I bear witness to immortality in the human world.

Chapter 207 Passing Through the Ninth Floor

Swish.

Wu Ming's eyes were cold and clear. Finally, with a thought, the blood-red light reversed and the flying sword returned. The spreading lightning also quickly subsided, and the Divine Firmament Thunder Technique was also dispelled by him.

With both thunder magic and flying sword techniques withdrawn, the Sun-Devouring Tiger, freed from its restraints, instantly became even more ferocious, as if breaking free of its shackles, and charged towards his thunder elemental avatar, intending to completely tear it apart.

"To get past this level, it seems I'll have to show some real skill..."

Wu Ming stared at this scene, his eyes calm and still. After withdrawing his various techniques, his soul was also freed from its shackles. He closed his eyes slightly, his primordial spirit trembled, and his soul drew out a completely different power from within.

It was a spark, a blazing spark, bursting forth with billions of flames.

boom! ! !
Crimson Flame Burning Heaven Dharma Form!

Then, fierce and boundless flames burst forth from within the Thunder Origin Dharma Image, instantly engulfing the entire ninth level of space and turning it into a sea of ​​fire. The towering flames surged like a tidal wave.

Although thunder and fire are similar in nature, they are fundamentally different. The fiery power of the Burning Heaven Dharma Form cannot be fused with the Thunder Element Dharma Form without any hindrance, just like the Divine Firmament Thunder Dharma Form. Therefore, at the moment the Burning Heaven Dharma Form is awakened, although the two forces are intertwined, they are like two liquids of different natures, unable to merge, and even more conflicting with each other.

"Gather."

However, with Wu Ming's chant, the blazing flames were instantly tamed and swept back inward like flowing water, merging with the pervasive lightning. They took shape at an extremely fast speed, eventually transforming into a giant of fire, standing on the ninth floor of the Hidden Dragon Tower, clad in armor woven with the power of lightning!

The Dharma Form of Heaven and Earth Thunder and Flame!

Under Wu Ming's control, the Burning Heaven Dharma Form and the Thunder Element Dharma Form were perfectly fused together. These two Dharma Forms were extremely powerful Dharma Form Divine Abilities in themselves. When Wu Ming pushed them to their limits, they both possessed the power of a half-step sixth refinement. Now that they were perfectly combined, the surging pressure and power immediately took a step forward and completely crossed the boundary!
It was almost the instant Wu Ming unleashed his Heaven and Earth Flame Thunder Dharma Form.

Not far from the Hidden Dragon Pagoda, Meng Huaizhen, the academy's headmaster, who was gazing at the towering structure, suddenly widened his eyes, nearly dropping the wine gourd in his hand.

"This, this, this..."

"Ok?"

Gao Yuanheng, who was standing to the side, was slightly taken aback when he saw Meng Huaizhen's reaction. Although he was a Seventh Blood Grandmaster, he could not detect the situation inside the Hidden Dragon Tower. Only Meng Huaizhen, a Seventh Refinement Daoist, could manipulate the formation and spy on the scene inside the tower.

"Merging Dharma Forms? How old is this kid? He can already merge Dharma Forms, and he's merged them so perfectly."

Meng Huaizhen's eyes widened, her tone tinged with shock.

The Fighting Technique is the core of Wu Ming's primordial spirit, which he cannot see. All he can see is Wu Ming wielding two top-tier Dharma forms and perfectly fusing them together.

……

Inside the tower.

Wu Ming, who had merged the two Dharma forms of Burning Heaven and Thunder Element, was a towering figure, like a true god of thunder and fire. Under the support of the Dharma form's power, he floated in mid-air, looking down at the Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon.

The Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon was controlled by the formation and had no intelligence. It knew nothing of fear, but its state did not change. After being repelled by the fire power unleashed by Wu Ming, it quickly bared its teeth and broke free, then pounced again.

boom.

Wu Ming's action was also simple and brutal: he clenched his fist and delivered a punch straight to the head.

This strike, wielding the Dharma form, was a fist engulfed in blazing flames, with a layer of lightning armor covering its surface. As the fist landed, heavenly thunder and earthly fire intertwined, unleashing an aura of destruction.

"Ouch."

The massive body of the Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon was blasted away, letting out a whimper.

The power of a single move can overwhelm nine levels!

After unleashing the Fusion Dharma Form, Wu Ming's power was clearly superior to that of the Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon, almost reaching the level of a normal sixth-level cultivator!

To unleash power at the fifth level of cultivation, breaking through the threshold of the sixth level and approaching the normal sixth level, might be relatively common in the cultivation holy lands of the Great Jin Dynasty, with a few people in each generation. But in a small country like Yong Kingdom, it is a rare sight, perhaps only seen once in a thousand years!
Roar.

After being blasted away, the Sun-Eating Tiger shook itself off, stood up again, and let out a roar.

Its strength level was at the threshold of the sixth transformation, so it was naturally not enough to be defeated by Wu Ming in one move. As a product of the formation, it had no fear. After roaring, it pounced on Wu Ming again, and was once again repelled by Wu Ming.

boom! boom! boom! ! !
Wu Ming controlled the Thunderflame Dharma Form, forcing the Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon into a retreat. After launching dozens of fierce attacks, he concentrated all his power into one place, then clasped his arms together and pushed forward with a mighty thrust.

