Chapter 166: Transcendence Rank! Global Number One!

On the aircraft.

"Li Yang, what exactly is the matter? Dean Hai wants us to set off immediately to Jiangcheng to see Li Yuan?" Xu Yuanzhang frowned.

She originally had other important things to do, but was suddenly called over.

The key.

Dean Hai only told Li Yang, and then instructed her to listen to Li Yang's orders.

But she didn't know the specific matter, so she was naturally not very happy in her heart.

"Good thing."

"But we have to see Li Yuan and confirm it before saying." Li Yang smiled mysteriously. "Don't worry, we'll be there in a few hours."

Li Yang was already quite excited in his heart.

He could not forget the scene when Dean Hai told him this not long ago.

"Li Yuan, suspected to have achieved Heaven and Man Unity." Dean Hai said very indifferently at the time, as if everything was under control. "Go to Jiangcheng with Xu Yuanzhang and verify the authenticity."

Heaven and Man Unity.

When Li Yang first heard this news, the shock in his heart was unspeakable, and he even suspected he had heard wrong.

Heavens!

He, Li Yang, cultivated for decades and worked hard to cross into the fifth stage, and this had already been touted by countless people.

And Li Yuan? How old is he?

"If it's true, a year and a half from initial entry into the third stage to crossing into the fifth stage?" Li Yang muttered to himself. "This progress speed is too exaggerated, even more exaggerated than Fang Hai back then."

"However."

"This is my student, my disciple." Li Yang's eyes were bright.

Li Yuan did not know at all that in a 'virtual duel' of his on the Starry Sky Fighting Network, that abrupt spear shot caused a huge shock.

After all, it was not a Transcendence Rank promotion match, and he eventually lost this battle.

Li Yuan had already exited the virtual network and returned to the underground martial arts room.

Holding the Black Star Spear.

"The long spear is like a dragon." Li Yuan gripped the long spear, silently feeling the flow of strength in the spear body, subtle and micro, without any concealment.

It can be said.

Today's Li Yuan and the long spear in his hand can truly be called one body, far surpassing the so-called 'human-weapon unity'.

"Virtual network, the simulation of fifth-stage skills can only reach 50%, and cannot achieve 100%." Li Yuan's eyes were bright. "To truly practice spear, it must be real."

The real world is the cornerstone.

The power of the real heaven and earth is vast and boundless, and the virtual network is just a simulation.

"Swish!"

The long spear in Li Yuan's hand moved, his spear technique and spear momentum completely changed, and the spear tip transformed into dazzling brilliance, just like the flowing starlight.

Vaguely, it was as if starlight was intertwined, rolling and vast, beautiful and gorgeous.

At this moment.

Li Yuan truly felt a strand of true meaning of the second stage of "Stellar Intent", 'Stellar Dust', devoting himself to the spear technique and performing it to his heart's content.

Between the changes of spear shadows.

Li Yuan could vaguely feel that a strand of strange mystery between heaven and earth was captured by himself, which was a strand of essential mystery of the operation of heaven and earth.

The spear technique was performed along this strand of mystery, making the power contained in the long spear more terrifying and the long spear speed faster.

All-round improvement.

Every spear! When erupting, it was like a star shattering, vast and unstoppable.

Every spear! When shrinking, it was like the earth being vast, heavy and indestructible.

This is the second stage of "Stellar Intent"—Stellar Dust.

Can attack and defend, can be towering and can be insignificant.

"Heaven and Man Unity! Stellar Intent!" Li Yuan increasingly understood the true meaning of Heaven and Man Unity.

Before fifth-stage skills, martial artists all dig into physical power, making the body erupt faster and faster, more and more fierce.

Starting from the fifth stage, it is to dig the body to the extreme, striving to make one's every move fit the essential trajectory of heaven and earth operation.

Just like two people, their physical fitness is the same, but whichever side has higher skills, their strength is naturally much stronger.

And fifth-stage skills are to make one's spirit and body strive to fit heaven and earth.

Man is in heaven and earth.

The mystery of heaven and earth is the Great Dao.

"If there was no 'Stellar Intent', no guidance and teaching from Teacher Li Yang, Xu Yuanzhang, and others, I couldn't have taken this step so quickly." Li Yuan practiced more and more smoothly.

Enlightenment must come from oneself.

But with the experience of predecessors, standing on the shoulders of predecessors, one can walk faster and more steadily.

"Compared to half a month ago."

