Ye Yuan was currently still at the Divine Traversing Realm. By the time he cultivated to the peak Alchemy Emperor anew, how powerful would his divine soul be?
At that time, could he refine out a genuine divine pill or not?
The previous life, Ye Yuan's lifetime aspiration was to refine a divine pill. But even if he was hailed as the genius most likely to reach the Deity Realm, this step was still remotely far.
But this life, he really had hope!
Once this thought popped up, Ye Yuan wanted to shout out that syllable once more without delay.
He swallowed an essence energy restoring medicinal pill in one mouthful and started to recuperate. Very soon, he recovered to his peak state.
"Mou …"
Ye Yuan shouted out this syllable once more. As expected, his divine soul strengthened a tiny bit once more. But this time, his divine soul actually had a tearing pain.
Chapter 797 - Evenly-Matched Showdown
"Hiss …"
Ye Yuan drew a cold breath in pain. The agony of the divine soul tearing was clearly awful.
"Looks like the breakthrough just now already reached the limits. Forcefully reciting this syllable anymore, and the divine soul will be at risk of ripping because of strengthening too quickly. Looks like wanting to shout out this syllable once more, I must consolidate my divine soul a little."
Ye Yuan understood the divine soul very well and discovered the issue behind it very quickly.
The divine soul strengthening too quickly was like being ripped apart by a powerful force. There would naturally be this kind of agonizing feeling.
As long as Ye Yuan consolidated the divine soul well, he could continue strengthening the divine soul through this syllable.
Knowing the details in it, Ye Yuan naturally did not dare to behave recklessly anymore. After swallowing several divine soul nourishing medicinal pills, he started consolidating the divine soul.
...
The following few days, Ye Yuan continued to advance triumphantly and had yet to taste any defeat.
After 13 days, the ones on the ranking list still maintaining undefeated were only left with Nalan Chu, Ye Yuan, as well as this Zhang Tianyi.
Zhang Tianyu's strength was truly incomparably daunting. During the several times he ran into opponents with powerful strength, he would bring the other party down.
Among them were Wu Jiantong who was known as second only to Nalan Chu in strength.
Looking at it now, this title was simply a joke.
Forget about Zhang Tianyi, even Han Feng's strength was also much greater than his.
But to Ye Yuan, the fervor the competitions provided for him clearly could not compare to the growth in divine soul.
In 13 days, Ye Yuan's divine soul was close to 20% stronger than the perfection state previously!
Ye Yuan had never known that a martial artist's divine soul could still be enhanced to such a level under the state of perfection.
With the growth in divine soul, Ye Yuan's essence energy was also rising along with it. In fact, during the 10th day, Ye Yuan broke through to the Ninth Level Divine Traversing in one shot!
Ye Yuan discovered that the divine soul's additional growth made his comprehension towards concepts increased considerably.
Similarly, at the Ninth Level Divine Traversing Realm, Ye Yuan's understanding based on his previous life was entirely different.
The Dao belonging to the Divine Traversing Realm became even clearer in Ye Yuan's mind.
Following the deepening of comprehension, Ye Yuan's cultivation realm actually reached peak Ninth Level Divine Traversing Realm unconsciously. It was only one last step away from breaking through to the Boundless Realm.
Ye Yuan concentrated on cultivating. In a blink of an eye, a night had passed.
Today, Ye Yuan was going to face the strongest opponent in this competition: Nalan Chu.
Before Ye Yuan appeared, Nalan Chu was virtually the unofficial number one.
Since the selection competition was underway until now, there were quite a number of experts who attempted to challenge Nalan Chu's throne, but they all failed without exception.
Now, a situation of tripartite confrontation, the ones with the greatest hope of challenging Nalan Chu's throne were Ye Yuan and Zhang Tianyi.
Today's match, in many people's hearts, should decide to whom the number one belonged to in the competition this time, and it was also to decide the quota ownersh.i.p.s for entering the Crimson Afterglow Valley.
