Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates
Chapter 108 - 106: Breakthrough from Front and Rear

Chapter 108: Chapter 106: Breakthrough from Front and Rear

"Only half a month left, when I come out of the First-tier Sky, I will be an invincible Inner Sect Disciple!" Xiao Ye’s body was filled with strong confidence.

Actually, even without using the Martial Arts True Intent, he might not be weaker than Leng Feng anymore, so naturally, there was no need to worry about becoming a target anymore.

Xiao Ye entered the First-tier Sky and sat down cross-legged, his consciousness diving into the second layer of the Time Tower.

Boom!

The violent Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi repeatedly washed over Xiao Ye’s body, like rivers raging and roaring, yet unable to shake Xiao Ye in the slightest.

With the strength of his physical body now, he was even less afraid of the dangers in the First-tier Sky.

Hiss hiss hiss!

The Four Tripod Heavenly Technique refined a large amount of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi into True Qi Liquid Dots, gathering them into the Dantian, emitting a fierce glow like a blazing sun.

At the same time, his Physical Body Power was also slowly increasing.

Xiao Ye began his last half-month of cultivation journey, aiming to break through to the late stage of the Sixth Level of Innate Realm.

Before long, an earthquake occurred in the First Zone, because Xiao Ye’s cultivation time in the First-tier Sky had already exceeded two hours.

In the history of the Inner Sect, no one had ever cultivated in the First-tier Sky for so long, not even Leng Feng.

"Could this kid have died inside?" Amidst the astonishment of the crowd, immediately a young disciple could not hold back and went to investigate the First-tier Sky.

When he saw Xiao Ye peacefully cultivating, he was dumbstruck.

"Xiao Ye isn’t dead, he’s still inside cultivating?" This news, when sent back, shocked everyone.

After three hours had passed, the exploits of Xiao Ye spread, instantly causing a sensation throughout the entire Inner Sect, drawing three Golden Robed Elders together.

"This youngster has cultivated the Four Tripod Heavenly Technique, totally capable of withstanding the violent Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi; not to mention two hours, he could continue cultivating indefinitely," a wise and experienced Golden Robed Elder discerned the situation.

Hearing this, the Inner Sect Disciples in the First Zone were stunned.

Being able to continuously cultivate in the First-tier Sky was almost like having a cheat activated.

"Damn it, we’ve been played by this kid!" The first to react was Zhang Huwei, who was defeated by Xiao Ye.

Being among the top ten disciples of the Inner Sect, none were fools. Following suit, they erupted in cursing, angrily denouncing Xiao Ye’s craftiness.

Had Xiao Ye revealed this capability too early, he would have undoubtedly faced suppression by the other Inner Sect Disciples, for who would allow such a formidable opponent to grow unchecked?

This was simply too unbalancing!

However, Xiao Ye had initially chosen to bide his time, supplanting one opponent after another, before finally letting his strength burst forth. By now, Xiao Ye had become so powerful that no one except Leng Feng could suppress him.

"The First-tier Sky can only accommodate one person at a time for cultivation; what do we do if Xiao Ye doesn’t come out?" Zhang Huwei and others’ expressions darkened.

Though dangerous, the First-tier Sky was enormously beneficial for them; being unable to enter for cultivation was a huge loss.

"It seems we can only let Leng Feng make a move."

Instantly, eight Inner Sect Disciples in the First Zone turned their gazes towards Leng Feng.

They believed that Leng Feng could easily defeat Xiao Ye with one move, and they were also eager to see Xiao Ye taken down a notch through Leng Feng’s intervention.

At this moment, Leng Feng was seated cross-legged on a stone platform, his sword-like eyebrows slightly furrowed, his body emitting thunderous sounds, and the vast fluctuations of his True Qi surged like tidal waves.

Clearly, Leng Feng was at a critical moment of breakthrough.

"Leng Feng is about to break through to the Seventh Level of Innate Realm!" Everyone gasped in shock, all astounded.

It was known that the Seventh Layer of Innate Realm was akin to crossing the Dragon Gate. Many Innate Martial Artists, limited by their capabilities, never managed to cross it in their lifetime.

For instance, people like Zhang Huwei, also in the late stage of the Sixth Level of Innate Realm, had practiced strenuously for years without any sign of advancement.

But once advanced, the Liquid Drops of Innate True Qi in their bodies would crystalize, performing a metamorphosis similar to a fish jumping through the Dragon Gate, causing an earth-shattering change in strength, enabling them to annihilate any Martial Artist below the Seventh Level of Innate Realm with a flick of a finger.

This was already the level of a Direct Disciple, a level not even many Golden Robed Elders had reached.

Yet Leng Feng, not yet a Direct Disciple, had already transcended this barrier, deservedly positioned as the top individual in Chongyang Sect’s Inner Sect, definitely to be contested over by the four Black Robed Elders.

"After Leng Feng’s breakthrough, defeating Xiao Ye will be even less of a concern!" someone coldly sneered.

Others too perked up, eagerly anticipating the drama that was about to unfold.

However, as they waited, ten days passed, and Leng Feng still remained at the breakthrough threshold, not yet truly stepping into that realm.

The other Inner Sect Disciples became anxious; there were only five days left until the Black Robed Elders would recruit Direct Disciples.

With Leng Feng not making a move, no one dared to confront Xiao Ye.

Moreover, disturbing someone else’s breakthrough was a great taboo in the Martial Artist community, akin to taking their life, so no one dared to awaken Leng Feng and could only continue to wait desperately.

Finally, on the fifteenth day, a power that chilled people to the bone surged straight into the Nine Heavens, shaking the Heaven and resonating through the void, sweeping across the entire Chongyang Secret Realm, as if heralding the birth of a King.

