"Boom!"
The entire Cyan Yang Realmâs sky shook violently, terrifying waves raged, and at this moment, the sun and moon seemed to have lost their rightful brilliance.
Everyone instinctively looked up at the sky, a breath of destruction made them feel uneasy.
"Heaven and earth upheaval, what is happening?"
Many sixth-tier experts looked somewhat grim.
Their cultivation was far higher than that of ordinary cultivators, and the sixth-tier realm already had the preliminary ability to control heaven and earthâs power, hence they deeply sensed Cyan Yang Realmâs fury.
Heaven and earth are in anger!
Or perhaps.
Something has made the entire heaven and earth furious.
At this moment.
A scent that made them feel both repulsed and unfamiliar suddenly appeared, and with its emergence, the entire Cyan Yang Realm began to boil.
Rumble!
Thunder rolled.
As if bringing about the end of the world.
At this moment.
All sixth-tier cultivators seemed to understand something, their eyes filled with shock, and some barely noticeable delight.
"Another world is invading!"
"I wonder what cultivation system this invading world possesses!"
"We mages have been in decline for a long time, I hope the invading system will be magic-based, so we mages have a chance to rise again!"
"Nonsense, I believe it should be a cultivation-based world, where we cultivators can achieve eternal life..."
Many have an instinctive fear of the incoming world, yet canât suppress their excitement.
The appearance of the Immortal Extinction Realm had already given them an edge.
Before the Immortal Extinction Realmâs invasion, Cyan Yang Realmâs strong ones were stuck at the third or fourth tier, but with the opening of the Immortal Extinction Realm and the subsequent conquest of the Ancient Wilderness, Cyan Yang Divine Courtâs power surged tremendously.
Especially those cultivators who focused on body refining, who gained numerous opportunities and techniques in the Immortal Extinction Realm, saving them much contribution in exchanging for cultivation techniques.
Because of this.
Among the three major cultivation systems of the Cyan Yang Divine Court, body refining now reigned supreme.
The remaining cultivation and magic systems were somewhat weaker.
There was no way around it.
When the Immortal Extinction Realm opened, body refining inherently had an advantage, an undeniable fact.
Many cultivators once fantasized about what it would be like if a second world appeared.
Now.
With the true arrival of a second world, thereâs much joy.
However, amidst this joy, there is also hesitation.
Because no one knows what strength this second arriving world possesses; if it is weaker than the Immortal Extinction Realm, itâs naturally good.
But if itâs stronger, the Cyan Yang Divine Court will inevitably fall into endless chaos and war.
By then.
Countless cultivators might fall.
But now that the otherworldly invasion has begun, no one can stop it, so they only hope that the invading world isnât too strong.
...
A vast consciousness surged, terrifying might erupted, threatening to tear apart the entire Cyan Yang Realm.
"How dare you!"
Gu Qingyang roared, gathering the entire Cyan Yang Realmâs power upon himself, unleashing a grand divine thought to clash against the invading will.
Rumble!
The azure sky shattered.
As the two forces collided, a dimensional space was opened.
Gu Qingyangâs divine thought entered this dimensional space, his form manifested; behind him, the shadow of an Azure Celestial Divine Tree solidified from nothing, its massive trunk supporting heaven and earth, as if holding up the entire dimensional space.
Simultaneously.
On the other side of the dimensional space, another magnificent force gathered, amidst the surging rules, a middle-aged man in a black robe appeared suddenly.
His face seemed ordinary, yet it also appeared to encapsulate all phenomena of life, constantly changing yet unchanged.
His gaze was cold, devoid of emotion, like an unfeeling killing machine.
Upon seeing him, Gu Qingyang immediately activated the Eye of Heavenly Dao.
...
Name: Taiyuan Realm Heavenly Dao
Essence: Heavenly Dao
Level: Ninth-tier high grade
Essence: Heavenly Dao Divine Body
...
"Ninth-tier high grade!"
Gu Qingyangâs expression changed instantly.
Taiyuan Realm Heavenly Dao!
Ninth-tier high grade!
It must be acknowledged, the Heavenly Daoâs ninth-tier high grade is absolutely incomparable to ordinary cultivators of the same level.
Even though Gu Qingyangâs current strength rivals the ninth-tier low grade, his realm is merely at the eighth-tier low grade.
To put it another way.
Even if the Taiyuan Realm Heavenly Dao here was a standard ninth-tier high grade, Gu Qingyang wouldnât be a match.
The difference of two minor realms is no trivial matter.
Especially in higher realms, each minor realmâs gap may not seem like a chasm, but itâs not insignificant, bridging it is no simple task.
For a brief moment, Gu Qingyang considered turning and fleeing.
After all, facing a ninth-tier high grade Heavenly Dao, using all his resources would afford no chance of victory.
Howeverâ
Amidst a flicker of panic, Gu Qingyang quickly noticed something amiss.
There was no other reason.
Because the feeling he got from this Heavenly Dao wasnât overwhelmingly oppressive.
Normally, if this really were a ninth-tier high grade Heavenly Dao, based on Gu Qingyangâs current strength, he would feel tremendous pressure from just a glance.
Yet.
This Heavenly Dao indeed posed some threat to Gu Qingyang, but not overwhelmingly so.
After a momentâs doubt, Gu Qingyang began to hypothesize.
"This Heavenly Dao must not be in its peak state, just like the Cyan Yang Realmâs Heavenly Dao once was, suffering critical internal injuries to some extent.
Thus, while it holds a ninth-tier high grade realm, it lacks the corresponding power!"
As this thought emerged, Gu Qingyang felt increasingly certain of his hypothesis.
Only this explanation.
Could elucidate why the Taiyuan Realmâs Heavenly Dao, evidently possessing ninth-tier high grade strength, didnât seem overwhelmingly threatening.
At this realization.
Gu Qingyangâs tense heart eased somewhat.
At this moment.
The Taiyuan Realm Heavenly Dao attacked directly.
Countless rule forces struck forth, myriad divine techniques filled the dimensional space, terrifying power surged like tidal waves, yet Gu Qingyangâs eyes shone increasingly bright.
An expertâs prowess shows depth with action.
If Gu Qingyang initially had only eighty percent certainty about the Heavenly Dao not being in peak condition, witnessing its true strength unveiled, he became fully certain that the Heavenly Daoâs power was indeed substantially diminished.
The attacking divine techniques were potent, yet their power hovered around the ninth-tier low grade level.
Gu Qingyang secretly sighed in relief, his gaze towards the Taiyuan Realm Heavenly Dao became cold and fierce.
In an instant.
He struck with a palm, revealing a myriad of rules, myriad divine techniques presented themselves, converging into a world-ending torrent that clashed fiercely.
