44: Referee, take care of him, this guy is cheating!

In an instant.

A figure flew out, stepping majestically into the air.

As the Seventh-tier Sword Domain unfolded, a crescent moon-like sword blade suddenly slashed towards Lu Xuanzong.

There was no violent sound.

There was no earth-shattering commotion.

Everything seemed to be frozen, with no hint of Sword Qi fluctuation.

“Pfft—”

Blood gushed out.

The figure flew backward!

Yet, under this sword blade with no Sword Qi fluctuation, Lu Xuanzong was defeated!

Completely and utterly defeated!

His figure, like a falling leaf, swept across the sky above the Altar of Heaven Square, and finally, crashed heavily among the dense crowd of Disciples outside the square.

“Seventh-tier Sword Domain??? ”

“He’s a Seventh-tier Sword Cultivator??? ”

Looking at Chen Qingfeng standing majestically in mid-air, and then at the Seventh-tier Sword Domain that had formed around him, Wan Jianyi was shocked, and Qiao Zhenfeng was stunned.

Even He Qianqiu and Yang Dingtian’s expressions changed repeatedly, and their eyes revealed traces of astonishment.

A Seventh-tier Sword Cultivator!

This was almost on par with Wan Jianyi’s Dao of Sword Cultivation!

But what Realm was Wan Jianyi in?

What Realm was he in?

“A bet is a bet!”

“Eight Treasures Peak!”

“Qiqing Peak!”

“Wuping Peak!”

“All Elders, listen to my command! Hand over your Elder Tokens to open the Heaven’s Pride Ranking for Chen Qingfeng!!!”

The entire scene.

Was oppressively silent!

Finally.

It was Wan Jianyi who stepped forward first, being the first to hand over his Elder Token.

Buzz—

As soon as the Elder Token appeared.

Chen Qingfeng instantly took it into his hand. Without the slightest hesitation, he directly took the Elder Token and inserted it into one of the stone pillars standing around the Altar of Heaven.

One!

Buzz—

Two!

Buzz—

Three!

Buzz—

Four!

Five!

Six!

Ten!

Twenty!

Until…

When all the Elders from the three peaks had offered their Elder Tokens, a huge tower, eighteen stories high, suddenly rose from the ground of the Altar of Heaven Square!

“Chen Qingfeng—”

“This is the Heavenly Tower of the Heaven’s Pride Ranking!”

“Once you enter the Heavenly Tower, there’s no turning back. You’ve activated the Heavenly Tower with over thirty Elder Tokens from the three peaks, increasing the difficulty of challenging the tower by almost thirty times. If you regret it now, it’s still not too late!”

He Qianqiu stood at the head of the crowd, unable to resist advising Chen Qingfeng.

Over thirty Elder Tokens!

Each level was almost like Undergoing Tribulation!

The difficulty within was far greater than dealing with a Golden Core Realm expert like Lu Xuanzong.

Not to mention the countless Tianyi Sect Disciples gathered around.

Even the Peak Masters of the various peaks didn't believe Chen Qingfeng could make it through.

“When I’ve made up my mind, there are no two words for regret. Forget about a mere Heavenly Tower of the Heaven’s Pride Ranking; even if it’s the gates of Hell, if there’s something I want, even the King of Hell can’t stop me!”

Taking a step.

He directly stepped into the Heavenly Tower of the Heaven’s Pride Ranking.

Instantly.

With shimmering light, Chen Qingfeng’s figure suddenly found himself on the first floor of the Heavenly Tower.

The entire tower body.

Was like a green tower enveloped in spiritual power.

He could see outside.

And the people outside seemed to be able to see him too.

Before Chen Qingfeng could react.

Suddenly.

He saw over thirty streams of spiritual light flickering in front of him, converging into over thirty figures.

Their every smile.

Every gesture.

Even their clothing, was exactly the same as Chen Qingfeng’s, without any difference!

“First level!”

“It has begun!”

“The first level is only at the Early Stage Qi Condensation Realm!”

“The second level is at the Middle Stage Qi Condensation Realm!”

“The third level is at the Late Stage Qi Condensation Realm!”

“With each floor ascended, the Cultivation Realm increases by one level!”

“More importantly, these people are not just virtual figures; they are characters created by the Heavenly Tower using spiritual power, based on its detection and sensing of Chen Qingfeng, making them identical to him!”

“Their Moves, Cultivation Techniques, and even their Dao of Sword and Dao of Array Cultivation, are almost the same!”

This meant.

These thirty-plus Chen Qingfengs in front of him.

Were the Chen Qingfeng from back when he was still in the Early Stage Qi Condensation Realm!

“Is this the Chen Qingfeng from before I Transmigrated?”

“Why does he look so timid and like an idiot?”

Early Stage Qi Condensation?

He could be easily dealt with with a flick of the wrist.

It seemed Chen Qingfeng wouldn't even need to exert much effort.

However.

When Chen Qingfeng passed the first level and arrived at the second level, it was clear that the thirty-plus Middle Stage Qi Condensation Chen Qingfengs that appeared before him again, both in their demeanor and their devil-may-care attitude, had undergone a completely different transformation.

This kind of change.

Even the countless Tianyi Sect Disciples outside the Heavenly Tower noticed it.

“This is…”

“The same person?”

“What exactly did this guy go through? How can the difference between the two be so great? Did he get a new head?”

Some couldn't help but discuss.

Others were exclaiming in surprise.

Even Luo Hongchen, Su Meier, Yin Rushuang, and Tong Shuyao among others outside the arena, widened their eyes and couldn’t help but slightly part their lips, somewhat astonished by Chen Qingfeng’s transformation between the Early Stage Qi Condensation and Middle Stage Qi Condensation!

“Can the improvement of a Realm have such a huge impact on a person?”

They didn't understand.

But it seemed this was the only basis that could explain Chen Qingfeng's transformation.

The second level only had Middle Stage Qi Condensation.

Over thirty Early Stage Qi Condensation still posed no threat to the current Chen Qingfeng.

Therefore.

In less than half an hour.

Chen Qingfeng advanced through the levels, ascending the tower.

Finally.

He charged through ten levels in one go, reaching the eleventh level, which was the Late-stage Core Formation Realm!

Over thirty Chen Qingfengs with Late-stage Core Formation Realm Cultivation!

At this Cultivation Realm, Chen Qingfeng’s Dao of Sword Cultivation had already reached the sixth-tier!

His Dao of Array Cultivation had also entered the sixth-tier!

What was even more exaggerated.

His Law, Heaven, Image, Earth had already cultivated to the second level!

The battle on this level clearly began to become out of the ordinary.

Especially watching the fierce offensive launched by those thirty-plus Late-stage Core Formation Realm Chen Qingfengs against the true Chen Qingfeng, everyone present from the Tianyi Sect, outside the Heavenly Tower and above the Altar of Heaven, was dumbfounded.

Even Lu Xuanzong, who had just been treated by the Eight Treasures Peak Disciples and had barely regained a trace of consciousness, was momentarily stunned when he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the situation inside the Heavenly Tower.

“Cough—cough—”

“This… This is Late-stage Core Formation Realm??? ”

“This kid… he actually held back??? ”

“The one who fought me just now wasn’t his full strength?”

“How does he have an Incarnation now?”

“He’s in the Core Formation Realm, and he has an Incarnation?”

Referee!

You damn well control him!

This damn guy is cheating!!!
