boom!
At the center of the Supreme Qian Dao Arena, boundless Spiritual Qi converges like rivers flowing into the sea, Han Xuanji.
Of course, even Han Xuanji couldn't possibly absorb all the Spiritual Qi of the Supreme Qian Dao Arena, after all, it was Saint King's Dojo.
Although it seemed to make a lot of noise, it actually had almost no impact on the Supreme Qian Dao Arena.
What's even more striking is the unusual phenomenon that rises along with the absorption of Spiritual Qi.
First, the Yin and Yang energies surged from his body, intertwining in black and white, and condensed into a slowly rotating Tai Chi Bagua diagram above his head, with dragon-like runes flowing endlessly on the diagram.
Immediately afterwards, ten beams of Principle burst forth from his body, transforming into Shifang sacred seals. The seals exuded completely different Daoist charms, yet they coexisted harmoniously and resonated with each other under a mysterious order.
Further up, a blurry yet majestic phantom emerged from the void, neither human nor god, its entire body radiating a silver-gold glow, seated high above the heavens, overlooking all living beings.
On the outermost layer, a vast sea of stars unfolds, with billions of stars twinkling and shining within it, as if the entire Starry Sky has been moved into this world.
Numerous extraordinary phenomena layered upon each other, enveloping the entire Supreme Qian Dao Arena.
Because of the Sacred Court's celebration, many cultivators remained in the dojo. Some of them were originally attempting to break through to a minor realm, but they all stopped at this moment, and countless gazes converged on one place.
The Saint King Xiaoyao hadn't left yet either. He had originally intended to test the strange Wan Zhu, but he never expected Han Xuanji to cause such a commotion at the banquet.
He chuckled softly, tapping his folding fan in his palm, his tone tinged with amusement:
"You've got some nerve."
The desire to break through to a higher level and achieve sainthood on the spot is somewhat like what those legendary figures in the legends did.
The expressions of all the hall masters of the Sacred Court changed.
The Tenth Sacred Hall looked in Han Xuanji's direction and couldn't help but whisper to his colleague beside him:
"That's a bit too hasty. The Saint Emperor doesn't like such flamboyant people."
Another hall master frowned and echoed:
"Reaching the Sage Realm Stage isn't difficult for a genius of his caliber, but surely he shouldn't be so casual about it? He should at least go back into seclusion and make thorough preparations."
They all knew that the Immeasurable Saint Emperor had always appreciated humble and modest geniuses, Han Xuanji's actions would likely incur the Saint Emperor's displeasure.
However, the reactions of the group of young prodigies were quite different.
"As expected of the Undefeated Young Venerable, is he aiming to become a saint on the spot?"
Di Shengtian gazed at the silver-gold pillar of light from afar. The resentment he felt for losing to Han Xuanji had long since dissipated because of Han Xuanji's victory, and now he only felt pure admiration for Han Xuanji.
The other prominent figures beside him nodded in agreement.
Generally speaking, breaking through to a higher level is no small matter, and it is wise to make thorough preparations before attempting such a breakthrough.
Most of the geniuses present planned to immediately attempt to break through to the Sage Realm Stage upon returning home, but none of them intended to do so at the Dragon Terrace Sacred Banquet.
If the breakthrough fails, at best the soul and spirit will be injured and the Dao heart damaged; at worst, one will suffer Dao injuries and the foundation will be completely destroyed.
However, given Han Xuanji's talent, since she dared to do this, she must have some confidence in it.
"Hmph, just trying to attract attention."
On the other side of the Hongmeng Dao Palace, Hanguang Dao Lord looked displeased and made no attempt to hide his sarcasm.
He was hoping Han Xuanji would fail in his breakthrough and suffer a backlash on the spot.
It's no wonder he was so resentful. After all, his disciple Qingwei was defeated by Li Linglong in the selection battle and stopped at the top sixteen. Li Linglong then lost to Han Xuanji in the final. Hongmeng Dao Palace can be said to be the biggest loser of this Dragon Terrace Sacred Banquet.
He naturally pinned the blame on Han Xuanji.
The Immeasurable Saint Emperor showed no sign of blame.