Although Zhang Tianyi's strength was formidable, he did not comprehend a supreme true intent after all. If he really matched up against these two, he was probably going to lose.
"In one night, Ye Yuan actually broke through! With this, Ye Yuan is even more confident."
"What use does one minor boundary have? Unless he can break through to the Boundless Realm, otherwise, he is still a major cultivation realm away from Nalan Chu. Likewise, comprehending a supreme true intent, this sort of disparity is hard to make up for!"
"Heh, so what? Han Feng comprehended a supreme true intent, but didn't he still lose at Ye Yuan's hands?"
"Make no mistake; up until now, Nalan Chu hasn't even brought out his true strength and already made a clean sweep of his opponents. Ye Yuan's strength is very strong, but to want to beat Nalan Chu, it's likely still a little lacking."
Regarding who would win and who would lose between Ye Yuan and Nalan Chu, the battle had yet to begun, and it already kicked off intense discussions.
But when Ye Yuan finished off his opponent neat and tidily in the first match, everyone also discovered that his cultivation realm actually rose substantially overnight.
Beyond sighs of admirations, the majority of the people were actually still not very optimistic about Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan leaping realms to battle was indeed very impressive, but Nalan Chu's strength absolutely could not be placed in the same category as the others.
Han Feng admitted before that even if he comprehended a supreme true intent, he was also not Nalan Chu's match.
Nalan Chu's strength could be seen at a glance.
Even though the debates were endless outside the arenas, the parties involved both seemed to be very calm.
Boom!
Nalan Chu only used one move, and he blasted his opponent down the platform. A wave of cheering shouted out beneath the stage.
Returning to the rest area, Nalan Chu sat beside a young man.
This young man was slightly taller than Nalan Chu. People who knew him were all aware that this was one of the seven holy sons, Nalan Hong; he was also Nalan Chu's older cousin.
"You seem to be exceptionally enthusiastic today! Looks like that youth called Ye Yuan brought you quite a bit of pressure," the moment Nalan Chu sat down, Nalan Hong said with a smile.
Nalan Chu smiled slightly and said, "It's been so long since I've encountered an opponent which makes my blood boil like so!"
"Even though he comprehended a supreme true intent, he's just a Divine Traversing Realm after all. Could it be that with your strength, you don't even have confidence in dealing with a Divine Traversing Realm?"
"I'm very aware of Han Feng's strength. He even forced out 50% of my strength! This Ye Yuan being able to guide him to comprehend a supreme true intent, he has at least third-stage strength too. How can such an opponent not make me excited?"
Even though this Nalan Chu was very calm on the surface, Nalan Hong could clearly sense the turmoil in the depths of his heart.
Nalan Hong was slightly astonished. The talent of this cousin of his was even above his. Seemed like there had never been any opponent who was able to make him so excited.
This Ye Yuan made Nalan Hong take a huge interest in him.
But Nalan Chu's words made Nalan Hong unbelievably shocked.
Third-stage supreme true intent, this was very remarkable.
In the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land, there had never a genius who comprehended the third-stage of a sup
reme true intent appear before.
Nalan Chu's talent swept away the current generation, and only just comprehended the second-stage too.
Time ticked away. The peak battle that everyone had their focus on finally started!
Ye Yuan and Nalan Chu went up to the stage. Beneath the stage rang out waves of screams.
But the two parties involved turned a deaf ear to it.
"Use the Starmoon Sword. I wish to battle with you in your strongest state!"
Exceeding Ye Yuan's expectations, the moment Nalan Chu went up to the stage, he actually raised such a request.
Ye Yuan was stunned, and then immediately shook his head and said with a smile, "Using the Starmoon Sword, you can't win me."
This time, it was Nalan Chu's turn to be stunned. This was still the first time he met someone being so wildly arrogant in front of him.
But Nalan Chu could sense that Ye Yuan did not have the intention of making a pretense in front of him, but he really had this confidence.
