Cultivation: I Have a Skill Level Panel

An incredibly powerful and sharp Sword Qi seemed to pierce the heavens, tearing through layers of space with unstoppable momentum as it slashed violently toward the oppressive Fiery Flame Fist Seal.

BOOM!

The terrifying Sword Qi that tore through the void collided with the Fiery Flame Fist Seal, instantly setting off a horrifying explosion.

The surrounding void surged and roiled like a boundless tsunami, shaking violently!

As the terrifying aftershock slammed into the plains below,

in an instant, the land for a thousand zhang in every direction seemed to buckle as if an earth dragon were turning over,

and it caved in violently, throwing up terrifying, abyss-like cracks that resembled ferocious, raging dragons!!

As the Fiery Flame Fist Seal and the incomparably sharp Sword Qi collided in the void and began to annihilate one another,

Hong Zhenyang moved.

His figure was unbelievably fast, crossing a distance of a thousand zhang in a mere instant.

His afterimage was like a furious dragon soaring into the Nine Heavens. Blazing flames rolled off his body, scorching the sky.

The thousand-zhang area suddenly heated up under these terrifying flames, becoming like a worldly crucible!

Hong Zhenyang’s figure was like an incredibly swift crimson thunderbolt, creating a deafening sonic boom as he tore through space.

It was as if the air itself had been blasted open, forming a long channel of fiery crimson thunder that surged toward Gu Yun with boundless, blazing power!!

A fist shot out!

Shattering the void!!

Like a blazing sun blooming in the void,

it radiated an endless, blinding light. With the power of a boundless sun, it rolled toward Gu Yun, threatening to burn him to ashes!!!

Gu Yun faced this terrifying fist head-on.

No one could understand the oppressive feeling better than he!

It was like a sun,

bearing down on you,

truly and utterly terrifying!!

Gu Yun wanted to evade,

but he felt inexplicably locked in place by an infinite, fiery aura, making escape impossible!

’If I can’t dodge!’

’Then!!’

’Then let’s fight!!!’

In almost an instant, Gu Yun decided to go all out.

BUZZ! BUZZ!!

The Flame Soul Thunder Saber in his hand seemed to let out a clear ringing sound that echoed through the heavens and the earth!

"Eight Desolates Star Slash!!"

He slashed out.

A Sword Qi, emanating an ancient aura and resembling a star from beyond the heavens, suddenly tore across the sky.

Imbued with the ultimate Flame Thunder Blade Momentum, the star-like Sword Qi carried with it an incredibly sharp might.

The next instant, the vast Starlight Blade slashed violently toward the onrushing Hong Zhenyang!

"BOOM!!"

The Starlight Blade suddenly collided with the sun-like Fist Seal!!

A world-shaking explosion erupted once again.

The surrounding void shattered like broken glass, and pitch-black spatial rifts vaguely spread out, a horrifying sight to behold!

A powerful shockwave swept through every corner of the surrounding world!

The next instant, Hong Zhenyang—like a Fire God—threw a punch as terrifying as the sun. After it clashed for a moment with the incomparably sharp Sword Qi,

he once again incinerated Gu Yun’s Starlight Blade!

Then, with unstoppable momentum, the attack scorched through the void and slammed into Gu Yun’s chest!!

Gu Yun instantly felt as if a sun had crashed into his chest. Even with his Thunder Gang Body, which he had cultivated to Perfection,

he couldn’t withstand it. An overwhelming force sent Gu Yun flying like a cannonball for several thousand zhang,

crashing hard into the ground amidst a sudden cloud of dust and smoke!!

...

「Meanwhile, outside the Profound Celestial Trial Tower.」

The area was in a constant uproar.

After Gu Yun defeated Song Fuchuan from the Profound Celestial List,

Gu Yun’s name had spread like wildfire throughout the entire Profound Celestial Sect.

Whether they had heard of Gu Yun before or not, everyone in the Profound Celestial Sect now knew of his existence!

Within the distant Spirit Sword Dao Peak,

a disciple with flowing long hair, sword-like brows, and star-bright eyes, dressed in white robes, suddenly opened his eyes atop a high mountain. A sword-light seemed to flicker within his gaze.

With a wave of his hand, a message from a good friend appeared on the glowing Communication Talisman.

It made his pupils shrink, an expression of unconcealed shock spreading across his face.

"Senior Brother Gu... he... he actually made the list!!?"

This person was Li Xingyue of the Spirit Sword Dao Peak.

If the message hadn’t come from a close friend of his, he would have found it hard to believe it was real.

’How long has it been since he joined the Inner Sect?’

’Five or six years, I think?!’

Since parting with Gu Yun last time, he had been cultivating diligently on the Spirit Sword Dao Peak, where the Spiritual Qi was dense.

Even so, he had only just reached the True Martial Realm Second Layer Peak.

Compared to others who started at the same time, he considered his own progress to be quite fast.

But his good brother, Gu Yun, had already defeated someone on the Profound Celestial List.

You have to understand, that was the Profound Celestial List!

An existence that was unattainable for the vast majority of Inner Sect Disciples!!

Even for those ranked at the very bottom,

their strength was at the True Martial Realm Eighth Layer!

In other words,

’Gu Yun has the combat power of the True Martial Realm Eighth Layer?!!’

"Holy shit, that’s Heaven-Defying!!"

Thinking of this, Li Xingyue couldn’t help but curse out loud.

Involuntarily,

another of his good brothers came to mind: Xiao Chen.

’That guy,’

’could he be just as Heaven-Defying?’

He then shook his head.

’Impossible.’

’I realized how monstrously talented Brother Gu was back when he broke through to the True Martial Realm. I knew he was Heaven-Defying.’

’It’s like he has no bottlenecks, just shooting up through the ranks. And his combat power is incredible. He’s without a doubt a monstrous genius!’

’A genius like that is exceptionally rare,’

’so that guy Xiao Chen should be ordinary, just like me.’

’He can’t possibly be Heaven-Defying!’

At this thought, Li Xingyue stepped into the void. With a wave of his hand, he condensed a silver sword shadow.

Then, using Sword Flight, he shot toward the Profound Celestial Tower like a meteor from outer space!

「On the other side, Flame Fire Dao Peak.」

In a place filled with raging flames, where surrounding lava flowed like a surging ocean,

the air in the void was scorching hot.

A young Cultivator in black robes with a resolute face floated in the void. His eyes, which contained a fiery glint like the blazing sun, slowly opened.

This person was none other than Xiao Chen. He was heard muttering to himself,

"I never thought Brother Gu would already be on the Profound Celestial List!"

"As expected of Brother Gu!"

"Master, do you think I have a chance to surpass him?"

Of course.

That fellow is indeed a genius. He has a sliver of a chance to become a truly powerful expert.

Although the guy you mentioned is a genius,

I have found that Ye Xuantian to be even more unfathomable!

However, with my help, looking at the entire Celestial Essence Continent, or even the starry sky beyond the Domain,

Little Dust... you are second to none!

Elder Yan’s ancient and resonant voice, filled with powerful confidence, rang in Xiao Chen’s mind.

As an ancient and mighty expert, he naturally had the right to be so confident.

"The strength of a True Martial Realm Eighth Layer..."

"Soon!"

An incredibly determined light flickered in Xiao Chen’s eyes as he clenched his fists.

An extremely majestic power surged forth from him, causing the surrounding void to tremble.

A look at his Cultivation revealed that he was actually at the True Martial Sixth Layer!!
