Even if Li Chunjun erupted with terrifying strength, he was still no match for top-tier advanced Heavenly Sun experts like Chu Qing.
Among the Cangxuan Sect young generation, only Chu Qing had reached the advanced Heavenly Sun stage. This was because, for him, the Cangxuan Sect had opened up the Saint Tower, a treasure that old ancestor Cang Xuan had left for the Cangxuan Sect. It was said to have a limited number of times which it could be opened.
Therefore, it was impressive that Zhou Yuan could reach the intermediate Heavenly Sun stage. Even so, an intermediate Heavenly Sun expert couldn’t change the present situation.
But fortunately, no one was too disappointed about this. After all, they had never truly placed their hopes on Zhou Yuan from the beginning. They were optimistic about the powerful and fierce Tianyuan Region team he led.
It was just that the expressions on the faces of the Tianyuan Region team members surprised them a little. The Tianyuan Region members didn’t show any anger towards the opponents who mocked Zhou Yuan; instead, they wore strange expressions.
Zhou Yuan similarly wasn’t a little bit angry. He landed on a towering mountain peak and smiled faintly. “Is the Sacred Race only good at talking? Does no one dare to play with me as a warm-up?”
Ji Mo stared contemptuously at Zhou Yuan, but he didn’t plan to respond to Zhou Yuan's provocation. He believed that doing so would lower his status.
Ji Mo tilted his head slightly, and Wei Tuo immediately understood what he was thinking and replied, “There is no need for me to do it myself, right? Just send any advanced Heavenly Sun expert.”
Ji Mo explained, "I want a clean kill. I want the leader of the Tianyuan Region team to be devastatingly slaughtered in front of everyone. This will greatly impact their morale.
“So, it’s safer that you take on the challenge.”
Wei Tuo was obviously reluctant, but he couldn’t refuse since Ji Mo was the captain. He cast an icy stare at Zhou Yuan. “I will make him regret coming here.”
Like a ghost, Wei Tuo slightly moved and appeared on a boulder in front of Zhou Yuan.
His face was dark and unpleasant, and he had no intention of saying a word. He simply stomped his foot, and a vast torrent of Genesis Qi soared into the sky as three glass Heavenly Suns loomed behind him.
A Genesis Qi pressure that twisted countless people’s faces with fear swept across the air. Given the intensity of the Genesis Qi, it was at least at the level of 2.7 billion stars!
His Genesis Qi foundation was very close to that of Wang Xuanyang and the others!
“Zhou Yuan, be careful!” Chu Qing solemnly warned.
The pressure brought by Wei Tuo's Genesis Qi stifled even people like Chu Qing who were outside.
"Aren't you going to help him?!" Mu Wuji was so worried that he couldn’t help shouting to Qin Lian and the others standing in the air watching.
“No need to worry.” Qin Lian smiled at him, seeing his anxious face.
Zhou Yuan had previously single-handedly defeated Li Zhu. Moreover, he was much stronger than before, so Qin Lian wasn’t worried that Wei Tuo could threaten Zhou Yuan.
Mu Wuji's face twitched uncontrollably. Don't worry? Wei Tuo's Genesis Qi pressure is so strong that it’s difficult to breathe. Also, Zhou Yuan is only at the intermediate Heavenly Sun stage!
At that moment, Mu Wuji even suspected that they wanted to deliberately kill Zhou Yuan.
In contrast to Chu Qing and Mu Wuji, Zhou Yuan was incredibly calm. There was only a flicker of surprise in his eyes. Wei Tuo should be the second strongest in the Sacred Race team in front of him, but his Genesis Qi foundation was close to Wang Xuanyang’s.
It should be said that Wang Xuanyang was second only to Guan Qinglong among Hunyuan Heaven’s Heavenly Sun stage experts.
“They say that Shengling Heaven is ranked third among the Sacred Race’s four heavens and that the Sea Subduing Hall is an overlord-like force. I can tell the Sacred Race’s strength is remarkable and unfathomable since its third-ranking heaven can compete with Hunyuan Heaven, the strongest heaven of the non-sacred races.
"But I couldn't force Ji Mo down to fight.”
Zhou Yuan was a little disappointed. His goal was actually Ji Mo. If he could kill him, the Sacred Race’s morale would inevitably decrease, and it would reduce the damage his team faced if a battle broke out between them.
