The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
He is only at the 7th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm, yet not only did he not die, he can still stand on the platform!” “…” The entire arena instantly erupted into an uproar! Now only Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi, who are at the 9th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm, remain on the platform.” “But he… who is only at the 7th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm… has actually endured until now!” While everyone was still shocked and confused, Tan Yun continued circulating his spiritual power to resist th...
“Ahh… I can’t endure it anymore!”
Just as a young girl was filled with panic and despair, that moment happened to come to an end. The freezing cold that covered the Creation Platform suddenly disappeared.
After shattering the purple ice that had encased her body, the girl—whose appearance was extremely disheveled—immediately ran off the Creation Platform.
She… had finally survived!
“Father, I have disappointed you… I truly cannot continue!”
“Grandfather, I really can’t endure it anymore…”
“…”
On the Creation Platform, the other 9 young men and women whose spiritual power was nearly exhausted shouted in despair and regret before quickly fleeing the platform.
Their hearts were filled with pain because they knew that only 1 final round of the test remained.
But since their spiritual power had already run dry, they had no choice but to surrender!
At this moment, the gazes of the millions of people in the arena were focused on Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi, while whispers spread endlessly among the crowd.
“Who do you think will win in this final stage, the Young City Lord or Young Master Liang?”
“Both the Young City Lord and Young Master Liang are geniuses of Meteorite City. It’s truly hard to say who will win…”
Almost no one paid any attention to Tan Yun, who was still covered in purple ice.
In their eyes, Tan Yun was probably already on the verge of death!
But what happened next…
Left the entire arena staring with their mouths wide open as if they had seen a ghost!
“Bang… Rumble!”
The purple ice shattered apart!
The figure of Tan Yun appeared before everyone. Although he looked extremely battered and disheveled,
it was obvious that…
he had not suffered the slightest injury!
“Th-this is impossible!”
“That’s right! It’s unbelievable! He is only at the 7th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm, yet not only did he not die, he can still stand on the platform!”
“…”
The entire arena instantly erupted into an uproar!
The pupils of Wang Tianyou, the City Lord, and Liang Xiao, the Liang Clan Patriarch, suddenly contracted.
The two glanced coldly at Tan Yun, a flash of killing intent appearing in their eyes!
They realized that…
Tan Yun was becoming a threat to their beloved sons!
“Whoosh!”
Mu Mengyi’s slender body trembled slightly as she suddenly stood up from her seat.
Her beautiful eyes stared firmly at Tan Yun, filled with extreme shock!
Her mind was full of doubts and countless questions.
“Since the beginning of the trial, many clan members at the 8th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm have been injured or killed. Now only Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi, who are at the 9th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm, remain on the platform.”
“But he… who is only at the 7th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm… has actually endured until now!”
While everyone was still shocked and confused,
Tan Yun continued circulating his spiritual power to resist the immense pressure while closing his eyes and focusing on sensing the abnormality within his left palm.
He could clearly feel that the Primordial Ice Flame sleeping in his left palm had begun to show signs of awakening.
It felt like a tiny sprout about to break through the soil!
“Damn it… just a little bit more!”
Tan Yun complained inwardly with regret.
“If that Ice Flame Spirit Tiger had released the purple ice for just another 1/2 round, my Primordial Ice Flame would have broken through into the early stage of Level 1, and I would have been able to control the ice flame to leave my body!”
Although he felt extremely regretful, a faint smile still appeared at the corner of his lips.
Even though the Primordial Ice Flame had not yet advanced into the early stage of Level 1, it could already be used in battle!
“I announce that this selection now has only 1 final round remaining!”
Mu Mengyi withdrew her gaze from Tan Yun, then looked up at the Ice Flame Spirit Tiger and spoke.
“You may begin!”
“ROAR! ROAR! ROAR!”
The moment the tiger’s roar sounded 3 times,
an even more terrifying pressure burst forth from its enormous head,
completely enveloping Tan Yun, Wang Fuchen, and Liang Qidi!
Wang Fuchen, Liang Qidi, and Tan Yun all unleashed their spiritual power to resist the overwhelming pressure.
But even so, the bodies of all 3 people trembled violently, with veins bulging across their faces!
