Chapter 464: Chapter 470: Clashing with the Mahayana Phase! (First update)
Everyone was dumbfounded, standing still, so stunned that they didn’t even notice the bodies of the Saint and the two tribal elders falling to the ground.
Yang Zhen was a man on fire, chasing countless Death Zys in mid-air. What was shocking was that the Death Zys were emitting terrified shrieks, fearing being engulfed by Yang Zhen’s flames.
Soon, people noticed something different. The Death Zys burned by Yang Zhen were different from those burned by others – the remains of the others fell to the ground as corpses without being destroyed, while for Yang Zhen, there were no bodies left at all, they were all turned into ashes.
Wherever Yang Zhen passed, enormous fire waves roared. When the Death Zys were burned to death in groups, they turned into a misty pure energy. In the beginning, everyone didn’t react, but when they did, they were shocked.
“My God, what is that!”
“It looks like a kind of energy, but…why do I sense the presence of Void Power in these energies?”
“Impossible, if it were Void Power, Yang Zhen would have been dead by now. Moreover, how could these Death Zys possibly possess Void Power?”
“Indeed, if these Death Zys possessed Void Power, wouldn’t we already be dead?”
…
Everyone was debating, expressing their own opinions. Regardless of their attitudes, they all envied the terrifying pure energy around Yang Zhen.
But at that moment, no matter how envious they were, no one dared to rush up.
No matter how many Practitioners, no matter how many Death Zys they killed, none of them released even a bit of Void Power. Clearly, only Yang Zhen knew how to do it.
Everyone watched Yang Zhen in the sky with faces full of envy, some even feeling the world was unfair. Why was it Yang Zhen who came up with this method, and why did the Death Zys seem oblivious to his presence? They seemed to treat Yang Zhen like a natural disaster, scrambling to avoid him.
This created the scene of Yang Zhen wildly chasing after the Death Zys!
“How…how much luck must one possess to gain such a great fortune? Could Yang Zhen be a Chosen One of Destiny?”
“If Yang Zhen is the Chosen One of Destiny, then this Chosen One is a bit too cheap!”
“I still feel that this is Void Power. Damn it… I once accidentally entered a place filled with Void Power. Despite being hundreds of steps away, I was almost pulled into the Void and could barely escape. I can’t be wrong… The energy Yang Zhen is absorbing and refining, it is indeed Void Power.”
“What?”
Hearing that, everyone was shocked. They looked at Yang Zhen in mid-air, horrified. “Could it really be Void Power? But why can Yang Zhen absorb Void Power? Isn’t Void Power one of the most difficult abilities to control?”
Someone suddenly remembered something and exclaimed: “Void Power, back in the Ice Palace Cluster, Yang Zhen had tried to refine Void Power, but he failed. Could it be… could it be that he didn’t fail at that time?”
“This friend is too worrying, I was there at that time, and Yang Zhen did fail. The Void Power disappeared before all of us. It was not a deceit!”
Upon hearing this, everyone exhaled in relief.
As for why they were relieved was a mystery to everyone, maybe it was because they were comfortable with the thought that Yang Zhen had failed in refining the Void Power.
But what was happening right now?
If Yang Zhen didn’t refine the Void Power in the Ice Palace Cluster, then what was he doing now?
Boom!
Just then, an elder suddenly leapt into the air, bursting into terrifying flames, rushing towards the sky, and arrived in front of Yang Zhen, staring at him in disbelief.
“It’s the Supreme Elder of the Grizzly Clan; I didn’t expect that the first one to lose patience would be the Grizzly Clan’s Supreme Elder.”
“The Supreme Elder is a Mahayana Phase practitioner, is he also interested in Void Power?”
“Bullshit, what practitioner in the world isn’t interested in Void Power? Besides, the Grizzly Clan and the Ke Clan have been allies for generations. Yang Zhen killed Lin, the Saint, and the Elder of the two clans; how could the Grizzly Clan’s Supreme Elder not be angry?”
“Shush, fellow Daoists, that’s incorrect. The Saint Lin and the Elders of the two clans clearly entered the Death Zy group on their own accord. How can you blame Yang Zhen for their deaths? Be careful what you say.”
Everyone watched in horror as the Grizzly Clan’s Supreme Elder charged into the sky, their faces filled with uncertainty. Even Elder Qian frowned and murmured, “What on earth does this old man Lu Qiju want to do?”
The Thousand-Spirit Saintess furrowed her brows slightly, then looked up and asked, “Elder Qian, what’s the chance for Yang Zhen to survive against the hands of the Grizzly Clan’s Supreme Elder?”
“According to Yang Zhen’s currently demonstrated strength, he has no chance for survival!” Elder Qian solemnly said, “But even though a Mahayana Phase expert is terrifying, Yang Zhen isn’t completely without a chance for survival. If he can catch up with the Death Zy, he might be able to use them to restrain Lu Qiju.”
Upon hearing Elder Qian’s words, the Thousand-Spirit Saintess looked at Yang Zhen, who seemed clueless about Lu Qiju, with a curious glance.
Hua Youyue looked up and the Moon Shadow in her hand began to softly hum, like a returning phoenix.
Han Yan’er huffed and was about to leap up with the Sun Shadow in hand, but Hua Youyue stopped her, saying, “Yang Zhen is fine!”
“But… that’s a Mahayana Phase master!” Han Yan’er gave Hua Youyue a strange look.
Hua Youyue nodded and asked Han Yan’er, “If you were to face a Mahayana Phase master now, what’s your chance of survival?”
At the question, Han Yan’er paused, glanced at the smiling Elder Qian, and shook her head, “About 30%!”
“What?” Elder Qian was shocked at her words and looked at Han Yan’er incredulously.
A young girl who had just crossed the Tribulation Phase, facing a Mahayana Phase master, actually had a 30% chance of survival?
This… this was simply incredible!
Elder Qian shook his head with a smile, sighing secretly. Clearly, Han Yan’er had no idea how powerful a Mahayana Phase master truly was.
Even with Elder Qian’s current strength, any amount of Tribulation Phase masters couldn’t exert any pressure on him. That’s how powerful Mahayana Phase masters were.
If crossing the Tribulation Phase marked a practitioner’s confrontation with destiny, then Mahayana Phase was the first level that couldn’t be broken through simply by having plenty of True Essence.
The so-called Mahayana was a state—a state of comprehending and combining, becoming completely proficient.
Any martial skill, as long it was mastered in the Mahayana Phase, would have reached perfection. It was worldly apart from the Tribulation Phase masters who could just barely use the martial skills.
Everyone looked towards the sky in terror. From the flame conditions on Yang Zhen and the Grizzly Clan’s Supreme Elder, they could feel that the two weren’t on the same level at all.
Although the flames on Yang Zhen’s body were strange, it was clear that they were being forced out, while the flames on Lu Qiju’s body were quite different. They seemed to naturally seep out from his body and burn around him.
Achieving perfection!
At this moment, Yang Zhen glanced at Lu Qiju with a surprised expression, absorbed the last bit of power, which was a pure energy loaded with Void Power, into his body, and asked with a grin, “What does the elder have to teach me?”
Lu Qiju hummed coldly, clearly not considering Yang Zhen a threat. He spoke up, “Tell me the method of refining Death Zy!”
At these words, the expressions of everyone present changed dramatically.
