Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Invincible Throughout the Ages

As Wang Qing rushed towards the stele, the scene around it was still boiling.

Boiling for a long time.

Everyone was excited for a long time, unable to suppress the excitement in their hearts.

Wei Zongyuan’s subordinates were looking at Wei Zongyuan with adoration and extreme zeal.

As if they were looking at a god!

A god who would become incredibly powerful in the future!

Everyone was boiling with excitement, everyone was stirred up, but Wei Zongyuan himself was calm.

He turned his head, looked at Yang Xiaotian as if a deity were gazing at a tiny mortal, “Yang Xiaotian, my talent is six thousand! It’s not too late for you to admit you were wrong.”

Although Wei Zongyuan’s talent had broken six thousand, it had just stopped right there at the six thousand mark.

“Admit I was wrong?” Yang Xiaotian looked at the confident and condescending Wei Zongyuan and smiled faintly, “Why should I admit I was wrong?”

He then said, “Just six thousand, I can break six thousand with a casual strike.”

“What? Break six thousand with a casual strike!” The crowd on-site couldn’t help but be astonished.

Suddenly, Liang Lin burst into laughter: “Yang Xiaotian, why don’t you say you can break seven thousand with a casual strike?”

All of Wei Zongyuan’s subordinates sneered with laughter.

“Maybe he can really break seven thousand with a casual strike.”

The crowd burst into laughter.

Even the Little Medicine King Li Yutian, Long Batian, and several others shook their heads and smiled.

They thought Yang Xiaotian was being ridiculous.

After all, Wei Zongyuan had used all his might in one strike to barely break six thousand, which was already a divine miracle never seen before, yet Yang Xiaotian claimed he could break six thousand with a casual strike?

Wasn’t that ludicrous?

Upon hearing this, Wei Zongyuan laughed and looked at Yang Xiaotian as if watching a clown, “Good, then I’ll wait for you to casually break six thousand! Let me widen my horizons.”

He then moved aside and made a gesture, indicating for Yang Xiaotian to come forward.

Yang Xiaotian walked up to the stele.

All eyes were on Yang Xiaotian, including Zuo Qiu’s and Mu Yunchun’s.

Upon arriving at the stele, Yang Xiaotian didn’t summon any Sword Qi and merely threw a punch casually towards the stele.

A very casual punch.

Without any momentum.

And without an earth-shattering force.

However, when this punch landed on the stele, suddenly, there was a loud “bang” from the stele, and the whole stele seemed about to explode, even the ground around the stele shook incessantly.

Everyone was stunned.

Even when Wei Zongyuan had used the powerful Ming Wang Motionless Sword Body with full force, the stele had only buzzed loudly, without seeming about to explode.

The ground around had not shaken like this either.

Long Batian and several others were also taken aback.

While everyone was shocked, suddenly, a dazzling golden light burst from the base of the stele into the sky.

“A golden light!”

“How can there be a golden light!”

Seeing that Yang Xiaotian’s talent light was actually golden, everyone was greatly astonished.

Because no one’s talent light had ever been golden before, not even Wei Zongyuan’s just now.

It was the first time anyone had seen a golden light from the stele.

Even Wei Zongyuan, upon seeing Yang Xiaotian’s golden talent light, was filled with surprise and disbelief.

As everyone was astonished, the golden light quickly reached a thousand, and then within a breath’s time, it surged past two thousand.

The speed was so fast that it was utterly frightening.

“Three thousand!”

By the time everyone realized what was happening, Yang Xiaotian’s golden light had already broken past three thousand.

The laughing crowd, including Liang Lin and others, suddenly stopped smiling.

Heaven and Earth quieted down.

“Hum!”

When Yang Xiaotian’s golden light broke past four thousand, the light from the stele surged more intensely, illuminating the surrounding mountains in gold, and everyone seemed to have been draped in a layer of gold.

And the ground around shook more and more violently.

The confidence and the smile had completely vanished from Wei Zongyuan’s face.

In the grim expression on Wei Zongyuan’s face, the golden light swiftly broke through five thousand, gushing from the monument like a fountain, causing the entire stone tablet to tremble incessantly.

The ground around it was like a level twelve earthquake.

“Five thousand!” Seeing Xiaotian’s golden talent light break through five thousand in just a few breaths, everyone was utterly shocked.

“Could it really break through six thousand?” A family elder’s lips quivered.

Just now, Xiaotian said that he could break six thousand with just a casual strike.

Everyone, recalling what Xiaotian had just said, felt their hearts tremble.

When Wei Zongyuan used all his power to execute the King’s Immovable Sword Strike, he barely broke six thousand, which had already been a divine miracle of antiquity. If Xiaotian could break six thousand with just a casual strike, what would that be?

Soon, the golden light surged to five thousand nine hundred.

It continued to approach six thousand.

Everyone forgot to breathe.

Boom!

As Xiaotian’s golden light burst through six thousand in an instant, the stone tablet exploded with a sound like that of the Nine Heaven Divine Thunder.

The golden light, like a sea of gold, burst forth from the stone tablet, dyeing the skies above the surrounding mountains with its color.

In that moment, everything around had turned to gold.

The ground was like a level fifteen earthquake, causing sand and stones on the surface to dance wildly.

“Six thousand!” Everyone’s faces were filled with shock, disbelief, and incredulity.

A casual strike, and it actually broke six thousand?

Wei Zongyuan’s face was extremely unsightly, his hands shaking.

The Little Medicine King, Long Batian, and Phoenix Lady were also beyond shocked.

Being geniuses only second to Wei Zongyuan, they of course understood what six thousand meant.

The key point was that Xiaotian’s golden talent light hadn’t stopped; it was still climbing.

“Six thousand one hundred!” Someone’s voice trembled as they spoke.

“Six thousand two hundred!”

“Six thousand three hundred!”

As Xiaotian’s golden talent light firmly made its way toward seven thousand, step by step, everyone was shook beyond compare.

“Could it be breaking through seven thousand?” Someone muttered.

Seven thousand!

Everyone’s hearts were trembling.

“Six thousand seven hundred!”

“Six thousand eight hundred!”

As if to confirm everyone’s speculation, the golden light kept climbing steadily.

“Seven thousand!”

The moment the golden light broke through seven thousand, the monument’s golden light shot up to the heavens, piercing the clouds.

All were pale with astonishment.

Wei Zongyuan felt as though darkness had fallen before his eyes.

“Ancient and unmatched!” someone in the crowd exclaimed.

Ancient and unmatched!

Everyone was caught in a maelstrom of shock.

From afar, Wang Qing was hurrying towards the monument when he suddenly saw the golden light shooting into the sky, scattering the clouds of the Nine Heavens, which made him exclaim in astonishment, “What is this?”

Could Wei Zongyuan’s assessment still not be finished?

Wei Zongyuan actually caused such an astonishing phenomenon!

He couldn’t help but quicken his pace towards the monument.

When Wang Qing arrived, he saw that the area inside and out was packed with people; it was impenetrable, and he couldn’t see what was happening inside.

Since everyone was stunned by the extraordinary occurrence at the monument, no one noticed Wang Qing’s arrival.

Elbowing his way through the crowd, Wang Qing caught sight of the golden light that had halted on the monument.

When he saw the numbers on the monument, he cried out in shock, “Seven thousand three hundred and twenty-one!”

Then he turned his gaze to the figure standing in front of the stone tablet.

“Yang Xiaotian!” he called out tremblingly.

Even though it was just a back figure, he still recognized Xiaotian.

The one who had caused such an extraordinary phenomenon with the monument was actually Xiaotian!
