I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot

Chapter 432: Power of Dao, Get In This Pot Now

Xiao Chengfeng was at the side. He watched everyone excitedly discussing how they could help the expert. He looked lonely.

Ao Cheng noticed it and immediately asked with concern, “Brother Xiao, your injury…”

“Ha-ha… It’s fine. The expert’s Flat Peach is indeed a legendary item. I’m truly blessed.”

Xiao Chengfeng said, “My life expectancy has also recovered. I don’t mind losing my cultivation. I’m already quite satisfied with the situation.”

“Don’t worry, there’ll be a way to solve it.” Ao Cheng patted him on the shoulders then said, “We’re going to the Northern Sea to capture Kunpeng, I must take your insolent lines with me to strengthen my battle confidence!”

Xiao Chengfeng instantly lit up. He said, “Nice, come on, I’ll teach you!”

The Jade Emperor also laughed and said, “Alright, I’ll give you an afternoon to prepare. Tonight, we shall head towards the Northern Sea and hunt for the expert!”

The Empress said sternly, “This time, we’ll fight back together!”

…

Time silently slipped by like water.

A peaceful day went by. A hidden dark force moved beneath the calm façade. On that day, the Jade Emperor and the Empress both looked serious. They had a mission to complete.

Nighttime gradually befell them.

Several figures rode on clouds and flew out from the Heavenly Palace. They went straight toward the Northern Sea. Meanwhile, there was an army in the Western Sea charging towards the Northern Sea, too!

A menacing vibe quietly rose in the night.

Meanwhile, at the Northern Ocean.

There was an island there. It was not eye-catching and the Immortal Qi was not that intense either. It looked insignificant and ordinary.

However, demonic energy filled up the insignificant island. Agitated roars could be heard.

Ever since that big battle during the daytime, Lord Kunpeng had been emotionally unstable. He was extremely agitated.

He was like that because he was panicking.

For some reason, he constantly felt like he had been heating up, almost as if he was being cooked. It felt weird and uncomfortable. He was a Saint, so that meant it was a terrible sign.

Moreover, he panicked when he thought of the aura of the little fox. Also, he kept thinking of what the Empress said. He felt scared and frustrated. His body ran cold from time to time.

‘The realm shouldn’t have an expert like that ever since the Absolute Era. Even if experts still exist, they wouldn’t show themselves.

‘Also… It’s just a battle. I didn’t kill them. The experts won’t hold a grudge for something like that, right?

‘No worries. Stay calm in any situation. Stay calm. You’re most probably fine.’

He comforted himself in his mind and finally calmed down. However, a small Demon suddenly ran in.

“Report—

“Lord Kunpeng, something bad happened. General Rhino and his team came back, but…something happened!”

“Huh?” Lord Kunpeng frowned. He asked sternly, “What happened?”

The small Demon looked like he was in disbelief. Then, he quietly answered, “Not sure, but it appears that…they had sacrificed themselves!”

“Maybe it’s those people from the Heavenly Palace? Did they shamelessly ambush us?!”

Lord Kunpeng suddenly widened his eyes. Then, he leaped and teleported outside. He glanced around and saw those Demons who returned.

He instantly overpowered them with his aura. “What happened?”

“Lord Kunpeng, it’s the Dogs! A legendary Immortal Dog came out of nowhere and easily killed off General Rhino!”

“The Dogs are too terrifying. That Dog simply lifted its paw and broke the Deluxe Spiritual Treasure! That was a Deluxe Spiritual Treasure, man!”

“General Rhino died peacefully because he was scared to death.”

…

The Demons were clearly terrified. They shuddered at the thought of it and kept talking about the incident with trembling voices.

Lord Kunpeng was not happy at all. His heart sank to his stomach. He was terrified.

‘The Dog paw slashed through a Deluxe Spiritual Treasure!

‘What state of cultivation is that?’

That was a Deluxe Spiritual Treasure. It was not indestructible but it would be incredibly difficult to destroy it. Even Lord Kunpeng had to use a Heavenly Spiritual Treasure to be able to destroy parts of it!

‘That Dog Demon can crush a Deluxe Spiritual Treasure with its paw. What level is that? I probably can’t stop it with a Heavenly Spiritual Treasure either!

‘I can’t even estimate its cultivation level!

‘God of Dogs. That’s a God Dog!

