A quarter of an hour later, Lin Xuan closed the system attribute panel, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light, looking radiant.
This time he really made a fortune. He killed a top-tier genius and not only gained hundreds of thousands of luck points, but also obtained the talent of Blade Soul. He also successfully survived the Tribulation of Annihilation, and then in one fell swoop condensed an immortal body and stepped into the Earth Immortal Realm.
All of this happened so fast, and happiness came so suddenly that Lin Xuan now has the illusion of being in a dream.
"My cultivation has improved to the Earth Immortal realm, and all other aspects have also improved. My current combat power is more than ten times that of before." Lin Xuan muttered to himself, "Now I'm afraid I can kill Golden Immortals as easily as slaughtering dogs! They are not worth worrying about at all. As for Taiyi Golden Immortals, I don't know. Although there is only one realm difference between the two, one is in the heavens and the other is on the earth."
The difference is like the difference between a celestial being and an earthly immortal—it's simply too vast.
With my current strength, it's hard to say whether I can deal with a Taiyi Golden Immortal; we'll only know after we fight.
However… I'm already content. Being invincible among Golden Immortals is already quite good, not to mention I still have millions of Luck Points. If I used them all at once, it would be enough for me to advance my cultivation further and reach the peak of Earth Immortal! At that time, my strength will increase even further…”
Lin Xuan muttered to himself, his mind stirred, and his spiritual eyes were activated to the maximum. He scanned the entire Buzhou Mountain at top speed, observing all the movements on the mountain, and finally focused his gaze on the direction of the summit.
At this moment on Mount Buzhou, there were already nearly three hundred people ahead of him, but they were still climbing. The closest one was still about a hundred zhang away from the summit. If they were outside Mount Buzhou, this hundred zhang distance would be nothing more than a thought to these prodigies.
However, this wouldn't work on Mount Buzhou. The hundred-zhang-wide area was like an insurmountable chasm, and even a Golden Immortal at their peak would face numerous dangers and immense difficulties in crossing it.
"Fortunately, there's still a chance!"
Lin Xuan glanced around and a broad smile appeared on his face. Since no one had reached the top, then the first place was his, and no one could take it away from him.
Thinking it over, Lin Xuan finally moved. He took a step forward and, like a ghost, rushed straight towards the summit of Buzhou Mountain. As he passed, it was as if a gentle breeze swept through the air. The terrifying pressure of Buzhou Mountain had absolutely no effect on him.
On the contrary, the various crises that occurred from time to time caused him considerable trouble.
Fortunately, Lin Xuan had mastered the superior minor divine ability, Shadow Shift, which allowed him to teleport briefly. Even if a sudden crisis arose, he could teleport away to avoid it. With the help of his spiritual eyes and divine vision, he was even more powerful. The combination of the two allowed Lin Xuan to avoid 99% of crises.
And so, Lin Xuan continued on his way, his speed being increased to the maximum.
They quickly surpassed one competitor after another. Fortunately, Mount Buzhou was very large, like a boundless world. Even if billions of people were thrown in, they wouldn't make a ripple. Especially at the top of the mountain, there were fewer and fewer people. Often, you could not see a single figure for hundreds of miles.
After passing half of Buzhou Mountain, the area was shrouded in clouds and mist. By the time Lin Xuan reached his current location, the dense fog had turned into a sea of mist, which could even block divine sense. If it weren't for Lin Xuan's supernatural abilities and techniques such as his spiritual eyes, it would be impossible to see through the dense fog.
So these people had no idea that Lin Xuan had unknowingly surpassed them.
Only Lin Xuan himself knew all of this, because he possessed the Spirit Eyes and Divine Eyes, which allowed him to see it all.
One incense stick later!
Lin Xuan had traversed countless mountains and forests, finally arriving ten zhang away from the summit of Buzhou Mountain. Once he crossed this final ten zhang, he could directly reach the top. But Lin Xuan stopped. Not because he wanted to stop, but because he had no choice, for there was no path ahead.
This mountain peak was shrouded in a hazy, gray aura, and the surrounding spacetime was cleaved apart, with spatial rifts appearing everywhere as far as the eye could see. The entire space appeared to be riddled with countless cracks, fragmented and broken.
Not only that, but a terrifying pressure was pressing down from the mountaintop. Even Lin Xuan felt immense pressure at this moment. The luck in the millions of identity tokens in his body had been basically fused, and as a result, he felt his own pressure increase greatly, as if he were carrying a star, a world, on his back.
"Space-time turbulence, terrifying pressure, heh... no wonder those people are struggling to move forward. The one who was at the very front has only gone thirty or forty zhang after all this time, and there are still sixty or seventy zhang to go before reaching the top..."
Lin Xuan stood outside the hazy air currents, muttering to himself.
The next moment, he stepped out and went straight in.
We have to go in eventually. No matter how much we fear it, it's useless. We can't just stop here. Besides, the purpose of this Battle of the Peaks is to select geniuses. If we can't even reach the top, what's the point of selecting geniuses?
Therefore, Lin Xuan was certain that the environment within this airflow was not as bad as he had imagined; otherwise, if even he couldn't get through, no one else would be able to either.
Boom... Rumble...
With a single step, an overwhelming pressure swept over, and endless spatial turbulence surged, containing boundless destructive power. Lin Xuan was not afraid. With a thought, his blood and qi boiled, instantly transforming into a blood and qi furnace to protect a ten-foot radius around him.
Bang!
Despite the impact of that force, Lin Xuan remained as steady as a mountain, withstanding the pressure and the turbulent flow of spacetime as he walked forward step by step.
However, because this hazy airflow contained a power that could solidify space, Lin Xuan felt as if he were stuck in a quagmire after entering it. His speed was greatly affected, and each step he took was extremely slow.
Therefore, although he blocked the external pressure and spatial turbulence, it still took Lin Xuan a quarter of an hour to walk that short distance of ten zhang.
A quarter of an hour later, when Lin Xuan finally took the last step and stood atop Mount Buzhou, he felt instantly refreshed and invigorated, as if his entire being was about to undergo a transformation. At the same time, an extraordinary phenomenon erupted.
Buzz...thump, thump thump...
At the summit of Buzhou Mountain, a dazzling spiritual light suddenly shone forth, its divine radiance reaching ten thousand feet, like a great sun rising into the sky, illuminating the entire battlefield world. Moreover, a deep bell tolled, like the sound of morning bells and evening drums.
This time, it not only resounded throughout the world, but also spread beyond this battlefield, reaching the vast universe and all the realms.
Countless people seemed to be blessed with good fortune, and a thought arose in their hearts.
Someone has reached the summit of Buzhou Mountain.
