Breaking Through Level 100

"When does the Alliance Leader plan to break through Level 100?"

"Of course, the sooner the better. But it still depends on when all the Sect Masters are ready."

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Zhang Xu and the others nodded. They knew Lin Yi surely wanted to break through Level 100 as soon as possible. After all, ascending to the Divine Realm would give him much more room to spread his wings.

"I have no problems here. I can help Alliance Leader Lin break through Level 100 at any time." Li Dongcheng didn't hesitate at all. He was certainly the most willing to help Lin Yi.

"Alliance Leader Lin, the Imperial Sky Sect needs a few days. To help you break through successfully, our sect's divine weapon is absolutely indispensable. I'll return to the sect and bring back the Imperial Sky Sword. With it, I can surely help you break through."

"We're ready whenever you are!"

Lin Yi nodded. He trusted these sects quite a bit. Every sect except the Imperial Sky Sect could lend their aid immediately, but he wasn't displeased with Zhang Xu. He understood how crucial the Imperial Sky Sword was to this breakthrough.

"Thank you all for your support. I'll remember this kindness. Even if I break through Level 100 and enter the Divine Realm someday, I'll never forget what you've done for me."

"Alliance Leader Lin, you jest. If anyone owes anyone a debt of gratitude, it's us who owe you. What's a little help like this?"

Lin Yi chuckled. "Since that's the case, I won't waste any more words. Sect Master Zhang, sorry for the trouble, but please return to your sect and retrieve the Imperial Sky Sword as soon as possible. The day you return will be the day you help me break through Level 100."

"No problem. I'll be back in no time."

After speaking, Zhang Xu activated his Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar, and swiftly left, heading in the direction of the Imperial Sky Sect.

As soon as three days had passed, Zhang Xu returned from his sect with the Imperial Sky Sword. Lin Yi and the other Sect Masters were already waiting in the courtyard. Not a single Soul Beast dared to enter within a hundred miles of Lin Yi's residence. Even hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts kept their distance.

"Alliance Leader, sorry for the wait."

"No matter. Sect Master Zhang, please take your seat."

Zhang Xu gave a quiet "Mm," then sat in his place with the Imperial Sky Sword in hand. Seeing that everyone had arrived, Lin Yi walked to the center of the group and sat down cross-legged.

"Everyone, this breakthrough to Level 100 is of the utmost importance to me. I hope you'll give it your all and help me succeed."

"We'll give it our all and help Alliance Leader break through Level 100!"

Hearing their response, Lin Yi nodded in relief. Before entering meditation, he asked Pei Qinhu to guard him. Although no Soul Beasts would disturb them around his residence, and no foolish troublemakers would come looking for a fight, it was still best to be cautious.

"Don't worry, Alliance Leader. I won't let even a single mosquito get in."

"Heh, thanks for your effort."

Pei Qinhu's Martial Soul Avatar hovered in midair, surveying the surroundings with his mental power to ensure no one disturbed them.

"Sect Masters, let's begin!"

As soon as Lin Yi finished speaking, he closed his eyes and entered meditation. The Soul Power all around them surged toward his body, and a vortex formed above his head from condensed Soul Power. Zhang Xu, Li Dongcheng, and the others were astonished. When had they ever witnessed such a magnificent sight?

"Don't just stand there! Sect Masters, lend a hand!"

Li Dongcheng had already noticed that the Soul Power in the air was growing thin. He understood that Lin Yi had absorbed more than half of all the Soul Power on Douluo Continent, yet there wasn't the slightest sign of a breakthrough. Even if Lin Yi absorbed all the Soul Power on the entire continent, it would still be difficult for him to reach Level 100. Now was the time for the rest of them to act.

At his words, none of the Sect Masters hesitated. They immediately released their Martial Souls. Each of them had nine Soul Rings: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black, and red. Across all of Douluo Continent, such a perfect Soul Ring Configuration could only be seen here.

"Imperial Sky Sword! Strike!"

Zhang Xu gathered all his Soul Rings onto the Imperial Sky Sword and slashed at the sky. The strike seemed to cleave open a passage between Douluo Continent and the Divine Realm. The Soul Power, which had been growing thin, suddenly became abundant again.

"Now! Don't hold back, everyone. Help Alliance Leader break through as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

At Zhang Xu's command, everyone began pouring their Soul Power into the vortex above Lin Yi's head. Though Lin Yi couldn't speak while meditating, he knew everything Zhang Xu, Li Dongcheng, and the others were doing. It was impossible for him not to be moved.

"Once I enter the Divine Realm, I'll find divine positions for all of you!"

Lin Yi made up his mind. Zhang Xu, Li Dongcheng, and the others were willing to expend their own Soul Power to help him break through. He would always remember this kindness.

Several hours passed, but Lin Yi still showed no sign of breaking through. Zhang Xu and the others, meanwhile, had already expended too much Soul Power, and their faces were beginning to pale. If Lin Yi still couldn't break through within half an hour, they would have no choice but to stop. If they continued, the Soul Power in their bodies would be drained completely. Even if they recovered, they could fall to the Soul Douluo level.

"Alliance Leader, hurry!"

Lin Yi furrowed his brow. He could feel the Soul Power in Zhang Xu and the others rapidly dwindling, and he knew that continuing would put them in danger. But he was anxious too. He was clearly only a tiny step away from Level 100, so why was it still so difficult to break through after absorbing so much Soul Power?

In the Sea God Hall of the Divine Realm, Tang San and Xiao Wu watched everything clearly. Seeing how anxious Lin Yi was, Xiao Wu said, "Brother, why don't you help him?"

"Mm, all right."

Tang San smiled faintly. A Blue Silver Grass seed slipped unnoticed into Lin Yi's Sea of Consciousness. Even Lin Yi himself didn't notice it. Just as he was about to give up, he suddenly felt his Sea of Consciousness expand several times over, and the Soul Power in his body surged instantly.

"What's going on?"

Lin Yi was puzzled. He had no idea why this was happening. Then he noticed a familiar presence in his spiritual world. Wasn't its source the God King Tang San?

"Senior?!"

"Don't thank me yet. Wait until you've broken through Level 100 and come to the Divine Realm before you do!"

Lin Yi smiled faintly. When he opened his eyes, a tremendously powerful wave of Soul Power burst from his body, nearly killing Zhang Xu and the others. If he hadn't reacted quickly and shielded them with his mental power, that blast of Soul Power would surely have taken their lives.

"Congratulations, Alliance Leader, on breaking through Level 100! Long live the Dragon God!"
