Chapter 1007: Chapter 981 Breakthrough

Suddenly, the white-clothed man’s sword moved as well, and it was also the Great Rift Vajra Technique. However, when executed by the white-clothed man, it was incomparably perfect, even more powerful and terrifying than when performed by the Yanshan Sect Master.

Bang bang bang!!!

The clash of sword forces occurred, and all of Tangyu’s moves were blocked by the white-clothed man. What’s more, the power of the white-clothed man’s sword force was actually above Tangyu’s.

In this clash, Tangyu naturally suffered a setback.

Tangyu frowned slightly: “What a perfect Great Rift Vajra Technique, this sword is flawless, and its power surpasses mine. I have no way to break through it.”

The white-clothed man still looked at Tangyu indifferently: “The perfection of the Great Rift Vajra Technique at the Second Layer, yet it’s not truly perfect. Even if it were perfect, it couldn’t defeat me. Unless you manage to cultivate to the Third Layer, you have no hope of passing.”

The Third Layer?

Tangyu shook his head. Reaching the Third Layer, how easy is it to talk about? After all, the time he has spent cultivating the Great Rift Vajra Technique has been too short. Thinking of breaking through, it’s hard indeed.

“You are not my match, don’t waste time here, retreat,” said the white-clothed man.

Tangyu curled his lip and said, “I still want to try again.”

After speaking, Tangyu attacked once more, directly employing the Mindful Style this time. The power of Mindful Style is indeed somewhat stronger than that of the Great Rift Vajra Technique, though the increase is limited and not too significant.

Clang——

With one sword, the divine power of the Yin Yang Path was triggered, making the sword force particularly terrifying.

The white-clothed man still responded with a sword, forming an absolute defensive field with the infinitely perfect Great Rift Vajra Technique Second Layer, flawless and both offensive and defensive. With ten thousand swords blocking one, he actually stopped Tangyu’s Mindful Style.

Tangyu’s brow furrowed deeply, his face showing a serious expression, knowing that trouble was at hand. Even his Mindful Style was blocked by the white-clothed man. Although Tangyu could see that blocking his Mindful Style, the white-clothed man was also almost at his limit. As long as his own sword force became stronger, he would certainly be unable to block it.

Tangyu shook his head; there was no further breakthrough possible with the Mindful Style. To win this battle, it seemed that only by breaking through and enhancing his strength at this moment would it be possible. Or breaking through to Mystic Law Realm Fourth Layer, or the Great Rift Vajra Technique breaking through to the Third Layer.

Tangyu was now also at the Perfection of Mystic Law Realm Third Layer, and indeed there was a possibility of breakthrough, but it wasn’t easy to achieve in a short time. Laying the Dao Foundation, after all, isn’t something that can be done overnight. As for the Great Rift Vajra Technique, there’s a slight chance left.

Images flashed in Tangyu’s mind.

Closing his eyes for a moment, Tangyu suddenly opened them, a wicked smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. His sword moved again, and with one strike, a hundred-zhang-long golden beam was unleashed, which transformed into a sword shape, like a hundred-zhang-long golden sword striking out of thin air. This golden sword, carrying terrifying power, descended from the sky, slashing down at the white-clothed man.

Great Rift Vajra Technique Third Layer.

This increased Tangyu’s sword force by more than double, making a single strike extraordinarily fearsome.

The white-clothed man also stepped forward expressionlessly, but this time he was no longer impeccable, and was directly overwhelmed by Tangyu’s sword force, his body retreating.

With the sword force retracted, a slight smile appeared on Tangyu’s face: “Unexpectedly, in such circumstances, I was able to comprehend the Third Layer of the Great Rift Vajra Technique so easily, and smoothly breakthrough to reach the Third Layer. The power of the Third Layer has truly brought my strength to the level of Mystic Law Realm Sixth Layer.”

To cultivate the Great Rift Vajra Technique to the Third Layer, even among veteran disciples, there aren’t many.

Tangyu achieving this in such a short time indeed makes him an unparalleled prodigy.

Tangyu also felt a wave of emotion in his heart, this trial at the Shi Que Palace had also provided him with a comprehensive transformation. Originally, his innate comprehension was extremely strong. After the baptism of Shi Que Palace, he naturally became stronger and more demonic. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to reach the Perfection of the Second Layer of the Great Rift Vajra Technique within just one month. Now, having directly broken through to the Third Layer, it doesn’t seem like anything extraordinary, after all, Tangyu was praised by the Palace Master of Shi Que as the one who stood at the pinnacle of innate talent in the entire Cultivation World.

Therefore, Tangyu’s rate of improvement is astonishing.

The white-clothed man also said: “Not bad, you’ve actually broken through to the Third Layer. Consider this stage passed. The first path of the Hero’s Path, consider it walked. Passing the first path gives you the qualification to be listed on the Hero Rank. The second path will be even more terrible, but with your strength, you might as well give it a try.”

After speaking, the white-clothed man left.

Tangyu paused for a moment, realizing that after so many challenges, this was only the first path. Next, there was a second path, so could there be a third path?

