"Three million experience is quite impressive, reaching the level of an Immortal Master. It seems like when it comes to the system’s rewards, there’s not much difference." Without making a move, Small Knife took a sip of tea.

No one outside was spared.

Since they attacked me, they must pay the price.

Soon, the gate to the courtyard opened.

A large number of subordinates rushed out.

"What’s this?"

"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!"

"Where’s the Immortal Master?"

"Ah, defeated, run!"

...!

Small Knife didn’t glance at the surrounding chaos, heading directly towards the center of the island.

After scanning the area with the Totem Pole’s domain, the map had already been marked.

Soon, he arrived at the cave entrance.

A group of martial artists was here, led by two Innate ones who looked at Small Knife with uncertainty and suspicion.

Everything happened too fast; they still didn’t understand.

"Misunderstanding! It must be a misunderstanding." That...

"I’ll handle this one." The Fire Ghost, who had been holed up in the Witch Residence, spoke up.

She stretched out her hand, and a small fireball shot out swiftly.

The Innate Martial Artist shouted and swung his long knife, bursting forth with dense Innate True Qi, forcibly cutting down the small fireball.

This was a First Realm skill after all.

"Not bad!" The Fire Ghost smiled sweetly and shot out a second one.

Using a special cultivation technique, the fireballs she shot were slightly weaker than an actual First Realm skill, and they weren’t instantaneous, even so.

Against an Innate Martial Artist, it was still sufficient.

Seeing this.

The other martial artist’s face changed, and he surprisingly turned and ran into the cave.

The Scar-faced Ghost chuckled and said, "Leave the rest to me."

He already had a small white flag in his hand, shaking it, ten shadows flew out.

Easily blocking the other martial artist.

The other martial artists looked at each other; although many of them could be considered hundred-level powerhouses, they were ultimately mortals, and intervening in such battles often meant death.

Someone quietly took out a Spirit Talisman.

For martial artists, even for Innates, using a Spirit Talisman took time and couldn’t be instant-cast.

Before the Spirit Talisman could activate, a shadow had already entered his body.

So, Small Knife didn’t even glance at them, striding into the cave.

Mountain Grass followed behind, his gaze somewhat envious and complex.

Such means, as a mortal he could only watch, completely unable to intervene.

It wasn’t on the same level anymore.

Truly envious.

He didn’t worry about reaching the hundred-level, but about what lay beyond.

Small Knife strode forward.

The pitch-black cave had no effect on him.

The path was like a maze with many forks, and under normal circumstances, finding the right way would be difficult.

But Small Knife had the map.

And so, he moved faster and faster.

Soon approaching the Spiritual Acupoint.

Swish, swish! ...!

Suddenly, a rain of arrows shot out from the walls, covering the sky with no dead corners.

Caught off guard, Small Knife was startled, and the Golden Bell instantly emerged, enveloping his people.

Soon, a ground full of arrows fell.

The Golden Bell’s luster rapidly dimmed. -1hp.

The power of these traps was evident.

Even if Immortal Masters passed using Spirit Talismans for protection, it could cost lives.

-1hp, -1hp.

The Golden Bell shook.

Hmm, Small Knife noticed that among those arrows were two special ones.

An ordinary Entry-level Body-Protecting Talisman would be shattered instantly.

Small Knife looked over.

Two arrows made purely of metal lay on the ground.

Then Small Knife looked up into the depths and sneered: "Come out; I’ve discovered you."

Hmph!

Two figures appeared, two old men dressed as Immortal Masters stepped out, studying Small Knife’s Protective Golden Bell with serious and uncertain eyes.

However, they seemed to have a guess.

"A First-Layer Qi Cultivation Inner Sect Disciple, not welcomed here by us...!"

But Small Knife couldn’t be bothered to waste words; the Golden Bell flew out directly, heading towards the two Immortal Masters.

"How bold!" The two simultaneously rejoiced, flicking their hands as Spirit Talismans shot out.

A golden light and a yellow light shot out.

Bang, bang.

-1hp, -1hp.

The Golden Bell shuddered twice but recovered after showing -1hp.

"Middle-grade Magical Artifact?" One old Immortal Master stuttered, not knowing if it was out of nervousness or excitement.

The other was extremely excited, unable to hide the greed in his eyes.

Using such a defensive artifact for attack?

Young people truly are foolish, this is an opportunity.

Instantly, the two metal arrows that had fallen to the ground suddenly emitted gold and yellow lights, shooting rapidly at Small Knife.

Ha ha!

The two Immortal Masters rejoiced, once again each shooting out a Spirit Talisman, aimed at the descending Golden Bell.

Even though it’s middle grade, just blocking for a moment is enough.

But.

The robe on his body suddenly manifested a shadow, intercepting the incoming arrows before.

"A second defensive artifact?"

"How is this possible?"

The two old Immortal Masters were utterly incredulous.

-1hp, -1hp.

Again, a slight tremble, the Golden Bell completely enveloped the two.

Bang, bang!

-1hp, -1hp.

The slightly shrunken Golden Bell expanded a bit again, then shrank.

Snap, snap!

The Body-Protecting Talisman was crushed.

The slightly shrunken Golden Bell flew back to Small Knife.

He stored it in his Personal Space.

These two old guys were quite formidable.

They almost halved the life of his Golden Bell.

Their Spirit Talisman activation was noticeably fast.

This was a Lifebound Magical Artifact, with middle-grade power.
