Chapter 438: Breakthrough, Mid‑Marquis Stage!

"It's time to break through to Marquis!"

A series of low roars came from Su Yu's mouth.

Boom—boom—boom!!!

An extremely terrifying wave burst forth from Su Yu's slender body.

With a roar, the surrounding space twisted under this terrifying power.

Sizzle—!

Faint arcs of lightning flickered around.

A red Great Sun appeared behind Su Yu.

It was clearly the mark of an Invincible Grand Master.

A terrifying suction surged instantly in Su Yu's dantian.

In a flash, Su Yu produced a handful of Supreme Star Crystals, the resources he had previously seized on the Marquis battlefield.

Using the Synthesis Slot, he combined all those resources into Supreme Star Crystals.

The Great Wilderness Devouring Heaven Technique activated instantly.

Boom—boom—boom!!!

In his dantian, small vortices instantly surfaced, their powerful suction like a giant hand pulling the energy within the Supreme Star Crystals.

They surged into Su Yu's dantian, becoming the purest of power.

With a roar, the power within Su Yu reached its peak.

Then, under the operation of the Great Wilderness Devouring Heaven Technique, the Grandmaster's Power inside Su Yu began to transform.

Gradually, that Grandmaster's Power turned into thread‑like strands of energy.

As those strands emerged, the surrounding space twisted instantly under their influence.

Heaven and Earth Power!

These powers are indeed the Heaven and Earth Power that only those above a Marquis-level Expert can wield!

But what Su Yu has transformed so far is only a tiny fraction.

To break through to become a Marquis, he must convert all the Grandmaster's Power in his body into Heaven and Earth Power.

The more he can convert, the more terrifying his strength will be after achieving Marquis.

When Li Zhangsheng first entered the Marquis stage, nearly a hundred percent of his Grandmaster's Power had been converted into Heaven and Earth Power.

He leapt straight into the later Marquis phase.

As for Su Yu...

Although he follows the Extreme Path, he differs from someone like Li Zhangsheng who has cultivated in the Grandmaster realm for decades.

Li Zhangsheng hasn't broken through to Marquis, yet his control over power has reached an extreme.

Thus, Li Zhangsheng can achieve nearly a hundred percent conversion of power.

And Su Yu...

Relying on the Extreme Path and the power of the Great Wilderness Devouring Heaven Technique.

Even if he's not on Li Zhangsheng's level, it's close enough!

Boom—boom—boom!!!

A storm centered on Su Yu surged outward instantly, mingling with terrifying power that erupted at once.

The entire Mie Long Cheng could feel an extremely oppressive aura.

Strong members of the Mie Long Army stared in shock toward the direction of Su Yu's room.

"This wave... someone has broken through to Marquis!"

Someone shouted.

"Hiss, I didn't expect another member of the Mie Long Army to break through to Marquis, but I don't know who it is!"

"Hmm... looking that way, it should be the Young Marshal's room; could the Young Marshal be breaking through?"

"Impossible, the Young Marshal just broke through to Invincible Grand Master; how could he break through to Marquis so quickly!"

"In my view, some Great Sun Grand Masters of the Mie Long Army have broken through!"

Countless members of the Mie Long Army whispered, debating who could break through to Marquis.

Even within the Mie Long Army, a Marquis-level Expert holds supreme status.

Don't be fooled; although the Slay Dragon King has already broken through the Imperial Realm, the Mie Long Army now has only three Marquis Kings left.

The Shadow Ghost King rebelled and was beheaded by the Slay Dragon King.

Overlord of Conquering Heaven returned to the Mie Long Army to command the First Army, Heaven Sword King took the Second Army, and Mad King commanded the Third Army.

Below the three, the strongest are the Marquis-level Experts.

The figure of Marquis of Ten Thousand Fires appeared between Heaven and Earth, his eyes flashing red, finally fixing on Su Yu's room.

"This... the Young Marshal broke through!"

Marquis of Ten Thousand Fires' voice rang out, and silhouettes instantly materialized between Heaven and Earth.

They were all Marquis-level Experts of the Mie Long Army.

The moment they heard Marquis of Ten Thousand Fires' voice, they appeared, staring in disbelief at Su Yu's room.

Just recently, Su Yu had only just broken through to Invincible Grand Master and caused a ruckus with them on the Marquis battlefield.

And now, he's about to break through!

Each Marquis-level Expert inhaled sharply, staring at Su Yu's room in shock.

Immediately, the figures of Overlord of Conquering Heaven, Heaven Sword King, and Mad King also appeared.

Clearly, Su Yu's breakthrough news even startled them.

The Heavenly Overlord looked in Su Yu's direction with surprise.

"This little guy is truly terrifying. I recall that when the commander first broke through to Marquis, he was already twenty‑five, right? Su Yu managed it at just eighteen."

The Heavenly Overlord was extremely astonished.

The Heaven Sword King chuckled.

"Not bad, not bad. As expected of my junior disciple, you have my former bearing!"

With those words spoken, the Mad King and the Heavenly Overlord both cast sideways glances.

The Heavenly Overlord's mouth twitched slightly.

"If I hadn't returned now, I would have wanted to beat you to death!"

The Heavenly Overlord had never seen such a shameless fellow.

The Mad King shook his head helplessly, and finally the three focused their gaze on Su Yu's room.

Strong auras surged out from within the room.

At that moment, everyone seemed to hold their breath, staring fixedly at the room.

No one knew how long had passed.

A figure instantly materialized between heaven and earth.

Dense heavenly and earthly power coiled around the figure, like a bunch of snarling pythons.

Boom—!!!

As the figure moved, a burst of ferocious power erupted instantly.

An aura unique to the Marquis radiated from the person.

Su Yu stood above the void, the heavenly and earthly power within his body roiling like boiling river water.

In the next instant, the aura contracted toward Su Yu's interior.

Immediately after, the formidable pressure between heaven and earth vanished in an instant.

Everything returned to Su Yu's body.

At this moment, Su Yu was like an ordinary person, with no detectable aura fluctuations.

The only thing present were his plain, unadorned eyes.

Marquis, achieved! Z. br>

At this moment, a smile involuntarily spread across Su Yu's face.

Finally… I have attained the Marquis!

The Heavenly Overlord sized up Su Yu from head to toe; after sensing the density of the heavenly and earthly power within Su Yu, he looked as if he had seen a monster.

His pupils dilated instantly, staring rigidly at Su Yu.

"How could this be!"

The Heavenly Overlord stared at Su Yu, his voice lost, his face extremely terrified.

Amidst everyone's bewildered gazes, the Heavenly Overlord struggled to utter a few words.

"Marquis… mid‑stage!"