Ye Yuan was seemingly just stating a fact and not intentionally showing off in front of him.
Ye Yuan was indeed stating a fact. No one could understand what the Starmoon Sword signified to him.
The Starmoon Sword's amplification of Ye Yuan's strength was absolutely not as simple as one plus one.
Nalan Chu furrowed his brows a little and said, "No wonder you didn't stint to spend one billion and also had to get the Starmoon Sword. Looks like the Starmoon Sword really has extraordinary significance to you."
Chapter 798 - Rank Five!
"So, on that night, the Sky Character No. 1 Room guest was you," Ye Yuan said rather surprisedly.
Nalan Chu smiled and said, "That's right! I originally thought that you were just intentionally causing trouble. I didn't expect that you actually offered a high price of one billion in the end! I've given you a chance. You're really not using the Starmoon Sword?"
Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm giving you a chance, so I won't use it."
"Huhu, I've grown so old, but it's still my first time that somebody dared to speak to me like this," Nalan Chu did not get angry but said with a laugh instead.
Ye Yuan laughed too and said, "That's because you never met a true genius!"
Nalan Chu's expression turned cold but knew that what Ye Yuan said was right.
The holy land's number one genius sounded impressive, but the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land was merely a Rank Nine Holy Land.
In the Divine Realm, Rank Nine Holy Lands could be found everywhere. Which was also to say that geniuses like him could be found everywhere.
Then what about Rank Eight Holy Lands, Rank Seven Holy Lands, even Rank One Holy Lands?
In these holy lands, how many geniuses more formidable than he was were there?
Disregarding others, just this Ye Yuan in front of him was already much stronger than him.
"A true genius is it … I need to have a look today at just what kind of strength you, this true genius, have! Ye Yuan, I'll only unleash one move. This move will be my strongest move! We'll determine the victor with one move, how's that?" Nalan Chu said with a slightly somber look.
Ye Yuan nodded his head and said, "I precisely had this intention."
After the small talk, the atmosphere on the stage immediately became delicate.
All of a sudden, a large space within the boundaries of the entire platform suddenly dimmed.
"Apart from members of my family clan, there has yet to be any outsiders who have seen before this move of mine. Within the confines of the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land, no one has the qualifications to make me use this move too. Losing under this move, you should be plenty proud!"
A wheel disc suddenly appeared in Nalan Chu's hand. This wheel disc was shockingly a high-grade profound artifact.
"This … What happened? Just what kind of move is this? To actually be able to make day and night reverse!"
"Could it be that this is the supreme true intent Nalan Chu comprehended? The entire holy land is aware that Nalan Chu comprehended a supreme true intent. But up until now, it seems like nobody has witnessed his supreme true intent before at all."
"No way, right? What supreme true intent is this? It's too bizarre!"
Seeing the color of the sky suddenly become dark, everyone was taken aback from shock. They had never seen before such a strange sight. It was clearly broad daylight. All of a sudden, it became night!
Ye Yuan was slightly surprised too as he said, "You actually comprehended the Light Supreme True Intent! No wonder your strength is so formidable!"
Nalan Chu smiled and said, "Looks like not only is your comprehension ability abnormally high, your knowledge is also extraordinary! The Light Supreme True Intent, there aren't many able to recognize it! Receive this move well then. I said that I gave you a chance before. You didn't cherish it yourself! Hope that after you receive finish this move, you can still stand on the stage. Lumen … Star … Brilliance!"
Nalan Chu raised the wheel disc. Above this dark space, the sky was suddenly studded with stars!
From above these array of stars, it suddenly rained down countless rays of light!
And the target of these countless rays of light was shockingly precisely Ye Yuan!
The Light Supreme True Intent was a type of very seldom-seen concept. Martial artists let light become their weapon for battle through comprehending light!
The power of light was boundless. It was a type of extremely powerful supreme true intent. Once comprehended to perfection, it could even dim the sun and moon. Its power was not beneath the Spirit Bristle Divine King's Blazing Flame Burning Heaven.
