30 A shocking discovery

Ben Li's face right now almost looked feminine. Fair luscious skin, high cheek bones, crystal like silver-black eyes, petite nose and lips, a lively youthful complexion and free-flowing curly long purple hair. If he didn't know he was looking at himself in the mirror then he would have mistakenly thought he was looking at a girl.

This wasn't the face of Wang Xie, whom had a cruelly dashing visage with his rigid structures to further complement it but the face that was so unfamiliar to him. Yet, it belonged to him somehow.

The attire he was wearing right now wasn't the baggy sleeves and loose robes of the black sacredness of the Helios Dragon but instead, he was wearing an aristocrat's traditional, tight-fitting attire that exuded the lavish air of a noble's pride. Such an attire appeared too tight to perform martial arts but was actually much flexible or even more than that as he can conduct many kinds of martial movements without restrictions at all.

As for the aura he was exhaling, it was a powerfully sharp aura of a Sword Cultivator. Capable of slashing away the blemishes of his surroundings with its unprecedentedly trenchant Sword aura. Not to mention, this was no trenchant aura a Gate Practitioner can even exude. In fact, it was much, much stronger than what Ben Li had ever possessed. Yet, he was faintly familiar with this kind of aura.

The kind of aura those vulnerable masters of the Helios Dragon sect all exuded.

Yes, that's right! This aura is indeed the breathing of a Power Core realm Cultivator!

The realm that was above Foundation Formation Realm!

Suppressing the exhilarating sensations of a powerful expert that was making him agitated, he calmed his senses down after 1 breath and analyzed himself further.

He also realized that something really tight on his chest was hindering much of his breathing patterns. Making him heave for air.

Untying the ribbons of his polo jacket, he undressed himself halfway and saw that a sash was tightly worn to wrap up his chest.

Bewildered why he was wearing such a sash so tight, he searched in his new-found memories he obtained from that splitting headache a moment ago and found out that he, or the person before he is right now, was the one who wore it. And the reason why shocked him.

Stupefied from disbelief, he hurriedly touched his crotch to check if his worst premonition came true...

Grasslands...

Nothing but the flat grassy lands of green...

'AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!' Ben Li panicked helplessly.

Due to his panic, the sword aura his body was exuding lost control and rampaged around his surroundings. Slashing up the walls with deep gashes and broke the mirror before him into bits. But he wasn't concerned about the collateral damage because... Because of what he has actually discovered about himself...

"Oi, is someone inside?! Are you okay? We heard some noises!" suddenly, someone banged the door of the restroom and gave Ben Li a heart attack.

Under his panic, he subconsciously responded. "No, everything's fine! Wha?!"

What's up with this voice?! It's too high-pitched!

"Huh? That voice?" the person from the other side sounded as if he was suspicious of something.

Hearing that, Ben Li panicked even more and immediately shouted with a deep voice. "What voice?! There's no voice, you hear me?!"

"But, I heard..."

"You heard nothing, you imbecile!"

"..."

After shouting that, the person from the other side went silent. Only after the peaceful tranquility returned in the restroom did Ben Li heaved a sigh of relief.

He began to breath in a unique pattern and the rampaging sword aura was once again under his control. Then he stood up again after grabbing a large piece of the shattered mirror.

He used that mirror piece to look at himself again. He saw that he was sweating trepidation. And it was a normal reaction since he had come to discover such astounding news.

Who would have thought that a time would come for a Transmigrator like myself to have...

No no no no. This can't be real, right?

Still in disbelief, he used his hand and touched his crotch...

And to his discovery, flat grassy lands filled with luscious grass leaves of green appeared in his mind. The grasslands expand over the horizon and nothing resembling a rigid tree truck no matter how many times he looked around.

"Ahh..." Ben Li softly screamed in despair. And despair began to take hold of him as it shook his sanity to dust. He held his head and curled his body into a ball. Despair was riddled all over his face and his body trembled all over.

Eventually, he managed to calm down after a while and stood up. He tilted his head down and saw the his body and the feeling of incompatibility drowning his sense of self.

He heaved a deep sigh and shook his head left and right. He began to tie back his attire and fixed himself. All the while using the exhilarating aura to clean himself off from his sweat.

Ignoring the damaged that he had caused, he opened the door of the restroom and quietly left.

He stopped and stood just outside the door and looked around. Then he saw a guard wearing a dashing silver armor looking back at him with a questioning gaze.

"Are you the one who knocked the door?" said Ben Li with deep cold voice.

"Yes, it was me." responded the guard. "What was that just now, sir? I heard some noises inside the restroom."

Checking the guard's cultivation level, Ben Li realized he was a Foundation Formation Pinnacle Stage Cultivator. And the silver armor he was wearing was actually Spirit-tier equipment. And there were other things worth noting about this guard but other than that, he was no threat to Ben Li whatsoever.

"Come here." Ben Li gestured the guard to come closer. And oblivious to his intentions, the guard arrived near him and said. "what is it?"

Ben Li didn't say anything and a sharp glint of killing intent gleamed in his eyes. Faster than a split-second, his hand formed into a hard fist and swung it towards the guard.

Bang!

"Gu-ugh?" the guard didn't have time to react as Ben Li's fist sunk in deep into his chest, bending the silver armor and smashing thorax.

The silver armor the guard was wearing instantly detected a damaging fist attack and instantly activated its powers as a Spirit-tier equipment. Triggering its damage regulation systems and healing factors while enhancing the defenses and concentrated it around his chest in order to negate the damage of Ben Li's wicked fist attack.

But even with the protection of a Spirit-tier equipment, the silver armor couldn't withstand the crushing fist pressure of Ben Li's fist as it crushes the defenses into bits and made its way into the guard's body. Rupturing his internal organs.

The guard couldn't endure the pain and his strength weakened severely. Forcing him to drop on his knees and vomit rainbow colored blood that rose up from his throat.

He tried to endure the repercussions but Ben Li's fist attack was so strong that it could even crush the defensive systems of his silver armor with ease. So, his body didn't stop vomiting for a while until he had nothing left to vomit. He convulsed on the spot and tried to summon the strength he lost.

Ben Li's fist contained no profound technique nor any Qi enhancing his physical attributes. His fist just contained the raw strength of a Power Core's physical body and it was more than enough to subdue a Foundation Formation Pinnacle Stage Cultivator with his Spirit-tier equipment with ease.

The guard's consciousness was fading. But before he could black out, he looked up with a questioning gaze and saw the dark, menacing countenance the sir before him was making and couldn't help put shudder.

"Sir... Why?!" the guard asked in grief.

"Why?" said Ben Li with a deep icy cold voice. "It's because you gave me a heart attack. That's why."

"Wha..." Before confusion could struck him, consciousness left him and blacked out. Falling to the floor with a thud.

Ben Li snorted condescendingly and left the guard to his plight. As he walked away, he was secretly amazed of the current strength he wielded as a Power Core Cultivator. And thought of the many benefits it had when cultivating in this realm.

But the downside for him was just...

"What's going on here?!" suddenly, a voice echoed throughout the large hallways together with a powerful Spiritual Awareness sweeping out. Then, 5 guards wearing the same silver armor suddenly flickered before Ben Li in an instant while a guard much different from the rest had warped in a moment's notice using teleportation and all of them looked at Ben Li and the guard who had blacked out from his punch.

Ben Li looked at the six guards before and noticed that 5 of them were actually Power Core cultivators and the one guard taking the lead was actually a Quasi-Holy Saint!