‘When did the dogs come up with such a bigshot? No wonder they dared to be rulers. They can’t be messed with!

‘However… That’s so unreal. It’s not possible, right?’

Lord Kunpeng confirmed in disbelief, “Are you sure it’s real? Could you perhaps be under some sort of illusion?”

“It’s real!”

“General Rhino was cooked right in front of our eyes. So horrid.”

“Yeah, also, we luckily had the chance to eat it. I have to say that the flavor is remarkable. The food of the dogs is too good, I’ve never tasted anything that delicious in my life.”

“Too bad I’m not one of the dogs. The dogs are truly superior.”

…

“Shut up, all of you! Are you all scared out of your minds? Nonsense!”

Lord Kunpeng blew his top off. He started to be mentally unstable. His voice was hoarse and cold. He asked sternly, “About that dog, do you have any other information?”

“I do,” a Chicken Demon spoke up. It tried to recall as it said, “The dog mentioned having a master. Also… Its master ordered the dog to look after the Nine-Tailed Fox. That’s why the dog was around that area.”

Lord Kunpeng almost jumped from that simple sentence.

‘This…this…

‘That dog has a master, and the master ordered the dog to look after the Nine-Tailed Fox. So, the aura of that little fox…’

Gasp—

Lord Kunpeng felt his skin crawl. He gasped. All the nearby Demons felt suffocated.

‘No way. It can’t be that much of a coincidence, right?

‘All signs point to the possibility that I’ve offended someone I shouldn’t mess with. Just like what the Empress said, someone that I can’t even fathom.

‘To the point that…the expert doesn’t even have to fight me himself. That dog could easily rub me against the floor.

‘Too scary. I’m in despair!

‘No, I’m going to die!

‘No way. I have to save myself. I have to run and I have to hide!’

Lord Kunpeng forced himself to stay calm and instantly decided to make a run for it.

‘Going back to my old ways again. After all, I did hide for the entirety of the catastrophe and avoided all sorts of tribulation. It’s just making a run for it, I’m used to that.’

Lord Kunpeng gathered his thoughts. He was about to ditch his minions. He immediately packed his things and was ready to hide in a remote land. He should hide for at least a million years.

Suddenly, two powerful figures flew in from afar while they yelled, “Kunpeng, come out and die!”

The figures of the Empress and the Emperor appeared on the island. They coldly stared at Lord Kunpeng.

“Jade Emperor, Empress, don’t bully me to this extent!”

Lord Kunpeng did not want to fight them. He yelled angrily, “We don’t have a huge grudge between us so let it be. Let’s stop here and never cross paths again. Otherwise, I can totally destroy the Heavenly Palace!”

“Ha, Kunpeng. You’re about to run, right?” The Empress saw through it all. Then, her face sank. She sneered and said, “We have orders from the expert. He wants to drink soup today. We were sent here to capture you!”

Lord Kunpeng’s face kept twisting. In the end, he said, “The unaware sinners bear no wrongs. Where’s the expert? I’m willing to apologize to him in person.”

“You think you deserve to meet the expert?”

The Jade Emperor sneered, “If you know what’s good for both of us, you’d surrender. The expert can make you delicious. It’ll be a nice death for you!”

“Argh, don’t bully me!”

Lord Kunpeng did not look happy at all. He turned livid when he was extremely terrified. He yelled, “I’ve been a respectable character since the beginning of time. Saints back then wouldn’t talk to me like that. Do you really think I’m someone you should bully?!”

The Jade Emperor and the Empress kept their powers up. Things moved around them. They said sternly, “Hmph, we’ll bring you back today no matter what. We need to complete this task for the expert!”

Lord Kunpeng laughed. His powers suddenly heightened. He flew to the air and laughed maniacally. “Haha, you guys want to do that? Yeah, right, stop looking down on me!”

The three of them immediately took out their Immortal Items and battled.

Colored hues suddenly appeared in the sky. Their spells and powers made the night shine like daytime.

The creatures of the Northern Sea, including the seawater, shivered. They were very uneasy.

Meanwhile.

At the four-part architecture, the night was dark.

Li Nianfan and the others were already resting in their rooms. It was dead quiet.

A midnight breeze passed by the garbage bin, ruffling the papers inside it.

Then, a piece of paper flew up with the wind and drifted slowly. It quietly, softly, drifted to the Northside.

At the Northern Sea, the battles were still ongoing.

