The Supreme Being Against Heaven

Zhong Wushiyao calmed her emotions before looking at Tan Yun with gentle eyes.

“The Liu family was the one in the wrong first. I will do my best to persuade my elder brother so that he won’t make things difficult for you again. Ya Wen… don’t worry.”

“Mmm.” Tan Yun nodded before asking, “Shiyao, what are your plans next?”

Zhong Wushiyao did not answer immediately. Instead, she asked back with a faint smile.

“What about you?”

“13 days ago, I touched the barrier of the Nascent Soul Realm. Now I want to immediately enter closed-door cultivation,” Tan Yun replied.

“In that case, I will cultivate while guarding you,” Zhong Wushiyao said with a sweet smile. Her beauty was so captivating that it could easily mesmerize anyone.

After speaking, she helped Tan Yun into the cave and assisted him onto a stone platform.

Tan Yun sat cross-legged, forming a mudra with both hands in front of his chest, then began circulating the Primordial Qi Condensation Technique.

In an instant—

The dense spiritual energy of heaven and earth throughout the mountains and forests suddenly churned like a raging torrent, frantically converging and continuously pouring into the cave.

All the spiritual energy rushed into Tan Yun’s spiritual pool between his brows and rapidly transformed into strands of faint golden spiritual power.

Zhong Wushiyao’s eyes widened at the sight.

The spiritual energy flooding into the cave like a storm left her completely stunned.

10 days ago, Tan Yun had been covered in wounds. 3 ribs on the right side of his chest were broken, and even his soul had suffered severe injuries.

Originally, she thought that Tan Yun would need at least 1–2 months to recover from his external injuries, and perhaps several more months before regaining consciousness.

However—

In just 6 days, his external injuries and broken ribs had completely healed.

And in only 10 days, he had already awakened!

That alone had already shocked her greatly.

But what shocked her even more—so much that it almost made her feel fearful—

Was Tan Yun’s speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Even though he was only at the Great Perfection of the Spirit Embryo Realm.

His absorption speed was actually 3 parts faster than hers, even though she was already at the 1st level of the Nascent Soul Realm!

“Could he actually be some kind of monster…?”

Zhong Wushiyao muttered to herself while staring at Tan Yun without blinking.

Suddenly—

Tan Yun, who was sitting cross-legged, slightly curled the corner of his mouth and teased,

“Do I really need to tell you whether I’m a monster?”

“In my eyes, you are a monster,” Zhong Wushiyao laughed softly.

“Cultivate in peace. I also need to begin cultivating.”

After saying that, she sat cross-legged inside the cave, closed her eyes, and began absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth as well.

Noon.

After continuously absorbing spiritual energy for 3 hours,

Tan Yun’s spiritual pool had already become completely filled with spiritual power.

His expression immediately turned serious as he began absorbing spiritual energy with all his might.

He officially began breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm!

At that moment—

Inside his spiritual pool, which spanned 100 zhang, the faint golden spiritual energy that floated like clouds began to gather above the first spirit embryo, which resembled a dry well.

Soon after, the faint golden spiritual energy began weaving together.

At a speed visible to the naked eye, it gradually condensed and transformed into drops of faint golden spiritual liquid.

Those droplets then began to fall—

Like a drizzle of rain.

They poured into the spirit embryo, which had a diameter of 1 zhang and a depth of 0.5 zhang.

If anyone were to witness Tan Yun’s speed of converting spiritual energy into liquid at this moment—

They would undoubtedly be shocked.

Because his speed…

Was 10 times faster than that of ordinary cultivators!

10 days later

The spiritual liquid inside Tan Yun’s first spirit embryo had completely filled to the brim.

“Spiritual liquid… transform into an infant!”

In an instant—

The spiritual liquid inside the spirit embryo seemed to come alive.

It began slowly rotating.

Soon, all the liquid gathered together and formed a tiny human figure sitting cross-legged.

A faint golden glow radiated from its entire body.

The small human figure formed from the liquid gradually solidified little by little.

2 days later

It completely transformed into a Nascent Soul that looked exactly like Tan Yun.

The Nascent Soul sat cross-legged inside the spirit embryo that resembled a dry well.

Completely motionless, like a stone statue.

Suddenly—

At the very moment when the spirit embryo, which resembled a dry well, rapidly shattered and disappeared,

Tan Yun’s first Primordial Nascent Soul suddenly opened its eyes!

Its eyes were as deep as the ocean, releasing 2 beams of chaotic light.

When the light withdrew, the eyes returned to their primordial state, containing a terrifying and awe-inspiring power.

