I'm Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Everyone was a cultivator, so they entered the venue in an orderly and efficient manner.

Everything was already in order, Tianbai Jinxing smiled, saying, “Everyone, do you see the fruits over there?”

“They were given to us by Lord Saint. I don’t have to tell you about the flavor, everyone who eats it will know. There are not only fruits, there’s also water and some beverages. All of you can try it out during your free time. Let us give Lord Saint a big applause in thanks!”

“Thank you Lord Saint!”

The crowd cheered loudly, and their claps sounded like thunder. They were so emotional that their faces reddened.

Was that the power of the expert?

‘Eating all of that during our free time? It’s amazing!’

Before that, they had been wondering what kind of impressive prize would cause their sect leaders to place so much importance in this.

No one expected…everyone who came in ended up with rewards that were better than the prizes they imagined…

All they could say was their imagination was far too weak.

No wonder their sect leaders had been so careful, keeping everything as such a tight secret. If word of it spread out, the venue would absolutely have exploded with people.

Li Nianfan stood up, smiling as he waved to the crowd.

After that, he said, “Everyone’s so enthusiastic, you’re far too polite.”

After that, the eyes of the various disciples lit up, encountering another problem.

That was how they could eat all of that in a natural manner.

It was obvious that they could not be too exaggerated in their movements, otherwise they would garner the attention of the expert and cause suspicion. If that happened, it would be inexcusable. Of course, it was even more impossible for them to ignore it.

Ah, they really wanted to eat it, but they needed to resist with all their might. That was the greatest test.

“Participants, please take your seats, the tournament will be conducted through drawing lots, so everyone make your preparations.”

Taibai Jinxing announced the rules of the tournament.

Of course, everyone’s focus was on the pile of fruits, and their hearts raced, putting all their thoughts and efforts into just being able to take a bite.

As all the participants were preparing, a lady from the Hundred Flower sect slowly walked out of the crowd, her clear and cold face was incredibly calm, no change in her expression could be seen.

She casually walked to the buffet spread, as if she wanted to give it a try. She appraised the fruits, her gaze full of curiosity.

Blinking for a moment, she seemed to casually pick up a slice of watermelon and put it in her mouth.

At that moment, countless eyes were fixed on that woman from the Hundred Flower sect.

She was actually incredibly nervous, and she carefully suppressed her heart that seemed to be threatening to jump out of her body.

‘A Chaos Spiritual Root, I’m about to bite into a Chaos Spiritual Root!’

Her red lips opened slightly, taking a bite of the watermelon. Suddenly, she shuddered, her beautiful eyes narrowed as she submerged herself into the flavor of the watermelon.

Waves of spiritual power washed out of the watermelon, filling her body with power.

‘This is way too comfortable.’

‘Calm down! Keep your composure!’

‘Don’t act too exaggerated!’

She kept on telling herself in her heart, suppressing the urge to pack up all the Spiritual Roots there and take them away. She regained her composure, and then she picked up a piece of an apple before leaving after pouring herself a glass of water.

Everyone there had their gazes on her, and all gulped down a mouthful of saliva at the same time.

“She…she ate the Chaos Spiritual Fruit just like that, and even poured herself a glass of Chaos Spiritual Water?”

“This is the easiest way of obtaining a Chaos Spiritual Root that I’ve ever seen.”

“What was I hesitating for earlier? I should have walked forward if I knew!”

“She really is a saintess from the Hundred Flower Sect, she’s so good at acting!”

“Can we still go up and get some? Will the expert think it’s out of the ordinary?”

The crowd was filled with admiration and envy, but none of them dared to walk up. They were filled with apprehension and anxiety.

That was because if they surged forward suddenly, the expert would definitely get suspicious.

It was harder to grasp that line than fighting.

‘Ah, it’s so hard!’

Other than them restricting themselves, various elders from great sects were stationed all around the venue to maintain order. If someone lost control of themselves and rushed forward to get the Chaos Spiritual Roots, then the elders would make a move, suppressing them on the spot…

For the expert, everything had to be carefully done.

In the past, the various sects would already have been engaging in a life or death battle over those treasures. They would definitely not be like they currently are, having to pretend like nothing was happening, relying on their acting skills to get the upper hand…

As everyone was busy with their thoughts, the Luotian Dynasty’s eldest princess and the youngest princess went forward hand in hand. After sampling the fruits, they poured a glass of drinks each before they left.

