"Gui Ying is the trusted confidant of the Main God Templeâs Grand Elder! Huang Yun wasting him is nothing less than slapping the Grand Elder in the face. Isnât that too bold?"
"Gui Yingâs cultivation has indeed been shattered! His Qi Sea is destroyed, and all his meridians are severed!"
"Is the General Association declaring war on the Main God Temple? Even if Gui Ying broke the rules of the Association, there was no need to be so ruthless, right? By destroying Gui Yingâs cultivation, they are sure to enrage the Grand Elder of the Main God Temple."
For a time, Commerce City was in an uproar, everyone was in a panic.
"You reap what you sow; no one else to blame," Feng Wuchen said coldly.
Indeed, if Gui Ying hadnât broken the Associationâs rules, would Huang Yun have taken action against him?
Without strength and still pretending, youâll end up struck by lightning.
Gui Yingâs fierce and killing gaze fixed on Feng Wuchen, biting his teeth in anger, "As long as Iâm alive, I will never let you go!"
"President Man already mentioned before everyone that the treasure must be consumed and cultivated on-site once acquired, yet you wanted to leave with the Heaven-defying Pearl. Clearly, youâre provoking the Association. Donât think just because youâre from the Main God Temple, you can do as you wish here. Wasting your cultivation was already merciful," Feng Wuchen said expressionlessly.
"You!" Gui Ying was so angry he could explode; having his cultivation destroyed, one can imagine Gui Yingâs fury, even wanting to devour Feng Wuchenâs heart whole.
"You broke the rules. The Heaven-defying Pearl disappeared in your hands, and the Association needs not take any responsibility. This is your own doing, and Iâll keep the ten thousand heavenly materials and earthly treasures!" Feng Wuchen continued.
Gui Yingâs face turned even more twisted but couldnât say a word.
Huang Yun let go, and Gui Ying, whose cultivation was gone, immediately fell freely.
"Does the Honored Elder Delegate mean he refined the Heaven-defying Pearl? Of course, besides the Honored Elder Delegate, I canât think of anyone else," Elder Moâs old face was full of shock and disbelief.
Clearly, many top experts present heard it and were extremely shocked.
"Young Master Chen, without the Heaven-defying Pearl, how do we prove its efficacy to everyone present?" Man Zhentian asked hurriedly.
Feng Wuchen smiled faintly: "Donât worry, President Man, I destroyed the Heaven-defying Pearl, naturally there is a second one."
"A second one?" Man Zhentianâs expression greatly changed, and he thought: "Is the Heaven-defying Pearl so easily refined? Itâs only been three days."
"Has Young Master Chen refined it?" Gumo Yun asked in shock.
Huang Yun thought to himself: "As expected of Young Master Chen, I guessed he would have prepared something."
With a flip of Feng Wuchenâs hand, a Heaven-defying Pearl emitting dazzling blue light appeared out of thin air, radiating extremely vast and pure energy.
"The Heaven-defying Pearl!" The crowd cried out in surprise.
"How... how is this possible? He actually has the Heaven-defying Pearl! Wait, is it refined by him!" Gui Yingâs eyes widened.
Looking at the crowd, Feng Wuchen shouted, "Gui Ying broke the rules, so his bidding is void. The last bidder should be the Grand Elder of Tai Yi Xuan Gate. Consider this Heaven-defying Pearl as Gui Yingâs contribution to your bid, with no need for further payment of materials from the Grand Elder."
With that, Feng Wuchen waved his hand, and the Heaven-defying Pearl flew directly to Elder Mo under the envious eyes of hundreds of cultivators.
"Thank you." Elder Mo quickly expressed gratitude.
Feng Wuchen looked at everyone and smiled faintly: "I know youâre all eager to know the efficacy of the Heaven-defying Pearl. Today, Iâll let you witness it, and you wonât be disappointed."
