The Beast Horde had been waiting for the news of Gu's failure, listening to the words of the Azure Bull and Spirit Cat, but now there was only silence. Even the gentle rustle of leaves in the breeze was distinctly audible. All the beasts could hardly believe what they had just heard: the powerful Forgiveness had been killed by a human. At that moment, the aura of the Shattered Seal Spirit had completely vanished from the World of Mortals, and even the Azure Bull felt that the Shattered Seal Spirit no longer existed.
He must be strong, thought the Azure Bull. But he couldn't quite grasp where that strength came from. Aside from being able to shatter spatial barriers with his power, other powerful beasts or cultivators could do that too. The thought left the Azure Bull in silence, as the concept of immense power lingered in his mind.
Earlier, during Gu's Great War with the Shattered Seal Spirit, both he and the Azure Bull had perceived everything through their Divine Sense. Why hadn’t they noticed that detail? How could a human cultivator, who hadn’t even reached the Golden Core Stage, possess such formidable offensive capabilities?
It was reminiscent of when he first engaged in close combat with the Shattered Seal Spirit; that was an attack style typical of beasts. Moreover, that guy had calculated against the Shattered Seal Spirit, pushing it into a Spatial Rift while successfully evading. There was no way such a weak human should have been capable of that.
Unless he was hiding his true strength. Could it be that he was at the peak of Foundation Establishment Stage?
The Azure Bull couldn’t bring himself to believe that guess. If someone could conceal their power before him, they would have to be at least one major realm above him. This would imply that this human cultivator might actually be a High Leg from the Transcendence Period. That speculation seemed absurd; if Gu truly possessed Transcendence Period strength, how could he have been cornered by a pack of wolves? How could he have been afraid of a mere Shaya Spirit?
Gu’s Pseudo Golden Core realm didn’t deny it. However, his Chaos Power’s attack strength surpassed that of Golden Core Stage cultivators, terrifyingly allowing him to fight against the Shattered Seal Spirit across two major realms. In terms of Pseudo Golden Core realm, aside from not having an extended lifespan, his strength would steadily increase as he continued to accumulate power.
Gu had been in the academy for two months now, using the Clear Light Sutra as a reference and improving almost every day—faster than anyone else. He possessed the accumulation of countless years as a Primordial Celestial Demon; although his memories were fragmented and incomplete, they still provided immense benefits to any cultivator. Coupled with his dual foundations of Light and Chaos, Gu's comprehension speed accelerated even further. What he lacked now was actual combat experience.
Since entering Flowing Cloud Realm, Gu had engaged in relentless battles. At this moment, he wasn’t in a hurry to advance towards Broken Wall; he needed to rest well. Lying in the cave of the Shattered Seal Spirit, he fell into a deep sleep. He couldn’t remember how long it had been since he last had a good night’s rest; ever since entering Lu State, his heart had unconsciously tightened.
Using hair shed by the Shattered Seal Spirit as a makeshift mattress, Gu fell asleep soundly. He didn’t know how long it had been before he finally woke up.
He was exhausted; he had fallen asleep without realizing it.
No matter what happened next, he could now believe in himself. Perhaps it was time to discuss Heavenly Ladder and whether he could pass through Extermination’s Liquid Essence; surely that would earn him recognition from the Spirit Tribe.
The Senior Sister suddenly felt that Gu Yi would not disappoint her. Her Junior Brother would surely scale the mountain and astonish the entire Demon Spirit realm, even the whole world. He was that kind of person; although he seemed indifferent on the surface, he truly cared more about those around him than anyone else.
After passing through Forgiveness, they would encounter two Broken Walls. The strength of the beasts in those layers would gradually approach the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage. The guardian, Extermination, was a powerful figure at the Transcendence Stage. It was said that no one had ever defeated a Transcendence Stage Demon Spirit without first stepping over the corpses of previous Exterminations to claim the throne.
The mention of Azure Bull darkened the previously optimistic expression of the Senior Sister. How could there be a Transcendence Stage beast? That was a gap as vast as the Celestial realm. Cultivators began to reshape their bodies at the Transcendence Stage, merging their Nascent Soul with their physical form. This process was known as Transcendence. The most significant mark of the Transcendence Stage was that every movement resonated with Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy. From that point on, cultivators would gradually shift from drawing upon Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy to controlling it. Once this process was perfected, they would become Mahayana Practitioners. During this period, they had to pass through four realms: Fusion, Refining Spirit, and Transcendence, each step representing a qualitative leap forward. It was impossible for Yi Dong to contend with someone at the Transcendence Stage.
Moreover, the guardian had been designated as Extermination. The Senior Sister suddenly recalled the guardian's name and looked towards Azure Bull, who understood what the beautiful girl meant and nodded slowly.
Extermination was called so because it annihilated all beasts that failed their challenges. Therefore, she could see that there were no Peak of Nascent Soul Demon Spirits left; those originally at the Nascent Soul Stage had been killed by him, allowing them to successfully challenge and strike against the Broken Wall ahead. Challenges demanded a price.
Stretching his arms and yawning, Yi Dong began to move towards the Broken Wall in Dongyi. It seemed he had rested for about two hours; the sun was already tilting towards the west, nearing sunset. He wondered if he could manage to climb over a Broken Wall in Dongyi before sunset tomorrow.
He believed that each Broken Wall had a powerful Guardian Spirit. When Bu Luo had led Gu Yi to confront the Broken Wall in Dongyi, they had seen the rushing waterfall and the waterfowl living nearby. Gu Zhi realized he was mistaken; this time he might not be able to fly again and would have to kick his way up the turbulent waterfall before him.
