s just trouble? Aren’t you overestimating us?” The crowd couldn’t help but be speechless after hearing this.

Who has the ability to swallow lightning directly like him?

“Which demon race prodigy is this? Why have I never seen him before?”

“Yeah, I haven’t seen him either. Who is he?”

At this moment, more martial artists arrived. But they didn’t see the scene of Li Li swallowing the lightning, only that he looked unfamiliar.

After all, at their level, they had heard of almost all the famous martial artists and demon races.

But they had never heard of anyone like him.

“Whoosh whoosh”

“Whoosh whoosh”

Just as they were whispering to themselves, more people arrived. And the people who landed also didn’t recognize Li Li.

“Boom boom boom”

“Boom boom boom”

At this moment, a thin purple lightning appeared in the sky. Compared to the lightning that appeared before, it was less than a millionth, but when everyone saw it, their eyes showed a look of horror:

“Is that Purple Firmament Divine Thunder? What did he do? Why did he attract Purple Firmament Divine Thunder?”

“Yeah, he’s finished. Purple Firmament Divine Thunder is not so easy to withstand.”

Purple Firmament Divine Thunder is one of the legendary world-destroying lightning bolts, and even a trace of it is not easy to withstand.

“I’m playing nicely with you, and you’re playing tricks on me? I didn’t do anything to you, and you actually want to destroy me?” Li Li couldn’t help but curse when he saw this, “You want to kill this cat, but you can’t. This cat will swallow you today.”

After saying that, he opened his mouth wide and rushed towards the Purple Firmament Divine Thunder.

Seeing this, everyone was stunned:

“He’s crazy, he’s really crazy. Others would avoid Purple Firmament Divine Thunder, but he actually dares to rush towards it. What is he thinking?”

“Yeah, if Purple Firmament Divine Thunder was so easy to deal with, it wouldn’t be called world-destroying divine thunder.”

The people beside Feng Ruxue were also dumbfounded, feeling dizzy.

“Ah? Is that what Brother Cat is thinking?”

“Yeah, isn’t this courting death?”

“This Gluttonous Cat is really greedy, he’s not afraid of being blown up.” Mingmin said angrily, naturally seeing Li Li’s plan.

“If he wasn’t greedy, he wouldn’t be called Gluttonous Cat.” Hong Fu quipped.

“Can he withstand Purple Firmament Divine Thunder?” Feng Ruxue asked anxiously.

What time is it, why are they two still chatting here? Shouldn’t they be nervous?

“Of course he can withstand it, you can tell by how calm and composed he is.”

“Yeah, if he wasn’t sure, he would have cried out long ago.”

Mingmin and Hong Fu looked at Li Li and said lightly, this Gluttonous Cat, if he couldn’t withstand it, he would have come crying long ago, how could he still be so calm?

“Really? That’s good.” Feng Ruxue couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief after hearing this.

“Boom”

“Boom”

The dark lightning struck the ground, and a figure met it head-on and swallowed it in one gulp.

Just as the onlookers thought he was finished, they suddenly found that the thunderclouds in the sky began to recede.

They couldn’t help but stare at the sky in a daze:

“This is a sign that the heavenly tribulation is over, but how did he do it? Ignore the Extinction Divine Thunder?”

“Yeah, it’s really puzzling. I’ve never heard of anyone surviving Extinction Divine Thunder.”

“Now it seems that the spatial backpack is stronger. As for this Extinction Divine Thunder, just stay in the spatial backpack and wait for this cat to deal with you when I have time.” This little Extinction Divine Thunder still wanted to kill him? What a dream. When he’s stronger, he’ll see if he doesn’t swallow this guy up.

“Brother Cat, how are you feeling?” Matthew asked curiously when he saw the heavenly tribulation dissipate.

“Of course I feel great, this cat is full of power now.” Li Li said, clenching his paws.

“That’s good. By the way, Brother Cat, how did you dodge that divine thunder?” Matthew asked curiously.

“It’s not simple, is it? I just put that thing into my spatial backpack.” Li Li said proudly, “It would be a fool not to use such a good storage tool, wouldn’t it?”

“Brother Cat, you actually used your spatial backpack to store it? That’s really outrageous.” Matthew was stunned.

He had thought of many ways, but he hadn’t thought of this one.

“Yes, it would be silly not to use good things.” Li Li laughed and looked at the large crowd gathered below, “It seems that the commotion this cat attracted is really big, it actually attracted so many guys.”

“Yes, Brother Cat.” Matthew nodded and said, “I guess they all want to come and rely on you, Brother Cat, to resist the corpse ghosts.”

“Is that so? Then they came at a really good time.” Li Li looked at the group of martial artists below and said, “I don’t care what you’re doing here, but if you want my protection, each of you has to give me at least one Rank 4 spirit herb. Otherwise, you’d better leave this valley honestly.”

He was just worried that it wouldn’t be easy to be a bandit with the corpse ghosts around, and these guys came running over.

Now he didn’t have to run around himself, he could just make these guys pay protection fees.

“Ah? Everyone has to give a Rank 4 spirit herb?” The people below whispered to each other after hearing this.

They hadn’t expected Li Li to say this.

“Yes, give the spirit herb and you’ll be under this cat’s protection. If you don’t, you’re on your own.” Li Li replied and waited for their decision.
