I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

Shen Tian simply opened the system panel that only he could see.

[Kill Points Balance: 18720]

【Cultivation Technique: Hunyuan Tiangang (13120/30000)】

"system."

Shen Tian silently recited in his heart.

"Fill it up...."

boom!

The moment the words fell.

The internal energy within Shen Tian's body was like a nuclear bomb being thrown into it, instantly boiling and exploding!

The 16,880 kill points were burned up in that one second, turning into extremely pure energy that poured wildly into his limbs and bones.

The already viscous qi, which was like molten mercury, began to glow at this moment.

That was golden light.

On Shen Tian's skin, countless golden runes appeared and disappeared, which was the extraordinary phenomenon of cultivating "Hun Yuan Tian Gang" to its extreme.

Chi Xiao, sitting next to him, sensed this aura and his expression instantly froze.

He felt a terrifying heat wave rushing towards him.

It's as if the person sitting next to you isn't a person, but a small, collapsing sun!

"This aura..."

Chi Xiao's eyes widened, almost popping out of their sockets.

"Tier 4... late stage?"

"wrong!"

"It's still rising!"

The speed at which that aura rose was simply unreasonable.

It's like riding a rocket, without any bottlenecks or pauses, speeding all the way up!

In just three breaths.

The golden light emanating from Shen Tian had become so intense that it was blinding.

The air around him, unable to withstand the terrifying density of the aura, creaked and groaned under the strain, and even visibly distorted.

Om-!

A clear buzzing sound emanated from Shen Tian's body.

That was the sound of perfected internal energy.

Peak of the fourth tier!

The ultimate perfection!

"Holy crap?"

At this moment, Chi Xiao, a peerless expert who was halfway to the sixth level, lost all his composure and uttered the most plain and unadorned curse.

He had lived half his life and seen countless geniuses.

But he had never seen such a monster before!

One second they were still in the mid-stage of the fourth tier.

He reached the peak of the fourth tier in the time it takes to say a few words?

Are you cheating?

"call--"

Shen Tian slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

After leaving the body, that breath lingered and did not dissipate, like a sharp arrow that pierced through a lamppost ten meters away.

"It seems... a bit easy?"

Shen Tian clenched his fist, feeling the vast, ocean-like power within his body, and smacked his lips with a hint of lingering satisfaction.

Chi Xiao's lips twitched violently.

easy?

You call this easy?

If those old guys who've been stuck at this bottleneck for decades heard this, believe me, they'd crawl over and bite you to death.

"Is this your source of confidence?"

Chi Xiao tried to calm himself down, looking at Shen Tian with a complicated expression.

"Peak fourth tier...that's indeed very strong. Even without me, you could probably escape unscathed if you encountered an early fifth tier opponent."

"but……"

Chi Xiao shook his head, his tone still grave.

Shen Tian nodded upon hearing this.

"You're right, senior."

"Fourth rank is indeed not enough."

"so……"

Shen Tian flicked his wrist, and the projection screen of the tactical watch popped open instantly.

On it was displayed an encrypted file that had been downloaded long ago.

That was an S-level cultivation technique he had exchanged for with his military merits.

[Fifth-Tier Technique: Myriad Manifestations of the Universe]

This is one of the top-tier fifth-order martial arts techniques in the Dragon Kingdom's arsenal.

Unlike the fierce and domineering style of "Hun Yuan Tian Gang".

The "Myriad Manifestations of the Universe" emphasizes embracing all things and encompassing everything.

Its core concept is to use itself as a furnace to contain all the elemental energy in the world, thereby forming its own invincible power!

For Shen Tian, ​​who possesses multiple attributes such as lightning, ice, and mental power, this was practically tailor-made.

[Ding! S-rank cultivation technique "Myriad Manifestations: Senluo Technique" detected. Add to collection?]

"Included".

[Inclusion successful!]

The new entry appeared instantly at the bottom of the system panel.

[Technique: Myriad Manifestations of the Universe Technique (Beginner Level 0/100000)]

[Kill Value: 1840]

"system."

"Add all these kill points to the Myriad Manifestations Technique."

Shen Tian gave a low shout in his heart.

【Ding! 】

[Consuming 1840 kill points... Injected into the "Myriad Manifestations of the Universe"!]

Om-!

In that instant, Shen Tian's body trembled violently.

Shen Tian is now at the peak of the fourth rank of Qi cultivation!

The physical foundation of 840 million divine elephants!

The sharpness of an innate sword body!

The extraordinary perception of the Heavenly Heart Connection!

Boom! ...

Without any warning.

An extremely terrifying suction force suddenly erupted from the depths of Shen Tian's dantian.

That's a characteristic of the "Myriad Manifestations of the Universe".

The myriad phenomena of the universe encompass all things and devour all things!

got windy.

A sudden gust of wind swept through the once desolate core area of ​​the occupied zone.

That wasn't ordinary wind.

That's a vortex formed by energy!

Chi Xiao, who was sitting next to him, was taking out a cigarette with a disdainful look when suddenly his hand trembled, and the lighter was swept away by the suction force.

"Holy crap?!"

Chi Xiao suddenly stood up, his cloudy old eyes widening instantly.

What did he see?

Centered on Shen Tian, ​​the free energy within a radius of 100 meters surged wildly towards the seated figure, like rivers flowing into the sea!

Even the evil energy of the earth's veins buried deep underground.

All of it was forcibly plundered by this domineering suction force and poured into Shen Tian's body without any distinction!

"This...this is the Myriad Manifestations of the Universe!"

"Shen Tian actually chose this cultivation technique!"

Robbing the heavens and earth!

Chi Xiao had seen that domineering aura of devouring everything in a top expert many years ago.

"Click..."

Above Shen Tian's head, a visible energy funnel is taking shape.

Purple lightning, white frost, golden aura...

The forces of various attributes collided chaotically in this funnel, and were finally forcibly crushed, turning into the purest nourishment, washing over Shen Tian's not particularly tall body.

boom!!!

A beam of light shot into the sky.

Shen Tian suddenly opened his eyes.

Deep within his pupils, it seemed as if two black holes were swirling, profound, terrifying, and capable of swallowing everything.

The aura that originally belonged to the peak of the fourth tier burst instantly, like a punctured balloon.

Then a qualitative change occurs!

Within Shen Tian's body, an invisible sword aura spread out.

He didn't do it intentionally; it just radiated naturally!

The strong winds subsided.

The funnel dissipated.

Shen Tian was still the same Shen Tian, ​​but the aura around him had changed.

If he was a sharp, unseen blade before...

So now he is like an unfathomable sea.

You can't see the bottom of it, but you know that once you fall in, you'll be shattered to pieces.

Shen Tian turned his head and looked at Chi Xiao, who had turned into a statue.

He flashed a bright smile, revealing two rows of pearly white teeth.

"senior."

"This fifth tier... is complete."
