It's finally starting!

Everyone's gaze focused on Yun Liao and Wu Yan, and the sense of anticipation that had been building since entering the Celestial Gate was finally unleashed, as cheers and shouts erupted.

It was as if mountains were calling and seas were roaring.

One person hailed from the Immortal Sect, an arrogant existence proclaiming they would definitely seize the top spot on the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking Red Domain.

The other was a legendary demonic character from the Red Domain, apprenticed to the renowned Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm expert Bai Yan Ke from the Primordial Yang Domain, and the final disciple of Bai Yan Ke, receiving true teachings.

Which of the two is stronger?

This was the question and anticipation in the hearts of everyone at this moment.

As for Wu Yan, people knew quite a lot. Wu Yan had no eyes yet became the final disciple of a renowned Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm expert, and five years ago entered the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression.

The day he entered the Middle Realm, he killed a powerful opponent from the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression, and in the following five years wandered far and wide with Bai Yan Ke, killing those of the Upper Realm, with few opponents in the Upper Realm.

Such power could definitely rank within the top ten of the Red Domain, and could even compete for the first place.

Regarding Yun Liao, all people knew was—he was not cultivating Meridian Gate, but was a mage.

He did not use Vein Technique, but instead wielded unheard-of magical powers. His strength could kill Ji Daoshi, with ordinary top-tier geniuses of the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression being no match for him. Beyond that, nothing was known.

Thus, even some Earth Unrestricted Middle Realm experts couldn't say for sure who would win, who would lose.

As Yun Liao and Wu Yan among the ten walked to the Stone Forest Battlefield, Wu Yan said solemnly: "Yun Liao, my Spirit Body is unlike those five, and has reached the Great Success Realm. Can your magic restrict me?"

Yun Liao was puzzled by Wu Yan's behavior of revealing information to the opponent before the fight, but still responded, "Try it and see."

With that said, Yun Liao stood in the Stone Forest Battlefield.

The other five, including Wu Yan, entered simultaneously and walked to the other end of the Stone Forest Battlefield, finally stopping ten feet from Yun Liao. After the four from the Heaven-Defying Sect found a place to hide, Wu Yan slowly extended his right hand, raised it, then grabbed the air tightly, opening the Meridian Gate.

Bang—

Three golden Meridian Gates trembled slightly, and then the golden Mountain-Suppressing Armor gradually appeared.

"Use your magic now." Wu Yan didn't wait for the Earth Unrestricted experts outside the barrier to call for the start, stomping his feet heavily and standing still like a mountain, waiting for Yun Liao to make a move.

At the same time, the four behind him also opened their Meridian Gates, forming two columns behind Wu Yan. The latter used his hand to press against the back of the person in front, opening Meridian Gates successively, forming a Vein Array in just an instant.

The moment the Meridian Gates formed, the four's Mountain-Suppressing Armor also protected their entire bodies, emitting a brilliant golden light.

Just as Wu Yan said earlier, his Spirit Body really had reached the Great Success Realm.

The four behind him also cultivated Spirit Bodies in the Great Success Realm.

They were far beyond Lei Shi and the others just now!

Yun Liao watched this scene and smiled slightly, his magic wand immediately in hand, "Then let me show you extreme pressure."

After speaking, the chant began.

A moment later, the chant ended.

Immense pressure poured down like a torrential rain, pressing down on the five of Wu Yan, forcing their bodies downward, their feet embedded into the ground.

But Wu Yan and the others did not become immediately immobilized, turning into fish on a chopping board like Lei Shi.

"Interesting, is this the power of magic?" Wu Yan stepped forward, then another step, raising his hand slowly to feel the surrounding pressure, a satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth, "But if this is all, your magic has no real effect on me, it just slows me down. Outside the barrier, I can't sense the strength of your Spirit Body, but now I feel it clearly, it's very weak. It turns out you didn't continue upwards on the Wind and Cloud Platform to avoid the blockade of Extreme Heaven Sealing Heart, but because you couldn't go any farther. With such a Spirit Body, if I punch you a few times, it would be hard to bear, right?"

"You may have no eyes, but you're more detailed than those with them." Yun Liao was quite surprised that Wu Yan quickly saw through his weakness, as he was the first to discover the mage's weakness.

Unfortunately, the Sect Leader had already told him about this weakness.

So he had compensated for this weakness long ago.

After Yun Liao complimented him, Wu Yan suddenly shot out under the extreme pressure, "Then eat my punch!"

Though the extreme pressure did not make Wu Yan's movements swift, he still maintained extraordinary speed. Covering a distance of ten yards took only a few breaths, so Yun Liao simply ceased applying the pressure.

Since the extreme pressure's limit did not stop Wu Yan's actions, expending spiritual power using extreme pressure lost meaning. He's not a simple Earth Mage, no need to keep using Earth Magic.

When the extreme pressure dissipated, Wu Yan and his companions immediately rejoiced, Wu Yan laughed exuberantly, "So this is all your magic? It's strong, but its weakness is laughably obvious. Just a stronger Spirit Body, and I'm beyond your grasp?"

Boom!

With those words, Wu Yan's punch landed solidly where Yun Liao had been standing, shattering the ground within ten feet with the force of the punch. It was a scene of chaos from afar.
