The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

"President Zhao also likes to keep things under wraps, doesn't he? It's the same for everyone. If President Zhao wants to stop the Ten-winged Demon Dragon, he should at least put on an act of attempting to stop it. What? Just like this? Half-step Great Perfection?" Cui Baiyi asked with a light chuckle.

Zhao Diman narrowed his eyes, as if he knew Cui Baiyi could break through to Great Perfection, just as Cui Baiyi knew he had the power to do so.

This wasn't information based on intelligence, but rather an understanding and mutual feeling due to both being at a certain realm.

"Look, your Pavilion Master didn't come either, so it looks like we ourselves have to take action to stop him," Zhao Diman said.

If Xiao Xiangruo doesn't show up, he can only fend for himself, otherwise what can he do? Really let the Ten-winged Demon Dragon kill everyone and then break Giant Merchant Star?

Zhao Diman longs to be the president of Giant Merchant Star; he understands the saying about preserving the green mountains, but he can't just watch Giant Merchant Star get destroyed.

After all, this is where he grew up, where he climbed step by step to the pinnacle.

"I'll repeat myself, if President Zhao is sincere, I indeed am sincere too," Cui Baiyi shouted.

"Attack!" At this moment, the Ten-winged Demon Dragon already flapped its wings.

The intense energy spread around, making people feel suffocated.

This wasn't even an attack yet, but cultivators below the Mahayana Realm were already struggling to withstand it, their legs trembling.

"Don't be arrogant!" Suddenly, Zhao Diman roared in anger, and following that, a ferocious power burst forth from him.

In an instant, the heavens and the earth changed color, there were no tribulation clouds or Tribulation Thunder, but the might generated between heaven and earth seemed even more terrifying than a tribulation itself.

Everyone looked towards Zhao Diman.

"My god, the Grand Chairman, he..."

"Hahaha, the Grand Chairman is about to break through to Great Perfection!"

"Big brother! Awesome!"

The cultivators of Giant Merchant Star were thrilled, never expecting the Grand Chairman had reached this stage—to witness the birth of a Great Perfection cultivator was truly a once-in-three-lifetimes fortune.

The Ten-winged Demon Dragon also stared at Zhao Diman with both dragon eyes.

Damn it, I didn't expect Zhao Diman to have concealed his strength so deeply. The old thief could have broken through to Great Perfection long ago, clearly, he has been holding back.

He really can endure.

"Hahaha, President Zhao, let this old man join you!" From the Soul Capture Pavilion side, Cui Baiyi laughed loudly.

Then, Cui Baiyi took a few steps forward, and suddenly, his aura surged, equal to Zhao Diman.

My god, another Great Perfection!

The cultivators present were dumbstruck, witnessing two Great Perfection level cultivators consecutively; it was simply... once in a millennium!

"Hahaha, you damned extraterrestrial demon, see how you boast now!"

"Ten-winged Demon Dragon, I don't believe you can withstand two Great Perfection cultivators!"

"Of the Nine Realms and Seventy-two Domains, we humans are the masters!"

At this moment, Giant Merchant Star and Soul Capture Pavilion were surprisingly in agreement, both targeting the extraterrestrial demon.

"Foolish! You think, two newly-advanced Great Perfections can repress me, the Ten-winged Demon Dragon? Ridiculous!" Although the Ten-winged Demon Dragon was shocked, it wasn't afraid of the two.

I, the Ten-winged Demon Dragon, have never been afraid.

No matter how many Great Perfection cultivators you bring, even if ultimately you can't defeat me, can you kill me?

Since you cannot kill me, just wait patiently for my revenge!

Breaking through to Great Perfection is not about enduring tribulation; there's no need to withstand Tribulation Thunder, thus, the process is very fast. In less than half a minute, both of them had entered the true level of Great Perfection, with their aura completely transformed.

Vast and boundless, there's a terrifying sensation of being in harmony with the Heavenly Dao.

