Chapter 12 Celestial Phenomena

"Just a bit more, the pressure from the Sword Transformation Pool has become almost insignificant to me; my meridians and flesh have already adapted to this kind of pressure. To break through to the Twelfth Layer of the Breath Realm, I'm just a bit short!" Xu Ping'an cried out in frustration within his heart.

He desired to stimulate the Qi-Blood within his body to break the barrier of the Third Layer of Extreme Realm, but he was still some distance away.

This left Xu Ping'an feeling extremely unwilling!

Without the Sword Transformation Pool, his effort to break through the Extreme Realm would become even more difficult.

"Huh?"

Just then, Xu Ping'an felt the sound of footsteps behind him.

Turning his head to look, it was an Inner Sect Disciple of the Beichen Sword Sect, someone he did not recognize, but looked somewhat familiar.

Their cultivation was not high, only at the First Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm.

Such strength now posed no threat to him.

"Xu Ping'an, give me back my brother's life!" Li Tianyuan's eyes turned blood red the moment he saw Xu Ping'an.

He immediately threw a Bone Dissolving Pill into the Sword Pool.

The elixir immediately melted, and the terrifying toxicity surged directly toward Xu Ping'an.

"Eh, this is... intense poison!" Xu Ping'an's expression changed, and then he was overjoyed in his heart.

He had been worrying that the pressure on his physical body and bones was not enough, who would have thought that this guy in front of him would throw in a potent poison pill?

Wasn't this like going to sleep and having someone hand you a pillow?

Thus, Xu Ping'an did not hesitate to immediately run the Chaotic Reversal Scripture.

He hoped to use this to breakthrough the barrier of the Third Layer of Extreme Realm in one fell swoop.

"Haha, Xu Ping'an, this is a Second Rank Superior Grade Poison Pill, the Bone Dissolving Pill. Within the time it takes an incense stick to burn, your bones will melt, and you will be completely reduced to bloody water, you killed my brother Li Qing, you deserve to die!"

Li Tianyuan laughed wildly, his facial expression exceptionally ferocious.

So it was Li Qing's brother!

Xu Ping'an's heart instantly understood.

However, he did not stop; by this time, the poison pill had already taken effect.

His flesh and bones began to disintegrate.

The Chaotic Reversal Scripture could devour all the potent poisons in the world.

This Bone Dissolving Pill was not only not toxic to him but instead a precious medicine.

"Keep talking, don't stop!" Xu Ping'an whispered to himself with a light chuckle in his heart.

He was now only one step away from breaking through the Third Layer of the Extreme Realm.

He certainly didn't want Li Tianyuan to interrupt and ruin his great opportunity.

Li Tianyuan did not disappoint him, continuing to mutter to himself:

"Haha, Xu Ping'an, do you know, my ability to enter here this time is all thanks to Brother Wang Tianyu's help. You've unwittingly offended Wang Tianyu, and Brother Wang is someone close to the young marquis. The token I used to enter this place was granted by the young marquis himself. It seems the young marquis also wants you dead!"

In his eyes, Xu Ping'an was already a dead man.

Even if he knew all this, what could he do?

"So it's Wang Tianyu again!"

A strong murderous intent surged in Xu Ping'an's heart in an instant.

This Wang Tianyu must be killed!

And this young marquis, meddling over and over again, do they actually think he is an insect to be slaughtered at will?

But right now, he was about to breakthrough.

At this moment, the Qi-Blood in his body was already starting to break the shackles, reaching the legendary Third Layer of the Extreme Realm.

In three more breaths, he would be able to break through the legendary barrier of Extreme Realm and advance to the legendary Realm.

"You're not dead?"

Li Tianyuan looked down at Xu Ping'an, staring for quite a while, and noticed that this fellow showed no signs of his flesh and bones melting, which made him frown.

Could the Bone Dissolving Pill given to him by Wang Tianyu be fake?

Impossible! It was clearly a Second Rank Superior Grade elixir, the Bone Dissolving Pill. How could this fellow show no reaction?

At this moment, he should be screaming in agony!

