Ji Jing unleashed his full power, making no attempt to conceal his Spiritual Martial Realm Seventh Layer cultivation. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he spread his fingers into a palm, gathering faint golden Spiritual Power before blasting it forward to meet the incoming attack.
The faint golden Palm Seal pierced the void, smashing straight toward Lin Bei’s fist!
"BANG!"
The two techniques collided like a sudden clap of thunder out of thin air.
A crosswind swept past, and the aftershock faintly traced several tiny cracks across the hard arena floor.
The first exchange was inconclusive, and the two fighters suddenly pulled apart.
"Holy shit, Lin Bei can actually fight Ji Jing on even terms!"
"How can that be?!"
"Lin Bei only joined the Sect a few years ago, yet he’s already reached the Spiritual Martial Sixth Layer! And his combat prowess is just terrifying!!!"
"I’ve been in the Sect for nearly ten years, so why is my cultivation still so low?!"
"Why does Lin Bei get to dazzle the masses,
while I, Ah Kun, am just lost in the crowd?!"
"The Celestial Dao is so unfair!!!"
"Shh! Keep your voice down! He’ll beat you up if he hears you!"
"Ah Kun, stop shouting!"
"Oh, okay."
"My bad!"
After his outburst, the red-eyed, bald disciple was reminded by a bystander. He sheepishly rubbed his dazzlingly shiny head and broke into a goofy grin.
A crowd of Outer Sect Disciples chattered amongst themselves. Some were shocked at Lin Bei’s progress, while others were simply envious; their reactions varied.
At this moment, after they had pulled apart,
Ji Jing said with unbridled arrogance, "Lin Bei, it would be your sister’s greatest honor to become my Young Lady."
"Fuck your honor!!"
"You dare make a move on my sister?!"
"You’re fucking asking to die!!!"
Hearing this, Lin Bei erupted in fury. A glint of sword light flashed in his eyes, and with a wave of his hand, a Longsword appeared in his grasp.
With a few flicks of his wrist, he unleashed several slashes. The Sword Qi soared into the air like an ascending Flood Dragon, tearing through layers of air to envelop Ji Jing in a deadly whirlwind!
As Ji Jing felt the piercing Sword Qi whistle toward him,
his expression grew grave.
’How is this guy so strong?’
’I’m at the Spiritual Martial Seventh Layer! I’ve already entered the Spiritual Martial Realm Late Stage!’
’But he’s only at the Spiritual Martial Realm Sixth Layer, yet he can make me feel threatened. It’s truly unbelievable!!’
Even as these thoughts raced through his mind,
Ji Jing suddenly formed a hand seal.
"Golden Light Technique!"
Just as the soaring Sword Qi was about to arrive,
a light shield of condensed faint golden light materialized around him almost instantly.
"BOOM!!"
The piercing Sword Qi slammed against the faint golden Spiritual Energy Light Shield, and the impact sent a shockwave blasting outward in all directions.
But then, the piercing Sword Qi tore into the faint golden Spiritual Energy Light Shield, and cracks began to spread across its surface.
Seeing this, Ji Jing’s pupils shrank.
’How is this possible?!’
...
Gu Yun stood suspended in the sky for only a few breaths before turning into a flash of lightning and disappearing over the horizon.
’I never expected to run into him here in the Profound Celestial Sect—the same boy I casually saved years ago from a town caught in the war with the Ancient Nether Sect.’
’Perhaps it was fate,’
’or maybe it was just meant to be.’
Soon,
Gu Yun arrived at the Sect’s Profound Celestial Trial Tower. There were Inner Sect Disciples around, but not many.
Before him stood a colossal, ancient, and majestic tower, weathered by the ages.
This was the Sect’s Trial Tower, a Land of Trial that only those with a cultivation at the True Martial Realm or higher could enter.
The tower has nine layers, each one more difficult than the last.
But besides being a place to temper the Sect’s disciples,
the tower was also a terrifyingly powerful Dao Artifact!
’A Dao Artifact!!’