Those movements lit a spark in the hearts of those who had yet to make a move, and they started to slowly move forward.

As long as they maintained their calm and did not fight over anything, they would not attract the expert’s attention.

Everyone took deep breaths, and started to replay the scene of themselves eating a Chaos Spiritual Root in their minds.

“First match, Luo Tian of the Cloud Wandering Palace against the Heavenly War Temple’s Juling Shen.”

Taibai Jinxing’s voice stirred some interest in Li Nianfan.

He smiled. “Not bad, a familiar person is in the first match.”

He smiled, looking at the two people who were walking on stage with great interest. He had his melon seeds in hand, and started to crack open the shells.

“Master, you should just focus on watching the matches, Fire Phoenix and I will help you with opening the shells, just tell us what you want to eat.”

Daji put her hand over his, staring at him with her large, beautiful eyes.

Li Nianfan smiled with a pleased expression. “Hahaha, sure, you’re such a good wife.”

Looking at immortals facing off, with immortals serving him, that really was the pinnacle of human experiences.

On the stage.

Ju Lingshen and Luo Tian had serious expressions on their faces, the fight was about to start!

Even though it was just an exhibition match for the expert in name, a purely friendly match, all of the participants were more serious about it than ever!

The first reason was so that they could show the expert a perfect performance. The second was that they wanted to prove themselves to the expert!

If their fighting earned the acknowledgement of the expert, just a few pointers or even a chance encounter would be an unimaginable consequence!

“Ah, take my axe!”

Ju Lingshen’s eyes were like copper bells, and he let out an angry roar, lifting his axe as the image of a mountain condensed around him. His power was indomitable, overwhelming everything.

As someone from the Heavenly Palace, the pressure of him was higher than on anyone else!

That was because they had followed the expert the whole way, receiving many gifts from the expert. If their performance was not the best, then they would be too ashamed to even face the expert, so all of them put in a hundred and twenty percent of effort.

Ju Lingshen’s opponent was not weak, and Luo Tian held a silver staff in his hand, waving it around as he summoned up the Law of Wind. The wind danced around like spirits, amazing to look at, but containing devastating power behind it.

That was a battle between Chaos Daluo Golden Immortals, and they were both at the pinnacle of the realm. Their powers were incredibly strong. If they were in the old Eldritch World, they would have enough power to dominate the whole world!

Various images flashed about like rainbows, it was incredibly magnificent, enough to rip apart the earth and cover up the heavens!

The sounds of battle never stopped, causing the whole realm around them to shake. If the sect leaders had not worked together to seal off the space, the show would already have been over. Thousands of miles around would have been destroyed by the aftershocks, and they would only have been able to continue their battle in the Chaos.

The light of the laws were incredibly pleasing to the eye, and the elements danced around in the air, splitting the skies apart.

“How interesting, this really is interesting. Is this the strength of immortals?”

Li Nianfan stared at the match, not even blinking as he exclaimed in surprise.

It was actually the first time he watched an honest fight.

Before, either he would hide far away out of fear, or look at his opponents being killed off in an instant. An intense battle like that was really fun to watch!

‘Even though I can’t cultivate, being able to watch such an interesting battle conference makes it worth coming into the cultivation world.’

“Lord said, Ju Lingshen walked the Dao of strength, he cultivates based on power. Just now, his axe broke through his opponent’s wind with just power alone, after that…”

On the side, a wise sect leader walked up and explained, analyzing the battle for Li Nianfan.

Li Nianfan lamented, “Being able to move heaven and earth with just their fists, this power really is fascinating!”

One word, cool.

The others could not help but hold their breaths, exchanging glances with each other in speechlessness.

‘It should be us being fascinated by you!’

‘When will we be able to be like you, giving away countless treasures to others as if they were trash!’

‘That is the true pinnacle of cultivation!’

The battle between the deities saw their powers soaring, they did not even think about running away or avoiding the opponent, and just focused on fighting each other directly. It did not last for too long, and a victor was determined in the next moment, with Ju Lingshen winning the bout.

“Hahaha, that was fun!”

Ju Lingshen let out a comfortable sigh, smiling as he did not forget to put up pretenses. “You’re not a bad opponent, it’s just a pity you met me.”

After that was the next battle.

The impressive battles, on top of the sect leaders’ explanations, allowed Li Nianfan to increase his knowledge of the cultivation world.

