Chapter 87

Compared to the steps of the other candidates, Yi Yun's steps seemed even more difficult and unsteady, which also determined that his speed would be much slower than others.

At this moment, the successors cultivated by the small tribes and the elites of the Tao family had mostly walked within twenty steps.

There were still some who were struggling, striving to qualify.

"This little slave actually moved, but he is so weak that he can't go far at all."

Lian Chengyu glanced at Yi Yun and then looked away. He raised his head, gazing at the huge shadow of the wild beast in the sky, gritted his teeth, and without wiping the sweat from his forehead, continued to move forward.

The closer he got to the beast horn of the Sky Roaring Tiger, the greater the pressure became. Lian Chengyu's steps also became increasingly difficult. He looked at the distance to the beast horn, about twelve steps away. He knew that when he stepped into the tenth step range, he would inevitably face a sudden and terrifying increase in pressure. Without mental preparation, he would be directly pushed away by the force.

Just now, an elite of the Tao family failed in this way.

Among all the people, the only one who successfully entered the ten-step range was Tao Yunxiao!

Lian Chengyu had to admit that Tao Yunxiao, in terms of both strength and spirit, was superior to himself.

Tao Yunxiao, as a fourteen-year-old child, was incredibly arrogant, but this arrogance was also a manifestation of his spirit!

At this moment, Yi Yun, the slowest one, was also slowly approaching the twenty-step range.

"Teacher, he is about to qualify."

Lin Xintong spoke, and Old Su pinched his beard and said, "This is just the preliminary selection for the Divine Kingdom election. Qualifying here doesn't mean much, but..."

Old Su focused his mind and carefully observed Yi Yun, "This kid seems to be up to something..."

"Hmm?" Lin Xintong was taken aback.

"His strength has increased!"

Old Su said abruptly, "Since he started walking towards the beast horn, his cultivation has been slowly improving. Strange..."

Old Su stroked his chin. His small eyes had incredible vision. Even from a distance of several dozen feet, he could clearly see the condition of Yi Yun's flesh and blood, naturally noticing the changes in the energy within Yi Yun's body.

If it weren't for the mysterious nature of the purple crystal, which exceeded Old Su's perception range, Old Su would have seen a startling scene: countless light points in the sky, like a hundred birds flying towards a phoenix, heading towards Yi Yun.

Twenty steps!

Yi Yun finally stepped onto the twenty-step boundary. He had qualified.

Every person who stepped into the twenty-step qualifying line would attract attention, and Yi Yun was no exception.

Several members of the Lian family's warrior training camp had already retreated more than a hundred steps to a "safe distance." Seeing that Yi Yun had also qualified, they were very indignant.

This kid, who clearly couldn't hold on any longer and seemed about to collapse with one more step, had just qualified!

The heavens were blind, this little wretch's spirit was actually stronger than all of theirs!

Buzz, buzz, buzz

At this moment, the energy in Yi Yun's body seemed to have reached its peak. The purple crystal in his heart pulsed repeatedly, absorbing and compressing this energy.

Blood trickled from the corners of Yi Yun's mouth, and the veins on his body bulged as if they were about to burst!

Just a little more, just a little more!

Yi Yun gritted his teeth and was about to take another step when, at this moment, the Sky Roaring Tiger in the sky suddenly opened its amber eyes, like a sword sweeping in all directions!

"Roar!"

The Sky Roaring Tiger let out a long roar to the sky. At that moment, the vast energy contained in the beast horn erupted like a volcano, shooting straight into the clouds!

"Ahh!!" Lian Chengyu let out a惨叫, the sudden change increased the pressure dramatically. Lian Chengyu felt as if a heavy hammer had struck his chest. He grunted and was directly thrown back!

The Sky Roaring Tiger was named for its terrifying roar, which could roar to the sky!

This was just the shadow of the Sky Roaring Tiger. If it were a living adult Sky Roaring Tiger, one roar could kill thousands of human soldiers!

The other elites of the Tao family were in a similar situation to Lian Chengyu. The sudden power of the Sky Roaring Tiger's shadow spread like a shockwave in all directions. They were caught off guard and had no time to react, resulting in being pushed away by the shockwave!

Some who were already at their limits even felt a sweetness in their throats and spat out blood, clearly unable to continue.

At this moment, Tao Yunxiao demonstrated his powerful strength and confidence. Although he was pushed back and his face turned pale, he only knelt on one knee, barely managing to stay upright!

"Good! Good! Thrilling! I will conquer you today!"

Tao Yunxiao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes gleaming with excitement. Now, no one was competing with him; he only had to defeat himself.

Just as Tao Yunxiao was about to stand up and continue, a bone-cracking sound suddenly came from behind him!

"Crack, crack, crack!"

The sound was as clear as an eggshell breaking, making one's heart race!

"Hmm!?"

Tao Yunxiao suddenly turned around, looking for the source of the sound.

He saw a youth, drenched in sweat as if he had just emerged from water, half-squatting on the ground, his muscles trembling and quivering!

This muscle tremor was not out of fear under the immense pressure but because it contained powerful energy, making the muscles vibrate with excitement.

The energy in Yi Yun's meridians rapidly circulated. In the instant the Sky Roaring Tiger roared, the pressure reached its peak, and the fierce energy shockwave swept over Yi Yun's body, like a rapid collision with a wall.

In that instant, the energy constraint in Yi Yun's body was broken!

A vortex formed in Yi Yun's heart, and countless light points surged towards him like a whale drinking water.

"Boom!"

The energy exploded, the rock under Yi Yun's feet shattered, and he suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze like lightning.

Peak Qi Induction, I have finally broken through to Peak Qi Induction!

From now on, I am only one step away from the Purple Blood Realm!

"What's going on with this kid?"

With Tao Yunxiao's insight and perceptiveness, he couldn't see what had happened to Yi Yun.

In the center of the field, Zhang Tan felt it. Although he had not yet reached the Heaven-Opening Eye realm, he could still judge from his experience that Yi Yun had broken through to a new realm.

"This kid, he actually broke through the realm under the pressure of the Sky Roaring Tiger's beast horn?" Zhang Tan was somewhat surprised and then showed an interested look, "Interesting! Interesting! Most people find it hard to bear the pressure, feeling that a moment is as long as a day, wishing the test would end sooner. But this kid actually took advantage of this opportunity to gain a great benefit. Ha, interesting!"

Zhang Tan had a feeling that this kid would likely achieve something in the future!

Yi Yun clenched his fists and took deep breaths. He felt that every breath he took had a faint fragrance, refreshing and invigorating. His saliva was like a sweet spring, nourishing his body when swallowed.

Reaching the peak of Qi Induction, one step away from the Purple Blood Realm, he felt the world becoming clearer. His perception of the surrounding environment improved even further.

Not only that, he felt an inexhaustible strength throughout his body, as the elemental energy from the surrounding environment seeped into his body through his 36,000 pores!

A martial artist at the peak of Qi Induction can easily absorb energy from the surrounding environment. Although they may not reach the level of abstaining from food, they can survive for a long time in the absence of food.

"This is Peak Qi Induction, so refreshing!"

Yi Yun clenched his fists. Suddenly, he sensed something and slightly turned his head, his gaze colliding with another person's.

This person was Lian Chengyu!

Yi Yun and Lian Chengyu, separated by several dozen feet, looked at each other!