Before long, the skin on their necks, hands, legs, and entire bodies began to crack, like blood-red spiderwebs spreading across their flesh, creating a horrifying sight!
The eyes of all 3 men turned bloodshot, as fresh blood slowly seeped out from the cracks on their faces!
Even though the pain was as intense as if their bodies were being torn apart,
none of the 3 let out even the slightest groan!
“Crack… crack…”
The sound of bones creaking came from the legs of all 3 of them.
The blood-red eyes of Wang Fuchen and Liang Qidi revealed undisguised panic!
Both of them knew that if they continued standing until the final moment,
their legs would definitely break!
“Bang! Bang!”
The 2 of them knelt down almost at the same time without hesitation.
The moment they knelt down, the pressure decreased slightly.
If things continued like this, they might actually be able to endure until the end of the trial!
In their hearts, both of them silently swore
that no matter what happened, they would endure until the very end!
But when the 2 of them looked up—
their pupils suddenly contracted!
They saw that Tan Yun, whose entire body was soaked in blood, was trembling violently under the immense pressure.
Yet he…
showed absolutely no intention of kneeling!
“Hm?”
Mu Mengyi looked at Tan Yun, her slender brows slightly furrowing, her expression filled with surprise.
She thought to herself,
“If he simply kneels, he can reduce the pressure. Then why is he unwilling to kneel?”
At this moment, the gazes of everyone were fixed on Tan Yun.
Everyone… was utterly confused!
Tan Yun’s expression was resolute. His deep black eyes stared directly at the Ice Flame Spirit Tiger.
His heart was as firm as steel.
“In the eyes of ordinary people, humans should kneel to the Heavens, the Earth, and their parents.”
“But I, Tan Yun, kneel only to my grandfather and my parents!”
“Even that damned Heaven, I have never once thought of kneeling to it!”
“Let alone a mere Level 2 growth-stage demonic beast!”
“Unless this pressure crushes my legs and breaks them, otherwise…”
“I will never kneel!”
As this thought appeared—
“Crack… crack…”
Soft sounds of bones cracking came from Tan Yun’s legs.
His knees began to be violently crushed by the immense pressure!
Fresh blood burst out from his knees,
dyeing his robe crimson before dripping onto the ground and gathering into a pool of blood!
“Crack… crack…”
The sound of bones nearing fracture echoed throughout Tan Yun’s entire body.
Under the overwhelming pressure, his spine and legs slowly bent downward uncontrollably!
“His willpower is indeed strong, but in a situation like this, such strength is nothing more than foolishness.”
Mu Mengyi gently shook her head, a trace of disdain flashing across her eyes.
She was certain that—
Tan Yun would eventually kneel!
In her mind,
no cultivator below the 9th level of the Spirit Embryo Realm could stand under the pressure of the Ice Flame Spirit Tiger!
“ROAR!”
Tan Yun clenched his fists tightly, lowered his head, and released a deep roar like a wild beast!
Suddenly—
his bending legs and curved spine
slowly straightened again!
He stood firmly upon the Creation Platform,
like a stone statue torn apart until its skin and flesh split open!
Under the shocked gazes of the crowd,
he continued to withstand the immense pressure!
“What a powerful body…”
Mu Mengyi murmured softly, her expression beginning to waver!
“ROAR!”
Tan Yun’s actions seemed to enrage the Ice Flame Spirit Tiger.
Before Mu Mengyi could issue a command,
it immediately opened its hideous mouth filled with blood-red color!
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
In an instant, 3 crimson fireballs with a diameter of 10 ft shot out from its mouth,
then transformed into 3 blazing Fire Spirit Tigers, each 10 ft tall!
The moment the 3 flaming tigers appeared on the Creation Platform,
an overwhelming wave of heat surged toward Tan Yun, Wang Fuchen, and Liang Qidi!
“ROAR!”
The 3 fire tigers roared loudly before charging toward the 3 of them!
“This is part of the trial. Dodging is forbidden!”
Mu Mengyi spoke in a firm voice that allowed no refusal!
The moment she finished speaking—
the 3 fire tigers immediately swallowed Tan Yun and the other 2 into their bellies!
