Lack of talent? I'll buy a year's worth of cultivation for one dollar!

The dazzling tri-colored light shone through the light curtain, illuminating the entire Tongtian Peak Square as if it were daytime.

Several breaths passed.

The light dissipated.

Inside the light curtain.

That once invincible mid-stage Black Hole-level Thunder Clan imprint had half of its body completely evaporated.

The remaining remains struggled for a moment in the sea of ​​lightning before finally collapsing with a deafening roar.

And Lin Yan.

His body was covered in blood, and his arms hung limply at his sides.

His chest heaved violently, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with pieces of internal organs.

He used every last ounce of his strength.

He crushed the teleportation jade slip in his hand.

Swish.

The light screen flickered.

Lin Yan's battered body was forcibly teleported back to the plaza by the formation.

Third floor of the Tower of Babel cleared!

Quiet.

The entire Tongtian Peak Square fell into a brief silence.

Followed by.

A deafening roar of cheers soared into the starry sky!

"I beat the game!!!"

"At the celestial level, it has broken through the third layer of the mid-stage black hole level!"

"A miracle! This is a miracle that our Primordial Divine Martial Sect has never seen before in nearly 100,000 years!"

"Senior Brother Lin Yan is invincible!!!"

midair.

The Grand Elder looked at his beloved disciple, who was covered in blood, but instead of being worried, he laughed loudly.

The laughter was filled with extraordinary satisfaction and pride.

"Good! Good! Good!"

The elder stroked his beard repeatedly, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"Ten thousand for the first floor, twenty thousand for the second floor, and thirty thousand for the third floor!"

"A full 60,000 low-grade star stones!"

"Yan'er, today you have not only proven yourself, but you have also gained a foundation that ordinary elders cannot accumulate in a hundred years!"

"Well done!"

Several stewards immediately stepped forward and fed Lin Yan top-grade healing pills.

Lin Yan sat cross-legged, refining the medicinal power while enjoying the awe and admiration in the eyes of everyone present.

And deep within his consciousness.

Within that black ring, the remnant soul of the Ember Lord also uttered an exceptionally astonished praise.

"Little Yanzi, you have truly given this old man a tremendous surprise."

The voice of the Lord of Ashes carried an unprecedented solemnity.

"Teacher, wasn't my trick pretty good?"

Lin Yan asked weakly in his heart.

"It's more than just good."

Jin Zun took a deep breath.

"Your move just now had already touched the edge of 'ultimate technique'!"

Mysterious Technique?

Lin Yan was stunned for a moment; he was completely unfamiliar with this word.

"Supernatural powers are the embodiment of the laws of the universe."

Jin Zun explained in a deep voice.

"And the ultimate technique, forcibly condensed from various supernatural abilities and laws, combined with the martial artist's own understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, is a deadly skill!"

"That is the path that belongs uniquely to martial artists!"

"Unparalleled in power, unmatched!"

Jin Zun looked at Lin Yan with anticipation in his eyes.

"Such methods are usually only grasped by supreme beings at the level of World Lords, who have spent millions of years accumulating experience."

"And you, so young, with your cultivation at the Eternal Star level, have actually managed to touch the threshold of profound mysteries!"

"Little Yanzi, as long as you don't perish, you will surely have a place at the pinnacle of the future starry sky!"

Receiving such high praise from Lord Jin filled Lin Yan with a surge of confidence.

He clenched his fist.

He's sure to win the big competition three months from now!

at this time.

The very edge of the square.

Su Yu crossed his arms and calmly watched Lin Yan, who was sitting cross-legged healing his injuries.

"Forcibly kneading and collapsing flames, laws, and even the power of companion beasts from different dimensions together."

"By disrupting the balance, one can gain instantaneous, extreme destructive power."

"This line of thinking is brilliant."

Su Yu touched his chin.

He possesses the perfected "Chaotic Limitless Origin Blood Technique," and his body is filled with chaotic energy that encompasses all things.

If in the future, I will also forcibly merge the Nirvana Spear Intent, the Chaos Dharma Form, and even the Immortal Divine Power.

Could they also create their own "killer move"?

"Worth learning from."

Su Yu nodded, firmly memorizing the energy circulation trajectory Lin Yan had just executed.

Just as the whole audience was cheering for Lin Yan.

The periphery of the crowd.

A slightly hunched figure was silently watching all of this.

It's Zao Wou-Ki.

This was an outer sect elder who had just been traumatized by Su Yu in the outer sect square.

I originally came to Tongtian Peak to relax and calm my crumbling Dao heart.

I witnessed the entire process of Lin Yan breaking through the third floor.

Zhao Wuji looked at Lin Yan, who was being fawned over like a star, and fell into deep thought.

"At the level of the Eternal Star, it broke through the mid-stage of the Black Hole level."

"This Lin Yan is indeed a top-tier genius, one in a million."

Zhao Wuji murmured to himself.

but.

I don't know why.

Another figure uncontrollably surfaced in his mind.

That eighteen-year-old boy, wielding a dark gold spear, shattered a black hole filled with millions of collapsing source blood with a single thrust.

"Compared to that monster, Lin Yan..."

Zhao Wuji swallowed hard, and a chill involuntarily ran through his body.

"Who is more powerful?"

Zhao Wuji shook his head.

Lin Yan is a genius, but his genius is something that can be understood in a way that is conventional.

But that Su Yu...

That's not even human! It's a living Yama who defies the fundamental logic of the universe!

Just as Zhao Wuji was lost in thought...

On the edge of the crowd.

Su Yu walked steadily through the crowd towards the entrance of the Tower of Babel.

Edge of Tongtianfeng Square.

On the periphery of the crowd.

Su Yu remained calm, his hands in his pockets, and walked unhurriedly toward the entrance of the Tower of Babel.

At the entrance, the array's light swirled.

Su Yu took out the purple-gold steward token and lightly traced it on the array.

hum.

With a flash of light, his figure vanished from his spot and entered the Tower of Babel.

On the periphery of the crowd.

Zhao Wuji hunched over, recalling Su Yu's monstrous data.

His old face held a complex expression.

There was horror, there was awe, and there was an indescribable bitterness.

Just then.

A slightly overweight inner sect elder with a mustache approached with a smile.

"Old Zhao, why are you standing here in a daze?"

Elder Li patted Zhao Wuji on the shoulder and followed his gaze, but saw nothing.

Did you see Lin Yan pass the test just now?

Elder Li's face was full of excitement, and his tone revealed an undisguised admiration.

"Two million source blood!"

"A three-thousand-fold increase in skill power!"

"They even possess a terrifying trump card capable of instantly killing mid-stage black hole-level monsters!"

Elder Li marveled at this.

"The Grand Elder has really struck gold this time!"

"With Lin Yan's incredible combat power, he'll undoubtedly be the number one in the inner sect competition three months from now, right?"

"That spot for the primordial baptism belongs to him alone!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding deacons nodded in agreement, praising Lin Yan's strength to the skies.

however.

Faced with Elder Li's flattery.

Zhao Wuji remained silent.

The image of that dark golden spear light that tore through his collapsing black hole in the outer plaza flashed uncontrollably into his mind.

Transformation of the Daoist Spear Intent!

A Domain Lord-level cultivation technique with a 100,000-fold increase!

And then there's that despair-inducing dimensional suppression!

Compared to that monster, what is Lin Yan?

Lin Yan is indeed talented, but he is still within the realm of being a "human".

But that Su Yu is a living Yama who defies the laws of the universe!
