Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

Seeing He Li and the others land in the square...

Yun Yi and the other high-ranking Qi cultivators of the Blazing Sun Sect remained calm, as if they had already noticed them and didn't take them seriously, simply staring at them with composure.

After all, He Li and his group had swaggered over when they arrived.

They never intended to hide it.

It was precisely because of this that Yunyi and the others naturally noticed He Li and his group very early on.

Now, seeing them land...

Yun Yi didn't speak, but a beautiful female elder in red, who was at the end of the seating arrangement on the high platform, stood up and said coldly, "You ants from the lower realm are quite bold."

"Coming to the Middle Realm, coming to my Blazing Sun Sect, instead of keeping a low profile, you dare to be so arrogant?"

"You guys really are..."

"act recklessly!!!"

As the elder spoke, his aura as a Nascent Soul stage expert suddenly erupted and crushed towards He Li and the others. However, this pressure was utterly weak to He Li.

He stood there, too lazy to move.

The elder's eyes flashed with surprise upon seeing this, seemingly not expecting that He Li and the others could ignore his oppressive aura.

Seeing this, the spirit of Qingyang Mountain said sarcastically, "Elder Cai is still as brainless as ever. Since we dare to appear openly, we are not afraid of you."

"Look at the other elders present!"

"None of them spoke up or tried to show off."

"But you're like a clueless fool..."

"No wonder you've remained at the bottom of the elders all these years and haven't been able to rise!"

Upon hearing this, Elder Shi of the Blazing Sun Sect, Cai Ming, glared angrily at the Spirit of Qingyang Mountain, about to say something, but Yun Yi waved his hand to signal her to be quiet.

The sect leader gave the order, and Caiming dared not disobey.

She had no choice but to shut her mouth in resentment.

Then, Yun Yi's indifferent gaze swept over He Li and the others before finally returning to the spirit of Qingyang Mountain: "Having gone to the lower realm, has Qingyang forgotten that you are a being from the upper realm?"

"A sacred mountain, possessing a spirit, has taken human form, yet it willingly associates with those lowly warriors and ants of the lower realm, utterly shameless?"

"Qingyang, where has your former arrogance gone?"

As he spoke, he looked at Bai Jian again.

"As an inner disciple and elder, his strength is so weak that he can't even deal with martial artists from the lower realms, yet he willingly degenerates and associates with these martial artists, just like Qingyang..."

"You are unworthy to be a disciple of the Blazing Sun Sect!"

After he finished speaking, Bai Jian's face turned pale, but Qingyang Mountain Spirit didn't care at all and even sneered.

"Stop talking badly about me here."

"Is it shameful to follow beings from the lower realms?"

"Don't forget, the current prosperity of the Middle Realm is built on the resource supply of the Lower Realm. Your ancestors were all beings from the Lower Realm."

"Now you're saying that?"

"In other words, you mean... your ancestors are also a disgrace to you?"

The spirit of Qingyang Mountain spoke cryptically.

Upon hearing this, Yunyi's eyes grew increasingly cold.

The Grand Elder behind him also stepped forward and coldly stared at Qingyang Mountain Spirit: "Sect Master, why waste your breath on these traitors, disgraceful people, and ants?"

"If you have any questions, we'll have time to ask once we've taken them down."

"We have other things to do right now."

"Making that arrangement is the most important thing!"

Upon hearing the elder's words, Yunyi nodded.

"Well then, let the First Elder capture these ants and send them to the Black Ice Prison to be kept by the Tenth Elder. I will personally interrogate them after this matter is settled..."

"Let's see how they got to the Middle Realm, so we can find out more about the situation in the Lower Realm."

He calmly issued the order.

He then looked at the many disciples present.

It was as if taking down He Li and the others was a foregone conclusion with the Grand Elder's intervention, and there was no need to worry about it anymore. Everyone else looked on with amusement at this.

The disciples were even more agitated and discussing it...

"They really are from the lower realms!"

"Tsk tsk~ A mere martial artist from the lower realm is no match for us cultivators."

"I wonder why Senior Sister Bai Jian and the spirits of Qingyang Mountain would follow these ants from the lower realm. It's impossible that they were actually defeated and threatened by them in a direct confrontation, right?"

"I've heard that people in the lower realms all possess supernatural powers."

"Perhaps they won by virtue of their supernatural powers?"

"That...that's possible."

"Speaking of which, if their supernatural powers are so great, won't it cause problems if the Grand Elder intervenes?"

