171: Saint Realm, Eighth Level

"Yang Lingchen, if my cultivation level wasn't suppressed, I would have wiped you off the face of the earth long ago." Li Xinyi's expression was icy, and her voice was bone-chilling.

"Damn Old Hag, stop bragging! If you're so capable, stop suppressing it!"

Yang Lingchen mocked her mercilessly while frantically attacking with the immortal demon sword in his hand.

Yang Lingchen didn't harbor much fear for Li Xinyi.

He knew deeply that once she released her cultivation level suppression, she would immediately attract the Heavenly Tribulation.

At that point, she would have no choice but to leave the Tianwu Continent in a sorry state.

But if Li Xinyi didn't release her cultivation level suppression, wanting to kill him, Yang Lingchen, was nothing but a pipe dream.

"You're courting death!"

Li Xinyi snapped, fury surging in her beautiful eyes.

She lightly flicked the glittering battle sword in her hand, and the blade instantly erupted with an extremely brilliant light, like a gorgeous meteor, stabbing towards Yang Lingchen with the force of a thunderbolt.

"Boom, boom, boom...!"

Yang Lingchen did not retreat. He swung the immortal demon sword, instantly blocking Li Xinyi's incomparably sharp sword edge.

The two battle swords collided violently, producing a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering loud noise, deafening as if it were about to shatter this world.

Just then, a flash of light appeared in Yang Lingchen's eyes, a ruthless glint.

He instantly unleashed a Soul Devouring Slash, carrying endless evil power, which rushed swiftly towards Li Xinyi's Sea of Consciousness.

Li Xinyi's eyes stagnated for a moment, her consciousness appearing blank for a brief second.

Seeing this, Yang Lingchen naturally showed no mercy and slashed over with his sword.

However, just as Yang Lingchen had slashed out with the immortal demon sword, Li Xinyi had already recovered from that brief moment of distraction.

She reacted extremely quickly, swinging her battle sword instantly, precisely meeting Yang Lingchen's immortal demon sword.

"Clang... clang... clang..."

The battle swords collided, emitting sharp, grating clanging sounds.

Each collision between the two sent dazzling sparks flying, like brilliant fireworks in the night sky.

At this moment, the great war between humans and demons had entered a white-hot stage.

The battlefield was filled with smoke, and the scent of blood permeated the surroundings.

In the end, this cruel battle ended with a pyrrhic victory for the Human Race.

Countless heroic human Cultivators had heroically sacrificed their precious lives to protect their homeland.

Fortunately, all the Demon Race were completely slaughtered in this battle, with none escaping.

Although the Human Race had paid a heavy price, they had finally preserved the peace and tranquility of the Tianwu Continent.

Meanwhile, the battle between Yang Lingchen and Li Xinyi was still raging fiercely.

Their intense battle continued for three days and three nights.

In this long and intense battle, Li Xinyi felt incredibly stifled.

She was burning with rage and really wanted to directly release her cultivation level suppression, then kill Yang Lingchen in one go.

But she couldn't afford that risk, because she hadn't made sufficient preparations for Undergoing Tribulation.

Once she underwent the tribulation in a rush, it was very likely that she would fall under this terrifying Heavenly Tribulation.

Just then, relying on his keen combat intuition, Yang Lingchen seized a fleeting opportunity.

His left hand instantly struck out a Domain Breaking Fist, the Fist Aura descending like Mount Tai, slamming heavily towards Li Xinyi's chest.

Li Xinyi was not to be outdone. She lifted her jade leg, and that long, straight, beautiful leg kicked towards Yang Lingchen's crotch like lightning.

"Boom... boom... boom..."

"Ah... ah... ah..."

"scoundrel, you just wait!"

Li Xinyi was blasted by Yang Lingchen's astonishingly powerful punch, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood. Her delicate body flew backward like a kite with a broken string.

Landing on the ground, Li Xinyi's face was as pale as paper. She endured the surging Qi and blood in her body, her figure flickered a few times, and she instantly disappeared from the spot.

Yang Lingchen didn't have it easy either. Fortunately, at the critical moment, he used his trump card, the Shrinking Yang Technique, otherwise he would have really been "egg-shattered."

