Chapter 1548: Chapter 1548: Pursuit During Breakthrough, the Chasers Arrive

Ao Tian and the Void-Devouring Tiger were astonished to find an enormous amount of spiritual power endlessly flooding into Yang Yan’s body.

At this moment, Yang Yan was like a bottomless black hole, constantly absorbing this power.

Rumble...

As he voraciously inhaled, the entire cavern began to tremble fiercely, and the space seemed to warp slightly.

Even though various spatial arrays had been reinforced beforehand, they still appeared pale in the face of this formidable force.

The Void-Devouring Tiger and Ao Tian struggled to steady themselves, barely managing not to fall.

Ao Tian and the Void-Devouring Tiger exchanged a glance, the latter saying excitedly, "The master is about to break through."

Ao Tian nodded, with a slight sigh, "That guy always surprises us, but alas, the gap between us is growing further."

The Void-Devouring Tiger pouted, adopting a seasoned tone, "You can’t do anything about talent, your situation isn’t bad either, but you just happen to have a freak like my master around, so it’s best not to compare with him."

Ao Tian smiled wryly, nodding in agreement, then reminded, "Let’s hurry and retreat, and protect this guy. We must not let anyone disturb him."

Upon Ao Tian’s suggestion, the Void-Devouring Tiger hesitated no longer, swiftly flying out of the cavern.

As they withdrew, the mountain body shook violently again, as if it was about to collapse the next moment.

Boom—

The spiritual power within the entire world surged into the ocean, continually merging and compressing.

Amazingly, amidst this star-like vast spiritual power, the power of laws was also mingled, all infused into Yang Yan’s body.

The Void-Devouring Tiger witnessed the magnificent and splendid scene, muttering excitedly, "The master will become a true Saint Realm master after this breakthrough."

"Indeed! It’s breathtaking, truly breathtaking!" Ao Tian’s eyes were filled with admiration, "In this era of scarce spiritual power on Earth, someone can actually break into the Saint Realm!"

"It’s simply a miracle! Miraculous indeed! It’s hard to believe unless witnessed with your own eyes."

As they couldn’t help but marvel, several figures arrived following the energy signature to this place.

They were all dressed uniformly, with a dragon-shaped pin on their chest.

"Ha ha ha! We’ve finally found him."

The one leading the group saw the Void-Devouring Tiger and Ao Tian, revealing a smug smile.

They were none other than those dispatched by the Celestial Venerable to find Yang Yan.

The Void-Devouring Tiger and Ao Tian noticed the newcomers, and their expressions changed.

Because they found these people had all reached the Half-Saint Realm, and their cultivation was exceptionally stable.

Perhaps just with the right opportunity, they could make further progress and officially enter the ranks of the saints.

In their hands, there was absolutely no chance to fight back.

Even knowing the opponents were powerful and victory seemed impossible, the two hardly hesitated before shouting "kill" and charging at the Celestial Venerable’s men like lightning.

They intended to delay as much time as possible, only waiting for Yang Yan to successfully break through; then everything would be resolved.

Though the Half-Saint Realm seemed only a step away from the Saint Realm, in actual combat, the gap in strength would immediately become evident.

Even if ten Half-Saint Realm experts with stable cultivation united, they might not be able to withstand even ten moves from a Saint Realm master.

The three dispatched by the Celestial Venerable sneered immediately upon seeing this.

One scornfully said, "Overestimating yourselves."

As he spoke, he activated his inner spiritual power, confronting the Void-Devouring Tiger and Ao Tian as one against two.

At the moment they clashed, the faces of the Void-Devouring Tiger and Ao Tian instantly turned grim.

For though there was only the leading one, they felt a blur, then they were seized from left and right, and then abruptly lifted up.

"Crack."

The Void-Devouring Tiger’s right paw and Ao Tian’s left-hand were instantly snapped.

Simultaneously, the opponent’s legs rose and kicked directly at their lower bodies.

Crack!

Another crisp sound of breaking bones, the heart-wrenching pain nearly caused the one and the tiger to faint.

Indeed, the prowess of a Half-Saint Realm master; though one fought against two, he achieved absolute dominance within a single encounter.

The most terrifying was that the enemy relentlessly pursued his advantage, simultaneously throwing punches and kicks, within mere moments, crushing the bones of the Void-Devouring Tiger and Ao Tian, tossing them away like broken mud.

"Alright, after dealing with them, let’s go catch Yang Yan."

The leader who had just lashed out barely finished his sentence when his brow furrowed suddenly, looking fearfully towards the still vibrating cave dwelling.

He suddenly had a bad hunch, stating gravely, "Be careful in a while, there’s something eerie here."

As he spoke, he suddenly waved his hand, two blades formed by condensed spiritual power sliced through the void, rapidly heading towards the Void-Devouring Tiger and Ao Tian.

Just as the one and the tiger felt there was no escape from this calamity, a dragon’s roar echoed out from the cave, shaking the entire ground.

The three subordinates of the Celestial Venerable quivered all over, looking fearfully towards the direction of the cave.

Accompanied by the dragon’s roar was a gigantic golden dragon formed by spiritual power.

Its massive body emerging from the cave expanded continuously, seeming capable of shrouding the heavens and covering the sun.

As it rolled endlessly in mid-air, countless energy columns surged intensely, as if celebrating the birth of a ruler of this land.

Boom!

Formidable pressure emanated from its body, rapidly saturating the entire space like a tangible force.

Though the three immediately mobilized the power within their bodies, they managed only a second before falling to their knees with a thud, unable to get up.

"A phenomenon, there’s a phenomenon."

With difficulty raising their heads, looking at the golden dragon above, the three on the ground shivered all over, their eyes filled with terror.

A sanctified person, born with phenomena, would possess the power to move mountains and fill seas, far beyond what an ordinary Saint Realm can contend with.

Slowly, the dragon’s image began to fade, and a human figure appeared before everyone.

His handsome face paired with the just-apparent dragon’s might, exuded an aura befitting a king.

"Who gave you the nerve to touch my people?"

Yang Yan’s cold gaze swept over the three on the ground, as if he were looking at corpses, devoid of any emotion.

The moment Yang Yan glared, the blood within the three’s bodies seemed to cease flowing.

Cold sweat trickled down their foreheads, and their bodies trembled even more intensely.

They exchanged glances, and the leader gritted his teeth, his expression vicious, saying, "Fight! He’s just entered the Saint Realm and hasn’t stabilized yet, and we’re all Half-Saint Realm."

As his words fell, they immediately mobilized their spiritual power, wielding laws, instantly approaching Yang Yan.

The leader, appearing behind Yang Yan, transformed his palm into a blade, aiming directly for Yang Yan’s nape.