It was just that the Light Supreme True Intent was extremely hard to comprehend. Ordinary people could not find the correct approach at all. Therefore, very few were able to comprehend the Light Supreme True Intent.
And the vast majority of martial artists did not know that there was such a type of supreme true intent at all. Hence, that was why they were so shocked.
Ye Yuan also did not expect that what this Nalan Chu comprehended was actually this type of supreme true intent.
Furthermore, Nalan Chu was a Ninth Level Boundless expert. Regarding control of this area of heaven and earth, it was far above Ye Yuan's.
This move, Lumen Star Brilliance, practically seized all of the heaven and earth essence energy in this stretch of space. If Ye Yuan were unable to break this sort of deadlock, he would definitely lose without a doubt!
Originally thought that Ye Yuan would feel despair, didn't expect that he actually smiled faintly and said, "It's too bad, you only comprehended to the second-stage!"
Suddenly, Ye Yuan's aura abruptly erupted.
Origin Spirit Nine Transformations!
Under Fiery's assistance, Ye Yuan's essence energy instantly skyrocketed and actually reached half-step Boundless Realm all at once.
At the same time, a streak of sword intent surged towards the skies. Ye Yuan's sword intent was released without holding anything back!
Nalan Chu's expression changed, and he said in disbelief, "Fifth-stage! This … How is this possible?"
Nalan Hong beneath the stage stood up abruptly. On his face was similarly a look of disbelief!
This was Ye Yuan's first time showing all of his strength in front of everybody; it was a fifth-stage supreme true intent!
Including that time dealing with Han Feng previously, Ye Yuan merely used second-stage supreme true intent.
One had to acknowledge that Nalan Chu was very powerful!
The second-stage Light Supreme True Intent, this power level could absolutely show disdain for those in the same generation.
But it was a pity that who he ran into was Ye Yuan.
But to be able to force out Ye Yuan's full strength, he could be sufficiently proud too.
Before this, Ye Yuan was not planning on exposing his full strength. According to his plan, using third-stage strength should be adequate to deal with Nalan Chu.
Bu
t he did not expect that the supreme true intent Nalan Chu comprehended was actually this powerful. Even he also had no choice but to bring out his full strength.
Even though Ye Yuan used Origin Spirit Nine Transformations, he was still a major boundary lower than Nalan Chu in terms of cultivation realm.
"Rending the Sky!"
Sword intent surged to the skies and charged over towards the specks of starlight.
Sword chopping stars!
One sword descending, the darkness in this stretch of space instantly vanished without a trace. Light returned to the world once more.
The crowd was flabbergasted!
Many people could not discern the rank disparity between supreme true intents. But this did not hinder Ye Yuan giving them a shock.
A supreme true intent that was able to invert day and night; there was no need to think deeply about it, and one could already tell the person was an extremely powerful existence.
Furthermore, this was even Nalan Chu's first time displaying his supreme true intent in front of the public. Didn't think that it actually ended in defeat.
Ye Yuan's might did not require explaining at all.
"Fifth-stage supreme true intent! It's actually a fifth-stage supreme true intent! Hahaha, this Ye Yuan really broadened this old man's horizons!" First Elder was incredibly agitated.
He estimated previously that Ye Yuan's supreme true intent was very likely at the third-stage; the possibility of being at the fourth-stage was very low.
Matching up against Nalan Chu, it should be more likely a defeat than victory.
Nalan Chu's light concept, he was aware of it. The power was naturally extraordinary.
But First Elder never would have thought that Ye Yuan actually comprehended a fifth-stage supreme true intent!
A genius like this absolutely lit the world on fire!
"This boy, just how did he cultivate? At his age, how is it possible to comprehend a fifth-stage supreme true intent? This … This is too preposterous!" The elder at the side was speechless. He was thoroughly stunned by Ye Yuan.
