727: Chapter 727, Final Stage, Outbreak
At the seven hundred and fifty-first step, the Spear Warrior's Realm increased to Transcendence Realm Initial Stage.
Su Yuan defeated it with a single strike of his spear, and a terrifying spear aura permeated the surroundings.
Ahead, Zhang Yuzun was at the seven hundred and fifty-sixth step, a distance of five steps from Su Yuan.
Behind, the distance between Chen Shenxiao and the two—Su Yuan and Zhang Yuzun—was even greater than before, yet he remained as relaxed and composed as ever.
His demeanor was calm, and just like the other two, he killed the Spear Warrior with a single strike of his spear.
Zhou Xinyan and the others watched with trembling hearts. As the trial progressed to this point, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Chen Shenxiao had not been using his full strength and had been slacking off the entire time.
Despite this, Chen Shenxiao still broke into the fourth trial.
He left Zhou Xinyan and the others far behind.
They maintained an attitude of awe and respect toward this Little Immortal Saint of Shenyuan Holy Land.
Regardless of the Little Immortal Saint's reputation outside, strength was always the ultimate truth.
That he ranked first in strength among the three Little Saints was not a groundless rumor.
Before Su Yuan came to Huiqiong Star, the three Little Saints had sparred under the witness of a Peak Great Power of World Realm from Shenyuan Holy Land.
In the end, the Little Immortal Saint overwhelmed the Little Venerable Saint and the Little Imperial Saint, becoming the undisputed strongest of the young generation on Huiqiong Star.
Next was the Little Venerable Saint, and the weakest in strength was the Little Imperial Saint.
Among the three, the Little Immortal Saint had the lowest Realm, while the Little Venerable Saint had the highest.
That the Little Immortal Saint could be ranked the strongest despite having the lowest Realm showed how Heaven-Defying his combat power and how outstanding his talent were.
The results of that sparring match between the three Little Saints were announced by Shenyuan Holy Land, so there was not much doubt from the outside world.
No one on Huiqiong Star was unaware of the authority of Shenyuan Holy Land.
From then on, the ranking of the three Little Saints was set.
The Little Immortal Saint, the Little Venerable Saint, and the Little Imperial Saint—the three top Prodigies of Huiqiong Star in the current era.
On the red path, Su Yuan ruthlessly reaped the Spear Warriors one strike at a time, keeping close to Zhang Yuzun's pace.
Zhang Yuzun discovered that no matter how fast his walking speed or his speed in killing the Spear Warriors was, Su Yuan always followed closely behind him, unable to be shaken off.
He had already used his full strength and was holding nothing back, so how could Su Yuan still keep up with him, and even look so at ease?
Zhang Yuzun had a feeling in his heart that Su Yuan, following behind him, was like a lion with bared fangs, ready to strike at any moment to take his life.
As the distance they traveled grew, Zhang Yuzun felt this more and more.
Su Yuan's strength was unfathomable; he had never had such a feeling even outside.
Gritting his teeth, Zhang Yuzun unleashed his power once more, brandishing his spear, and his walking speed increased by another notch.
He truly did not believe that he was inferior to Su Yuan at the same Realm. What a joke! He was the second-ranked Genius of Huiqiong Star; how could he be inferior to someone from Hui Gu Star?
Zhang Yuzun frantically brandished the spear in his hand, his killing speed becoming faster and faster, and his forward speed also increased significantly.
Seeing that he was about to create a ten-step gap between himself and Su Yuan, Su Yuan's gaze sharpened. He exerted force quietly, his leg muscles trembling slightly as he increased his speed a little.
If Zhang Yuzun exerted force, he could just exert force too.
What seemed to be Zhang Yuzun's limit right now was not Su Yuan's limit at all.
Their current forward speed was still far from Su Yuan's limit.
Since Su Yuan began to Cultivate, there was only one person who could contend with him at the same Realm: the Phantom of Heavenly God Yu.
No matter how strong Zhang Yuzun was, Su Yuan did not think he could compare to the Phantom of Heavenly God Yu at the same Realm.
Behind, Chen Shenxiao gazed ahead, indifferent as he watched Su Yuan and Zhang Yuzun exerting themselves.
"Zhang Yuzun seems anxious. He certainly didn't expect Brother Yuan to have such terrifying strength."
