"I'll deal with these troubles first, then find a quiet place to break through my cultivation level," Gu Yifeng thought to himself. Then, his eyes suddenly opened, his gaze sharp as two swords shooting towards Yuan Ba. Holding a spear, he took a step forward, and the sound of wind and thunder rang out. His body transformed into a storm and rushed towards Yuan Ba.
"Boom!" A violent collision sound rang out in the void. Gu Yifeng and Yuan Ba were engaged in fierce battle. In a short time, the two clashed dozens of times. Yuan Ba's attacks were all blocked, and Gu Yifeng even gained the upper hand.
"This person is incredibly powerful. Is he really only at the second level of the Yuanhuang realm?" The crowd stared blankly, their faces filled with disbelief.
Yuan Ba was a top figure among the younger generation in the Eight Desolate Cities, with incredible combat power, yet he couldn't defeat someone of the same realm.
"Damn it, I refuse to accept this!" Yuan Ba grew more and more anxious as he fought, roaring inwardly. He had already broken through to the sixth level of the Yuan Emperor realm and should have swept away many geniuses. Why did he lose to this unfamiliar white-clad figure?
Ape Tyrant hovered in the air, slowly spreading his arms and letting out a deep roar. Instantly, a hurricane swept through the entire space, blowing over everyone. Many demonic beasts stopped their attacks, staring at Ape Tyrant with fear in their eyes.
"Hmm?" Gu Yifeng frowned slightly. He sensed an incredibly terrifying pressure descending upon him, pressing down on his body and bones. This pressure was too strong for him to withstand.
He looked up and saw Yuan Ba standing there, clad in golden armor, his handsome face exuding an air of dominance and arrogance, as if he were born to fight!
Yuan Ba stared intently at Gu Yifeng, his eyes deep and unfathomable, like an abyss, seemingly containing some kind of terrifying magic.
His golden armor radiated a dazzling light, with mysterious patterns lighting up on it and releasing boundless spiritual energy fluctuations, making him seem as if he were bathed in divine radiance.
"Boom!" A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth, and an immense, boundless power erupted. A colossal golden lion appeared above Gu Yifeng's head, its body shrouded in endless golden divine light, like a true lion god descending to earth, majestic and inviolable.
This golden lion was as large as a mountain, radiating endless divine light. A terrifying aura swept out, and the void around Gu Yifeng twisted wildly. Thick spatial chains appeared and wrapped around the golden lion.
As the golden lion roared, the spatial chains tightened instantly, binding the golden lion and rendering it unable to move.
"It's over." A faint smile appeared on Yuan Qiankun's lips. He wanted to see how this guy would break free of these spatial chains.
Gu Yifeng looked up at the golden lion in the sky, his pupils narrowing slightly. The beast's aura was much stronger than before, obviously because it had just absorbed a Saint Source Stone; otherwise, it would have been impossible for it to break through.
Gu Yifeng knew that the current situation was extremely difficult and that a quick victory was necessary. Therefore, he chose to fight desperately and burn his Emperor Soul.
"Buzz." An incredibly terrifying wave emanated from Gu Yifeng's body. His body surface faintly glowed with a pale blue hue, as transparent as if it were cast from crystal. Strands of divine light surged into his body, and his temperament suddenly underwent a tremendous change. His aura rose steadily, and an unparalleled aura of the Great Dao was released from his body.
"This is..." The crowd's hearts clenched violently, and they felt a chill rise from the soles of their feet to their hearts. They seemed to be witnessing something unbelievable.
"What's going on? How can his aura be so strong?"
Yuan Qiankun also showed a puzzled expression. He clearly felt that Gu Yifeng's aura was far beyond the second level of the Yuanhuang realm, even surpassing his own third level. This was too strange.
"Look at the spear in his hand! It looks like a celestial weapon!" one of the prodigies exclaimed, pointing at the silver-white spear in Gu Yifeng's hand, his voice filled with awe.
At this moment, a storm raged in his heart. Who exactly was this person? How could someone at the mere second level of the Yuanhuang realm possess a celestial-grade treasure?
"A Celestial-level treasure?" Upon hearing this, the others froze, their hearts filled with shock once again. Their gazes toward Gu Yifeng were filled with intense greed. He actually possessed a Celestial-level treasure.
This is a priceless treasure that countless martial artists dream of. He actually possesses a celestial weapon; he is incredibly wealthy.
"If I obtain that treasure, I will have the opportunity to reach the fifth level of the Yuanhuang realm. In the future, no one in the Eight Desolate City will be able to compete with me!" A person at the fourth level of the Yuanhuang realm had a burning gaze, as if he had seen a glimmer of hope.
When the others heard his words, they all turned to look at him with disdain. It was simply wishful thinking. Such a treasure was not something an ordinary person could control. Perhaps only beings at the seventh-order Demon Emperor realm or above could do it.
Gu Yifeng's eyes swept indifferently over the crowd below. The moment he saw their expressions, he immediately understood. So that's how it is. These people really weren't here for the Sacred Source Stone.
His gaze shifted and landed on Yuan Ba: "You've only just entered the fourth level of the Yuan Emperor realm. You rely on external objects to improve your cultivation. What right do you have to claim supremacy?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Ba snorted coldly and said arrogantly, "The victor is king, the loser is villain. You are doomed today."
Having said that, he suddenly took a step forward, and the golden lion behind him roared to the sky. Instantly, an unparalleled aura spread out, causing the space to tremble as if it were about to collapse and shatter.
"Kill!" Yuan Ba roared, his right fist suddenly swung out, a terrifying golden fist imprint pierced through the void, carrying the aura of suppressing all heavens as it rushed towards Gu Yifeng. The sounds of dragon roars and tiger howls faintly echoed in the void, as if he could shatter the void with a single punch.
"Boom, boom, boom..." The sound of the void exploding one after another rang out, and endless radiance shone on Gu Yifeng's body, making his skin even more dazzling and charming, as if it were coated with a halo, dazzling and eye-catching, making people unable to look away. Many people stared at Gu Yifeng in a daze, as if they had fallen into some special state, and the desires in their hearts swelled even more.
Yuan Ba stared at Gu Yifeng, somewhat surprised. What was the background of this young man, that he was so extraordinary?
Suddenly, he noticed Gu Yifeng's eyes. A purple-gold glint flashed in those dark eyes, which was extremely eerie. He was stunned for a moment, but quickly regained his composure and just glanced at Gu Yifeng without paying any attention.
His attention was completely focused on the long spear in Gu Yifeng's hand. This was an Emperor-grade treasure!
Gu Yifeng actually possesses an Emperor-grade treasure?
Thinking of this, a hint of jealousy appeared in Yuan Ba's eyes. Such treasures were precious even in the Nine Domains, and some ordinary people would never see them in their entire lives. Yet this guy possessed two of them. It was simply a waste of such a treasure.
