Chapter 79 – Everyone was stunned! What happened?

Before the First Yin City, it was eerily quiet, with tens of thousands of cultivators resuming their cross-legged meditation.

Among the crowd, a group of young faces still bore expressions of shock.

Clearly, the scene from moments ago had left them deeply shaken!

These young people wore identical combat uniforms, with the emblem of “Tianfeng Group” emblazoned on their chests.

“How about it? These 3rd Revolution Invincible Realm Prodigies are quite strong, aren’t they?”

Zong Shan chuckled, glancing at Lu Ming, who stood beside him with a look of astonishment.

“Very strong!”

Lu Ming nodded sincerely, convinced.

He considered himself highly talented, possessing an A-Class Class, but compared to these 3rd Revolution Invincible Realm Prodigies, the gap became immediately apparent.

If he had to describe it, Lu Ming felt there was an insurmountable chasm between him and them—one that was difficult to bridge!

Especially since this chasm couldn’t be closed through diligence alone.

It was innate talent!

It was determined after the Class Change.

Yet, realizing all this left Lu Ming feeling deeply defeated!

His confidence began to waver!

Before, he had been brimming with confidence, believing his future was boundless. But after witnessing these 3rd Revolution Invincible Realm Prodigies, he realized he had been viewing the world from the bottom of a well!

With his talent, he probably couldn’t even touch the hem of their garments.

Zong Shan seemed to sense his thoughts and comforted him with a smile. “You don’t need to feel defeated. After all, these Invincible Realm Prodigies are only a minority.

They’re the tiny few at the very peak of the pyramid.

You possess an A-Class Class. Even if you end up weaker than them, you won’t be far behind.”

“Hmm!”

Hearing Zong Shan’s words, Lu Ming’s eyes regained their sparkle. He nodded firmly, his confidence restored.

As Zong Shan had said, Invincible Realm Prodigies were exceedingly rare. The mainstream was still made up of people like them!

Lu Ming didn’t aspire to be invincible; he only sought to reign supreme beneath the Invincible Realm.

“Haha, I’m glad you understand! Mindset is crucial!”

Zong Shan patted Lu Ming’s shoulder, looking pleased.

As someone who had been through it all, he had seen far more than Lu Ming.

This world was filled with too many Monstrous Talents!

If you compared yourself to everything, you probably wouldn’t survive a single day.

Zong Shan himself had a very open-minded approach, believing that mindset was king!

…

In the silence, someone suddenly whispered.

“Look! What is that person doing?”

The whisper startled many nearby, who opened their eyes and looked toward the First Yin City.

Zong Shan was also drawn in, letting out a soft exclamation as he turned his gaze toward the First Yin City.

In front of the empty First Yin City…

A figure in white robes had appeared.

The white-robed figure walked out alone, strolling leisurely toward the First Yin City as if taking a casual walk.

“What is this person trying to do?”

Zong Shan looked puzzled.

This white-robed figure was actually heading toward Yin City alone.

That was Yin City! Was he going there alone to seek death?

Everyone else gathered teams of over a hundred people before daring to challenge the city.

Lu Ming also looked over curiously.

But when he caught sight of the white-robed figure’s back, he couldn’t help but stare blankly!

That silhouette felt incredibly familiar, as if he had seen it countless times since childhood.

It looked just like his older brother… Ye Sheng!

“Impossible!”

Lu Ming shook his head and laughed.

He found his own thought ridiculous. How could his useless older brother possibly come to a place like this?

Where was this?

This was an ancient land!

And not just any ancient land—it was the perilous Shadow City Secret Realm.

Those who could come were at least 2nd Tier Cultivators.

Ye Sheng probably didn’t even have 1st Tier Level 50 yet.

…

As the white-robed figure walked toward the First Yin City, more and more people began to notice him!

At this moment, the area before the First Yin City was empty, with tens of thousands of cultivators meditating and regulating their breath while seated cross-legged.

The sudden appearance of a white-robed figure was simply too conspicuous!

It was impossible not to notice him!

“What is this person trying to do?”

Some experts frowned coldly, unable to understand the white-robed figure’s actions.

“It looks like… he intends to storm the city?”

Someone said uncertainly.

“Storm the city?”

Upon hearing this, many scoffed.

“How is that possible?”

“Storming the city alone? Does he think he’s in the Invincible Realm too? Ridiculous! Haha!”

After saying this, the crowd burst into laughter.

“Then what is he trying to do?”

Someone sneered, “He might just be seeking attention. It’s not like we haven’t seen such show-offs before!”

“That’s true!”

Many nodded in agreement. Indeed, there had been quite a few attention-seekers who had done such things, and many were already accustomed to it.

“He’ll retreat on his own soon enough. No need to pay him any mind!”

After saying this, one person closed his eyes.

Not far away.

Zong Shan, hearing the discussions, also laughed and said, “It seems this person wants to make a splash!”

“Probably so!”

Lu Ming nodded, though his gaze remained fixed on the white-robed figure’s retreating back…

…

“Wait, he really is going to storm the city!”

Suddenly, someone shouted!

The voice carried far, drawing the attention of everyone present.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Many among the tens of thousands of cultivators opened their eyes and looked in unison.

Under everyone’s gaze,

The white-robed figure, as he walked, actually rose into the air, ascending step by step as if climbing an invisible staircase, heading straight for the First Yin City.

In the blink of an eye, he arrived above the Yin City.

“What?!”

Many were shocked, unable to process what they were seeing.

Then, an even more unbelievable scene unfolded before their eyes.

After arriving above the Yin City, the white-robed figure no longer restrained his aura. Instead, he erupted with the unmistakable presence of the Invincible Realm!

He drew a talisman in mid-air and struck out with a palm.

The next moment!

The sky above the First Yin City instantly darkened with ominous clouds, as ten thousand bolts of Heavenly Thunder surged within.

Some faintly heard… the white-robed figure murmuring under his breath,

“Celestial Master’s Decree!”

“Annihilate!”

The next moment.

Boom!

Everyone’s vision turned completely white as ten thousand bolts of thunder suddenly descended from the dark clouds, striking the First Yin City.

The deafening roar of ten thousand thunders left everyone’s ears ringing and their senses overwhelmed.

It was impossible to tell how much time had passed.

The world grew quiet once more, and the blinding whiteness gradually faded from everyone’s vision, restoring their sight.

But when everyone saw the scene before them clearly, their jaws nearly dropped in shock.

The First Yin City was empty!

That’s right!

Completely empty!

Not a single Yin Soldier could be seen within the entire city, and the banners on the walls had turned to ashes.

The entire Yin City emitted a charred smell, with black smoke rising from the aftermath of the thunderous baptism.

As for the white-robed figure, he had long since vanished.

“Huh?!”

“What just happened?”

The tens of thousands of cultivators were dumbfounded, feeling as if their brains had short-circuited.

Not a single one could comprehend what had just occurred!

Everything had simply happened too quickly.

An unfamiliar white-robed figure emerged, then ascended step by step into the air, arriving above the Yin City before unleashing the aura of the Invincible Realm!

Then, a sky full of thunder, a thorough wash, thoroughly cleansing the First Yin City.

Then he calmly left and disappeared!

The entire incident was over in less than a minute.

Everyone was left gaping, staring at the scene in disbelief.

No one had expected… that after several Prodigies of the Invincible Realm had left, another Invincible Realm expert would suddenly appear out of thin air!

Most importantly,

this Invincible Realm expert looked completely unfamiliar.

Not a single person present recognized him!

For a moment, the entire area before the First Yin City fell into silence, as everyone forgot how to speak.
