Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Chapter 736: Chapter 462: Competition (Part 2)_3

Watching the encyclopedia of the Martial World speak confidently in the video, Beiming Longteng’s face turned an iron shade of blue, his anger causing him to lose his composure as he directly summoned his innate Artifact Spirit.

“Young Master, please calm your anger!”

A dragon scale shimmered in the void, cutting off the video of the encyclopedia of the Martial World, then proceeded to persuade Beiming Longteng, “This is a provocation strategy, Young Master. You must not fall for the calculations of those people and walk right into their trap!”

“Hmph!!!”

Beiming Longteng snorted coldly, grinding his teeth and clenching his fists tightly, it took him a while to suppress the anger in his heart.

Months ago, like other successors of the Great Cavern Heavens and disciples of the Immortal Sect, he had plunged headfirst into the vast ocean of “Supernatural Live-Streaming,” intending to control that group of people, seize their merit, and divide their fortune.

He had originally thought it was a matter of “where a foe can go, I, too, can venture.” With the potentiality of Beiming Dragon Abyss and his own charm as Beiming Longteng, he thought he could match or even surpass those three…

But he soon found out that was not the case at all!

Under the guidance of that group of people, the live-streaming had split into three categories, corresponding to the “Live-Stream’s Three Giants.”

The first category, needless to say, was demon-slaying and demon-exorcising, eliminating all kinds of Dark Evil Forces and Heretic God Sects, with “Martial Frenzied Rascal” and “Li Xuanyuan” being foremost. Many successors of the Great Cavern Heavens, especially the Righteous Daoist cultivators, were walking this path.

The second category was a bit more unique, as it involved destroying temples, aiding in the unveiling of Blessed lands, forcefully bringing the ancient sects of those lands into the world. Represented by “Mingxiao Taoist Temple’s Shi Jian,” who has the Heaven Reaching abilities to avoid disasters and evade cataclysms, successors of such stature, like Li Yuzhao of Alliance Heavenly Tao, were also involved in such deeds.

The third category was imparting martial arts and skills, with Martial Frenzied Rascal, Mingxiao Tao, and also Qianjin, whose relationship with them was unknown, all having accomplishments here, passing down cultivation techniques, the Hundred Arts of Cultivation, Alchemy Cauldron Artifact Refining, and so on.

Of the three categories, the second one need not be discussed; Beiming Dragon Abyss follows the Demon Path, a path against the heavens. What Heaven Reaching method do they have? The Crossing the Tribulation for them is to withstand, to endure. If you endure, you pass; if not, you die. So, he couldn’t get involved in that category at all.

He could only take the path of demon-slaying and exorcising or the third path of imparting techniques.

But neither of these paths was easy to walk.

As for demon-slaying and exorcising, that is to sweep away the Heretic God Sects.

This involved an issue of “gathering material.”

Others could do it openly and honorably, but he couldn’t.

Because he was a Demon Path cultivator, who had previously allied with the Vajra Temple and others to create chaos. If he showed his face, Martial Frenzied Rascal would surely come knocking at the door.

Therefore, he could only gather material first and then live-stream using a “recorded broadcast.”

Even so, the other side did not make it easy for him, first exposing his identity as a Demon Path cultivator, then bringing up his collusion with the Vajra Temple, and finally even putting him on the Blue Star Federation’s wanted list. This made him a target of everyone’s disdain, completely ruining his reputation, and eventually, even his live-streaming channel got banned.

Afterward, the Demon Artifact he owned was quite extraordinary, ranked as supreme quality. After a while, he mastered network technology and lifted the blockades. He even deployed a swarm of Underworld Soldier Water Army to whitewash himself, but still, he could not change the situation.

After all, the influence of those three was too great, and they had already established a precedented fact in the audience’s mind. No matter how hard his Underworld Soldier Water Army tried, they couldn’t remove the stains on his reputation.

Demon-slaying and exorcising couldn’t restore his reputation.

Then, should he impart techniques and entice people with benefits?

In theory, that would work, but in practice…

How could this be achieved?

With those three paving the way with their exquisite martial arts and easy-to-understand Taoism, especially the Martial Arts Scripture, which had no Spiritual Root restrictions and was almost universal, they held an unshakable position in this field of imparting techniques.

In contrast, though Beiming Dragon Abyss was a great Immortal Gate with profound heritage and numerous cultivation techniques and skills to pass on, none of these techniques and skills were low in Quality Rank. Even the most basic beginner techniques were not for everyone to cultivate or succeed in.

According to the usual standards of these Great Cavern Heavens Immortal Sects, if you weren’t an exceptional talent, you could not enter their gates. But in today’s world, there weren’t so many favored by the heavens or exceptional talents.