It was two against one for the Jade Emperor and the Empress. They naturally had an advantage.

The Jade Emperor held the Sun Sword. He had the Hao Tian Pyramid on his head. He was surrounded by limitless Insights. His sword attacks shook the earth. The aura of it could split the sea in half. There was a vacuum area at the center of the sea. Suddenly, the sea shot up into the air like two giant curtains!

The Land of Mountains and Rivers Painting circled the Empress. She had the Wishing Jade in her hand. She waved it and shouted, “As you wish!”

The seawater immediately levitated and formed a gigantic beast. It swallowed Lord Kunpeng. Then, it compressed itself to the extreme. The space around it cracked loudly as it crushed the insides, just like how a crushed mirror would sound. A black space appeared with an exposed wormhole.

Clang!

A deafening bell sound was heard within the ball of water.

Then, strands of golden light burst through it like lasers from within.

The golden light expanded and finally overpowered the water ball. It formed into a giant golden bell!

Lord Kunpeng levitated in the golden bell. He looked livid as he gritted his teeth. At the same time, he also looked kind of pleased.

He mocked coldly, “Jade Emperor, Empress, I’m protected by the Eastern Bell. Even if I stand here and let you attack me, what can you do about it?”

The Jade Emperor looked serious. He said, “We’ll break your cowardice shell today no matter what!”

Their attacks became fiercer.

Sea waves were in the air at the Northern Sea. The bell sounds also kept ringing while the golden light shook.

“Haha, go on. Use more force!”

Lord Kunpeng laughed maniacally in the Eastern Bell. “This bell is a rare Heavenly Spiritual Treasure. The level of defense is the best in the realm! Even Saints can’t penetrate it with attacks. What can you do about it?”

The Jade Emperor and the Empress both looked annoyed.

‘You ignorant fool, the expert uses top-notch Heavenly Spiritual Treasure for meals. Your Heavenly Spiritual Treasure’s just a fancy toy. What are you so pleased about?!’

However, they felt helpless and anxious. They were not able to break that shield.

‘This is the assigned mission from the expert. If we can’t complete it, how can we ever face the expert again?’

‘We’re so useless. Sorry, expert!’

“Alright. I’m not sticking around to play with you folks. I’m leaving, bye!”

Lord Kunpeng chuckled and left in front of the Empress and the Jade Emperor.

The Jade Emperor and the Empress chased after him. “Kunpeng, where are you running to?!”

Lord Kunpeng teased them, “Chase me, come on, I won’t fight back.”

Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew by.

A paper appeared on the faraway horizon. The light-weighted paper swirled with the wind.

It was weird that the big piece of paper kept flying with the wind. Moreover…it was flying really fast. The paper looked like it was leisurely catching up with the others at its slow pace.

The three of them simultaneously looked at the paper.

Their faces changed when they saw it.

“This…this is…”

The Jade Emperor and the Empress widened their eyes at the same time. They held their breaths and stared at it.

‘The painting of the expert!’

‘That’s right. It’s the painting of the expert. The paper has uneven wrinkles too because it was crumpled by the expert.’

They were initially pained because they thought the expert was being wasteful when he tossed his painting into the garbage can. Apparently, he was just waiting for the right moment.

Lord Kunpeng kept wincing. He was extremely horrified. His hair stood on end.

‘Big horror!’

He felt a tremendous fear when he first laid eyes on the painting. It felt like…he was a mouse who saw a snake or a fish who saw a cat. He had met his match!

‘That painting is my nemesis. My big nemesis!’

Lord Kunpeng instantly went pale when he saw the contents of the painting. His lips quivered like crazy. He felt like a terrible and odd fate had befallen him. It made him feel like he was a bowl of soup. He could not resist it.

‘Is this the work of the expert, the expert that the Jade Emperor and the Empress talked about?’

He thought about that and almost went deranged from fright.

‘Run, I have to disregard everything and run!’

Spurt!

He spat out a mouthful of blood. He was extremely fast when he turned to run. His potential exploded and he ran for countless miles in the blink of an eye.

The painting stayed in the same spot. The seawater from the painting poured out, merging with the surrounding seawater. It became a huge pot!

A bright light swirled out from the ‘pot’ and a powerful Dao started to flow within the realm. Then, it finally transformed into a sentence.

‘Kunpeng, get in this pot now.’
