I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense Chapter 1228

Chapter 1228: Chapter 1229: I Don't Understand, But It's Deeply Shocking Chapter 1228: Chapter 1229: I Don't Understand, But It's Deeply Shocking Li Xiaobai revealed a kind smile and suddenly unfurled the scroll in his hands.

However, the expected sinister aura did not manifest; the scroll, depicting two children, suddenly burst into flames and turned to ash.

“Damn, it isn't failing at such a critical moment, is it?”

“Seriously, this is like being cursed with bad luck, but it shouldn't be this bad!”

Li Xiaobai was shocked; this artwork by Beichen Feng was one of the trump cards he relied upon, and now it had failed, possibly because he had unfolded it too many times, depleting all its power.

“Boy, you can't escape. Reveal your true form immediately by dropping the disguise spell!”

The Blood Fiend Elder charged forward first, dragging a long trail of blood light coming at high speed, eager to execute Li Xiaobai right away, with the other Elders quick to follow. This was a great opportunity to earn merit for their sect, not to mention the target was a master of the Saint Realm – a perfect moment to shine.

Xueshenzi stood rooted to the spot, disbelief flickering in his eyes. Just a moment ago, he sensed a familiar power, immense and terrifying, but it disappeared as quickly as it came, making him wonder if he had imagined it.

But the subsequent changes in the environment proved to him that it was not an illusion.

The darkness and evil enveloping the sect seemed to diminish slightly, and simultaneously, a sun slowly rose into the sky.

The experts at the mountain gate didn't notice anything unusual as everything still appeared under the control of the Blood Demon Sect. The only puzzling thing for them was the sight of two children on the golden chariot under Li Xiaobai's feet, pointing at the sun as if debating something.

These two young children, a few years old, with upright pigtails and dressed in red smocks, looked plump and innocently cheerful.

“How can there be children in such a place?”

“When did they appear by this boy's side; why did I not notice?”

“Forget it, just capture them all together!”

They were puzzled, yet they couldn't ponder for long, as Li Xiaobai was now within reach. If they struck together, no matter how strong this guy was, they could suppress him!

On the golden chariot, Li Xiaobai was thrilled to see the two children suddenly appear. The old saying was true; Beichen Feng's work was indeed powerful. Unlike before when the painting merely created visions that led people into its realm, this time people from within the realm had directly run out.

“My little ancestors, it's all up to you now!”

Li Xiaobai bowed with clasped hands to the two little figures. This was the first time he had seen characters from a realm manifest into reality. How could these figures from the painting display their power without their unique domain?

“My dear sir, I believe that at sunrise things appear close, and at noon, they seem far. What do you think?”

One child in a red smock looked at Li Xiaobai and the attacking Elders, now as alive as real persons, capable of seeing cultivators in reality and engaging in conversations.

“Exactly, exactly, what you said is right.”

Li Xiaobai nodded, hoping they would act soon to fend off the enemies. He noticed that the Ghost Infants had fled the moment these two children appeared, showing apparent fear that was a promising sign.

“Absolutely not, I say the sun is far at sunrise, and close at noon!”

The other child disagreed, shaking his head; the two differed completely on when the sun was closer or further away.

Li Xiaobai, unsure of what to say at the moment, simply nodded: “Your point makes sense too!”

“No, when the sun rises, it's as large as a carriage cover, but by noon it's as small as a basin. Is this not because things far away seem small and things that are near appear large…”

“The dawn breaks cool and calm, but by midday it feels like dipping into a boiling pot, is it not that the closer one gets, the hotter it is, and the further one is, the cooler it remains…”

“Who made you so knowledgeable?”

Li Xiaobai's words were automatically ignored, and the two children started arguing again.

“Damn it, what gibberish are they speaking, where did these two come from?”

“I don't know, this old man can't understand, but I'm deeply shocked!”

“Enough nonsense, just kill them directly!”

Several cultivators at the Saint Realm remained vigilant, guarding against any desperate counterattack from Li Xiaobai. They vaguely sensed something unusual about the two children, but had no time to ponder deeper. Given their cultivation level in the Saint Realm, few in the world could contest them, and the appearance of two little beings by their opponent's side seemed futile.

A woman from Hehuan's Sect with a fox mask couldn't help but make the first move, her mask swelling in the wind and transforming into a huge, gaping mouth that ferociously bit down towards Li Xiaobai.

“I think, the sun shines like a wheel, balanced and tranquil, capable of dispelling all evil spirits and demons from the world!”

One of the children spoke again, but his words seemed off-topic.

The other child nodded in agreement: “Good!”

The two reached a consensus, and in a flash, a spark unexpectedly flickered within the gaping mouth that blotted out the sky. A blazing sun manifested in the void, piercing through the fox mask. The intense heat distorted the void, causing the elder from Hehuan's Sect to retreat quickly. The searing brilliance in the void was too glaring to gaze directly at.

The sun grew larger, seemingly ready to engulf the entire area.

Upon seeing this, the crowd couldn't help but gasp in astonishment: “Can these two children control the sun?”

“It's done, I knew this scroll contained an extremely terrifying power!”

Li Xiaobai was overjoyed and said to the two children: “They do not know what the great sun is, show them!”

“As the sun rises at dawn close to people, don't believe me, watch!”

After the fox mask was burned, the two little kids started arguing again. Surprisingly, one of them took out a bundle of rope and threw it towards the sky. The rope looped around the sun, and with a pull of his small hand, the great sun was dragged closer inch by inch.

This scene nearly made everyone's eyeballs pop out. A child pulling the sun with a rope with bare hands?

Isn't this a demon?

Li Xiaobai was also terrified. He retracted his golden chariot and the trio, including the two children, fell freely from mid-air.

“That blazing sun has already broken free, the spatial constraints here are lifted!”

“I'm off!”

With a twist of his wrist, he pulled out a Thousand-Miles Instant Travel Talisman. A flash of golden light, and Li Xiaobai disappeared without a trace, leaving behind the shocked crowd.

“That kid has escaped, kill him!”

The Shadow Assassin from the Shadow Demon Lineage transformed into a grey filament and slid into the void, disappearing equally traceless. He went to pursue Li Xiaobai. For a cultivator of the Saint Realm, tracking residual energy in the space was easy, but in an instant, this shadow assassin was violently ejected from the void by a terrifying force.

His body was as red as blood, steam rising. Looking up, the blazing sun in the void was somehow dragged close by the child!