In an instant, the fused power of thunder and fire erupted from within the Thunderflame Dharma Form, like a pillar of fire wrapped in lightning, instantly engulfing the Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon.

The Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon roared, unleashing bursts of power to fight against the lightning and fire. At the same time, it opened its mouth wide, attempting to devour some of the lightning and fire power. However, Wu Ming ignored it, letting it devour him, and further stimulated its power to the extreme.

at last.

Rumble.

The Devouring Tiger Demon's Devouring Divine Power reached its limit. The Thunder and Fire Power it had devoured could no longer be suppressed and suddenly exploded inside its belly, causing its entire form to shatter into pieces!
"call."

After defeating the Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon on the spot, Wu Ming's lightning and fire power quickly dissipated, and he fell from the sky.

His gaze swept over the shattered Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon. A sixth-transformation Great Demon King was indeed no easy opponent. Although he had only used the Thunderflame Dharma Form and had not yet revealed his ultimate trump card—the fusion of three Dharma Forms and the gathering of their power—he had still pushed the Thunderflame Dharma Form to its limit.

He was able to defeat his opponent because the battle took place on the ninth floor of the Hidden Dragon Tower, a narrow environment with little room to dodge or escape. In addition, the tiger demon formed by the array lacked intelligence and only knew how to fight him head-on. Under these circumstances, his strength was slightly superior, which naturally led to his final victory.

It would be different if we were outside.

Even if a Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon at the sixth level of transformation is weaker than him, as long as it possesses intelligence, it can entangle him through various means. This slight difference makes it very difficult to overcome.

Even if he were to merge the Earthly Fiend Dharma Form, combining the three forms into one, and further enhance the power of the Dharma Form to the level of a normal sixth-level master, the opponent would still have a chance to escape. In any case, killing such a tiger demon would not be so easy.

Just as Wu Ming was staring at the disintegrating Sun-Devouring Tiger Demon, assessing his current level of strength...

hum!
A beam of brilliant green light shone.

This green light shone from the top floor of the Hidden Dragon Tower, its brilliance far surpassing that of the eighth and seventh floors. The dazzling green pierced the sky, making it clearly visible throughout the entire Hidden Dragon Academy territory.

inside the hospital,

Countless people looked up abruptly, staring in astonishment at the direction of the Hidden Dragon Tower.

"what is that?"

Many disciples within the academy, including nobles and princesses, were stunned.

At the foot of the Hidden Dragon Tower, dozens or even hundreds of prodigies from the Hidden Dragon Academy gathered there, all showing expressions of disbelief as they looked up at the towering structure and the dazzling green light emanating from its top.

"Passed?"

"The ninth floor?! That's impossible!"

Everyone was in an uproar.

Meng Zhan, Bai Qiulan, and the others all showed expressions of astonishment and shock.

Xue Lin stared blankly at the green light on the ninth floor of the Hidden Dragon Tower. He felt as if that dazzling green light occupied his entire field of vision, filling his eyes with that emerald green.

"This……"

He stood there stunned, feeling no shock, only a sense of bewilderment.

He, a prodigy of his generation, came to the Hidden Dragon Academy, thinking it would be the beginning of his dominance over the world. However, he never expected that Yin Kun and Gu Liufeng would make him successively submit to them.

After a difficult and arduous climb, he seemed to have caught up with Gu Liufeng a little, but the distance between them was immediately widened again.

This is not a big deal.

Wu Ming's appearance was what bewildered him the most, because Wu Ming was admitted to the hospital later than him. Two years ago, when they sparred on the island in the middle of the lake, their strength was still on par with each other. Two years later, he finally managed to pass the seventh floor of the Hidden Dragon Tower, but Wu Ming, right in front of him, made great strides and passed the seventh floor, the eighth floor, and even the final ninth floor!
The surrounding noise and exclamations sounded like a jumble of noise to Xue Lin's ears.

at last.

He silently turned around, picked up his spear, and disappeared without a sound.

"Amazing, amazing... For our generation to produce someone like this is truly..."

Bai Qiulan was shocked, her eyes filled with admiration.

"Indeed unexpected."

Gu Liufeng's smile faded considerably, and he uttered this sentence in silence, but soon he smiled again.

Wu Ming's breakthrough to the ninth level was indeed beyond his expectations and surpassed him, the senior brother of the martial arts academy. However, a victory or defeat at this moment is not a victory or defeat for life, and he will not stop here. He has already comprehended the rudimentary form of martial intent and still has a great chance to enter the cultivation holy land of the Great Jin Dynasty. In the future, he may be able to compete with Wu Ming again in the cultivation holy land.

……

After watching the light of the array on the ninth floor gradually recede, Wu Ming calmed his surging soul power and slowly walked down the steps, step by step, until he reached the bottom of the tower.

When he emerged from the tower, the first thing he saw were two dignified and familiar faces.

Gao Yuanheng, the head of the Martial Arts Academy.

Meng Huaizhen, the abbot of the Taoist temple.

As the only person in the Yong Kingdom's history to break through the ninth level of the Hidden Dragon Tower, it was not surprising that the two academy masters came in person. Wu Ming remained calm and bowed to the two of them.

"Master."

"No need for formalities, hahaha."

Meng Huaizhen stepped forward with a hearty laugh, looking Wu Ming up and down with satisfaction in his eyes. He said, "You are the first person in a thousand years to pass the ninth level. Come on, let me take you to meet our king."