"What’s going on!"

Simultaneously, the Inner Sect Disciples within the Chongyang Secret Realm felt a formidable suppression, as if bearing a mountain of ten thousand weights, and the Innate True Qi in their Dantians were locked down.

"Such terrifying power!" Numerous Inner Sect Disciples, horrified, looked towards the depths of the Chongyang Secret Realm.

At this moment, the First Zone was engulfed by a storm formed by sheer power, and even disciples with weaker cultivation were blown away by the stray forces, coughing up large amounts of blood.

"Leng Feng has broken through, I hadn’t expected the Seventh Level of Innate Realm to be so powerful!" Zhang Huwei breathed heavily, his gaze complex as he watched the figure at the center of the storm.

Now Leng Feng had crossed the Dragon Gate and was on a completely different level from them.

Boom!

An even more terrifying surge of power roared, scattering the white clouds in the heavens, violently shaking the earth, fracturing it with countless fissures. Disciples in the First Zone had no choice but to retreat to the Second Zone.

When all calmed down, a tall figure appeared in everyone’s sight.

Standing in the First Zone with a long spear in his hand, his robe fluttering with the wind, his eyes brilliant like stars, he resembled an unrivaled king, his aura invincible.

This youth was Leng Feng, who had crossed the Dragon Gate and reached the Seventh Level of the Innate Realm.

Any Inner Sect Disciple who met Leng Feng’s gaze felt as if their bodies were weighed down, finding even breathing to be extremely difficult.

There was no helping it; Leng Feng was too strong now, probably not even all the disciples of the Inner Sect combined could contend against him.

"I’ve been unrivaled in the Inner Sect for too long, now that I’ve stepped into the Seventh Level of Innate Realm, I only feel lonelier." Leng Feng withdrew his gaze and sighed softly.

At this point, someone couldn’t restrain themselves, stepping forward to inform him about Xiao Ye, hoping Leng Feng would stand up for them.

"Oh? Xiao Ye has been cultivating continuously in the First-tier Sky for fifteen days?" Leng Feng, far from being alarmed, was pleased, "Perhaps in him, I can find the long-lost war intent."

With that said, Leng Feng, spear in hand, started walking towards the direction of First-tier Sky.

Upon seeing Leng Feng head towards First-tier Sky, the First Zone immediately boiled over, everyone followed, all eager to see just how strong Leng Feng now was.

And in their eyes, Xiao Ye was merely a whetstone for Leng Feng.

In First-tier Sky, the Innate True Qi Liquid Drop within Xiao Ye’s Dantian had already reached a critical point, surging fiercely.

"Break through!" Xiao Ye roared within his heart, mobilizing all his power, aiming for the Late Stage of the Sixth Level of Innate Realm.

Boom boom!

The True Qi Liquid Dots in Xiao Ye’s Dantian emitted a fierce glow, the powerful surges of Qi shaking the mountain walls of First-tier Sky.

Finally, with Xiao Ye’s efforts, his cultivation broke through to the Late-stage Sixth Level of Innate Realm, his powerful fluctuations sweeping across the heavens, stirring the clouds in all directions.

"I’ve broken through!" Xiao Ye’s consciousness exited the Time Tower, and unable to contain his excitement, he burst out laughing.

His current cultivation level was no weaker than any Inner Sect Disciple, and coupled with his Physical Body, he was strong enough to sweep across the Inner Sect, truly an unrivaled Inner Sect Disciple, this moment was what he had been biding his time for.

"It’s strange, no one has come to disturb me for this half a month." Xiao Ye grew a bit puzzled.

By all logic, Leng Feng should have made a move against him, he was already prepared for a battle.

Thud!

Just then, a young man holding a long spear strode forward, his eyes as bright as stars, his aura unmatched, this person was Leng Feng.

Behind him followed several Inner Sect Disciples who had come to enjoy the spectacle.

"Xiao Ye also broke through?"

"This is getting more exciting."

Seeing Xiao Ye’s appearance, the crowd first froze, then their expressions turned curious.

You must know, before breaking through, Xiao Ye had defeated Zhang Huwei in one move, now after his breakthrough, who knows what he’s capable of.

Leng Feng has broken through, Xiao Ye has also broken through, might these two have a fated showdown?

"Leng Feng!"

Xiao Ye’s eyes shot out two sharp gleams, he could tell, Leng Feng had already broken through to the Seventh Level of Innate Realm, his strength immensely increased, surely a formidable opponent.

"Xiao Ye, you really didn’t let me down, I’ve grown some interest in you, dare you engage in battle with me?" Leng Feng burst out with a strong war intent, his voice booming through the void.

"Why shouldn’t I?" Xiao Ye took steps toward the First-tier Sky, his Blood Qi surging.

Just right, he too wanted to test his current strength.

"In all fairness, I will only use half my strength," Leng Feng said confidently with a smile, as if instructing a junior.

Indeed, he now had the cultivation of a Direct Disciple, using full strength against an Inner Sect Disciple would just be bullying.

Thus, Leng Feng’s statement didn’t seem inappropriate to the others.

Hearing this, Xiao Ye coldly smiled and responded, "What’s given must be reciprocated, I too will seal half my power and duel with you."

This statement stunned everyone; Xiao Ye was perhaps too arrogant.

Boom!

Powerful energy fluctuations burst from Leng Feng’s body, his long spear pointing directly at Xiao Ye: "Xiao Ye, you are too arrogant. The power of the Seventh Level of Innate Realm isn’t something you can contend with."

"My strength isn’t something you can contend with either!" Xiao Ye coldly said, standing eye to eye against Leng Feng, both radiating immense strength.
