A moment to witness the miracle?
Hearing Yan Zhen’s remarks, all those present laughed. For some reason, people no longer had any interest in ridiculing Yang Zhen.
Oddly enough, Yang Zhen had managed to hack up an aged wood table in a secret room of Changyue Tower for a barbecue, and he did this right in front of various Practitioners. He had even relished an entire meal and almost fell asleep on a live broadcast.
Now everyone understood what Yang Zhen meant by “live broadcast”. They had also incisively perceived his quirky character-he seemed to be there just for comic relief.
As for comprehending the Sky Crossing Void and witnessing a miracle? Everyone wanted to say to Yang Zhen, “I don’t believe you for a second!” Eventually, Yang Zhen was about to seriously comprehend the Sky Crossing Void. Although everyone knew that Yang Zhen wouldn’t succeed, they were still curious about how long Yang Zhen could persist.
The guy who had died violently before actually had decent inherent talent. He had managed to stay in the secret room for nearly fifteen minutes before suddenly dying bloody and without warning.
Now that Yang Zhen was inside trying to comprehend the Sky Crossing Void, even the Flower Tower Master, who was present, wouldn’t be able to save him if he suddenly died like the previous practitioner.
With that in mind, people’s mood finally settled down. Quite a few even felt a pang of remorse for Yang Zhen.
Though Yang Zhen was shameless, deceitful, and a total jerk, he wasn t outright evil. More importantly, if he died, who else would know the recipe for his cumin mutton?
Medicine Elder glanced at Hua Youyue hesitantly. She understood his thoughts and nodded, saying, “Let’s wait and see.”
Hearing her say this, Medicine Elder finally put his mind at ease. If Hua Youyue intervened, plus the elixir he had concocted, as long as Yang Zhen didn’t die, he could be saved.
Watching Yang Zhen earnestly sit before the stone inscription of the Sky Crossing Void, everyone unconsciously held their breath and anxiously watched him.
Though they didn’t have much hope, they were still hoping to gain some insight from Yang Zhen.
Who knew about sudden enlightenment? Maybe Yang Zhen wouldn’t successfully comprehend it. However, if someone could gain an insight while Yang Zhen was trying to comprehend the Sky Crossing Void, they might fully understand it.
Having entered the secret room, Yang Zhen hadn’t deliberately looked at the content on the stone inscription yet. Even a passing glance had given him a moment of bewilderment. He knew that the terror of the Sky Crossing Void wasn’t baseless. Taking a deep breath, he reined in his focus.
After relaxing, Yang Zhen abruptly raised his head, fixed his gaze on the first sentence of the inscription, quickly read the content on the stone, then shut his eyes.
The martial skill on the stone was indeed as the rumors had said. It was 90% of the skill’s content. Even so, with 90% of the content, one could still master this skill—provided they could comprehend its profoundness!
Boom!
In his mind, the content of the stone inscription exploded in an instant and surged crazily throughout his body, like a boundless sea storming ceaselessly. Yang Zhen was profoundly shaken. In only a moment, the roaring profound truths had stunned him.
In his Divine Consciousness Space, waves of horrifying celestial profound truths shook the heavens and the earth as if they were about to penetrate the entire universe. The deafening sounds could hardly be endured by Yang Zhen, but he gritted his teeth and persisted.
In reality, Yang Zhen’s situation was different from the practitioner who had violently died while comprehending the Sky Crossing Void. That practitioner had been able to withstand it for fifteen minutes solely because he had comprehended it sentence by sentence. However, Yang Zhen, who had memorized all the content and contemplated it all at once, had to endure ten times, even hundreds of times more pain.
If Yang Zhen hadn’t nearly perfected his Ancient Elephant Lightning Body, in just that instant, his blood veins would probably have burst.
Even so, Yang Zhen’s body had begun to tremble. His surging blood, roaring like a rampaging dragon, was crazily circulating within his body.
In a flash, Yang Zhen’s body shook violently. The swell and pulse of his flesh and blood were absolutely terrifying.
This situation completely startled everyone outside the secret room. All of them looked dumbfounded at Yang Zhen, who was in pain, and were somewhat bewildered by each other’s stares.
After a moment, a practitioner scornfully snickered, “I thought Yang Zhen s talent would be better than the previous practitioner, but I didn’t expect the gap to be so huge.”
“Yes, no matter how extraordinary Yang Zhen is, once he truly begins learning Sky Crossing Void, his talent is thoroughly exposed. I seriously don’t know where his confidence came from to accept this task.”
People were talking about it, most of them were sneering, some even angry, glaring at Yang Zhen with livid faces.
“Did we waste so much time, just to see this young fellow die as soon as he starts learning?”
“With such a talent, I guess even the Flower Tower Master won’t bother to save him!”
“Damn it, calculating the time, practitioners from Water Spirit Country and Dajiang Country should be arriving at Big Smoke City soon. If I had known how poor Yang Zhen’s talent was, I wouldn’t have come.”
“Let’s go, maybe by this time, we can catch a glimpse of the brilliance of our neighboring country’s practitioners. I heard that all the people who come this time are prodigious talents with extremely high qualifications.”
“Of course, I’ve heard that Zeng Bishu from the No-Heart Sect and Shi Feixue from the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers have both come in person.” “What, they’re both here?” another practitioner said in surprise, “Then what are we waiting for? Compared with Zeng Bishu and Shi Feixue, Yang Zhen is nothing but an ordinary mortal.”
In the crowd, disappointment flashed in Hua Youyue’s eyes. However, she suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with surprise. Under her veil, her rosy lips opened slightly, clearly shocked to the extreme.
Hum!
A sound, like the sky and earth shaking, rang out, surprising everyone outside the chamber. They looked up in horror towards the direction of the hum and were taken aback.
The humming sound came from none other than Yang Zhen’s body inside the water curtain.
At this moment, Yang Zhen was still maintaining his meditative posture, but a dazzling cyan light suddenly burst forth from his body.
At first, the dazzling cyan light only enveloped Yang Zhen’s body, its fluctuations all around, like a cyan fog or cloud, giving Yang Zhen’s body a dreamlike appearance.
People’s eyes involuntarily grew wider, and their mouths opened involuntarily. They craned their necks to keep their gaze locked on Yang Zhen’s aura.
This aura was the fluctuation of YuanQi, often associated with the use of the mythical Sky Crossing Void.
But how was this possible?
Yang Zhen had shown from the start of learning Sky Crossing Void that he couldn’t withstand the terrifying pressure of the Great Dao pouring into his body. How could he have succeeded in just a few breaths of time?
No!
The crowd was jolted. According to the legend, Sky Crossing Void, an excellent body technique, could alter the shape of the body at will in the air, not only making the figure elusive but also extremely swift – it was a rare martial skill. Although the fluctuations of Sky Crossing Void erupted from Yang Zhen’s body, it did not mean he had succeeded.
However, at this moment, everyone clearly heard Hua Youyue, the tower master of Changyue Tower, let out an involuntary cry of surprise, her eyes showing shock for the first time.
Inside the water curtain, an overwhelming fluctuation came, and the world seemed to become a little gentler.
Above the meditating Yang Zhen’s head, the cyan mist from the gloomy cloud suddenly transformed into numerous human figures. They seemed incredibly lifelike, almost tangible. Each figure that appeared caused a gasp of surprise because they were nothing but the elegant steps of Sky Crossing Viod..
