" Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token!"
Even the Saint-level Divine Soul exclaimed in surprise, its body trembling slightly. This shows how highly valued the Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token was to a Saint-level Divine Soul.
As soon Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token was issued, the entire world seemed to change color. Amidst the solemn atmosphere, the terrifying celestial phenomenon erupting from the Bone Mountain in mid-air actually emitted some faint fluctuations.
Everyone stared in disbelief at the overwhelming scene before them, gasping in shock and turning pale.
" The Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token, what is this? Could it be divine authority?"
"This... it's like the sky has collapsed; this terrifying aura is comparable to Heavenly Tribulation."
"Damn it, I've never seen Heavenly Tribulation before, but why does this Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token seem even more terrifying than Heavenly Tribulation?"
Everyone was terrified by the terrifying aura unleashed by the Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token, including Mo Xueling and the others.
Mo Xueling knew that Yang Zhen possessed the Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token, and had even witnessed the entire process of Yang Zhen acquiring it. However, at this moment, the expression on her face was no different from that of the other cultivators, indicating that she had not expected the Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token to be so terrifying.
Dao Fanatic Han Yan'er trembled violently, her expression blank as she withdrew her gaze from Yang Zhen and looked up at the sky. If someone were standing in front of her now, they would find that her eyes had turned into a pitch-black sky, as bright and deep as the starry night.
The two rascals Shameless Cat and Flirtatious Chicken, exchanged a glance, their expressions filled with horror, and charged towards the Bone Mountain together. But as soon as they reached the top, they were knocked back by an invisible force.
After scrambling to his feet, the Shameless Cat shouted anxiously at Yang Zhen, "Damn it, kid, did you hear me? Are you out of your mind? Stop it right now!"
Yang Zhen ignored it, his aura like a long sword, cutting through thorns and brambles, slicing through all the pressure in front of him. Even the Bone Mountain Great Restriction was broken by the terrifying aura of the Heaven-Ascending Token.
" Yang Zhen, what exactly are you doing!" The Saint-level Divine Soul was visibly shaken, staring at Yang Zhen and saying, "Is it worth it to sacrifice your promising future for a woman?"
Is it worth it?
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, and their gazes fell on Yang Zhen with complicated expressions.
Even Hua Youyue was shaken to her core, staring blankly at Yang Zhen.
Everyone present was well aware of the terrifying potential that Yang Zhen was unleashing at this moment. Given time, Yang Zhen would surely make a name for himself in this world and even leave a lasting legacy.
But now Yang Zhen is facing not only a Bone Mountain Great Restriction, but also a Saint-level divine soul, and most importantly, a main divine soul that has been nurtured for a long time.
Once the Three Flowers return to their rightful place, the main divine soul will take control of the body's consciousness. Not only will Hua Youyue inevitably disappear without a trace, but the Three Flowers Holy Maiden will almost certainly kill Yang Zhen, who disregarded her dignity.
For a cultivator like Yang Zhen, if a Great Saint resolves to kill him, there is practically Yourong in the entire world.
Yang Zhen went so far as to unleash the Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token, yet he still might not be able to break the Bone Mountain Great Restriction and obliterate the Saint-level Divine Soul.
Was this outcome worthwhile?
The Shameless Cat sighed and continued, "Boy, the Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token n't so easy to comprehend. With your current strength, if you forcibly activate it and can't withstand the immense impact Nine-Step Heaven-Ascending Token brings, your soul will almost certainly suffer irreparable damage. At that time..."
At this point, the Shameless Cat glanced at the frowning Saint-level Divine Soul, then at Hua Youyue, and said in a deep voice, "Even if you possess heaven-defying talent and potential, you will not be able to successfully transcend the tribulation. Unless your cultivation level is permanently stuck at the Spirit Wandering Realm, you will undoubtedly die!"
"No... no!" Hua Youyue cried, staring blankly at Yang Zhen, her voice trembling.
Is it worth it?
These three words echoed in everyone's minds once again.
Not worth it, absolutely not worth it!