Boom!
While Zhou Yuan was in deep thought, Wei Tuo's cold, venomous-snake-like gaze locked on his body. The mountain beneath his feet began to crumble as boulders tumbled down.
Wei Too shot out like a lightning bolt with 2.7 billion Genesis Qi stars roaring behind him, like a deadly monster descending upon the world.
Rumble!
Although Wei Tuo was contemptuous of Zhou Yuan, he didn’t hold back. He mercilessly threw out a punch. Space shattered, and several spatial fragments revolved around his fist like the wind.
“Nine Void Fragments!”
Not only did he unreservedly reveal his Genesis Qi foundation, but he was performing a killing move. Nine hurricane winds revolved around him, each one more powerful than the previous as they approached the center like nine tremendous beasts. Space collapsed at the places Ji Mo passed.
As the terrifying offensive shrouded him, everyone on Cangxuan Heaven’s side of the great valley stood aghast.
Chu Qing gritted his teeth and was about to help out, but just as he moved, he felt a chilling and terrifying aura lock him to the spot.
Chu Qing looked up to see Ji Mo staring down coldly at him like a venomous snake eyeing its prey. Chu Qing's face darkened. He knew that it was impossible for him to help Zhou Yuan now.
"Junior brother Zhou Yuan, you have to be careful." Unable to do anything, Chu Qing could only stare worriedly at Zhou Yuan.
Under countless terrified gazes, Zhou Yuan simply smiled in anticipation. He wanted to test out what kind of level his strength would reach if he fought without any reservation. Therefore, he balled his hand into a fist as a low voice sounded in his mind.
Promotion.
Chapter 1127 Expose
Rumble!
Astonishingly powerful Genesis Qi swept across the area and displayed its terrifying destructive power, shattering space and the mountains it passed.
On the great valley battlefield, everyone from Cangxuan Heaven watched the battle with their faces scrunched up in worry.
"Qingchan, isn’t Chosen Zhou Yuan too arrogant?" an advanced Heavenly Sun expert beside Li Qingchan whispered.
But even if Wei Tuo was aggressive, overbearing and imposing, Li Qingchan just stared at the slender young figure and said through gritted teeth, “Zhou Yuan has never been a reckless person. He must have confidence in winning since he accepted the challenge.”
The advanced Heavenly Sun expert could only smile bitterly when he heard Li Qingchan’s words. He, of course, had heard about Zhou Yuan’s name and reputation before, but he didn’t care too much because he was already at the Heavenly Sun stage then and didn’t think much about the battles of the Alpha-Origin stage.
But Zhou Yuan was going to face an enemy at the top of the Heavenly Sun stage! Wei Tuo's Genesis Qi foundation was at the terrifying level of 2.7 billion. If Zhou Yuan faced him, Wei Tuo could suppress and immobilize Zhou Yuan with just his Genesis Qi alone.
On the other hand, Zhou Yuan was only at the intermediate Heavenly Sun stage.
Given the gap between them, how could others relax?
“What is Zhou Yuan doing? Can he really stop that person from the Sacred Race?” Ning Zhan couldn't help mumbling.
Zhen Xu slightly furrowed his brows. His rationality told him that the gap between the two should be huge and that Wei Tuo could kill any ordinary intermediate Heavenly Sun expert immediately, but he wasn’t so certain about Zhou Yuan.
He pondered for a moment and finally gave a more perceptive answer, “Zhou Yuan should have some means to deal with him. At the very least, he wouldn’t be beaten to death.”
>
Ning Zhan looked at Li Chunjun again and said, "What do you think?”
Li Chunjun thought for a moment before he answered, "I think Wei Tuo might be killed.”
His words surprised both Ning Zhan and Zhen Xu. They didn’t think Li Chunjun would give such a shocking answer, which they didn't even dare to think about.
Zhen Xu couldn’t help asking, “How do you know?”
“Intuition.”
Zhen Xu and Ning Zhan were speechless.
Boom!
While they were discussing the battle, Wei Tuo appeared in front of Zhou Yuan and punched out with berserk storm-like Genesis Qi wrapped around his fist.
With his punch, space exploded.
