Cultivation: I Have a Skill Level Panel

His body began to tremble uncontrollably.

The colossal demonic claw, condensed by that eerie, mountain-sized face that blotted out the sky, was simply too tyrannical!

Even his ever-victorious Desolate Heaven-Imprisoning Palm had been mercilessly shattered by it!

As expected of a Great Demon Fiend on the verge of stepping into the Tongxuan Realm!

The gap in their Cultivation was ultimately too vast.

"Junior Brother, go!"

In an instant, Gu Yun reacted.

He stomped his foot down hard, unleashing the full power of his Three Thousand Roaming Dragon Steps, which he had cultivated to an Extraordinary and Unworldly level.

His figure moved like a startled dragon as he grabbed the still-dazed Li Xingyue with one hand.

Then, like a bolt of lightning, he tore through the layers of space, crossing dozens of kilometers in a flash!

He escaped the reach of the colossal demonic claw!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!!

As the terrifying, colossal demonic claw ripped through the void and descended,

most of Chong’an City was instantly obliterated.

The claw tore five enormous, abyss-like chasms into the ground, a horrifying sight!

From a distance,

the entirety of Chong’an City was nothing but rubble and ruins!

The dark clouds were like millions of black-armored cavalry, a suffocating, oppressive mass.

They seemed ready to collapse, filling people with fear and unease.

Boundless Demon Qi filled the sky, suffusing the shattered ruins.

A dim world, overwhelming Demonic Qi, and shattered ruins—it was as if the apocalypse had arrived!

...

Enveloped in a misty glow and imbued with the Heaven and Earth Dao Rhythm, Jiang Qingfeng, a figure like a blazing sun exuding an utterly terrifying aura, crossed the Cang Mang Mountain Range.

He descended upon the territory of the Great Yan Dynasty.

Below, countless mortals and Cultivators suddenly felt as if a blazing sun had descended from the heavens.

Jiang Qingfeng’s boundless aura seemed to suppress the very world itself.

The Low Tier Cultivators beneath the sky instantly felt suffocated, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

"How terrifying!"

"What in the world is that?!"

A few Low Tier Cultivators forced their eyes open, fearlessly gazing at the sky toward Jiang Qingfeng, who radiated an aura like a blazing sun.

"AHHH!!"

Their eyes were instantly seared.

Jiang Qingfeng stepped upon the void, creating layers of ripples as if on water.

Then, with a flicker, his figure instantly crossed several thousand kilometers.

Consumed by a towering rage, he headed straight for Chong’an City!

’He must!’

’He absolutely must!!’

’Kill that bastard with my own hands!!’

「At that moment, in the Imperial Palace of Shangjing City, capital of the Great Yan Dynasty.」

Within an elegant pavilion filled with incredibly dense Spiritual Qi, an Array converged amidst swirling fluorescent light.

Here, a wizened old man sitting cross-legged on a cushion, his body wreathed in the Dao Rhythm of scorching flames and exuding a terrifying aura, opened his star-like eyes!

This man was the Grand Ancestor of the Great Yan Dynasty, Chu Yin!

The Great Yan Dynasty’s sole Tongxuan Realm expert.

He was entirely devoted to the Dao, having stood guard over the Great Yan Dynasty for several hundred years—the pillar that held up the sky for Great Yan!

"Which expert has come to my Great Yan?"

Chu Yin, still seated on his cushion, murmured with a hint of confusion.

The next instant,

his figure vanished.

...

「Chong’an City.」

The clouds were dark and oppressive.

Demon Qi filled the entire sky.

The land had collapsed, leaving shattered ruins.

At the edge of Chong’an City,

two figures stood before a demolished house, their robes torn and tattered, their bodies streaming with blood.

It was Gu Yun and Li Xingyue. Even with Gu Yun’s lightning-fast speed, and despite evading the direct attack of the colossal demonic claw, they couldn’t avoid the impact of the aftershock!

Fortunately,

they could still move.

"Junior Brother, this time..."

"...I’m afraid we’re done for!"

Gu Yun spoke as he looked up at the mountain-sized figure with dark-red eyes that blotted out the entire sky, emanating an aura of ultimate terror.

"Hahaha, it’s just death. What’s there to be afraid of?"

Li Xingyue laughed heartily.

Hearing this,

Gu Yun chuckled lightly.

"You’re right. It’s just death."

Then, Gu Yun added in a grave voice, "But before we die, we must still fight with all our might. Only then can we grasp that sliver of hope for survival. Otherwise, I’m afraid I won’t be able to rest in peace!"

The eerie, giant face in the sky gazed down at the two men below with its dark-red eyes.

A hint of surprise touched it, and it let out a deep, hoarse sound. "Eh!"

The aura of the one with the extremely fast movements, the one who had unleashed the giant golden palm... it felt strangely familiar, as if it had encountered him before. After a moment, it realized.

"It’s you!!"

It finally remembered. Many years ago, in the Chaotic Star Sea, while it was invading an island town, it had encountered a young brat.