Even if Yang Zhen defied the heavens and destroyed a Saint-level divine soul to save Hua Youyue, whose divine soul was incomplete, Yang Zhen would still suffer from a damaged divine soul, making him unable to successfully transcend the tribulation and certain to die.
What's the point of saving Hua Youyue like this?
All eyes were on Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen, head down, was panting heavily. Suddenly, he raised his head, grinned, and said, word by word, "A person, in this life, must go crazy at least once, otherwise what's the difference between them and a salted fish?"
Buzz--!
" Ascend to Heaven in One Step heaven, a triumphant stride!"
Rumble--!
The violent air currents in mid-air were ferocious and raging, the light from the Heaven-Ascending Token shone brightly, and the vast, heavenly sounds crashed into the Bone Mountain Great Restriction, making a loud and deafening noise.
"No, stop now!" The Saint-level Divine Soul's expression changed, and he stared coldly at Yang Zhen, shouting.
Yang Zhen looked up and glanced at him. "You're scared!"
Step by step, as if treading the heavens, Yang Zhen slowly walked towards the mountaintop. "You are a Saint-level Divine Soul, capable of releasing the pressure of Saint Law. Any cultivator below the Saint level would find it difficult to withstand, but that's all there is to it. With only a Divine Soul body, you simply cannot fully unleash the powerful strength of a Saint-level being."
The Saint-level divine soul trembled violently, and looked at Yang Zhen with disbelief.
Yang Zhen was covered in blood, yet he walked with incredible ease, as if the violent force had not affected him at all.
"Unable to fully unleash your Saint-level power, you had no choice but to trigger the Bone Mountain Great Restriction to suppress me!" Yang Zhen sneered. "But this Bone Mountain Great Restriction wasn't actually set up by you. You were merely nurturing your soul here, leaving behind your legacy for the young lady to come, so..."
"Therefore, you may only be able to control a small portion of the power of this so-called Bone Mountain Great Restriction!"
Yang Zhen's words were resounding and echoed through the sky.
Everyone stared at the Saint-level Divine Soul with suspicion and disbelief. Seeing the unease on the Saint-level Divine Soul's face, they were all horrified and realized that what Yang Zhen said was probably true.
Hua Youyue stared blankly at Yang Zhen, biting her lower lip with a stubborn expression.
Yang Zhen left a bloody trail with every step, yet he walked with remarkable ease.
"Actually, I'm very curious about what would happen if I were to defeat this Bone Mountain Great Restriction Zone!"
"No!" The Saint-level Divine Soul stared at Yang Zhen with a horrified expression and said in a deep voice, "Are you crazy, Yang Zhen? To be honest, you will never be able to reach the top of the mountain, because this Bone Mountain Great Restriction is actually a Heaven and Earth Shackles. Unless you can break the Heaven and Earth Shackles, you will never be able to get close to Hua Youyue."
"What are the Heaven and Earth Shackles?" Yang Zhen asked curiously, shouldering the Great Deficiency Sword.
The Saint-level Divine Soul chuckled and said with certainty, " The Heaven and Earth Shackles and Earth concern all living beings. Once these Heaven and Earth Shackles are broken, the entire world will inevitably suffer an unbearable price. At that time, all living beings will be plunged into misery and suffering. Do you really want to abandon all living beings and bear the infamy of a sinner?"
Upon hearing this, Hua Youyue trembled, shook her head, and said to Yang Zhen with a solemn expression, "Give up, Yang Zhen. If I die, it is my fate. You cannot betray the common people and be cursed by thousands."
A hint of amusement flashed in the eyes of the Saint-level Divine Soul as he looked at Yang Zhen.
Everyone's face turned pale as they stared nervously at Yang Zhen Yang Zhen, clearly afraid that he might do something foolish.
At this moment, Yang Zhen suddenly burst into laughter. "The common people? What are the common people!"
Buzz--!
Yang Zhen held his longsword above his head, stared at Hua Youyue, and said, word by word, "This Sage of Saunter is very unhappy right now. So what if I betray the common people...?"