"No good, can't wait any longer. Since the pill is ineffective, it's time to take action and kill him!" A hint of ruthless light flashed through Li Tianyuan's eyes.

He then drew out a long sword and thrust it out, with fierce Sword Radiance, stabbing toward Xu Ping'an.

"Break!"

Xu Ping'an suddenly opened his eyes, and his body emitted a faint golden light.

A tremendously powerful aura erupted from him all at once.

This aura was extremely terrifying, like a dragon roaring.

Li Tianyuan, who was charging at him, was startled.

He felt as if his throat was suddenly seized, and he shook with fear.

How... How is this possible?

What realm is this?

How can there be such a terrifying Qi-Blood!

Is it actually more than ten times scarier than my Sea-Splitting Realm, First Layer?

Li Tianyuan was truly terrified, feeling as if he was facing an ancient beast of immense size.

That trembling fear came from deep within his bloodline.

"You think you can kill me? You're courting death!" Xu Ping'an bellowed.

He threw a punch, and the Qi-Blood surged like a river.

The iron sword in Li Tianyuan's hand was directly shattered, and the punch landed on his chest.

The chest burst open, a blur of flesh and blood.

"Boom!"

His body flew backward, crashing against the distant mountain wall.

Li Tianyuan fell heavily, a huge hole in his chest. His internal organs were nearly ruptured, and he was on the brink of death.

Xu Ping'an leaped out of the water, his aura dragon-like, his body emitting a faint golden color, his strength astonishingly impressive.

"Is this the legendary Qi and Blood Realm, Twelfth Layer? Marrow like mercury, blood like gold, indeed, so strong; in terms of combat power, probably not inferior to the Sea-Splitting Realm, Fourth Layer!"

Xu Ping'an was ecstatic in his heart.

The breakthrough to the Extreme Realm, Third Layer, was not just an increase in combat power.

This will play a huge role in his future cultivation.

Xu Ping'an glanced at Li Tianyuan, who was now not far from death.

He could not be bothered with him and walked straight to the Sword Transformation Pool.

...

At the very moment that Xu Ping'an broke through to the Extreme Realm, Third Layer.

Above Beichen Sword Sect's sky, suddenly numerous pale golden auspicious clouds appeared.

The auspicious clouds covered the heavens, shrouding the entire Beichen Sword Sect.

Everyone was astonished and looked at this scene with shock on their faces.

A celestial phenomenon?

Who on earth caused this celestial phenomenon to appear?

The Inner Sect Elders and elite elders all came out one after another.

Even atop the highest peak of the Beichen Sword Sect, a figure stood above the great hall, looking at the celestial phenomenon with surprise.

"The legendary golden auspicious clouds? Has someone broken through the legendary Extreme Realm of the Qi and Blood Realm? Could it be a member of my Beichen Sword Sect?" The figure above the great hall murmured to himself, looking at the golden clouds above.

It had been thousands of years since anyone had broken through the legendary Extreme Realm.

Now, such a genius had finally appeared, and within his Beichen Sword Sect—did this signify that their Beichen Sword Sect was on the rise?

In fact, not just the entire Beichen Sword Sect, but everyone in the entire Tianlong River Basin saw this phenomenon, and they were all incredibly surprised.

A celestial omen, the birth of a genius.

A genius has emerged from the Beichen Sword Sect!

At the same time, within a luxurious courtyard of the Inner Sect.

A young man in a Golden Python Robe looked up at the sky, surprise in his eyes.

"Did my breakthrough to the Sea-Splitting Realm, Eighth Layer, cause this celestial phenomenon?" the opulent young man hesitated.

"Congratulations to Young Lord on your breakthrough, attracting a celestial phenomenon. It seems that Young Lord is the chosen one, destined to become a powerful ruler," Sword Servant Chen Wanshan immediately said.

"Congratulations to Young Lord on your breakthrough, attracting a celestial phenomenon." The other Inner Sect Disciples also congratulated him.

Upon hearing this, the young man in the Golden Python Robe burst into laughter:

"I, Chen Tianqing, am truly favored by destiny. Just a breakthrough in realm, and it brings about a celestial phenomenon. Even heaven thinks I'm a genius!"