"As of now, it seems Brother Yuan hasn't truly exerted himself yet, while Zhang Yuzun has already used all his strength."
"In this inheritance of the crimson sovereign space, both Brother Yuan and Zhang Yuzun are at the Mid-stage Star King Realm. Zhang Yuzun cannot suppress Brother Yuan with his Realm."
"Both are at the same Realm. Right now, Brother Yuan appears to be lagging behind, but his expression shows no sign of panic, which clearly indicates that Brother Yuan has an ace up his sleeve."
Chen Shenxiao smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth: "Perhaps even more than one ace."
Zhou Xinyan, Jiang Kaiyi, and the others noticed the smile on Chen Shenxiao's face and couldn't help but twitch their lips.
The Little Immortal Saint was too relaxed on this trip, always watching the struggle between Su Yuan and the Little Venerable Saint from the perspective of a bystander.
Ever since Zhang Yongran left the red path, the expression on his face had been uncertain.
Zhou Xinyan and the others did not know what happened outside the Chizhen Pavilion, but he was standing right beside Zhang Yuzun at the time and heard their conversation clearly.
The Little Immortal Saint's claim that someone else was suppressing the Little Venerable Saint was actually not a joke!
Through these few rounds of trials, it had long been apparent that Su Yuan was extremely strong and could fight the Little Venerable Saint to a standstill.
Or even have the upper hand.
However, in the final round of trials, Su Yuan was not doing well, temporarily falling behind the Little Venerable Saint who was in peak state.
Watching Su Yuan following the Little Venerable Saint like a tagalong, Zhang Yongran silently cheered for the Little Venerable Saint in his heart.
While cheering, Zhang Yongran prayed, praying that Su Yuan would absolutely not overtake the Little Venerable Saint.
As long as the Little Venerable Saint maintained this distance and persisted until the end, it would be his victory.
Time passed at the speed of light, and in the blink of an eye, the Little Venerable Saint advanced a distance of one thousand steps.
One more step forward, and an unprecedented, heavy pressure struck.
Strong as the Little Venerable Saint was, he could not help but show a clear look of gravity on his face.
Bang!
With one strike, he shattered the Spear Warrior whose Realm had increased again.
Jiang Kaiyi and the others noticed that the Little Venerable Saint's movements were much slower than before; clearly, the pressure released by the crimson god spear after one thousand steps was too strong.
"The last two hundred and fifty steps are the true test."
"Wanting to obtain My Legacy is not such an easy thing."
"Next, let Me see what kind of power you two can unleash in the final stage."
The Phantom of Chi Zun swept his gaze over Zhang Yuzun and said softly in his heart.
Ten seconds later, Su Yuan also advanced one thousand and one steps.
A terrifying sense of oppression surged over, and Su Yuan felt his body sink, his movements slightly slower than before.
"Has it finally reached the final stage?"
"In that case, the power accumulated along the way can be unleashed."
Su Yuan suddenly stopped in his tracks, his eyes sharp as he gazed ahead.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he put the ziyuan spear into the qingqian treasure orb.
"Hm?"
"Why did he put his weapon away?"
The Phantom of Chi Zun's eyes flashed with confusion; he did not understand the purpose of Su Yuan doing this.
Although he had not said that one could only use a spear to kill the Spear Warriors, for a spear cultivator, a long spear was the strongest means. What else would one use when fighting others if not a long spear?
The Phantom of Chi Zun did not understand, and the others were even more confused.
Looking at Su Yuan's behavior, it seemed as if he was about to give up.
"No."
"He is about to truly start exerting his strength."
The Phantom of Chi Zun met Su Yuan's gaze and saw the solemnity in his eyes.
Su Yuan let out a soft breath, and his 'Power of Immediate Self' erupted!
One step, two steps, three steps...
Almost in an instant, Su Yuan caught up to Zhang Yuzun and walked shoulder to shoulder with him.
Immediately after, under Zhang Yuzun's horrified gaze, Su Yuan turned into an afterimage and disappeared from where he stood.
In the blink of an eye, Su Yuan was already ahead, about ten steps away from Zhang Yuzun.
In another blink of an eye, Su Yuan appeared twenty-two steps ahead.
His forward speed became faster and faster, and his back grew further and further away from Zhang Yuzun, leaving him stunned on the spot.
