Chapter 849: Star Shattering Cloud Breaking

Hong Xiang didn’t understand how someone could improve so quickly in such a short time.

Posthumous people had to put a lot of effort into crossing each bottleneck. Why were small tribes small? Even if they had one genius and gave him all their resources, they couldn’t nurture a level eight king. It would be tough even to pass level six. In Blue Secret Realm, monsters roamed the land. Even the Kings couldn’t stop the Posthumous people from weakening, so what was the use of a level six warrior?

This was a rule.

But Ye Zhongming’s appearance shattered their ingrained thinking.

What level was he when he left the city? Four or five? Now, he was over level seven and was a step from level eight!

How did he do it?

Also, what was that on his shoulder? Why could he sense surging energy, but it was as if that thing didn’t exist?

Also, why was that monster behind him covered in gold? He had lived for so long and had never seen such a monster. But he heard that there were some strong monsters in the Night Demon Plains that looked like that.

Also, what were those humans carrying? So short. Were they weapons? But they didn’t look sharp. However, why was he terrified?

Hong Xiang wouldn’t clash with Ye Zhongming as he noticed many unknowns. Although he didn’t come from Earth, he knew how to play safely.

But Ye Zhongming wouldn’t let him go, and he had to step up.

Hong Xiang wasn’t a dumb person. Since he couldn’t retreat, there was no point in thinking so much. He thought about how to deal with the situation and felt there was still a chance… He had to capture Ye Zhongming.

Be it Cloud Peak Alliance or those who entered, they should listen to him. As long as he captured him, everything was possible.

Although he didn’t understand how Ye Zhongming got so strong so quickly, he was confident in defeating him.

He stepped forward and unbuckled the sword case on his back. He took out a… Silver bone blade.

A weird expression appeared on Ye Zhongming’s face.

This… I made it. You are using my weapon against me?

This silver blade was one of those that Ye Zhongming crafted for Neal. He didn’t expect it to end in Hong Xiang’s hands.

But when he thought about how Hong Xiang was level eight instead of seven previously, he understood.

The three level eight situation in the Imperial City was probably broken… They were under massive pressure as Hong Xiang wasn’t from the same background as them. Weighing their strengths, there was a high chance they had to give up their weapons. Neal might not even be safe now.

But all of those were things to consider in the future. Ye Zhongming had to deal with this person now.

Xia Bai took a step forward, and Liang Chuyin did, too.

Maybe evolution changed their bodies, so those higher-level people cultivated more smoothly after learning the battle skills. In those few days, Xia Bai, Guang Yao, Zhao Xingmei, etc, broke through and broke free from the rules of the Secret Realm. They regained their strength and merged the battle technique into their fights. Xia Bai was a seven-star evolved and didn’t need her equipment to compensate for her body’s deficiencies.

Of course, when you were of the same level, the speed of breaking through depended on one’s talent.

Over a quarter of the team had regained their strength, most from Xia Bai’s squad.

“No need, I will do it myself.”

Ye Zhongming waved and told them to back down.

Although he was level eight he had just broken through, so he wouldn’t be at peak level eight. Ye Zhongming was level seven but was a step from level eight. Moreover, there was something that gave him confidence.

After entering the secret realm, his strength increased.

The scorching Flame Technique and Soul Refining Technique broke through and entered the next level.

This was a good surprise.

Ye Zhongming experienced it when he returned to Earth. For example, he cultivated the Soul Refining Technique here, but when he got back, that mental energy had shriveled, and wasn’t as effective. It was as if the Earth’s rules were affecting the Secret Realm techniques, but that influence was negligible.

But after he returned, those two techniques weren’t suppressed. His cultivation speed increased. Although it didn’t push him to level eight he was close.

He was confident in killing this Hong Xiang.

“Die!”

Hong Xiang’s voice was like a blade. He flashed, and the blade light was within three meters of Ye Zhongming.

Everyone was shocked. Hong Xiang was so quick, and he was faster than someone at that level should be.

“Shattered Star Cloud Breaking!”

Candleroom’s voice wasn’t loud but he said the name of his technique.

Scorching Flame and Flowing Space were similar. The former focused on attacks and was sharp. The latter was more all-rounded. Apart from attacking, you could defend.

But this was another style. It would increase the cultivator’s speed. Before cultivating it, this speed would continue to increase. Once you comprehend its secrets, you could turn that speed into an extreme blow.

Hong Xiang used his ultimate immediately!

Many Posthumous people exclaimed and were worried for Ye Zhongming.

But Ye Zhongming didn’t panic and looked at him mockingly.

The silver blade paused when it was about to slice his head. Even Hong Xiang paused.

This wasn’t over. A bright light exploded from Ye Zhongming’s hand!
