As Tai'a Yu Bai continued to delve deeper into his thoughts, various ideas surged forth like a tidal wave.
His brows furrowed and relaxed at times, as if he were weighing the pros and cons.
Finally, after a fierce internal struggle, his expression became extremely solemn and serious, and his resolute gaze stared straight at Yuan Zhexian without the slightest hesitation.
He bent his knees and knelt on one knee, his voice loud and firm as he declared, "I, Tai'a Yu Bai, am willing to follow the Yuan Clan's divine son, Yuan Zhe Xian, today! If I am even slightly disloyal or unjust, or harbor any disloyal intentions, may Heaven punish me, annihilate me, and condemn me to eternal damnation!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian's lips curled up slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.
He turned to look at Yuan Haoran and the others beside him and said loudly, "Brother Haoran, Brother Ruochu, Jingtian, Brother Ziyu, and Yichen, you all quickly go with Yu Bai and annihilate those Great Saint Realm Ninth Rank experts in one fell swoop!"
Upon hearing the order, the men's eyes lit up with excitement, and they rubbed their hands together, eager to try.
Since stepping onto this mysterious and unpredictable Imperial Road, the fighting spirit in everyone's hearts has burned ever brighter, like a flame that has been ignited.
They constantly yearn to engage in a thrilling battle with opponents of high cultivation and great strength.
Only through such life-or-death combat can one's cultivation level advance by leaps and bounds.
At the same time, they can discover their shortcomings in actual combat and gain more valuable combat experience to make up for their weaknesses.
Just then, a whooshing sound came from afar.
In the blink of an eye, seven figures appeared abruptly before everyone like ghosts.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be seven powerful experts at the ninth level of the Great Saint Realm who had suddenly appeared.
Each of them possessed a powerful aura, their bodies surging with spiritual energy, like unshakeable mountains, giving people an endless sense of pressure.
At this moment, seven individuals of different backgrounds appeared at this location.
Upon seeing Yuan Zhexian, the atmosphere instantly became tense.
When those few powerful cultivators at the ninth level of the Great Saint Realm among the human race saw Yuan Zhexian, their originally indifferent eyes revealed a hint of undisguised pleasure.
Immediately afterwards, one of the human race's ninth-level Great Saint Realm experts stepped forward and said, "I am an elder of the Qingyang Sect. I hope that the Yuan Clan's Divine Son will not interfere in this matter."
“As long as the Yuan Clan’s divine son is willing to stay out of this, I will definitely repay you a great favor in the future.”
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian's lips curled up slightly, and he smiled disdainfully before replying, "Oh? Returning a favor to me? You think you're worthy?"
"You are human beings, yet you have lost your minds because of the precious pill, and have slaughtered your own kind. You are a disgrace to humanity!"
The elder of the Qingyang Clan, after being rebuked by Yuan Zhexian, immediately turned grim. However, he still suppressed his anger and said, "The Great Dao is elusive and difficult to find. If we cultivators wish to advance further, some sacrifices are inevitable."
"Besides, everything we do is in pursuit of a higher realm, so what's wrong with that?"
Then, he changed the subject, continuing, "Moreover, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with your Yuan Clan's Divine Son. The only reason I've been polite to you is because of your status as the Yuan Clan's Divine Son. If it weren't for that reason, hmph..."
However, before the elder of the Qingyang clan could finish speaking, Yuan Zhexian was too lazy to waste another word with him.
He turned to look at Yuan Haoran beside him and gave the order without hesitation: "Kill them!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a gust of wind howled past, and Yuan Haoran and the other six moved with lightning speed, instantly surrounding the seven people.
This sudden turn of events startled those surrounded, but before they could react, Tai'a Yu Bai stepped forward and declared loudly, "Brother Haoran and all my brothers, leave these two humans to me to kill!"
Yuan Haoran nodded slightly in agreement.
He knew that Tai'a Yu Bai was exceptionally strong, having already reached the sixth level of the Great Saint Realm and possessing the terrifying Extreme Reverse Demon Body.
Unless he encounters an invincible forbidden expert of the same level, a typical ninth-level Great Saint Realm expert would be no match for Tai'a Yu Bai.
Upon receiving permission, a hint of excitement flashed in Tai'a Yu Bai's eyes. He clenched his fists tightly, and a powerful aura emanated from his body.
Meanwhile, the others also found their opponents, and a fierce battle broke out.
As soon as the two sides clashed, sparks flew and energy surged everywhere.
However, as time went on, the seven Great Saint Realm experts gradually sensed that something was amiss.
Although they were all top experts at the ninth level of the Great Saint Realm, they were unable to defeat this group of enemies who were only at the first or second level of the Great Saint Realm for a while.
One of the Great Saints, a ninth-level expert from the myriad races of ferocious beasts, roared in astonishment, "What kind of geniuses and prodigies are you? How could you possibly contend with us to this extent with such a low cultivation level!"
Yuan Haoran and his group remained silent, but their hands did not stop moving for a moment.
They mobilized their immense and vast Great Saint power, like surging waves, and launched an even more fierce and ferocious attack on the Great Saint level nine expert of the ferocious beast race!
Meanwhile, time quietly slipped by.
With his unparalleled and powerful Extreme Reverse Demon Body, Tai'a Yu Bai successfully killed two human Great Saint Realm Ninth Rank experts in the fierce battle.
Immediately afterwards, he flashed and appeared behind Yuan Zhexian like a ghost.
He stared coldly at the breathtaking battle unfolding before him and asked, "Divine Child, should I step forward to assist them?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Zhexian shook his head and said, "There are roughly four ways to break through the current limitations of your realm."
"Firstly, it is through long-term, persistent accumulation and refinement that one can continuously strengthen one's own foundation and then find an opportunity for breakthrough."
"Secondly, it is the arrival of an extremely rare opportunity, which allows one to soar to new heights and achieve a breakthrough."
"Thirdly, it is to personally experience the ultimate feeling between life and death, thereby breaking through oneself on the edge of life and death."
"As for this last one... it is like this moment, engaging in thrilling life-or-death battles with opponents of the same or even greater strength, deeply understanding one's own shortcomings in the process of fighting, and using this as a breakthrough point to ultimately achieve enlightenment through battle and successfully break through."
At this point, Yuan Zhexian narrowed his eyes slightly, a barely perceptible smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"And on this path to the throne, which is full of countless unknown dangers and opportunities, the breakthrough method I have chosen for them is to break through through battle and to experience life and death in the midst of life and death in order to complete the breakthrough."
