Chapter 1431

There were 653 cities in the region where Shuntian Prefecture was located, and they were all ranked.

This ranking had not changed for many years.

Over time, everyone believed that they had to participate in the Domain Ranking held by Shuntian Prefecture if they wanted their cities to be ranked higher. As for the Domain Realm, it had been a long time since a city's ranking dropped after all the cultivators were annihilated, so everyone deliberately ignored it.

This was because, on average, there would be close to a thousand cultivators entering each city, but how could none of them survive?

Northwind City's ranking was near the bottom, so it was inconspicuous that its ranking dropped. It took them a long time to figure out that the Domain Realm was the reason for its ranking to drop.

However, Yanbo Castle's ranking immediately changed, which attracted the attention of other forces.

Then, Miao Dongcheng, Liu Zongcheng, and Wanyuan City's vitality was also forcefully taken away by ten percent, which attracted a lot of attention.

Many people were guessing what had happened in the Domain Realm and why the cultivators from the four cities who entered were all annihilated.

There were all kinds of guesses, but no one suspected Hu Pingcheng.

After three years, the current Huping City had undergone a great change.

The vitality here was unimaginably rich. The Domain Realm, which was rarely seen in the past, could be seen everywhere now. Almost every day, there were cultivators gaining epiphanies and breaking through.

There were also many Immortal King-level Technique Inheritances.

Now, the higher-ups of Hu Pingcheng were all looking forward to the end of the Domain Realm and waiting for the return of the young heroes.

…

After the battle that day, Zi Chen was severely injured, but he had shocked everyone and left calmly.

After leaving, Zi Chen and the others did not step into the next level. Instead, they found a dilapidated valley to heal their injuries.

Almost everyone was injured in that battle.

As for the other cultivators, since they had chosen to retreat when Zi Chen was severely injured, they naturally did not dare to cause trouble for Zi Chen.

After the battle ended, they left this level and went directly to the third level.

Several days later, Zi Chen's injuries were completely healed. Due to the enormous amount of energy he had expended in this battle, the speed at which his Reality World was collapsing had sped up, and his cultivation level had also increased by a large margin.

After recovering from his injuries, Zi Chen took out the Spirit Channeling Domain Crystal. Because of this item, he had almost lost his life.

The Psychic Region Crystal shone brightly, but it was not blinding. It contained a dense spiritual energy.

Because of Zi Chen's awakening, the others opened their eyes and looked at the Psychic Region Crystal curiously. Only Shang Guan Hong didn't look so curious.

"This is called the Spirit Channeling Domain Crystal."

"What a rich energy. Once I absorb it, my power will undergo some changes."

"Of course. Once you absorb this, your spiritual energy will become more agile and easier to control. It will be as if it has been specially condensed, and the power of your attacks will also become stronger."

Everyone stared at the Psychic Realm Crystal and began to discuss among themselves.

Man Shi's eyes lit up, and he said somewhat impatiently, "Since that's the case, Zi Chen, hurry up and refine it. Then let us see the effects."

Zi Chen had risked his life to obtain this item, so it was natural for him to give it to Zi Chen. No one had any complaints.

Unexpectedly, Zi Chen shook his head and said, "This item should be refined by the most suitable person."

"Most suitable? This item is most suitable for everyone." Man Shi was startled, and the others were also puzzled.

Zi Chen smiled and said, "I naturally know that. Unfortunately, we only have one piece, so we should use this Psychic Region Crystal to its fullest potential."

As he spoke, Zi Chen looked at Shang Guan Hong and said, "You should be familiar with this item."

Shang Guan Hong's eyes flashed with surprise. She didn't understand how Zi Chen knew that she had seen this item before. She nodded and said, "I've seen two pieces."

"You should have refined all of them, right?" Zi Chen asked again.

Shang Guan Hong lowered her head in embarrassment.

She obviously misunderstood Zi Chen's meaning. Zi Chen smiled and said, "That's your opportunity. You don't need to blame yourself. However, you've refined two pieces. Although your strength has become more agile, it seems that you're still lacking a little. This one is for you."

"Give it to me." Shang Guan Hong raised her head, her beautiful face full of surprise.

"At present, you're the most suitable one."

While speaking, Zi Chen handed the Psychic Region Crystal to Shang Guan Hong.

Along the way, although the two of them didn't talk much, Zi Chen saw the changes in everyone's expressions. Shang Guan Hong's expression was not calm after seeing the Psychic Region Crystal, but she had been suppressing it and didn't reveal it too much.

In addition, Zi Chen's keen perception could detect Shang Guan Hong's spiritual power. This spiritual power was very similar to the Psychic Region Crystal, so Zi Chen was sure that Shang Guan Hong had seen and refined it before.

No one expressed any objection to this.

