The Truth.
"Alright, let's descend," Alex muttered to himself as he threw himself headfirst, plummeting towards the ground.
BOOOOOOOOM!!!
His impact created a substantial crater upon landing, but given his current cultivation level, this minor fall barely scratched the surface of his resilience.
"I'm going to target the Elders now. They're just one level above me. After Inner Qi Realm is the Soul Awakening realm. My Qi should be sufficient to take them down," Alex declared, his focus unwavering. He retrieved the twelve bullets he had prepared earlier, knowing they could be put to better use against more formidable opponents.
"Since I'm here to farm, let's make these bullets count against stronger foes," he contemplated, determined to maximize his efforts.
As Alex ventured further into the Sect, a crucial meeting was unfolding in its depths.
"SECT MASTER! We're under attack from the sky! We're outmatched by these intruders. Please hasten the Venerable's plan!" an elder beseeched the young-looking figure with striking red hair and black eyes. The figure stood before an altar, radiating an aura of authority.
"Damn it! How could that person be so powerful that they breached our defenses in seconds!" the figure exclaimed, frustration evident.
BBBBSSSSSHHHHH!!!
A smoky essence emanated from the altar, and both the Sect Master and the elder dropped to their knees.
"I apologize for keeping you waiting," a feminine voice emerged from the smoky form that materialized. Even as a smoky silhouette, her curves were mesmerizing, captivating the attention of those who saw her.
"No... No... No... forgive our weakness, Venerable. But we stand no chance against these monsters. Please expedite the plan before we're utterly annihilated," the Sect Master implored, his frustration evident.
"I understand. Give me ten minutes," the smoky figure responded.
The Sect Master almost choked in disbelief at the timing. Ten minutes? Their survival prospects were dire, and they wouldn't likely endure half that time.
"As you command," he grudgingly acquiesced, his teeth clenched.
"Mhmm..." The smoky form looked skyward before dissipating.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
The entire room trembled, throwing the Sect Master and the elder off balance.
"FEENG!!! MEET YOUR DOOM!" An imposing voice echoed through the room, resonating with power.
"Damnit!" The Sect Master cursed, sensing the impending crisis.

Alex, meanwhile, continued to dispatch opponents with ruthless efficiency.
BOOOOOOOM!!!
BOOOOOOOOM!!!
BOOOOOM!!!

He harvested their badges, indifferent to the contribution points, as his sole focus was on maximizing his harvest.
"I got it!" Alex exclaimed, his excitement palpable. He found a massive tree in the forest, an ideal vantage point. However, realization suddenly hit him, making him slap his forehead mentally. "Wait a minute, this doesn't add up." He put his hands on his chin "There's no way such a weak sect would provoke our sect. It's likely a trap, and it's about to be sprung...probably in about five minutes." He nodded his head quick" I need to farm before that happens. I'll link up with Chang Li and make a swift exit when those five minutes are up." he didn't give a shit about what happened to his sect disciples at all right.
His anger was fueled by the sect's unjust intent to wipe out innocent lives due to a petty naming dispute. Whether demon sect or not, innocent people didn't deserve such a fate.
With determined steps, Alex reached his desired location, standing amidst the towering branches of the enormous tree. He considered his strategy. "[MOUNTAIN SHATTER FIST (10 MOUNTAINS) MAX]. [MOUNTAIN SHATTER FIST (10 MOUNTAINS) MAX]. [MOUNTAIN SHATTER FIST (10 MOUNTAINS) MAX]."
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
Alex's formidable punches reverberated, each strike equivalent to the force of ten mountains.
CRACK!
"AAGHHGHH!!!"
"HELP!"
"WHO IS THIS?!"
Panic gripped the disciples below as they witnessed their sacred peak shake and crack. The sight was unprecedented.
Unbeknownst to them, Alex was currently cultivating within the ninth mountain of his technique.

[Congratulations, You have killed Inner Qi Cultivator X24.

His display drew the attention of the elders, who couldn't help but take notice.
"DRAGONIC SLASH!"
The sound of a sword slash cut through the air, its target Alex.
CLANG!!!
"Is that all?" Alex taunted, catching the sword with his bare hands. He sported a maniacal smirk as he stared at his attacker.
It was an elder—one that seemed baffled by this Inner Disciple's unwavering composure.
"IMPOSSIBLE! DIEEE!" the elder shrieked, launching a close-quarters assault against Alex.
"Bad choice," Alex retorted.
BOOOOOOM!!! BOOOM!!! BOOOOM!!!
As they clashed, a flurry of powerful exchanges ensued, and eventually...
--
[Congratulations! You have killed Soul Awakening Realm (Infant) Cultivator.
+Soul Sword Attack Technique.]
Alex's elation was palpable. His farming venture was proving to be an unprecedented success.
"Bring it on! I'm accumulating experience points!" He unleashed his aura, which swept through the area. He executed the Aura Weaponizing Technique, annihilating any ants while taking down the elders.
"Get close to him! Surround him!" Elders shouted, frantic. How could an Inner Disciple possess such prowess?
Thirteen elders collaborated on a formation that Alex promptly detected, his awareness astute as ever. The formation pressed down on him, compressing space and matter.
Boooooom!!
The formation activated, and an invisible force began to encase Alex.
"NOW YOU HAVE NOWHERE TO ESCAPE—"
CRACK!!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
"AAGGGGYHYYY!!!" The explosion rocked the formation, sending the elders flying in all directions.
Alex emerged unscathed, standing tall amidst the dissipating dust and debris. His gaze shifted to the main peak, where the Sect Master awaited.
"It's time to find what I'm here for."
BOOOOOOOOM!!
"Damn it! Don't let him escape!"
"MOUNTAIN SLICING SWORD!"
"SPACE SHATTER PUNCH!"
"DESTROYER ASURA PUNCH!"
A barrage of attacks rained down on Alex, but his nimble agility allowed him to evade every single one. Battle instincts honed from his years as a sniper guided his movements.
BOOOOOOOOM!!
With every strike, Alex eliminated his foes, even if they were his own fellow disciples.
Finally, Alex reached the pinnacle of the main peak and squatted, poised for action.
BSSSHHHHHH!!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
He leaped into the air, propelled by his explosive aura. He soared over to the main peak—an audacious move with risky consequences.
As he enacted this reckless maneuver, everything abruptly ceased.
Array formations began to manifest in the sky, compressing space and creating an imprisoning force.
"Shit... This is bad news! I need to act fast," Alex realized in a panic.