"President Man, is there anyone willing to try from the Association?" Feng Wuchen asked, looking at Man Zhentian, then another Heaven-defying Pearl appeared in his hand out of thin air.
Shock! Extreme shock!
Man Zhentian and Gumo Yun, along with the three elders, were stunned on the spot.
Everyone present was also stunned! They all had their eyes wide open, staring at the Heaven-defying Pearl in Feng Wuchenâs hand.
In an instant, the entire Commerce City fell into dead silence, as if holding its breath!
"Young Master Chen, Iâm willing to try!" Amidst the silence, a Six-Star God Emperor immediately shouted and flew up.
"Talentâs decent, take it and cultivate." Feng Wuchen smiled faintly, handing the Heaven-defying Pearl directly to the Six-Star God Emperor.
"Yes! Young Master Chen!" The Six-Star God Emperor quickly swallowed the pearl down and immediately sat down to cultivate.
As soon as the Heaven-defying Pearl went down his throat, it transformed into a vast, terrifyingly pure energy, swelling his body in an instant.
"What is this power? Itâs too terrifying! My body is about to burst!" The Six-Star God Emperorâs expression was extremely terrified.
"No need to refine it, just directly absorb it," Feng Wuchen reminded.
Following Feng Wuchenâs instructions, the Six-Star God Emperor absorbed the pure energy from the Heaven-defying Pearl madly, and his cultivation rocketed upward.
"So fast! What kind of cultivation speed is this?" The Six-Star God Emperor was so astounded that he was scared out of his wits.
In the next second, everyone was stunned to see the Six-Star God Emperorâs cultivation soaring.
The cultivation of the Six-Star God Emperor was skyrocketing at eye-popping speed!
"Seven-Star God Emperor!"
"Eight-Star God Emperor!"
"Nine-Star God Emperor!"
"One-Star Divine Emperor!"
Under everyoneâs watchful eyes, the Six-Star God Emperorâs cultivation surged up four-star levels in just about a minute, even breaking through the Divine Emperor realm!
"What? How is this possible?" Man Zhentianâs elderly face drastically changed, his eyes almost bulging out.
"One-Star Divine Emperor!" Gumo Yun, Xiao Shuang, and the other elders trembled fearfully.
Shock! Extreme shock!
Everyone present, including top experts like Man Zhentian, was rendered speechless like wooden figures.
"Hehe, Masterâs methods are truly brilliant, leaving them all in awe!" Sword Embryo transmitted with laughter.
"The Heaven-defying Pearl is enough to drive countless cultivators in the Seven Divine Realms crazy; Masterâs move is perfect," God Eyeâs respectful voice echoed.
Feng Wuchen grinned: "Humans canât resist temptation."
"O...One-Star Divine Emperor...Did I...Did I see it wrong? I actually broke through the Divine Emperor realm!" The person who broke through was utterly bewildered, feeling like he was dreaming, utterly unbelievable.
The silence was shattered, and the countless cultivators in Commerce City erupted instantly.
"What did I just witness? Instant four-star realm breakthrough! Even breaking through the Divine Emperor realm! Itâs terrifying! Absolutely terrifying!"
"Is this the terrifying efficacy of the Heaven-defying Pearl? Itâs even scarier than we imagined!"
"Four stars... Instant four-star breakthrough! Isnât this too heaven-defying? Is there really such a terrifying treasure?"
"How is this possible... It must be that I saw it wrong!"
All across, the hundreds of cultivators, including top experts like Divine Venerates, were awestruck by the efficacy of the Heaven-defying Pearl. The entire city was boiling, with exclamations shooting up to the sky.
An immediate four-star realm elevation, such a heaven-defying treasure, is unheard of.
Even having witnessed it firsthand, many preferred to believe their eyes were deceived rather than believing the Heaven-defying Pearl had such terrifying efficacy.
"Itâs too incredible! The efficacy of this Heaven-defying Pearl is terrifying!" Huang Yun said blankly, staring at the Associationâs guards.