"My speed and strength have improved a lot, and my spear technique and movement technique have undergone metamorphosis." Li Yuan muttered in his heart. "If I encounter that Second-Rank Fish-Spirit tribe member again, I alone can block him."

Of course.

Li Yuan is not arrogant, thinking that he can defeat a Second-Rank powerhouse now... That Second-Rank Fish-Spirit tribe member had just broken through and had no source power battle suit or source power weapon, so it could only be considered the weakest kind of Second-Rank alien.

Practiced for a long time.

"【Your spear technique realm has increased from fifth stage 1% to fifth stage 2%】" A Divine Palace prompt suddenly flashed.

Li Yuan didn't care at all, still devoting himself to practice.

Another hour passed, and Li Yuan stopped, only feeling incomparably comfortable throughout his body.

"Practicing spear, I unknowingly entered the state of Heaven and Man Unity, the power of heaven and earth nourishing the soul, source power washing the body." Li Yuan instantly understood what was going on, sighing secretly. "Making me unable to feel fatigue at all."

"In legend, once Heaven and Man Unity is achieved, there is basically no need for sleep and rest... It seems it is true."

For martial artists of Heaven and Man Unity.

Daily cultivation entering the state is a kind of rest.

Abruptly.

Li Yuan also thought of Dean Hai saying 'fishing and enjoying is also cultivation'.

Li Yuan didn't understand at the time.

Now Li Yuan understands a bit. Eating, fishing, walking, birds flying, lake water rippling... everything in everything contains the mystery of heaven and earth nature.

It's just that ordinary people are dull and cannot perceive it.

"Living beings are born only to control themselves." Li Yuan thought thoughtfully. "Gradually controlling oneself, only then can one go from inside to outside... perceive heaven and earth."

"I am now just entering Heaven and Man Unity."

"Must pass through practicing spear, or long-term quiet insight, to make the soul combine with heaven and earth." Li Yuan thought to himself.

"Next, I must strive to make myself, whether practicing spear or daily life, be able to merge with heaven and earth as much as possible, to feel the essential mystery of heaven and earth operation... and even one day, I and heaven and earth are one body." Li Yuan vaguely saw the future cultivation direction.

Spirit merges with heaven and earth!

Body merges with heaven and earth!

I am heaven and earth!

... Suddenly.

"Hmm?" Li Yuan turned his head suddenly and saw the figure standing at the stairs.

"Muhua, when did you come?" Li Yuan smiled.

"I've been here for a long time." Li Muhua's eyes were bright. "Brother, the spear technique you just performed was really beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful spear technique."

"Compared to your spear technique, our teacher's spear technique is simply scum."

Li Yuan couldn't help but smile. The martial arts teachers in junior high school mostly only had third-stage skill levels.

How could they compare to himself?

"Don't be ambitious, the spear has no fixed momentum, my spear technique has no fixed rules, you can't learn it." Li Yuan smiled. "First work hard to practice the Rock Fist Technique well, and then learn the basic spear technique well."

"When your realm is enough, I will arrange for a good teacher to teach you specifically." Li Yuan said.

"Alright, brother, I will definitely work hard." Li Muhua nodded heavily, full of fighting spirit.

"Brother."

"This is the breakfast milk Mom asked me to send you, I put it here." Li Muhua said with a smile. "I won't disturb your cultivation."

He put down the milk and went upstairs quickly.

"Milk." Li Yuan smiled slightly and picked up the cup and drank it all.

It didn't taste like anything.

But it made Li Yuan feel warm in his heart.

"Muhua's martial arts talent is indeed much higher than Qianqian's." Li Yuan thought to himself. "And his perseverance is also extremely strong."

As they get older, the younger brother and sister also show differences.

Perhaps it was because of not awakening martial arts spirituality, Li Qianqian preferred cultural course learning.

And Li Muhua's talent was extremely high, and he was extremely hard-working in cultivation.

Because of different experiences, Li Muhua lacked the 'craziness' of Li Yuan's cultivation back then, but added some calmness and composure, and had his own ideas and plans.

Li Yuan was happy to see this.

"People become strong in their hearts because of suffering, but they should not sing praises of suffering." Li Yuan thought to himself. "I practiced so crazily back then, just to let Qianqian and Muhua have more choices in their growth process, and be able to face everything more calmly."

"No matter what choice they make in the future, as long as it is positive, let them be."

"I, the older brother, will support them." Li Yuan did not force his younger brother and sister to make any great achievements.

