I am a full-level celestial master, you let me enter the strange talk of rules?

Zhang Yangqing had considered this in his mind: he had basically figured out the upper limit of the aptitude and potential of the body he had taken over.

They are probably stuck at the "Celestial Realm," the limit of human potential, and it is difficult to make any further qualitative breakthroughs.

Unless one can find a heaven-defying treasure to cleanse their meridians and marrow, but that is something that can only be encountered by chance.

This limits his future growth potential.

But! This core disciple of the hidden clan is different!
He is a native of this world, and a core member of the Hidden Clan, who is blessed with exceptional talent and powerful bloodline!

His physical attributes and potential are far beyond what he currently possesses!

More importantly, he already possessed the strength foundation of the "Initial Saint Realm"!

A crazy and tempting idea took shape in Zhang Yangqing's mind and quickly took root: If I could possess or devour and replace him, then I could not only obtain a more powerful and higher-potential 'identity' and 'body',
Furthermore, I can directly inherit his 'Initial Saint Realm' cultivation foundation! Using this as a springboard, I might even break through to a higher realm in this world! Half-Saint? Or even touch upon the so-called 'Saint Realm'?!

The thought that he might gain such terrifying growth potential and power foundation in this strange and powerful Undying Mountain Realm made Zhang Yangqing feel his blood boiling!

This is far more tempting than finding the fruit of the immortal tree!

Fruits may be external things, rewards, but a fundamental leap in one's own strength is the foundation for survival and the greatest confidence to cope with all unknown risks!
The beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes next to him keenly sensed the almost tangible killing intent and greed emanating from Zhang Yangqing. Although it was only fleeting, it still sent a chill down her spine.

She thought Zhang Yangqing wanted to kill this hidden disciple, perhaps to seize his valuables or information, or simply to eliminate obstacles.

She quickly lowered her voice, her tone anxious and dissuading, and said, "Brother! Calm down! I know your strength is unfathomable, but this is the Undying Mountain Realm! He is a core disciple of the Hidden Clan, a powerful expert at the Initial Saint Realm!"
Even if you could defeat him without a doubt, killing him would cause you enormous trouble! The Hidden Clan is extremely sensitive to the loss of such a core disciple and will definitely investigate thoroughly!

"At that point, forget about finding the Tree of Immortality; we might not even be able to leave this area alive! Brother, think it over!"

In her view, although Zhang Yangqing was strong, he shouldn't be at the level to easily kill a beginner Saint Realm cultivator and then perfectly clean up the mess. That was too risky!

However, Zhang Yangqing simply turned his head slowly and glanced at her.

His gaze was terrifyingly calm, yet deep within it seemed as if an abyss was swirling, unwavering, revealing only an almost ruthless decisiveness and a hint of indescribable excitement.

He didn't explain his true intentions, but simply uttered a few words in a chillingly calm tone:

"Come with me and watch me do it."

After saying that, he didn't look at the beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes again. His figure moved like a ghost, silently sneaking towards the side and rear where the core disciple of the hidden clan was talking to the steward.

His movements were light and swift, as if he blended into the surrounding shadows and mist. Each step was taken at the most imperceptible point, and his aura was concealed to the extreme. If one did not watch him move, it would be almost impossible to sense his presence.

The beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes watched his disappearing figure, then glanced at the powerful-looking disciple of the Hidden Clan in the distance. Her heart pounded, a mix of immense unease and faint anticipation swirling within her.

She knew that what was about to happen might be far beyond her imagination.

She gritted her teeth and cautiously followed, maintaining a greater distance, ready to provide backup or escape at any moment. This hidden clan expert possessed rare silver hair, cut extremely short, each strand standing upright, giving him an exceptionally capable appearance.

His name is Yin Kui, and he is quite famous among the younger generation of the Hidden Clan, known for his efficiency and formidable strength.

His visit to the dock was routine; he was responsible for collecting rare and precious materials occasionally found in this outer area, as well as special "items" specifically requested by certain powerful members of the clan.

He will gather these items and transport them back to the core territory of the Hidden Clan through specific, secure channels, then distribute them to those in need.

Yin Kui had just completed the handover of a batch of "goods" and was checking the list with the dock manager. His face showed a slight relaxation after completing the task, but his eyes were still sharp and his vigilance had not been completely relaxed.

It's clear that Zhang Yangqing and his group weren't the only ones eyeing Yin Kui.

At this moment, Yin Kui had already entered the Misty Forest, and the further he went in, the more mysterious it became.

It's as if countless lives are killed here, and no one outside can detect it.

Just as Zhang Yangqing quietly approached, searching for the best time and position to strike, a sudden change occurred!

Boom! !
Without warning, five torrents of energy, each a different color but equally violent, suddenly erupted from the misty forest!
These five energies instantly tore through the thick fog, like five ferocious dragons, and attacked Yin Kui, who was checking the list, from an extremely tricky angle!

Wherever the energy passed, the air emitted an unbearable shriek, the ground was plowed with deep furrows, and the surrounding trees and rocks were instantly pulverized by the aftershocks!

A terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the area, causing the beautiful woman with peach blossom eyes to change her expression drastically and retreat rapidly.

The attackers have appeared!

They are five outsiders from other dimensions!
They had clearly been lying in wait for a long time, just waiting for Yin Kui to finish the handover so they could launch a thunderous attack on the way back!
The five people have rather peculiar appearances and are not purely human.

They exuded a mixed and powerful aura, clearly hybrids of multiple powerful bloodlines. Their muscles were bulging, their skin was covered with fine scales or keratin, and their pupils had the vertical pupils of wild beasts or bizarre compound eye structures.

Their strength had all reached the "Celestial Realm" level!

Moreover, judging from the nature of their energy, they all follow a violent path of extreme physical enhancement and overwhelming all laws with sheer force!
"Roar!!"

One of the burly men, nearly three meters tall, covered in dark red scales and with curved horns on his head, charged forward first. He opened his mouth and spewed out a scorching, dark red dragon breath that smelled of sulfur.

The temperature was so high that it seemed to burn through the space itself, heading straight for Yin Kui's face!

Another slender, ghostly female attacker, her fingernails suddenly growing into foot-long, dark blue blades, tore through the air, bringing with them gusts of bloody wind, and attacked Yin Kui's neck and ribs from the side!
The third attacker's arms transformed into giant rock fists crackling with lightning, slamming them down hard into Yin Kui's back!
The fourth and fifth attackers respectively controlled the raging gale and the highly poisonous black mist, blocking Yin Kui's escape space and attempting to erode his physical body and senses!
Five mixed-blood powerhouses at the Celestial Realm level cooperated perfectly, launching a fierce and ruthless attack that sealed off all of Yin Kui's escape routes, clearly aiming to kill him in one blow!

This lineup would be considered luxurious in any dimension, enough to unleash a bloodbath!
The surrounding space trembled violently under this ferocious attack, the earth cracked, and debris flew everywhere. Several ancient trees nearby were struck by the aftershocks of the energy and instantly turned into wood chips! The scene was utterly horrifying! (End of Chapter)
