Liuyun Star.
Whoosh.
The space above the bunker tore open, and the figure of a purple-robed elder walked out.
His gaze immediately focused on Lin Yang, who was holding a long spear, his eyes slightly closed, in a mysterious state of cultivation.
“He’s indeed breaking through to the Ling Tong Realm!”
Joy flashed in the eyes of the purple-robed elder, Ziyun:
“Moreover, judging by the surging spiritual power around him, this breakthrough seems to be quite extraordinary.”
“There’s even a power that Old Man I can’t quite grasp.”
Ziyun was both delighted and astonished.
Not only was there spatial power surging around Lin Yang, but there was also a peculiar power that even he couldn't identify, actively pulsating.
And this peculiar power made him subtly feel that it was extraordinary.
“Lord Ziyun!”
“It’s Lord Ziyun!”
The several generals in the bunker, seeing Ziyun’s sudden appearance, were also incredibly excited, silently bowing in respect to Ziyun.
This was a figure like a stabilizing force within the Human War Alliance!
He actually came personally to guard!
“It seems this lord who is breaking through is even more crucial and important than we imagined.”
“To actually have Lord Ziyun personally come here.”
The generals exchanged silent glances.
“This time it should be secure. With Lord Ziyun here, the alien races won’t be able to break through Lord Ziyun’s blockade and disturb this lord who is breaking through!”
“That’s true, but we still must not be careless!”
“…”
The generals exchanged whispers, while also arranging for the ordinary people who had rushed to the bunker to be sent inside first.
Feng Zhuyi had his mother enter the bunker, but he didn't move, still guarding beside Lin Yang.
Lin Yang had called out to him before striking with his spear, and now he understood that Lin Yang was intentionally guiding him.
The profoundness of that spear strike kept replaying in his mind.
“This is a great opportunity, a heaven-sent opportunity!”
Feng Zhuyi was very excited.
He had a premonition that if he could grasp the profundity of that spear strike, even if only one percent, it would bring him a completely different level of improvement!
“There’s still some lingering spear aura around His Excellency. I must seize this chance to learn!”
Feng Zhuyi also imitated Lin Yang, closing his eyes slightly and beginning to sense the lingering spear aura.
Suddenly.
Two more figures emerged from the space above the bunker.
“Hmm? Chengfeng, Old Kong, why are you two here?”
Ziyun had already prepared for battle when he sensed the anomaly in space, but when he saw the two people walking out of space, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Kong Shan Yu spread his hands and said helplessly, “Chengfeng insisted on coming, so I had no choice but to accompany him.”
Ziyun immediately understood: “Chengfeng must be here to see the benefactor who saved him back then.”
Everyone in the War Alliance knew about Shang Chengfeng’s matter.
Back then, to avoid revealing Lin Yang’s identity, Shang Chengfeng attributed everything, as Lin Yang had instructed, to the mysterious expert from Gu Yin Star.
Now, with this powerful individual potentially being that mysterious expert from Gu Yin Star, it was perfectly normal for Shang Chengfeng to come.
Kong Shan Yu nodded, then glanced at Lin Yang, immediately breaking into a wry smile: “Chengfeng, you really kept us in the dark! He truly is the kid who lived next door to my courtyard back then!”
Shang Chengfeng smiled awkwardly, but didn't say much, just looking at Lin Yang, very excited.
Ziyun heard this and asked doubtfully, “Old Kong, you also know His Excellency?”
“I do!”
Kong Shan Yu nodded, briefly recounted the events at the Shang family back then, then sighed with emotion:
“This kid Chengfeng’s lips are really sealed!”
Ziyun’s eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance upon hearing this, and he also looked at Shang Chengfeng: “Chengfeng, how did His Excellency treat you back then? Can you tell us now?”
Shang Chengfeng’s soul was severely damaged. According to what they later learned, even if the few of them personally intervened, they wouldn’t have much confidence in successfully treating Shang Chengfeng at his most severely injured state.
Therefore, they were all very curious about how that mysterious expert from Gu Yin Star had cured Shang Chengfeng back then.
But for all these years, Shang Chengfeng was unwilling to say too much, and they also didn't press him.
Now that the main person had finally appeared, Ziyun couldn't help but feel a little curious.
How could a spatial spiritualist heal Shang Chengfeng’s soul injuries so quickly?
Shang Chengfeng hesitated upon hearing this, but still didn't say, only stating, “Lord Ziyun, you can ask Your Excellency Lin Yang directly later. Without His Excellency Lin Yang’s permission, it’s still not convenient for me to speak.”
“Alright.” Ziyun saw this and stopped asking.
