The Shock of an Innate Realm Expert!

The majestic sword light blotted out the sky, tearing through the air in its path with terrifying, piercing explosions.

A thunderous boom rolled out like rumbling thunder as the blade light swept across the mountain peak as easily as a hot knife cutting through butter.

Boom!

In the next moment, the mountaintop collapsed and shattered outright, split into two in an instant!

One Sword Breaks Peak! Such a terrifying sight was as horrifying as a natural disaster.

The summit of the vast Mountain Range split apart before Qin Yang. Rubble continuously tumbled into the valley below amid unceasing rumbles.

"Not bad, not bad. This power is no less formidable than a missile's."

Qin Yang looked at the longsword in his hand, its profound sword intent spilling forth, and could not help sighing in admiration.

No wonder that once one reached the Grandmaster Realm, humanity's modern weapons were completely incapable of dealing with them.

With the sheer power of a single sword strike alone, no matter how many missiles came flying in, they could be erased with one slash.

And if one sword was not enough...

Then two swords!

"If the Innate Realm alone can achieve this much, what kind of sight would it be upon reaching the Grandmaster Realm?"

At that thought, Qin Yang became even more eager for his future cultivation.

Once he truly grew strong, he might even be able to tear apart the Heavenly Dome and earth with ease.

This truly was a Mystical World!

Just as he was marveling at it.

Suddenly!

Several auras rushed toward him.

They were extremely fast, clearly surpassing ordinary martial artists. Did they come after hearing the commotion?

Qin Yang frowned slightly. For the moment, he had no intention of dealing with other experts.

There were far too many troublesome complications. It did not suit him!

With that in mind, Qin Yang directly used the Seven Stars Step. His figure flashed, and he vanished from where he stood.

The cold night wind swept through the valley, its howls echoing through the wilderness and forest.

With the summit no longer blocking it, the mountain wind became even more imposing.

Only seconds after he left.

Four figures swiftly arrived at Qin Yang's former location, hovering above the severed peak.

They were two middle-aged men dressed in solemn formal attire, an old man in a Zhongshan Suit holding the hand of a teenage girl.

The lingering sword intent within the mountain's fracture surged violently, transforming into vicious killing intent. They did not dare approach too closely and could only watch from afar.

The sight before them was simply too shocking. The immense sword intent surged like monstrous waves, making their hands tremble uncontrollably.

"One sword severed a mountain peak? Since when has Jianghai City produced such a Sword Dao Expert?!"

One of the scholarly-looking middle-aged men murmured, his brows tightly furrowed as he tried to maintain his composure.

"Strange. This power has already reached the Grandmaster-level... Yet I am responsible for investigating entries into Jianghai City. It is impossible that I would not know of such an expert entering the city."

The other middle-aged man narrowed his eyes as he observed the sword intent and pondered.

He wore a crisp Police Uniform, and several golden stars on his epaulets gleamed brilliantly beneath the moonlight.

"Could it be that some of those demons from the border slipped across? Hasn't that Bloodthirsty Demon been causing quite a stir lately?"

"Hard to say. An expert of this strength could cross the border with ease. If he truly wanted to hide, why would he come out and sever a mountain peak with one sword?"

The two middle-aged men discussed the matter.

After thinking carefully and finding no recollection of such a person, they turned to the old man and asked, "Old Li, your cultivation is the highest among us. Did you notice that person when you came here?"

"No. This old man was already quite fast, but the one who severed the peak left even faster. I only caught sight of his back..." The old man in the Zhongshan Suit stroked his white beard and sighed as he shook his head.

"Someone actually managed to evade your notice?!"

"How is that possible?!"

Upon hearing the old man's answer, the two middle-aged men were utterly shocked and found it hard to believe.

"Yes, that expert who severed the peak came and went in a hurry. Not only was his swordsmanship profound, but his movement technique was also extraordinary."

The old man gazed at the mountain's smooth cross-section and sighed helplessly. "I wonder whether the one who severed this peak is friend or foe. Jianghai City will not be peaceful in the future..."

Following the old man's assessment.

The scene fell silent for a time.

Insects chirped through the valley, but their hearts could not settle.

The person who had severed the peak was already gone, yet the sliced-off mountain seemed like a heavy hammer striking the tips of their hearts.

Whether the other party was friend or foe remained unknown. Nothing could be said for certain.

The girl standing beside the old man silently watched the severed peak, her heart pounding wildly.

The pressure from the sword intent that had erupted from the Mountain Range nearly left her unable to breathe. Fortunately, the old man had protected her at his side, allowing her to witness this terrifying miracle by sheer luck.

She had heard every word exchanged by the three seniors who had brought her here, and she was even more astonished.

After all.

The old man who had brought her here was the Jianghai Martial Arts Academy Dean, who had taught countless talented students!

The identities of the two middle-aged men were even more extraordinary.

One was the Star Police Department Commander, responsible for the Star Beast defense plans of all Jianghai City.

As for the more scholarly-looking one, he was the Jianghai Library Curator himself, having read countless cultivation manuals and ancient texts.

Now that all three of them found the matter troublesome, it was enough to show how terrifying the person who had severed the peak was! "Enough. There is no point in saying more here."

The Star Police Department Commander waved his hand and said, "In a little while, I'll have this place sealed off. No one will be allowed to enter."

"Wait, Commander, this old man has a small request."

Seeing this, the dean hurried forward and spoke.

"Please speak, Old Li. There is no need to stand on ceremony." The Star Police Department Commander nodded slightly.

"It is not anything troublesome. It is simply that this sword intent is extraordinary. Allowing the students of my academy to observe it would bring them considerable benefits."

The dean spoke slowly. "I hope the Commander can make an exception when the time comes."

"Rest assured, Old Li. All I need to do is give the word."

Meanwhile.

While the outside world was in an uproar.

Qin Yang, who had caused it all, had long since returned to his rented room.

Along the way, he repeatedly reviewed the details of that strike and discovered there was still plenty of room for improvement.

"Although this sword strike is immensely powerful, it also consumes quite a lot."

Qin Yang raised his hand, lightly mimicking a sword-swinging motion as he sensed the flow of true essence within his body.

Ever since he had unleashed that mountain-severing strike, he had consumed far too much true essence.

Though he could fend off a million troops with one sword.

This world was simply too dangerous, with all manner of bizarre Star Beasts emerging one after another.

Who knew if, after killing the small one, some peerless old monster hidden in the shadows would appear! Once his true essence was exhausted, he would be no different from livestock awaiting slaughter.

He had to find a way to remedy this weakness.

"Looks like it is time to cultivate a Star Power Cultivation Method."

Qin Yang's thoughts raced, and he quickly made his decision.

As far as he knew, after entering the Innate Realm, cultivators could cultivate Star Power Cultivation Methods to actively absorb the vast Star Power.

And whether one could actively draw upon Stellar Power to temper one's body.

Was the greatest difference between Innate Realm and Acquired Realm martial artists! "I remember that the first floor of the library seems to have two basic Star Power Cultivation Methods. They each have flaws that complement the other, making them perfect for creating a new cultivation method of my own."