This was—

The Primordial Nascent Soul.

A power that transcends the laws of all attributes!

Unique across the heavens and countless realms.

Impossible to replicate!

The birth of the first Primordial Nascent Soul meant—

Tan Yun had completely stepped into the 1st level of the Nascent Soul Realm!

“Boom!”

Tan Yun, who was sitting cross-legged on the stone platform, suddenly had his jet-black hair violently fluttering.

A terrifying aura instantly erupted from his body!

“Tan Yun, be careful! A powerful enemy at the 2nd level of the Nascent Soul Realm has arrived!”

Zhong Wushiyao immediately stood up in shock.

But in the next second, when she realized that the aura actually came from Tan Yun himself—

Her delicate body trembled violently.

Her beautiful eyes stared at him without blinking.

“The 1st level of the Nascent Soul Realm? How is that possible!”

Zhong Wushiyao’s heart was filled with immense shock.

If she had not witnessed it with her own eyes—

She would never believe that Tan Yun could break through from the Great Perfection of the Spirit Embryo Realm to the 1st level of the Nascent Soul Realm in just 13 days!

What made it even harder for her to accept was—

Even though Tan Yun had only just reached the 1st level of the Nascent Soul Realm…

The aura of power he released…

Instead… it was clearly stronger than hers!

“This is too shocking… you monster!”

Zhong Wushiyao could not help but mutter.

Seeing that Tan Yun still had not opened his eyes, she took a deep breath and calmed herself.

Then she sat down cross-legged once more.

She hoped that she would soon be able to sense the barrier of the 2nd level of the Nascent Soul Realm.

After breaking through to the 1st level of the Nascent Soul Realm,

Tan Yun gathered his focus, held his breath, and entered a deep meditative state.

Then his consciousness entered the Primordial Heart floating above the spiritual pool.

Inside the vast Primordial World,

Tan Yun stood in midair like the lord of this world.

Walking across the sky, he looked down at the boundless ocean of primordial divine liquid below.

Then he raised his head and burst into loud laughter.

“Hahaha!”

“At last… this day has finally arrived!”

He was extremely excited!

Because after entering the Nascent Soul Realm,

he could cultivate the 2nd stage of the Primordial Tyrant Body — Bone and Muscle Refinement!

Once he completed the early phase of this stage,

his body would become as tough as a low-grade spirit weapon!

And when using his full strength—

he could tear apart a low-grade spirit weapon with his bare hands!

Tan Yun clearly knew that

every time he broke through to a higher realm,

he would be able to devour 10 streams of Primordial Divine Liquid

to refine his bones and muscles.

And only after reaching the 3rd level of the Nascent Soul Realm

would he be able to fully complete the initial phase of the 2nd stage of the Primordial Tyrant Body.

“Power…”

“I need immense power!”

“Power without equal!”

Tan Yun’s expression became resolute.

Suddenly—

10 streams of Primordial Divine Liquid surged up from the ocean like 10 dragons.

Then they continuously flowed into the space between Tan Yun’s brows.

The 10 streams of Primordial Divine Liquid split into 5 smaller streams each.

They flowed through his throat, through both arms,

and rushed directly toward his palms!

The process of refining Tan Yun’s hand bones had begun!

“AAAAAH!”

A painful scream echoed throughout the entire cave.

Dust scattered everywhere.

“Tan Yun! What happened to you!”

Zhong Wushiyao immediately stood up in shock.

All she could see was—

Tan Yun enduring extreme suffering.

His eyes had turned blood-red.

His handsome face was twisted in agony.

Blue veins bulged across his face in a terrifying manner.

He spoke in a trembling voice.

“I… am cultivating… I’m fine…”

Hearing this,

Zhong Wushiyao’s heart, which had only just calmed down, tightened again.

Her face instantly turned pale.

She pointed at Tan Yun’s hands in panic.

“Tan Yun… your hands!”

In her eyes—

Both of Tan Yun’s hands suddenly appeared with cracks like spider webs.

Then—

The flesh and blood on his hands tore apart and fell away,

leaving behind only terrifying blood-colored bones!

“Tan Yun!”

Zhong Wushiyao was so frightened she nearly lost her sanity and rushed forward.

But Tan Yun, whose face was twisted in pain, suddenly shouted to stop her.

“Don’t come closer!”

“Don’t worry, this is my cultivation method!”

“At most… 5 days, and my hands will recover!”

As soon as he finished speaking,

large beads of sweat covered Tan Yun’s forehead from the intense pain.

At the same time—

the bones inside his hands began shattering piece by piece.

Like cracked porcelain.

Starting from the 10 fingertips…
