The entire Heavenly Mist City seemed to be boiling at this moment. A funnel-shaped Spirit Energy vortex appeared in the sky above the Heavenly Mist City, covering the entire city.
The massive spirit energy moved and hovered. At this moment, the entire Heavenly Mist City seemed to darken, and the wind and clouds changed colors.
Many people didn't know what was going on. They had just experienced a terrifying battle, and now, such a terrifying phenomenon appeared. Many residents of Heavenly Mist City thought it was the end of the world.
However, some knowledgeable people didn't think so.
It was an expert breaking through!
Some people exclaimed inwardly. Some were so excited, and some even opened their arms, bathing in the spirit energy that seemed to have condensed into liquid form …
They crazily absorbed the Spiritual Qi, feeling the comfortable feeling when the Spiritual Qi poured into their bodies and washed over their bodies.
When a peerless expert broke through, they would also benefit from it.
When a man achieved the Dao, even his chickens and dogs could ascend to Heaven.
The glory obtained would benefit many people, and the spiritual energy vortex caused by the breakthrough of a top-notch expert would increase the density of the spiritual energy by several times.
Cultivating in such a dense environment would yield half the result with twice the effort!
Inside the restaurant …
Chu Changsheng's entire body bloomed with dazzling light. A white soul ladder emerged above his head.
The seven-step soul ladder was really magical. Lines moved on it, and each step was flat and smooth. The higher one climbed, the more magical it became …
It bloomed with dazzling light, which was as dazzling as white jade.
The jade moved, and energy boiled.
Chu Changsheng's entire body became solemn. He opened his mouth, and energy gushed out. His body glowed as he was receiving the baptism of the heaven and earth spirit energy.
His bones seemed to radiate light, which was really magical.
With Chu Changsheng as the center, Nangong Wuque and the others sat cross-legged around him, closing their eyes to break through.
Their bodies were also densely covered in Spirit Qi, and shackles were swaying in the void.
After eating a piece of Taotie's hoof, many people had broken through at the same time.
Xiao Ya looked at them suspiciously. She was pulled by Bu Fang, and Bu Fang's bandaged hand touched the little girl's head.
"Bu Fang brat … You still owe your Lord Gou a meal of Sweet 'n' Sour Taotie's Meat Ribs. Don't think of reneging on your debt. Lord Gou will go take a nap first. Come and wake your Lord Gou when you are done …" Lord Gou opened his mouth wide and yawned before walking toward the Path-Understanding Tree.
To him, the energy in the Taotie's meat was better than nothing. It could help Chu Changsheng and Nangong Wuque break through, but if he wanted the Lord Gou to break through …
This was simply impossible …
The corner of Bu Fang's mouth twitched. This lazy dog was too much … He had just eaten the roasted Taotie's hoof, but he was still thinking about the Sweet 'n' Sour Taotie Ribs.
He only knew how to eat all day! He was so fat, but he was still thinking about eating.
Bu Fang shook his head, sighing emotionally. Where was the handsome, divine Lord Gou?
"These little fellows are breaking through … They're really noisy." Lord Dog's gentle and magnetic voice rang out. Then, it laid down under the Path-Understanding Tree and fell into a deep slumber in no time.
Since Bu Fang's breakthrough was different from theirs, he was okay after eating the roasted Taotie's hoof.
Xiao Ya didn't know why, but she wasn't affected.
The others were breaking through.
Even Luo Danqing, who was hurt badly, seemed to be recovering fast. Moreover, his mental state was improving unceasingly, and his aura was increasing. Rumble!
Rumble!
In the void, countless wisps of spirit energy congregated, and the formidable mental energy floated.
Chu Changsheng frowned, sitting cross-legged. Both of his hands were making strange hand seals. His mind was shaken.
Bu Fang's eyes were bright. It was the first time he saw a Divine Soul Realm expert break through.
Because of the system, Bu Fang's breakthrough was always done quietly. This was the first time he saw such a grand breakthrough, so he was a little curious.
Buzz …
After a buzzing sound, Chu Changsheng's entire body shivered.
