667: Great War Emperor Five Nights
After his Breakthrough, Yang Lingchen walked out of the cave feeling refreshed and flew towards the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
Now that his cultivation level had reached the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm, the saint yin pill was no longer as important to him.
The most urgent task was to return to the Heavenly Dao Alliance to stabilize his cultivation. After all, having just broken through, he needed some time to consolidate it before he could unleash his full Combat Power.
"Whoosh!"
Just then, a dazzling rainbow of light streaked across the sky, instantly blocking Yang Lingchen's path.
"Heaven truly helps me!" A sharp glint flashed in Di Wuye's deep eyes, revealing a hint of surprise.
He had originally thought this trip to the Northwest would end in failure, but never did he expect to encounter another dao body on his way back. Most importantly, the opponent's cultivation level was only at the Early Stage of the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm. To him, this was absolutely Heaven-Defying good news.
As long as he devoured Yang Lingchen, he was confident he could push his own cultivation to the Peak of the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm. By then, even when facing a powerful figure at the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Dao Extreme Realm, he would have the strength to put up a fight.
"Di Wuye, you don't actually think you've won, do you?" Yang Lingchen sneered, his tone full of disdain.
If he had encountered Di Wuye before his Breakthrough, he would have had no chance of survival.
But now that he had reached the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm, even if he still wasn't Di Wuye's match, if he wanted to run, the other party might not necessarily be able to catch him.
"Stinky brat, to dare speak such words in front of This Young Master shows just how ignorant you are!"
A cold light flashed in Di Wuye's eyes. His figure moved like a ghost, instantly rushing towards Yang Lingchen.
The moment he struck, a power that seemed to destroy everything pressed down upon Yang Lingchen.
As a top-tier Genius Prodigy of the Realm of the Gods, Di Wuye's strength was unquestionable. Even when facing many powerhouses at the Peak of the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm, he could easily defeat them.
A grave expression flashed in Yang Lingchen's eyes. Di Wuye's strength and talent were undoubtedly the most Heaven-Defying among all the Geniuses he had ever encountered in his life.
Therefore, as soon as Yang Lingchen made his move, he unleashed his strongest power.
He swung his haotian cudgel violently, and an invisible staff energy carved a beautiful arc in the air, as if it were about to destroy the very heavens and earth.
"Boom!"
The two terrifying energies collided, emitting a deafening roar.
Under the impact of this powerful energy, Yang Lingchen's figure was like a bolt of lightning, instantly sent flying backward.
"Di Wuye, you are nothing special. When we meet again, I will surely take your head."
With a flicker of his figure, Yang Lingchen utilized the force of the recoil to instantly vanish into the horizon, his speed so fast it was staggering.
"Wanting to escape in front of This Young Master is simply a fantasy."
Di Wuye snorted coldly, his figure instantly transforming into a ray of white light, rapidly shooting after Yang Lingchen.
Both of their speeds had reached the extreme, not inferior even to those top-tier powerful figures of the Realm of the Gods.
Although Yang Lingchen had pushed his speed to the limit, Di Wuye behind him kept up relentlessly, and the distance was gradually closing.
Seeing this, Yang Lingchen directly activated his Space Martial Skill, and his figure instantly vanished into the void.
To completely shake off Di Wuye's pursuit, Yang Lingchen released hundreds of Yin Souls, all fleeing in different directions to confuse Di Wuye's pursuit.
Sure enough, the moment the Yin Souls appeared, Yang Lingchen used the yellow springs diagram to completely mask his own aura.
At that moment, Di Wuye's Face became incredibly ugly because Yang Lingchen's aura had completely vanished, replaced by the auras of hundreds of Yin Souls, leaving him with no way to pursue.
"Stinky brat, This Young Master will remember you." A cold, icy light flickered in Di Wuye's eyes. "No matter where you flee, This Young Master will find you."
By now, Yang Lingchen had already escaped hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.
"Pfft...!"