But even so, Yang Lingchen was kicked flying backward.

He only felt his whole head buzzing, as if countless bees were flying around his ears.

Yang Lingchen felt like the base of his thighs had exploded; the piercing pain made him unable to bear it, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead like rain.

Enduring the severe pain in his lower body, Yang Lingchen hurriedly rode his sword and fled in a panic towards the Southern Wilderness.

At this moment, he was actually a bit afraid that Li Xinyi would run back and fight him to the death.

After all, when that crazy woman went crazy, she was capable of anything.

Li Xinyi flew hundreds of kilometers away before finally finding a hidden cave. She stumbled into the cave and then, unable to hold on any longer, collapsed to the ground.

"Ah... it hurts so much, you bastard, I will definitely grind your bones to dust."

Looking at her originally flawless chest, which was now bruised and purple, and even somewhat deformed in some places, Li Xinyi's face turned livid with anger, and a fierce, incomparable light appeared in her beautiful eyes.

...

"Yang Lingchen, are you okay?"

Just as Yang Lingchen returned to the palace of the Lingchen Divine Kingdom, a gentle and concerned voice came over. Nangong Yan hurriedly walked over, her beautiful eyes full of worry.

"I'm... I'm fine! Just took a kick, that's all."

Yang Lingchen hunched his body, barely squeezing out a smile. Then he limped into the haotian jade space.

After these three days and nights of intense fighting, he was also seriously injured. At this moment, what he needed most was to heal his wounds as soon as possible and then refine that heavenly martial divine pearl.

As long as he could refine another heavenly martial divine pearl, Yang Lingchen had full confidence in raising his cultivation level by another two small Realms.

By then, if Li Xinyi came to cause trouble again, Yang Lingchen would have absolute certainty of beheading her.

Unless the other party directly released her cultivation level suppression and fought desperately regardless of the consequences, otherwise, she would definitely die.

As soon as Yang Lingchen entered the haotian jade space, a graceful figure greeted him.

"Yang Lingchen, are you okay!"

Yao Lingyu's crisp, sweet voice was full of concern and anxiety.

"I'm fine, Xiaoyu." Yang Lingchen said, enduring the pain on his body.

"What about the Demon Emperor?" Hatred shone in Yao Lingyu's eyes, a light that seemed capable of burning everything.

"He is already dead, forced by me to self-destruct." Yang Lingchen gently pulled Yao Lingyu into his arms, trying to give her some comfort.

"It's a pity I couldn't kill him myself to avenge my father."

Yao Lingyu bit her silver teeth tightly, her tone full of regret and unwillingness.

"You are my woman, it's the same if I kill him." Yang Lingchen gently stroked Yao Lingyu's smooth hair, his eyes full of love and pity.

"Do you really not mind that I am of the Yao Race?"

Yao Lingyu raised her head, staring intently at Yang Lingchen, her eyes full of expectation, as if she wanted to see a trace of hesitation or falsehood in his eyes.

"Of course not. In brother's heart, Xiaoyu is more beautiful and kinder than many Human Race women."

Yang Lingchen said with extreme seriousness, his gaze firm and sincere, without the slightest evasion.

"I want..."

Yao Lingyu finished speaking and closed her eyes: "Kiss me."

"Ahem..."

"Can we do it another day? Brother was kicked by an enemy here." Yang Lingchen said with a difficult expression, an awkward look on his face.

"Brother, you weren't kicked useless, were you!" Yao Lingyu said in surprise, her face full of worry.

"Not that bad, I'll be fine after resting for a few days." Yang Lingchen smiled awkwardly, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"That's good." Yao Lingyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her tense nerves relaxed a little.

"Xiaoyu, you rest for a while, brother will refine this heavenly martial divine pearl first."

After speaking, Yang Lingchen sat cross-legged, then carefully took out the heavenly martial divine pearl that was emitting a mysterious light, and swallowed it without hesitation.

Immediately, an incomparably pure Origin power spread crazily throughout his body.

"Ah... ah... ah..."