A moment later, mental energy gathered above his head, turning into a little man. It was Chu Changsheng.
His white beard and hair fluttered in the wind.
Chu Changsheng's eyes were solemn and serious. When one reached the Divine Soul Realm, every breakthrough was a test.
The Divine Soul Realm had nine steps of the soul ladder. After each step, the mental energy would be stronger, and the God Soul would also be stronger.
Being able to condense eight steps of the soul ladder meant that one's competence was considered first-class in the Hidden Dragon Continent.
Even some experts at the Divine Soul Realm with an eight-step soul ladder could be called Almighty!
They could break the void and travel through it!
That kind of existence was truly intimidating!
Because of their powerful God Soul, they weren't afraid of the void's erosion. Their bodies were also nourished by the God Soul, which made them more intimidating than the Divine Physique Realm!
If the Divine Physique Realm was the foundation, then the Divine Soul Realm was the foundation to build a skyscraper.
The nine-step soul ladder was the skyscraper!
Once the skyscraper was completed, one could overlook the common people …
The real existence at the Divine Soul Realm with a nine-step soul ladder was the real Almighty!
Almighty, even in the holy lands, were existences that could subdue an entire region. In the other forces of the Hidden Dragon Continent, they were the pillars!
And above the Divine Soul Realm was the Divine Spirit Realm. To reach the Divine Spirit Realm, one must first step on the nine-step soul ladder and ignite the divine flame in the God Soul …
Only then could one become a real existence at the Divine Spirit Realm!
Once one entered the Divine Spirit Realm, he would be an existence at the level of a sect master. In the entire Hidden Dragon Continent, he would be the real peak existence!
The previous White Taotie was a spirit beast at the Almighty level.
Of course, to a large extent, this Almighty level wasn't true. Since the White Taotie had just broken the seal, many of its abilities hadn't recovered yet.
Perhaps its fighting capacity was equal to an existence at the Divine Soul Realm with an eight-step soul ladder.
And because of that, the Lord Gou had smashed it to death with his paw!
No doubt, the fat black dog in the Cloud Mist Restaurant was a real spirit beast at the Almighty level!
There was no doubt about it. It was an existence at the Peak of the Great Ethereal Realm among the Netherworld creatures!
Chu Changsheng, who had transformed into a little man, wore a solemn face.
Facing an earth-shaking pressure, he strode forward, stepping on the jade white soul ladder.
The pressure expanded.
Boom! He stepped on the first step of the soul ladder.
Without slowing down, he continued to step on the second step of the soul ladder...
Then, the third step, the fourth step …
The further he went, the longer it took him to prepare. Because the higher the soul ladder was, the greater the pressure on his mental energy was, and the greater the effect on his God Soul.
He was under a lot of pressure, so he walked even slower.
Finally, under such a difficult situation, he stepped on the seventh step of the soul ladder.
In front of the seventh step was a torrential spirit energy storm. That spirit energy storm was like a terrifying beast opening its mouth as if it wanted to swallow everything.
Chu Changsheng didn't stop, continuing to stride forward.
One of his feet stepped on the void.
Energy moved. Countless wisps of spirit energy and energy gathered under his feet, turning into real entities. His mental energy surged torrentially.
Chu Changsheng felt that the energy in his body was boiling unceasingly.
His body bloomed with dazzling light. Rumble!
Rumble!
The spirit energy storm above Heavenly Mist City continued to sweep. Lightning flashed, and the storm roared!
Under Chu Changsheng's feet, the white light condensed, turning into the new eighth step of the soul ladder.
It was as white as a beautiful jade, incomparably dazzling.
He had finally broken through to the Divine Soul Realm with an eight-step soul ladder!
On the eighth step, it was a pitch-black chaos. Chu Changsheng, who had transformed into a little man, watched for a long time before turning into light and dispersing …
The ninth step of the soul ladder wasn't something he could create at this moment.
His cultivation base wasn't high enough, and his innate talent … couldn't reach that level.
He wasn't like many spirit beasts. As long as they could survive and absorb the essence of heaven and earth for a long time, they would eventually break through …
Or, they could rely on the bloodline of the Antiquity Time spirit beasts to enter a higher realm.