"Lowly pig, you dare act tough in front of my Sacred Race?!” Wei Tuo's face grew hideous and sinister, and his eyes were filled with pleasure. He knew that Zhou Yuan would explode into a foam of blood beneath his punch. Zhou Yuan’s corpse would be utterly destroyed.
As the terrifying storm raged, Zhou Yuan suddenly lifted his drooping eyes, and the corners of his mouth curved upward.
Boom!
It was at that moment he erupted with a platinum Genesis Qi storm, and his Genesis Qi foundation soared at an indescribable speed.
It soared to 2.8 billion in just a few breaths! It had surpassed Wei Tuo’s Genesis Qi foundation!
Zhou Yuan’s Genesis Qi foundation was already near 2.1 billion before the battle, which was a huge increase compared to before he came to Guyuan Heaven. That foundation, coupled with his Promotion Rune, had allowed Zhou Yuan’s Genesis Qi foundation to reach a terrifying level.
“What?!”
The terrifying Genesis Qi erupting from Zhou Yuan’s body caused Wei Tuo’s expression to change dramatically and twist in shock.
That bastard is only at the intermediate Heavenly Sun stage, so how can he erupt with such terrifying Genesis Qi? What kind of secret art could achieve this? Wei Tuo roared in his mind.
An indescribable feeling of danger gushed into his heart, making him aware that Zhou Yuan’s attack carried the aura of death.
Wei Tuo, however, didn’t lose his rationality from the shock. His expression abruptly changed, and he immediately burst out laughing, “Pig, you pretended to be a pig to eat the tiger, but it’s a pity that you underestimated my Sacred Race!”
Wei Tuo instantly folded one hand into a seal and activated the secret art he had been secretly preparing.
Although he disdained Zhou Yuan, he, in truth, had prepared for the worst. He originally thought he wouldn’t need to use his preparations, but now he was thankful for his usual cautiousness.
“The Great Wave Layers!”
With a roar, Genesis Qi rolled up behind him, and his foundation climbed again to the level of 2.9 billion, surpassing Zhou Yuan’s.
Boom!
The space around him was shattering due to the terrifying Genesis Qi pressure.
“No matter what means you have, a pig will always be a pig!” Wei Tuo roared as he slammed out his fist, sending a tremendous wave of Genesis Qi gushing straight towards Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan watched the wave speed towards him without a ripple on his face, but the smile on his lips slowly deepened.
"Is this all you have?" His smile seemed a little strange. “I’m sorry, but it's still not enough.”
Then, the seal that Zhou Yuan had prepared finally formed.
“Earth Saint Rune!”
Buzz!
The ground quaked as an endless stream of berserk energy rushed up from the depths of the earth and drilled into his body from his feet.
Zhou Yuan's body quivered violently, his blood bubbling. The ground around his feet began to crack.
But what made Wei Tuo's expression change dramatically was that Zhou Yuan's 2.8 billion Genesis Qi foundation soared once again, reaching the level of 3 billion under countless stunned gazes!
"How is that possible?!" exclaimed even Wei Tuo.
He couldn't believe that someone at the intermediate Heavenly Sun stage could raise his Genesis Qi foundation to such a level!
Boom!
But no matter how aghast Wei Tuo was, Zhou Yuan erupted with all his Genesis Qi and no longer maintained the same position. He stood on his tiptoes as snow-white hair broke out from his soles and covered his feet.
“Genesis Breaker.”
The snow-white color quickly turned a deep, dark color.
Chi!
When Zhou Yuan aimed a kick at Wei Tuo, his kick was like a heavy hammer and shattered the space ahead of him. Countless spatial fragments wrapped around his foot.
The power of his kick could split even a mountain into two parts.
Facing such power, Wei Tuo had no room to retreat. He understood he had to face it head-on for a chance to survive. He hoped that perhaps Zhou Yuan's power would be some kind of illusion to deceive him!
"I don't believe a lowly pig can surpass a heaven pride from the Sacred Race!”
Wei Tuo's eyes were fierce and ruthless as he gathered his strength and circulated his Genesis Qi. Then, an arc of sunlight collided with the foot wrapped in spatial fragments.
Boom!
A thunderous noise resounded from the impact, and the entire great valley quaked violently. Berserk Genesis Qi shock waves immediately formed, severing everything they passed, including the great river.
