"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
“That’s it!”
The man in the dark grey robe looked towards the source of the unusual movement of heaven and earth's vital energy, his eyes flashing. As far as he knew, that place didn't seem to be the residence of any powerful person. The other party was making a breakthrough at this moment, so he might be able to make some plans.
Whoosh~
At this moment, a figure came rapidly towards him, it was the shadow clone who had sensed him.
"Six-star Martial Emperor in the early stage?"
The man in the dark grey robe was slightly startled when he saw the flying shadow clone. Then he seemed to have thought of something and frowned, "Emperor Xuxing?"
Although the man in the dark grey robe had not participated in the operation with Yang Qi and his party to go deep into the Holy Lake to seize the Azure Lotus Seeds, he had heard of the name of Emperor Xuxing and knew that he was only at the early stage of the Six-Star Martial Emperor, but had the strength of the peak level of the Six-Star Martial Emperor.
Not only that, Emperor Xuxing is also particularly good at speed and soul means. The average six-star Martial Emperor at the peak is no match for him!
"With my strength, I have no problem dealing with Emperor Xuxing's clone, but if I face Emperor Xuxing's real body, even if he is injured due to a failed breakthrough, I may not be his opponent, let alone be able to stop him." The man in the dark gray robe said secretly in his heart.
The dark grey robed man was only at the late stage of the six-star martial emperor realm, and there was a big gap in strength compared to Yang Qi. Once he took action and interrupted Yang Qi's breakthrough, it would be a fight to the death. Now that he was not sure of stopping Yang Qi, the dark grey robed man did not dare to act rashly.
Whoosh~
While the man was thinking, the shadow clone had already flown over and arrived in front of the man in the dark gray robe.
The shadow clone looked at the man in the dark grey robe not far away and said slowly, "My fellow Daoist, I am the Great Emperor Xuxing. My real body is in the process of breaking through. If you have something to do and are passing by, please take a detour."
"So it's Daoist Fellow Xuxing who has made a breakthrough here. I was wondering who has the guts to make a breakthrough in this space." The dark grey robed man chuckled and continued, "I just noticed the abnormal movement of heaven and earth's vital energy, so I came to check it out. Since Daoist Fellow Xuxing has made a breakthrough here, I'll take my leave now."
Although the man in the dark grey robe wanted to take action, he was not sure that he could keep Yang Qi. Thinking of the consequences of failure, the man in the dark grey robe finally suppressed the impulse in his heart and gave up the idea of taking action.
"Thank you, fellow Daoist." The shadow clone bowed slightly to the man in the dark grey robe.
The dark grey robed man was willing to retreat on his own initiative, and the shadow clone couldn't help but feel relieved. After all, the shadow clone was no match for a late-stage six-star martial emperor practitioner, and once they fought, it would likely affect the breakthrough of the main body. If the breakthrough failed and the main body was injured, even Yang Qi himself would be in danger.
Of course, with Yang Qi's strength, even if he was injured, it would not be difficult to save his life from the hands of a six-star late-stage martial emperor. But it would take a lot of time to recover, and it would take even more time to attack the six-star mid-stage martial emperor again.
The man in the dark grey robe took the initiative to retreat, which saved a lot of trouble. At least he could continue to break through without any worries of being disturbed and affecting his breakthrough.
Whoosh~
The man in the dark grey robe did not linger any longer. His figure flashed and turned into a streak of light, disappearing from the sight of the shadow clone.
Looking at the dark grey robed man who was leaving, the shadow clone said solemnly, "I hope there won't be any more accidents."
Without the main body, relying on the shadow clone alone, even if it burns the origin, it can only stop the six-star Martial Emperor mid-level cultivators for a short time. And the six-star Martial Emperor mid-level cultivators are almost the bottom of this space. Any cultivator who comes here may be a six-star Martial Emperor late stage existence, and the shadow clone cannot stop it at all.
As time passed, the movement of the heaven and earth energy became smaller and smaller, and soon it was undetectable. However, the shadow clone knew that although the heaven and earth energy around him did not move, Yang Qi's breakthrough was not over yet. It was just that the heaven and earth energy in the formation was enough for Yang Qi to break through.
Because there was no abnormal movement in the vital energy of heaven and earth, the shadow clone was much more relieved. Unless the previous practitioner came back, other practitioners would not be able to detect Yang Qi's breakthrough.
In the formation, Yang Qi continued to absorb and refine the energy of heaven and earth, but the speed at which he absorbed and refined it was getting slower and slower. After an unknown amount of time, Yang Qi finally completely stabilized his cultivation level and could no longer absorb the energy of heaven and earth.
Wow~
Yang Qi, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, opened his eyes slightly, and a sharp gleam flashed in the depths of his eyes. "Finally, I broke through. Fortunately, there were no accidents."
Although he had made some preparations, Yang Qi also knew that breaking through in this space was still a very risky thing.
"Has someone been here?" At this moment, Yang Qi's expression changed slightly. It was the shadow clone who noticed that the real body had awakened and told him about the visit of the dark gray robed practitioner.
“Fortunately, I showed my strength before and shocked other practitioners!” Yang Qi thought to himself. If he hadn’t shocked other practitioners before, the practitioner in the dark grey robe would never have retreated.
The other party sensed the abnormal movement of the heaven and earth's vitality, and clearly knew that someone had broken through here, and wanted to attack the practitioner who had broken through. The practitioner who broke through in this space at this time was definitely not at the peak level of the six-star martial emperor. With the cultivation level of the dark gray robed man, the other party would not be afraid even if it was a practitioner in the late six-star martial emperor, but Yang Qi had the strength of a peak six-star martial emperor.
Yang Qi's eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself, "After this breakthrough, I'm afraid I won't need to break through again in this space."
After breaking through to the middle stage of the six-star Martial Emperor, he will not break through again in a short period of time. When the time comes, he will leave this space and naturally find a safe place to break through.
Although he broke through to the middle stage of the six-star Martial Emperor, Yang Qi did not end his retreat immediately. Instead, he began to condense battle patterns. His strong physical body was of great help in improving his own strength.
The process of condensing the battle pattern went extremely smoothly. Only after the battle pattern was condensed did Yang Qi end his retreat.
Feeling the strong energy in his body, Yang Qi's face flashed with a gleam of brilliance, and he said slowly, "With my current strength, I should be one of the best among the practitioners in this space, right?"
There are not too many six-star Martial Emperors in this space. With Yang Qi's current strength being infinitely close to that of a seven-star Martial Emperor, he is definitely the most powerful being among the practitioners in this space.