Anyway, the person was already in front of them; they would know sooner or later.
The three of them remained silent, guarding Lin Yang.
The warriors and generals of Liuyun Star were once again excited to see Shang Chengfeng and Kong Shan Yu appear.
Although Shang Chengfeng's strength was not top-tier, he held a very high status in the hearts of every warrior.
As the only Life Spiritualist among humans currently, he had saved too many people.
Therefore, his status was very special.
Everyone respected him greatly.
Being able to see Shang Chengfeng so closely also excited these warriors and generals.
It was like meeting an idol.
Time passed little by little.
Lin Yang’s breakthrough, however, showed no signs of ending.
Instead, the spiritual power surging around him became more frequent.
“Why does it feel like his breakthrough is a bit different from when I broke through?”
Kong Shan Yu had been observing carefully.
He himself was also a spatial spiritualist in the Ling Tong Realm.
Therefore, he paid extra attention to Lin Yang.
But now, Lin Yang's breakthrough and his own breakthrough back then had very obvious differences.
He had instantly comprehended the spatial spiritual divine ability back then, and then naturally broke through to the Ling Tong Realm.
The entire breakthrough process only took less than ten minutes.
But Lin Yang had already been at it for over half an hour, not only showing no signs of stopping, but the power around him was gradually showing signs of becoming violent.
This made him start to worry: “Could something unexpected happen, and he’s going to fail his breakthrough?”
“Bah! Old Kong, shut your mouth! Don’t say anything inauspicious!”
Ziyun glared at Kong Shan Yu in annoyance.
“...Lord Ziyun, when did you become so superstitious?” Kong Shan Yu chuckled.
Ziyun glared at him again, remaining silent.
“Alright, although the power is starting to become violent and it’s taking longer, we are all here, so there’s no way we’ll let him fail his breakthrough!”
Kong Shan Yu smacked his lips.
He had just said it casually.
He also deeply hoped that Lin Yang could successfully break through.
Not only would it add a Ling Tong Realm spatial spiritualist to humanity, but it would also give him a fellow practitioner of the same realm!
He had been in the Ling Tong Realm for many years, yet had never advanced further, so he also greatly hoped that after Lin Yang broke through, they could exchange ideas and spar, allowing him to make further progress.
Ziyun nodded slightly: “No matter what unexpected circumstances arise, we must ensure he succeeds in his breakthrough!”
This time, it could only be a success!
Once a Ling Tong Realm breakthrough fails the first time, it becomes even harder to achieve that moment of sudden enlightenment again later.
Then, Ziyun looked up at the sky and said faintly, “With him taking so long to break through, the alien races probably won’t miss this opportunity. Old Kong, if a big battle breaks out later, you must separate the space and try to keep him in a safe environment without affecting his breakthrough.”
“Understood.” Kong Shan Yu nodded, “However, since Lord Ziyun has come in person, and the alien race’s old fellows are being held up by the Lords of the Tea Banquet, there shouldn’t be much chance for them to cause trouble.”
“That’s hard to say.”
Ziyun shook his head.
“Right now, we are about to gain another Ling Tong Realm spatial spiritualist. They will probably use some means to let an old geezer break free and cause trouble. After all, they only need to slightly affect the breakthrough to succeed; there’s no need for them to fight me to the death.”
“Then…”
Kong Shan Yu was about to speak, but the next second, his expression suddenly changed drastically!
He saw a deep spatial rift suddenly appear above Lin Yang.
A terrifying power surged from within the spatial rift, heading directly for Lin Yang.
“Hmph, as expected, they still came!”
Ziyun let out a cold snort, his purple robe swayed without wind, and with a flick of his sleeve, a similarly vast power collided with the force attacking Lin Yang.
“Ziyun, you old geezer, you’re really cautious, actually coming here in person.”
An Alien Race Old Ancestor covered in crimson fur walked out of the rift, his eyes flickering with murderous intent, staring at Lin Yang, and said to Ziyun:
“You human race really have good fortune. Just when you’re about to collapse, you can still produce another spatial spiritualist never before seen.”
“Heh heh, Old Ancestor Bi Chi, aren’t you also here in person?” Ziyun scoffed.
“Hmph.” Old Ancestor Bi Chi merely snorted coldly, then attacked again.
“Old Ancestor Bi Chi, give up. With me here, you won’t be able to destroy even a tiny bit!” Ziyun said leisurely.
“Is that so? Old Ancestor I doesn’t believe such a big commotion won’t affect him at all?” Old Ancestor Bi Chi sneered.
