Chapter 569: Who Is Bullying Whom?

"Everyone, I'll take my leave first." Ye Yuan greeted Qin Yan and the other two, then directly entered the sixth level.

Qin Yan and the others looked at each other, at a loss for words.

At that moment, the phantom spirits that Ye Yuan had "killed" reappeared one by one.

"Are you still planning to attempt the levels? It seems... we have no hope at all!" Qin Yan said somewhat dejectedly.

Guo Taoqun gritted his teeth and said, "Since we're here, we can't retreat without a fight! I'll go first!"

With that, Guo Taoqun leaped into the formation.

...

"Ye Yuan really entered the sixth level! He has created the best result in a thousand years!"

"After entering the fourth level, his speed actually increased! He passed the fourth level in just a quarter of an hour, and the fifth level only took half a day. It's truly incredible."

"I wonder where his limit lies! I don't know if he can get through the sixth level. If he does, he will be the fifth martial artist in ten thousand years to enter the seventh level! Such a prodigy is unprecedented and unheard of!"

"That... seems unlikely, right? I heard that the guardian of the sixth level is even stronger than the challenger himself, and with the enhancement of the formation, it's simply impossible to get through!"

"Who knows? Not to mention far back, just within the Haotian Tower, how many miracles has Ye Yuan already created?"

The other person fell silent.

Indeed, just within the Haotian Tower, how many miracles had Ye Yuan already created?

Perfectly clearing the first three levels, he obtained three times the inheritance time of others.

Others got faster as they progressed, but after entering the fourth level, Ye Yuan's speed increased instead, breaking through two levels in just half a day.

Who could be sure that Ye Yuan wouldn't get through the sixth level?

Liu Hong stared blankly at the golden name, an overwhelming sense of defeat washing over him.

He had thought he was the most talented young man in the Boundless Realm, but there was always someone better. Ye Yuan's talent left him in the dust by several streets!

How laughable that he had previously considered himself extraordinary and dismissed the mysterious man's words.

Ye Yuan's performance in the Haotian Tower far outshone his own.

Not to mention the third level, even in the first level, Liu Hong wouldn't have dared to stay and kill all the demonic beasts!

At this moment, every step Ye Yuan took trampled on his self-esteem.

Soon... it would be crushed.

...

In the sixth level, Kuai Liang was already on high alert.

"Young man, what is your name? I am Kuai Liang; you may call me Brother Kuai."

Kuai Liang spoke his name to Ye Yuan for the first time.

In the past ten thousand years, he had only spoken to a handful of people.

And Ye Yuan was clearly the one he had spoken to the most.

"Junior Ye Yuan greets Brother Kuai!" Ye Yuan announced himself.

Kuai Liang nodded and said, "Ye Yuan, you are very good! No one has entered this sixth level in a thousand years. Even in the past ten thousand years, not many have managed to enter the sixth level. And you are the only one to have perfectly cleared all five previous levels!"

"Oh? Someone has entered the eighth level before; didn't he achieve a perfect clear?" Ye Yuan asked curiously.

That person named Li Fantian had gone even further than Lu Linfeng, and should have been an earth-shattering figure.

Such a genius should have been capable of a perfect clear.

But Kuai Liang shook his head and said, "He did achieve a perfect clear in the first four levels, but fell short in the fifth. So your talent surpasses his!"

Clearing a level and achieving a perfect clear are on completely different levels of difficulty. The fifth level was indeed exceptionally hard.

If Ye Yuan hadn't comprehended several true intents, perfectly clearing that level would not have been so easy.

Ye Yuan nodded but said with a wry smile, "But Brother Kuai, isn't it a bit bullying for you to guard the level at the Soul Sea Fourth Layer realm?"

Kuai Liang laughed heartily and said, "Your actual combat strength cannot be measured by realm. The levels set by the Haotian Tower are meant to test a martial artist's potential. You perfectly cleared the fifth level and killed our Soul Sea First Layer avatars, showing how strong you are. And I have a feeling you didn't go all out in the fifth level!"

Ye Yuan said helplessly, "Alright, Brother Kuai, please go easy on me later!"

"Hehe, going easy is out of the question! The stronger you are, the less we can go easy! This time, we will use our full strength in terms of artistic conception!" Kuai Liang laughed.

"Tsk, ruthless! Since Brother Kuai thinks so highly of me, I will naturally give it my all this time! But before that, Brother Kuai, would you allow me to first break through in cultivation?" Ye Yuan smiled.

Kuai Liang was startled: "Oh? You're about to break through again so soon? Fine, what harm is there in letting you break through?"

Ye Yuan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Brother Kuai!"

Without further ado, Ye Yuan gathered vast amounts of heaven and earth primal force and began breaking through to the Sea of Transformation Fifth Layer!

...

About an hour later, the storm subsided, and Ye Yuan's aura surged once more, finally breaking through to the Sea of Transformation Fifth Layer!

"Brother Kuai, sorry to keep you waiting!" Ye Yuan cupped his hands.

Kuai Liang looked at Ye Yuan with surprise: "You, a mere Sea of Transformation realm cultivator, have such momentum when breaking through a minor realm! If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought you were冲击 the Soul Sea realm!"

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Kuai flatters me. The cultivation technique I practice is somewhat special and requires a vast amount of primal force, so the breakthrough is a bit more dramatic."

A bit more dramatic? It was a lot more dramatic, wasn't it?

Kuai Liang nodded and said, "With such strength, the cultivation technique you practice must be extraordinary. It seems your inheritance is no simple matter; it's probably not something this small world could produce!"

Ye Yuan smiled, knowing he couldn't hide this from Kuai Liang's eyes, so he changed the subject: "Brother Kuai, let's begin!"

With that, Ye Yuan leaped up, about to land in the formation.

At the same time, the primal fire within Ye Yuan erupted violently. As he leaped, his aura burst forth again, and his realm continuously climbed.

By the time he landed in the formation, he had already directly broken through to the Sea of Transformation Seventh Layer!

Nine Transformations of the Primordial Spirit!

As Ye Yuan's realm gradually increased, the Nether Sandal Sacred Fire could no longer support his breakthrough of three minor realms. This breakthrough to the late Sea of Transformation was somewhat strained.

Fortunately, the Nether Sandal Sacred Fire was extremely powerful among fourth-grade primal fires, barely supporting his breakthrough.

Seeing this, Kuai Liang's eyes widened: "Good lad, you still have this trick! This martial skill is incredibly powerful, directly helping you break through to the late Sea of Transformation! I thought I could bully you this time, but now I feel like you're the one bullying me?"
