With Gu Xuan's palm, the amount of starlight that had gathered to the extreme was no longer starlight but sunlight. It was dazzling, and there were even some people who narrowed their eyes.

It was as if Gu Xuan's palm was holding onto a huge sun.

Li Heng's face turned pale as he was stunned. The power of this martial art was too terrifying. Under the power of this martial art, he could not resist at all.

Gu Xuan glanced at Li Heng, the light in his hand was still the same, he walked towards him step by step.

With every step Gu Xuan took, the aura on his body grew stronger. Only after taking a full nine steps did his aura reach its peak.

"I admit defeat!"

Li Heng's face was deathly pale, and he finally could not bear the pressure as he hurriedly shouted.

After saying this, Li Heng seemed to have lost all his strength and immediately collapsed. His clothes were completely drenched in sweat.

Although Gu Xuan's aura was only concentrated on Li Heng's body, there were still many people whose aura was revealed to them. Just a trace of it being leaked out caused them to have difficulty breathing.

What kind of martial arts was this?

"Earth-Rank Martial Arts! This is definitely the Earth-Rank Martial Arts! "

"That's right, only the Earth-Rank Martial Arts can have such power."

"Heavens, Gu Xuan actually managed to grasp the Earth-Rank Martial Arts."

"No wonder Gu Xuan dared to challenge the top thirty senior brother of the Mountain And River List. Sigh,'s Human Second Order has increased by so much, I should have guessed that Gu Xuan had mastered this kind of martial art. It's just that I didn't dare to think of it before."

The crowd of Elite Student s were all sighing with emotion. The Earth-Rank Martial Arts was already a level higher than the Human Rank, and once one stepped out, the difference between the two was like the sky and the earth.

After Gu Xuan displayed his Earth-Rank Martial Arts, no one felt that Gu Xuan was arrogant. After Gu Xuan displayed his Earth-Rank Martial Arts, no one felt that his crazy actions of challenging others did not mean anything to Gu Xuan.

It could be said that Gu Xuan who possessed the Earth-Rank Martial Arts already possessed a power comparable to his Peak Profound Level.

"I wonder which senior brother Gu Xuan can defeat, could he really defeat the senior brothers who are in the top twenty?"

"That's unlikely. Although Gu Xuan is strong, he is only at the Peak Profound Level realm, and Senior Brother who has reached the top twenty not only has Peak Profound Level, but is also an expert within them."

"Indeed, it seems like Gu Xuan should be able to be ranked 256th, between Peak Profound Level and Nine Stars Profound Level. Although this rank is not bad, it's still worth losing several thousand Treasure Point."

"Gu Xuan is still too rash. After challenging so many, and losing a few thousand Treasure Point is just like buying a lesson. Previously, he just so happened to earn a bit, but now, he's only giving a little blood."

Before, they had lost quite a few of their hostility to Gu Xuan and had been defeated by him. In their hearts, there were some grievances, but now that they realized that Gu Xuan had grasped the Earth-Rank Martial Arts, they were relieved. They were not on the same level as him.

After that, Gu Xuan used his Star Picking Hand and easily defeated three Martial Cultivator s and reached the twenty-sixth place.

From the twenty-fifth place onwards, all of the Martial Cultivator s were at the Peak Profound Level. These people were clearly at a higher level than the others, and other than the third place Martial Cultivator, there was no one else at the Nine Stars Profound Level.

To reach the pinnacle of 9-star, this was a small bottleneck. Wanting to jump levels and challenge others was obviously not that easy.

However, he also felt that it was reasonable. After all, the Martial Cultivator s of Peak Profound Level were way stronger than the Nine Stars Profound Level, and the possibility of Gu Xuan winning wasn't high, so it wasn't normal for him to stop and delay for a while.

From the looks of today's spars, other than the first time where Gu Qin and Li Heng were defeated in one strike, the rest of them had a deadlock with Gu Xuan. Although there was a gap, it was not too big.

"Looks like those who are able to rank at the top of the Mountain And River List aren't simple." Gu Xuan scratched his chin and laughed.

The reason he chose to stop was actually because he felt that he might not have absolute confidence in defeating Martial Cultivator.

With his current strength, he would naturally be able to easily defeat ordinary Peak Profound Level. However, with the Peak Profound Level s being all the strong practitioners of Peak Profound Level, he might not necessarily be able to win against them.

"Forget it, let's go to the Pill Dao Pavilion first."

felt that his strength had reached the limit. The Divine Weapon Formula was the strongest divine rank cultivation technique, and the Star Picking Hand was a self-created Earth-Rank Martial Arts. The Source Flame was a Superior Heavenly Fire, coupled with his own eyesight and control, he was able to easily challenge those who were stronger.

However, the challenge of surpassing five levels was already a limit, and it would be difficult to continue advancing.

Even if Gu Xuan were to use the Cyclic Star Steps to the maximum amount of Earth Rank, it wouldn't be of much use.

After all, movement martial arts could only be used as a support and could be used to escape or to chase after. However, its true use in combat could only be considered average.

There was only one way to increase his strength, and that was to break through to the next realm.

If Gu Xuan was able to break through to the Six Stars Profound Level, then he would still be able to sweep across the Martial Cultivator s of the Peak Profound Level. And the key to the breakthrough would be whether or not Zong Qi could successfully help him refine the Ghost Spirit Pill.

When Gu Xuan arrived at the Pill Dao Pavilion, he discovered that Zong Qi was in the midst of closed door cultivation.

"I hope this Zong Qi doesn't disappoint me."

Gu Xuan shook his head, he was unable to do anything now, he could only resign himself to fate.

After leaving the pill cultivating room, Gu Xuan went straight to find Mu Ling to report. She was absent for a few days, so all of her missions were completed with Mu Ling's help.

Actually, with the speed at which Gu Xuan was earning Treasure Point, he no longer needed this service. However, Gu Xuan was still not ready to give it up, and even Gu Xuan himself did not know the reason why.

Perhaps it was to deceive people, or perhaps it was to contact Zong Qi, or perhaps it was because they couldn't bear to part with Mu Ling, the little girl who was kind enough to "help" them.

Although it was already impossible for Gu Xuan to fall in love with another person, he was actually a little curious. When Mu Ling found out that the person she had been patiently teaching was actually the legendary Pill Emperor, who was standing at the peak of the world of pill refining on the entire continent, she couldn't help but ask what kind of expression she would have on her face.

"Maybe she'll never know about this."

Gu Xuan laughed, his identity would not be revealed to anyone, and what Mu Ling wanted to know was, maybe one day, Pill Emperor Gu Xuan would once again dominate the continent, and not only Mu Ling, everyone would know this.

This day should not be too far away …
