Chapter 260: Chapter 148: Three Years Later, One Path Supersedes Ten Thousand Paths_2
Translator: 549690339
The trio began their journey again.
Traversing mountains and rivers, taking narrow winding paths, passing cities and towns, and walking on white clouds.
Time slipped away quietly like sand from between their fingers.
One day, they stood atop a mountain outside the Great Tang Dynasty’s Chang’an, looking out over the city that was hailed as the world’s number one city.
The city housed the world’s top academy.
The three of them stood on the mountain peak.
“We’ve been here for three years, a whole three years.” Ran Xin sighed, “Time really flies. Days and months pass like a shuttle, time is ruthless!”
“Indeed!” Chen Bei nodded, “But I still haven’t advanced to the Eighth Layer!”
“You’ve already reached the Seventh Layer Peak in just three years, and we still have seven years left, you can definitely break through.” Ran Xin said, “I have only just broken into the Seventh Layer of Martial Arts. As for the Eighth Layer? Who knows if I can even reach it? Ah, killing an Eight Realm expert alone, is hard, hard, hard!”
With that, she turned her gaze to Jiang Ming and said, “He’s still immersed in his cultivation! How I envy him, he can cultivate and travel at the same time. He used to multitask, but now he’s fully immersed into his cultivation, yet somehow still able to keep up with us.”
“Unmatched talent, godly comprehension, and hard work.” Chen Bei said with a complicated expression, “If he doesn’t achieve great success, who will?”
Looking up at the twisted void overhead, the corners of his mouth twitched again: “The pressure from his celestial phenomenon, even though it’s already virtualized, the terrifying pressure it emits still gives me a heavy feeling of bearing a world on my shoulders. If he were to fully activate his celestial might on me, I fear I would be directly suppressed by him.”
“I’ve always been terrified!” Ran Xin agreed, “I always feel a great fear, as if the world is collapsing, time and space are being destroyed, and I could fall into ruin at any time. Thankfully, I’m constantly under this terrifying pressure, which has rapidly improved my martial arts cultivation. Otherwise, it would be impossible to reach the Seventh Layer in three years.”
She paused for a moment, then asked curiously: “How many realms do you think this guy has merged?”
“Not one hundred, but certainly eighty!” Chen Bei became even more complex, “The top realms that I can clearly feel include: space, world, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, life and death, light and darkness, infinity, creation, wind, thunder, wood, stars, sky, and destruction!”
“Inconceivable!”
He couldn’t help but feel shocked.
If it weren’t for traveling together with Jiang Ming, he would never believe that this guy had comprehended so many realms, and what was even more crucial was that all of them had come to fruition.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to imprint the void and control the power of Heaven and Earth.
“He’s definitely a son of Heaven!” Ran Xin murmured.
But at this moment, an extreme sense of sharpness suddenly appeared, piercing through the mind, piercing through time and space, impossible to resist or block by anything or any law.
The void above their heads was constantly twisting, but at this moment, it suddenly steadied.
As if it had been anchored. VIsit n0(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
The celestial phenomena became more and more stable, more and more terrifying, and finally materialized, forming a world around them.
The Martial Arts Domain appeared again.
Only this time, it was more real and more terrifying.
This made Chen Bei and Ran Xin both halt their steps and show shocked expressions. Under this pressure, they both felt as if they were unable to move.
Even so, she still felt an astounding pressure, as if the world was descending, making everything feel as insignificant as ants.
“Damn, is it that terrifying?” Chen Bei was shocked, continued to merge his mind with the void to resist, but was terrified to find out he couldn’t do so anymore.
The feeling he had was that this void already had a master.
He couldn’t merge his intent with Heaven and Earth, or control the Heavenly Domain Power anymore.
Chen Bei exerted limitless power, but under this pressure, he felt insurmountable. Rocks underneath his feet cracked, and the whole mountain seemed to sink into the earth.
The air turned viscous, making breathing difficult.
Chen Bei shuddered and looked pale.
He could not resist.
Hum...
A glow burst forth from his chest, creating a phantom world to barely block the Heavenly Phenomenon Pressure from Jiang Ming. However, it was clear that he could not resist for long.
“You’re incredible!” Chen Bei was astonished, “Even my Reincarnation World could barely resist. The Heavenly Domain Power you control is truly reaching the peak, surpassing the norm, and breaking the iron rules. Even the Eight Realm Experts wouldn’t be able to suppress you in this aspect, but you are just in the Sixth Realm. Damn, this is terrible!”
“I used to be able to compete with you, but now...”
“Under the Heavenly Domain, I’m suppressed, and my power will be severely weakened!”
“And then...”
Chen Bei couldn’t continue.
A punch?
A sword?
Spitting out thunder power?
“The gap is getting larger!” Chen Bei couldn’t help but sigh, “Being born in the same era as you is a tragedy for me, and also for Ye Bai, Shi Lei!”
“We all have the potential to suppress our peers, but as a result, there is you, a demon.”
“The Tianjiao of Tianjiaos, I can’t deny it!
Chen Bei felt a sense of despair.
“The road of Martial Arts, we have only just stepped into the threshold. The road ahead is long, who can tell whether it’s you who will have the last laugh or I who will reach the peak?” Jiang Ming retracted his breath, “Just for your demoralized words, you have utterly lost!”
“Lost? Hmph!” Chen Bei gritted his teeth, “If it were a life-and-death fight, I could die together with you!”
“Isn’t that right!” Jiang Ming laughed, “I’m already this powerful, and you can still drag me to die with you. Doesn’t it mean that you’re even more powerful?”
“Damn, Brother Jiang, I didn’t expect you to have such a way with words!” Chen Bei was speechless, but he also cheered up.
“You two guys, that’s enough!” Ran Xin shouted, “It’s time to go! Are we going into the city, or directly to the Back Mountain of the Academy?”
“Into the city, let’s go to the Academy first!” Jiang Ming decisively took the lead.
They headed for Chang’an South City Gate..
