When Xiao Yun claimed the first place on the Dragon Ranking, challenging the strongest in history, a storm had already spread throughout the Chaos Holy Land from the Illusion Demon Tower.
Peak of the Heavens.
Elder Tianyi had long been in seclusion, attempting to break through to the Heavenly Realm.
Chu Jingxiao and Zhu Ping received the news about Xiao Yun's performance in the Illusion Demon Tower, and their expressions turned grim.
"I never expected that brat to be so strong. This time, when he enters the True Dragon Nest, he's bound to gain a lot," Zhu Ping said with concern. He worried that Xiao Yun would obtain some treasures inside the True Dragon Nest, which would aid Emperor Tian in ascending to the Heavenly Realm.
You see, over the years, Zhu Ping had been opposing Emperor Tian and bullying him since Emperor Tian's life force was dwindling, and he posed no threat.
But if Emperor Tian ascended to the Heavenly Realm, his lifespan would increase by 1,000 years, allowing him to rejuvenate and reach his peak again.
No, it would be surpassing the peak.
Emperor Tian, known as the number one saint son of the Chaos Holy Land, had already cultivated the half-step Chaos Body. Once he reached the Heavenly Realm, he might even be able to contend against saints and, at the very least, become invincible in the Heavenly Realm.
The thought of such a situation made Zhu Ping extremely worried.
Because at that time, even Tianyi would not be able to protect him.
Moreover, knowing Tianyi's character, he might even directly hand him over. After all, Zhu Ping had followed Tianyi for so long and knew that Tianyi was extremely selfish and self-serving.
"Hmph, let him be happy for now, but he won't be happy for long."
Suddenly, Chu Jingxiao sneered, piquing Zhu Ping's curiosity.
"Oh? Young Master, why do you say that?" Zhu Ping looked at Chu Jingxiao in surprise and asked.
Chu Jingxiao smirked, "My master told me that every time we enter the True Dragon Nest, the Tai Chu Holy Land will target disciples from our Chaos Holy Land. And in this generation, the Tai Chu Holy Land has given birth to a spacetime physique. He will definitely kill Xiao Yun inside the True Dragon Nest."
Zhu Ping suddenly realized the situation and nodded repeatedly. He sinisterly said, "Young Master is right. I almost forgot about the Tai Chu Holy Land. They certainly don't want our Chaos Holy Land to produce any peerless geniuses, so they will definitely try every means to eliminate that brat Xiao Yun."
Zhu Ping felt relieved in his heart.
No matter how strong Xiao Yun was, could he be stronger than the spacetime physique from the Tai Chu Holy Land?
You see, that person possessed the Supreme Body, a powerful special physique comparable to the Chaos Body.
Therefore, in this trip to the True Dragon Nest, Xiao Yun was destined to die inside.
...
Dongyu Peak.
This was the cave mansion of Dongyu Hall, a mighty existence in the Heavenly Realm.
And within Dongyu Hall, there was a disciple named Li Bufan, a saint son of the Chaos Holy Land.
To become a saint son, one must resonate with the Chaos Bell and possess unparalleled talent.
Li Bufan was such a peerless talent.
At a young age, Li Bufan had already surpassed the Godbridge Realm and entered the Cave Heaven Realm. His strength surpassed that of the entire inner disciples, comparable to those true disciples.
However, at this moment, Li Bufan was in a very bad mood because one of his followers had brought him bad news.
Xi Chunyu was going to follow Xiao Yun!
Li Bufan's eyes turned cold. He had pursued Xi Chunyu for so long, yet this wretched person was so ignorant that she chose that waste Xiao Yun.
Indeed, in Li Bufan's eyes, Xiao Yun was nothing but a waste.
After all, the difficulty of cultivating the "Chaos Scripture" was widely known.
Look at what happened to Emperor Tian back then. He was so dazzling and radiant, but because he cultivated the "Chaos Scripture," he became trapped in the Transcendent Realm. His former subordinates surpassed him one by one, turning him into a waste.
Li Bufan believed that Xiao Yun would end up the same way as Emperor Tian, becoming a waste.
And he, Li Bufan, is destined to become a powerful figure in the Heavenly Realm and may even step into the realm of Saints.
"Lowly person, since you are so ignorant, don't blame me for being impolite."
"Xiao Yun? Hmph, if you hadn't given up the position of Divine Son, I would still be wary of you. But now, you are no longer the Divine Son. In my eyes, you're no different from an ant."
"The woman I, Li Bufan, have set my eyes on cannot be taken away by anyone!"
...
Li Bufan's eyes were sinister, and he sneered a few times. He stood up and directly soared into the sky, heading towards the peak where the Illusion Demon Tower was located.
...
Inside the Illusion Demon Tower.
Xiao Yun sat on the ground, panting heavily, sweating profusely. He was operating the "Chaos Scripture" to restore the power he had just consumed.
Fortunately, the "Chaos Scripture" was extremely terrifying. In just a moment, Xiao Yun's strength had fully recovered to its peak.
"Do you want to continue the challenge?" The voice of the Illusion Demon resounded.