At some point, the sun started to set, and the sky started to dim.

“The first day of the conference will end now!”

Taibai Jinxing jumped out, saying, “Next up, let’s enjoy some song and dance.”

After that, the intense atmosphere of battle suddenly changed. Flower petals blew in the winds as fairies started to play melodious songs with their various instruments. There were also fairies with amazing figures dancing along with the songs.

Under the night sky, it was incredibly beautiful.

Li Nianfan exclaimed, “Wow, there are performances like this too.”

“Lord Saint, a whole day of fights can get dull and exhausting, which is why there are such fixtures to relax ourselves with.”

Cultivator Junjun explained. They obviously would not say that it had all been prepared purely to ensure the expert’s good mood.

“Other than these songs and dances, there are other fixtures. All the sects come from different little worlds, so their performances are all different.”

Li Nianfan nodded, praising, “That’s great, all of you really put a lot of thought into this, how impressive.”

Looking at the interesting and intense battles during the day and ending it with beautiful and relaxing performances really made it a fulfilling day, causing Li Nianfan to get sleepy.

Cultivator Junjun and the others came forward, saying respectfully, “Lord Saint, we prepared a place for you to stay, would you like to take a look?”

“Oh?”

Li Nianfan paused before smiling. “You’re really thoughtful, it spares me the effort of making a trip back.”

The residence was not that far away, it was deep in Tianyun Mountain, and waas a wooden house that had been built with immortal powers. It was very spacious, and the design was obviously given a lot of thought. It was right next to the river in the mountain, giving out a sense of serenity.

Li Nianfan was not overly polite to them, and said, “This is not bad, I definitely won’t refuse your offer.”

Cultivator Junjun hurriedly said, “Haha, then we won’t interrupt your rest anymore.”

At the tournament venue, after making sure the expert had left, the originally restrained crowd erupted, all of them revealing eyes of greed.

Even though the fruits and beverages of the day had already been eaten, Chaos Spiritual Water only needed to be purified, which meant it was inexhaustible!

“Chaos Spiritual Water, here I come!”

“Move aside, let me pour myself a cup first, just a cup!”

“Damn you, you’re calling such a large barrel a cup, don’t be too greedy!”

“What are you doing over there? Ah! It’s fine if you just want to drink it, but you’re thinking about taking some away? Get lost!”

“What are you squeezing over for?”

“So what if I squeeze?”

…

At that moment, several figures shot out of the Chaos, entering the Area of the Gods.

Big Lord Demon was at the helm, respectfully saying, “We’re here.”

“It really is the Area of the Gods, it’s full of spiritual energy, and the life here is full of vigor!”

“This will be a feast for us Eldritchs!”

“I can’t believe that, after so many years, the Chaos gave birth to another Area of the Gods, but it’s still going to be destroyed by us!”

Guyu and three other Eldritchs’ had thoughtful looks in their eyes, and they were surrounded by terrifying vortexes, condensing powers of consumption as they frantically absorbed the Spiritual energy of the Area of the Gods. It was not just the spiritual energy, even the plants nearby rapidly withered.

Big Lord Demon was shocked when he saw that, and was afraid that he would be absorbed as well, so he hurriedly said, “Four Lords, the Area of the Gods was born from the Eldritch World, and the central city is the Eldritch World from back then. There are many unusual places, should I bring you there?”

Guyu urged, “What are you waiting for then? Hurry up.”

Big Lord Demon immediately led the way. He was immensely anxious, wondering how he could protect himself, and even thinking of where he would lead them to.

‘Disappear.’

‘My bad luck, please disappear!’

‘I’m begging you…’

Suddenly, they arrived at a mountain.

As they prepared to move past it, Guyun suddenly let out a soft exclamation.

“Oh? What strong fluctuations of law!”

“It’s from beneath the mountain, there are quite a few people there fighting.”

“There are quite a lot of experts too.”

“It looks like we’re quite lucky. We stumbled upon a gathering of the cultivators of the Area of the Gods. Why don’t we just eat them all, or we’d be wasting this stroke of luck.”

So, they happily headed down the mountain.

Inside the mountain, without the expert, quite a few of the cultivators had already started to fight over the water purifier. As they argued amongst one another, spells flew everywhere, illuminating the sky.

Suddenly, a cold laughter could be heard in the empty space.

“Hehehe, so many excellent prey have gathered together, this will be a luxurious dinner!”
