Yang Zhen is not dead!
Not only did he not die, he opened his eyes!
It wasn't that Elder Jian's sword failed to kill Yang Zhen, but rather that Elder Jian Jian's sword stopped about an inch from Yang Zhen's forehead.
Everyone was stunned to see Elder Jian hovering at the same speed as Yang Zhen as he fell.
Does this mean Elder Jian isn't going to kill Yang Zhen?
Obviously not!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Elder Jian revealed a nostalgic expression and said, "Young man, when I was young, I loved seeing the despair in my opponents' eyes. You are lucky, but also unlucky. I haven't made a move in a long time, and today I'm itching to show my skills. When you show that look of despair, that will be the moment you die. But don't worry, I will preserve your soul so you can experience what it means to be powerless to turn the tide."
Hearing Elder Jian's words, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
It's like a falcon catching its prey; it could easily strike with a single blow, but it chooses to psychologically crush its opponent. The overwhelming despair it feels is chilling to even think about.
Apart from the thunderous roar in mid-air, no one made a sound on the entire Qianyuan Ridge. Even the Holy Maiden Qingquan, who frowned and looked clearly annoyed, only sighed and turned her head away, unable to bear to look any longer.
" Elder Jian... you've gone too far!"
The Holy Maiden Qingquan spoke slowly, her expression calm and revealing no change in emotion.
Another Great Saint standing nearby chuckled and said, "I don't think Elder Jian's actions were excessive. Now that the world has just been created and Great Saint have emerged, if we don't use overwhelming force to deter the world, there will only be more and more ignorant people like Yang Zhen."
Master Holy Maiden Qingquan was taken aback, shook her head, and remained silent. When she looked at Yang Zhen again, her gaze suddenly sharpened!
Yang Zhen smiled. Facing the branch-shaped sword that could take his life with just a slight advance, Yang Zhen smiled brightly.
"Have you ever heard this saying, senior?"
The smile on Yang Zhen's face left everyone bewildered, with no one knowing what Yang Zhen was about to say.
Even Elder Jian was taken aback, and looked at Yang Zhen with a calm expression, asking, "What did you say?"
"The villain..." Yang Zhen said, enunciating each word clearly, "Died from talking too much!"
boom--!
All of Yang Zhen's power erupted completely, with Heaven and Earth True Runes surrounding his body, Companion Heavenly Fire. His True Essence was as vast as the sea, and his Dao Intent was boundless. Even the power of Heaven and Earth Qi and Blood and qi was reborn, rumbling and surging wildly within Yang Zhen's body like the Heaven and Earth Embryonic Breathing.
A surge of divine soul power, like a vortex, roared wildly around Yang Zhen, and exploded with a bang as Elder Jian's expression changed drastically.
How powerful would Yang Zhen's current soul strength be if it exploded?
Even Elder Jian, caught off guard, stumbled and looked at Yang Zhen in surprise.
Everyone who witnessed this scene gasped in shock; no one had expected that Yang Zhen possessed such terrifying power.
These powers, each one something everyone dreams of, are now erupting from Yang Zhen. Under the violent shockwave, Yang Zhen shines like a blood-red sun in mid-air.
Yang Zhen possessed a certain Cultivation Method, which he had never practiced. Now, facing certain death, Yang Zhen no longer cared about such things. He unleashed his full power and began to circulate it wildly.
With Yang Zhen's talent, this Cultivation Method was just the beginning, and he could never stop practicing it.
At the same time, all the Great Saint, including Elder Diao, gasped in unison.
Elder Diao, in particular, upon seeing the aura emanating from Yang Zhen, roared in anger, "Quickly, kill him!"
Kill him?
Upon hearing Elder Diao Diao's words about lustful desires, everyone shuddered.
What is Yang Zhen going to do?
Yang Zhen slowly steadied himself and stood in mid-air. All the power in his body exploded wildly, as if he were fighting for his life. All of it, including his divine soul power, was burning fiercely in the blood-red aura.
What is Yang Zhen doing?
Elder Jian's expression changed drastically. He snorted coldly and said, "Boy, don't you think it's a bit too late to break through to the Half-Step Great Saint now?"
What?
Upon hearing this, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
Yang Zhen is actually going to break through to the Half-Step Great Saint at this time?
Which Half-Step Great Saint didn't break through by risking their life?
Even without several Great Saint watching from the sidelines, Yang Zhen's reckless attempt to break through to the Half-Step Great Saint could have resulted in his death. Now, with Elder Jian so close at hand, Yang Zhen is actually going to break through?
"This... it really is Yang Zhen! He's truly audacious, not only achieving enlightenment under the Great Saint's attack, but also attempting to break through while being pursued by the Great Saint?"
" Yang Zhen probably wants to use the power of the Heavenly Tribulation to fight against Elder Jian."
"How ridiculous! Ordinary Heavenly Tribulation pose no threat whatsoever to Great Saint. Does Yang Zhen not know the power of the Saint Realm?"
How could he not know about the power of the Saint Realm?
That fatal sword strike just now injured Yang Zhen because of the power of the Saint Realm. Otherwise, even Great Saint wouldn't have been able to take his life with just a tree branch.
Are you kidding me?
Yang Zhen burned his divine soul; this was the first time he had completely burned his divine soul.
Not only did his divine soul burn, but all the power in his body also ignited.
This is a desperate measure taken by cultivators before their death to unleash their full potential.
Once a cultivator fully unleashes their body's potential, it proves that the cultivator is prepared to die.
Hua Youyue and Han Yan'er both turned pale.
" Elder Mei, is Yang Zhen capable of successfully breaking through?"
Hua Youyue hurriedly asked Mei Wuhua was beside her.
Mei Wuhua looked at Yang Zhen with a strange expression, shook his head and said, "Such an unbelievable breakthrough method is something I've never heard of before, but..."
"But what?" Hua Youyue took a deep breath and looked intently at Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen's actions are unpredictable and whimsical; no one knows what he'll do next!
Unleash all your power, unleash your potential—legend has it that death is not inevitable!
Even if it wasn't certain death, only a handful of people could succeed. Throughout the entire Great Wilderness Era, not a single person could be found to have succeeded.
Can't you find a second person?
"Could it be that Yang Zhen is going to imitate that person?" Hua Youyue suddenly exclaimed, her face full of surprise.
Mei Wuhua nodded with a wry smile and said, "That crazy kid, that person only risked his life to do such an absurd thing after entering the Saint realm. Even at the Great Saint Realm, that person barely succeeded with the help of five Great Saint protecting him, and only after nine deaths and one life."
Hua Youyue's expression was complex, her eyes darting around. Beside Han Yan'er, the Shameless Cat was completely dumbfounded.
"Damn it, Kid Yang has really gone too far this time. Even that guy back then wouldn't have done something this crazy."
"What is he going to do?" Han Yan'er asked, a look of surprise on her face.
There aren't many things that can make the Shameless Cat completely dumbfounded; at least Han Yan'er had never seen the Shameless Cat with such an expression.
"He wants to integrate the power within his body!" the Shameless Cat said in a deep voice.
"What?" Han Yan'er was shocked, staring at Yang Zhen in disbelief, and asked, "How is this possible?"
Each power has its own characteristics; how can they be combined?
The Shameless Cat gave a wry smile and said, "No, it's not impossible. Someone has done it before. Wait a minute, where did this kid hear about this? That guy risked everything at the Great Saint Realm to accomplish it. What makes this kid dare to do it? What did he use to gamble? And he was being chased by a Great Saint, he's simply insane."
He will definitely succeed.
Hua Youyue and Han Yan'er said in unison.
