Inside the Small Cave Heaven.
The sword light shone brilliantly.
An ancient longsword transformed into a vast, primordial divine mountain, radiating an immense saintly aura, like a surging sea of waves, sweeping in all directions.
This was the manifestation of sword intent.
Incredibly terrifying!
Before the sword, a towering, immortal figure emerged from the void, standing high in the clouds. Its presence was mighty, like a true immortal king!
This figure exuded an air of dominance, gazing down at everything from the past to the present, one man suppressing the ages, looking down upon the Nine Heavens. The sight was so awe-inspiring that it stripped the world of all color.
“Shit!”
At the foot of the mountain,
Yang Qiu looked up at the sky, his face filled with shock.
“Da Luo Sect Master, Ren Qingtu!”
“When did he arrive?”
Yang Qiu was about to go crazy. He had been so close to becoming a Saint himself, but now, it seemed someone else had already beaten him to it!
Could it be...?
He glanced again at the formation on the mountaintop.
Yang Qiu's face flushed red, his anger rising like flames. It didn't take him long to figure out what had happened.
The last formation was not left behind by an ancient saint at all.
It was deliberately set by Ren Qingtu.
He had placed this formation to block Yang Qiu's path.
And Yang Qiu, foolishly, had broken the formation!
If he had forcefully shattered the formation earlier, he might have been able to stop Ren Qingtu's breakthrough, but now, it was too late.
Ren Qingtu had already become a Saint!
“Liu Chengxue!!!”
Yang Qiu forced out the words with great difficulty.
He would never forget why he had come to the Great Wasteland City and why he had met the Lord of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower.
Everything was related to his disciple.
And Liu Chengxue, as Ren Qingtu's disciple,
It made sense that Ren Qingtu would appear in the Great Wasteland City.
Perhaps,
Ren Qingtu had purchased information from a senior, and thus had rushed here to become a Saint before Yang Qiu.
“I miscalculated!”
Yang Qiu muttered, his eyes vacant.
He had calculated everything, but he had missed Liu Chengxue in the process.
If only he had entered the formation without doing anything and first gathered the most important resources, perhaps now he would have already become a Saint!
Thinking of this,
Yang Qiu's heart bled.
“Ren Qingtu has become a Saint. It's no longer safe here. If he wakes up and discovers my presence...”
Yang Qiu shivered.
The Nine Nether Demon Sect and the Da Luo Sword Sect were mortal enemies. While they were in the same rank before, it was fine, but if it came to a fight, he would not be afraid.
If he couldn't win, at least he could escape.
But now, things were different.
Ren Qingtu had become a Saint, and with just a glance, he could probably severely injure him.
He had no chance against Ren Qingtu!
“I will buy another chance to become a Saint and settle this matter with you in the future!”
Yang Qiu growled lowly,
Then quickly turned and left.
At the Moment of Ren Qingtu's Breakthrough.
For millions of miles around the Hundred-Strike Mountain Range, countless cultivators were nervously watching.
Chi Yan Sacred Land.
This was a Sacred Land not far from the Hundred-Strike Mountain Range.
Chi Yan Saint Lord, wearing a red robe, his hair and brows like flickering flames, emitted a scorching aura that distorted the void around him.
He stood with his hands behind his back, gazing solemnly in the direction of the Hundred-Strike Mountain Range.
“Da Luo Sword Intent!”
Chi Yan Saint Lord murmured, “Is that Ren Qingtu?”
“Years ago, I fought him, and we were evenly matched. Never did I expect he would step into the Saint realm before me!”
“However...”
Chi Yan Saint Lord's eyes flickered as he observed the towering sword intent.
“A sect master, breaking through to the Saint realm, not within his sect, but in the wilderness... There's something fishy about this!”
This raised doubts.
Which sect master wouldn't prepare meticulously before breaking through to the Saint realm?
Not to mention the wilderness,
Even in their own sect, they would be concerned about insufficient protections. If someone interrupted their breakthrough, it could ruin their entire life.
At best, their cultivation would be wasted; at worst, their life would be lost.
Ren Qingtu had cultivated for over a thousand years, and he should have known this.
But even so, he chose to break through in the wilderness and successfully became a Saint. This was highly suspicious.
Typically, such a situation occurred when someone couldn't suppress their cultivation and had to break through immediately.
The only thing that could cause such uncontrollable growth was some kind of opportunity!
“Someone!”
Chi Yan Saint Lord said lightly.
“Saint Lord, what is your command?”
A shadowy figure appeared silently, drifting toward Chi Yan Saint Lord. The person was cloaked in mist, and upon arriving before the Saint Lord, he bowed respectfully.
“Go check around the Hundred-Strike Mountain Range. Find out what opportunity Ren Qingtu encountered. Report back to me immediately when you have any news!”
Chi Yan Saint Lord ordered.
“Yes!”
The shadow responded, then vanished on the spot.
“A chance that allows someone to rapidly enter the Saint realm... I'm very curious myself!”
Chi Yan Saint Lord gazed into the distance, a glint of longing in his eyes.
When geniuses are among their peers, it's one thing if they haven't broken through, but when someone surpasses everyone else, it becomes impossible for the others to stay calm.
Among geniuses, a single step ahead means an eternal advantage.
If they can't catch up in a short time, it will be impossible for them to do so for the rest of their lives.
The gap between them will only grow wider.
