Chi Yuan suppressed his turbulent emotions, bowed respectfully to the void once more, and said no more.
As the pale golden light arrived as promised, it engulfed his entire figure.
The loud rumble of thunder startled him from the daze of being teleported, causing him to instinctively look up at the sky.
The mountains are like swords, and the thunder is like a waterfall.
After a brief moment of shock came ecstasy.
"Great! That's wonderful!"
Chi Yuan stood atop a solitary peak, his moon-white robe fluttering in the thunder and wind. He stretched out his hand, his five fingers gently clenching in the air, and a tiny arc of electricity obediently wrapped around his fingertips, utterly docile.
Great Dao of Thunder.
This is one of the Dao Principles he mainly cultivates. When the Saint Venerable Haoxuan passed on the " Divine King Thunder-Controlling True Instruction " to him, he said that thunder is one of the most murderous Dao Principles among the three thousand Great Daos.
Having immersed himself in this path for many years, this Thunder World before him was less a trial and more a tailor-made arena for him.
At this moment, Chi Yuan's confidence surged again. The confidence that had been shaken off earlier returned completely, and was even stronger than before.
The previous failures are nothing; the final success is what truly matters!
As long as he gets ahead in this stage, he'll be the one to reach the Tenth Heaven in the end.
However, Chi Yuan wasn't so arrogant as to challenge this guardian spirit of the Eternal True God level; a direct confrontation would be tantamount to suicide.
"A spirit item for clearing the level."
Chi Yuan muttered to himself, he had naturally made ample preparations for coming to the Ten Directions Sacred Domain.
Confidence doesn't arise from nothing.
His confidence in becoming the first person in history to do so stemmed from his extensive efforts to gather intelligence.
To pass the level, you only need to obtain the Principle Tokens scattered throughout the world to proceed to the next level.
This realm is Thunder World, and the tokens are mostly related to the Thunder Principle.
He turned his gaze away from the depths of the clouds and looked around.
The mountains stretched endlessly, but there was no sign of anyone or any recent activity.
The person who was faster than him both times had obviously entered the First Heaven before him, but did not linger in place at all.
Have they already gone far away, or are they lying in wait in some hidden place?
Chi Yuan confirmed that there were no cultivators around, and he had already made up his mind.
They weren't members of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association, otherwise they would have definitely left a mark.
To be honest, this result secretly relieved Chi Yuan.
Deep down, he still didn't want to see any of his "subordinates" or "friends" who were more capable than him.
This is a very common psychological state: fearing that one's brothers are not doing well, yet also fearing that they are doing too well.
Ten Thousand Immortals Association who is stronger than him, he will have no face to be the leader of the society.
Fortunately, there was no situation where someone's achievements overshadowed their superiors.
This mindset was somewhat subtle, but Chi Yuan didn't feel there was anything wrong with it.
This is an instinctive pride, and it is also the driving force that has supported him all the way to where he is today.
"Alright."
Chi Yuan withdrew his gaze, and the composed smile returned to the corners of his mouth.
He flipped his hand and took out an array plate covered with runes, then gently pressed it onto the rock beneath his feet.
The array plate disappeared upon touching the ground, transforming into a faint ring of spiritual light that vanished into the earth without leaving any visible trace.
This is a specially made location marker by the Ten Thousand Immortals Association; only members who have cultivated specific Cultivation Method of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association can sense it.
He didn't know how many people from the Ten Thousand Immortals Association would pass the Divine Tree Trial. He hoped there would be more people so that they could unite and perhaps drive the others out.
Having done all this, he didn't linger any longer. He randomly chose a direction, and his figure flashed like a silver lightning bolt into the mountains covered with thunderclouds, disappearing in the blink of an eye into the depths of surging lightning.
at the same time.
In a mountain cliff, Han Xuanji slowly opened his eyes.
The medicinal power of the fifth Profound Origin Fruit had been completely refined, and the bottleneck of the ninth level of the Eternal True Lord was finally loosened after a month of continuous cleansing. As a warm current flowed through his limbs and bones, his cultivation steadily stepped into the ninth level.
He is only one step away from True Master Perfection, and with the help of the remaining two Profound Origin Fruit, this step will be completed in no time. Once his cultivation is perfected, stepping into the Eternal True God will not be difficult for him.
" The Eternal Saint Realm is just around the corner."
Han Xuanji was overjoyed and stood up, but suddenly his eyebrows twitched slightly.
A very subtle fluctuation was detected, emanating from the direction of a solitary peak in the distance.
He recognized that aura; it should be Chi Yuan.
A moment later, he saw the moon-white figure flash into the mountains like lightning, heading in the opposite direction from where he was.
Han Xuanji withdrew his gaze, showing no intention of chasing after them.
He had agreed with Jiang Hanzhou and the others to work together to get Chi Yuan out of the game, but since he was alone right now, there was no need for him to chase after him and cause trouble.
Although he wasn't afraid of a one-on-one fight, he still preferred to play it safe.
To rashly pursue them in this Thunder World would be unwise.
However, Chi Yuan lingered in the same spot for a moment, seemingly leaving something behind.
Han Xuanji moved swiftly, silently passing over several mountain peaks, and landed on the solitary peak where Chi Yuan had just stood.
His gaze swept across the ground and quickly locked onto a rock.
The stone surface was smooth and looked no different from its surroundings, but the Saint Soul Perception detected an extremely faint imprint of Principle.
The mark was extremely faint; if it weren't for him, an ordinary person would never have been able to detect it.
Han Xuanji crouched down, his fingertips gently tracing the stone surface, sensing the hidden fluctuations of the Principle beneath the mark.
This is a rather sophisticated tracking marker, which only those who have practiced specific Cultivation Method can sense.
He thought about it and decided not to erase it directly.
If the markings were simply removed, Chi Yuan would probably know that someone had tampered with them, which would only make him more wary.
Instead, we might as well tamper with this mark.
Its original function is completely reversed.
If the previous markings were meant to bring people closer together, then reversing them makes people farther apart...
Of course, the members of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association will eventually realize something is wrong and will eventually try to reunite, but any trouble they cause is trouble.
Why is the Ten Thousand Immortals Association targeting him?
If given the chance, Han Xuanji would very much like to personally expel all the members of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association one by one.