He had no intention of engaging Ziyun in a major battle, but instead continuously caused spatial tremors around Lin Yang’s location.
Attempting to interrupt Lin Yang’s breakthrough.
Ziyun’s eyes were cold.
He had already guessed that the opponent wouldn't fight him here, but only wanted to disrupt Lin Yang’s breakthrough.
His primary role here was to prevent the Alien Race Old Ancestor level powerhouses from massacring others.
Kong Shan Yu also said, “Old Ancestor Bi Chi, you alone are not enough to disrupt Your Excellency Lin Yang’s breakthrough under my protection!”
As a spatial spiritualist in the Ling Tong Realm, although Kong Shan Yu was not yet an Old Ancestor level existence, his status was almost comparable.
Especially in terms of spatial defense and destruction, an Old Ancestor level existence might not even be as skilled as him.
Old Ancestor Bi Chi’s eyes were cold: “Kong Shan Yu, I, this Old Ancestor, will personally kill you one day!”
“Haha, then you’ll never have that chance!” Kong Shan Yu laughed heartily.
Old Ancestor Bi Chi stopped paying attention to Kong Shan Yu and also stopped attacking, seemingly waiting for something.
Seeing this, both Ziyun and Kong Shan Yu felt a bad premonition rise in their hearts.
“Who is this old geezer waiting for?”
They couldn’t help but look at each other.
Since receiving the news of Lin Yang breaking through here, everyone in the Human War Alliance, whether Old Ancestor level or Spirit Realm level, had participated in the battle to hold back the alien race's Old Ancestors and Spirit Realms.
According to their plan, the allied alien army would at most be able to free up one Old Ancestor and a few Spirit Realms to cause disruption.
But now, seeing Old Ancestor Bi Chi’s leisurely demeanor, he didn't seem to be waiting for a few other Spirit Realms to arrive.
“What, Ziyun, are you scared?”
Old Ancestor Bi Chi couldn't help but sneer, looking at Ziyun and Kong Shan Yu's expressions.
Ziyun ignored him, only secretly strengthening his guard.
Kong Shan Yu also firmly sealed the space around Lin Yang, preventing anyone from approaching.
Suddenly—
A chilling power quietly emerged above the bunker.
In an instant, the temperature throughout the entire space plummeted.
"Achoo..."
"Achoo..."
"Why is it suddenly so cold!"
Some warriors with slightly lower strength couldn't help but shiver and sneeze.
Just as everyone noticed the temperature rapidly dropping, it suddenly plunged by nearly a hundred degrees in a flash.
Some warriors were instantly frozen into ice sculptures.
They were frozen before they could even react, instantly losing their Life aura.
"This is..."
Ziyun and Kong Shan Yu's expressions both changed:
"Ancestor Xue Ji!"
Buzz!
As Ziyun called out the newcomer's name, a gentle power also unfurled, enveloping everyone and shielding them from this intensely cold force.
"Everyone, return to the bunker!"
Ziyun then issued an order.
With two Alien Race Old Ancestors descending, there was no need for ordinary warriors to remain outside.
Staying would only mean certain death.
Kong Shan Yu's eyebrows and hair were also covered in white ice crystals.
The safe space he had sealed off for Lin Yang began to tear apart inch by inch, like shattering ice, under the influence of this extreme cold power.
"Ancestor Xue Ji!"
Ziyun roared:
"Your Snow Feather Race, today, do you intend to be enemies with my Human Race?"
"Ziyun."
Please... you... bookmark_6I9IbookIbar (six\nine\book\bar!)
A figure shrouded in pristine white ice crystals appeared, looked at Ziyun, and calmly said, "Your Human Race's great momentum is destined to be over; there's no need to struggle anymore."
"Heh heh, Old Ghost Xue Ji, you truly are a complete scoundrel. Back then, to achieve a breakthrough, you promised us you would never stand against our Human Race, begging us to give you the opportunity. Now, you've turned your back and refuse to acknowledge us!"
Ziyun cursed furiously.
"There's nothing I can do, Ziyun, they offered too much; I couldn't refuse!"
Ancestor Xue Ji showed no significant emotional fluctuations, merely stating calmly:
"They promised that if I helped this time, after your Human Race is annihilated, my Snow Feather Race would receive one-tenth of your original Human territory."
"You know, our Snow Feather Race is indeed currently lacking suitable habitable planets."
Ziyun laughed in extreme anger: "Good, good, good, Old Ghost Xue Ji, I swear today, if I don't kill you, I, Ziyun, vow not to be human!"
