As Xiao Yun formed mysterious hand seals and chanted mysterious scriptures, the spiritual energy in the surrounding void became completely violent, continuously converging above his head.
Such a phenomenon left everyone utterly shocked, and they all turned to look at Xiao Yun.
"What is going on? Xiao Yun is only in the Body Refining Realm—how could he cause such a huge commotion?"
"How can he absorb such terrifying spiritual energy?"
"He's forming hand seals. Could he be using some divine ability? Impossible! He's only in the Body Refining Realm and hasn't even condensed spiritual power. How could he possibly use a divine ability?"
The people around them discussed heatedly, their faces filled with confusion.
Even Uncle Fu and Lin Xiaoya, who knew Xiao Yun well, stared at him in astonishment.
When did the Young Master learn this move? Could the old master have taught it to him in secret? No, that can't be right. Even if it were some great divine ability, the Young Master's current cultivation should make it impossible for him to use it. Uncle Fu was exceedingly curious.
Lin Xiaoya's eyes gleamed brightly. She felt that her senior brother had some hidden trump card, and this time he would surely erupt and knock this bullshit Holy Son flat on his back.
Not far away, Xi Chunyu's eyes also shone as she watched Xiao Yun, her heart brimming with anticipation. Could Senior Brother Xiao truly contend against Li Bufan?
But the gap between Xiao Yun's cultivation and Li Bufan's was simply too vast.
Everyone watched with rapt attention, waiting for Xiao Yun to erupt. They all wanted to know whether he could turn the tables.
"Hmph, you're merely putting on a mysterious act. A mere ant like you, at the Body Refining Realm without even condensed spiritual power—what great divine ability could you possibly use?"
Li Bufan, floating in the sky, did not take Xiao Yun seriously at all.
He had only been briefly surprised. Then, sensing no powerful energy fluctuations from Xiao Yun, he revealed a disdainful expression.
He believed Xiao Yun was only trying to frighten him.
"A mere ant dares steal a woman from me and speak so insolently to me. Today, I'll let you know just how vast the gap between us truly is."
Li Bufan sneered. His hands remained clasped behind his back, but he raised one foot and descended from the sky, stomping down toward Xiao Yun.
Everyone's expressions changed slightly. Li Bufan was actually humiliating Xiao Yun like this.
That kick might not kill Xiao Yun, but being stepped beneath someone's foot would be unbearably humiliating. Such disgrace could never be washed away in a lifetime, leaving Xiao Yun unable to hold his head high for the rest of his days.
"Damn it!" Lin Xiaoya clenched her little fists tightly, grinding her teeth in fury.
Uncle Fu's eyes reddened as well. Standing in front of Xiao Yun, he could no longer hold himself back from making a move.
But at that moment, Xiao Yun finally completed the final hand seal. He suddenly raised his head, light blazing from his pupils as a wave of golden radiance swept out from between his hands.
"Chaos Bell, come out!!!"
With Xiao Yun's roar, the entire void shuddered. Countless rays of golden light merged with the tangible spiritual energy above Xiao Yun's head, slowly forming an ancient, simple bell.
Golden light flowed across the enormous ancient bell. Its walls were carved with countless mysterious runes, as though countless deities were chanting within it, causing the ancient bell to erupt with a terrifying aura.
The surrounding spectators cried out in alarm one after another.
Everyone was incomparably familiar with the appearance of this great bell.
Because it was the Chaos Bell.
"Dong..."
With the appearance of the Chaos Bell, a resounding toll instantly spread throughout the entire Chaos Holy Land. Countless powerful experts raised their heads in shock, then released their divine senses toward the Phantom Demon Tower.
At the same time, the massive Chaos Bell stood before Xiao Yun, blocking Li Bufan's kick.
Before the enormous Chaos Bell, Li Bufan looked as tiny as an ant.
Li Bufan's immensely powerful kick not only failed to send the Chaos Bell flying, but was instead blasted away by an even more powerful rebounding force.
"How is this possible?"
Li Bufan steadied himself in midair at a distance away. His gaze shot forth as he stared at Xiao Yun in disbelief, saying in shock, "This is not the true Chaos Bell, only a wisp of power condensed from it. But you possess a mortal body and are merely in the Body Refining Realm. How could you possibly summon the Chaos Bell's power? Even your master, Elder Taishang Di Tian, cannot do such a thing."
Li Bufan was utterly stunned. He had never expected Xiao Yun to be able to borrow a wisp of the Chaos Bell's power. How could this worthless Body Refining Realm cripple possibly accomplish that?
The people around them also revealed expressions of suspicion and shock.
Xiao Yun's summoning of the Chaos Bell had completely dumbfounded everyone.
After all, this was an Imperial weapon, something only Saints could control.
Moreover, for ordinary disciples like them, they could only see the Chaos Bell whenever the sect opened its gates to accept disciples.
Under normal circumstances, no one had any opportunity to see the Chaos Bell.
Yet now, Xiao Yun could actually borrow the Chaos Bell's power. Was he the Chaos Bell's biological son or something?
One had to know that he was only in the Body Refining Realm.
Even the ancient Great Emperors would not have been able to borrow the power of an Imperial weapon while in the Body Refining Realm.
It was like a three-year-old child launching an atomic bomb. It was simply a miracle.
"So that's how it is!"
However, there was someone who understood, and that person was Uncle Fu.
Uncle Fu looked at Xiao Yun before him, stroking his beard with one hand. At this moment, he smiled with a relaxed expression. "If I'm not mistaken, it is the Chaos Guidance.
Whenever the sect opens its gates to accept disciples, every newly recruited disciple must comprehend the Chaos Guidance in order to ring the Chaos Bell. The more one comprehends, the more times the bell will ring.
The Young Master was able to make the Chaos Bell ring nine times, which shows that he has completely comprehended the Chaos Guidance. In that case, as long as he remains within our Chaos Holy Land, the Young Master can borrow the Chaos Bell's power at any time."
At this point, Uncle Fu was no longer worried about Xiao Yun's safety in the slightest. With the ability to borrow the Chaos Bell's power, was there any need to fear being unable to crush a Cave Heaven Realm Holy Son?
One had to know that this was an Imperial weapon. Even if he could only borrow one part in a hundred million of its power, it was still tremendously terrifying.
"So it was the Chaos Guidance!"
"No wonder the hand seals Xiao Yun formed earlier looked somewhat familiar. They were the Chaos Guidance we comprehended back then."
"I never expected the Chaos Guidance to have such an ability. Unfortunately, after ringing the Chaos Bell when we first entered the sect, we never had another chance to comprehend the Chaos Guidance."
"With this divine ability, Xiao Yun is practically invincible within our Chaos Holy Land."
After hearing Uncle Fu's words, the surrounding spectators suddenly came to a realization. They immediately exclaimed in amazement again and again, their gazes toward Xiao Yun filled with envy.
Although the Chaos Bell was only within the Chaos Holy Land, meaning Xiao Yun could only borrow its power there, that was already enough to make people envious. At the very least, who would dare bully Xiao Yun within the Chaos Holy Land in the future?
Not far away, Lin Xiaoya, Xi Chunyu, and the others all breathed sighs of relief.
So Xiao Yun had such a move up his sleeve. No wonder he had remained so calm. To be able to borrow the power of an Imperial weapon—what kind of might was that?