Back then, he was merely at the True Martial Realm First Layer.

Yet now, he could actually contend with it, even if only for a moment!

’How Heaven-Defying!’

’Another prodigy of the Human Race!!’

’However, today, while I’m here for the Blood Stele, I can just as easily erase him.’

’Otherwise, in a few years, I fear he’ll become another top-tier expert of the Human Race.’

’By then, he would pose a threat to the grand plans of the Demon Race!’

At this thought,

"Die!!!"

The mountain-sized face, its huge, dark-red eyes flashing with terrifying malice, erupted with an extremely dreadful Demon Qi.

It condensed several terrifying, deep-crimson spheres of blood, each dozens of kilometers wide.

Under the terrifying aura, the void twisted violently before instantly collapsing and shattering!

Gu Yun looked up at the sky. The giant spheres, glowing with a deep-crimson light, overflowed with an utterly terrifying might.

It was as if several Celestial Meteorites, dozens of kilometers wide, were about to crash down and destroy everything!

At this moment, Gu Yun’s robes were torn and blood streamed from his wounds. A corner of his clothes fluttered without any wind.

His long hair whipped about wildly, and arcs of thunder flickered in his deep, dark eyes. He was preparing to risk it all!

Suddenly,

the entire world fell silent,

as if welcoming an unimaginably powerful expert!

"Chong’an City, I have finally arrived!"

The invisible Array over Chong’an City suddenly shattered. A tall man with a dignified, square face, clad in a magnificent black Profound Robe and radiating a terrifying aura, abruptly appeared in the sky above the city. He was wreathed in misty light and filled with Heaven and Earth Dao Rhythm.

Vaguely,

a terrifying Dao Rhythm emanated from him.

The surrounding space instantly shattered like glass.

The mere leakage of his aura caused the entire world to tremble!

Jiang Qingfeng stood in the sky with his hands behind his back.

His Spiritual Sense instantly covered a fifty-kilometer radius.

Below him was nothing but a wasteland of rubble and ruins.

He quickly locked onto the figure of the person who had killed his son.

’He absolutely cannot escape!’

’He must die!!’

What surprised him was,

there was actually a Demon Fiend here on the verge of stepping into the Realm of Tongxuan.

"Interesting!!"

A voice imbued with Dao Rhythm suddenly echoed through the world, instantly reaching the ears of the Demon Fiend below, as well as Gu Yun and Li Xingyue!

At this very moment,

"A Tongxuan True Monarch!!!"

The eerie, mountain-sized Demon Fiend face floating above Chong’an City trembled violently.

Its dark-red eyes looked as if they had witnessed the impossible.

’This... How is this possible?!’

’Why would a True Monarch appear here?!’

’That old fogey Chu Yin never meddles in the Dynasty’s affairs, so why would he come here?!’

’No!! It’s not Chu Yin!!’

’Who in the world is he?!!’

The eerie-faced Demon Fiend reeled in silent horror, as if it had seen an unbelievable figure!

"Hmm?!"

"What’s that?!"

Suddenly, Jiang Qingfeng, who was standing high in the sky, felt something and his gaze abruptly shifted toward the Blood Stele in the city center.

"The Primordial Blood Stele! So that’s what this is about!"

A flicker of greed crossed Jiang Qingfeng’s eyes.

’To think it’s an exceptionally rare worldly treasure like the Primordial Blood Stele.’

’To think I would find such a treasure upon coming here... I, Jiang Qingfeng, am truly a man of great fortune!’

’However, before I kill that brat, I don’t mind casually eliminating this Demon Fiend.’

"You have crossed the line. You deserve to be annihilated!!"

As Jiang Qingfeng’s chilling voice echoed through the world,

a deep, fifty-kilometer-wide vortex suddenly tore open in the sky.

A pillar of light, imbued with Heaven and Earth Dao Rhythm, surged out from the vortex.

A supremely terrifying power radiated from it, and the void collapsed!

The next instant,

the Heaven-Reaching pillar of light shattered the sky.

It pierced through the entire world, hurtling down to annihilate the Great Demon Fiend with overwhelming force!

"NO!!!"

The enormous, mountain-like, eerie face above Chong’an City let out a great, unwilling roar.

It sensed an irresistible, majestic Divine Power—an energy of an extremely high level—coming to destroy it.

A look of terror filled its dark-red eyes!

Before it could even react,

the Heaven-Reaching pillar of light that had split the sky open instantly and effortlessly annihilated it!

A heaven-reaching fissure tore through the void, releasing an endless, terrifying astral wind that left all who witnessed it aghast.

’So-called "close to Tongxuan" means not yet there, after all. In my eyes, it was nothing more than an ant!’

At this moment,

Li Xingyue’s face was filled with utter disbelief.

His jaw dropped, and he was completely flabbergasted. ’Holy shit, that’s strong!’

Then he asked in shock:

"Senior Brother, is he here to save us?"