Yang Lingchen spat out a mouthful of blood, his Face full of relief. If he hadn't learned the Space Martial Skill, he likely would have been captured by Di Wuye this time.
After that collision, he realized that there was still a huge gap between his strength and Di Wuye's.
Once one reached the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm, the gap between every small Realm became an insurmountable chasm.
Even an Invincible Level Cultivator like Yang Lingchen could at most defeat a Cultivator at the Middle Stage of the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm. If he encountered a Genius of the same level as Di Wuye, wanting to achieve a Cross-Rank Challenge would be extremely difficult.
After all, both of them cultivated in the Haotian Realm, and both were dao bodies of Yang Haotian, so it was very hard for Yang Lingchen to gain an advantage in terms of Cross-Rank Challenge.
"It seems I must find a way to raise my cultivation level quickly." Yang Lingchen thought to himself.
After this encounter with Di Wuye, Yang Lingchen's desire for strength reached its peak once again.
Having just broken through to the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm, he needed to consolidate well.
Yang Lingchen knew that defeating Di Wuye would be extremely difficult.
Because while he was improving his cultivation, Di Wuye was also improving.
Therefore, to defeat the other party, he had to put in more effort and pay a higher price than the other party.
Time flew by, and another half month passed. On this day, Yang Lingchen finally returned to the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
After submitting his mission, Yang Lingchen finally obtained the opportunity to challenge the Core Disciple status.
Although he had already broken through to the Heavenly Dao Ultimate Realm, the saint yin pill still had some use for him, so he had to win the championship of the Core Disciple Grand Competition.
In order to avoid attracting attention while winning the championship, Yang Lingchen displayed his cultivation level as the Fourth Level of the Heavenly Dao Realm.
"Stinky brat! How did you Cultivate?" Upon seeing Yang Lingchen again, a look of surprise appeared in Lin Muya's eyes.
"It is all thanks to Revered Master's teachings that my cultivation has been able to improve so quickly." Yang Lingchen quickly flattered her.
"Stinky brat, stop the flattery. Are you still hiding your cultivation?" Lin Muya asked.
For an average person to Cultivate from the Fourth Level of the Heavenly Dao Realm to the Fourth Level of the Heavenly Dao Realm would take at least millions of years. Even those Heaven-Defying Prodigies would need decades to make such a Breakthrough.
And Yang Lingchen had gone from the Fourth Level of the Heavenly Dao Realm to the Seventh Level of the Heavenly Dao Realm in just a few months; naturally, she didn't believe it.
"That's not the case. The reason I broke through so quickly is mainly because of my extraordinary talent, coupled with your excellent guidance." Yang Lingchen said with a smile; naturally, he wouldn't tell the truth.
"Yang Lingchen, with your current cultivation, you are indeed qualified to participate in the Core Disciple assessment. However, winning the championship of the Core Disciple Grand Competition might still be difficult." Lin Muya said.
"Revered Master, there are still two months until the Grand Competition! With your guidance, winning the championship is just a matter of reaching out and taking it." Yang Lingchen teased.
"If you can really win the championship, I guarantee you will be able to get the saint yin pill." A hint of brilliance appeared in Lin Muya's eyes.
If Yang Lingchen could truly win the Core Disciple championship, it would be a good thing for Lin Muya, who had valued Face since she was young. After all, Yang Lingchen would be winning the title as her Disciple.
Subsequently, Lin Muya brought Yang Lingchen to the assessment hall.
"Muya, girl, why are you here?"
An Elder with white hair and beard, a thick aura, and deep eyes that revealed a hint of wisdom spoke.
This white-haired and bearded Elder was none other than the Heavenly Dao Alliance's assessment Elder, Sun Hongda.
"Elder Sun, this is my Disciple, Yang Lingchen. His merit points are sufficient, so he is here to participate in the Core Disciple assessment." Lin Muya, acting cute and charming, sat down casually in the seat beside them.
