Chapter 406: Willpower Collapse!

Looking at the hint of pride in Li Qingxue's eyes, Meng Yunxi felt a mix of laughter and tears. Just a few days ago, Yang Tian had gifted her dozens of drops, yet Li Qingxue was so smug over merely three.

"That bitch is cheating!" Yun'er fumed, her jade-like hands clenched, itching to strangle Li Qingxue.

She swallowed a drop of Earth Core Milk, and the weak aura within her surged, her mouth and nose emitting vigorous essence, her recovery speed astonishing.

"This is a rare treasure of heaven and earth, with such abundant vitality that it can extend one's lifespan," an old man on the verge of death muttered inwardly, his heart burning with desire.

Seeing this, Yang Tian shook his head slightly and said flatly, "So this is your trump card? I have to say, it's quite naive."

Hearing this, Li Qingxue sneered coldly, a hint of mockery appearing on her face. But before the smile could linger, it faded, replaced by a look of horror.

In Yang Tian's hand was a bottle several times larger than hers. He shook the jade bottle, letting five or six drops of Earth Core Milk fall. The wound on his chest healed frantically under the tidal wave of essence.

"How can he have so much?!" someone exclaimed, stunned, eyes wide with disbelief.

"That bottle of divine liquid must contain a hundred drops! How is that possible?!" an old man fumed, gritting his teeth.

Yang Tian grinned, revealing a row of white teeth. He swallowed another three drops, and the vigorous essence surged through his body like a great wave, his vitality climbing to terrifying heights!

"What a waste! Damn him!" a strong man lost his composure, feeling the urge to kill Yang Tian. Each drop of divine liquid was precious, yet Yang Tian had consumed so many in one go.

If they knew that Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing devoured dozens of drops daily to break through to the Transformation Stage, what expressions would they have?

Fatty scratched his bird's nest of hair, drool nearly dripping from his lips. He rubbed his pudgy hands and muttered, "This guy hoards good stuff and doesn't share. How infuriating!"

"Indeed infuriating, keeping it all to himself!" Xiao Ji fumed. No wonder Yang Tian's cultivation advanced so quickly—such a vast amount of divine liquid was an extreme rarity, immensely beneficial to the body.

"It seems the divine liquid from the auction and the bets were all taken out by this little beast," Li Cheng said, taking a deep breath, unusually calm.

Because he knew clearly that these things would soon belong to the Li family! As long as they killed Yang Tian, they would be within easy reach!

Li Qingxue was utterly shocked, frozen in the void. Her delicate body trembled slightly, and her mind plunged into an abyss from which she could not escape.

"Pathetic, losing your willpower!" Yang Tian laughed, looking at her trembling form in the void, a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"This fool!" Li Cheng's pupils contracted sharply, a shadow crossing his face. Li Qingxue had intended to slay Yang Tian to prove her will, but before even losing, her will was on the verge of collapse.

"That bitch! How dare she challenge Brother Yang?" Yun'er was delighted, her brows curving like crescent moons, beaming with joy as her pent-up frustration dissipated.

The experts were shaken. Many cast bemused glances at the Li family's high-ranking members. This battle was meant to wash away disgrace, yet it had turned into such a reversal.

"The Li family has truly suffered a great loss. Not only did they lose a promising son-in-law, but this genius girl is on the verge of losing her mind," an elder from the Ten Thousand Swords Holy Land said with a smile.

Once willpower collapses, no one can help her. Li Qingxue must break free on her own, or she will never progress in this life.

She remained silent in the high sky. Yang Tian clenched his fist and murmured, "She has a legacy within her. If I kill her, it might trigger the energy inside to attack."

At that moment, Yang Tian stomped his foot, leaping into the sky like a bolt of lightning, appearing before Li Qingxue.

Under the shocked gaze of the Li family members, Yang Tian swung his palm, striking her cheek heavily. With a sharp crack, Li Qingxue's body plummeted.

Yang Tian's eyes were sharp, his cold gaze fixed on Li Qingxue. His expression was icy, devoid of any emotion, and he instantly pursued her.

"How dare you!" The Li family elders roared in fury, unable to restrain themselves. Dozens of figures shot forward at a heart-stopping speed, striking at Yang Tian.

The sudden change shook the entire venue. The Li family was openly trying to kill Yang Tian, to keep him here forever!

"These old bastards can't hold back anymore. Fatty's going to make a fortune today!" He rubbed his pudgy hands, grinning widely, and burst into laughter.

"Hehe, I wonder what Yang Tian is looking for when he seeks out their mountain gate?" Xiao Ji scratched his head and couldn't help but smile.

Many figures stood up, including Yun'er, Xing Hao, Qing Yuan, Shangguan Hao, Qin Shi, Meng Yunxi, and Meng Tian—old friends of Yang Tian, as well as those who wished to fight him.

Bang! Yang Tian moved with incredible speed, delivering a whip kick that boomed through the void. It struck Li Qingxue's abdomen, sending her body flying off the battle platform.

In an instant, Yang Tian's eyes blazed with endless crimson light, accompanied by terrifying thunder. His battle intent soared to the heavens, and the essence he released boiled over.

The aura within Yang Tian seemed to awaken from slumber. A terrifying river of crimson waves rolled forth, roaring as if to split the sky, sweeping across the nine heavens.

There were also terrifying thunderbolts surging, divine light blazing like surging rivers and seas, waves splitting the sky—an extremely frightening scene.

"Such terrifying cultivation! Is he still in the Transcending Mortal realm?!" The old man from before was utterly shocked, his sesame-sized eyes wide open. He himself was a newly advanced War King, yet the energy in his dantian paled in comparison to Yang Tian's.

Many experts were stunned beyond words. Yang Tian's foundation was too terrifying. In the previous battle, he hadn't used his full strength, only his physical power.

The faces of the Li family's strong men burned with shame. It was a slap in the face—he had faced a newly breakthrough War Emperor genius girl without going all out, holding back many techniques.

Just as Li Qingxue was beginning to emerge from the abyss of her will, she sensed Yang Tian's change. Her face twisted, and she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, falling into a complete coma.

"Fall back! He's going to trigger the lightning tribulation!" At that moment, Li Cheng reacted instantly, bellowing. He remembered clearly how Yang Tian had used the tribulation to kill Li Xuan!

The experts who were moving changed expressions instantly, scattering in all directions like frightened rabbits, afraid to be a step too slow. They didn't want to die with this madman.

A terrifying heavenly might gradually spread across the void. The hearts of the experts trembled, and even some War Emperors felt fear, frantically retreating.

"He's breaking through, it seems he wants to use the lightning tribulation to blast open the formation!" Xiao Ji pursed his lips and couldn't help saying. It was an extremely bold idea.

"But even with the tribulation, Yang Tian's is only a War King's tribulation. It can't possibly break the formation," Fatty scratched his head in confusion.

"Have you forgotten what happened when we broke through in the primeval forest?" Xiao Ji shook his head slightly, a hint of fear in his eyes, and said.

"Damn, I forgot about that." Fatty slapped his forehead, also showing a trace of fear. The lightning tribulation they had triggered in the primeval forest was terrifying; the two of them had nearly perished.

Chaos reigned as everyone fled, escaping that place of trouble. A dark mass of people rushed outward.

Li Cheng's eyes were cold as he looked at Yang Tian and sneered, "Don't think you'll be as lucky as last time. We've set a net that even if you break through to War Emperor, you'll still die!"

Li Cheng was furious. He had wagered heavily on Yang Tian's loss, but now Yang Tian had won, leaving him with almost nothing but his underwear.
