"Heavens... Heaven-level martial arts technique! Yang Zhen actually possesses a Heaven-level martial arts technique!" Luo Kun coughed up a mouthful of blood, staring at the entrance to the second-level world with a gloomy expression.
Everyone gasped, their faces showing strange expressions.
Yang Zhen has never fought in front of others, so no one knows the true extent of Yang Zhen strength. Even though he has mastered the art of Traversing the Void in Midair," it is only a Movement Method, not a powerful martial skill.
Who would have thought that Yang Zhen actually possessed a Heaven-level martial skill, and such a powerful one at that?
"But even a Heaven-level martial skill shouldn't injure you like this, right?" Yuan Kong looked at Luo Kun with a puzzled expression.
Luo Kun's expression froze, and he turned his head away, his face flushed. What could he say? He couldn't very well say that he had underestimated Yang Zhen and hadn't used his full strength, could he?
This was such a humiliating situation, Luo Kun could only swallow his pride and keep quiet.
Yuan Kong looked at Luo Kun with a strange expression for a while, then said awkwardly, "It's alright, it's just a Fortune Fruit. There are still eight more worlds to go. We'll find Yang Zhen eventually, and then we can just snatch the Fortune Fruit back."
Luo Kun's face turned ashen. Ten thousand crystals! They'd already been distributed, so of course he couldn't get them back. The thought that Yang Zhen dared to snatch things in front of everyone made Luo Kun's teeth ache with anger.
Dong Lei and the others were fighting when they suddenly heard a loud bang. Luo Kun cried out in pain and fell from mid-air, startling them.
Lan Fangyue, in particular, was startled, thinking that Yang Zhen had fallen from mid-air. But when she realized that it was Luo Kun who had fallen instead of Yang Zhen, her eyes widened in disbelief.
Let alone Yang Zhen, a Foundation Establishment Realm expert, even someone with only Lesser Vehicle Realm cultivation wouldn't dare to directly confront Golden Core Realm cultivator. Yang Zhen not only exchanged blows with Luo Kun, but actually won?
How... how is this possible?
For a moment, everyone on the first floor was stunned, staring blankly at the entrance to the second floor, unable to react for a long time.
Dong Lei rubbed his eyes and said in horror, "Did I see that right? Yang Zhen cut Luo Kun down with one sword strike?"
Lü Ping nodded blankly. "You didn't see wrong!"
Outside the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda, a large number of people have gathered. Almost all the major sects of the three major cultivation kingdoms have come and are lingering near the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda.
The strange changes at the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda have attracted many Golden Core Realm cultivators. Now, even the most distant sects have sent elders and even sect leaders with their disciples to come. As soon as they set off, a cry of surprise was heard.
"Someone has gone to the second floor!"
Upon hearing this, everyone near the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda was taken aback.
The newly arrived sect elders frowned and said in a deep voice, "Someone has entered the second level so quickly. Could it be that the Realm Treasure of the first world has been obtained by someone?"
Within the crowd, Hua Youyue and Tan Fenglie exchanged a glance. Tan Fenglie exclaimed, "Wow, someone's already entered the second level of the world so quickly! The Realm Treasure of the first level appeared a bit too early. Could it be that this person obtained them?"
Hua Youyue nodded, then asked with a hint of doubt, "I wonder which sect the person who entered the second level belongs to."
Upon hearing this, the Ku Toutuo glanced at Hua Youyue and asked the person beside him in a deep voice, "Go and see who has entered the second floor!"
Just as the disciple next to him was about to set off, a voice suddenly came from the crowd.
"It's Yang Zhen Yang Zhen! He's actually the first to enter the second level of the world?"
Cultivators entering the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda all carry a wooden plaque symbolizing their identity. At the entrance of the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda, there is an array that can sense the aura of the wooden plaque's imprint, and can identify the specific location of the plaque and its owner.
The person who entered the second level of the world has now been identified as Yang Zhen, which immediately caused a series of exclamations.
Upon hearing this voice, Hua Youyue and Tan Fenglie were startled, then breathed a sigh of relief. They exchanged a glance, their expressions somewhat strange.
Yang Zhen was the first to enter the second floor, which surprised everyone, including Hua Youyue and Tan Fenglie.
The Ku Toutuo snorted coldly, looked at Hua Youyue, and laughed loudly, saying, "I didn't expect that kid Yang Zhen would have the self-awareness to know that Realm Treasure is not something he can mess with. He simply found the entrance to the second world first. But... does he think he'll be safe once he enters the second world?"
The middle-aged scholar beside him chuckled and said, "At least he won't be discovered so quickly, after all, Yuan Kong and Luo Kun still have to compete for the Realm Treasure of one level of the world!"
Hua Youyue glanced at the two of them indifferently, without saying a word.
Tan Fenglie snorted coldly and said to Hua Youyue, "It's just a Realm Treasure. As long as Yang Zhen is safe and sound, that's all that matters. After all, his most important task right now is to protect himself and seize the time to gradually improve his cultivation. Going Overseas Trial in the future is the right path. Tower Master Hua doesn't need to worry too much about this matter."
Hua Youyue nodded and said, "Lord Tan, you are very kind!"
Hearing their conversation, the sect elders who had just arrived near the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda were completely bewildered. After asking those around them, they learned what had happened before the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda opened, and they couldn't help but chuckle.
An elderly man with white hair and beard chuckled and said, "This Yang Zhen is indeed an extraordinary person, but he's far too reckless. He actually offended so many Golden Core Realm before even entering the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda. He truly doesn't know his own mortality."
An old woman nearby snorted and said, "Since the Realm Treasure of the first world hasn't been obtained yet, let's hurry up and go in."
The old man nodded and instructed his disciple beside him, "Once inside, act according to your ability. If it's convenient, you can help Yuan Kong and Luo Kun as well."
The disciple was taken aback and asked, "Master, why are you helping the people from Lachan Temple and Heartless Sect?"
The old man smiled and said, " The Overseas Trial are just around the corner. Having an ally means having more protection. The dangers of the Overseas Trial are far greater than you imagine."
"Disciple understands!" The disciple smiled and continued, "However, it's truly shameful that Yuan Kong and Luo Kun were actually outwitted by a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator..."
Suddenly, another commotion arose from the crowd.
"Another person has entered the second level!"
"What? Who is it this time?"
"This time... this time a lot of people came in, at least dozens."
"Huh? Could it be that someone has obtained the Realm Treasure of the first level world?"
At that moment, a person tumbled out from the entrance of the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda with a thud, and before even hitting the ground, coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Everyone was startled; this was the first time someone had been spat out of the Nine Realms Exquisite Pagoda so quickly. People rushed forward to provide medical assistance.
What happened?
"Fellow Daoist, how did you suffer such severe injuries?"
After vomiting blood, the man's complexion improved significantly. When he heard people around him asking questions, he showed an unnatural expression.
Only after repeated questioning from the elders of the sect did this person stammer, "Elder, this disciple was not injured, nor was there any fighting in the first level of the world."
"Then how did you get out?" the elder asked, frowning.
"I... I am..." The disciple's face turned red, seemingly embarrassed.
"Speak quickly!"
"This disciple laughed..."
Did you laugh out loud?
Upon hearing this, everyone was bewildered!
How can you still laugh?