Yang Lingchen gritted his teeth, the muscles on his face twisted and distorted due to extreme pain, but he still let out painful screams.

Although this was the third time refining a heavenly martial divine pearl, that bone-deep, intense pain still made him feel like he was dying.

Soon, his body was filled with rich Origin energy, as if it were about to burst his body open.

Yang Lingchen endured the pain, operated the Vast Heaven Art, and began to frantically refine this Origin energy.

If he couldn't refine all of this Origin energy as soon as possible, he might die from an explosion because he couldn't bear this powerful force.

At this moment, Yang Lingchen.

The veins on his face bulged like winding green snakes. His eyes were filled with bloodshot streaks, looking exceptionally ferocious and terrifying. The sweat on his body also gushed out like a broken dam, instantly soaking his clothes.

But he was still gritting his teeth and persisting, while frantically operating the Vast Heaven Art Cultivation Technique.

"Boom... boom... boom..."

"Saint Realm 5th Layer."

In less than a cup of tea's time.

Yang Lingchen's cultivation level broke through to the Saint Realm 5th Layer like a rocket.

After breaking through to the Saint Realm 5th Layer, Yang Lingchen felt that the Origin power in his body was still very rich.

As long as he continued to refine it, breaking through to the Saint Realm 6th Layer should be a matter of course.

Yang Lingchen gritted his teeth and continued to refine the remaining Origin power in his body.

"Boom... boom... boom..."

"Saint Realm 6th Layer."

When Yang Lingchen successfully broke through to the Saint Realm 6th Layer, the Origin energy in his body was finally refined completely.

Feeling the powerful force in his body that was almost overflowing, Yang Lingchen's face was full of confident smiles.

As long as he met Li Xinyi again, even if she released her cultivation level suppression, he had enough confidence to remain invincible.

"Brother, I have one here too, do you want it?"

Yao Lingyu didn't know where she took out another crystal-clear heavenly martial divine pearl, which emitted a mysterious and alluring light.

"Want, of course I want it. Where did you get this?"

Shock appeared on Yang Lingchen's face; he didn't expect Yao Lingyu to have such a treasure.

"This is a sacred object passed down by our Yao Race. Father said that as long as we collect five, we can reorganize the Tianwu Continent. At that time, the martial arts rules of the Tianwu Continent can also be improved by one Rank, and everyone will no longer have to worry about the Extraterrestrial Demon Race descending again."

Yao Lingyu said slowly, her eyes full of expectation and longing for the future.

The Extraterrestrial Demon Race is an extremely special and terrifying race. They live in the Universe Void Realm, wandering around, looking for worlds that can be invaded.

Once a spatial rift appears in a plane, or the martial arts rules are incomplete, they will swarm like sharks smelling blood, descending upon this world, bringing endless disaster and destruction.

If Yang Lingchen could refine five heavenly martial divine pearls, then the Extraterrestrial Demon Race would never have a chance to invade the Tianwu Continent again. This continent would usher in long-lasting peace and tranquility.

Yang Lingchen solemnly took the heavenly martial divine pearl from Yao Lingyu's hand, and then concentrated on refining it again.

Adding Yao Lingyu's heavenly martial divine pearl, Yang Lingchen had already collected four heavenly martial divine pearls.

As long as he found the last heavenly martial divine pearl, he could cross the Half-step God Realm and directly break through to the God Entry Realm, becoming the unique, absolute god on this planet.

With the experience of the previous few refinements, this Breakthrough process was very smooth for Yang Lingchen.

"Boom... boom... boom..."

"Saint Realm 8th Layer."

At this moment, Yang Lingchen suddenly opened his eyes. An incomparably powerful Aura radiated from his body, an Aura so tangible that people dared not look directly at it.

"Xiaoyu, didn't you say you wanted to earlier? Come here!" A wicked smile appeared on Yang Lingchen's handsome face.

"Brother, you look so evil right now!" Yao Lingyu said coquettishly with a smile, but there was no fear in her smile, instead it was full of expectation and shyness.

"Evil? There's even more evil to come! Heh heh heh..." Yang Lingchen let out a wicked laugh and pounced over like a hungry tiger.

"Bad brother, don't..."