Therefore, Beiming Longteng felt quite powerless. The techniques he offered simply could not compare with the martial arts and Taoism of those three and were not accepted by the public. Instead, they attracted criticism and slander.

It was not just him suffering this fate; other successors of the Great Cavern Heavens faced the same fate. Like the Mysterious Heaven Sword Child, who, due to his extreme arrogance and sect biases, faced requests for teaching from the audience and bluntly threw out the words, “Commoners cannot enter my Mysterious Heaven Path.”

Then… he experienced the assault of netizens.

If Mysterious Heaven Sword Child was in such a state, his situation as Beiming Dragon Prince was even worse. Not transmitting would have been better; transmitting directly led to a tarnished reputation, and he was even accused of “spreading dangerous information.”

Whom could he turn to for reason, when these mortals were as stupid as pigs and still blamed the inadequacy of the techniques he imparted to them?

And just when that was bad enough, there was also a bunch of “Water Army” vigorously smearing his reputation.

It seemed like this “encyclopedia of the Martial World” was his number one hater!

Beiming Longteng was certain that this person had backing; it was highly likely that he was bait to lure him into a trap.

If it weren’t for this serious concern, he would have already tracked down this person, who bombarded him daily online, and finished him off.

Exterminating demons, aiding blessed lands, transferring power, and imparting teachings.

All three racing tracks, completely blocked!

What to do?

Can’t do anything!

So now, Beiming Longteng was having a severe headache.

Couldn’t overcome them head-on, couldn’t manage from the side!

He couldn’t even accuse those three of excluding others and suppressing the righteous warriors of “Demon-Exterminating and Guard of The Dao.”

Because they only targeted him, they were quite lenient with other Cave Heaven Successors. Not to mention Li Yuzhao of the Alliance Heavenly Tao, even that demoness from the Joyous Union Sect could openly stream, and although she was banned several times for “obscene pornography,” it was just a ban. No one actually came to her door to kill her.

Without even leaving such a pretext, how could he fight back?

No way to start!

If it were only a matter of having no way to start, that would be all, he could just give up and wait for death.

But it wasn’t just a matter of having no way to start; there was also a sword hanging over his head, constantly threatening his own life.

Although the major Cave Heaven Successors joining the world of streaming had created some competition, they hadn’t made a substantial impact on those three. Their status in the streaming world remained unshakable.

They were still developing, still growing, almost unaffected. As for the idea of undercutting their foundation and seizing their merit and luck, it was a complete joke at this point.

Beiming Longteng didn’t understand, with the same content and filming techniques, why those three’s livestreams attracted the audience more than the streams of Cave Heaven Successors and Disciples of the Immortal Sect?

Was it just a matter of being the first to act?

Or was it…

Meanwhile, in another secretive location, the situation was even more desperate.

“Sect Hierarch!”

“The Third Elder, he’s done for too!”

“That demoness from Joyous Union Sect, she has destroyed another one of our sub-temples.”

“If this continues, our Blood Moon Sect, I fear…”

“Damn it!”

The Blood Moon Sect Master, his face clouded with frustration, looked at his remaining subordinates: “Prepare the sacrifice; I need to communicate with the Supreme Lord, ask for His blessing, by His Divine Power, we will surely get through this crisis.”

“Yes!”

The cult followers hurriedly left, leaving the Sect Master alone, furiously smashing the handle of his chair.

When trouble strikes at the gate, disaster comes to the fish in the pond.

In just a few months, he had come to understand deeply the harm of “internal competition.”

Before, the Heretic God Sects only had to deal with the Federation’s official forces and the lower-tier disciples from the Great Cavern Heavens. Though they were disadvantaged, they could at least resist, even gaining some edge after the Red Moon event.

But with the advent and popularity of “Martial Path livestreaming,” the world changed.

Not only did the power of the Federation’s agencies grow day by day, but terrorizing beings like “Martial Frenzied Rascal” Li Xuanyuan were striking at them.

As it developed to now, even the major Great Cavern Heavens had withdrawn their low-tier disciples, sending out top-tier Cave Heaven Successors to enter the world with some dogshit livestreaming, competing with those three people.

Now that they were competing, bystanders suffered the consequences.

Just when they were gaining strength from the Red Moon’s return, the Heretic God Sects directly became fodder for these people’s livestreams, getting harried day and night, like rats on the street, everyone shouting to beat them, everyone shouting to kill them.

Life was becoming unbearable! @@novelbin@@

What should they do?

The Blood Moon Sect Master didn’t know either, he could only hope against hope, using his last resort and making a last-ditch effort.

The great Blood Moon Lord must have the ability to help them through this crisis… right?
