Young Master in Flower City

In his eyes, there seemed to be only the sword.

Even if the power of the Heavenly Dao was strong, he still cleaved it with a single sword, the sharpness remaining unchanged.

"To take the ninth step, it is indeed surprising. With your talent, you are worthy of dying by my hand!"

At this moment, Tu Zhan’s voice continuously trembled through the space, as he prepared to take the tenth step, a step known as a barrier, extraordinarily difficult to cross.

Currently, though Xiao Tianyu and others were on par with him, he did not regard them.

He said that with Xiao Tianyu and their talent, they were worthy for him, Tu Zhan, to kill them.

These words surprisingly did not evoke great resentment, simply because that was Tu Zhan, known as the Sword King and a prodigy of the heavens, rumored that no living person had survived under Tu Zhan’s blade.

To earn this title shows how strong and powerful he is.

Boom~

After a long preparation, Tu Zhan finally took the tenth step.

This step, was once his limit, whether today he could break it.

Crash~

In an instant, a monstrous destructive torrent surged from the Ghost Cave, the void changed color, the power of the Heavenly Dao turned into lightning continuously striking down from the sky, the Heavenly Dao’s might contained within the tenth step seemed sufficient to destroy everything.

Tu Zhan’s gaze was fixed, his expression filled with a belief never seen before.

The Heavenly Dao’s might above the tenth step would not crush him.

Buzz~

The Dao Intent swept, an endless storm of blades roared from around Tu Zhan, at this moment Tu Zhan seemed to transform into a peerless treasure sword, destroying all, the rolling Dao Intent soared across the heavens.

Finally, he stood steadily there.

The tenth step, succeeded.

Outstandingly singular.

There was still only Tu Zhan alone.

"You are not the only one who can take the tenth step!"

Before Tu Zhan’s aura stabilized, a voice came from behind.

Xiao Tianyu said, you are not the only one who can take the tenth step.

Boom~

Indeed, as the words just fell, Xiao Tianyu stepped out, his long hair flying, elegant as ever, standing on the tenth step, like a supreme king, overlooking the world, letting the Heavenly Dao’s might ravage, yet unable to shake his belief.

His feet, as if rooted, stood there.

Was Tu Zhan terrifying?

However, Xiao Tianyu was still frightening, closely following his pace, also stepping that difficult step, once again equaling with Tu Zhan, dazzlingly brilliant.

In this way, Tu Zhan’s previous strong words seemed to become a joke.

Looking at Xiao Tianyu’s back, countless hearts trembled.

Tonight, Tu Zhan’s Ghost Cave Road competition was originally the most dazzling, after it ended, it would be Xiao Tianyu’s death knell, but Xiao Tianyu had a talent no weaker than his, forcefully stepping onto the tenth step.

Tu Zhan’s limit was here, but Xiao Tianyu easily broke it.

Seeing this, Tu Zhan’s brow furrowed, clearly sensing a trace of threat.

If he continued further, what would the result be?

The last three steps could truly be called death-defying.

A slight mistake would indeed mean dying here.

But his eyes suddenly sharpened, unwilling to be on par with others, his aura roared, lifting his right foot.

Seeing this, countless people trembled with fear, would he take the first step of the death-defying three steps?

If successful, it would definitely bring a magnificent transformation.

But what if failure occurred, could Tu Zhan bear the consequences of failure?

Along with Tu Zhan’s footsteps, too many hearts trembled, for the last three steps, very few have succeeded, today, could Tu Zhan truly break the limit, achieve himself, and take that most difficult step.

Boom~

As the sound of the footsteps fell, Tu Zhan indeed took the first step of the last three steps, the proud body standing there, blood continuously spewing from his mouth, his body under the boundless Heavenly Dao’s dazzling might, slightly embarrassed.

It was clear that Tu Zhan’s body trembled, anytime he could possibly collapse and be buried here.

"Drink!"

Tu Zhan suddenly shouted, blade intent boundless, Daoist Will Mirror Shattering, stepping into the Second Layer, brought about a brilliant transformation, his Dao momentum soaring, like a peerless treasured sword, proudly standing there.

"Transformed?"

"Tu Zhan’s Daoist Will Mirror Shattering, stepping into the Second Layer, this step did not destroy his body, instead it achieved him!" someone spoke, the void suddenly fell silent, this step was truly the step of death.

And he, Tu Zhan, succeeded.

Not only succeeded, his talent also soared a step higher.

Duan Sanqing, Luo Qiu, Luo Haishan... and other prodigies standing at the sixth step, watching Tu Zhan’s back, their expressions all solidified.

Tu Zhan, known as the Sword King, was destined to be the focus today, unique.

That step, was death.

Apart from Tu Zhan, who could succeed?

Swish swish~

Even, many gazes looked toward Xiao Tianyu, Xiao Tianyu’s previous arrogance seemed to have already become a joke.

Even though Xiao Tianyu took the tenth step, compared to the current Tu Zhan, he seemed dim.

When the Ghost Cave Road ended, it was surely Xiao Tianyu’s death knell.

"Now see the gap between you and me, this step, no one can succeed, except for me!" In Tu Zhan’s words, filled with a state of arrogance, the eleventh step, he succeeded, overlooking the world, how many could achieve it?

This was Tu Zhan’s demeanor.

Boom~

However, before Tu Zhan’s words fell, only to see Xiao Tianyu also took that step without any hesitation, even though it was the death-defying first step, he still pressed forward, exuding a Ling Yun-like charisma.

Crash~

At this instant, Xiao Tianyu felt the entirety of the Heavenly Dao’s might in the Ghost Cave fall upon him, wishing to annihilate his will, to erase everything of him, even producing an illusion, facing not the Heavenly Dao but the Dao of all beings.

Xiao Tianyu’s eyes shot a brilliant light, even everything contained within the Ghost Cave, became clearly perceivable, perception greatly enhanced, everything around fell within his scope of perception.

Will unextinguishable, letting the Heavenly Dao’s might sweep.

The eleventh step, though frightening, still could not destroy Xiao Tianyu’s belief.

Daoist Will Mirror Shattering, Fourth Layer.

Dao Heart solidified.

Heavenly Dao’s might, transforming into his power, could extinguish the Heavenly Dao.

Heavenly Dao punishment, for him, was actually elevating his Dao Power.

This Dao Power is meant for the Heavenly Dao.

His body standing there, as if eternal and unfailing.

"Succeeded!"

"God, Xiao Tianyu also succeeded, death-defying three steps, similarly succeeded in taking the first step!"

"This, how is it possible?"

Many gazes, strangely looked at Tu Zhan, earlier Tu Zhan was arrogant, unparalleled, claiming this step that no one could succeed except him.

What about now?

Now he was invisibly hit by Xiao Tianyu.

Taking the eleventh step is not only Tu Zhan, Xiao Tianyu also managed.

Tu Zhan’s expression was extremely cold, having already broken the limit, taken the eleventh step, supposed to be most dazzling, but soon after once again was broken by Xiao Tianyu, for him, it seemed very ironic.

Moreover, Tu Zhan knew, it was already his limit, impossible to proceed further.

To go further, it would be no different than seeking death.
