Crimson Radiance Woman

Without any resistance, 9th layer Profound energy and peak Novice Stage Extreme Fire-Ice Law essence poured into Lin Xiang's Qi Sea.

Every strand of essence absorbed was of coursed refined by his bloodline energy. His Qi Sea violently pulsated. Waves of essence particles rippled from his Qi Sea and fused all throughout Lin Xiang's internal body.

Both his cultivation base and physique continually strengthen beyond the limits of any peak Profound realm expert. If anyone were to get just 100 meters near Lin Xiang, one would experience an irresistible aura.

Sensations of what could lull weaker souls into an endless dream exuded from the aura. The mere breakthrough phenomenon was a threat to anyone weaker than Lin Xiang.

Only a few minutes went by. In just this short amount of time, Lin Xiang's peak Profound realm breakthrough had already finished!

Both 9th layer Profound energy and 5% Fire-Ice Law essence fused in both his Qi Sea and internal body.

The mere pulse of auras naturally exuding from his body would be enough to terrify all early layer Heavenly Origin experts.

Lin Xiang could feel everything. Not just the pure power of a breakthrough, but also the otherworldly sensation of Heavenly energy and Fire-Ice Primary Law essence.

The last step to the Heavenly Origin realm is still blocked by an unbreakable mental barrier in Lin Xiang's Spiritual Sea. Forcing through the last step would only bring him more harm than positive effects.

Thus, Lin Xiang decided to stop his cultivation. The moment he recalled his aura, the whole world returned to silence.

Only an ever-present mysterious aura remained with Lin Xiang. In his hands, the Heavenly bead had vanished. All of its Heavenly energy had pushed Lin Xiang's Qi Sea Profound energy near the peak of the 9th layer.

Most regular cultivators would forcibly breakthrough with higher energy from external resources. But, when their comprehension isn't high enough, cultivators can also use the higher energy to refine their Qi sea foundations.

Though, this process is especially slow and arduous for regular cultivators.

Special bloodline users have it much easier. Their Qi Seas are naturally superior to regular cultivators. It has a much stronger space structure, allowing it to withstand more world energy and Source Law essence much easier.

Thus, special bloodline users can use Heavenly beads and the such to easily refine their Qi Sea foundations.

Lin Xiang used the Heavenly energy to generate more essence marks, pushing his combat prowess further.

In that moment, Lin Xiang flung his eyes open, his pupils briefly glowing with the soul-stopping radiance of Fire-Ice Laws.

He stood up and spread his Soul Sense. His detection range was both faster and could extend much farther than before.

Within moments, several life auras piqued Lin Xiang's interest.

'Oh?' He curled his brows as he peered down the fire-ice path.

A faint blue-red light shrouded his body as he took off with extreme speed. His figure tore through the fire-ice region at speeds blurry to any Heavenly Origin expert's eyes.

Soon enough, Lin Xiang crossed 1,000 meters in a second and stopped. He witnessed an amusing sight that his Spiritual Sea had caught up on.

"Defend! Hold your position and follow my lead of energy transfer!"

The crisp voice of a fierce woman pierced through the skies.

Various Law Lights and crimson-color radiance engulfed the surroundings. Turbulent airwaves cut through the ground. Powerful shockwaves would sweep away even middle-layer Heavenly Origin experts.

Dozens of meters away from Lin Xiang was a group of three Heavenly Origin experts. Only this group was far superior to both the Sacred Moon School and Sacred Emperor Mansion!

Two of them were at the very peak of Heavenly Origin, their Heavenly Aura far thicker and more complex than those from the Sacred Emperor Mansion.

While the younger life aura was superior to Yin Xinya, being at the 5th layer of the Heavenly Origin realm!

These were peak experts with great talent that would be highly valued across Sacred Emperor city.

At this time, these peak experts were valiantly fighting together. They stood calmly under a large crimson radiance essence shield. Their energies combined together to generate an immovable force.

At the front helm of the group was the valiant crimson-robe woman. Both of her palms pulsated bright crimson lightning Law runes. Every speck of crimson lightning radiance spewing from the Law runes withholds tremendous power, mightier than the thunder from the skies.

Aided by the energy from the other two Heavenly Origin experts, the crimson lightning radiance reached heights of power slightly greater than the peak of Heavenly Origin 9th layer!

Though it contained such power, the crimson robe woman held a slightly disgruntled expression. The burden on her mind and body was clearly evident.

The other peak Heavenly Origin expert noticed this and had spoken out loud since he couldn't split his focus and use a sound transmission. "Hey, you're getting too reckless again. Too much of your bloodline energy and our energy can make your Spiritual Sea burst open!

The stress on the crimson woman's face increased. But she nearly scoffed at the other Elder's words. "Does it look like I'm about to burst now? Just keep defending!"

