It was clear that Yan Qianling intended to sacrifice his blood to unleash the full power of the black ancient mirror.

This move would undoubtedly affect Yan Qianling’s body, even shaking his foundation.

Having fought to this point, Yan Qianling couldn’t stop, nor could he admit defeat.

If he lost, the last shred of pride deep within him might crumble. If that happened, Yan Qianling’s Dao Heart would be damaged, and his future would be bleak.

“Kill!”

Yan Qianling’s eyes turned blood-red, his mind becoming hazy, filled with murderous intent.

His voice, as if coming from the abyss, was hollow and hoarse, echoing through the heavens and earth.

“Forcing his cultivation level to the Divine Transformation Realm, he’s willing to damage his foundation just to defeat me.”

Chen Qingyuan saw through Yan Qianling’s intention at a glance, his brows furrowing.

Originally, Chen Qingyuan only intended to defeat Yan Qianling, but Yan Qianling refused to admit defeat and pressed on relentlessly.

At this moment, it had gone beyond a normal sparring match, threatening their lives.

“If that’s the case, I can’t be blamed for the consequences.”

With Yan Qianling harboring murderous intent, Chen Qingyuan naturally saw no need to hold back.

Suddenly, a golden light appeared on Chen Qingyuan’s back.

Everyone focused their eyes and saw it was a Golden Elixir phenomenon.

Upon closer inspection, everyone showed expressions of shock and disbelief.

“A Saintly Golden Elixir!”

“Impossible!”

“I remember Chen Qingyuan once formed a Heavenly Golden Elixir, which was already enough to crush countless peers. Now, having rebuilt his foundation, how could he reach such a level?”

“The Saintly Golden Elixir recorded in ancient texts, I never thought I’d see it with my own eyes.”

Peers exclaimed in shock, their expressions filled with disbelief, unable to suppress their inner turmoil.

Even Yan Qianling, who was gathering his strongest killing move, was momentarily stunned.

No wonder…

Yan Qianling finally understood why he was at a disadvantage, his inner shock indescribable.

Now, with the arrow on the string, he had no choice but to release it.

“I’ve bet everything just to surpass you.”

With a loud shout, Yan Qianling’s face turned slightly pale, his Dao blood being swallowed by the black ancient mirror.

Then, Yan Qianling used his final trump card, pointing a finger.

“Shhh!”

A black light that covered the sky, accompanied by a sharp sound, shot out.

The void where Chen Qingyuan stood was instantly swallowed.

No one could see what was happening in the black mist, their hearts tightened, eyes fixed in that direction, wanting to know if Chen Qingyuan could withstand it.

The terrifying residual power of the ancient mirror forced everyone to retreat far away, not daring to approach, fearing they might be caught in it.

Meanwhile, Chen Qingyuan, in the black mist, was unharmed, protected by golden light, resisting the power of the black light.

Suddenly, a sword aura broke through the black mist, slicing through the sky, reaching the depths of the starry sea.

Everyone’s eyes were drawn to the sword light, instinctively looking up.

The next moment, countless cracks appeared in the black mist, and ten thousand rays of golden light burst from the cracks, blindingly bright.

When everyone could see clearly, Chen Qingyuan stood at the highest point, holding a sword in his right hand, with a point of law light condensed on his left index finger, containing the power of Qiankun and the principles of heaven and earth.

Chen Qingyuan seemed to become the ruler of this void, his sword momentum flattening Yan Qianling’s killing move, the divine power of the law condensed on his left index finger capable of destroying everything on this star.

“Go!”

Chen Qingyuan had comprehended the third form of the Qiankun Finger.

This finger contained sword intent and finger intent.

In an instant, every corner of Xianchang Star was swept by a fierce wind, stones flying, dust rising.

Yan Qianling felt an unstoppable pressure but still refused to admit defeat, gritting his teeth and mobilizing all his spiritual power, urging the black ancient mirror, and taking out various Dao Treasures.

“Boom!”