As is known to all, once one enters Great Perfection, all previous oaths bound by the Heavenly Dao are nullified. This is the power of Great Perfection, mighty enough to be unconstrained even by the Heavenly Dao.

"Kill!" Zhao Diman charged towards the Ten-winged Demon Dragon, like a dazzling streak of light.

"Damned humans, die all of you! Giant Merchant Star, Soul Capture Pavilion, today I'll obliterate you within the starry sky!" The Ten-winged Demon Dragon roared furiously, unleashing waves of energy mixed with half Spiritual Energy and half Immortal Power, limitless and never-ending.

Great Perfection is essentially a process of becoming one with Immortal Power. The Ten-winged Demon Dragon had already converted half of its Spiritual Energy into Immortal Power.

Once all of its Spiritual Energy is converted into Immortal Power, it can achieve the Immortal Path and enter the Land of Immortals.

However, those who do not wish to enter the Land of Immortals usually retain half of their Spiritual Energy in their bodies without converting it. Retaining too much means insufficient power, retaining too little means fear of being unable to suppress the Immortal Power. Keeping it half and half is considered best.

As for Zhao Diman and Cui Baiyi, who just entered Great Perfection, only about one-fifth of the Spiritual Energy in their bodies was transformed into Immortal Power. Therefore, in terms of the quantity of Immortal Power, neither of them could match the Ten-winged Demon Dragon.

However, upon reaching Great Perfection, Immortal Power alone doesn't tell the whole story. Spiritual Energy at fifty percent can counteract fifty percent of Immortal Power, also indicating that within the bodies of cultivators at Great Perfection, Spiritual Energy is extremely formidable.

The Spiritual Energy within cultivators at Great Perfection has been condensed and refined countless times.

Except for the inability to use some Immortal techniques with Spiritual Energy, its sheer destructive power isn't inferior to nascent Immortal Power.

Instantly, Zhao Diman and Cui Baiyi collided with the Ten-winged Demon Dragon—three beings at Great Perfection: two humans and one extraterrestrial fiend.

"Whoosh!" At the moment of impact, a ferocious force surged skywards, seemingly about to tear apart the heavens and split the entire starry sky.

The whole space seemed to have frozen, with specks of light appearing all around, recognizable by those in the know as fragments of space.

Space itself was blasted into pieces.

Of course, these fragments would disappear quickly, and the shattered space would also recover immediately. To cause irreversible damage to space, at least, those at the level of Great Perfection couldn't achieve it.

"Really lame…" Li Shengxuan muttered beside Tang Rao.

Tang Rao: "..."

Tang Rao was utterly unable to refute Li Shengxuan's words.

She's a Ninth-Stage Immortal Monarch, a formidable presence even in the Land of Immortals. When she calls it lame, what can I say in return?

I can't say you're wrong; they are incredible.

Because under Li Shengxuan's strength, Great Perfection truly is as pitiful as weaklings.

"Sheng Xuan, can you please not call Great Perfection lame in the future?" Tang Rao said.

"Why? It's really lame. If I unleashed a punch, space itself would collapse," Li Shengxuan replied.

Tang Rao: "..."

"Because I'm not as strong as they are yet. Calling them lame makes me feel like I'm the lamest of the lame, which is really a blow to my self-esteem," Tang Rao said.

"That's not it," Li Shengxuan shook her head. "Xiao Hei, you're different, first off, you have a Ninth-Stage Immortal Monarch level Immortal Crystal. Given time, you're destined to become a Ninth-Stage Immortal Monarch. Plus, even without the Immortal Crystal, you're far superior because your Spirit Root is different. Oh, your Spirit Root is so special, it even gives me a terrifying feeling."

"The Chaos Spiritual Root is indeed powerful," Tang Rao felt much better hearing this.

"Not that..." Li Shengxuan shook her head again. "It's not the Chaos Spiritual Root."
