Leveling Up And Becoming Undefeatable

“Squeak~, squeak~…”

Another Corpse Eating Rat leaped out, and this one was even more ferocious.

It leaped onto the ceiling of the cave and scurried back and forth before finding an opportunity to pounce at Luo Tian.

“Hahaha…”

“Come! All of you come!”

“The more, the better!”

Luo Tian laughed in excitement. He was no longer worried about how bad the condition of this Black Wind Cave was, and was only worried about not having enough Corpse Eating Rats to kill.

“Whoosh~!”

“Whoosh~!”

Before the Corpse Eating Rat could reach its target, the Fire Qilin was already blocking in front of Luo Tian and spraying out two mouthfuls of flames.

The flames burned the Corpse Eating Rat’s fur black.

The Corpse Eating Rat squeaked miserably, before retreating away in a hurry. But its expression made it look like it was unwilling, while its throat kept moving from constantly gulping saliva. Its eyes were emitting light as it looked at Luo Tian, clearly showing it wanted to swallow Luo Tian whole with a single bite.

“Squeak~, squeak~…”

The Corpse Eating Rat squeaked several times before trying once more.

This time, it didn’t come from the air or scurried around the walls. It attempted to drill directly into the ground of the cave.

With its two sharp teeth, it started biting the mud on the ground frantically. In less than a second, its entire body had gone straight into the ground.

“Oh shit!”

“Is this a ground escaping skill?”

Luo Tian was briefly stunned but became extra wary.

The Fire Qilin had lost its target, so it was filled with confusion and didn’t know what to do.

It was now that Luo Tian found out another weakness of the Fire Qilin. Once it loses its target from its vision, the Fire Qilin would go into a blind state and not know what to attack.

“Rumble~!”

“Rumble~!”

There were light rumbling sounds and shuddering coming from under the ground.

Luo Tian could clearly feel the tremors of the ground through his feet. He became more serious as he burst forth with all of his Four Elements 7th rank powers. One hand was covered in flames, and one hand was covered in frost. He glued himself to the wall and quietly waited.

“Get away from the wall!”

A low shout was suddenly heard.

Luo Tian tensed up from the shout but quickly reacted by leaping away from the wall.

“Riiiip~!”

The clothes on Luo Tian’s back were ripped off, revealing two shallow slashes similar to teeth marks. The surface of his skin broke and started bleeding. Fortunately, he had moved quickly enough, or else a chunk of meat would be torn off his back. He thought the Corpse Eating Rat would drill out from the ground to attack and didn’t expect it to come from the wall. He was feeling grateful to that voice that warned him.

If it weren’t for the warning, his injury would be quite serious.

“Fire Qilin, explode that bastard!”

“Burn it to death!”

“Whoosh~!”

“Whoosh~!”

The instant the target appeared, the Fire Qilin sprayed out several flames in succession. The fur on the Corpse Eating Rat turned black before its entire body was scorched to death.

“Ding!”

“Congratulations to player Luo Tian for killing a Corpse Eating Rat. You have gained 10,000 experience points, 600 yuan energy…”

“Pheww~…”

Luo Tian exhaled in relief as his back was drenched in cold sweat.

“Senior Bai Qi, is that you?”

A man in his forties walked out from the darkness. His face was covered in dirt, his hair disheveled, and his expression extremely haggard. Even though this was the case, his body was giving off a powerful killing intent. It was so strong that it was similar to a person who had killed millions of people on the battlefield!

“Bai Qi?”

“God of Death Bai Qi?”

Luo Tian unconsciously thought of General Bai Qi, or Gongsun Qi, a General from the Qin state during the Warring States period of his previous life. He was known as a homicidal maniac and given the nickname of God of Death!

Luo Tian turned wary when Bai Qi just stared at him.

Bai Qi finally said, “Did Bai Yuan tell you to come in to kill me?”

“Humph~!”

“He’s not letting me off after I’ve already been locked up in the Black Wind Cave by him? This little brother of mine is a bit too ruthless!” The man was exactly Bai Qi, who was hiding in the Black Wind Cave. He was able to avoid the Corpse Eating Rat’s attacks thanks to the Scorching Sun Poison inside his body.

This poison kept the Corpse Eating Rats away.

But even so, all the yuan energy in his body was sucked dry by the bizarre yin attributed wind of the Black Wind Cave.

He had no more yuan energy.

However, in front of Luo Tian, he still acted tough, so it was impossible to see there was something wrong with him.

Luo Tian replied, “I was sent here by your daughter to rescue you.”

“Lingling?!”

Bai Qi’s eyes instantly turned surprised and violent. Bai Lingling and Bai Xiong were the only things he was concerned about. When he heard his daughter’s name, his expression obviously changed. “Don’t you use my daughter to trick me! I know very well now how sinister the master you serve is! It was him that poisoned me with the Scorching Sun Poison. I have treated him so well in the past, and never would I have imagined…”

Luo Tian was becoming impatient because he hated being misunderstood by others.

He just shouted, “Enough of your blabbering nonsense! If it weren’t for Bai Lingling and Bai Xiong’s sake, I wouldn’t bother coming here to save you. Now, I’m being treated like a lackey of Bai Yuan. I’m just going to ask you one question – do you want to go out?”

“If you don’t want to go out, I will leave immediately!”

He was too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy.

He was in a rush to save his friends.

He didn’t know how Dongfang Shuo and Yao Hai were faring right now.

Bai Qi was a bit surprised as his brows were furrowed. He then said to himself, “This kid must be a disciple of the Bai family. Otherwise, it’s impossible for him to cultivate the Ice Flame Palm. But how come I have never seen him before? Could he be a newly accepted disciple? Even if he’s a new disciple, it’s impossible for him to cultivate the Ice Flame Palm so proficiently already. Could he really be Lingling’s friend?”

“A Four Elements 7th ranker dares to come inside the Black Wind Cave?”

“Everyone knows that ten out of ten people will die after entering the Black Wind Cave. With his cultivation realm, isn’t that basically courting his own death?”

It’s not that Bai Qi didn’t want to trust Luo Tian, but this was simply too suspicious.

And it was because he was too trusting of others before that he was set up by Bai Yuan. Even his most loyal brother, Bai Shan, had betrayed him!

Luo Tian looked at Bai Qi’s contemplative expression and said, “Did your brain get fried? If I were someone of Bai Yuan’s people, would I come in on my own free will? You will only end up dying after being locked up inside this Black Wind Cave. You can stop pretending in front of me. My yuan energy is being depleted bit by bit, so that means you have no more yuan energy after being here for so long. Still trying to act tough? Hurry up and go out with me, and don’t waste my time!”

“Huh?”

“Little brother, my apologies for being too paranoid.”

Bai Qi smiled faintly and said, “We’ll talk more after we get out.”

Luo Tian glanced around the dark Black Wind Cave and felt pity inside his heart. “If only I could kill a few more Corpse Eating Rats… I’m still a few tens of thousands of experience points short of leveling up!”

Luo Tian was reluctant to leave, but he still chose to leave in the end.

Bai Qi was severely poisoned, and the yuan energy in his dantian had been drained clean. Staying one second longer meant one more second of danger for him.

The Black Wind Cave can’t run away, so he will find an opportunity to come back later.

Luo Tian made up his mind, “You just wait! I will definitely come back again! And when I do, I will definitely clean this place up!”

“Time to head out!”
