Jun Zhangjian's record of five million jin had stood on the Mount Tai Ancient Stele for a long time.
That was not to say he was the strongest among the Jun Family's younger generation.
Many of the other sequences were training elsewhere or in secluded cultivation, and had never tested their physical strength on the Mount Tai Ancient Stele.
At this moment, seeing Jun Xiaoyao about to make his move, every gaze in the arena converged on him.
After all, Jun Xiaoyao had been born with a golden spoon in his mouth and named a Divine Child from the moment of his birth.
Every movement he made drew attention from all sides.
If Jun Xiaoyao performed poorly, no one would dare mock him openly, but they would undoubtedly harbor some criticism in their hearts.
Jun Zhantian, hidden within the void, was also unusually nervous.
Whether Jun Xiaoyao could establish his prestige in the Jun Family for the first time depended on this performance.
Jun Xiaoyao himself had not thought that much about it. He simply wanted to test his strength after breaking through.
He clenched his five fingers into a fist, simple and unadorned, without the slightest flourish.
Jun Xiaoyao felt as if a thousand giant elephants were surging within him, terrifying power flowing through his tendons and muscles before gathering at his fist.
Boom!
Jun Xiaoyao's fist slammed into the Mount Tai Ancient Stele. The phantom of that golden divine elephant behind him seemed to strike alongside him.
In an instant, the entire ancient stele boomed and shook violently!
A dazzling number appeared upon the Mount Tai Ancient Stele.
Ten million jin!
Hiss...
Every Jun Family disciple stared in utter horror, rubbing their eyes desperately, unable to believe what they saw!
At only three years old, he possessed ten million jin of immense strength!
Had they not seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed it!
Lan Qingya's lovely eyes widened, and even her delicate body trembled. Her soul had been profoundly shaken!
Though she was unwilling to admit it, the Mount Tai Ancient Stele had never made a mistake!
Jun Linglong's beautiful eyes also trembled, further confirming the speculation in her heart.
Even Jun Zhantian, hidden in the shadows, was left staring blankly, his old face looking somewhat comical.
Yet the matter was not over!
Cracks spread from Jun Xiaoyao's fist like a spiderweb, extending in every direction.
"This..."
Even Jun Xiaoyao froze for a moment.
He swore that he absolutely had not intended to damage public property.
Crack!
Under everyone's dumbfounded gazes, the Mount Tai Ancient Stele shattered inch by inch before finally exploding into countless fragments.
As it crumbled, a voice that seemed to come from ancient times resounded throughout the entire Jun Family!
"Creating the eternal extreme once more. Bestowing a reward from the Heavenly Dao!"
The voice descended from the void, incomparably grand, as though a Great Emperor were murmuring softly.
Yet the words it spoke sent all ten directions into shock!
The eternal extreme!
What did that represent?
It represented that throughout countless eras since ancient times, at Jun Xiaoyao's age, no one had possessed stronger physical strength than him.
Even ancient Great Emperors, ancient imperial sovereigns, and supreme beings had been inferior to Jun Xiaoyao in physical strength when they were three years old!
This was absolutely a terrifying record beyond compare!
Compared to it, Jun Zhangjian's record of five million jin seemed utterly shabby.
"Lord Divine Child has broken the eternal extreme!" Jun Linglong's beautiful eyes blazed brilliantly with a flash of splendor.
If she had merely harbored suspicions before, she now had fifty percent certainty!
Jun Xiaoyao might be that invincible existence from that fragment of the future, standing with his back to all living beings!
Lan Qingya's face had turned pale. This record was simply too terrifying; she could not even begin to imagine it.
Remembering how she had previously guessed Jun Xiaoyao possessed only a hundred thousand jin of strength, Lan Qingya felt rather embarrassed, her face flushing red.
"Haha, grandson, you're incredible!"
Jun Zhantian could not help revealing himself from the void. His face glowed red, and he grinned so broadly that he could not close his mouth.
Jun Xiaoyao's mouth twitched. Why did that sound like an insult?
Seeing Jun Zhantian appear, the other Jun Family disciples hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings, Elder!"
"Grandfather, the Mount Tai Ancient Stele shattered..." Jun Xiaoyao said speechlessly.
