He cannot be allowed to succeed!

Liån Qngtiän made a decision imdiately.

The terrifying strength displayed by the opponent who hadn’t yet stepped into the Heavenly Rank had already given him a considerable headache. If he allowed the foe to break through, the terror would be unimaginable.

The very next mont, 1–1b Liån Qngtiän decisively made his move.

What no one expected was that he voluntarily disbanded the battle array and deliberately lifted the barriers to the Heaven and Earth.

Then, retracting his lance, he waved his arms, stirring enormous amounts of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, directing it right toward Pei Xuanjing.

This thick Heaven and Earth Essence Qi ca surging in like rampant tidal waves.

Boom!

Within an instant, the density of the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi surrounding Pei Xuanjing exponentially increased due to Hé Liån Qngtiän’s intervention.

The originally gaseous Heaven and Earth Essence Qi now had the chance to take on a liquid -like form due to its increased density.

However, 1–1& Liån Qngtiän didn’t offer this assistance out of goodwill for Pei Xuanjing’s breakthrough.

“With such dense Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth, you will burst alive if you cannot handle it!” a savage look flashed in Hé Liån Qngtiän’s eyes.

As a warrior experienced in breaking through to the Heavenly Rank, he knew that while Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth was needed at this mont, more was not necessarily better.

To move past the Mysterious Pass, a Martial Artist has to rge their True Qi with Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, refining and condensing them into Primordial Qi, and then use it to attempt to break through the unseen barrier.

Once the Mysterious Pass is broken, one can completely sense the Heaven and Earth and ascend to the Heavenly Rank.

The deeper the foundations, the more Essence Qi of the Heaven and Earth one can accommodate during their breakthrough to the Heavenly Rank. Consequently, they can refine more Primordial Qi and increase the chances of shattering the Mysterious Pass.

Nevertheless, this capacity does have its limits.

If surpassed, the excess influx of Essence Qi of the Heaven and Earth into the body will not aid the Martial Artist. Instead, it will beco a burden.

While striving to move past the Mysterious Pass, the Martial Artist has to use their ntal strength to suppress and refine the excess Heaven and Earth Essence Qi. If they fail to subjugate it, it will lead to a rampaging True Qi within their body, rendering all their efforts futile.

However, Liån Qngtiän’s plan was destined to fail.

“You want to make explode?” Pei Xuanjing smirked coldly. “Unfortunately, I was worried that the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi would be insufficient! Your move has actually provided with so help.”

For others, they might worry that dense Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth would disrupt their control over their internal True Qi, dividing their focus and thereby affecting their breakthrough of the Mysterious Pass.

But Pei Xuanjing never worried about this at all. Not to ntion that his True Qi, solidly refined to the Perfect Qi Realm stage far exceeded that of others, he had already transford into a Yin Spirit, which was almost equivalent to transcending to the Heavenly Rank.

With his imnsely vast Yin Spirit power, undertaking these tasks posed no problem at all; it was as simple as grabbing sothing out of his pocket.

Moreover, Pei Xuanjing originally intended to harness the dense Heaven and Earth Essence Qi during his breakthrough to the Heavenly Rank to refine his flesh, sparing him from countless years of painstaking cultivation.

His initial plan was to set up a formation to attract a convergence of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi upon returning to Yunzhong City.

This ti, he was intercepted by 1–1& Liån Qngtiän leading his n and was forced to utilize the second thod to break through to the Heavenly Rank. Pei Xuanjing had already decided to abandon the idea of utilizing this occasion to temper his flesh.

Who would have thought a turn of events could happen when least expected?

Liån Qngtiän had so many other thods to obstruct Pei Xuanjing.

Strangely, he chose the one which was most advantageous to Pei Xuanjing. There was simply no knowing how to respond to such an action.

Pei Xuanjing accelerated the inner workings of his skill, absorbing the surrounding trendous amount of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi like a whale.

His ntal strength divided into two parts; one controlling the refining of Primordial Qi from True Qi and Heaven and Earth Essence Qi then using it to break through the Mysterious Pass.

The other part directed the Essence Qi of Heaven and Earth to perate his limbs, muscles, bones, skin layer, even marrow, refining his physical body in the process.

This action imdiately caused the Heaven and Earth to change colors.

However, it’s undeniable that the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi of this world was certainly more ferocious than in the Daming World. Even with his firm ntal strength, Pei Xuanjing felt a hint of pain. His flesh and blood felt as if countless bugs were gnawing on them.

Also, every ti he refined Primordial Qi to strike the invisible barrier, there was a noticeable violent ripple in his n tal strength.

Originally, upon hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words, Liån Qngtiän’s expression changed slightly as he thought his ploy had failed.

However, when he saw traces of blood seeping out from Pei Xuanjing’s body as a result of flesh refinent, and the pained expression on his face, he mistook it for Pei Xuanjing stubbornly resisting.

“Hmph, still resisting stubbornly? Just you watch, I will make you explode today!” 1–1& Liån Qngtiän sneered, his hands never stopping as he continued to collect a trendous amount of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi.

Boom!

Pei Xuanjing felt as if he was right at the center of a tornado where the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi was converging. The gigantic and boundless Essence Qi gathered there, and with Hé Liån Qngtiän’s actions, Gang winds appeared, effortlessly tearing up Pei Xuanjing’s body.

Hiss!

Pei Xuanjing, while enduring the intense pain, continued to activate his skill.

He could feel his flesh rapidly becoming stronger and the rigid barrier of the Mysterious Pass starting to loosen due to his relentless attacks.

It’s going to be soon!

He’s going to break through soon!

Pei Xuanjing thought to himself.

Everything appeared to be happening over an extended period but in reality, it all took place within a brief mont, so brief that Guo Yi, who was stationed far away, had no ti to react.

Initially, when he saw Pei Xuanjing powerfully holding his own against the army, he was pleased. Yet, unexpectedly, he found that Pei Xuanjing was choosing to break through on the battlefield.

The opponent absolutely couldn’t complete this breakthrough.

This was the only thought in Guo Yi’s mind.

He knew that if the breakthrough attempt failed this ti, it would beco exceedingly difficult for Pei Xuanjing to try for another breakthrough later.

Therefore, Guo Yi imdiately led the Black Cloud Knights to charge, remaining undeterred even with only a few hundred knights.

In his opinion, even if it ant losing his life, if he could facilitate Pei Xuanjing’s breakthrough in the process, it would be worth it.

Hé Liån Qngtiän’s next move infuriated him, making him wish he could risk his life to stop it.

But everything happened in a blink of an eye. Even with the Black Cloud Knights charging at top speed, they were a bit too late.

Liån Qngtiän didn’t even spare a glance to the self-imposingly charging Black Cloud Knights.

Even if the enemy had more than a hundred knights, it wouldn’t make a difference. Even if all the Black Cloud Knights were dispatched, they wouldn’t be a match for his team.

He simply continued manipulating Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, aiming to interrupt the opponent’s breakthrough quickly and eliminate him.

He was almost there!

The mont Guo Yi saw that he was about to reach his destination, all the Black Cloud Knights raised their long spears. Even with only a re hundred n, their unwavering spirit of facing death valiantly was heart-wrenching.

The ready and waiting team of knights also charged out of their ranks at this mont, prepared to hunt down these daring enemies who dared to challenge and charge at them.

Just as the two cavalry forces were about to engage in close-quarters combat…

Boom!

An overwhelming power erupted from Pei Xuanjing, shattering the tornado of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi encircling him..