"More talk is useless, Ziyun. Today, it's two against one; you have no chance of winning." Old Ancestor Xue Ji remained calm. "Today, perhaps you will become the first Old Ancestor level existence to fall."
"You can certainly try!"
Ziyun coldly retorted.
Boom!
The next instant.
Old Ancestor Xue Ji and Old Ancestor Bi Chi attacked simultaneously, charging towards Ziyun.
Torrential power surged.
Space was constantly torn apart.
Giant ravines, hundreds of meters deep, appeared on the ground, spreading like a spiderweb.
A nearby small mountain was instantly reduced to dust.
Sand and stones filled the sky, and the world turned a desolate yellow.
Crack, crack, crack.
The space around Lin Yang was once again repeatedly frozen and torn apart.
"Lin Yang, hurry up and break through!"
Kong Shan Yu's power surged around him, barely maintaining the stability of the space, his heart filled with anxiety.
However, under the suppression of two Old Ancestor level powers, he struggled immensely to maintain it.
Even with Ziyun blocking most of the power for him, he gradually began to falter.
Green Life characteristic power also gathered on Shang Chengfeng's body, injecting into Kong Shan Yu to alleviate the effects of the freezing power.
"Chengfeng, I can't hold on much longer. You should quickly return to the War Alliance." Kong Shan Yu said with difficulty. "Old Ghost Xue Ji has sided with the Alien Race Allied Army, and Ziyun won't be able to hold them off for too long either."
Shang Chengfeng shook his head without speaking, only increasing the injection of Life power.
Crack, crack, crack!
The space maintained by Kong Shan Yu, after thousands of repeated tears within a second, finally couldn't hold on and completely shattered.
The chilling freezing power was omnipresent, drilling towards Lin Yang.
"Damn it!"
Kong Shan Yu cursed, then flashed directly in front of Lin Yang, using himself as a conduit to actively absorb all the chilling power.
In an instant.
His body was covered in white ice crystals.
"Lin Yang, if you don't complete your breakthrough soon, I'm going to die here!"
Kong Shan Yu also couldn't bear the extreme cold of the white ice crystals and shivered from the freezing.
His heart was also filled with lament.
Lin Yang's breakthrough this time had taken far too long, greatly exceeding expectations.
As a result, the situation had rapidly deteriorated.
He was almost unable to hold on!
"Heh heh, Ziyun, do you see? Before killing you, we can take out Kong Shan Yu first."
Old Ancestor Bi Chi sneered, speaking:
"Either you take Kong Shan Yu and that damned Life Spiritualist brat and get lost while you still have the strength."
"Or, Kong Shan Yu will be killed by us!"
"In this way, not only will this new guy be unable to break through, but you will also lose another great general!"
He and Old Ancestor Xue Ji, working together, could certainly kill Kong Shan Yu.
But killing Ziyun was still somewhat difficult.
Today's events were sudden after all, and his purpose in coming was only to disrupt Lin Yang's breakthrough.
He hadn't made full preparations to kill Ziyun.
Therefore, he wanted to force Ziyun to make a choice.
Either abandon Kong Shan Yu, or abandon this new guy.
Anyway, it was impossible for two Ling Tong Realm spatial Spiritualists to exist simultaneously among humans.
Ziyun's face was grim.
This choice was very difficult for him to make!
"Ziyun, I can still hold on for a while longer! It won't be that easy for these two old geezers to kill me!" Kong Shan Yu's trembling voice also rang out.
Although he was extremely struggling at this moment, if he held on a little longer, a miracle might happen.
Ziyun nodded, enduring the attacks of Bi Chi and Xue Ji, and continued to provide protection for Kong Shan Yu.
"Hmph, this Old Ancestor wants to see how many more minutes you can last!"
Old Ancestor Bi Chi's eyes flashed with a chilling light when he saw this.
Then he struck out with a palm, heading straight for Kong Shan Yu and Shang Chengfeng.
If he couldn't kill Ziyun.
Then he would kill Shang Chengfeng and Kong Shan Yu first!
Ziyun waved his hand to block.
But was intercepted by Ancestor Xue Ji.
"Ziyun, I gave you a choice, but you didn't take it. Then today, they are doomed to die!"
"Old Ghost Xue Ji!!"
Ziyun was enraged.
Seeing that Kong Shan Yu and Shang Chengfeng were about to directly face Old Ancestor Bi Chi's power.
He steeled his heart, preparing to burn his spiritual power and fight desperately.
But.
Just at this moment.
A silver light suddenly appeared, directly piercing towards Old Ancestor Bi Chi's glabella.
"Hmm?"
"This power..."
Ziyun's movement paused, revealing a look of surprise.