"It's fine. So what if it shattered? You've brought another enormous surprise to our Jun Family!" Jun Zhantian said, overjoyed.
Compared to the eternal record Jun Xiaoyao had created, what did one shattered Mount Tai Ancient Stele matter?
At this moment, a mass of chaotic radiance emerged from the void and finally descended into Jun Xiaoyao's hand.
This was the reward for breaking the eternal extreme.
Jun Xiaoyao looked closely and discovered that it was a jade slip.
Sending a strand of divine sense into it, Jun Xiaoyao discovered in astonishment that the jade slip recorded a supreme soul-refining method.
Chaos Divine Mill Visualization Method!
"Interesting. Is this meant to make both my body and soul invincible?"
Jun Xiaoyao smiled to himself.
His physical body had already broken through the extreme, unparalleled since ancient times. With this supreme soul-refining method, once both his body and soul reached perfection, who could stand against him?
Thinking this, Jun Xiaoyao put away the jade slip, deciding to study it carefully another day.
At that moment, a streak of light flew in from the distance. It belonged to a highly ranked elder of the Jun Family, who declared in a booming voice.
"The Eighteenth Ancestor has sensed that the eternal extreme has been broken. He bestows upon Divine Child Jun Xiaoyao three stalks of immortal divine medicine!"
The elder's words once again stirred an uproar in every direction.
A group of Jun Family disciples turned red with jealousy!
Immortal divine medicine was an exceedingly precious treasure.
Generally speaking, even first-rate factions within the Immortal Domain might possess only one or two stalks of immortal divine medicine.
Though the Jun Family was an ancient aristocratic family with deep foundations, it did not possess many stalks of immortal divine medicine either.
To bestow three stalks of immortal divine medicine at once—such a thing had never happened in the Jun Family before!
But when they thought of Jun Xiaoyao breaking the eternal record, this reward seemed only natural.
Lan Qingya was so shocked that she had become somewhat numb.
She still vividly remembered how Jun Zhangjian had once been fortunate enough to obtain a stalk of immortal divine medicine. He had practically worshipped it as an ancestor and had been reluctant to use it.
Yet Jun Xiaoyao had received three stalks at once. The contrast was simply too enormous.
"Please convey my thanks to the Eighteenth Ancestor for his reward," Jun Xiaoyao said calmly, neither arrogant nor impatient.
He was also preparing to return to the Heavenly Emperor Palace for secluded cultivation and consolidate the gains from this time.
Jun Linglong hesitated slightly. Biting her rosy lip, she ultimately stepped forward with lotus-like steps and said nervously, "Divine Child, please wait."
"Hm?" Jun Xiaoyao turned his head and saw Jun Linglong.
She wore palace robes that wrapped around her budding, exquisite figure.
Her golden, slightly curled long hair was crystal-clear and dazzling, making her flawless jade-like face appear even fairer and more delicate. Her temperament was peerless.
"You are?" Jun Xiaoyao asked in puzzlement.
"This humble girl is Jun Linglong. Greetings, Divine Child Xiaoyao," Jun Linglong said, appearing slightly constrained.
She had always been calm and composed, with a noble and elegant bearing.
But facing Jun Xiaoyao now, Jun Linglong felt ordinary to her very bones, unable to summon even a trace of pride.
"Is there something you need?" Jun Xiaoyao asked blandly.
The golden-haired girl was indeed pleasing to the eye, but Jun Xiaoyao was not the type to forget how to walk at the sight of a woman.
Therefore, Jun Xiaoyao's attitude remained rather indifferent.
For the first time, Jun Linglong felt somewhat uneasy. After bowing to Jun Xiaoyao, she parted her lips and spoke.
"Linglong hopes to become the Divine Child's follower!"
As soon as those words fell, the entire Martial Arena fell deathly silent.
Many male Jun Family disciples turned pale, their hearts shattering across the ground.
In their eyes, the lofty Lady Linglong, whom they could only admire from afar and never profane, was now lowering herself in a bow and voluntarily asking to become another person's follower.
The feeling was as though the goddess in their hearts had voluntarily asked to become someone else's plaything.