The finger light pierced through the void where Yan Qianling was, causing the surrounding thousand miles to collapse directly, the twisted space laws wreaking havoc on Yan Qianling’s body, leaving him bloodied and unrecognizable.

After a moment, Yan Qianling, still resisting, couldn’t hold on any longer, his spiritual energy exhausted, losing connection with the black ancient mirror.

The remaining finger light pierced his chest, shattering his right arm.

Fortunately, Yan Qianling’s strength was relatively strong, and he didn’t fall.

Struggling, wailing, in pain.

Yan Qianling slowly walked out of the twisted space, his body covered in blood, terrifyingly hideous. As for the ice mountain phenomenon he had displayed earlier, it had long since vanished.

In the clouds, Chen Qingyuan stood high, expressionless.

Yan Qianling looked up at Chen Qingyuan, his eyes hollow, his thoughts extremely complex. If I had known Chen Qingyuan was this terrifying, would I have had the courage to fight him?

Turning to look around, Yan Qianling saw the eyes of his peers and felt his dignity was completely lost, never to stand at the peak of his peers again.

“Yan the Holy Son… lost.”

“Half-step Divine Transformation Yan the Holy Son lost to Elemental Infant stage Chen Qingyuan.”

“He wanted to use Chen Qingyuan as a stepping stone, but instead became Chen Qingyuan’s whetstone. After today, if he can’t overcome this experience, he will surely develop inner demons, affecting his entire life.”

“The foundation of a Saintly Golden Elixir, there aren’t many in the entire Northern Wilderness of the same era!”

The onlookers swallowed their saliva, looking at Chen Qingyuan with growing respect and awe.

Yan Qianling couldn’t bear the feeling of being discussed, deeply gazing at Chen Qingyuan, realizing Chen Qingyuan didn’t intend to kill him, and dragged his heavily injured body away.

From then on, no one present dared to challenge Chen Qingyuan.

It wouldn’t be long before the details of today’s battle spread across the star domains of the Northern Wilderness, causing quite a stir.

Those Heaven’s Pride who intended to step on Chen Qingyuan to rise immediately abandoned that thought, not daring to show up.

Chen Qingyuan sat atop the desolate mountain, with peers gathered at the foot, no one daring to step forward for another battle.

The cold wind howled, rustling his white clothes.

He brewed tea, took a sip, and gazed into the distance.

The higher you go, the colder it gets.

What Yan Qianling would face in the future was not something Chen Qingyuan needed to consider. Originally, Chen Qingyuan didn’t intend for him to lose so miserably; it was Yan Qianling’s own fault for harboring murderous intent.

The strong wind on Xianchang Star blew towards various star domains, and soon reached the Flow Star Domain.

The Mystic Azure Sect was in an uproar.

“Junior Brother defeated Yan Qianling of the Sacred Ground of Morning Sparrow!”

“The foundation of a Saintly Golden Elixir, unbelievable!”

“Re-cultivating and still able to crush peers, standing at the peak. This battle proves Junior Brother is worthy of the title of one of the Ten Heroes of the Northern Wilderness.”

“No wonder he’s Junior Master, truly amazing.”

From the high-ranking members to the newly inducted outer disciples, everyone was excited, discussing Chen Qingyuan’s deeds, the atmosphere lively.

Naturally, this news also reached Eastern Joy Palace.

The high-ranking members of Eastern Joy Palace remained silent, their faces filled with deep regret. If Eastern Joy Palace had persisted back then, they would have already allied with the Mystic Azure Sect, sharing in the glory.

But Eastern Joy Palace made the wrong choice.

The Heavenly Jade Sect was reduced to ashes, while the Mystic Azure Sect thrived.

The most heartbroken person was Bai Xixue.

What had happened couldn’t be undone.

The Sect Master of Eastern Joy Palace sighed deeply, instructing the disciples to cultivate diligently and avoid causing any controversy.

In the core star domain of the Northern Wilderness, the high-ranking members of various top forces were extremely excited, starting to get busy.

Why?

The specific date for the Hundred Veins Banquet had been set!
