Invincible Beyond Heavens: Cultivating With A Broken EXP System Chapter 316: State of Enlightenment!

Li Yun slowly flexed his fingers as he sensed the newly ford force within himself. A faint murderous aura lingered around his hand before fading back into his body.

Although it was still shallow compared to his other attainnts, he knew this was only the beginning.

Once this Killing Intent reached the level of his Sword Intent, Fla Intent, Wind Intent, or Lightning Intent, then it would beco another terrifying trump card hidden in his arsenal.

A faint gleam appeared in Li Yun’s eyes as a new thought surfaced.

"I need to use this Killing Intent as a foundation to derive Slaughter Intent into my Sword Intent."

He spoke softly while pondering the path ahead.

"If I succeed... then my Sword Intent can transform into Slaughter Sword Intent."

Li Yun understood clearly that Killing Intent and Slaughter Intent were not the sa thing. They were related, yet distinct. Killing Intent represented decisive lethality, the unwavering will to destroy an enemy.

Slaughter Intent, however, was deeper, fiercer, and far more tyrannical. It was born from endless battle, rivers of blood, and the montum of cutting down countless foes without pause.

Still, both paths shared the sa root.

They were founded upon the art of killing.

Because of that connection, Li Yun felt there was a real possibility. If his mastery of Killing Intent rose high enough, then he could use it as a bridge to guide Slaughter Intent into his Sword Intent.

Only through such a thod could he see a path toward creating sothing greater.

A sword intent that did not rely cut.

A sword intent that existed solely to slaughter.

The thought alone caused his blood to stir.

Just as he was considering future possibilities, several notifications suddenly appeared before his eyes.

----

[Ding! Quest Completed: "Comprehend Killing Intent"]

[Reward: 1000 Mid Grade Spirit Stones, 10000 EXP]

[Ding! Quest Completed: "Find the Five Elental Cultivation Art"]

[Reward: 10000 EXP]

----

Li Yun’s lips curved upward.

"Nice."

The rewards were generous, especially since both objectives had aligned naturally with what he already intended to do. He had gained new power, acquired a major cultivation art, and now received another large amount of EXP on top of it all.

Before he could examine his gains further, another notification appeared.

----

[Quest Level: C]

Objective: Beco Champion in the Hidden Dragon Tournant

Reward: 50000 EXP

----

Li Yun’s eyes widened slightly.

"50000 EXP?"

Even he could not help being surprised by the reward.

For a mont, excitent surged through him, but it quickly settled into thoughtfulness. He already knew that after each advancent, the amount of EXP required to raise his Comprehension and Spirit Soul stats increased dramatically. Every breakthrough demanded far more than the last.

Because of that, Li Yun could already foresee the future.

There would co a ti when even 50000 EXP would no longer seem like much.

This realization did not discourage him. Instead, it made him more alert to how rapidly he needed to grow.

Still, after considering the matter, he gave a slow nod.

"For becoming champion of the Hidden Dragon Tournant, this reward is more than worth it."

The Hidden Dragon Tournant gathered the greatest young geniuses of the Southern Martial Domain. To stand at the very top of such a stage would not only bring imnse rewards, but also prestige, resources, and influence beyond asure.

And now, with the system placing such value upon it, Li Yun beca even more interested.

A sharp smile ford on his face.

"It seems Hidden Dragon Island will be far more entertaining than I thought."

"Status." Li Yun muttered.

"Use 45,000 EXP to increase both Spirit Soul and Comprehension."

Li Yun gave the command without the slightest hesitation.

The mont his words fell, the system responded imdiately.

A vast and refreshing force surged through every part of his being like a sacred spring washing over body, mind, and soul. It was not violent, nor did it feel oppressive. Instead, it carried a profound gentleness, as though countless invisible shackles hidden within him were quietly being loosened and shattered one after another.

The first transformation began within his soul.

Li Yun felt his Spirit Soul tremble softly before expanding in depth and purity. The indigo radiance within his spiritual sea brightened at once, becoming richer, denser, and far more refined than before. His soul force sharpened rapidly, growing more stable and more profound with every passing breath.

In that instant, his Spirit Soul stepped into the Indigo Soul Sixth Tier.

The benefits appeared imdiately.

His perception expanded to a shocking degree. Every grain of dust within the chamber seed clear enough to count. The circulation of qi in the surrounding air beca distinct. He could hear the faint hum of hidden formations buried within the walls and sense the subtle elental balance flowing beneath the Five Elental Bed.

Even the darkness lingering in the corners of the chamber no longer seed empty. It carried movent, texture, and hidden detail.

Then the second transformation began.

His mind suddenly beca incomparably clear.

It felt as though a mirror buried beneath years of dust had been wiped clean in a single instant. Thoughts moved faster than ever before. Logic connected effortlessly. Complicated matters that once required long consideration now arranged themselves neatly the mont he examined them.

Connections ford naturally.

Patterns revealed themselves instantly.

What had once been difficult beca simple.

What had once been obscure beca obvious.

His Comprehension stat had also entered the Sixth Tier.

And at the exact mont both breakthroughs completed, sothing even greater descended upon him.

Li Yun entered enlightennt.

His body remained seated quietly within the treasure chamber, yet his consciousness seed to rise beyond the ordinary limits of flesh and thought.

The world around him transford completely.

The qi drifting through the air no longer appeared as invisible energy. It beca countless threads of law and principle woven through space itself.

The torchlight flickering against the walls no longer looked like ordinary fla. It revealed traces of fire essence containing warmth, destruction, vitality, rage, and endless change.

The faint wind moving through cracks in the stone beca visible currents of motion and freedom.

The residual lightning within his body transford into lines of speed, judgnt, and violent destruction.

Even the sword resting beside him no longer seed like forged tal.

It beca endless pathways of sharpness, will, and the eternal truth of cutting.

Li Yun’s breathing slowed until it was almost imperceptible.

His consciousness sank deeper into that profound state.

One by one, the intents he had cultivated began to resonate.

Li Yun remained imrsed in that profound state for three full days. During that ti, he neither moved nor spoke. He sat upon the cracked Five Elental Bed like a statue carved from stone, while the surrounding chamber remained filled with faint traces of sword sharpness, lingering heat, restless wind currents, and occasional sparks of lightning.

The Iron Blood Banner beside him had long since fallen silent, yet the murderous aura it had once released still seed to cling faintly to the air.
