At the same time, in a place an unknown distance away, a giant hand suddenly reached out.
That hand was thousands of feet in size, blotting out the sky and sun. It was terrifying beyond measure, and it radiated heaven-shrouding devilish qi.
Wherever the hand extended, the surrounding land became filled with rolling devilish qi. Countless cultivators and mortals on the ground felt their souls tremble. Unable to control themselves, they shivered and knelt in prayer.
Boom!
That terrifying giant hand, wrapped in heaven-shrouding devilish qi, rapidly shuttled through the air.
In the blink of an eye, it crossed hundreds of thousands of miles and suddenly stopped.
Then it pressed fiercely toward the space below.
Endless devilish qi surged like storm clouds.
The place where this palm fell was precisely the space-time tunnel where Li Yun and the others were located.
This terrifying giant hand actually intended to cut off space-time and forcibly kill Li Yun.
"Courting death."
At the same time, deep within Sword Peak of the Profound Origin Immortal Sect, a cold voice suddenly rang out.
A white-robed man abruptly stood up.
The white-robed man’s appearance was ordinary and plain, as if there was nothing special about him at all.
However, his eyes were extremely sharp and emitted an intense light. That light was countless times more dazzling than the sun.
He swung his sword.
A snow-white Sword Qi extended for tens of thousands of feet, transforming into a streak of white light that shot through the air. It instantly appeared above the terrifying giant hand and slashed down.
Hiss!
In an instant, the terrifying giant hand was severed.
Pitch-black devilish qi exploded and scattered.
At the same time, a voice filled with shock and rage rang out from an unknown distant place.
"Xue Jingchen, I will remember this."
The furious voice was terrifying, echoing through the air and allowing countless people on the ground to hear it.
Afterward, the endless devilish qi dissipated, and this part of the world seemed as if nothing had happened.
A clash of this level was definitely not something a Spirit Manifestation Realm expert could achieve.
Even someone at Mo Qingyuan’s level would find it impossible.
This was clearly a clash between two Dao Resonance Realm powerhouses from across an enormous distance.
Of course, Li Yun and the others were unaware of this terrifying confrontation.
Only when that terrifying giant hand was about to fall did a hair-raising sensation simultaneously rise in their hearts.
But as the Sword Qi erupted and severed the terrifying giant hand, that feeling also disappeared.
No one knew that just a moment earlier, they had taken a trip to the gates of hell.
A few breaths later, Li Yun and his group returned to Profound Origin Immortal Mountain.
"This is Li Yun?"
"I heard that in this session of the Northern Territory Heaven’s Chosen Gathering, Li Yun, with cultivation at only the 2nd level of Heavenly Core Realm, repeatedly created miracles and defeated all kinds of powerful enemies. In the end, he successfully claimed first place in the Heaven’s Chosen Assembly. Not only that, but he even gained Elder Qing’s favor. This fellow became famous overnight throughout the entire Northern Territory."
"However, he does not look like anything special. Even my cultivation realm is much higher than his."
"What use is cultivation realm alone? Although you are at the 9th level of Heavenly Core Realm, I can guarantee that Li Yun could easily defeat you with one finger. It is said that his strength is already comparable to top-tier experts at the 1st level of Spirit Manifestation Realm."
Three hours was enough time for the events of the Heaven’s Chosen Assembly to spread.
This was especially true in a top-tier power like the Profound Origin Immortal Sect, where information sources were even more well-informed.
At this time, almost the entire Profound Origin Immortal Sect knew that a peerless genius named Li Yun had emerged from their sect.
Whether they were disciples of Sword Peak or disciples of the other five peaks, all of them stared at Li Yun with intense curiosity, as if they were looking at some precious and rare treasure. Even many inner sect disciples had mingled into the crowd.
"What are all of you doing crowding around here? Disperse immediately."
Elder Bai Jing frowned.
For Li Yun, what he needed now was to keep a low profile rather than being exposed before the crowd and attracting everyone’s attention.
He waved his hand and dispersed the spectating disciples.
Then he led Li Yun directly into a large hall deep within Sword Peak.
Inside the hall sat Vice Peak Master Mo Qingyuan.
Seeing Li Yun enter, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
At first, he had only sensed the aura of the Profound Origin Immortal Sect on Li Yun and casually brought him back. He had never imagined that the little fellow he casually brought back would actually turn out to be a piece of peerless uncut jade.
To claim the top spot in the Heaven’s Chosen Assembly at the 2nd level of Heavenly Core Realm, especially in a session with such fierce competition, meant that as long as Li Yun did not perish prematurely, he would at least become a Dao Resonance Realm powerhouse in the future.
Even for a top-tier power like the Profound Origin Immortal Sect, the emergence of a Dao Resonance Realm powerhouse was a matter of extraordinary significance. It was enough to shake the entire sect.
According to usual custom, every time a new Dao Resonance Realm powerhouse appeared, the Profound Origin Immortal Sect would hold a grand banquet for the world and invite experts from all sides to celebrate for an entire month.
"Li Yun, your performance was very good."
Mo Qingyuan spoke with a smile
"For the next three months, cultivate well within the sect and wait for the Genius Training Camp to begin. During this period, whatever cultivation resources you need, just ask. As long as the sect can satisfy your request, it will definitely satisfy you."
"Thank you, Vice Peak Master Mo."
Li Yun nodded.
Although he now possessed a fortune of one million Source Stones and did not lack cultivation resources, this was still a welcome benefit.