Logged into the Starry Sky Fighting Network again.

"Master, you are so fast this time." The elf-like intelligent girl said excitedly.

Li Yuan ignored her and clicked on the ranking match light screen:

Ranking Match: Eclipse Rank.

Points: 982 (1000 points can participate in the promotion match)

Ranking Win Rate: 75%

"Basically consolidated the spear technique, now movement technique and spear technique are both fifth stage, should be able to try to impact the 'Transcendence Rank'." Li Yuan's heart was calm, and there was also a glimmer of expectation.

The nine major ranks of the Starry Sky Fighting Network, Bronze, Silver, and Gold are basically ordinary people and First-Rank martial artists.

Meteor, Moon, Eclipse, are basically Second-Rank martial artists, all of whom can be called masters.

And the Transcendence Rank requires fifth-stage skills. Looking at the world, those who can reach this rank are already very, very few, either peerless geniuses or top Source Martial Artists who are famous in one area.

"Two ranking matches."

"Then, participate in the promotion match." Li Yuan clicked to start ranking matching.

This time, the matching time was exceptionally long, but Li Yuan was quite patient.

Twelve minutes later, two ranking matches ended.

Li Yuan won easily. The comprehensive breakthrough of spear technique and movement technique made him basically able to crush other Eclipse Rank masters.

"Participate in the Transcendence Promotion Match." Li Yuan said loudly on the ring.

Boom!

Li Yuan's consciousness vibrated slightly, and then heaven and earth changed, and his whole person was already in a vast wilderness.

"Level 20 physical fitness? Source Martial Artist?" Li Yuan instantly noticed the change in his body.

Unprecedentedly powerful flesh, and strands of pure source power that could be mobilized in the body.

Source power battle suit covered the whole body, source power weapon in hand.

This is the standard configuration of human Source Martial Artists.

"Swish~"

"Swish~" "Swish~" The opponent he had to face finally appeared. On the wilderness, huge snakes with a pair of blood-colored wings appeared.

The body length was nearly twenty meters, the snake head was raised high four or five meters high, spitting snake letters, all of which were behemoths.

"Blood-Wing Snake tribe? All Second-Rank?" Li Yuan was slightly surprised, seeing the few black scales on the bodies of these big snakes.

Back then.

In the actual combat assessment of Kunlun Martial University, he had killed a Blood-Wing Snake tribe member, but that was only level 14.

Compared to the Second-Rank Blood-Wing Snake tribe, it was undoubtedly a world of difference.

"Haha, then let's fight." Li Yuan suddenly laughed and stimulated the source power in his body.

Boom!

His whole person flew out like a lightning bolt, the long spear in his hand infused with source power, and the edge was endless.

"Shoo!" "Shoo!" "Shoo!"

Those huge Blood-Wing Snake tribe members also whistled and rushed toward Li Yuan.

In this battle, Li Yuan fought fiercely with more than ten Blood-Wing Snake tribe members.

Although his spear technique was sharp, every spear could cause damage to the Blood-Wing Snake tribe.

But these Blood-Wing Snake tribe members were also not easy to mess with, and in terms of pure physical fitness, they were all better than Li Yuan, and they had an absolute advantage in numbers.

Often, Li Yuan had just severely injured one, and he was forced to retreat by other Blood-Wing Snake tribe members.

Finally, after more than 20 minutes of bitter fighting, before the source power was exhausted, Li Yuan relied on the advantage of movement technique to barely kill all the Blood-Wing Snake tribe members.

"Congratulations, Guardian·Source, you passed the Transcendence Promotion Match, you have reached the Transcendence Rank." A system reminder rang in Li Yuan's ears.

Before Li Yuan could think.

Swish!

The surrounding scene changed, the original source power battle suit, weapons, etc., all covered in blood, disappeared, and Li Yuan was already in a bright space.

"This is?" Li Yuan was stunned.

In front of him was a woman in white.

"Congratulations Li Yuan, becoming the first student among this year's Blue Star freshmen to break through to the Transcendence Rank." The woman in white smiled.

"First?" Li Yuan showed a smile. "That is to say, I am the global number one?"

"Well."

"It can be considered the global number one of this year." The woman in white emphasized.

"Enough." The smile on Li Yuan's face became brighter. "Tantai Feng, I have surpassed you."

"Next time, it's my turn to fulfill the promise to Dazhuang and show off in front of you."