All eyes were fixed on the location of the collision.
There, the two forces seemed to be in a stalemate. Then, everyone’s pupils suddenly shrank.
Zhou Yuan remained motionless like a boulder after the collision, but Wei Tuo, on the other hand, unleashed a tragic scream. Half of Wei Tuo’s body exploded, filling the air with blood.
Bang!
The destructive force blasted his body back, and he directly rammed into the great valley. Wherever he passed, cliffs split apart as though a giant divine hatchet was opening up another mountain stream.
The noisy battlefield fell silent, and only the rushing water from the great river could be heard.
Countless people stared aghast at the fissure that ran through the great valley and then at the figure embedded into the cliff at the end.
It was Wei Tuo, but half his body was destroyed, and his blood had stained the mountain wall red.
Seeing this, let alone the various forces from Cangxuan Heaven, even the Sacred Race team members, who wore mocking expressions before, froze for a moment.
Mountain wind whistled across the great valley.
The countless figures frozen in shock eventually and gradually came back to their senses. They looked at the young figure standing atop the mountain, and trembling emotions surged from their hearts to the top of their skulls, causing their scalps to numb for a moment.
Who would have thought that a top expert from the Sacred Race would be defeated by an intermediate Heavenly Sun expert’s kick?
Chapter 1128 Abnormal Intermediate Heavenly Sun Stage
The severed great river in the great valley basin was flowing again.
It was just that there was still utter silence in the valley, and countless people were staring blankly at the huge fissure that had appeared in the valley. They especially stared at the figure embedded into the mountain wall at the very end of the crevice.
At that moment, Wei Tuo looked indescribably tragic, and he no longer had half the imposing manner and arrogance he had before.
Gulp.
Li Qingchan, who always cared about her image, also cupped her mouth with her small hand and gulped. Although she knew from the start that Zhou Yuan wasn’t reckless, she had never thought he would be able to send the Sacred Race team’s deputy captain flying with one kick.
He was a terrifying enemy with a Genesis Qi foundation of 2.7 billion, and he had used a secret technique to increase it to 2.9 billion!
A Heavenly Sun expert of such a level could crush all Heavenly Sun experts in the entire Cangxuan Heaven! Even someone as strong as Chu Qing would likely be crushed facing Wei Tuo.
/> Who would have thought the battle would end in such a way?
The advanced Heavenly Sun expert from the Cangxuan Sect wiped the cold sweat on his forehead as he stood next to Qingchan, his hands trembling. He muttered, “I understand what your emotions were like back then when such a monster appeared in your generation.”
Zhou Yuan was clearly only at the intermediate Heavenly Sun stage, but his Genesis Qi foundation could soar to the level of 3 billion stars!
What other word could describe him besides monster?
He and the other Heavenly Sun experts in Cangxuan Heaven didn’t quite understand why the younger generation would revere Zhou Yuan so much in the past, but now he understood it.
Sometimes, such a monster was just for people to worship and revere.
"Compared to him, we advanced Heavenly Sun experts are nothing.”
The experts from the other Cangxuan Heaven forces snapped out from their shock and smiled wryly.
They previously felt that Zhou Yuan’s cultivation level didn’t quite match his reputation, but now they realized that they were too narrow-minded and that Zhou Yuan’s intermediate Heavenly Sun stage was not the same as the intermediate Heavenly Sun stage they imagined.
Ning Zhan and Zhen Xu looked at each other and then simultaneously turned to Li Chunjun, who was standing silently beside them. They said indifferently, “I thought the gap between us would be closed when we meet again, but it seems we were too naive.”
There wasn’t much of an expression on Li Chunjun’s face when he heard their words. He just gave a faint smile and said, “I think this is good. He is my goal. The farther he goes, the more motivated I am to catch up to him.”
Ning Zhan was silent for a moment. He then said, "Blind sword, if you were Qingyu or Luluo, we would be able to take it, but we don’t know how to respond if you say such a thing to us with your appearance.”
Li Chunjun seemed taken aback. After a moment, the iron sword in his arms quivered, and wisps of piercingly sharp sword qi shot towards Ning Zhan.
Ning Zhan couldn’t evade in time, and the sword qi tore his robe to pieces, exposing his sturdy upper body.
