The giant sword above Yu Kai's head didn't strike the Tai Chi diagram directly. Instead, just like last time, it folded through space and appeared above the Dharma Image. The Dharma Image seemed to have anticipated this, clasping its palms together to firmly grasp the giant sword. "Haha! You thought I'd fall for it!" Zhang Qiming chuckled smugly from below, forming hand seals.

"Do you think this is all I'm capable of?" Yu Kai's eyes flashed like lightning. He pointed the Moon Spirit Holy Sword in his hand again, slowly pushing it forward. The giant sword, condensed by the power of the false god, actually pierced inward from between the huge palms.

"What?" Zhang Qiming's eyes widened instantly, and he let out a terrified scream. However, it was too late. At this moment, the giant sword controlled by Yu Kai successfully pierced through the palms of the Dharma Image and directly pierced into the chest of the Dharma Image. "Ah!" Zhang Qiming screamed, feeling as if his chest was pierced by thousands of arrows, the pain was unbearable. A terrible force raged in his body, madly destroying his body. The Dharma Image sitting cross-legged in the sky also began to dissipate at this moment. At this moment, the geniuses who had established a connection with the Dharma Image also felt unbearable pain in their chests, and their bodies disappeared with screams.

"This method of sharing among all spirits will actually cause them to get hurt as well!" Yin Wuji said with a look of relief as he watched the geniuses around him disappear one by one.

Nezha frowned, thinking to himself, "How did Yu Kai become so powerful? Even Zhang Qiming, who obtained the Hongmeng Purple Qi, is no match for him."

Yang Nianzhen looked at Yu Kai, clenching his fists, his heart filled with resentment. He knew full well that the gap in strength between him and Yu Kai was widening. "It seems that after leaving the secret realm, I must seek Dad's help to have a chance of revenge for my son!"

"Yu Kai! Do you think you've won?" Zhang Qiming gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with madness. "This is the method shared by all spirits. I am immortal!"

The black donkey, which had just returned, immediately sensed something was wrong and thought to itself, "What is this kid going to do now? I can't run away. Am I going to die at the hands of this kid today?" The more it thought about it, the more scared it became. With a "whoosh", it turned into a black shadow and disappeared in an instant.

"Hmm-ah-ah-ah!" The black donkey screamed in shock as Zhang Qiming drained away several strands of its holy energy. Its fur exploded, two streams of air emanated from its nostrils, and its eyes seemed to blaze fire. "Master Donkey is furious! Master Donkey will punish this scoundrel who brought disaster upon himself today! This is endless!" The black donkey, enraged, turned around and charged towards Zhang Qiming.

Zhang Qiming, who was recovering from his injuries, suddenly shuddered. He knew he had thoroughly pissed off the black donkey. "No matter what, let's kill Yu Kai first!" With this thought, he brandished the Celestial Master Sword in one hand, a cold gleam flickering on its blade. With the other, he spun the Tai Chi diagram, swirling yin and yang energies across it as he lunged towards Yu Kai.

"If I can't kill you once, I'll kill you twice! Let's see if you survive!" Yu Kai gritted his teeth, flapped his wings, and rushed towards Zhang Qiming like a ghost. The Yueling Sacred Sword clashed with Zhang Qiming's Tianshi Sword and Tai Chi Diagram, emitting a series of sharp metallic clashes. For a moment, the secret realm was shaken, and space seemed to be torn apart. The two sides fought back and forth, fighting endlessly. After decades of understanding and deducing Hongjun Dao, Yu Kai is now a different person. With every sword move, every move, he applied the principles to the extreme, displaying unparalleled martial arts mastery.

The two sides engaged in a fierce confrontation, creating a black hole in space that grew ever larger, gradually devouring the entire secret realm. The black donkey watched the two engaged in fierce combat, secretly shocked. "Is this still the Venerable Realm? Even an average Great Venerable at the peak wouldn't possess such terrifying power! You, Zhang Qiming, are a calamity-transforming being, blessed with the Primordial Purple Qi, yet you were beaten so horribly by Yu Kai?" It had considered teaching Zhang Qiming a lesson, but seeing him battered and blood-spattered, it hesitated, fearing retaliation against him when he grew up. Yu Kai wasn't much better off, his mecha in tatters, a wing broken off.

"If the fighting continues, this secret realm will be completely destroyed. We won't be able to stay here any longer." The black donkey was terrified. It waved its hoof, and a beam of divine light swept out, directly sweeping away Nezha and the others who were watching from afar.

The fight within the secret realm abruptly ceased at this moment. Each man thrust a sword through the other's heart, each spitting blood. The powerful sword intent ravaged their bodies, attempting to extinguish their last remaining shred of life. Zhang Qiming, frantic, rushed towards the exploding black hole, clutching Yu Kai. He knew Black Donkey was on his way, and he would undoubtedly rescue him, as he was connected to his Dharmakāya. Yu Kai's death was inevitable!

Yu Kai hadn't expected Zhang Qiming to be so determined to perish alongside him. He had sensed Black Donkey's approach, but he wasn't sure if it would save him. As Zhang Qiming dragged him toward the black hole, he quickly deduced a way to save himself.

"Hmm, hmm, hmm!" Although the black donkey was reluctant to attack, it felt that these two were rare geniuses and it would be a pity to see them die like this. At the last moment, it still attacked. A holy force shot out like a rainbow piercing the sun, rescuing them from the edge of the black hole and sending them back.

As Yu Kai and the others departed the Lingxu Secret Realm, the light of the Heavenly Prodigy Ranking, hanging high in the sky, gradually dimmed, and one name after another was recorded on the list. This undoubtedly signaled the official conclusion of the Lingxu Secret Realm Trial. All the cultivators who had been following the trial understood that these chosen individuals who had made it to the Heavenly Prodigy Ranking had gained immense opportunities within the secret realm. From then on, once they broke free from their own limitations, they would undoubtedly experience a rapid and powerful breakthrough in strength. Especially upon hearing that the Primordial Purple Qi had appeared within the secret realm, those cultivators who had missed out on entry due to age restrictions sighed with regret.

However, when everyone saw the list of the top twenty Tianjiao, they couldn't help but sigh that these people were all extraordinary beings. Even Nezha, who had prepared for years, could only rank fourth. It seems that even if those people entered, they might not achieve much success. At this moment, the ranking of the Tianjiao list is as follows:

First place: Zhang Qiming

Second place: Yu Kai

Third place: Lin Niuniu

Fourth place: Nezha

Fifth place: Shen Xingze

Sixth place: Bai Zhiwen

Seventh place: Ruiying
