When Luo Feng first met Bai Kaluo, Bai Kaluo had already broken through to the eighth rank of the Universe Realm.
Spending tens of thousands of years cultivating was nothing unusual for a Universe Realm life-form.
Though Bai Kaluo had strong talent, it could hardly be called heaven-defying.
Otherwise, he would never have joined Nuolanshan's sect later on.
Nuolanshan was a Universe Realm Giant Axe Martial Artist, but he was still only at the Universe Realm. The gap between him and a Domain Lord was immense.

Within the entire Blade Clan, someone of his strength barely ranked at all.
"Again!"
Bai Kaluo roared and swung his blade, charging in for another slash.
Seeing this, Bai Yuan pushed aside his many thoughts and continued fighting Bai Kaluo.
Both of them already knew how this battle would end.
Even so, Bai Kaluo didn't retreat. Instead, he took the initiative and swung his blade, his fighting spirit surging.
All Bai Yuan could do was defeat this worthy opponent with the utmost respect.
Clang, clang...
Bai Kaluo clearly had the advantage in strength and speed.
But the gap between them in blade mastery was immense.
Bai Yuan had already comprehended Man-Blade Unity, which kept Bai Kaluo from building momentum with his blade techniques. Bai Yuan interrupted him time and again, leaving him unable to unleash their full power.
On top of that, Bai Yuan had a firmer grasp of his strength and a deeper understanding of his concept.
After dozens of fierce exchanges, Bai Kaluo finally fell beneath Bai Yuan's blade.
"Come find me for tea sometime," Bai Yuan said with a smile.
Bai Kaluo shook his head, his gaze as sharp as a blade. "No need for tea. But I'll definitely challenge you again. From today on, you're the first person I'm going to catch up to."
Bai Yuan's mouth twitched. He advised him quite sincerely, "Um... I'd recommend picking a different target."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Kaluo was teleported out of the Blade Tomb World.
Bai Yuan felt a little helpless. With the Epiphany System, his future achievements would likely be considerable. Catching up to him wouldn't be easy for Bai Kaluo.
At the same time, the Universe Realm powerhouses watching the match erupted in another wave of astonished exclamations.
"I can't believe Bai Yuan's comprehension is this high. He learned the Sharp Metal Seven-Fold Slash while still in the Apprentice Realm, and his Force Amplitude has reached 6.4 times!"
Across the entire Blade Tomb World, fewer than twenty people had a Force Amplitude of at least 6.
Most of them were between 6.0 and 6.2.
The strongest was Bai Luoyan, brought here by Bai Luoyan. Her Force Amplitude had reached 6.6 times, a truly astonishing achievement.
Below her had been Bai Nantian, whose Force Amplitude was close to 6.3.
But now, Bai Yuan had taken his place.
Though Force Amplitude didn't entirely equate to strength, it was still enough to astonish everyone.
"Old Ning, you're really not fair. You've been hiding a treasure like this without even giving us a heads-up."
At that, Bai Tianning only smiled faintly and replied calmly, "Just watch. He's capable of much more than this."
Everyone's expressions shifted.
Could it be that Bai Yuan still hadn't shown his true strength?
"If what you say is true, then we can apply for Bai Yuan to receive the complete Sharp Metal Thirty-Three Slash."
"Exactly. Bai Kuangren, who created this secret technique, didn't want unworthy people to tarnish his creation. So he left behind only the blade techniques, withholding the core Origin Energy Guidance Technique and movement technique."
"That's right. Only someone truly gifted, who earns Master Bai Kuangren's recognition, is qualified to inherit the complete Sharp Metal Thirty-Three Slash."
At the mention of Bai Kuangren, all nearly a thousand Universe Realm powerhouses looked up to him with reverence and longing.
That was because Bai Kuangren was one of the Blade Clan's top five powerhouses, with cultivation at the ninth rank of the World Lord Realm.
If he hadn't been unwilling to manage the clan's affairs, the position of Blade Clan chief would have been his and no one else's.
Clang!
A flash of blade light, and another opponent fell before Bai Yuan.
With his comprehension of the Sharp Metal Concept and Man-Blade Unity, Bai Yuan could easily defeat ordinary ninth-rank Apprentices, even when he was slightly weaker in strength.
As he moved forward, Bai Yuan's gaze suddenly stopped.
A familiar figure had also halted some distance away. The other person had clearly spotted him too.
"Bai Yuan! I can't believe you haven't been eliminated yet. Don't know whether to call you lucky or unlucky, since you've fallen right into my hands!"
Bai Kashan twisted his mouth into a sneer, slowly raising the War Blade in his hand as he approached step by step.
Bai Yuan shook his head and sighed. "Bai Kashan, is this really necessary?"
"Hmph! Easy for you to say! If I hadn't held back my strength in that fight, how could I have lost to you?"
The old humiliation made Bai Kashan grit his teeth. His eyes burned with hatred, as if he wanted to tear Bai Yuan apart and swallow him whole.
Bai Yuan shrugged helplessly. "What does that have to do with me? Our teacher told us to keep our strength at the same level."
"Besides, even with our strength matched, you'd still been cultivating two years longer than me. If you couldn't beat me, shouldn't you think about what you did wrong?"
Those words cut Bai Kashan deeply. He roared in anger, "Stop twisting things around! You won unfairly! Today, I'll wipe away the humiliation of the past!"
At that, Bai Yuan's expression grew even more solemn, and his voice dropped sharply. "Is that so? Then let me tell you: you were my defeated opponent in the past, and you'll be my defeated opponent now and in the future."
"Still not convinced? Then I'll beat you until you are!"
Boom!
He stepped forward, and his blade light poured down like a waterfall!
The Sharp Metal Nine-Fold Slash unleashed ten layers of force in a fierce burst.
At that moment, the Universe Realm powerhouses watching widened their eyes. Some even shot to their feet, their faces filled with shock.
The Intelligent Life's voice rang out through the entire space.
"Area 13: Bai Yuan, age twelve. Force Amplitude: 8.0 times. Has comprehended the Sharp Metal Concept and mastered Man-Blade Unity. Awarded the title of Special Grade Elite."
The reminder was unnecessary. Everyone could already see it for themselves.
There was no need for a reminder. Everyone present had already seen it clearly.
"The ninth form... He actually reached the ninth form! A prodigy! A true prodigy!"
"The ninth form contains ten layers of force, for a full eightfold Force Amplitude! For an Apprentice to achieve this is simply incredible!"
"Many Planet Realm Martial Artists have a lower Force Amplitude than him. With talent like this, he should have been marked for special cultivation long ago!"
At that moment, Bai Kashan alone failed to grasp how serious things were. He still sneered as he swung his War Blade, already picturing Bai Yuan kneeling and begging for mercy.
But all his fantasies shattered the instant their blades clashed.
Terrifying power erupted like a volcano, completely overwhelming Bai Kashan.
By their basic strength, Bai Yuan was around 1.4, while Bai Kashan was at 2.
But with an eightfold Force Amplitude, Bai Yuan's instantaneous explosive power reached 11.2!
Bai Kashan's Force Amplitude was only 4.2 times, giving him an explosive power of just 8.4. In terms of strength, the gap was already enormous.
As for their blade mastery and control over their strength, the difference between them was even greater.
In the face of such an overwhelming gap, Bai Yuan's blade fell without the slightest resistance.
A flash of cold light, and Bai Kashan's head flew into the air.
Until the very last moment, his eyes remained wide with disbelief and shock.
"How can he... be this strong?"
Before he could finish speaking, a flash of white light passed, and his figure vanished from the battlefield.