Xiao Yun twitched his mouth and quickly waved his hand, saying, "Forget it, it took me great effort to defeat the tenth-ranked historical strongest in the Body Refining Realm just now. This is already my limit."
Indeed, being able to defeat the tenth-ranked historical strongest in the Body Refining Realm was already Xiao Yun's limit.
Because that person possessed a second-order divine body, cultivated an ultimate martial technique and a super martial technique, and his strength reached 750,000 jin, 50,000 jin more than Xiao Yun, just like Xie Chunyu.
But that person's strength was much stronger than Xie Chunyu. With a strength of 750,000 jin, combined with his second-order divine body, he was like a god descending to the world, invincible in his might.
If it weren't for Xiao Yun cultivating seven ultimate martial techniques, he probably wouldn't have won.
And even if Xiao Yun won, the battle was much more difficult and consumed a lot more compared to his battle with Xie Chunyu.
However, this battle had also brought great gains to Xiao Yun, allowing him to truly experience the horror of a second-order divine body.
"Just a second-order divine body is already this strong. How terrifying would the Time-Space Body in the Tai Chu Sacred Ground be?"
Xiao Yun's heart was filled with seriousness at this moment, and he was no longer the least bit careless.
Clearly, he still needed to continue to work hard; otherwise, he would be unable to contend with those Supreme Bodies at all.
However, as long as he forged the Chaos Body, he would be invincible and no longer need to fear those Supreme Bodies.
Thinking of the Chaos Body, Xiao Yun immediately checked his system and was pleasantly surprised to find that his number of enlightenments had increased to 141.
"Hahaha, with so many enlightenments, I can immediately forge the Chaos Body when I return from the True Dragon's Nest." Xiao Yun was instantly filled with excitement.
If it weren't for going to the True Dragon's Nest, he would probably start seclusion and cultivate the "Chaos Scripture" right away.
However, in order to reach the level of his ancestor, Xiao Yun believed that he should first establish the strongest foundation in the Body Refining Realm.
That is, to elevate his strength to 1 million jin, on par with his ancestor.
Only by doing so could he become the strongest Chaos Body like his ancestor.
Otherwise, the Chaos Body would be no different from other Supreme Bodies, and that's not what Xiao Yun wants to see.
Xiao Yun has great ambitions. He believes that since he has the Chaos Body, he must become the strongest.
He wants to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Ancestor and even surpass the Ancestor so that he can sweep through the heavens and myriad realms, dominate the nine heavens and ten earths, and become invincible.
"It's time to go!"
After fantasizing for a while, Xiao Yun left the Illusion Demon Tower.
By now, the area outside the Illusion Demon Tower was already packed with people. Everyone was staring at the tower, waiting to see what would happen.
When Xiao Yun walked out of the Illusion Demon Tower, he immediately attracted everyone's attention. Excited gazes were all directed towards him.
Xiao Yun furrowed his brows slightly, feeling slightly embarrassed being watched by so many people.
However, when Xiao Yun saw a young woman in a purple dress standing at the forefront of the crowd, his eyes lit up with amazement.
"It's Xie Chunyu!"
Xiao Yun had seen Xie Chunyu's phantom clone inside the Illusion Demon Tower, so he recognized her.
But now, seeing Xie Chunyu's real body, Xiao Yun realized that she was even more beautiful than her phantom clone.
Her peerless appearance made the scenery of the mountain peak pale in comparison. With the gentle breeze blowing, her purple dress danced, outlining her graceful figure, like a fairy descending from the moon palace, embodying the beauty of heaven and earth.
"Hmph!" Lin Xiaoya, who was standing beside Xiao Yun, noticed him staring at Xie Chunyu and immediately pouted unhappily, giving a cold snort.
Uncle Fu stood by, smiling as he watched Xiao Yun. He couldn't help but feel emotional. That was the historical tenth-ranked powerhouse, a true figure who left a mark in history!
"Senior Brother Xiao!"
Just then, Xie Chunyu walked forward with light steps. Her slender figure swayed, her black hair lightly dancing, like an immortal in the mortal world.
"I once swore that whoever could defeat my phantom clone, I would follow them. Now, Senior Brother Xiao, you have defeated my phantom clone. Would you be willing to accept me as your follower?" Xie Chunyu stared at Xiao Yun, her eyes shining brightly, radiating a captivating charm.
Honestly, facing the favor of such an extraordinary beauty, Xiao Yun couldn't think of any reason to refuse her.
If he dared to refuse, he would probably be bombarded by countless readers for his Chaos Body.
Therefore, Xiao Yun sincerely smiled and said, "Thank you for your favor, Junior Sister Xie. Let us encourage and verify the Great Dao together in the future."
Xie Chunyu smiled happily upon hearing his words, feeling relieved. She had also been worried about being rejected by Xiao Yun, which would have been quite embarrassing.
"Xie Chunyu, I won't allow you to follow a useless person!"
Just then, a thunderous roar came from the sky, shaking the entire mountain peak and causing the surrounding trees to sway.
In the next moment, a figure clad in crimson descended from the sky. He exuded a majestic aura that pressured everyone present.
All heads turned to look, immediately recognizing the identity of this person.
It was the Divine Child, Li Bufan!
