Chapter 20  

Boom!

The mighty spiritual energy crazily gathered around Lu Zhen.

His body was like a vortex, crazily absorbing the spiritual energy from all directions.

Not long after the spiritual energy gathered, a blast of power was emitted from Lu Zhen’s body.

This was a terrifying power that was several times stronger than the Qi Gathering Realm. Lu Zhen had successfully entered the Qi Sea Realm!

At the same time.

The mysterious stone tablet once again cast down a hazy light that enveloped him.

Soon, a line of golden characters appeared on the mysterious stone tablet: Black-Level Lower-Rank Star Shattering Slash!

“Black-level lower-rank! It’s another black-level lower-tank martial art!”

“It’s the Star Shattering Slash known for its explosive power!”

“Number one! Senior Brother Lu Zhen is truly the number one person in the outer sect!”

“Who still dares to question Senior Brother Lu Zhen’s identity as the number one outer disciple?”

“Two black-level martial arts and one yellow-level upper-rank martial art. With such talent, who can surpass him in a hundred years?”

“Hehe, now those who support Su Chen should shut up.”

“For those junior brothers and sisters who doubt that Senior Brother Lu Zhen is not the number one person in the outer sect, if you have the ability, go and comprehend three martial arts!”

“This is the strength of the number one person in the outer sect!”

Lu Zhen’s supporters broke into cheers.

Some outer sect disciples who supported Lu Zhen looked at Cao Yun, He Jing, and the others with complacency, their expressions full of provocation.

The outsiders would think that they had comprehended the black-level martial arts.

“Number one? Hehe… Do you think that just because he broke through to the Qi Sea Realm and comprehended two black-level lower-rank and one yellow-level upper-rank martial arts, he can remain untouchable as the number one in the outer sect?”

Cao Yun glanced indifferently at the disciples without any change in his countenance and continued, “In front of a cultivator who has entered the Forbidden Stage in the Qi Gathering Realm, anybody who has just broken through to the Qi Sea Realm is nothing! Where did you get the confidence to say that he’s the number one in the outer sect?”

After knowing that Su Chen had entered the Forbidden Stage, Cao Yun specially went to the Scripture Pavilion to read many ancient books about the Forbidden Stage.

In the end, he discovered that the cultivators who had entered the Forbidden Stage were stronger than he had imagined!

In the entire Eastern Barrens, there were countless cultivators, but those who could enter the Forbidden Stage in a certain realm were extremely rare.

Even in the long history of the Great Mystery Sect, there were no more than three disciples who could enter the Forbidden Stage in the Qi Gathering Realm!

There were many cultivators who were infinitely close to the Forbidden Stage, but they couldn’t go for goal shots.

The bottleneck to enter the Forbidden Stage was hundreds of times bigger than that to break through to the Qi Sea Realm!

However, once one entered the Forbidden Stage, their fighting power would be on par with a Qi Sea Realm cultivator, powerful enough to fight across realms and be invincible among those of the same realm!

“Hehe, you guys are so stubborn. I’ve heard you guys say that Su Chen has stepped into the Forbidden Stage time and time again, but who has ever seen him fight? Who has seen his true strength with their own eyes?”

“That’s right! No one has ever seen his strength of the Forbidden Stage. If he has really stepped into the Forbidden Stage, he should step forward and prove himself when being questioned!”

“I don’t think he dares!”

“Everything is just the imagination of these junior brothers and sisters.”

“Let Su Chen comprehend two black-level lower-rank and one yellow-level lower-rank martial arts if he can!”

These supporters became more confident because of the talent Lu Zhen displayed in the third test.

Lu Zhen had a strong cultivation base, having reached the grand attainment of the yellow-level upper-rank Phantom Moon and perfection of three or four yellow-level middle and lower-rank martial arts.

And now, he had comprehended three martial arts from the mysterious stone tablet, two of which were black-level lower-rank!

If it was in the previous outer sect trials, he would definitely be number one!

If nothing unexpected happened this time, he should get first place!

With such results, why couldn’t he be the number one in the outer sect?

“Prove? Why does Senior Brother Su Chen need to prove himself to you?”

Cao Yun asked with a cold expression.

These people repeatedly refused to believe that Su Chen had entered the Forbidden Stage, which made him feel a little unhappy.

“That’s right. Why does Senior Brother Su Chen need to prove it to you?”

He Jing raised her youngish face and looked at those who questioned Su Chen as she spoke in a clear voice.

“Even if Lu Zhen has broken through to the Qi Sea Realm, he is still not a match for senior brother Su Chen! With Senior Brother Su Chen’s strength, even if he doesn’t break through, he can still kill Lu Zhen in an instant!”

He Jing was a young girl who was grappling with her first feelings of romantic attraction. In the past three days, she received many pointers from Su Chen. Add to that Su Chen had the top-notch charm, and He Jing no longer had the same good feelings for him when they met for the first time.

Instead, she had the admiration that came from the bottom of her heart, as well as the feelings of affection between men and women.

He Jing was so protective of Su Chen that she had lost her mind!

“Junior Sister He Jing is right!”

“So what if Lu Zhen breaks through to the Qi Sea Realm? Senior Brother Su Chen is still powerful enough to seckill him!”

“They are just two black-level lower-rank martial arts. With Senior Brother Su Chen’s talent, he will definitely be able to comprehend the black-level upper-rank martial arts!”

“That’s true! Senior Brother Su Chen’s talent is unparalleled. He can comprehend two black-level upper-rank martial arts without any difficulty, not to mention two black-level lower-rank martial arts!”

He Jing wasn’t the only junior sister who had been attracted by Su Chen’s charm.

Other junior sisters also spoke up.

They had completely lost their minds and become hot-headed, bragging about Su Chen’s strength exaggeratedly.

The biggest beneficiary of this argument was Su Chen, who was standing on the spot with a dumbfounded expression.

This was because the virtual interface in front of him changed again.

[Seckilling Lu Zhen without a breakthrough: 1/160]

[Comprehending black-level upper-rank cultivation methods and martial arts: 1/80]

As soon as the virtual interface appeared, the numbers jumped at an extremely fast speed.

According to Su Chen’s own speculation, his current strength was not much different from that of?Lu Zhen who had just broken through to the Qi Sea Realm.

He had a certain chance of defeating Lu Zhen, but it was impossible to seckill Lu Zhen.

[Seckilling Lu Zhen without a breakthrough: 20/160]

[Comprehending black-level upper-rank cultivation methods and martial arts: 20/80]

Buzz…

The moment the second progress bar was full, another mass of mysterious and pure energy appeared in Su Chen’s mind.

It stayed quietly in his mind together with the previous one.

The quarrel between Lu Zhen’s supporters, Cao Yun, He Jing, and the others became more and more intense, and emotions were running high between the two sides.

The benefits of the quarrel were enjoyed by Su Chen alone. The first progress bar was also filling up at a fast speed.

“I think I understand why some fans in my previous life were so crazy…”

Su Chen looked at the quarreling crowd and could not help but sigh.

[Seckilling Lu Zhen without a breakthrough: 158/160]

[Seckilling Lu Zhen without a breakthrough: 159/160]

[Seckilling Lu Zhen without a breakthrough: 160/160]

Buzz…

In the blink of an eye, the first progress bar was fully filled.

Then, a deep insight into cultivation rushed into Su Chen’s mind.
