Chapter 1: The Birth of a Genius

  As he watched the middle-aged man leave, he let out a weak sigh, not knowing what this egg was, yet it had been guarded by such a powerful figure for tens of thousands of years! Nor did he know whether it was good or bad! Just as he was thinking about it, a loud rumbling sound came, and the surroundings suddenly cracked open. One after another, top-grade spiritual instruments and extreme-grade spiritual instruments flew out in all directions. Extremely thick spiritual energy surged into the sky. Ruo Bie Li's eyes widened as he roared: "Damn it! So these spiritual instruments were real!" After that, his face was filled with regret.

  At this moment, a bat flew in front of Wobielie and asked: "Young man, what happened here just now? Why is there such an astonishing spiritual energy? Tell me the truth quickly, and I can spare your life!"

  Before the bat could speak, a male eagle flew in from afar and cawed with laughter: "Stinky bat, I didn't expect you to be so fast! What information did you get from this cultivator's mouth? Can you tell me?"

  Suddenly, a loud rumbling sound shook the ground, and a large tiger appeared before everyone's eyes. With an overbearing tone, he asked, "Bat, Little Eagle, what just happened here?" His tone was like that of a superior questioning an inferior!

  But the bat and the eagle seemed to be a little afraid of the old tiger, and the eagle said: "I don't know anything, I came here when that stinky bat had already arrived! If you have something to ask, ask that stinky bat!"

  That tiger's two bronze bell-sized eyes stared at the bat, and that bat immediately said: "Don't look at me like that! I originally saw this spiritual energy was so huge, so I rushed over with all my might. When I arrived, I found out it was just a weak and small cultivator here. And before I even started asking him questions, this dead bird flew over!"

  That tiger looked at Ru Bieli, and Ru Bieli also looked back at it without fear. The tiger suddenly burst out laughing: "Haha! Good, good, kid, you're the first person to dare look at me like that. You should know that there aren't many people in the entire Wuwang Forest who dare to look at me like that. Your strength isn't up to par, but your courage is indeed commendable! As long as you tell me what really happened, I promise you won't get into trouble!"

  "If you must know, I was just looking at that bat with disdain and said with a smile: 'Oh? Is that so? But this bat senior also told me the same thing earlier!'"

  That tiger said carelessly, "It's because I wasn't here just now, but I am now, you don't have to worry about it at all!" The bat heard this and trembled with rage, clearly furious!

  "If you're sure you can guarantee my safety, then I'll go with you," said Bié Lí, smiling slyly. "The entire Wú Wàng Forest is so vast, are you saying that there aren't any who have a higher cultivation level than yours? What if they give me trouble?"

  That old tiger was asked, and immediately laughed: "Little guy, don't be afraid to tell you, I am the 11th calamity scattered demon, and that bat and little eagle are only the 10th calamity scattered demon. In the entire Wuwang Forest, there are only six people with higher strength than me, and they are all preparing for the 12th scattered immortal calamity to ascend. So they won't come out. There are 14 people with the same strength as me, but I'm not easy to mess with either, do you understand?"

  If Yu Bie Li had listened to his words, he would have been shocked to know that this batch of scattered demons could sweep through the entire cultivation world without any problem. How could the sacred land of Qing Yun Men possess such powerful strength? He didn't think about it, but Qing Yun Men had existed for hundreds of millions of years, and each generation's leader had captured and thrown in countless demonic beasts. The demonic beasts' cultivation was slow to begin with, so they were stronger than cultivators and demon cultivators at the same level. Yu Bie Li was able to kill that Golden Dan period hedgehog because he had taken advantage of its carelessness and the armor's weakness. Otherwise, Yu Bie Li wouldn't have been able to kill it, and even then, he still suffered damage to his spiritual consciousness and severe physical injuries.

  "If I'm being honest, I don't know what's going on either. All I know is that I walked into an illusion array and wandered around in it for a bit before suddenly coming out. When I came out, I saw over a dozen spiritual artifacts flying off in all directions, including a few top-grade ones. And then that senior bat showed up!"

  That bat looked at Ru Bieli with a sly smile and said, "Even if the illusion array is broken, you must have obtained some good treasures inside, right? Otherwise, when the big array was broken, so many spiritual instruments flew out. What you got should be very precious, even a fairy instrument?" As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes lit up! And beside him, the eagle and tiger also heard this, and their eyes lit up at once. The fairy instrument is the treasure that all cultivators dream of. Who doesn't want to get it?

  "If I were to separate from you, I would immediately feel uneasy. My eyes turned and said with a hint of grievance: 'I think that in order to obtain the Spirit Artifact, one must have real power. You see my current strength, flying is still not as fast as the Spirit Artifact's arrival. What qualifications do I have to collect them? Moreover, if I were to really obtain some sacred artifact within the array, with my abilities, it would be impossible for me to refine it. Where would I put it then? And Senior Bat, when you arrived, those Spirit Artifacts happened to be flying everywhere. With your skills, shouldn't you know which direction they flew in? Now, instead of collecting the Spirit Artifacts, you're wasting time with me. The Wandering Forest is vast, and there are many demonic cultivators, some with deep cultivation bases. If they were to obtain it, wouldn't that be a loss for you? Or perhaps, Senior Bat, you want to search slowly by yourself?"