How many paths are there on the Hero’s Path?

Passing the first path brings one to the strength of Mystic Law Realm Sixth Layer, so what about passing the second?

Tangyu increasingly realized that the Hero Tower was anything but simple. He never expected Yanshan Sect to have such an excellent place.

However, Tangyu pushed aside these random thoughts. Since he had already passed, he naturally had to continue the challenge to see exactly how formidable the second path was. Resolutely, Tangyu stepped forward and continued on his way.

Outside the Hero Tower, there was suddenly a change in the Hero Board Stele, instantly drawing all eyes toward it.

At this moment, fifty to sixty people had gathered in front of the Hero Tower, all there to see if Tangyu and Zhuang Qian could indeed get on the Hero Board. When they noticed a change in the Hero Board, everyone’s heart skipped a beat, as there was only one reason for this occurrence: Tangyu was about to be listed on the Hero Board.

This thought alone startled quite a few people.

No one initially held much faith in Tangyu, and yet, he had actually managed to make it onto the Hero Board.

Sure enough, there was a new name on the Hero Board, the one hundred and second name: Tangyu.

“What—”

“He actually made it onto the Hero Board, at number one hundred and two! This… this is way too extraordinary! His strength has truly reached such a terrifying level.”

“It’s insane, too terrifying. Mystic Law Realm Sixth Layer, and how long has he been in the Yanshan Sect? Such rapid progress is extremely rare, even in the history of the Yanshan Sect!”

“In just a little over two months, he has made such tremendous progress. Compared to him, we might as well go end our lives.”

Tangyu’s ascent onto the Hero Board astonished everyone enormously and also incited a deep sense of discomfort and imbalance in many people.

“Hmph, so what if he did? He is the Sect Master’s Direct Disciple, surely he has some impressive methods. Maybe he relied on these methods to get onto the Hero Board.”

“That cannot be. On the Hero’s Path, you can only use your own weapons; other treasures are not allowed. If you use them, you risk angering the guardian and can forget about passing.”

The plaza was in an uproar, and many senior disciples came upon hearing the news. This information spread like a tidal wave.

“Haha, amazing. Brother Tangyu truly is a great power, too impressive, it is impossible not to admire him. To think he actually made it onto the Hero Board, now we await his return to celebrate with him properly.” Zhuang Qian also laughed heartily.

Zi Cang also rarely smiled and nodded, sharing in Tangyu’s joy.

Zhuang Qian shook his head again: “Alas, Tangyu is already on the Hero Board; I must work harder, or else I won’t be able to catch up to him even on a desperate run. The gap will only widen, and it’s disheartening.”

Yao Jiguang came upon hearing the news, and when he saw Tangyu’s name etched on the Hero Board, he couldn’t help but twitch his mouth slightly.

Over two months ago in Yanshan City, he had sparred with Tangyu. Although he lost that match, he didn’t think Tangyu was that strong, just slightly stronger than him. But now?

In just a little over two months, the distance between him and Tangyu became immeasurable, a devastating blow to him.

The Four Talents of Yang City also came, as did Wang Qilong, Zhu Haifei, Lei Shanfu, Dong Xiaowu, and even Ye Liu. Ye Liu had passed the Hero’s Path, but unfortunately did not make it onto the Hero Board. Having traversed the Hero’s Path, he knew how difficult it was to make it on the board.

Ye Liu’s gaze was fixed on Tangyu’s name on the Hero Board, his eyes flickering with a complex expression. He then looked toward Zhuang Qian, causing Zhuang Qian to frown slightly. Although there wasn’t much animosity detected in his gaze, it still made Zhuang Qian somewhat uncomfortable.

Tangyu making it onto the Hero Board was indeed a major event for the Yanshan Sect since he was the first new disciple to do so. Moreover, within such a short time frame, even in the annals of Yanshan Sect’s history, individuals like him were few and far between.

“Hmm, why hasn’t he come out yet? Could he be continuing the challenge?”

“It’s possible. Could it be that he’s pushing even further up?”

“No way, that’s too monstrous! I’d faint from anger.”

Tangyu’s prolonged absence from the Hero Tower sparked a buzz of conversation among the crowd, fueling excitement.

Even Zhuang Qian couldn’t help but grin: “Crazy, Brother Tangyu might really make headlines this time.”

At this moment, Tangyu had already embarked on the second path of the Hero’s Path. In front of him was a single-log bridge, but it was a large log, about ten feet in diameter. Below lay an endless abyss, exuding a hauntingly eerie air that was bone-chilling.

Spanning before Tangyu was an abyss of unfathomable depth, stretching well over a thousand feet. The single-log bridge was the only route across. To reach the other side, he had no choice but to cross this bridge.

The air was laden with an overwhelmingly eerie atmosphere, permeated with a chilling aura, as if he had arrived in the Nine Nether. Just sensing this aura invoked a sense of crisis, warning him of danger.

Tangyu couldn’t help but become highly alert, his nerves instinctively tightened.
