The giant golden palm, radiating an incomparably tyrannical aura, trembled the void. With vast divine might and an overwhelmingly powerful, invincible momentum, it surged upward like a meteor from beyond the heavens, utterly obliterating the Chen Hongwu before him!

Gu Yun’s expression was calm as he hovered high in the air, his hands clasped behind his back. His long hair danced, and his robes snapped in the wind.
Below, hundreds of bodies lay strewn about haphazardly. Still-warm blood seeped into the earth.
The surrounding trees were shattered by the aftershocks, and rubble was scattered everywhere, leaving a scene of utter devastation.
After so many battles, Gu Yun felt his True Essence Cultivation solidifying, and he could vaguely sense an impending breakthrough.
At this thought, his figure flashed. After collecting the Storage Rings and other spoils of war, he transformed into a streak of light and sped off into the distance.
...
Inside a relatively safe cave, surrounded by darkness, Gu Yun sat cross-legged.
He vigorously circulated the Nine Tribulations Thunder Gang Decision, absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power from over a thousand Spirit Stones.
He performed a Circulation, converting the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power into True Yuan and flooding it into the meridians throughout his body.
Thunder Arcs flickered around his body, emitting flashes of lightning like tiny electric snakes in the darkness.
...
「Celestial Water Basin, above the Sea River.」
A colossal palace hung suspended in the air, emitting a heavy, profound aura.
From within the grand palace, numerous powerful auras of True Yuan emanated.
"Damn it! To think the Demon Fiends would suddenly emerge in massive numbers right when our Sect is at war with the Ancient Nether Sect!"
"Do they really think our Profound Celestial Sect can’t annihilate all the Demon Fiends in the Domain and restore peace to the hundred billion people living here!"
Everyone in the hall was a Cultivator at or above the True Martial Realm Fourth Layer. A square-faced middle-aged cultivator at the True Martial Realm Seventh Layer spoke through gritted teeth.
"Senior Brother Xin, don’t be rash!"
"The mass appearance of Demon Fiends this time seems unusual. For them to emerge in such great numbers precisely when our Sect is locked in a bloody war with the Ancient Nether Sect, attacking so many of our disciples—if there’s nothing suspicious about this, I, Chu Zhuowen, will be the first to disbelieve it!" Chu Zhuowen’s calm voice called out to Xin Jiangfeng.
The vast Celestial Water Basin had now escalated into the main battlefield for the two sects’ forces below the Tongxuan Realm, a land ravaged by constant war and strife.
Where Demon Fiends were usually scarce, hundreds at the True Martial Level and tens of thousands at the Spiritual Martial Level had now suddenly emerged.
"Brothers and sisters, the most important thing right now is to devise a strategy to crush the Ancient Nether Sect!"
A voice full of authority rang out. This was one of the Profound Celestial Sect’s top combatants on the True Martial Realm battlefield in the Celestial Water Basin: Lu Menglin, a True Martial Realm Ninth Layer expert.
"Senior Brothers, Senior Sisters, according to our reconnaissance, the Ancient Nether Sect’s main base of operations here is established on the Nether River. After numerous major battles, they are showing signs of retreat. We can take this opportunity to attack the Nether River all at once and kill all their high-level combatants. The rest will be of no concern. This Celestial Water war will then be our victory!"
"Once that’s done, we can shift our focus to exterminating the Demon Fiends."
A cultivator at the True Essence Seventh Layer said to the crowd with a hint of excitement.
"Fellow brothers, this plan is feasible, but we must make extra preparations, just in case."
"Remember to be cautious. We must not underestimate the Ancient Nether Sect."
"The closer we get to victory, the more cautious we must be!"
A handsome young cultivator in a green robe, emitting an aura as deep as the abyssal sea, said in a heavy voice.
This was Murong Xiu, an expert at the True Martial Ninth Layer Peak.
...
「Celestial Water Basin, center of the Nether River.」
A colossal palace was suspended in the air. It emanated a simple, heavy, and unfathomable presence, surrounded by terrifying Arrays.
Rippling streams of light flashed with a dangerous, mirror-like gleam that was instinctively terrifying.
At this moment, contrary to expectation, the inside of the simple, somber palace was not bright.
Dim light filled the hall, making it impossible to see the situation within.
"So they’re planning to attack the Nether River all at once, are they," a low voice drifted from a shadowy figure.
"According to the latest news from the front lines, the Profound Celestial Sect over at the Sea River has already gathered numerous Dharma Ships and is itching for a fight!"
"Excellent! As long as they dare to come, we will make them pay a heavy price!" a shadowy figure said in a heavy tone, as if they shared a deep and bitter feud with the Profound Celestial Sect.
"Jyejyejye... As we agreed with your esteemed Sect beforehand, the flesh and souls of the Profound Celestial Sect all belong to us."
A red light flickered in the darkness, emitting a tyrannical, horrifying aura. A Demonic Qi powerful enough to make heaven and earth tremble began to spread.
This was, shockingly, a Demon Fiend!
...
Gu Yun, of course, was unaware of the great battle about to erupt in the Celestial Water Basin. Inside the dark cave, he was circulating the Nine Tribulations Thunder Gang Decision with all his might as Thunder Arcs flickered continuously around his body.
After absorbing all of the thousand-plus Spirit Stones, the aura around his body climbed continuously, and a powerful aura of True Yuan spread out.
「A short while later.」
BANG!
Gu Yun’s eyes snapped open. A flash of thunder streaked through his pupils and vanished, like a bolt tearing across the sky.
The flashing lightning illuminated the entire dark cave.
He unintentionally released a soul-shaking pressure that felt unbearable.
’I broke through!’
He clenched his fist, feeling the vast True Yuan within his body. A tyrannical aura radiated from him, as if he could now cleave the sky in two with a single slash.
Gu Yun couldn’t help but reveal a trace of satisfaction.
The many battles had allowed him to sense the opportunity for a breakthrough, and he had naturally seized it without hesitation.
With a thought, the Heaven Rewards Diligence skill panel appeared in his mind’s eye.

"Now that my Cultivation has successfully broken through, it’s time to leave."
After standing up in the dark cave, Gu Yun muttered to himself. His figure flashed, and he appeared high in the sky.
A glance below revealed a sea of lush, ancient trees reaching for the sky. He did not linger.
His figure transformed into a streak of lightning and shot toward the distant horizon.
