Chapter 434 (2/2)
With the king medicine and a large number of spirit crystals, Xiang Shaoyun gathered a large amount of energy in his body. He circulated his Heaven Conquering Overlord Manual over and over, and with the presence of the middle-aged Emperor still weighing down on him, he finally charged into the next stage.
”Ahhhh!”
He faced the sky and roared. Blood was dripping out of the corner of his lips as he straightened his back. A large amount of power surged out of him, instantly shattering the barrier of the fourth stage. Immediately, his weakening presence of dragon and tiger was strengthened, becoming several times more powerful than its previous form.
”Roar! Roar!”
The purple dragon soared, the white tiger pounced. Their roars filled the air, shaking the world.
At that moment, the young geniuses who had remained unaffected by the presence's pressure all looked at Xiang Shaoyun in astonishment. The middle-aged man from the Yu Clan was also looking over. The nonchalant expression on his face was gone, replaced by a complicated look when he found that Xiang Shaoyun had broken through under the suppression of his presence. It was an inconceivable feat.
Breaking through was something any cultivator would treat with extreme caution. Generally, one would only wait for the optimal timing before breaking through, aiming to smoothen the process. Of course, there were some who were hit by inspiration in the midst of battle and broke through as a result, but breaking through under the suppression of an Emperor's presence was something unheard of.
More importantly, Xiang Shaoyun was only a third-stage Skysoar Realm cultivator. Not only had he broken through to the next stage under such suppression, he had even successfully broken free of the suppression. This was a shocking feat.
One ought to know that even some of the ninth-stage Kings here had failed to withstand the presence of an Emperor, but this young man who was only a fourth-stage Skysoar Realm cultivator had done so. That was a display of his terrifying potential.
I can't allow him to keep growing. I must kill him at all cost after leaving this place, vowed Di Tong inwardly.
He knew very well Xiang Shaoyun had only started cultivating after he was driven from the Ziling Sect. It had only been three years, and he was already a fourth-stage King. A talent like that had surpa.s.sed even his two most remarkable siblings, his eldest brother and ninth brother. If he couldn't kill Xiang Shaoyun, in the future, he would bring their clan calamity.
Apart from Di Tong, Su Jun also had a similarly murderous look in his eyes.
This d.a.m.nable kid! Su Jun cursed inwardly.
He had always liked Lady Shura, but she had always ignored him. Since his master had ordered him to partic.i.p.ate in this banquet, he had decided to come. When he saw Xiang Shaoyun breaking through right before his eyes, his hatred for Xiang Shaoyun deepened.
Xiang Shaoyun was completely oblivious to all their gazes. He was still completely immersed in the pleasure of breaking through. A comfortable sensation washed over him as he felt the suppression grow weaker until it eventually became almost negligible.
It was at this time that the middle-aged Emperor's voice rang out, ”Alright. Those who are still standing can now enter the third floor.”