He stood with his hands behind his back, calmly watching the figure beneath the strange phenomenon, his deep blue eyes filled with satisfaction.
Being flamboyant is good, it's the right thing to do.
He thought to himself.
The Sacred Court has been silent for too long; someone needs to step forward and let everyone see.
Han Xuanji happened to be that person.
At this moment, Han Xuanji had entered a mysterious and indescribable state.
When his consciousness challenged that barrier, it seemed as if an irresistible force carried him to infinity.
There, he saw the tree.
It was a great tree that had existed since the beginning of this world, its trunk seemingly taller than heaven and earth.
Han Xuanji only glanced at it from afar, but felt as if her soul was being sucked in.
That is the Eternal Divine Tree, the Eternal Continent, the Primordial Sea... it is the foundation and source of the entire Eternal True Tree Realm.
What it exudes is merely a faint, ethereal aura, yet it already represents the ultimate truth of the Great Dao of Life.
"A single leaf can give rise to a Chaos world, a single drop of water can generate endless life..."
Han Xuanji understood immediately.
What is spiritual practice?
Cultivation is about comprehending the way of heaven and earth, constantly evolving oneself, understanding the rules, and mastering the rules.
The Eternal Divine Tree is the origin of all these rules.
Even for a Saint King- level expert, there is still an insurmountable chasm between them and the immense power of the Eternal Divine Tree.
"To control the rules, one needs a sufficiently strong will. To adapt to power, one needs a sufficiently strong soul to bear it. To use power, one needs a sufficiently strong physical body to withstand it."
Han Xuanji pondered.
For example, the physical bodies of Eternal Deity are usually extremely powerful, and in a sense, the physical body of the Eternal Divine Tree should be the strongest without a doubt.
These thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning.
He did not remain in this ethereal state for long; unknowingly, his soul had already taken on the appearance of Sage.
Needless to say, his physical body had already reached the level of Sage, but the suppression of his cultivation level caused his physical body to seem to be bound by some kind of shackle, making it difficult to continue to improve.
At this moment, he focused all his attention on breaking through.
Han Xuanji pressed on, concentrating all his strength into a single point and launching a fierce attack.
The barrier was easily broken through by the medicinal power of the Fish-Dragon Feast and the erosion of his own boundless accumulated strength.
With a deafening roar, the barrier shattered.
His aura surged, his soul underwent a transformation, and his physical body was elevated.
The Eternal Flower that was originally on the Eternal Dao Fruit now bloomed with the radiance of Sage. This was the light of the "Dao," and its oppressive aura surprised even the Eternal Sage and the Eternal Holy Lord. This was also the "Dao Light" that protected Han Xuanji.
With almost no difficulty, Han Xuanji stepped into the Eternal Sage Realm.
His aura showed no sign of stopping after the breakthrough; on the contrary, it continued to rise, reaching new heights.
The Hongmeng Dragon Fish he had just eaten contained an immense amount of energy. Although it seemed that he had already swallowed and digested it, most of it was actually forcibly suppressed deep within his body by the Unfettered Ultra Instinct Technique, waiting for an opportunity to be released.
At this moment, he had just advanced to the Sage Realm Stage, and every inch of his flesh and blood was thirsting for energy. The power that had been suppressed for a long time surged out like a torrent, instantly breaking through layer after layer of minor realm barriers.
The first level of the Eternal Sage...
Second layer.
The third layer.
The power surged upwards until it reached Dao's Extremity slight bottleneck between the third and fourth levels, at which point it slowly subsided.
Han Xuanji sat cross-legged on the spot, his breathing steady and his expression normal, as if breaking through three realms in succession was nothing more than a trivial matter.
The cultivators who had not yet left all sensed the change in that aura.
Leng Qianshuang stood not far away, completely stunned.
She opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word for a long time.
She is currently only at the fifth level of the Eternal Sage.
Han Xuanji, on the other hand, had already reached the third level.
How long has it been?
When she first met Han Xuanji, he wasn't even the Eternal True Lord.
Although Han Xuanji is Transcendent with exceptional talent, a strong will, and great fortuitous opportunity and secrets, the speed of his breakthrough is still astonishing.
