Towards the Path of Heaven
Chapter 230

Hearing Mu Gong's words, the surrounding disciples were all stunned. The compaction of Mu Gong's spirit runes was within their expectations, but could Yan Chutian also condense spirit runes?

But so what if he condensed spirit runes? How could only one be compared to two of Mu Gong's spirit runes?

As they were perplexed, Yan Chutian gave them an answer.

Looking at Mu Gong's spirit expression, Yan Chutian replied slowly, "Lit up to you."

Following which, sword spirit runes and cauldrons gradually formed in Yan Chutian's eyes. Then, under the astonished gazes of the crowd, they were projected between heaven and earth.

Two spirit runes appeared above Yan Chutian's head, causing the expressions of the originally confused geniuses to change abruptly. Then, deep expressions of disbelief appeared on their faces.

Just now, they thought that Yan Chutian was an outstanding formation genius, who had caught the attention of Mu Gong.

But at this moment, the other party was actually displaying two spirit runes at the same time. He was only at the third level, but he had actually condensed two spirit runes. How is this possible?!

The scene before them completely shocked them to the point that they were speechless. Although they were also geniuses, at the third level, being able to condense one spirit rune was the limit, let alone condense two spirit runes.

Therefore, at this moment, when compared to Yan Chutian, these geniuses were inevitably embarrassed. When they thought of the achievement of the astonishing formation the other party had just displayed, the shame on their faces became even stronger.

They truly did not believe that someone with such great achievements in formations could be so outstanding in cultivation. It was at that moment that they gradually understood Mu Gongs true feelings.

But of course, it could only be said that they gradually understood. After all, they would never know that Yan Chutian had condensed more than two spirit runes.

Seeing the two familiar spirit runes appearing above Yan Chutian's head, Mu Gong did not hesitate anymore. He immediately manipulated his own spirit runes, exuded a terrifying spirit rune aura, and suppressed them forcefully.

However, how could Yan Chutian be weaker than the others in terms of spirit runes? Therefore, the outcome of the clash was destined for a draw.

However, even if they were evenly matched, it was enough to convince the geniuses around him. This proved that the spirit runes solidified by Yan Chutian were genuine and not fake.

Mu Gong seemed to be expecting such a result, so there was not much change to his expression.

However, after he took out his two spirit runes, a more serious expression appeared on his face.

Mu Gong said nothing. He only closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, a dark light that had never appeared appeared in his eyes.

The dim light kept changing. The moment it changed, many strange runes appeared and merged into one according to some sort of strange charm.

In a few short breaths, a circular lightning bead was formed. The lightning bead was surrounded by a flickering arc of lightning. Even in Mu Gong's eyes, it was enough to make one's heart pound.

Needless to say, when this Pearl of Lightning appeared in the world, what kind of fear might it emit!

"This …"

Some of the geniuses around him exclaimed. Those who could be called geniuses naturally knew their items. Therefore, the cry sounded again.

"This ... third spirit rune!"

"As expected, how could a top genius of the Daluo Sect not condense the third spirit rune?"

As they exclaimed, many of them looked at Yan Chutian with sympathy or overbearing eyes. In their opinion, no matter how amazing Yan Chutian looked, he would not have such an opportunity under Mu Gong's third spirit rune.

The Elixir Realm can condense a total of nine spirit runes. Although condensing five or more would allow one to enter the Yuanying Realm, the more spirit runes one could solidify, the better.

This was because it was not only a symbol of one's talent, but was also the foundation of the Yuanying Realm. Some geniuses were able to fight above their level not only because of their outstanding spiritual skills, but also because of their foundation.

It was no exaggeration to say that even if they had the same cultivation level, as long as one could condense one more spiritual rune before entering the Yuanying Realm, he would be able to completely suppress his opponent.

Therefore, when they saw Mu Gong's third spirit rune, they already thought that Mu Gong's victory was certain.

"After condensing the third spirit rune, Mu Gong will definitely win!"

"By the way, what a pity. If the disciples of the Tuanji Sect cultivated longer and the cultivation level was higher, it might be able to condense third spirit runes. When the time comes, the situation may be reversed."

"You can't say that. When the time comes, Mu Gong will definitely become stronger, and the Tianji Sect disciples will be left behind for the rest of their lives."

No matter what these voices meant, their opinions were clearly the same. That is, Yan Chutian will definitely lose.

But is the result really like that?

Looking at the domineering lightning bead that appeared in the sky, Yan Chutian more or less expected such a scene. Indeed, everything still depended on the third spirit rune to determine the winner!

Having already reached this stage, Yan Chutian naturally did not hesitate. He also closed his eyes, and a third spirit rune that he still could not understand was forced out of his dantian.

The first thing that appeared in front of everyone was a huge fireball. Then, a four-legged giant beast surrounded by flames emerged from the flames.

However, even though the giant beast was extremely large, no one could see its appearance clearly. Although the flames surrounding him were different, the entire giant beast seemed to have become an illusion.

Even Yan Chutian's Spiritual Eye could do nothing about this illusory state, let alone the perception of Spiritual Energy or their naked eye.

However, even so, it did not deter them from sensing the rich power of the spirit runes from the gigantic beast.

However, it was because of this that the confident expressions of these geniuses once again changed drastically. They did not believe that the beast that appeared before them was actually a spirit rune beast. In other words, this was Yan Chutian's third spirit rune?

However, how is this possible? How could the third level Elixir Realm condense three spirit runes? Could he possibly be challenging heaven ?!

In an instant, the expressions of these geniuses kept changing, especially those who had just spoken. Their faces were green and white, and they were extremely embarrassed.

Obviously, everything should be as they expected. However, the real situation would reverse their expectations at any moment. It's like a slap in their face, and they can't resist.

It was because they were the ones fighting to get their faces beaten!

However, even so, there were still some geniuses who stubbornly refused to believe it. Gritting their teeth, they said, "This is just a trick. How can the third level Elixir Realm condense three spirit runes ?!"

"That's all an illusion. Under Mu Gongs third spirit rune, it would definitely collapse!"

Their gazes turned to Mu Gong. He naturally would not doubt Yan Chutian, as he had seen the scene before him during the fight for the Spirit Fruit.

However, he never expected their confrontation to go down so quickly!

Immediately after, without a word, the two spiritual runes collided with loud explosions under the gazes of the crowd.

A ferocious beast and a bead, emitting their own strength, collided fiercely with each other.

Perhaps Mu Gong had enough confidence to win against the others, but against Yan Chutian, all of his confidence was not enough to guarantee victory.

The third spirit rune had never disappointed Yan Chutian. Even today, it's the same. This mysterious spirit rune fire beast broke through the lightning screen that was solidified by the lightning bead almost instantly. Then, he opened his bloody mouth and directly bit the bead.

After biting it, no matter how the thunder bead exploded with lightning, it had no effect on the fire beast. In the end, the aura of the thunder bead continued to weaken. Mu Gong, who was connected to him, instantly trembled, and a look of shock and pain appeared on his face.

Although he knew that the other party had also condensed third spirit runes, Mu Gong had never imagined that he would be no match for the third spirit rune.