  The eagle and the tiger both looked at the bat, thinking that what he said made sense. If there was a sacred artifact in the Wuyin Forest, it would have been taken by someone long ago, and wouldn't still be waiting for this little guy to come and take it. The sacred aura of the artifact is very conspicuous in the Xian Tian realm, and this little bat clearly doesn't have any sacred aura emanating from his body, so it's impossible for him to have a sacred artifact! So this bat must be trying to shift their attention away, so that he can go look for the artifact by himself. The two demon beasts both stared coldly at the bat.

  The bat's heart trembled with fear, and he couldn't help but regretfully say: "Why did I provoke that little brat? Now I've brought fire upon myself!" He hastily said: "Tiger Boss, Dead Bird, I really thought that little brat had obtained some treasure or something, not that I wanted to monopolize those spiritual artifacts for myself. If you don't believe me, I'll take you there right now to find out! Don't look at me like that!" After finishing speaking, he flew away in a hurry!

  But as soon as they left, he let out a sigh of relief and continued to head south. He couldn't help but think about the spiritual artifacts all along the way, and every time he thought about them, his heart would ache. Just as he was lost in thought, he saw two burly men standing off against each other about 10 li ahead!

  Only one of the big men sneered, "Shi Hu, you already have an extreme-grade spiritual artifact. Are you still going to compete with me for this one? Aren't you afraid it'll burst your belly?"

  "That's a top-grade spiritual artifact, are you saying it's too much for me? Now that it's in my hands, it belongs to me. Do you think you, Black Bear, can take it away from me?"

  That black bear was furious: "You already have an extreme treasure, this one can be given to me, what's the big deal? Let's just say I owe you a favor."

  Shi Hu sneered: "What can I use your relationships for? Do you think you're very useful?"

  The black bear was furious, saying "You're looking for death!" After that, he flashed in front of the stone tiger, his fists raining down like raindrops. The stone tiger was prepared and countered with both hands, their punching speed getting faster and faster. The surroundings were filled with the sound of "bang" "bang" "bang". Suddenly, a loud crash sounded, and the two separated! At this time, the black bear's hands were slightly trembling, his fists slightly red! On the other hand, the stone tiger was smiling at the black bear, its hands shining brightly, and on them was a pair of boxing gloves!

  "That's right, Black Bear! Even if you have a special talent or are a spiritual beast, what does it matter? In close combat, you'll still be at a disadvantage. After all, I have this treasure!" He said with a laugh, proudly raising his fist guards.

  The black bear's body trembled with rage, pointing at the stone tiger and shouting: "Don't think I'm really helpless against you, although you have an extreme-grade spirit tool, but if I transform into my true form and use a high-grade spirit tool, you won't be able to get away easily either!"

  The stone tiger knew that it was telling the truth. In terms of strength, he and the black bear were about even, but he had an advantage in having a top-grade spiritual artifact. The black bear, on the other hand, had the advantage of being a spirit beast, while the stone tiger was just an ordinary demon beast. The gap between their levels couldn't be made up for by external forces. If the black bear were to transform into its true form and fight him head-on, it would likely end in mutual destruction, unlike now where he didn't have much of a problem, but the black bear's fists had already been smashed to pieces!

  The black bear looked at the silent stone tiger and said gently, "Stone Tiger, you also know that I didn't mean to oppose you. I just want to get an extreme-grade spiritual artifact. This way, my tribulation will be easier later on. So, I hope you can give me this high-grade spiritual artifact as a personal favor."

  "Impossible," Shi Hu shook his head. "You should know that even I don't have an Extreme Grade Spirit Equipment armor, and now that I've finally gotten one, I won't let you have it!"

  The black bear roared in anger: "Then don't blame me for being impolite!" After finishing speaking, his body suddenly swelled up violently, transforming into a gigantic black bear dozens of meters tall, with the silver boots on its feet shining brightly!

  And Shi Hu saw the black bear transform into its true form, and immediately transformed into a giant tiger over ten feet tall. The two front paws of the tiger were also wearing a pair of gleaming fist guards, which seemed to be its original top-grade spiritual artifact!

  But if you separate at this time, it's stunning! Isn't this stone tiger the old tiger that just separated from me? What can it do by transforming into a human figure, but earlier it appeared in that form, and earlier it was clearly not so big!

  Actually, if you don't know, most demon beasts that have reached the stage of transformation can transform into human form, but in human form, they only have 70% of their original strength. However, the spiritual energy emitted by those tens of spiritual instruments just now was really terrifying, so they all transformed back to their true forms and rushed over at full speed to see what happened. This created an illusion for Ruobieli!