Her words were an ironclad will. The other Heavenly Origin expert could only sigh while adjusting his energies.

What they were defending from came in the form of a disgusting creature. A massive, centipede-like insect, spanning over 60 feet wide and long, continually struck down on the crimson radiance shield without rest.

Bursts of Fire radiance hurled out at every part of the insect body. Every burst of Fire radiance stream violently struck down on the crimson shield.

Every spark of flame produces ear-screeching clashes and twists the air apart. The littering specks of flame from the violent energy clash had even drilled large holes into the fire-ice ground. It could suppress the force of the natural environment!

There wasn't any limit to the creature's Heavenly energy. It wouldn't run out even if a half-a-day went past!

Such a nightmarish creature didn't only have a limitless supply of Heavenly energy. Lin Xiang could clearly detect it. This insect creature had a very crude and chaotic Heavenly Aura.

None of it could dare compare to even the most ordinary of cultivators. However, the insect's Heavenly Aura was still superior to most, if not all, Heavenly Origin cultivators.

It was right on the cusp of attaining power far beyond the Heavenly Origin realm. Power that can shatter mountains to ashes and split skies with just a wave of energy.

Such energy would inspire dread in any Heavenly Origin cultivator. This insect creature was a half-step Heavenly Ruler beast!

The difference in major realms is tremendous. Both Heavenly energy and Primary Law essence massively increase in control and power. This would be the equivalent of an over 300% rise in genuine raw power!

Naturally, with only the half-step realm, the insect creature can merely use a tiny portion of Heavenly Ruler energy and Primary Law essence. But just this tiny portion provided it with a tremendous edge over all other Heavenly Origin experts.

Most would be defeated in just several moves or possibly kill in a few moves.

Yet Lin Xiang couldn't help but regard this team of Heavenly Origin experts. His main amusement mainly came from the fierce woman barking out orders.

He internally remarked, 'This lass has quite the high innate comprehension to command Heavenly energy and Law essence like this. Plus, her Martial Will is quite firm to stay calm under the mental pressure of this creature.'

Lin Xiang could instantly tell that this group wasn't from Sacred Emperor City. These three had clothing with shinier Law Runes than those from the Sacred Emperor Mansion. Their robes consisted of crimson-colored robes engraved with intricate design patterns.

Each of them also had gorgeous looks that were only amplified by their unwavering aura. They all were firmly determined, unmovable, and stabler than a world tree.

The most impressive aura came from the only woman on the team. Her flowing long, crimson hair exuding a striking radiance would instantly catch the eyes of proud and noble cultivators.

It swayed down to her waist, rhythmically flapping in the air as if it was giving a hypnotic dance. Her body was bewitchingly curvaceous, and her chest was bountifully full, appearing very lovely to nestlé into.

That determined expression plastering her face would be fatal to man. Serving her every move would only feel natural. As if she had a grace that couldn't be replicated by anyone else.

This all was amplified by her indomitable Heavenly aura. Such an aura can twist apart men's souls and cause the collapse of great cities.

Lin Xiang could appreciate a beauty that goes beyond their looks and retains a magnetic aura.

Though Lin Xiang wasn't about to jump in for no reason. He wasn't some samaritan or busybody. But just when he was considering the potential benefits of helping, the 'System' metallic voice pinged his mind.

'Host has scouted a great potential for him. Her Dao determination is at an Emperor grade, can obtain a Dao Heart, and reach far into the Heart Realm on her own talent. Her bloodline is evolvable and at the Heavenly Tier. Host should immensely consider taking her along.'

'Eh?' Everything he read even left Lin Xiang's firm mind in a bit of a daze. But he only needed a moment to order himself back to tranquility.

Reading the message over continued to pique Lin Xiang's intrigue. 'Even though a Dao Heart is not impossible to obtain, it's not easy at all to form one. This also goes for reaching high into the Heart realm. Plus, she also has an evolvable bloodline that can potentially reach the Divine Tier...hm...'

From Martial Will to Dao Heart would be an immense gap only a select few across the entire Nine Grand Worlds can obtain. Hell, Lin Xiang could recall that forming his own Dao Heart was very lengthy and torturous.

Hence, it was impressive to see that a cultivator from the lower realm has the potential to form a Dao Heart.

The bloodline's potential was obvious. And this lass personality seems to be greatly valuable as well.

While Lin Xiang was lost in thought, he had unknowingly taken steps forward. He simply didn't care about reserving his Profound Aura. His presence was blared out in the open for everyone to know.

'Hm?'

The crimson robe group didn't take their eyes off the insect creature. But they did detect a mysterious peak Profound aura. Their Spiritual Sea soon visualized the scenery.

What they saw left them wanting to scratch their heads.