Next, Shang Guan Hong began to refine the Psychic Region Crystal, while the others began to cultivate.

As for Zi Chen, because the real world was collapsing on its own, he, who had nothing to do, chose to stand guard for everyone. At the same time, he also comprehended some combat techniques.

A few days later, Shang Guan Hong's body was wrapped in a green light. The green light was filled with a strong vitality and spiritual power, like a living eggshell, carefully guarding Shang Guan Hong.

Obviously, Shang Guan Hong's harvest this time was great.

Another few days passed, and a surge of energy fluctuation woke Zi Chen up.

As he opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that the source of the energy fluctuation was not Shang Guan Hong, but Hammer.

Hammer's strength had already reached the peak of the fifth level, and he was only a step away from the sixth level.

Along the way, Hammer had fused with his own weapon, and this had allowed him to break through to the next level.

From the fifth level to the sixth level, in terms of realm, Hammer had already reached the peak of the first level, and was only a small step away from the second level.

However, because his soul had not fully awakened, Hammer's combat strength had been greatly reduced. Even so, it was still very easy for him to kill humans who were comparable to higher life forms.

Zi Chen guessed that when Hammer was at his peak, his strength should be comparable to a real higher life form.

In other words, even if he encountered a higher life form at the same level, he would not be afraid.

Hammer, who had successfully broken through, nodded at Zi Chen. There was an obvious look of joy on his face.

The others opened their eyes and congratulated him.

However, because of Hammer's breakthrough, everyone was stimulated, and this caused them to work even harder in their cultivation.

Of course, at this level, breaking through was not something that could be done with just hard work.

Man Shi cultivated the Mountain Spirit Tyrant Body, which was a very powerful physique. In addition, Man Shi's original body was a mountain spirit, so this cultivation technique was very suitable for him.

When his strength reached a certain limit, he would be able to break through.

Coincidentally, Man Shi found a special power crystal in the Spirit Ring of a dead leader of a force. This crystal was very attractive to Man Shi.

After Man Shi absorbed and refined it, he broke through to the next level as expected.

Now, he could be considered to have officially stepped into the middle stage of the first level. According to the level of Battle Spirits, he was considered to be a fourth level Battle Spirit.

After Man Shi's breakthrough, Wu Xie's Immortal Bloodline also changed. It was directly activated, causing Wu Xie's strength to increase greatly. Not only did he step into the fourth level Battle Spirit in one fell swoop, but he also reached the peak of the fourth level, only one step away from the fifth level.

A few days later, Dong Qing, who had been in seclusion, also broke through. Following her breakthrough, a mysterious power was released from her body. This power was injected into the bodies of the Battle Beasts. Then, a series of beastly roars resounded. It turned out that the Battle Beasts had broken through together with Dong Qing.

This was the strength of a summoner. They could lead the Battle Beasts to break through. At the same time, they could also borrow the power of the Battle Beasts to break through themselves.

Everyone broke through one after another. This was extremely good news for the entire team.

Like a chain reaction, the following people also began to break through one after another.

The green light surrounding Shangguan Hong's body was slowly fading. When it completely dimmed, it would be the time for her to awaken and break through.

In the dilapidated mountain range, the sound of energy explosions could be heard from time to time. This was Man Shi and Wu Xie sparring.

After breaking through, the two of them had been fighting in order to adapt to their current strength.

It was only in battle that they could quickly adapt to their strength.

In this way, the battle continued for ten days. The green light around Shangguan Hong's body finally dissipated.

She sat cross-legged, her body emitting a faint green light. The green light was filled with a strong aura of life. She was like a holy goddess of life.

Between heaven and earth, waves of colorful energy appeared from all directions and rushed towards Shangguan Hong.

These colorful energies were the fused power of nature. They represented an extreme number. Like ribbons, they wrapped around Shangguan Hong's body.

At this moment, within the power of nature, a strong power of wood emerged. That power made Shangguan Hong look even more holy.

Everyone looked at this scene in shock, especially Wu Xie. His shocked expression carried a hint of jealousy.

As these colorful lights entered her body, the holy aura around Shangguan Hong's body was also released.

Soon, her realm broke through and reached the level of a fourth level war spirit. However, all of this did not end. Her realm was still rising in a straight line. Soon, she reached the peak of the fourth level war spirit. Then, she broke through again and reached the fifth level.

She was the first in the group to break through to the fifth level.

This was not only because of the Psychic Domain Crystal, but also because of the previous accumulation.

As she broke through to the fifth level, the rising aura around Shangguan Hong's body also slowed down.

Other than Zi Chen, almost everyone's strength had broken through. Their battle prowess had increased by a large amount, and it was finally time to enter the peak of the third level.

After familiarizing themselves with their battle prowess, everyone left this dilapidated mountain range. Then, they found an exit and stepped into another level.