"Don't worry, the Grand Elder's cultivation has reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. In the lower realm, he would be a living immortal. No matter how powerful those martial artists in the lower realm are, could they possibly stand against the Grand Elder?"

"It should be known that even in the Middle Realm, those at the Nascent Soul stage are pillars of strength, far surpassing ordinary martial artists."

"That's true..."

The Qi practitioners chatted and laughed.

They didn't believe the Grand Elder couldn't handle He Li and the others.

Even if we really can't win...

But isn't the sect leader still there? Besides, there's also the Supreme Elder who's in seclusion in the back mountains.

With these powerful figures around, even if a mere martial artist from the lower realm possesses extraordinary abilities, there is absolutely no chance of turning the tide. Thinking of this, these Qi Refiners were filled with anticipation.

They looked forward to the battle to come.

They also wanted to see what the fighting methods and supernatural powers of the warriors from the lower realms were.

After all, since their ancestors left the lower realm, these Qi cultivators who originally possessed supernatural powers lost them, so they naturally still harbored curiosity about supernatural powers.

While everyone was discussing it...

The Grand Elder is also ready to make his move!

However, just as he was about to cast the spell...

boom!!!

Suddenly, He Li's spiritual energy erupted, and his strength seemed to have broken through in an instant.

This sudden turn of events not only stunned the many Qi cultivators present, but also bewildered Yu Qingge and the others. They couldn't understand how He Li had inexplicably broken through again.

The only one present who wasn't surprised was Mu Lan.

After all, she knew that He Li had devoured the Nascent Soul stage cultivator, Lin Gui, back in the lower realm.

That Scaled Demon was at the Nascent Soul stage...

The spiritual energy within his body is naturally enormous.

He should have broken through to the next level by devouring him.

Therefore, Mu Lan's breakthrough was expected, so she didn't react much. However, after a brief moment of surprise, the Grand Elder and the others realized what was happening and their eyes were filled with contempt...

"You broke through? You're quite lucky."

The Grand Elder chuckled, "The spiritual energy in the lower realm is so scarce, I imagine it must be very difficult for you martial artists to cultivate?"

"Now I have arrived at my Middle Realm, where spiritual energy is abundant..."

"Your cultivation will naturally be much faster."

"It's a pity..." he said disdainfully, "It's a pity that you are still just martial arts practitioners. Even if you break through, you are still weak compared to us cultivators."

"The so-called difference between immortals and mortals..."

"You may have imagined it, but you can't understand it, since there are no cultivators in your lower realm."

"But you're lucky to have come to the Middle Realm and met me. I won't be stingy with my time. I'll show you just how big the difference is between immortals and mortals..."

hum! ! !

As he spoke, the Grand Elder raised his hand and formed a hand seal.

In the blink of an eye, a fiery red ring appeared behind him, with hundreds of fireballs, each containing scorching heat and seemingly capable of melting a person, condensing within the ring...

The Qi practitioners were very excited to see this.

"Is this the Grand Elder's magic?"

"Wow, even from hundreds of meters away, I feel like I'm about to melt..."

"Truly worthy of being called the Grand Elder!"

"Of course! The Grand Elder is, after all, the strongest Qi Refiner in the sect besides the Sect Master and the Supreme Elder. Even if the level of his spells is not high, their power is still terrifying."

"Tsk~ Come to think of it, I've forgotten what kind of magic the Grand Elder knows since he hasn't made a move in so many years."

"I never expected to have the opportunity to see this today!"

"Hehe, look closely, maybe we can even learn something from this magic..."

"That's right, and we have to thank these people from the lower realm who traveled all the way here to deliver this message. If they hadn't been so reckless as to come looking for their own deaths..."

"Where can we see this?"

The Qi Refiners were both very curious and eagerly anticipating the Grand Elder's intervention.

They couldn't help but tease He Li and the others.

But He Li didn't care at all.

After all, who cares about the nonsense of a dead man?

He merely glanced at the confident elder, who was about to unleash his magic without even looking at him, and shook his head: "I knew all you Qi cultivators from the Upper Realm were like this."

"I wonder who started it..."

Why do you always look down on the lower realms?

"Don't you know...?"

"Underestimating your opponent...can lead to death!!!"

hum! ! !

As soon as He Li finished speaking, his words filled with murderous intent, an invisible spiritual force froze the Grand Elder, who was about to cast a spell. Before the elder could react in surprise, a terrifying pressure suddenly erupted...

puff! ! !

Instantly, the Grand Elder was crushed into a pulp.

The square fell into a deathly silence!