’This was a weapon that even figures at the True Monarch Level of the Tongxuan Realm couldn’t hope to possess, something they all desperately craved!!’
’What’s more, a Dao Artifact has its own spirit, and its power is on par with a Tongxuan Realm expert.’
’This is the true foundation of the Profound Celestial Sect!!’
’Truly worthy of their title as the overlord of the Eastern Profound Domain!!!’
As the thought crossed his mind,
Gu Yun took a step forward to enter, but a voice suddenly rang out, brazenly halting him.
"Stop right there!!"
"You’re the Gu Yun who defeated Situ Yuan?!"
"You don’t look like much!"
A loud voice boomed from behind. It was a burly man with a powerful physique, his muscles coiled like dragons, who had stopped him with a fiery gaze.
Gu Yun turned, his expression unchanging. "What matter brings you here?" he asked slowly.
"Doesn’t fucking matter!"
"I just wanted to see for myself what kind of man could defeat Situ Yuan from Flame Fire Dao Peak!"
"Now that I’ve seen you, I’ll admit you’ve got something, but not much!" the brawny man added, a corner of his mouth twitching upwards.
"Hiss!"
"That’s Xu Biao from the Gold Dao Peak!!"
"I heard his Physique is incredibly powerful, and his cultivation is at the True Martial Fifth Layer Late Stage!
He claims to be unrivaled within his realm!!"
"He’s a famous battle maniac in the Inner Sect!"
Some passing Inner Sect Disciples couldn’t help but comment.
Xu Biao raised a hand and crooked a finger at Gu Yun, the corner of his mouth curling into a smirk.
"Take one of my moves, and I’ll let you pass!"
The moment he finished speaking, with no regard for Gu Yun’s reaction, he erupted with tyrannical True Yuan.
The golden True Yuan shot up like a pillar of light, radiating a tyrannical aura. The void trembled, rippling like the surface of water.
The terrifying golden True Yuan then converged as he threw a punch that tore through the air. Its force, enough to topple mountains and drain seas, seemed to shatter space itself.
His entire body seemed to warp through space, becoming a series of afterimages as he hurtled toward Gu Yun, carrying the Momentum of Mountain-Breaking and Mountain-Suppressing!!
It didn’t matter who this guy thought he was.
But his behavior made Gu Yun’s expression turn grim.
’Since you want to die!’
’Then!!’
’I’ll grant you an instant death!!!’
As he faced the opponent’s majestic power, heavy as a mountain and capable of shattering the void,
Gu Yun remained completely unmoved. A flash of lightning sparked in his eyes, brief and bright enough to split the heavens!!
An aura as deep as an abyss suddenly erupted from him, surging into the surrounding void like a torrent, stirring up endless waves in the emptiness.
Streaks of space-rending Thunder then appeared all around him, and Gu Yun clenched his hand into a fist.
In an instant, all the ambient Thunder gathered into his fist. He then tore through space itself, his attack carrying the weight of a thousand storms, and unleashed it like a divine Thunder Punishment, blasting it straight at the charging Xu Biao!!
"BOOM!!"
The two tyrannical True Yuan attacks collided, instantly setting off a terrifying explosion. The resulting True Yuan storm swept out in all directions.
The surrounding void roiled like a raging tsunami! The terrifying aftershock sank the very ground in a hundred-zhang radius!!
Then,
in the instant Xu Biao’s fist—carrying a tyrannical might that could suppress mountains and shatter the void—collided with Gu Yun’s,
he was sent flying by Gu Yun’s terrifying Thunder Fist, a blow that tore the void and held the force of a thousand storms!!
Xu Biao’s eyes flew wide in utter disbelief!!
An almost irresistible, majestic force surged up from his fist,
before his entire body was sent flying back like a cannonball for a thousand zhang, smashing violently into the ground.
He crashed down, carving out a deep crater and sending dust and smoke billowing into the air.
Meanwhile,
the crowd fell deathly silent...
Many of the Inner Sect Disciples could only stand there, mouths agape, completely dumbfounded!!!
