How could someone like that even try to compete with me for the good stuff I made? He's just asking for trouble.

The reason why these cultivators' cultivation levels increased so quickly, especially those who participated in the competition, was that they all suddenly broke through various bottlenecks or achieved a qualitative leap, reaching a certain cultivation level all at once.

Therefore, there are now more Nascent Soul stage cultivators, most of whom broke through from the Golden Core stage.

There were quite a few at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, and even a few at the Divine Transformation stage, with Wei Wenru leading the way, still being the first to break through.

Only the sect leader and the others knew the reason for all of this: it was inextricably linked to the dragon cub.

That day, Nian Wanzhou purified a lot of the black mist, which was witnessed by many powerful cultivators. The spiritual energy she generated after purifying the black mist was extremely pure and rich.

The spiritual energy was so dense that the Guixu Sect could not sustain its inhabitants, fearing that too much spiritual energy entering their bodies would cause them to explode and die.

The reason why cultivators were able to advance so easily was because of the spiritual energy purified by Nian Wanzhou, which made this continent, which already had very little spiritual energy, suddenly much more abundant.

And the powerful beings... also seem to have a tendency to have an epiphany and break through their realm.

"Please, fellow Daoists, stop fighting. It's only hurting our harmony." Wang Lei suddenly appeared and tried to mediate between the two people who were locked in a fierce battle.

But as soon as he finished speaking...

Le Xi turned around and snorted coldly: "Who are you? What business is it of yours?"

These words were extremely harsh, directly humiliating Wang Lei until his face turned bright red.

Unexpectedly, Nian Wanzhou also got carried away and chimed in, "That's right, mind your own business. Uh, wait, who are you...?"

Who is this? Why are they meddling in other people's fight? That's so strange!

She and Lexi let down their hair, tidied themselves up, and faced the five people.

“Fellow Daoists, we are the ones who drove that Devouring Beast here. I was the one who found it and made it go berserk here. Therefore, we are also responsible for the demonic beasts on the ground.” The male cultivator casually cupped his hands to Nian Wanzhou and reminded her.

The disdain and contempt in his eyes were unmistakable, clearly showing his deep contempt for female cultivators like her.

Nian Wanzhou was stunned for a long time before she realized what he meant.

It turned out that these people were driving away the Devouring Beast, causing it to go berserk in the vicinity. They originally planned to wait for it to go berserk and leave before taking advantage of the situation, but unexpectedly, they beat them to it.

Nian Wanzhou smiled generously, ignoring the male cultivator's contempt, and said cheerfully, "I'm sorry, although you were the ones who brought this Devouring Beast here, we came here to find our fellow disciples. It's just that I accidentally subdued this beast."

If you don't mind, let's pick up the stuff together; there's too much for us to collect completely.

She appeared magnanimous, generous, and selfless.

This greatly displeased the male cultivator, who muttered, "We were the ones who found it first, yet we have to accept your kindness. What a shameless thing to do, you filthy bitch."

After he finished speaking, he deliberately glared at Nian Wanzhou to express his dissatisfaction.

Nian Wanzhou: ? ? No, why are you cursing me? What did I do to you?

She immediately glared back, huffing and puffing.

Wang Lei, his face darkening, tugged at him and transmitted his voice, "No, we just agreed not to do anything else, let's talk properly. Our goal is to capture those demonic beasts, and besides, you should wait until they're gone before you say anything!"

But the man didn't reply. He just kept staring at Nian Wanzhou with a vengeance, as if he had some deep-seated hatred, before turning around to pick up the demon core.

However, as soon as the male cultivator said this, it immediately caused Nan Yu and the others to burst into laughter.

Le Xi couldn't help but laugh out loud. This guy really knew how to take advantage of people's kindness, not taking anyone seriously at all. He even dared to mock his junior sister in front of them. Did he have a death wish?

He glanced arrogantly at the male cultivator and sneered, "So what if you came? It was my junior sister who subdued the Devouring Beast, and we were injured because you all carelessly drove it away. We kindly offered to share the spoils, and you still have such a big problem with that..."

If you can't control yourself, don't come here shamelessly begging.

As soon as she finished speaking, the male cultivator's expression changed instantly, and the four people beside him also glared at him angrily.

Le Xi sneered and glared back without backing down.

Nan Yu and the others sneered and looked at the male cultivator: "That's right, who do you think you are, daring to talk about our Wanwan like that? If you have the guts, then don't come here licking your boots begging for a share."

"What do you mean?" One of the tall, thin men, unable to bear the sarcasm, immediately questioned him.

Le Xi sneered: "What do you think? What do you mean? You just want to share the Devouring Beast, don't you? Who do you think you are, you shameless bastards!"

"Who are you cursing? Believe me or not, I'll break your legs!" the tall, thin man roared, veins bulging on his face and bloodshot eyes.

"So what if I scold you?" Wei Wenru stood up and retorted, "What, do you think we're all alone? I heard your telepathic message. You can't have your cake and eat it too."

We wouldn't have minded sharing with you, but since your people look down on us like this, why should we treat you kindly?

In an instant...

The oppressive aura of a peak Nascent Soul stage cultivator rushed towards them, forcing the five to retreat and no longer daring to argue.

Over here, Song Yan has already woken up and is looking in their direction.

Wang Lei quickly put on a friendly expression: "Fellow Daoists, please don't be angry, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding..."

He didn't want to miss out on those good things because of this.

Le Xi sneered repeatedly, but she stopped being aggressive: "Whether it's a misunderstanding or the truth, don't even think about taking advantage this time. Just take your people and get out of here, and don't bother us."

With his senior sister backing him up, what is he afraid of?

He's also at the Nascent Soul stage, and they have even more people on their side, plus that oddball junior sister, so they're not afraid at all.

"Hmph!" The male cultivator snorted coldly, turning to look at Wang Lei. "That Devouring Beast was originally ours to deal with. It's not up to you to decide. Get out of the way!"

"You..." Wang Lei turned around and looked at the four people behind him with hesitation and speechlessness. He didn't understand where these four idiots got their courage? They were actually so confident that they would provoke the people of the Heavenly Mystery Sect.

Are they seeing only illusions?

But he couldn't see the black mist swirling around the four people.

Le Xi stood directly in front of Nian Wanzhou, shielding her behind her. "Junior sister, come behind me."

Despite the playful bickering, my junior sister is still my good junior sister, and I have to stand up for her when it's time to protect her. Even if it's unnecessary, it's cool.

When Nian Wanzhou was very sensible, she hid behind him, grabbed his sleeve, and poked her little head out to taunt him: "I fought the monster, what's it to you? If you want a share, let's fight. Who's afraid of who!"

"You, that bald guy, I'm not afraid of you!"
