Chapter 547: Chapter 292: Ascending to the Peak, Tianyong City Trembles_2
When it was discovered that Nangong Xue had surpassed Ye Xingxuan and reached the top, all the Heavenly Prides were astonished.
This unexpected turn of events was simply too abrupt for them.
From the beginning to the end, Nangong Xue never had any outbreaks and simply followed silently behind Xiao Yun, Deng Wuqing, and Ye Xingxuan.
By any measure, Nangong Xue did not seem to be a match for Xiao Yun and the others.
Standing with his hands behind his back, the middle-aged man on the suspended rock looked at Nangong Xue, his face darkening in seriousness.
“This girl has a very powerful force of extreme Yin within her body. Could it be that she has awakened the legendary physique from the Nangong family’s tales?”
At first, he didn’t notice anything unusual about Nangong Xue and thought she was just an exceptionally talented Heavenly Pride like Xiao Yun and the others.
However, as the pressure from the Heavenly Pride Stele grew stronger, her abnormalities began to show.
That was an extremely cold force that burst from within her body, counteracting the pressure of the Heavenly Pride Stele, allowing her to successively surpass Deng Wuqing and Xiao Yun.
Even Ye Xingxuan’s second outburst could not suppress her.
With Ye Xingxuan’s black hair scattered and the power of stars surging, even the starry river appeared in the sky, yet he could not break the limit again.
In the end, he had no choice but to leave his name at the 765-foot-tall Heavenly Pride Stele.
Glancing at Nangong Xue, who had already surpassed the 800-foot-tall Heavenly Pride Stele and continued to rise, Ye Xingxuan felt disheartened.
Five years of silence, five years of metamorphosis, and before he could even fight that person, he was overtaken by someone else. This blow was a bit too heavy for him.
Fortunately, having experienced such a lot in the previous five years, his state of mind had changed greatly, and he quickly recovered.
“The Heavenly Pride Stele is just the beginning, and does not represent everything.” His eyes were reignited with a fighting spirit.
After Nangong Xue broke through the 800-foot height of the Heavenly Pride Stele, the amazing thunder erupted in the void, bombarding down like thunderballs.
At this moment, above Nangong Xue’s delicate body, purple light and dazzling brilliance bloomed, emanating a strange power, smashing the fallen thunderball.
This collision was not followed by silence, but by the true start, as the real Heavenly Pride Stele’s curtain was raised.
Accompanied by the rolling thunder, there were suspended rocks in the void, on top of which powerful auras appeared.
These were the high-ranking members of the Imperial Court, attracted by the anomalies triggered by the Heavenly Pride Stele.
The Heavenly Pride Stele was not just about leaving names. It was also a test of the strength and potential of the Heavenly Prides.
If they relied solely on strength and lacked extraordinary talent, 799 feet would be the limit.
Once they broke through the 800-foot height, it meant that a monster with a special constitution had appeared.
The secrets of the Heavenly Pride Stele were, of course, known only to the high-ranking members of the Imperial Court.
So, when anomalies appeared on the Heavenly Pride List, powerful figures emerged one by one.
The weakest one was at the peak of the Golden Core Realm.
The majority were Celestial Humans who had surpassed the Golden Core level.
“Are all these strong people here because of Nangong Xue?”
Some Heavenly Prides murmured to themselves.
“To be able to break through the 800-foot limit and cause the Heavenly Pride List to stir up anomalies, there must be some secret we don’t know about.”
These were all Heavenly Prides, quick-witted, and they quickly formed speculations.
At this moment, Nangong Xue was still calmly ascending to a higher position on the Heavenly Pride Stele, and the terrifying rumbling thunderballs falling down did not pose any threat to her.
However, everyone could see clearly that as Nangong Xue climbed higher, the purple light and dazzling brilliance that radiated from her body became more abundant, causing the thunder to become more terrifying, like the destructive thunder at the end of the world.
In the distance, Celestial Human powerhouses watched intently at the incredible power emitted from Nangong Xue’s body, their hearts far from calm in the process.
“Sister, I knew you were the strongest.” Nangong Wan whispered to herself, standing in the crowd, her clothes fluttering, her black hair flying, and her beautiful eyes shining with excitement.
The other Heavenly Prides’ hearts tightened, vaguely sensing that Nangong Xue’s temperament seemed to have changed somewhat.
“It really is an Extreme Yin Physique, a physique that only exists in the legends of the Nangong Family.”
In the distance, a man wearing a golden robe and an imposing face sighed.
Behind him, three people followed, each with an exceptionally elusive aura, but all silently standing behind the middle-aged man in the golden robe.
“It’s a pity that Nangong Xue didn’t enter the Martial Academy, otherwise, she would definitely be able to comprehend a holy body technique from the Divine Martial Enlightenment Pillar.”
“Chief Yuan, you don’t have to worry about that. Since His Majesty has decided to form the Celestial Strategy Army through the Heavenly Pride Convention, they will all go to that place, and they will all have the opportunity to comprehend the holy body technique by then.” One of them spoke, his eyes shining brightly as he opened and closed them.
Chief Yuan, the one referred to, shook his head slightly: “One step late, and every step is late.”
“Who can be blamed for that? The Martial Academy has not closed its doors to these aristocratic families, but they are wary of the Imperial Court and are not willing to let the Heavenly Prides of their clans enter the Martial Academy, fearing that they would follow in the footsteps of those ‘Saint Children'”
“But how could they know that those Saint Children, who disappeared from Morigin, have already gone to a broader world, and even the Martial Arts have entered a realm they cannot imagine?”
The man in the golden robe was the number one person in Morigin, Yuan Emperor.
He never spoke throughout, retracting his gaze from Nangong Xue and then looking through the numerous Heavenly Prides.
Besides lingering a bit on Ye Xingyun, Xiao Yun, and a few others, his gaze swept past the others like an autumn breeze sweeping fallen leaves, without lingering.