Humans couldn't do it. They needed to struggle and work hard. They had to rely on their innate talents and amazing perseverance …
And opportunities.
Chu Changsheng was considered an outstanding expert. However, reaching this level, he felt a little bewildered and dispirited.
If he hadn't had a chance to eat the roasted Taotie's hoof, he didn't know how long it would take him to create the eighth step of the soul ladder!
The eight steps of the soul ladder had fused into one. The light it emitted was warm and comfortable.
It shrouded people, giving them a comfortable feeling.
The eight steps of the soul ladder bloomed. From the eighth step of the soul ladder, a powerful soul energy shot down, shining on Chu Changsheng's glabella. Then, it slowly disappeared.
Chu Changsheng's eyelids twitched. Slowly, he opened his eyes. Light seemed to move in his eyes. His spirit, Qi, and soul had become completely different.
Opening his mouth, Chu Changsheng exhaled a mouthful of murky air. He looked much younger now.
Although he still had white hair and eyebrows, his eyes were sparkling. He was much more energetic than many young people.
Chu Changsheng was really strong. At the Divine Soul Realm with a seven-step soul ladder, he could fight against an expert with an eight-step soul ladder. Now, at the Divine Soul Realm with an eight-step soul ladder, he could compete with an Almighty expert.
Some monstrous talents could be called Almighty at the Divine Soul Realm with an eight-step soul ladder because they could travel through the void. Boom!
Boom! Boom!
Everyone started to retract their auras.
Nangong Wuque opened his eyes, which were filled with excitement.
His power had broken through, and it wasn't a small breakthrough. He had broken four of the Supreme-Being's shackles. He just needed one more to reach the Peak of Divine Physique Echelon.
His rate of improvement made him feel a little crazy.
Today, he could be said to be the Head of the Heavenly Mist City's number one family.
With his power, he could bring the Nangong family up easily.
"What a pity … Wan 'er isn't here. It's a pity to miss this chance." Nangong Wuque was a little upset. He should have brought Nangong Wan here today.
Even if he used his toes to think, he knew that Bu Fang wouldn't sell the Taotie's meat. Thus, it was impossible for Nangong Wan to eat such delicious food that could help her break through again!
Of course, he could shamelessly beg Bu Fang. However, he thought that with Bu Fang's character, only God knew if he would agree or not.
Otherwise, why would he let Wan 'er stick to Bu Fang?
Nangong Wuque once again had the idea of becoming Bu Fang's brother-in-law.
However, after thinking for a while, he glanced at the Netherworld Ship anchored under the Path-understanding Tree and gave up.
Luo Danqing had also broken through. Not only had his wounds healed, but his cultivation base had also broken through to the Divine Soul Realm with a four-step soul ladder.
Yang Meiji and Sorceress An Sheng had also broken through. Their progress wasn't much different from Nangong Wuque's. When they opened their eyes, they were so happy.
Essence energy gushed out of his mouth. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Bu Fang.
He had to thank Bu Fang for this unexpected breakthrough. There was no doubt about it.
However, since they had eaten, it was time to do some business.
Chu Changsheng stood up, his eyes falling on the little girl Xiao Ya by Bu Fang.
Xiao Ya had eaten a whole piece of Taotie's hoof, but she didn't show any sign of breaking through after half a year … This made the corners of Chu Changsheng's mouth twitch.
Indeed … The Valley Master had placed that thing in the little girl's body!
No wonder why the little girl could seal the Black Taotie's soul with her body.
Only the little girl, who had received that thing's nourishment, could resist the furious Taotie's soul and survive until now.
Otherwise, this little girl would have been torn apart by the Taotie's soul!
Not everybody was as monstrous as Bu Fang, who could easily subdue the Taotie's soul.
The gap between a human's body and a spirit beast's was too big.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Owner Bu. However, I'm here this time to bring Xiao Ya back to the Valley of Gluttony. Our Valley of Gluttony needs her," said Chu Changsheng, his eyes bright.
