Xiao Tian slowly shook his head, exhaling a long breath. “No wonder the gatekeeper warned me not to cause trouble,” he muttered. “No one interferes in battles here. It’s fine if you face an opponent you can kill or one equal to you. But if your opponent is stronger, there’s only one fate—death. And not a single person will intervene.” His eyes remained fixed on the sky, but his mind traced the meaning behind everything he saw. He could clearly understand the conversation between Situ Nan and Situ Yu. From their words and the pressure of their auras, he knew they came from the same Clan. Situ Yu’s status was not ordinary; he was the young master, the Patriarch’s son of that Clan. If such an event occurred in the Eight Galaxies, even if Situ Yu was not the future Patriarch, not a single Clan member would dare raise a hand against him. However, in this realm, everything was different. Even the Patriarch’s son could still be challenged, even opposed, by the elder generation of the same

A few moments later, the waiter came bringing the order. He placed the wine jug politely on the table, then stepped back without a sound. Xiao Tian took the jug, pouring the wine into a cup until it was half full. The liquid rippled softly, reflecting the light from the divine stone lamps on the tavern ceiling. He swirled the cup slowly, watching the wine move with the rotation of his hand, then took a slow sip.The warmth spread throughout his body, but for Xiao Tian, it was nothing more than a familiar sensation now. The wine’s effect on his cultivation had passed, and now he drank it purely for the pleasure of its taste and the calm it brought.“Young man, I did not expect that in just one night you would make three breakthroughs.”That voice suddenly appeared inside his head—calm yet clear. Xiao Tian did not turn, merely paused for a moment, a faint smile tugging at the corner of his lips. He knew perfectly well that the tavern owner was using voice transmission.“Senior, I have n

Xiao Tian lifted his gaze toward the sky above Siyung City, as if trying to pierce through the layer of spiritual mist that enveloped the place. The image of a being capable of maintaining balance in a world this vast crossed his mind. “Who exactly is the ruler of this Hundun Realm?” he thought in silence. That person must possess extraordinary power, for only a being with the highest level of control could keep such a vast realm peaceful despite being filled with so many high-level experts. Upon entering the city gate, Xiao Tian lowered his body. He observed his surroundings carefully and immediately noticed something. Not a single Supreme God King was flying above the city. Even the God Emperors walked on the ground. Only the peak-ranked Supreme God Emperors flew, and even they did so humbly, not high above the surface. That sight made Xiao Tian pause for a moment. He watched every corner of the streets, seeing how people of immense power behaved calmly, orderly, and with great c

Situ Yu stood in the middle of the arena, without the slightest hint of nervousness. The air around him trembled softly, indicating full readiness for battle. Meanwhile, the crowd outside began to cheer, waiting for the start of the fight that would open the entire series of this grand event. After Situ Yu entered, people, whether in the spectator stands, across the city, or in the tall buildings, immediately placed their bets. The atmosphere that had been lively now turned into a bustling scene full of excitement. Cheers echoed from all directions, accompanied by overlapping conversations. Seeing that excitement, Xiao Tian shook his head. He had not expected such a situation to exist in the world of cultivators. In his mind, the world of cultivation was supposed to be a place to hone one’s strength and deepen understanding, not a venue for gambling like this. However, reality was far from his imagination. A scene like this was truly new to him. “That kid defeated forty people last

Meanwhile, the tall and sturdy man was pushed back several meters. His massive hammer trembled violently, and the flames surrounding it flickered unstably. Situ Yu remained motionless, his body firm like a rock amidst a storm. His gaze did not change in the slightest—cold and focused. The tall man groaned softly, then prepared to attack again. However, before he could take a step, his body suddenly shivered. His instincts screamed loudly, warning him of imminent danger. He immediately looked around, and his eyes widened in shock. Surrounding him, thousands of spears wrapped in purple flames had appeared. The spears floated in the air, trembling softly, but their tips all pointed directly at his body. They had materialized out of thin air, as if created by Situ Yu’s will alone. “Divine Flame Thousand Spear Technique.” WHOOSSHH! The thousands of spears instantly surged from every direction. Their movements were swift, leaving almost no space to evade. In an instant, the entire iso
