Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable

This level of Energy intensity was over a hundred times more potent than what the Cultivators on the Celestial Road had access to.

For Ye Tianling to just let her cultivate with it was practically inviting jealousy and asking for trouble.

So, after asking her question, Ye Tianyun began her Cultivation, racing against the clock.

"I don’t need it, of course. I can’t absorb any more. Even in my Harmonization Dao state, my body is already saturated."

Ye Tianling explained.

Then, he suddenly raised his head and looked into the distance.

At that moment, the strength of many Cultivators had clearly improved.

Because there were no Celestial Tribulations in this space, when their breakthroughs came naturally, some Cultivators in the Tribulation Realm advanced by one or even two full Realms. Moreover, their progress was akin to reaching the Great Perfection Level. Unsurprisingly, some people finally started to get jealous.

"Ye Tianling, what do you think you’re doing, hogging this ancient altar all to yourself? Give it up, or let us come up and cultivate together."

"That’s right, Ye Tianling. Hogging all the benefits like this is just too arrogant! Before, with the Dao Rhyme Fragments, you said not to fight over them. You earned those by killing, so we let you take them.

But this time, the aura of the world’s divine Dao Principles is an opportunity for everyone!"

"Ye Tianling, we don’t want to make things difficult for you, but we hope you know your place! You may be powerful, but you’re only in the Void Realm. The gap between that and the Tribulation Realm is huge."

"Ye Tianling, tell your sister to move. I’ve taken a fancy to that spot. If you know what’s good for you, we can all get along in the future. But if you don’t, then don’t blame me, Ji Hui, for being ruthless!"

"...

Sure enough, just as Ye Tianyun completed two transformations and a Phenomenon resembling a flaming-wing Totem began to appear, some of the Cultivators on site, having advanced one or two Realms themselves, finally grew arrogant.

This arrogance was understandable. After all, a breakthrough on the level of Great Perfection gave them the delusion of being unparalleled and invincible.

Meanwhile, ever since Ye Tianling had emerged from the Thousand Shadows Pool, it was as if he had achieved a state of Returning to the True Self. His entire aura was a unified whole, as deep as an abyss.

Unless one were an unparalleled Daoist Ancestor, it would be nearly impossible to discern Ye Tianling’s true Realm.

Furthermore, every time Ye Tianling had attacked before, he had used only a single punch, without even drawing upon the power of his Realm. This led many Cultivators to believe he was still at the Sword Void Nine Transformations Perfection Realm.

Upon hearing this, Ye Tianling calmly looked up. His gaze swept over the group, landing in particular on the Ji Family Disciple, Ji Hui.

She was a woman in a light pink gauze dress that made her look exceptionally enchanting and seductive. Her stunning face was no less beautiful than Liu Xu’Er’s—in fact, it was perhaps even a cut above.

As Ye Tianling’s gaze fell upon her, Ji Hui spoke again, her voice cold. "You’d better think this through, Ye Tianling. You’re occupying this altar, but you can’t obtain much Origin Energy from it. It’s not like us; our Realms can continuously transform, all the way to the Sword Tribulation Ninth Refining Realm. And we have already reached the Sword Tribulation Fifth Refining Realm!

The status of my Ji Family, our Divine Child, and our many other prodigies are all here—like my younger brother Ji Xian, and my clansmen Ji Yuan and Ji Nan. Every single one of them is breathtakingly talented!"

Seeing Ye Tianling’s gaze turn to her, Ji Hui immediately revealed a hint of defiance, lifting her chin slightly and speaking with a cold, proud attitude.

Especially when his gaze swept across her face, she felt incredibly smug. She was convinced that her stunning beauty had completely captivated Ye Tianling’s heart!

’In that case,’ she thought, ’this mere Ye Tianling, this ignorant little bumpkin, will probably end up just like all those other male Cultivators who are constantly fawning over me. He’ll be wrapped around my finger, to be ordered about as I please.’

As Ji Hui was lost in these thoughts, Ye Tianling spoke, his voice calm. "Many Ji Family prodigies are here? I’ll give you a chance. Call them all over. I’ll kill them all at once."

Ye Tianling’s tone was frigid. The killing intent laced in his words startled the incredibly smug Ji Hui, and her heart sank.

She was no fool. From Ye Tianling’s tone and cold attitude, she could tell he was speaking from the heart; those were not mere words of provocation.

"You—"

Ji Hui wanted to attack, but a deep sense of dread made her hesitate, unsure of how to proceed.

At that moment, several of the Male Cultivators standing beside Ji Hui could no longer stand by and watch.

"Who the hell do you think you are? You think you can kill Divine Son Ji Yun just because you feel like it?"

"The Ji Family was a titan from the Ancient Era! When a family like that existed, your ancestors hadn’t even been born! What right does a Void Realm ant like you have to talk so big?!"

"Kill them all at once? Slay Divine Son Ji Yun? Aren’t you afraid of getting beaten to death for spouting such nonsense! Even if the Divine Son of the Ji Family stood right here and let you kill him, you probably couldn’t do it! And even if you really could, do you take the Ji Family’s many Daoist Ancestors and Unparalleled Saints for decorations? You’re simply courting death!"

"Why are we even talking to this idiot? Sure, he’s powerful, but we’ve all had transformations on par with the Great Perfection Level. Let’s attack together and crush this bug!"

...

The crowd was in an uproar.

Ye Tianyun continued to cultivate rapidly, forcing herself not to be distracted, but she still began to worry for Ye Tianling’s safety and could no longer focus completely.

Ye Tianling condensed a Primordial Rune, forming a Netherworld Array that enveloped Ye Tianyun, shielding her from outside disturbances.

Thanks to this, Ye Tianyun was finally able to stabilize herself somewhat.

She was still cultivating, but now she could also spare some attention to watch Ye Tianling.

"Brother, maybe we should just move."

Ye Tianyun signaled to Ye Tianling with her eyes. She didn’t care how much progress she made in her Cultivation or how great the opportunity was; she was more worried that this would attract deadly threats and plunge her brother, Ye Tianling, into a crisis.

Ye Tianling didn’t agree. Instead, he asked, "Tianyun, was Xu’Er captured by that Ji Xian?"

Ye Tianyun was taken aback for a moment, then nodded. "Yes."

"Hm, I see."

After speaking, Ye Tianling casually thrust out his hand and grabbed at the empty air.

A great hand formed from the void, imbued with an Invincible Will, crushed down in all directions.

Ye Tianling’s sudden attack startled many of the Cultivators, but it was immediately followed by even greater fury from the crowd.

How dare Ye Tianling attack first in a situation like this?

He was simply courting death!

BZZZ—

Ye Tianling didn’t target the other Cultivators. In the void, his hand transformed into a giant demonic claw and shot directly toward Ji Hui.

"You’re courting death!"

Ji Hui roared in anger as her Bloodline Power erupted. She was just about to manifest an unparalleled Slaughter Technique to battle Ye Tianling.

But Ye Tianling’s hand suddenly shot through the air, as if it had instantly traversed both Time and Space. In the very instant Ji Hui made her move, he had already snatched her into his grasp.

SPURT—

Ji Hui immediately coughed up mouthful after mouthful of blood. Ye Tianling held her in his grasp as if she were a little chick, trapped and shackled within a terrifying, blood-red prison, completely unable to move.