Ancestor Xue Ji's eyes also narrowed, looking at that silver light.
Whoosh!
The silver light flashed, and a silver spear, with an indescribably profound trajectory, instantly pierced through space, appearing at Old Ancestor Bi Chi's glabella!
Old Ancestor Bi Chi hadn't paid much attention to this power initially.
He casually raised his hand, intending to crush that silver light.
But the moment this silver spear appeared, a premonition of danger arose in his heart.
"No!"
The next instant.
Old Ancestor Bi Chi let out a startled cry, his body rapidly retreating.
He tried to increase the distance between himself and the silver spear.
However, the silver spear seemed to ignore spatial distance; no matter how far he retreated, it always remained half an inch from his glabella.
Then.
Under Old Ancestor Bi Chi's disbelieving gaze, it pierced into his glabella.
A drop of blood.
Trickled down Old Ancestor Bi Chi's forehead.
Silence!
The world instantly fell silent!
Only Old Ancestor Bi Chi's hands, trembling slightly uncontrollably, pulled out the silver spear that had pierced half an inch into his glabella.
Then, power erupted from his hand, directly shattering the silver spear!
"You... you can actually injure this Old Ancestor?!"
Immediately after, Old Ancestor Bi Chi's chilling gaze fixed on Lin Yang.
Yes, that's right.
That silver spear was thrown by Lin Yang.
Old Ancestor Bi Chi's eyes were cold and dark, his heart also surging with killing intent.
At the same time, there was also a hint of fear!
The power of that spear just now, had its level not been insufficient, he feared his glabella would have been directly pierced through!
A guy who had just broken through to the Ling Tong Realm could actually possess such terrifying power.
This made Old Ancestor Bi Chi both shocked and furious!
And filled with an absolute intent to kill!
Today, no matter what, Lin Yang could not be allowed to leave alive!
Otherwise, when Lin Yang's strength advanced further in the future, these Old Ancestor level existences might not be his match!
"Lin Yang, you... you succeeded in your breakthrough?!"
Kong Shan Yu, at this moment, was overjoyed, looking at Lin Yang with immense surprise.
Although he was also numbed by the shock, he was more excited!
Lin Yang could injure Old Ancestor Bi Chi right after breaking through; his strength was simply immeasurable!
Ziyun also showed a joyful expression as he looked over.
Even he was shocked by the power of that spear.
"Your Excellency Lin Yang!!"
Shang Chengfeng was even more excited.
"Yes, thank you both for guarding me, and Chengfeng, nice to see you again. For now, leave it to me!"
Lin Yang responded, saying no more, but instead fixed his gaze on Old Ancestor Bi Chi, meeting his cold stare.
Just now, the moment he was about to attack the tens of thousands of alien races outside the bunker, he saw the long spear in Feng Zhuyi's hand.
His mind couldn't help but recall the scene of that Silver Armor Heroic Soul Warrior senior making his final spear thrust in the Unknown Space ruins that day.
Then, an indescribably subtle feeling made him borrow Feng Zhuyi's long spear and thrust it out, imitating the Silver Armor Heroic Soul Warrior senior's spear technique.
Following that, he comprehended some applications of spatial power and entered a state of enlightenment for his breakthrough.
Although he was in a very peculiar state throughout the breakthrough process, he still had a clear perception of everything happening outside.
However, he couldn't actively exit that profound state.
The scene of the Silver Armor Heroic Soul Warrior senior thrusting his spear played repeatedly and uncontrollably in his mind.
He could also feel some mysterious power emerging from his soul.
Allowing him to gain a deeper understanding of time and space during the continuous playback.
And gradually, he completely mastered the profound essence of that spear thrust.
Although his strength was still far from that of the Silver Armor Heroic Soul Warrior senior, imitating the profound trajectory of that spear thrust increased its power by more than several times!
This was why he could directly injure Old Ancestor Bi Chi!
That spear thrust of the Silver Armor Heroic Soul Warrior senior was a technique, a divine ability, and even a Dao!
When he fully comprehended the profound essence of that spear, he concluded this breakthrough.
At this moment, Lin Yang stared at Old Ancestor Bi Chi and suddenly spoke:
"Old Ancestor Bi Chi, do you dare to fight me?"
Huh?
As soon as these words were uttered.
Ziyun, Kong Shan Yu, and even Old Ancestor Xue Ji were stunned!
What did Lin Yang say?
He wanted to fight Old Ancestor Bi Chi?
He had just broken through!
All three were dumbfounded.
Even Old Ancestor Bi Chi himself was momentarily stunned. (End of this chapter)
