Extra Chapter 189: Breakthrough

(It's been a long time since I wrote this book, so I might have forgotten some plots. Please forgive me, I just want to give this book an ending.)

With a slight stir of Li He's mind…

In an instant…

A vortex appeared above Li He's head, and the surrounding energy continuously gathered over him.

At the same time, in the Myriad Sword Pool, Spiritual Qi mixed with the pool water surged vibrantly, instantly turning into countless small swords surrounding Li He…

"Th-This is…!"

Seeing this scene, the surrounding Disciples couldn't help but gasp in exclamations!

Meanwhile, feeling the time was right, Li He immediately began circulating the "Hongmeng Undying Scripture".

At this moment…

Waves of fluctuations surged across the entire Myriad Sword Pool from the energy Li He channeled. With every fluctuation, the energy Aura around him surged higher…

The powerful energy fluctuations even faintly drew Great Dao runes and Great Dao inscriptions to cluster around him.

*Gulp!*

Sounds of swallowing saliva came from the direction of the Disciples…

"T-Too terrifying!

Is… is this the Qi Gathering Realm?

Is this the Qi Gathering Realm?

Is this really the Qi Gathering Realm?"

Everyone asked themselves several times in disbelief, "Is this truly the Qi Gathering Realm?

How… how does the Saint's Qi Gathering Realm feel so terrifying!

No! It's not just a feeling!

It really is this terrifying!

I suspect the Saint could slap me into a critical state right now!"

"Cough, cough, be confident and drop the 'suspect'."

Just as everyone was lightheartedly teasing each other, the Aura surrounding Li He's body grew even more terrifying!

The sense of pressure around him was no less than the Aura generated when someone several major Realms higher broke through.

Sensing that enough energy had accumulated, Li He circulated the "Hongmeng Undying Scripture" once more, but the commotion created this time far exceeded before!

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, accompanied by thunder and lightning, as if doomsday was approaching.

Purple streaks of lightning shuttled through the clouds like wild Dragons dancing, ready to strike down at any moment.

Wild winds howled, snapping their robes loudly in the gale and making it almost impossible for them to keep their eyes open.

The water in the Myriad Sword Pool seemed to boil, churning continuously and giving rise to giant waves thousands of feet high.

The small swords surrounding Li He hummed sonorously, shining brightly as if echoing the lightning in the sky.

Where Li He stood, the space itself seemed unable to withstand this powerful force, showing signs of distorting.

The Aura on his body climbed steadily, growing stronger and stronger, making it difficult for everyone present to breathe, as if an invisible mountain were weighing on their chests.

"I-Is this still a Breakthrough? It's practically going to destroy this world!" a Disciple said with a trembling voice, his face filled with terror.

"With such a terrifying Breakthrough, if he succeeds, what horrifying Realm will the Saint's power reach?"

Another Disciple muttered to himself, his eyes filled with awe and anticipation.

The Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth rushed into Li He's body like a raging torrent.

His body radiated brilliant light, illuminating the entire Myriad Sword Pool as bright as day.

*Rumble!*

With a loud roar, the lightning in the sky finally struck down, heading straight for Li He.

However, Li He was completely fearless. He formed hand seals and chanted softly, casting a beam of light from his body that collided with the lightning.

Instantly, light and lightning intertwined, bursting into dazzling sparks that lit up the entire horizon.

As time passed, the Aura on Li He grew stronger and stronger, and the momentum of his Breakthrough became increasingly astonishing.

The surrounding mountain Peaks began to tremble, boulders rolled down, and cracks appeared in the ground.

The Disciples backed away one after another, terrified of being caught in this frightening power.

They stared at Li He's figure, their hearts filled with shock and disbelief.

"How is this possible? A Qi Gathering Realm Breakthrough can actually trigger such a heaven-and-earth phenomenon!"

An Elder widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Just as everyone was in shock, the Aura on Li He paused suddenly, then erupted in an even more violent manner.

"Not good! This power is too overwhelming; it might go out of control!" someone exclaimed.

However, relying on his powerful willpower and the miraculous force of the "Hongmeng Undying Scripture", Li He steadily kept this power under control.

"Break!"

Li He roared, his voice echoing through the clouds.

Instantly, the Aura on his body breached the Bottleneck of the Qi Gathering Realm, stepping directly into the Yukong Realm.

Furthermore, the momentum of the Breakthrough did not stop, soaring all the way from First-Turn Yukong Realm, to Second-Turn Yukong Realm, and then to Third-Turn Yukong Realm! (Ever since Qi Gathering, his Realms always broke through to the Third Turn in a single breath!)

The Disciples were rendered speechless with shock, staring blankly at Li He as if witnessing the birth of a myth.

Only when Li He's Aura finally settled at the Peak of the Third-Turn Yukong Realm did the natural phenomena gradually calm down.

The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, the lightning vanished, the howling wind ceased, and the Myriad Sword Pool restored its tranquility.

Li He slowly opened his eyes, two sharp beams of light shooting out from them. Feeling the powerful energy within his body, the corners of his lips curved up slightly.

"Is this the power of the Peak Third-Turn Yukong Realm?"

At this moment, the Disciples surged forward around him, their faces brimming with reverence and excitement.

"Congratulations to the Saint on your successful Breakthrough and great surge in power!"

"The Saint's talent is extraordinary; you will surely lead us to glory in the future!"

Looking at the crowd, Li He felt himself being watched by a peculiar gaze.

Li He nodded slightly, and with a flash of his figure, he disappeared from the spot.

In the next instant, Li He appeared in a small courtyard. Standing before him was an old man with a strange expression, looking at Li He as if staring at some Heaven-Defying monster.
